Some semelparous species show terminal investment by suicidal offspring provisioning. This requires internal cellular disintegration for the production of regurgitated food and in preparation for the sacrifice of the female body to the offspring, however, we have limited insights into the extent and costs of such physiological modifications. Extreme provisioning is hypothesized to be limited to re
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disease that is generally thought to be caused by multiple factors, including environmental and genetic factors. Emerging evidence suggests that intestinal disturbances, such as constipation, are common non-motor symptoms of PD. Gut inflammation may be closely associated with pathogenesis in PD. This review aims to discuss the cross-talk between gut
Birds are a wonderfully diverse and accessible clade with an exceptional range of ecologies and behaviors, making the study of the avian major histocompatibility complex (MHC) of great interest. In the last 20 years, particularly with the advent of high-throughput sequencing, the avian MHC has been explored in great depth in several dimensions: its ability to explain ecological patterns in nature,
Electronic publishing and institutional archives – a scholarship report from CaliforniaIn June 2005 Linda Gustafsson and Kristina Lindgren had the opportunity to make a one week visit to the library at Caltech University, Pasadena in California. The aim was to see how the library staff worked with e-publishing together with the researchers at the campus. As researchers are an important user group
I det här kapitlet spelar diakonen Nestor Sundins beskrivning av sin tid som "ödemarksdiakon" under 1920-talet en viktig roll. Detta material kompletteras av diakonissan Inga-Karin Olssons mer kortfattade rapport till sin uppdragsgivare, Diakonirådet i Nyköping från1961. Efter en historisk bakgrund och en nulägesbeskrivning av gruppen diakoner relateras detta till professionsteori.
Med hjälp av begreppet omsorgsrationalitet undersöker författaren några beskrivna församlingsdiakonala praktiker.
Magdalena Dziaczkowska analyzes the process of drafting of the Nostra Aetate (1965), the declaration on the relation of the Church with non-Christian Religions of the Second Vatican Council. Her interest focuses particularly on the Jewish contributions to this document.
BACKGROUND: Cerebral palsy (CP) is one of the most common early onset disabilities globally. The causative brain damage in CP is nonprogressive, yet secondary conditions develop and worsen over time. Individuals with CP in Sweden and most of the Nordic countries are systematically followed in the national registry and follow-up program entitled the Cerebral Palsy Follow-Up Program (CPUP). CPUP has
Study of the reception of Ingmar Bergman's film Shame (1968) and the ensuing debate about the relation of the film to the ongoing Vietnam war.
Study of the film adaptation of Laurence Sternes Tristram Shandy: Michael Winterbottoms A Cock and Bull Story.
Even when the editor of the popular journal Populär Arkeologi claims to be communicating the latest advances in archaeological research to the public and that the authors often are professional archaeologists, this is done very rarely and focuses mostly on dating and artifacts. Is it the editor’s responsibility or must the archaeologists themselves highlight these issues in their articles? Common
The transport and distribution of charged molecules in polyelectrolyte solutions are of both fundamental and practical importance. A practical example, which is the specific subject addressed in the present paper, is the transport and distribution of charged species into cartilage. The charged species could be a contrast agent or a drug molecule involved in diagnosis or treatment of the widespread
Introduction: The objective of this study was to assess the usefulness of the appropriate use criteria (AUC) for amyloid imaging in an unselected cohort. Methods: We calculated sensitivity and specificity of appropriate use (increased confidence and management change), as defined by Amyloid Imaging Taskforce in the AUC, and other clinical utility outcomes. Furthermore, we compared differences in p
