A method of diagnosing, predicting, or prognosticating about a disease that includes obtaining experimental data, wherein the experimental data is high dimensional data, filtering the data, reducing the dimensionality of the data through use of one or more methods, training a supervised pattern recognition method, ranking individual data points from the data, wherein the ranking is dependent on th

What are the consequences of a severe health shock like an influenza pandemic on fertility? Using rich administrative data and a difference-in-differences approach, we evaluate fertility responses to the 1918–19 influenza pandemic in Sweden. We find evidence of a small baby boom following the end of the pandemic, but we show that this effect is second-order compared to a strong long-term negative

A method of diagnosing a disease that includes obtaining experimental data on gene selections. The gene selection functions to characterize a cancer when the expression of that gene selection is compared to the identical selection from a noncancerous cell or a different type of cancer cell. The invention also includes a method of targeting at least one product of a gene that includes administratio

Ljungan virus (LV), a Parechovirus of the Picornavirus family, first isolated from a bank vole at the Ljungan river in Sweden, has been implicated in the risk for autoimmune type 1 diabetes. An assay for neutralizing Ljungan virus antibodies (NLVA) was developed using the original 87-012 LV isolate. The goal was to determine NLVA titres in incident 0-18 years old newly diagnosed type 1 diabetes pa

BackgroundCancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) comprise a heterogeneous population of stromal cells within the tumour microenvironment. CAFs exhibit both tumour-promoting and tumour-suppressing functions, making them exciting targets for improving cancer treatments. Careful isolation, identification, and characterisation of CAF heterogeneity is thus necessary for ex vivo validation and future impl

When semiotics of architectural space turns from an interest in the visual revelation of a space “hidden” behind city plans or types of building facades, and focuses more on the socio-logical or narrato-logical interaction between humans, rules and matter, the subject of investigation (i.e. space) consequently turns more corporeal, more situation-based, and more political. In his philosophy of spa

Two key challenges for governing and managing critical infrastructure risk and resilience are interdependencies between infrastructures and the multi-actor setting in which they operate. This paper looks beyond the Critical Infrastructure (CI) field of research to identify and discuss cross-disciplinary approaches to address these challenges. It explores two related and slightly overlapping resear

AbstractDe senaste årtiondena så har shoppingens geografiska manifestationer förändrats i grunden. Den förmodade ”döden” som har förutspåtts för shopping i stadskärnor har blivit alltmer angeläget. Vetenskapliga studier har undersökt de sociala, kulturella och ekonomiska orsakerna till shoppingens decentralisering och dess effekter på stadslivet. Få studier har dock hittills fokuserat på den föränDuring recent decades, shopping’s geographical manifestations have altered radically and the presumed ‘death’ of town centre retailing has become a public concern. The social, cultural, and economic backgrounds of this decentralisation of retail and its effects on city life have been studied comprehensively. However, to date, few studies have examined the changing dynamics of non-mainstream shoppi

The Volgo-Uralia segment, which constitutes one fourth of the East European Craton, is covered by sedimentary deposits. From geophysical studies and examination of thousands of drillcores, Volgo-Uralia has been recognised as a vast high-grade terrain with a complex crustal history extending from the Palaeoarchaean to the Palaeoproterozoic. Our recent studies are focused on the search for the oldes

New digital food platforms are being launched accompanied with the promise of also promoting more sustainable food consumption. However, despite some success, many of these efforts to digitally reconfigure consumers food practices fail. The aim of this paper is to empirically explore, conceptualize and explain such failures. Taking a practice theory approach, and drawing on a field experiment usin
