Popular Abstract in Swedish Brosk bekläder våra leder och förser dem med en slät yta vilket förhindrar en direkt ben mot ben kontakt. Det fungerar också som stötdämpare i belastade leder och ger glidytan mycket låg friktion. Vatten hålls kvar i broskets matrix på grund av den negativt laddade proteogykanen Aggrecan vilken i sin tur hålls kvar i ett nätverk av kollagenfibrer. När en led belastas prThe cartilage matrix is made up of a fibrillar meshwork comprising type II collagen and other associated proteins. One main function of this network is to retain the large aggregating proteoglycan, aggrecan, a vital component in the regulation of fluid flux in cartilage. In disease such as osteoarthritis, the breakdown of the collagen network appears to be the final step in destruction of cartilag

A survey of the ecclesiastical institutions and their property, especially the land that belonged to the church in Medieval Tønsberg.

Personalised memorials often provoke a process of formalisation. As motives behind the development of a proper place of death we may find given social, cultural, religious or aesthetic structures. However, I propose there are hidden motives for these value judgements other than aestheticism, religiosity or cultural authenticity. Even if, as Åkesson describes it, personalised memorials may serve as

Previous studies have shown that police assaults reduce trust in the police among the group affected by the incidents. As the phenomenon of plural policing emerges and the actors in policing become intertwined, blurring the boundaries between them, analysis of the impact of security guards’ actions becomes warranted. This paper investigates the impact of two security guard incidents on trust in th

Welcome to the fifth edition of the REWBAH workshop, a satellite event of the IEEE International Requirements Engineering Conference (RE). The REWBAH workshop fosters discussion related to requirements engineering resulting from the need to build software systems that not only support healthcare, but also promote well-being, encourage patients and the population in general to live according to hea

The uneven burden of climate-related losses and damages and its implications for equity and social justice are receiving growing attention in science and policy. Smallholder farmers, indigenous groups, and ethnic minorities are often identified as particularly vulnerable and likely to experience a greater burden of climate-related loss and damage. However, limited attention has been paid to experi

Background: In recent years, fighting arts (e.g., Karate, Judo, Jujitsu, Boxe) have gained broader attention due to their multiple benefits, involving both physical and psychological enhancements for practitioners. Despite that, studies revolving around specific psychological characteristics such as personality traits are scarce. This study explored potential connections between the personality tr

The integration of functional materials into electronic devices has become a key approach to extending Moore’s law by increasing the functional density of electronic circuits. Here, we present a device technology based on ultrascaled ferroelectric, antiambipolar transistors (ferro-AAT) with robust negative transconductance, enabling a wide range of reconfigurable functionalities with applications

Biological treatment processes at low or neutral pH are ineffective for gold mine wastewater treatment. The aim of this study was to develop a new cyanide-rich gold mine wastewater treatment system using alkaliphilic microbial consortia from the Ethiopian Rift Valley soda lake, Lake Chitu. The treatment setup incorporates aerobic and anoxic reactors connected in series and operated for about 200 t

Background: The management of patients with slipped capital femoral epiphysis (SCFE) requires imaging diagnostics of good quality and accurate measurement of the degree of slippage. In Sweden, three different radiological methods are commonly used: the calcar femorale method; the Billing method; and the Head-shaft angle described by Southwick. Purpose: To evaluate whether any of the three most com

Background In adults with serious respiratory illness, breathlessness is prevalent and associated with reduced health-related quality of life. The aim of this review was to assess the impact of breathing techniques on breathlessness in adults with serious respiratory illness. Methods Electronic databases were searched to identify randomised controlled trials testing breathing techniques (technique

The International Human Papillomavirus (HPV) Reference Center launches annual global HPV genotyping proficiency panels to enhance the precision and international standardization of HPV genotyping services. This study aims to assess the proficiency levels achieved in the global HPV genotyping proficiency panels conducted in 2022 and 2023, and to evaluate trends in performance over time. The profici
