As snow leopards (Panthera uncia) are vulnerable in the wild, individuals in captivity function as a backup for the wild population. However, space limitations make it difficult to keep the captive population healthy. To maintain high genetic diversity in the captive population, it is important to carefully consider breeding recommendations and the use of contraception. This study examined age-rel

Trichoderma are fungi that form symbiotic relationships with plant roots, representing an ecological topic for pest management. It offers a sustainable alternative to agrochemicals through biostimulation and biocontrol. However, the host plant needs to effectively manage a trade-off : using Trichoderma as a defense mechanism while not getting damaged by its cytotoxic compounds, like the antibiotic

Sammanfattning av Kapitel IV:Detta kapitel handlar om att kombinera Pre-kirurgisk strålbehandling och hypertermi (värmebehandling) med fokus på immunologiska effekter. Hypertermi (HT ca 41–44 °C) gör tumörceller mer känsliga för strålning (RT). Kliniska studier visar bättre respons och fler kompletta remissioner med kombinationen RT+HT jämfört med enbart strålning (RT) utan att öka allvarliga bive

Amyloid-β (Aβ) accumulation is a hallmark of Alzheimer’s disease. Cerebral Aβ deposition is attenuated by a functional glymphatic system, in which perivascular entry of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and its exchange with interstitial fluid mediate solute clearance. Parenchymal border macrophages (PBMs), positioned along glymphatic pathways, are emerging as important players for glymphatic clearance. H

In the New Testament gospel accounts of the empty tomb, there is a strong emphasis on vision and sight. This emphasis is at times understood as a reference to the role of eyewitnesses and their testimonies in the formation of the gospel tradition. This study, however, reads the visual elements of the texts as part of their poetics, as part of their narrative and rhetorical setting.By looking at ei

Exposure to engineered nanomaterials (ENMs) at the workplace can adversely affect human health via inhalation. Occupational exposure limits (OELs) for specific ENMs remain scarce due to a lack of nano-specific data and consensus on the most appropriate dose metric for exposure assessment. In 2022, recommendations were provided on how to derive Health-based Nano Reference Values (HNRVs) for differe

Background: The incidence, aetiology, and outcome of unplanned intensive care unit admission after elective colon cancer surgery remain unclear. This study investigated the incidence of, and factors associated with, unplanned intensive care unit admission following elective colon cancer resection in Sweden. Methods: This nationwide retrospective registry study included adult patients undergoing el

The average build year for existing multi-family buildings in Sweden is1959, circa 95 % of building built before 1960 uses natural ventilation and circa 45 % of these have failed the obligatory ventilation control that exists in Sweden. In the EU buildings stand for 30 % of the total energy usage and the aim is to get buildings to a near zero energy building. The aim of this thesis is therefore to

Following the outbreak of new media technologies, researchers in museum studies have acknowledged the increasing importance of digital content creation for museums. Today, Social Media provides museums with the opportunity to engage with their audiences beyond museum walls and pursue their organizational mission in innovative ways. Despite a growing interest in the organizational changes that make

This book offers a thought-provoking defence of social science -and particularly the discipline of sociology -and its relevance for 21st-century challenges to democratic societies. The author shows how social science holds a unique and critical role: namely, to act as modernity’s critical conscience by scrutinizing power relations and unmasking attempts to trivialize social reality. They do so by

Klima is a carbon-backed cryptocurrency running as a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO). In 2021, it had accumulated 9 million metric tons of digital carbon credits and reached a market value of more than US$1 billion. In 2023, its treasury stored twice as many carbon credits, but its spot price was a tiny fraction compared to 2021. Building on prior scholarship at the intersection of car

Background: Research on the primary care management of back pain in children and young people (CYP) is scarce. Sociodemographic factors may influence presentation and management, potentially contributing to disparities in care and outcomes. This study aimed to describe the management of back pain in CYP and examine associations with sociodemographic characteristics. Methods: Data were extracted fr
