Musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) are a major cause of disability worldwide, and two conditions that are major contributors to the overall burden of MSDs are fractures and osteoarthritis (OA). The Swedish Health and Medical Services Act (HSL 2017:30) states that the goal of all health care services is good health and health care on equal terms for the entire population. However, there exists a well

Production of fish meal and plant-based feed proteins continues to increase to meet the growing demand for seafood, leading to impacts on marine and terrestrial ecosystems. Microbial proteins such as single-cell proteins (SCPs) have been introduced as feed alternatives since they can replace current fish feed ingredients, e.g., soybean, which are associated with negative environmental impacts. Mic

OBJECTIVE: Most earlier studies on occupational risk of COVID-19 covering the entire workforce are based on relatively rare outcomes such as hospital admission and mortality.

Wheat bran, a major by-product of wheat processing, contains several valuable components that can serve as a potential feedstock for chemical production. This study presents a multiple-stage fractionation method, involving steam explosion and hydrotropic extraction, which were investigated with the goal of separating the main structural bran components: starch, protein, hemicelluloses, lignin, and

Expansion of extracellular matrix occurs in all stages of pulmonary angiopathy associated with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). In systemic arteries, dysregulation and accumulation of the large chondroitin-sulfate proteoglycan aggrecan is associated with swelling and disruption of vessel wall homeostasis. Whether aggrecan is present in pulmonary arteries, and its potential roles in PAH, has

Flimmer, eller närmare bestämt temporal ljusmodulering (TLM), har återigen blivit ett problem i samband med införandet av LED-baserad belysningsteknik. TLM, dvs. variationer i ljusintensiteten över tiden, kan ha en negativ inverkan på människors hälsa och orsaka irritation, huvudvärk, ögonbesvär och migrän. Förutom det onödiga lidande som TLM orsakar för enskilda personer utgör de negativa konsekv

This chapter strikes a bridge from current-day imaginations to pre-modern concepts of empire. It shows how, on the one hand, modern visions of empire are echoing political and religious notions of an all-encompassing rule that go back to Antiquity. On the other hand, it stresses how such modern conceptualizations tend to fall short on understanding diversity in a world where state penetration and
