We face closely intertwined crises related to biodiversity, climate change, global health andinequality. Unfortunately, the knowledge that could help overcome these existential crises isscattered across millions of scientific articles, reports, policy documents, databases, andindividual datasets, far exceeding human processing capabilities. This hinders evidence-basedresearch, innovation and polic
Aggressive tumours are defined by microenvironmental stress adaptation and metabolic reprogramming. Within this niche, lipid droplet accumulation has emerged as a key strategy to buffer toxic lipids and suppress ferroptosis. Lipid droplet formation can occur via de novo lipogenesis or extracellular lipid-scavenging. However, how tumour cells coordinate these processes remains poorly understood. He
New radiative lifetimes of 18 levels (energy range between 30 000 cm(-1)) and 39 000 cm(-1), in Ce II have been measured using the time-resolved laser-induced fluorescence method. A tunable frequency-doubled dye laser with I ns pulse duration was used to excite selectively singly ionized cerium in a laser-produced plasma The experimental results are compared with theoretical data and the agreement
This update of the Landsteiner-Wiener (LW) blood group system (Grandstaff Moulds MK. The LW blood group system: a review. Immunohematology 2011;27:136-42. Storry JR. Review: the LW blood group system. Immunohematology 1992;8:87-93) reports new information on the distribution of genetic variants in ICAM4 and reviews the complex serologic identification of the high-prevalence LWEM antigen. The role
In blood from the portal vein of anaesthetized rats the levels of histamine and putrescine were 2-3-fold lower compared to arterial blood. Putrescine concentration was increased severalfold and the difference between portal and arterial blood abolished in animals pretreated with the specific diamine oxidase inhibitor aminoguanidine. Histamine concentration was 40% lower in portal compared to arter
Loss and Damage (L&D) has been the subject of contentious debate in international climate policy for several decades. Recently, formal mechanisms on L&D have been established, but arguably through unclear language. This ambiguity is politically important, but researchers and practitioners require clearer understandings of L&D. Here we report on the first in-depth empirical study of act
The intestinal surface is daily challenged with tremendous amount of foreign material derived our diet and from the commensal bacteria that densely populate the mucosal surface. Occasionally the gut mucosa is exposed to pathogens trying to enter our body. The important task of the intestinal immune system is to remain tolerant toward innocuous luminal constituents and to elicit defense responses t
Some of the most significant challenges in paleoclimate research arise from the need to both understand and reduce the uncertainty associated with proxies for climate reconstructions. These challenges were further highlighted in connection with the IODP Exp.347 Baltic Sea Paleoenvironment. We have investigated temperature and salinity proxies through a combination of field-and culture-based benthi
The aim of this workshop was to assess the ability of individual autoantibody (ab) assays and their use in combination to discriminate between type 1 diabetic and control sera. Coded aliquots of sera were measured in a total of 119 assays by 49 participating laboratories in 17 countries. The sera were from 51 patients with new onset type 1 diabetes and 101 healthy control subjects with no family h
Quantifying the ways in which local particle rearrangements contribute to macroscopic plasticity is one of the fundamental pursuits of granular mechanics and soft matter physics. Here we examine local rearrangements that occur naturally during the deformation of three samples of 3D granular materials subjected to distinct boundary conditions by employing in situ x-ray measurements of particle-reso
Background and aims: The aim of the study was to determine potential associations between endothelial dysfunction and arterial stiffness, measured by peripheral arterial tonometry, and coronary artery calcium score (CACS) assessed by computed tomography (CT). Methods and results: The BIG3 study is a prospective longitudinal, non-interventional, pulmonary-cardiovascular cohort study exploring the t
BACKGROUND: Chemotherapy drug distribution varies greatly among individual patients. Therefore, we developed an individualised fluorouracil, epirubicin, cyclophosphamide (FEC) regimen to improve outcomes in patients with high-risk early breast cancer. We then did a randomised trial to compare this individually tailored FEC regimen with conventional adjuvant chemotherapy followed by consolidation w
The refusal to shake hands with a female reporter by a Muslim politician from the Miljöpartiet resulted in a controversy in Sweden. Together with a number of court cases, it revealed a disparity between the established judicial line and the views of the general public. The Swedish controversy received a response from Denmark, where the ruling coalition introduced new citizenship legislation with a
We studied the effect of the human diving response, defined as bradycardia and reduced peripheral blood flow, on arterial hemoglobin desaturation. We induced a diving response of different magnitudes by using apnea in air and apnea with face immersion. Each of 21 subjects performed five apneas in air and five apneas with face immersion in 10 degrees C water. Periods of apnea in both conditions wer
Concerns have been raised regarding a potentially increased risk of cancer associated with treatment with glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists. Here, we explored whether fasting and oral glucose tolerance test post-challenge glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide (GIP) and GLP-1 levels were associated with incident first cancer. Within the cardiovascular re-examination arm of the po
För att svara på frågan -Hur värderas en flygplats? har vi utvecklat en värderingsmodell för flygplatser som kan användas utifrån olika former av ägandeperspektiv. Faktum är att det är svårt att på ett generellt sätt bestämma hur en företagsvärdering skall utföras. Beroende på intressentens särskilda situation och unika perspektiv präglas företagets värde av en subjektivitet, och det finns härmed
Syftet är att beskriva och analysera redovisning av det intellektuella kapitalet i kunskapsintensiva företag, för att se om det förekommer likheter/skillnader inom och mellan företag. Vår beskrivning sträcker sig över en period på tio år. Vi har använt oss av litteratur som beskriver och förklarar intellektuellt kapital och för detta ämne viktiga begrepp som human-, struktur- och kundkapital. Dett
