DNA methylation could shape phenotypic responses to environmental cues and underlie developmental plasticity. Environmentally induced changes in DNA methylation during development can give rise to stable phenotypic traits and thus affect fitness. In the laboratory, it has been shown that the vertebrate methylome undergoes dynamic reprogramming during development, creating a critical window for env

September 2015 saw a sharp increase in the influx of refugees in the Øresund region. In this study, resilience defined as flexible adaptation was taken as a baseline to guide interviews with societal infrastructure actors and NGOs engaged in managing the situation. Different actors had different organisational preconditions that influenced their ability to adapt to the new situation. Among the str

PurposeThe purpose of this commentary paper is to analyze the burst of joy experienced by global football fans when England lost the final match during the Euro 2020 against Italy.Design/methodology/approachThe author worked with netnography (Internet ethnography), gathering material from the internet.FindingsThe author would consider the emotional explosion as a creative expression that was possi

Introduction and hypothesis: The aim of this study was to compare the long-term subjective outcomes of an adjustable single-incision sling (Ajust®) vs standard mid-urethral slings (SMUS) for the treatment of women with stress urinary incontinence. Methods: This study was designed as a multicenter prospective randomized trial. Women under 60 years old with objectively verified stress urinary incont

Introduction: Community Case Management (CCM) aims to improve health outcomes among children under five with malaria, diarrhea, and pneumonia, but its effectiveness in Malawi is limited by inconsistent standards of delivery characteristic of paper-based interventions. This may lead to negative impacts on child health outcomes and inefficient use of health system resources. This study evaluated the

Phenotypic modulation of smooth muscle cells (SMCs) plays a key role in vascular disease, including atherosclerosis. Several transcription factors have been suggested to regulate phenotypic modulation of SMCs but the decisive mechanisms remain unknown. Recent reports suggest that specific microRNAs (miRNAs) are involved in SMC differentiation and vascular disease but the global role of miRNAs in p

Objective: To study the impact of common noncomposite disease activity measures on sick leave in biologics-treated patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Methods: Data from study visits by biologics-treated RA patients of working age (<65 years) in the observational South Swedish Arthritis Treatment Group Register between 2005 and 2011, were included (5,118 visits by 941 patients). We performed

Antimicrobial resistance is one of the largest threats to global health. In society as well as in healthcare facilities, antimicrobial resistance is rapidly increasing with the main reason being overuse and misuse of antibiotics combined with inadequate infection prevention. For humans, dental care accounts for about 10% of all antibiotic prescriptions, making it an important target for antibiotic

OBJECTIVE: To systematically evaluate timely reporting of clinical trial results at medical universities and university hospitals in the Nordic countries.STUDY DESIGN AND SETTING: In this cross-sectional study, we included trials (regardless of intervention) registered in the EU Clinical Trials Registry and/or ClinicalTrials.gov, completed 2016-2019, and led by a university with medical faculty or

BackgroundViolence is a major public health concern with a significant impact on the health and well-being of individuals, families, and communities. Living in a new environment without parental control and experimenting with new lifestyles may increase the risk of violence among university students. Therefore, this study aimed to assess exposure to violence and its associated factors among univerBackgroundViolence is a major public health concern with a significant impact on the health and well-being of individuals, families, and communities.

We review the petrochemical industry from a joint macro, credit specialist and climate mitigation perspective. The sector carries clear relevance for bond investors, with many of the biggest petrochemical producers also being large debt issuers and being actively traded in credit portfolios. Out of the top 30 global petrochemical producers, 20 are actively traded in hard currency bond markets, and

A global energy transition requires alternatives to fossil fuels in energy-intensive industries and transport sectors, which are particularly reliant on the unique material properties of fossil fuels as fuel and as feedstock. Renewable energy transitions, therefore, demand large-scale investments in green hydrogen to produce substitutes as a means of indirect electrification. In the context of Eur

Terrestrial ecosystems regulate climate by absorbing about one-third of anthropogenic CO2 emissions. Monitoring carbon, water, and energy fluxes is essential for understanding ecosystem responses to climate change. However, existing flux datasets lack sufficient spatial resolution and consistency needed for fragmented landscapes like UK agricultural areas. This study presents the Unified FLUXes (U

With the urgent need to address climate change, it is critical to confront fossil fuel dependency, particularly in the Global North. This requires confronting the spatio-cultural dimensions of fossil fuels, including how they have become embedded in those locations most closely tied to the fossil fuel industry. This article integrates insights from energy geographies with Hein's concept of petrole

In humans, resting cerebral perfusion, oxygen consumption and energy metabolism demonstrate large intersubject variation regardless of methodology. Whether a similar large variation is also present longitudinally in individual subjects is much less studied, but knowing the time variance in reproducibility is important when designing and interpreting longitudinal follow-up studies examining brain p

Background: Human reproduction follows a seasonal pattern with respect to spontaneous conception, a phenomenon wherein the effect of meteorological fluctuations might not be unique. However, the effect of seasonal variations on patients who underwent in vitro fertilization (IVF) treatment is unclear. We aimed to evaluate the effects of meteorological variation on the pregnancy rate in a cohort und
