The Food and Agricultural Organization of the United Nations estimates that as many as 840 million people are undernourished, most of them living in developing countries. Meanwhile many parties are looking to improve and create new plant varieties that gain greater yields, increased nutritional values, and other beneficial traits. These new plant varieties can gain protection by the international
Den rådande och även allmänt kända teorin för Universums uppkomst kallas Big Bang-teorin. Big Bang tros ha inträffat för cirka 13,8 miljarder år sedan och beskriver en tid när vårt Universum befann sig i ett mycket varmt och energitätt tillstånd, som snabbt kyldes ner för att bilda de första lätta atomkärnorna bara några minuter in i sitt unga liv. Även om det tog ytterligare 100 miljoner år förPrevious studies of two-particle correlation in proton-lead (pPb) collisions at \sqrt{s} = 5.02 TeV revealed a so-called double ridge structure similar to the one observed in lead-lead (PbPb) collisions. This structure features two distinct ridges extending over the entire \deta range (long-range correlations) at \Delta\phi \approx 0 (near-side) and \Delta\phi \approx \pi (away-side). A model base

Piratverksamhet är inte speciellt uppmärksammat i västvärlden – media lyfter inte upp det och det är heller inte en speciellt prioriterad punkt på politikernas agenda. Det betyder dock inte att det inte är ett stort problem. Det påverkar många, både känslomässigt och ekonomiskt, på en individnivå men också på en nationell, regional och global nivå. Problemet är komplext och har en lång historia,Piracy is not given very much attention in the western part of the world – there is not many news about it in the medias, and it is not very high prioritized on the politicians’ agenda. However, this does not indicate that it is not a problem. Piracy affects many people, at an individual level as well as at a national, regional and global level. The problem is complex and has long history, not le
Huvudregeln gällande en stats brukande av våld framgår av artikel 2(4) i Förenta nationernas stadga. Av artikeln så framgår ett förbud för såväl hot som bruk av våld. Då det görs i syfte att inskränka en annan stats politiska oberoende eller territoriella integritet. Till detta så förbjuds även sådana hot eller bruk av våld som kan anses vara oförenligt med Förenta nationernas värdegrund. Av artikArticle 2(4) of the Charter of the United Nations presents the general rule regarding states use of force in international relations. The article states that all members are obliged to refrain from threat or use of force against another member states political independence or territorial integrity. Additionally, actions of threats or use of force that are in violation of the purposes of the United
Aluminum (Al), as a carbon-free energy source, features favorable characteristics regarding its production, transportation, utilization, and recyclability. The combustion of single Al particles mainly occurs as a vapor-phase diffusion flame, wherein the gas-phase combustion kinetics plays an important role. However, the understanding of the kinetics is still limited and rate constants for the same
Popular Abstract in Swedish Benmärgstransplantation är idag en livsavgörande behandling som används vid leukemi, men även andra sjukdomar. Trots att behandlingen funnits sedan 1950-talet medför den fortfarande komplikationer. Den är ibland inte heller tillräckligt effektiv, och nya strategier behöver utvecklas. För att kunna genomföra detta är det av stor betydelse att förstå hur sjukdomarna uppstThe road to maturity – how do hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) differentiate into mature blood cells? The pathways of lineage commitment during normal hematopoiesis are of great significance in order to understand the underlying events that lead to leukemia, and to the design of proper treatments for prevention and remission of the disease. The route of hematopoiesis can be thought of as a hierarchi
Salinomycin has found renewed interest as an agent for prevention of cancer recurrence through selectively targeting cancer stem cells. Strategies for generation of improved salinomycin analogs by individual modification of its hydroxyl groups are presented. An evaluation of the dose-response effects of the resulting library on breast cancer cell lines shows that acylation of the C20 hydroxyl can
Background Limited information is available regarding genetic contributions to valvular calcification, which is an important precursor of clinical valve disease. Methods We determined genomewide associations with the presence of aortic-valve calcification (among 6942 participants) and mitral annular calcification (among 3795 participants), as detected by computed tomographic (CT) scanning; the stu
Prospective cohort studies about cutaneous melanoma (CM) risk are still few. Host factor- and UVR exposure data were collected prospectively by questionnaire in this population-based cohort study including 40000 Swedish born women, aged 25-64 years at enrolment (1990). Risk for CM (Cox regression and Stepwise Cox regression [SCR], hazard ratios [HRs] with 95 % Confidence Intervals [CI]) in relatio
Whether cancer predisposing familial factors are associated with childhood tumors is unclear. The purpose was to study the incidence of childhood and adult tumors in extended families of children with cancer. Family history of cancer was obtained through questionnaires, and the Swedish Population-, and Cancer Registries for 194 childhood cancer patients aged ≤18 years, diagnosed 1972-2009. Standar
PURPOSE: For primary melanomas, tumor thickness, mitotic rate and ulceration are well-laid cornerstones of prognostication. However, a molecular exposition of melanoma aggressiveness is critically missing. We recently uncovered a four-class structure in metastatic melanoma that predicts outcome and informs biology. This raises the possibility that a molecular structure exists even in the early st
Phenotypic characteristics were examined in melanoma-prone southern Swedish CDKN2A (p16-113insArg/p14ARF-128insSer) mutation families, in relation to the CDKN2A genotype, nevi, clinically atypical nevi (CAN) and melanoma. Individuals from eight melanoma-prone families, with index patients carrying the CDKN2A mutation, were offered skin examinations and genotyping (CDKN2A and MC1R). Ninety-three in
AIMS/HYPOTHESIS: Our aim was to study whether glycaemic control differs between individuals with latent autoimmune diabetes in adults (LADA) and patients with type 2 diabetes, and whether it is influenced by time on insulin therapy. METHODS: We performed a retrospective study of 372 patients with LADA (205 men and 167 women; median age 54 years, range 35-80 years) from Swedish cohorts from Skåne (
Objective: Ovarian clear cell carcinomas (OCCCs) constitute a rare ovarian cancer subtype with distinct clinical features, but may nonetheless be difficult to distinguish morphologically from other subtypes. There is limited knowledge of genetic events driving OCCC tumorigenesis beyond ARID1A, which is reportedly mutated in 30-50% of OCCCs. We aimed to further characterize OCCCs by combined global
