Stormfloder betraktas som ett stort hot mot ekosystem och infrastruktur längs kuster, och hotet ökar på grund av det nuvarande föränderliga klimatet, med alltmer frekventa översvämningshändelser, erosion och sedimentomlagring. I detta sammanhang blir insatser för att identifiera spår av stormfloder i geologiska arkiv allt viktigare för att förstå effekterna av sådana händelser på miljön. Denna stuStorm-surges are considered a major coastal threat to ecosystems and infrastructure in the current changing climate, with increasingly frequent flooding events, erosion and sediment redistribution. In this context, efforts to identify traces of storm-surges in the geological record are becoming increasingly important to understand the impacts of such events on the environment. This project investi

Mobile connectivity is set to change in the coming years due to AI generated data from agents and robotics. How this will develop remains uncertain since this type of data generation is not only a question of connectivity but also compute location and use cases. This creates a need for forward looking scenario analysis for ecosystem players so they can position themselves to win in a new paradigm.

Despite generous welfare and family policies, Sweden has a sizeable positive socioeconomic gradient in fertility; those with higher incomes have more children than those with lower incomes. While this positive socioeconomic gradient in fertility is not a new phenomenon in Sweden, a similar shift towards a positive fertility gradient is more recently seen in other high-income countries as well. Amo

Introduction: After resuscitation from out of hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA), mechanical ventilation (MV) and respiratory management are fundamental to support patients in the intensive care unit (ICU) and to minimise secondary brain injury. Best practices for MV and association with clinical outcomes in patients with OHCA remain unclear. Methods and analysis: This protocol describes a pre-planned

The mcstas_gisans framework is a collection of Python scripts and modules tofacilitate the simulation of grazing-incidence small-angle neutron scattering(GISANS) experiments. This approach combines McStas instrument simulationwith BornAgain sample modeling capabilities. The Monte Carlo Particle Listsformat for particle trajectory allows exchange between simulations that enablesseamless transition

This thesis explores possibilities and challenges for urban planners to contribute to a degrowth transformation. Degrowth calls for a reduction of production and consumption, a redistribution of wealth and a shift in societal norms and values to address the current environmental crises. According to the existing literature, urban planners may be able to help advance and implement degrowth. To expl

Purpose: Adolescent and young adult (AYA) cancer survivors have unique psychological needs and require tailored support, as they transition from hospital settings following cancer treatment. This study aimed to evaluate the safety and clinical effectiveness of the online "Recapture Life" program to improve AYA aged survivors' psychological adjustment in early cancer survivorship. Methods: The inte

Cell Therapy in Parkinson’s Disease Olle Lindvall and Anders Bjo¨rklund Wallenberg Neuroscience Center and Lund Strategic Center for Stem Cell Biology and Cell Therapy, BMC A11, SE-221 84 Lund, Sweden Summary: The clinical studies with intrastriatal transplants of fetal mesencephalic tissue in Parkinson’s disease (PD) patients have provided proof-of-principle for the cell replacement strat- egy in

This report presents the assessment of a six-week online course offered by BeChange, which was given from April to June in 2022. Through a total of five online sessions, an interactive learning platform, diverse practices and individual coaching, the course aimed to support participants in reducing their CO2 emissions, increase their climate engagement, and at the same time enhance their wellbeing

INTRODUCTION: Since 2005, disease-related human genetic diversity has been intensively characterized using genome-wide association studies (GWAS). Understanding how and by whom this work was performed may yield valuable insights into the generalizability of GWAS discoveries to global populations and how high-impact genetics research can be equitably sustained in the future.MATERIALS AND METHODS: W

Irradiation with ultraviolet light (UV) at 254 nm is effective in inactivating a wide range of human pathogens. In Sweden, a UV dose of 400 J/m2 is often used for the treatment of drinking water. To investigate its effect on virus inactivation, enteric viruses with different genomic organizations were irradiated with three UV doses (400, 600, and 1000 J/m2), after which their viability on cell cul

What kind of insights can anthropology offer to the study of IOs? This essay illustrates this via an inductive theorization on the effectiveness of organizational aesthetics.

This research presents blogs as an innovative and rich tool for political communication. Blogs can facilitate two-way communication and true interaction between citizens and politicians. The article analyses in depth the content,uses, and characteristics of five weblogs written by Aragonese politicians. Although the study detects some weaknesses in the current political use of blogs, it encourages

To evaluate the hemostatic system with ROTEM in patients undergoing surgery for acute type aortic dissection (ATAAD) using elective aortic procedures as controls. This was a prospective, controlled, observational study. The study was performed at a tertiary referral center and university hospital. Twenty-three patients with ATAAD were compared to 20 control patients undergoing elective surgery of

mRNA-based therapeutics are predicted to have a bright future. Recently, a B2C study was published highlighting the critical bottlenecks of mRNA manufacturing. The study focused on supply bottlenecks of various chemicals as well as shortages of skilled personnel. The assessment of existing messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) vaccine processing shows the need for continuous manufacturing processes th

Galectin-3 is a carbohydrate-binding protein central to regulating mechanisms of diseases such as fibrosis, cancer, metabolic, inflammatory, and heart disease. We recently found a high affinity (nM) thiodigalactoside GB0139 which currently is in clinical development (PhIIb) as an inhaled treatment of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. To enable treatment of systemically galectin-3 driven disease, we h

Purpose: A preoperative estimate of the risk of malignancy for intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMN) is important. The present study carries out an external validation of the Shin score in a European multicenter cohort. Methods: An observational multicenter European study from 2010 to 2015. All consecutive patients undergoing surgery for IPMN at 35 hospitals with histological-confirmed I

Background: Proton beam therapy penetrates tumor tissues with a highly concentrated dose. It is useful when normal structures are too proximate to the treatment target and, thus, may be damaged by surgery or conventional photon beam therapy. However, proton beam therapy has only been used to treat recurrent endometrial cancer in a few cases; therefore, its effectiveness remains unclear. Case prese

The late Cambrian Steptoean positive carbon isotope excursion (SPICE) represents a major perturbation to the global carbon cycle and was associated with trilobite extinctions and expansion of anoxic and/or euxinic water masses during episodes of eustatic sea-level change. We present a new Re-Os age together with Os and Nd isotope stratigraphy and major and trace-element data from the Alum Shale Fo
