The Act on Responsibility for Good Research Practice and the Examination of Research Misconduct (2019:504) came into force on 1 January 2020. The law stipulates that researchers are responsible for maintaining good research practice in their research. The University has overall responsibility for ensuring that research is conducted in accordance with good research practice.Suspected deviations fro
The transition from a-helix to random coil of the titrating polyamino acid Co-poly-L-(lysine, phenylalanine), (p-(Lys,Phe)), has been investigated as a function of pH and ionic strength in aqueous solution and at the air water interface by means of circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy and the Langmuir surface film balance technique. The results strongly suggest that the helix-coil transition for p
Glomus tumours are rare in adults, and such tumours may be associated with neurofibromatosis-1 (Nf-1). Here we describe successful treatment of two glomus tumours initially in the long finger and, one year later, in the thumb in a 17-year young girl with Nf-1.
Thylakoid membranes derived from green leaf chloroplasts affect appetite-regulating hormones, suppress food intake, reduce blood lipids and lead to a decreased body weight in animals and human subjects. Thylakoids also decrease the intestinal in vitro uptake of methyl-glucose in the rat. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of dietary thylakoids on the gut microbiota composition, ma
The aim of this work was to develop a model suited for detailed studies of aerosol dynamics, gas and particle phase chemistry within urban plumes, from local scale (1x1 km(2)) to regional scale. This article describes and evaluates the trajectory model for Aerosol Dynamics, gas and particle phase CHEMistry and radiative transfer (AD-CHEM). The model treats both vertical and horizontal dispersion p
Background: Associations between subjective sleep quality and stage-specific heart rate (HR) may have important clinical relevance when aiming to optimize sleep and overall health. The majority of previously studies have been performed during short periods under laboratory-based conditions. The aim of this study was to investigate the associations of subjective sleep quality with heart rate during
Reconstructions of past land use and related land-cover changes at local and regional scales are needed to evaluate the potential long-term impacts of land use on the coastal waters of the Baltic Sea. In this purpose, we selected the Gamleby area at the Swedish Baltic Sea coast for a case study. We use a new, high resolution pollen record from a small lake (Lillsjön) located 3.6 km NNW of the bay

Aim Airphoto interpretation is based on the skills of the interpreter and the best way to learn is to study images from different areas and with different types of information content. The aim with this project is to giv
This research looks at if the Cohesion Policy is politicized, by looking at the newly proposed Rule of Law conditionality attached to funding, and what this signifies for European Integration. As the conditionality adds to the fold of an ever-increasing amount of internal EU conditionality attached to EU funding since 2014, this paper re-tools Schimmelfennig and Sedelmeier’s external incentive mod
The exclusive economic right of communication to the public granted to authors in respect of their works, as enshrined in Article 3(1) of the Information Society Directive 2001/29/EC, has been the focal point of extensive litigation, surpassing any other provision within European Union (EU) copyright legislation. Undertaking legal dogmatic research, this thesis seeks to delineate the scope of Arti
Background: Integument-related toxicities are common during epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-targeted therapy. Panitumumab is a fully human monoclonal antibody targeting the EGFR that significantly improves progression-free survival when added to chemotherapy in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer who have wild-type (WT) KRAS tumours. Primary efficacy and tolerability results from a

What happened to the Swedish anti-nuclear movement after the referendum on nuclear power in 1980? Scholars describe a period of ecological modernisation, affecting discourse and structures within environmental organisations and politics, entailing a professionalisation of NGOs. Drawing on accounts of a decline of the Swedish anti-nuclear movement since the 1980s, this thesis explores how ecomodern
People with neurological disorders suffer from poor mobility, poor balance, fatigue, isolation and monotonous everyday activities. Studies show that equine-assisted interventions can improve their mobility and balance, but could these kinds of interventions also increase participants’ activity repertoire and self-assessed health, and reduce their fatigue? The study was conducted as a prospective,
Background: Our hypothesis was that a modified diet would improve blood glucose control with beneficial impact on weight management and overall health in established diabetes. Objective: This prospective interventional study investigated the clinical effect of an Okinawan-based Nordic diet on anthropometry, metabolic control, and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in Scandinavian type 2 diabet
