The aim of this thesis was to investigate the interactions between the kallikrein-kinin system (KKS) and the complement system during vascular inflammation and the contribution of extracellular vesicles (EVs). Vasculitis, in patients and in experimental models, was studied as a prototype inflammatory disease of the vasculature.Papers I and II addressed the impact KKS signalling has on complement a
Using the 1972 UK compulsory education reform as a natural experiment, we investigate the impact of education on occupational and industrial sorting through Quarterly Labour Force Surveys. Higher education levels increase the likelihood of men working in public administration and non-manual occupations. For women, it leads to a higher probability of employment in health and education industries. T
The present study offers a first comprehensive, quantifiable overview of the geographical extent and scale of the cuneiform corpus. Though one of the oldest and longest-lived scripts in history, the sheer size of this corpus, being among the largest discrete bodies of written source material from the pre-modern world, is seldom properly appreciated. We review and evaluate past quantitative assessm
Droughts present a significant global challenge, particularly to forest ecosystems in regions such as eastern New South Wales, Australia, which is known for its dry climate and frequent, intense droughts. Recent studies have indicated a notable increase in tree mortality and canopy browning across this area, especially during the recent extreme drought period culminating in the Black Summer of 201
Hybrid zones present a unique framework to study the genetic basis of reproductive isolation and speciation. The European fire-bellied toad (Bombina bombina) and yellow-bellied toad (B. variegata) hybridize in a zone across several thousand kilometres in Central Europe. The Bombina system has been examined for more than a century and its scientific legacy comprises the development of the ultilocus
The mobilization of water has been key for the reconfiguration and modernization of the Spanish state. During the Francoist dictatorship (1939–1975), the hydro-social reengineering of Spain was central to Franco's political mission but failed to provide for subnational, regionalist aspirations which subsequently pursued their own agendas for water development. In this paper we examine the (failed)
Background In vivo studies of airway pathology in obstructive lung disease are limited by poor quality of specimens obtained with forceps. Obtainment of cryobiopsies has increased diagnostic yield in cancer and interstitial lung disease but has not been used in patients with asthma. In a recent pilot study, we found mucosal cryobiopsies to be larger and more intact than conventional forceps biopsi
This paper presents some of the results of the project, EXTOOL, Experience Curves: A Tool for Energy Policy Programmes Assessment, funded by the European Commission. The objective of the project was to analyse the experience curve as a tool for the assessment of energy policy measures. This is of special interest, since the use of experience curves for the assessment of energy policy measures requ
The main characteristic of postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) is tachycardia when standing, without a drop in blood pressure. Patients describe lightheadedness and palpitations when upright, particularly when standing, which sometimes leads to syncope. Patients may experience impaired quality of life and functional disability, which can be economically devastating.1–3 The syndrome is
In this paper, we develop a theoretical framework that explains how digital technologies can help small businesses generate competitive advantages for scaling. To gain and sustain competitive advantages, small businesses traditionally had to choose between cost leadership and differentiation strategies. Digital technologies enable small businesses to reduce their costs and at the same time enhance
We present a brief review of literature related to blogs and news sites; our focus is on publications related to COVID-19. We primarily focus on the role of blogs and news sites in disseminating research on COVID-19 to the wider public, that is knowledge transfer channels. The review is for researchers and practitioners in scholarly communication and social media studies of science who would like

While the magnitude and types of data available to orthopaedic researchers are steadily growing, standardized and efficient data management workflows for orthopaedic research using artificial intelligence (AI) are currently lacking. This work introduces essential principles and best practices for planning, collecting, storing, processing, labelling and governing data in AI-based orthopaedic resear
Antennae, the primary sensory organs of insects, contain numerous sensilla responsible for detecting chemical and physical stimuli essential for host location, communication, and orientation. Although the antennal sensilla of many insect groups—including Gelechiidae—have been well characterized, no such descriptions exist for Anacampsis phytomiella (Busck, 1914), a pest that exclusively infests ca
