This study investigates particulate matter (PM) and regulated emissions from renewable rapeseed oil methyl ester (RME) biodiesel in pure and blended forms and contrasts that to conventional diesel fuel. Environmental and health concerns are the major motivation for combustion engines research, especially finding sustainable alternatives to fossil fuels and reducing diesel PM emissions. Fatty acid
In Sweden men account for most new HIV cases, and little is known about the peer support needs of people living with HIV in Sweden. This qualitative study explored how recently diagnosed men perceive and experience peer support in Sweden. Purposively sampled from HIV patient organizations and infectious disease clinics throughout Sweden, data was collected through in-depth individual interviews wi
Background Treatment-related toxicity and quality of life (QoL) considerations are important when counseling patients with localized prostate cancer (PCa). Objective To determine the incidence and longitudinal pattern of late genitourinary (GU) toxicity and QoL after high-dose, intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT). Design, setting, and participants A total of 268 patients with localized PCa wer
We searched MEDLINE, EMBASE and the Cochrane Controlled Trials Register to determine whether oxygen relieves dyspnoea in mildly or non-hypoxemic COPD and included 18 randomised controlled trials (431 participants) in the meta-analysis using Cochrane methodology. Oxygen therapy reduced dyspnoea when compared with medical air; standardised mean difference -0.37 (95% CI -0.50 to -0.24; I(2)=14%). In
Background: Brief Admission by self-referral is a preventive intervention here intended for individuals who recurrently self-harm and have a history of contact with emergency psychiatric services. Individuals with access to Brief Admission are empowered to self-admit to inpatient care for up to three days per stay and are encouraged to do so before experiencing crisis. Brief Admission was implemen
Introduction and objectives Children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) have an increased risk of sleep problems. Weighted blankets are one possible non-pharmacological intervention for these problems in this group of children. However, the effectiveness of weighted blankets is insufficiently investigated. This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of weighted blankets in t
Shallow geothermal offers great potential to supply emission-free heating and cooling and has therefore a pivotal role in the transition of heating and cooling networks. This paper presents a novel heating and cooling network with possible geothermal energy sharing between decentralized borefields located at each building level. The system consolidates the benefits of both standalone and centraliz

Barker1*, Magdalena Götz2,3* & Malin Parmar4* The ability to repair or promote regeneration within the adult human brain has been envisioned for decades. Until recently, such efforts mainly involved delivery of growth factors and cell transplants designed to rescue or replace a sp

Popular Abstract in Swedish Kostfiber visar på gynnsamma effekter på blodsockersvar, inflammationsmarkörer och blodfetter utifrån tre humanstudier som genomfördes i detta arbete. I en av studierna analyserades blod och urin med metabolomik. Det är en metod där man analyserar alla små molekyler (metaboliter) som finns i provet med hjälp av vätskekromatografi kopplat till masspektrometri. Med hjälp It is well-known that dietary fibre can have a positive effect on the development of lifestyle-dependent diseases such as cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes. However, the effect may be different for different kinds of fibre and different sub-populations at risk. Therefore, the effects of three different kinds of fibre on postprandial and long-term response in healthy subjects were investig
The expression of secondary ornaments is often positively correlated with the bearer's condition. So far no study has reported on consequences of directional selection on male sexual ornaments in birds, i.e. it is unknown to what extent male sexual traits are genetically correlated and whether selection for secondary ornaments affects viability. In this study we estimate phenotypic and genotypic p
Extracellular matrix (ECM) is a non-cellular three-dimensional macromolecular network composed of collagens, proteoglycans/glycosaminoglycans, elastin, fibronectin, laminins, and several other glycoproteins. Matrix components bind each other as well as cell to adhesion receptors forming a complex network into which cells reside in all tissues and organs. Cell surface receptors transduce signals in

IS har under många års tid begått fruktansvärda brott i deras ”kalifat”, framförallt mot etniska minoriteter och kvinnor. Deras agerande har av FN:s utredningskommission ansetts uppnå kriterierna för folkmord, krigsbrott och brott mot mänskligheten. Den här uppsatsen analyserar möjligheterna för det internationella straffrättssystemet att utreda och döma IS-medlemmar för de här brotten. Enligt teoISIS has committed horrible crimes to people in their “caliphate”, especially towards ethnic minorities and women. Their actions are according to the UN Independent Commission of Inquiry considered to constitute crimes against humanity, war crimes and genocide. This essay analyses the possibilities for the international criminal system to investigate and prosecute members of ISIS who have committe
Mountains provide a variety of ecosystem services, such as drinking water, which sustains not only mountain communities but also people living further downstream. While climate change threatens most ecosystems, its negative impacts are up to three times greater in high altitudes. As well as changing the water cycle this further accelerates climate change. Although they contribute comparably little
Background: It has been estimated that approximately 20% of all Swedish children grow up with parents having alcohol problems, which may result in negative outcomes among these children. Therefore, most Swedish municipalities provide resources for support, but at the same time figures reveal that not even 2% receive support, mainly due to difficulties in identifying and recruiting these children i
