Popular Abstract in Swedish Denna avhandling beskriver den centrala metabolismen och produktionen av exopolysackarider (EPS) hos två olika mjölksyrabakterier: Lactobacillus reuteri och Pediococcus parvulus. Mjölksyrabakterier används inom livsmedelsindustrin som startkulturer i olika mjölkbaserade produkter. Generellt utnyttjas en specifik metabol väg för nerbrytningen av sockerkällan till mjölksyThis thesis deals with the central carbohydrate metabolism and exopolysaccharide (EPS) formation in two different lactic acid bacteria (LAB): Lactobacillus reuteri and Pediococcus parvulus. LAB are traditionally used as starter cultures in the food industry. In general, LAB harbours one glycolytic pathway converting carbohydrates into lactic acid. However, L. reuteri ATCC 55730 was proven to use t

BACKGROUND: Atrioventricular plane displacement (AVPD) reflects longitudinal left ventricular (LV) systolic function, and wall thickening (WT) regional radial LV function. The temporal evolution of these measures after STEMI with CMR has not been evaluated. We aimed to investigate how AVPD and WT are affected globally and regionally from the sub-acute to the chronic phase after ST-elevation myocar

Background: Low levels of the soluble tumour necrosis factor-like weak inducer of apoptosis (sTWEAK) and depression are linked to cardiovascular disease. Galectin-3, inadequate glycemic control and low high-density lipoprotein (HDL)-cholesterol levels were previously linked to depression in these patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). The main aim was to explore whether sTWEAK was associat

Rare earth elements are strategic commodities in many countries, and an important resource for the growing modern technology industry. As such, there is an increasing interest for development of rare earth element processing, and this work is a part of further development of chromatography as a rare earth element separation process method.

Objective: To analyze the outcomes of urgent/emergent endovascular aortic repair of patients with free/contained ruptured thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms (rTAAA). Background: Endovascular repair of rTAAA has been scarcely described in emergent setting. Methods: An international multicenter retrospective observational study (ClinicalTrials.govID:NCT05956873) from January 2015 to January 2023 in 6

Background: Rare variants of the triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cell 2 (TREM2) gene are strong risk factors for Alzheimer’s disease (AD), and drugs targeting the TREM2 protein are being developed. However, it is unknown what the effect of TREM2 variants is on the AD phenotype. Methods: Here we studied a full range of clinical and biomarker measures in a large cohort of TREM2 variant carr

17 ORNIS SVECICA 18: 17–44, 2008 Abstract Introduction Three species of thrushes are common in the Scan- dinavian subalpine birch zone: Redwing Turdus iliacus, Fieldfare T. pilaris, and Song Thrush T. philomelos. Two of the species, the Redwing and the Fieldfare, have been studied within a long-term project on population dynamics in the birch and alpine zones near the village of Ammarnäs (65° 58’

This thesis examines whether more generous unemployment insurance is associated with greater household portfolio risk-taking in Europe by reducing background income risk. Using a largely balanced panel of European countries, the analysis measures household risk-taking as the share of household financial assets held in equity and investment fund shares. Unemployment insurance generosity is proxied

Objective: Retrograde open mesenteric stenting (ROMS) through laparotomy was introduced as an alternative to surgical bypass in patients with acute mesenteric ischemia (AMI). The purpose of this study was to evaluate the indications and outcomes of ROMS for treatment of AMI and chronic mesenteric ischemia. Methods: We reviewed the clinical data and outcomes of all consecutive patients treated by R

BACKGROUND: This is an open-label, single-arm, single-center pilot study using 7-Tesla in vivo proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H MRS) to measure brain cortical glutathione concentration at baseline before and during the use of oral fumarates as a disease-modifying therapy for multiple sclerosis. The primary endpoint of this research was the change in prefrontal cortex glutathione concentr

Objective: To implement artificial neural network (ANN) algorithms for noninvasive lymph node staging (NILS) to a decision support tool and facilitate the option to omit surgical axillary staging in breast cancer patients with low-risk of nodal metastasis. Methods: The NILS tool is a further development of an ANN prototype for the prediction of nodal status. Training and internal validation of the

BACKGROUND: Identification of risk factors for rapid joint destruction in early rheumatoid arthritis (RA) can be helpful for optimizing treatment, and improving our understanding of destructive arthritis and its mechanisms. The objective of this study was to investigate the relationship between early RA patient characteristics and subsequent rapid radiographic progression (RRP).METHODS: An incepti

Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: Sen den industriella revolutionen har koldioxidhalten i atmosfären nästan fördubblats, från 280 ppm till 360 ppm. Detta har skapat stora diskussioner om hur vårt klimat kommer att påverkas. Koldioxid (CO2) är en växthusgas och med detta menas att den absorberar inkommande energi och på så sätt värmer upp vår jord. I denna studie har fokusen lagts på hur vegetatiIncreasing levels of CO2 in the atmosphere may substantially increase net primary productivity (NPP) and thereby increase carbon sequestration by terrestrial ecosystems. Realistic Free Air Carbon Enrichment (FACE) experiments tend to show a NPP enhancement of about 25% if CO2 is elevated by 200 ppm. In this study two generalized vegetation models, the Lund-Postsdam-Jena dynamic generalized vegetat
