Oil palm plantation expansion is occurring at a rapid pace. However, substantial yield losses from pest attacks are becoming major threats to the oil palm industry, while the potential role of conservation biological control, a sustainable and environmentally friendly solution for pest control, is still largely unknown. The type of vegetation surrounding oil palm plantations is likely to influence

The ro-vibrational spectra around 3 µm of four small hydrocarbons (C2H2, CH4, C2H6 and C2H4) at 296, 550 and 820 K have been investigated using infrared degenerate four-wave mixing (IR-DFWM). The spectra were recorded in gas flows of nitrogen with small admixtures of the hydrocarbons. A fused silica glass tube surrounded by an electric heating wire was used to heat the gas flows. The recorded IR-D

The article treats the problem why a descriptive grammar cannot avoid from being normative in some ways. some uses of language are always excluded. on the other hand a descriptive grammar should account for competing variants where there might be disagreement among the language users which expression is correct, i.e. should be accepted as norm. The descriptive grammar does not tell which variant i

Decision biases reinforce firms’ tendency to develop innovations based on narrow economic motivations. Consequently, sustainability-oriented ideas explicitly targeting social and environmental issues are easily discarded in idea selection when trade-offs between economic and sustainability values are faced. Given the so far limited knowledge about how sustainability-oriented ideas are developed an

Vacuum membrane distillation is a promising technology for seawater desalination, as it enables high recovery ratios, with reasonable thermal and minimal electric consumption. Ceramic membranes can offer notable advantages over polymeric membranes, mainly due to their robust thermal and mechanical stability, yet they have limited representation in the literature. Accordingly, this work investigate

Neuroblastoma (NB) is a heterogeneous childhood cancer, characterized by the amplification of the MYCN oncogene in 40% of the high-risk cases. Our previous work demonstrated that MYCN drives metabolic reprogramming in NB, including upregulation of antioxidant enzymes. Here, we identify peroxiredoxin 6 (PRDX6) as a promising therapeutic target in NB. Pharmacological inhibition of PRDX6 reduces MYCN

Background: Osteoarthritis (OA) and inflammatory arthritis (IA), including rheumatoid arthritis (RA), psoriatic arthritis (PsA), and axial spondylarthritis (axSpA), are leading causes of disability worldwide, significantly impacting health and quality of life. Sleep issues are highly prevalent in these populations, exacerbating pain, fatigue, and disease activity. However, there is a dearth of evi

Correlated electron physics is intrinsically a multiscale problem, since high-energy electronic states screen the interactions between the correlated electrons close to the Fermi level, thereby reducing the magnitude of the interaction strength and dramatically shortening its range. Thus the handling of screening is an essential ingredient in the first-principles modeling of correlated electron sy

Introduction: Preclinical studies have demonstrated the ability of FLASH irradiation to expand the therapeutic window by sparing normal tissues. The heart is a critical organ at risk in patients receiving radiotherapy for thoracic cancers. This study aimed to quantify the cardiac sparing effects of photon FLASH delivered as single (FLASH) or FLASH split dose (FSD) exposures. Methods: Female C57BL/

In situations where robots are performing manipulation tasks, e.g. welding, grinding, and drilling, it is necessary to avoid excessive forces in the contact with the environment. Because of geometric uncertainty and finite positioning accuracy this usually cannot be solved by position control alone. The subject of this thesis is robot force control, with particular interest devoted to impedance co

First in this master thesis some classical dynamic models for macroeconomic systems are presented. Then follow comparisons between keynesian and monetarist models. The greatest part of the thesis deals with different constructions of monetarist models for Sweden in the shape of linear difference equations with constant coefficients. The starting-point has been a well-known examination of the U.S.

This master thesis investigates material characterization by reflection and transmission of electromagnetic waves in the 40-60 GHz band (millimeter-wave spectrum) for different materials. The free-space measurement method is a fast, efficient and non-destructive way of examining a material and is being researched by both academics and industries. The theory of how electromagnetic waves interact w

BACKGROUND: Bartonella schoenbuchensis is suspected to cause deer ked dermatitis and febrile diseases in humans. Deer keds (Lipoptena cervi), which infest cervids (e.g., roe deer, fallow deer), are discussed as potential vectors for B. schoenbuchensis.METHODS: We analyzed the seroprevalence of anti-B. schoenbuchensis immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibodies in sera of forest workers (FW; n = 82) compared

This study is about the vulnerability of parents to adult children with drug problems. The study is based on a self-reporting questionnaire (n = 687) distributed to parents in Sweden via family member organizations, treatment centers, and online communities. Most parents reported extensive negative consequences on relationships, social life, and mental health due to their children’s drug problems.

BACKGROUND: Trace elements like iodine have been suggested to be associated with breast cancer due to their antioxidant properties and ecological differences in incidence and mortality. Yet, there are no epidemiological studies on breast cancer prognosis in relation to iodine levels. The primary aim of this study was to investigate the association between prediagnostic serum iodine levels and brea
