Klimatavtryck från Sveriges och världens rikaste har ökat stadigt sedan 90-talet. Samtidigt har de med lägst inkomst minskat sina utsläpp. Nu undersöker forskare om begränsningar för superrika kan bidra till minskade utsläpp. Utopi eller frihetskränkande?
Over the past two decades, the Nordic countries have attracted atten-tion, for instance, due to their high rankings in surveys of happinessand a range of other economic and social indicators. This special issueinvestigates how strategic communication is theorized and practicedwithin this regional context, focusing on the distinctive conditions thatshape both conceptual frameworks and professional
Background Treatment of severe hemophilia A (SHA) with FVIII concentrates is complicated by the development of neutralizing inhibitors in about 30% during the first 50 exposure days (EDs). Despite extensive research, inhibitor risk of different FVIII concentrates remains to be elucidated. Objectives This study aimed to analyze inhibitor development according to (classes of) individual FVIII concen
PURPOSE: We aimed to develop a predictive tool for anastomotic leakage (AL) following colon cancer surgery by combining a clinical early warning score (EWS) with the C-reactive protein (CRP) level.METHODS: The records of 1,855 patients who underwent colon cancer surgery at the Oxford University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust between January 2013 and December 2018, with or without AL, were retrospe
BACKGROUND: Intestinal resection and a proximal stoma is the preferred surgical approach in patients with severe secondary peritonitis due to perforation of the small intestine. However, proximal stomas may result in significant nutritional problems and long-term parenteral nutrition. This study aimed to assess whether primary anastomosis or suturing of small intestine perforation is feasible and
Structural variants, such as deletions, insertions, and inversions, have been increasingly recognized as important drivers of genome evolution, in the era of high-throughput sequencing. However, large-scale chromosomal rearrangements involving multiple chromosomes, including translocations, chromosomal fusions, and fissions, remain relatively understudied, especially outside of clinical and model
Domestication and artificial selection for desirable traits have driven significant phenotypic changes and left detectable genomic footprints in farmed animals. Since the 1960s, intensive breeding has led to the rapid domestication of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar), with multiple independent events that make it a valuable model for studying early domestication stages and the parallel evolution of p
The Period genes (Per) play essential roles in modulating the molecular circadian clock timing in a broad range of species, which regulates the physiological and cellular rhythms through the transcription-translation feedback loop. While the Period gene paralogs are widely observed among vertebrates, the evolutionary history and the functional diversification of Per genes across vertebrates are no
This article introduces the special issue Animal Privacy, situating its contributions in the fields of animal studies and privacy studies. By analyzing how a focus on non-human perspectives can reframe understandings of privacy, this introduction highlights how the authors in this special issue add new perspectives on animal privacy in the context of technology and surveillance, ethics and consent
The EU's Clean Energy Package introduced renewable and citizen energy communities (RECs/CECs) to strengthen citizen participation in electricity markets. Nordic countries, however, have long-standing traditions of community-based energy provision, including district heating cooperatives, small hydropower schemes, and wind cooperatives. This article examines how nationally embedded energy models in
Background: Clinical supervisors’ competence is central to student learning, particularly in the context of existing practical, organizational, and resource-related challenges in simulation-based education. This study explored clinical supervisors’ experience of acting as instructors during simulation-based learning in specialist nursing education in anesthesia and intensive care. Method: An explo
Given the reproducing kernel k of the Hilbert space Hk we study spaces Hk(b) whose reproducing kernel has the form k(1−bb⁎), where b is a row-contraction on Hk. In terms of reproducing kernels this is the most far-reaching generalization of the classical de Branges-Rovnyaks spaces, as well as their very recent generalization to several variables. This includes the so called sub-Bergman spaces [31]
Canopy decline is increasingly prevalent in high-elevation snow gum (Eucalyptus pauciflora) forests across the Australian Alps. This phenomenon, known as snow gum dieback, is associated with infestations by the wood-boring beetle, Phoracantha mastersi. The larvae of this beetle create feeding galleries in the tree trunk, leading to the exudation of kino, a tannin-rich resin produced as a defense r
This article examines the benefits and pitfalls of using topic modeling to analyze discursive changes in sixteenth- and eighteenth-century German midwifery books. These periods were marked by transformations in the perspectives of midwives’ knowledge and practices, providing important insight into how midwifery was discussed as a field between private practice and public legitimization. By highlig
The traditional approach to quantum parameter estimation focuses on the quantum state, deriving fundamental bounds on precision through the quantum Fisher information. In most experimental settings, however, performing arbitrary quantum measurements is highly unfeasible. In open quantum systems, an alternative approach to metrology involves the measurement of stochastic currents flowing from the s
We study the time complexity of computing the (min,+) matrix product of two n×n integer matrices in terms of n and the number of monotone subsequences the rows of the first matrix and the columns of the second matrix can be decomposed into. In particular, we show that if each row of the first matrix can be decomposed into at most m1 monotone subsequences and each column of the second matrix can b
Modern Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies have a rapidly growing impact on a wide range of human activities. AI methods are being used in varied domains such as healthcare, material science, infrastructure engineering, social media, surveillance technologies, and even artistic expression. They have been used for the purposes of drug discovery via protein folding prediction, power usage opti
