Although sex and gender are recognized as major determinants of health and immunity, their role is rarely considered in clinical practice and public health. We identified six bottlenecks preventing the inclusion of sex and gender considerations from basic science to clinical practice, precision medicine and public health policies. (i) A terminology-related bottleneck, linked to the definitions of
Epileptogenesis is a complex process involving a multitude of changes at the molecular, cellular and network level. Previous studies have identified several key alterations contributing to epileptogenesis and the development of hyper-excitability in different animal models, but only a few have focused on the early stages of this process. For post status epilepticus (SE) temporal lobe epilepsy in p
In recent years, the term circular economy has become central in both research and politics. Inmost writings and policy documents, a circular economy is assumed to presuppose a break fromprevious habits and practices. Cultural and historical perspectives are often neglected, eventhough most preindustrial agriculture and food systems developed methods for the circulationand recycling of resources.
I naturen fångas solljus in via ljus-absorberande molekyler. På liknande sätt kan färgämnen användas för solcells- och artificiell fotosyntes-applikationer för att absorbera solljus, och överföra den exciterade elektronen.Framgångsrika färgämnen har tidigare varit baserade på Ru-polipyridyl-komplex, trots att Ru är ett av de mest ovanliga ämnena i jordskorpan. Detta arbete har som mål att ersätta Nature captures sunlight via light-absorbing molecules.Similarly, photosensitisers are used in applications of solar cells and artificial photosynthesis to absorb sunlight, and transfer the excited electron.Successful photosensitisers have in the past been based on a Ru polipyridyl scaffold, despite Ru being one of the scarcest elements in Earth's crust.This thesis work aims to replace Ru polipyri
Economic history became a discipline with its own chair professors at the Swedish universities at the end of the 1940s. The well-known economic historian Eli Heckscher played a central role for the establishment and his work led to a stronger position for economic history in Sweden than in most other countries. However, his influence was not strong in the formation of the discipline. He always emp
Besides friction and wear, airborne particle emission has become a central parameter when evaluating disc brake performance due to its potential adverse health effects as component of ambient air pollution. The pad friction material of brake system is composed of a mixture of ingredients grouped into four material categories: abrasives, reinforcing fibres, lubricants, and fillers. Some other ingre
The current war in Ukraine has severely disrupted global food supply chains due to the significant decline in the production of grain commodities, of which Ukraine and Russia are major global suppliers. This creates problems in today’s globalised food systems. In particular, a number of countries are heavily dependent on food imports from Ukraine and/or Russia, particularly some developing nations
Hydropower is a clean and efficient technology for producing renewable energy. Assessment and forecasting of hydropower production are important for strategic decision-making. This study aimed to use machine learning models, including adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS), gene expression programming, random forest (RF), and least square support vector regression (LSSVR), for predicting hy
This report relates to GIROD WP1 – “Development of a calculation model”. WP1 consists of four sub-WPs: 1.1 “Theoretical work”, 1.2 “Bond line tests”, 1.3 “Tests for calibration” and 1.4 “Calibration of model”.In WP1.1 theoretical models for rational prediction of pull out strength have been developed. The models include a very simple ideal plastic model, a linear elastic fracture mechanics model,
The paper accounts for the extent to which gender research is represented in leading archaeological journals throughout the 1980s to the present through the database Arts & Humanities Citation Index (ISI). The paper regards gender research as including gender, feminisms, masculinities,queer, intersectionality and embodiment. It is concluded that gender research, despite its alleged significanc
