Ovarian cancer is among the most lethal gynecological malignancies, with high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) being the most aggressive and prevalent subtype. This heterogeneous disease is typically diagnosed at an advanced stage and is associated with high relapse rates. Increasing attention is being directed toward the tumor microenvironment (TME), a complex and dynamic network of non-cancer
SUMMARY: Parasite prevalence is an important variable in many evolutionary and ecological studies. In birds, haemosporidian blood parasites have been in focus of many comparative analyses. Because low prevalence is difficult to estimate precisely and that studies finding low prevalence are more likely to remain unpublished, our knowledge of parasite prevalence is biased towards highly infected tax
Det finns idag internationlla bestämmelser, exempelvis EKMR, ILO:s konventioner, den sociala stadgan och rättighetsstadgan, som alla stadgar att det rätten till stridsåtgärder är en grundläggande rättighet. Denna rätt har genom EU-domstolens avgöranden i målen Laval, Viking, Luxemburg och Rüffert, inskränkts till förmån för den fria rörligheten för tjänster och etableringsfriheten inom EU. EU-domsThere are today international regulations, for example ECHR, ILO conventions, the European social charter and the Charter of fundamental rights of the EU, which state that the right to take collective action is a fundamental right. This right has, through the rulings of the ECJ in the Laval, Viking, Luxemburg and Rüffert cases, been limited in favor of the free movement of services and freedom of
Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning Universums byggstenar Redan för flera tusen år sedan funderade de gamla grekerna på vad vår värld är uppbyggd av och hur den fungerar. Dessa greker är idag tyvärr döda, men deras frågor lever kvar än idag, hetare än någonsin tidigare. Vad de kanske inte hade räknat med är hur vi idag tänker finna svar på dessa frågor. I början av 1900-talet påbörjades formuleFor thousands of years we humans have asked ourselves the same question; what does our universe consist of and how does it work? One step in the direction to solve this mystery is to understand how the universe behaved just a few fractions of seconds after Big Bang. It is today believed that the matter present at this time consisted of a so called QGP. This is a kind of matter where the quarks and
We show that the 2.4σ signal of the leptonic flavor violating (LFV) Higgs boson decay h→μτ, as observed by the CMS Collaboration recently, can be explained by a certain class of two-Higgs doublet models that allow controllable flavor-changing neutral current with a minimal number of free parameters. We postulate that (i) the alignment limit is maintained, which means the lightest neutral scalar (h
The introduction of containerization triggered complementary technological and organizational changes that revolutionized global freight transport. Despite numerous claims about the importance of containerization in stimulating international trade, econometric estimates on the effects of containerization on trade appear to be missing. Our paper fills this gap in the literature. Our key idea is to
Apolipoprotein E (ApoE), an important mediator of lipid transportation in plasma and the nervous system, plays a large role in diseases such as atherosclerosis and Alzheimer's. The major allele variants ApoE3 and ApoE4 differ only by one amino acid. However, this difference has major consequences for the physiological behaviour of each variant. In this paper, we follow (i) the initial interaction
Aging and aging-related neurodegenerative disorders, such as Alzheimer’s disease, are characterized by chronic inflammation that progressively damages nervous tissue within the central nervous system (CNS). In addition to cytokines, lectin-like carbohydrate recognition molecules play a critical role in modifying cellular communication during inflammation. Among these, galectins—particularly anti-i
BACKGROUND: Allergic contact dermatitis (ACD) from protective gloves is often caused by rubber additives, such as accelerators. However, while accelerator-free rubber gloves are available, they still cause ACD in some individuals.OBJECTIVES: A new allergen, 2-cyаnоethyl dimethyldithiocarbamate, (CEDMC), has recently been identified in accelerator-free gloves, and we here provide a first in vitro c
In this paper, we propose a novel 3-DOF visual odometry method to estimate the location and pose (yaw) of a mobile robot when the robot is navigating indoors. Particularly, we mainly aim at dealing with the corridor-like scenarios where the RGB-D camera mounted on the robot can capture apparent planar structures such as floor or walls. The novelties of our method lie in two-folds. First, to fully
Här studeras konceptet ’zero waste’, ungefär ’inget avfall’, applicerat på livsmedelsindustrin, och hur den miljömässiga påverkan skiljer sig mellan ett förpackningslöst scenario som kan ses i en nischad, dansk livsmedelsbutik, och ett konventionellt scenario, där två typiska produkter i vanliga matbutiker används som referenser. I den danska butiken säljs havregryn i gravitationsmatare (gravity dThis study investigates the zero-waste concept applied to the food industry, and how the environmental impact differs between a package-free scenario found at a specialised Danish retail-store and a conventional scenario, using two reference products typically found in normal retail stores in Sweden. In the Danish store, the oats are sold in gravity dispensers, and the rapeseed oil is sold in glas
There is a strong need to replace animal-based experiments with in vitro alternatives. Mutz-3, a myeloid cell line, has been successfully used to investigate skin sensitization. A problem with in vitro assays, not only affecting Mutz-3, is the use of Fetal Bovine Serum for cell cultivation, as it is a serum supplement which is not fully defined, and it introduces variability in cell-based experime
Central limit theorems for linear statistics of lattice random fields (including spin models) are usually proven under suitable mixing conditions or quasi-associativity. Many interesting examples of spin models do not satisfy mixing conditions, and on the other hand, it does not seem easy to show central limit theorem for local statistics via quasi-associativity. In this work, we prove general cen
This study reports on the effects of conformationally controlled amphiphilicity of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) on their ability to coat TiO2 nanoparticles (NPs) and boost the photocatalytic antimicrobial effects of such NPs. For this, TiO2 NPs were combined with AMP EFK17 (EFKRIVQRIKDFLRNLV), displaying a disordered conformation in aqueous solution but helix formation on interaction with bacteri
Calcium is essential for the human body as it has functions in the nervous system, bones and formation of teeth. Deficiency in this important nutrient can be detrimental to health and cause life-long issues. Calcium can be found in various foods, like dairy products, but certain plant-based alternatives to milk needs to be fortified with calcium. One of the complications with calcium supplements i
