Chuño (black) and tunta (white) are two ancient potato derivatives traditionally produced in the high-altitude Andean region through a natural freezing, pressing, washing, and sun-drying process that preserves the tubers for long-term storage. The present study investigates the resistant starch (RS) content, antioxidant capacity, and bioactive metabolites produced by fermentation with probiotic ba
This article critically examines Viking Age mortuary reconstructions, a genre of archaeological imagery increasingly influential in scholarly and popular contexts. Focusing on Scandinavian examples produced since 2000, the study interrogates the emotive, affective, and ethical dimensions of these visualisations. Employing a visual social semiotic framework, it analyses vantage points, colour sche
As decolonization transformed world geopolitics, various Eastern Europeanauthoritarian ultranationalist groups sought to instrumentalize anti-imperialism in their attempts to launch a violent overthrow of the socialist regimes of the Soviet bloc. As the USSR underwent a transformation from the radical anti-imperialism of the 1920s to certain imperial attributes following the announcement of the BrAs decolonization transformed world geopolitics, various Eastern Europeanauthoritarian ultranationalist groups sought to instrumentalize anti-imperialism in their attempts to launch a violent overthrow of the socialist regimes of the Soviet bloc.

The thesis explores the migration experiences of Syrian refugees who arrived in Sweden and Denmark by crossing the Mediterranean Sea in small, precarious boats. It aims to illuminate how these refugees managed the risks they faced during their journey to Europe and the meanings they associated with these risks. The research focuses on the socio-cultural and individual contexts within which risk is
Accurate diagnosis of frontotemporal dementia (FTD) with right anterior temporal lobe (RATL) predominance remains challenging due to lack of clinical characterization, and standardized terminology. The recent research of the International Working Group (IWG) identified common symptoms but also unveiled broad terminologies lacking precision and operationalization, with risk of misdiagnoses, inappro
This paper explores an initiative by a local government in Rättvik, Sweden, to increase the consumption of local food in the municipal kitchens. It explores public procurement of local food as a way for local governments to address sustainability and climate goals while meeting residents’ demand for ‘good’ local food. Through a qualitative case study reviewing food and procurement policies across
Gut-associated lymphoid tissues (GALT) represent major sites of adaptive immune priming in the intestine, yet our understanding of human GALT diversity and function remains limited. Here, we used single-cell RNA sequencing, flow cytometry, and confocal laser microscopy to map the fibroblast (FB) landscape of human GALT, including that of Peyer's patches (PP), mucosal isolated lymphoid follicles (M
