BACKGROUND: Beneficial effects from practising a Paleolithic diet as compared to a diabetes diet on weight, waist circumference, satiety, leptin, HbA1c and glucose control in randomised controlled trial participants with type 2 diabetes could be due to lower leptin resistance. Support for this hypothesis comes from an in vitro experiment that showed that digested wheat gluten, which is excluded fr

Psoriasis (PSO) and psoriatic arthritis (PsA) are two related chronic inflammatory diseases. A proportion of people with PSO also develop PsA.

Compared with other chronic diseases, such as heart disease and diabetes,

Context. Although thousands of exoplanets have been discovered to date, far fewer have been fully characterised, in particular super-Earths. The KESPRINT consortium identified K2-216 as a planetary candidate host star in the K2 space mission Campaign 8 field with a transiting super-Earth. The planet has recently been validated as well. Aims. Our aim was to confirm the detection and derive the main
We investigated the impact on work life exits from reduced access to disability pension (2006), and financial incentives to extend working life. Method and materialWe used labour statistics of all employees in Sweden, Social insurance and income data, to compare occupational groups (SSYK, based on ISCO-88), and blue and white collar workers, with regard to i) lost years in working life due to deat
Syftet med uppsatsen är att utreda det rättsliga förhållandet mellan arbetstagarens företrädesrätt till återanställning och arbetsgivarens användning av bemanningsarbete. Eftersom Europeiska unionen (EU) antog direktiv 2008/104/EG om uthyrning av arbetskraft (bemanningsdirektivet) år 2008 är ytterligare ett syfte att utreda dess eventuella påverkan på företrädesrätten. I takt med att bemanningsbThe purpose of this essay is to examine the legal relationship between the employee’s preferential right to reinstatement and the employer’s right to make use of temporary agency work.

Övergivna återvinningscentraler på flera platser i Skåne har under det senaste året varit ett omtalat ämne. I Sverige finns ett hundratal fastigheter som saknar ägare. En fastighet kan bli herrelös genom att en konkursförvaltare väljer att överge fastigheten under pågående konkurs om fastighetens ekonomiska värde är negativt.

Eye movements do more than gather visual input – they actively contribute to the formation and retrieval of relational memories by linking information across space and time. During retrieval, gaze patterns often reflect memory reactivation well before an explicit response is made, a phenomenon known as the relational eye-movement effect. While this effect appears closely associated with hippocampa
