John Maynard Keynes was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize in the 1920s for writing “The Economic Consequences of the Peace”. Yet, despite being highly ranked by the advisor of the Nobel Committee and placed on the shortlist, he did not win. This column brings out previously unused archival material from the Nobel Committee in Oslo to explore why. The Committee tended to withhold the Prize when c
BACKGROUND: The diagnostic role of signal-averaged ECG (SAECG) in arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) has lately been questioned. We assessed the value of SAECG-derived late ventricular potentials (LP) in ARVC diagnosis and its association with disease manifestations.METHODS AND RESULTS: Patients with definite ARVC diagnosis or genotype-positive family members who underwent SAEC
The transition to renewable energy is a critical element in global efforts to combat climate change. This study explores the decarbonization pathway for Peru’s energy sector, emphasizing renewable energy integration in the electricity generation sector. Peru's rich renewable resources—hydropower, wind, solar, geothermal and biomass—highlight its potential as a regional leader in sustainable en
Background: The international multi-center randomized controlled STEPCARE-trial will investigate optimal management of sedation, temperature, and mean arterial pressure (MAP) during intensive care in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) patients due to various etiologies. The primary outcome is mortality at 6 months. This protocol describes an extended follow-up sub-study of the STEPCARE-trial wi
This paper presents a search for a new Z′ resonance decaying into a pair of dark quarks which hadronise into dark hadrons before promptly decaying back as Standard Model particles. This analysis is based on proton-proton collision data recorded at s = 13 TeV with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider between 2015 and 2018, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 139 fb−1. After sele
This article analyses how a newly established set of actors – online brokerage firms (OBFs) – sought to popularise stock trading among the Swedish populace in the late 1990s. During this period, internet usage took off and stock markets surged rapidly up until the dotcom bubble burst in 2000. Sweden was at the forefront of both these international developments, and we analyse the intimate connecti
Background Aortic valve calcification (AVC) is a disease process driven by inflammation and lipid infiltration, serving as a precursor to aortic stenosis. While male sex has been implicated as a risk factor for AVC, sex-specific differences, particularly among younger individuals in the general population, are not well characterised. Methods The Swedish CArdioPulmonary BioImage Study was used, com
Nocturnal lepidopteran pollinators face pesticide exposure risks in agricultural landscapes, yet lack adequate risk assessment frameworks compared to diurnal species. We present a formal model description for Noctua pronuba within the Animal Landscape and Man Simulation System (ALMaSS), providing the first comprehensive agent-based framework for assessing the impacts of pesticides on nocturnal mot
Marine environments worldwide are increasingly threatened by warming, deoxygenation, and ocean acidification. These stressors can be recorded as alterations in foraminiferal geochemistry and morphology. We integrated morphological features with assemblage and geochemical records of benthic foraminifera from the Danish Straits at the entrance to the Baltic Sea, covering the Last Interglacial period
This article describes the phonetic characteristics of the most common vocalisation types and subtypes in the domestic cat: the meow, the trill, the howl, the growl, the hiss (and the spit), the snarl (and the cry), the purr, the chirp and the chatter. In addition, the contexts where the different sounds are normally produced, and accompanying body postures and movements are summarised. Acoustic d
The city of Stockholm has increased its number of surveillance cameras in public places the last few years in the name of crime prevention. However, as the number of cameras increases, how does this affect the people living in the city? This paper examines how surveillance cameras affect young women between the ages of 18-24 and their perception in different area around Sergels torg, T-Centralen a
Investor sentiment is an important research object in behavioral finance, and its analysis has been one of the hot topics in stock market research recently. As an abstract concept, investor sentiment needs to be visualized by the construction of the investor sentiment index. In 2006, Baker and Wurgler proposed the Baker & Wurgler (BW) index, which can reflect investor sentiment in the American
Title: Food for Thought: Investigating Brand Activism and the Positioning of FMCG Brands in the Plant-Based Space Seminar date: 2022-06-03 Course: BUSN39, Degree Project in Global Marketing - Master Level Authors: Jesper Karlsson & Sophie Weir Advisor: Javier Cenamor Keywords: Brand activism, brand positioning, plant-based brands, FMCG, brand identity Research questions: How do marketing profe
Purpose: This study aims to analyse how the founder as brand concept can affect Customer Based Brand Equity. The research aims to contribute insights on how founder representation can strengthen or weaken brand perception among consumers. Methodology: This research follows a quantitative, abductive design. Primary data were collected through a semi-structured focus group interview and secondary da
In the West Bank, a context of protracted displacement and institutional fragmentation, internally displaced persons remain structurally excluded from both humanitarian and national protection systems. Amid fragmented aid architecture and legal ambiguity, the Humanitarian-Development-Peace Nexus has been promoted as a framework for institutional coherence. Yet, it remains mired in a contested spac
This study investigates the concept of Selective Intentional Non-Compliance (SINC) in aviation. Deliberate, context-driven deviations from procedures motivated by safety in response to dynamic operational conditions. Based on a survey of 39 European commercial pilots, we analysed the prevalence, motivations, and perceived outcomes of procedural deviations. Nearly 43% reported deviating from s
This thesis explores how Swedish civil society organisations (CSOs) navigate transnational partnerships under civic space restrictions in India. Against the backdrop of the Foreign Contribution (Regulation) Act (FCRA) and shrinking Swedish aid, the study analyses how CSOs adapt to legal, political, and relational constraints. Drawing on four semi-structured interviews and guided by the concepts of
