Many patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) experiencing L-DOPA-induced dyskinesia (LID) receive adjunct treatment with dopamine agonists, whose functional impact on LID is unknown. We set out to compare temporal and topographic profiles of abnormal involuntary movements (AIMs) after L-DOPA dose challenges including or not the dopamine agonist ropinirole. Twenty-five patients with PD and a history

The paper presents novel studies on the impact of different ignition control parameters on combustion stability and spark plug wear. First, experimental results from a 32.4-liter biogas fueled large bore single cylinder spark ignition engine are discussed. Two different ignition systems were considered in the experiment: a DC inductive and an AC capacitive. The spark plugs used in the experiment w

Highly anisotropic cellulose nanofibrils can solidify liquid water, creating self-supporting structures by incorporating a tiny number of fibrils. These fibrillar hydrogels can contain as much as 99.99 wt% water. The structure and mechanical properties of fibrillar networks have so far not been completely understood, nor how they solidify the bulk water at such low particle concentrations. In this

Qualitative and quantitative visualizations of transonic turbomachinery flows provide essential information on compressibility and Mach number effects on boundary layer development, shock-boundary layer interactions (SBLI) and trailing edge flows. Background Oriented Schlieren (BOS) is a relatively new optical technique that allows capturing unsteady density gradient fields through turbomachinery

Inquiries into properties of brain structure and function have progressed due to developments in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). To sustain progress in investigating and quantifying neuroanatomical details in vivo, the reliability and validity of brain measurements are paramount. Quality control (QC) is a set of procedures for mitigating errors and ensuring the validity and reliability of brain

In order to reduce parasite-induced mortality, hosts may be involved in mutualistic interactions in which the partner contributes to resistance against the parasite. The pea aphid, Acyrthosiphon pisum Harris (Hemiptera: Aphididae), harbours secondary bacterial endosymbionts, some of which have been reported to confer resistance against aphid parasitoids. Although this resistance often results in d

Companies spend a lot of attention and resources on something commonly referred to as ‘risk management’. Despite its apparent importance and intuitive appeal, corporate risk management is fraught with many difficulties, both on the conceptual and practical level. This may partly be explained by the fact that the role of risk management in increasing firm value is not very clear-cut. A contributing

Transportation noise is a ubiquitous urban exposure. In 2018, the World Health Organization concluded that chronic exposure to road traffic noise is a risk factor for ischemic heart disease. In contrast, they concluded that the quality of evidence for a link to other diseases was very low to moderate. Since then, several studies on the impact of noise on various diseases have been published. Also,

This article responds to the general neglect of legal culture in the study of climate mobilities. It presents a case study of climate mobilities in an unplanned settlement in Maputo, Mozambique, exploring how legal culture influenced residents’ decision-making processes as they navigated climate-related risks in their daily lives. We demonstrate that legal culture can facilitate climate mobilities

Major databases on western clothing and their thermal properties are available, but information on non-western clothing is lacking. A recent ASHRAE project 1504 TRP, Extension of the Clothing Insulation Database for Standard 55 and ISO 7730 dealt with the issue. Simultaneously, a co-operation study at Indian workplaces allowed us to acquire some sets of the traditional clothes used at construction

The spatial organisation of shopping and retail has been transformed significantly since the 1980s, commonly being conceptualised as ‘retail decentralisation.’ This shift involves the displacement of retail from town centres to out-of-town establishments and, more recently, to digital platforms, creating a noticeable vacuum. Consequently, the topic of the ‘death of town centres’ has become a signi

Background: Knee pain is often an early sign of knee osteoarthritis (KOA). Physical activities (PA) constitute the recommended regime to those affected. However, knee-loading PA at work is linked to an increased risk for KOA. The primary aim of this study was to investigate associations between knee pain and accelerometer-measured knee-loading PA, at work and leisure respectively. The secondary ai

Chromosomal translocations are key events in cancer, driving oncogenesis by disrupting and deregulating critical genes. While specific tumor-associated translocations are well studied, the frequencies and distributions of most remain unknown. Additionally, the role of chromosomal reshuffling in translocations has received little attention. This study presents data on the chromosomal involvement in

We report the discovery of two warm exoplanets orbiting the cool binary system TOI-2267, composed of the M5 (TOI-2267A) and M6 (TOI-2267B) stars, whose angular separation is 0.384 arcsec, corresponding to a projected distance of only about 8 au at 22 pc from the Solar System. To confirm the planetary nature of these objects, we combined photometry from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TE

Amyloid deposits from several human diseases have been found to contain membrane lipids. Co-aggregation of lipids and amyloid proteins in amyloid aggregates, and the related extraction of lipids from cellular membranes, can influence structure and function in both the membrane and the formed amyloid deposit. Co-aggregation can therefore have important implications for the pathological consequences

Popular Abstract in Swedish Sammanväxningar/ärrbildningar i buken och bröstkorgen efter kirurgiska ingrepp är mycket vanligt. Bland de patienter som opereras kommer cirka 95 % att få någon form av sammanväxningar. Nästan 1 procent av alla inläggningar på kirurgiska avdelningar och tre procent av alla bukoperationer anses i grunden vara orsakade av sammanväxningar i buken.

Seven-transmembrane G-protein-coupled receptors play a central role in physiology by facilitating cell communication through recognition of a wide range of ligands. Even more important, they represent important drug targets. Unfortunately, for many of these receptors the endogenous ligands, and hence their functions, remain to be identified. These receptors are referred to as "orphan" receptors. A

Abstract Nilsson, Nils-Erik, Write in Your Own Words: A Study of Learning Processes in Research Report Writing in School. The thesis examines sixty pupil texts produced in the school activity called pupil research at secondary level of a Swedish school where this activity was scheduled one day per week. The purpose of this thesis is to develop knowledge about the writing done by pupils under the
