A new species of Diglyphus Walker, D. albifemur Liu, Hansson & Guo, sp. nov., is described based on extensive material from China collected from 2016 to 2024. The entire material included here has been reared from agromyzid leafminers (Diptera, Agromyzidae), mainly from Phytomyza vitalbae Kaltenbach, mining leaves of Clematis orientalis L. The new species is morphologically similar to the Euro
This work introduces a sustainable and versatile synthesis platform for nanosized metal–ceria catalysts with tunable composition, directly relevant to renewable energy conversion and CO2 utilization. The method enables parallel preparation of multiple catalysts in a single batch with high yield and reproducibility, while reducing environmental impact by 92% compared to conventional approaches, as
Globular clusters host complex stellar populations whose chemical signatures suggest early (-) retention and reprocessing of stellar ejecta, yet direct evidence for intracluster gas is lacking. Here we present a unified theoretical framework for the evolution of gas in young globular clusters, and its implications for the production of multiple stellar populations. We show that low-velocity AGB wi
Parasitic freshwater mussels are endangered ecosystem engineers with an array of impacts on multiple trophic levels and life stages. While the impacts of adult mussels on separate trophic levels have been studied, few have directly tested how adult mussels can impact trophic interactions, or investigated the impacts of the parasitic mussel larvae (glochidia) on such interactions. We present a labo
Although the moth fauna of South Sweden is relatively well known, information about the habitat preferences of species is scarce. To fill this gap and document the relative richness and conservation value of different habitats, 32,683 moth were caught in light traps at >200 sites in Central Skåne (prov. Scania). The relative frequency of species, major taxonomic groups and species with different f
Time-of-flight neutron transmission and diffraction measurements were performed on four solid beryllium metal grades using the HIPPO neutron time-of-flight diffractometer equipped with an energy-resolved neutron imaging detector at Los Alamos National Laboratory. Analysis of the extracted total neutron cross sections from the transmission measurements revealed a reduction in the coherent elastic s
Galectin-3 (Gal3) is a multifunctional lectin expressed and released by microglia, where it influences diverse processes in both homeostasis and disease. To dissect its intracellular and extracellular roles, we generated Gal3-deficient BV2 microglial cells and systematically assessed how genetic deletion and exogenously added recombinant Gal3 shape microglial physiology. Gal3 deletion increased ce
This review examines how coordination is infrastructured in digital health ecosystems where technologies, institutions, and practices intersect across organisational and professional boundaries. Drawing on a systematic analysis of the literature, we identify three interdependent infrastructural layers: technological, informational, and institutional, and four recurring processes through which coor
Hepatitis B virus (HBV), hepatitis delta virus (HDV), and hepatitis C virus (HCV) remain leading drivers of chronic viral hepatitis, cirrhosis, hepatocellular carcinoma, and liver-related mortality. This ESCMID Study Group for Viral Hepatitis (ESGVH) narrative review summarizes recent advances and expert perspectives in the field. For HBV, emerging biomarkers such as quantitative HBs antigen, HBV
BACKGROUND: – The clinical use of risk scores to guide treatment decisions and improve clinical outcomes has rarely been prospectively evaluated. This study aimed to evaluate whether a biomarker-based ABC-AF risk score–guided multidimensional treatment strategy improves long-term outcomes in patients with AF. METHODS: – The multicenter, registry-based, randomized, controlled, open-label study enro
Background: The 2015 Lancet Commission on global surgery identified surgery and anaesthesia as indispensable parts of holistic health-care systems. However, COVID-19 exposed the fragility of planned surgical services around the world, which have also been neglected in pandemic recovery planning. This study aimed to develop and validate a novel index to support local elective surgical system streng
Hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) is classified as a Group 1 human carcinogen and increases the risk of lung cancer because it can generate reactive oxygen species, induce DNA damage, and trigger epigenetic alterations Occupational Cr(VI) exposure can occur during different work processes, but when this PhD study was initiated, the exposure level to Cr(VI) at Swedish workplaces and its health risk were
I detta arbete undersöktes potentialen av en biofilmsprocess med suspenderade bärare (MBBR) som efternitrifikation att minska halterna av ammoniumkväve som släpps ut med det behandlade avloppsvattnet. För detta genomfördes en studie i en pilotanläggning vid Ellinge avloppsre-ningsverk där två parallella reaktorer med olika driftsätt jämfördes, varav den ena periodvis ut-sattes för högre belastningThis study investigated the potential of a moving bed biofilm reactor (MBBR) process as a post-nitrification step to reduce ammonium nitrogen concentrations in treated wastewater. The study was conducted in a pilot plant at Ellinge wastewater treatment plant, where two parallel reactors with different operating strategies were compared, one of which was periodically subjected to higher loading thr
This study examined how Indigenous and local knowledge (ILK) contributes to social-ecological resilience in Libertad, Antique, Northwest Panay Island, Philippines, through two subsistence livelihoods: Bariw (screw palm) harvesting/weaving and freshwater shrimp fishing. Using a qualitative research approach involving participant observations, key informant interviews, focus group discussions, and c
Kelp forests are among the most productive ecosystems on Earth, releasing detritus year-round through direct blade erosion, storm-induced detachment, wave breakage, seasonal shedding, as well as indirect urchin grazing. Fragmental kelp detritus is transported from the euphotic zone to deeper parts of the ocean such as fjords, where decomposition rates are very low and detritus may contribute to lo
I den här uppsatsen argumenterar jag för att mode är ett symbolsystem som är mer likt språket än vad konsten är likt språket. Med andra ord så menar jag att mode överlag befinner sig närmare konsten än vad det gör språket, men på skalan mellan språk och konst så befinner sig mode snäppet närmare språket. Med utgångspunkt i Nelson Goodmans teorier om symbolsystem, Ingrids Loscheks applikation av Ni
Detta examensarbete syftar till att identifiera företag som äger sina verksamhetsfastigheter samt analysera deras förutsättningar att genomföra energieffektiviserande åtgärder. Studien baseras på kommunal registerdata, geografisk analys via Geoportalen samt kvalitativ verifiering genom platsbesök och semistrukturerade företagsintervjuer. Resultaten indikerar att ägarstruktur har stor betydelseEnergy efficiency initiatives targeting businesses often face challenges related to identifying actors with the authority to implement measures. This study examines how property ownership influences companies’ ability to undertake energy efficiency actions. The study was conducted as a case study in Lund municipality and applied a two-step methodology consisting of registry-based mapping and qual
Mienstrukturen, en delvis vattenfylld sänka i södra Sverige, bekräftades vara ett astroblem på 1960-talet. Strukturen bildades runt 120 miljoner år sedan. Dålig exponering av berggrunden i och runt sjön, på grund av tjocka lager glaciala sediment, har gjort geomorfologisk kartering och klassificering av impaktbergarter till en utmaning. Data angående kraterdiameter och morfologiska särdrag som exeThe Mien structure, a partly lake-filled depression in southern Sweden, was confirmed to be an impact structure in the 1960s. The structure formed about 120 Myr ago. Poor exposure of outcropping bedrock in and around the lake, due to a thick cover of glacial sediments, has made morphological mapping and impactite classification challenging. Constrains on crater diameter and morphological features
