Background: SepIVA has been reported to be an essential septation factor in Mycolicibacterium smegmatis and Mycobacterium tuberculosis. It is a coiled-coil protein with similarity to DivIVA, a protein necessary for polar growth in members of the phylum Actinomycetota. Orthologues of SepIVA are broadly distributed among actinomycetes, including in Streptomyces spp. Results: To clarify the role of S
Background and Aim: Poor food habits with insufficient intake of micronutrients have been described in irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), which could be of importance for development of gastrointestinal and extraintestinal symptoms. The study aims were to examine intake and plasma/serum levels of micronutrients in IBS and whether these factors were associated with symptoms and restrictions and to stu
Introduction: Atopic asthma and allergic rhinitis are common chronic inflammatory diseases affecting lower airways and nasal mucosa, respectively. Several reports demonstrated frequent co-occurrence of these two diseases, however, the exact molecular mechanism has not been described. The present study aimed to investigate if small non-coding RNA might be responsible for the co-occurrence of asthma
This study acknowledges that home is a central and valenced place for most people, and therefore it is assumed that (a) the content in people’s general category for home issues can be activated easily, particularly by various home-related stimuli, and that (b) the affective charge of such content can have a valence-congruent impact on evaluations of home-related stimuli. These assumptions were the
The ways in which expectations for the future shape how actors and organizations make sense of the present has received growing interest and attention among science and technology scholars – with particular attention being paid to the role of expectations and prediction making in technology and finance. Nevertheless, while the imaginaries involved in the futures described by tech-entrepreneurs and

Being aware of nature and its life-supporting functions helps our societies to operate more sustainably.
Background: Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is foremost characterized by β-amyloid (Aβ)-extracellular plaques, tau-intraneuronal fibrillary tangles (NFT), and neuroinflammation, but over the last years it has become evident that peripheral inflammation might also contribute to the disease. AD patients often demonstrate increased levels of circulating proinflammatory mediators and altered antibody levels
INTRODUCTION: Despite having few vascular risk factors, people with Down syndrome (DS) have MRI evidence of cerebrovascular disease (CVD) and neuroinflammation that worsens with Alzheimer's disease (AD) severity. We investigated whether markers of CVD and inflammation are associated with AD-related diagnostic progression in people with DS. METHODS: We included 149 participants (mean age [SD] = 44.
In Singapore, children’s education is often presented as “an overriding and all-consuming concern,” driven by intense competition for grades and school admissions (Waters, 2015: 290). However, the desire for academic excellence as a pathway to better lives is not as straightforward as it may seem. Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork with Singaporean families, this paper explores parents’ affective a
Levodopa-induced dyskinesia (LID) is a debilitating complication of symptomatic therapy in Parkinson's disease. Although there is compelling evidence that striatal pathophysiology is a major driver of LID, the specific circuit mechanisms governing its expression remain obscure. To address this gap, molecular, cellular, and behavioral strategies were used to interrogate circuits in a mouse model of
Smart grids are often advertised as more environmentally sustainable compared to their “conventional” counterparts. What is highlighted then is their potential to save energy and integrate more renewables into the grid, thus decreasing CO2-emissions. This thesis investigates two less discussed aspects of smart grids, those of circular economy and social sustainability. An initial literature review
This study emerges from the rising concern that the now widespread faith in renewable energy systems—as a way to deal with the ecological crisis—may be unfounded. Drawing on inspiration from the global peasant movement Via Campesina and their hypothesis that small-scale agriculture is a strategy for “cooling down the Earth”, this study seeks to discuss the reasons for the widespread belief in rene
Since the 1990-s music has become more and more polished, to the point where it is almost too perfect. Are we obsessed with perfection, both in structure and pitch? Auto-tune, playback and excessive compression are tools used in all genres, but most commonly seen in pop music. What is the fascination with everything being perfect and flawless? Is not the human part of music important today? This
This thesis investigates how AI-generated music challenges traditional systems of cultural legitimacy, identity, and musical taste. Drawing on Bourdieu’s theory of cultural fields and symbolic capital, and supplemented by Simon Frith’s insights into authenticity and identity performance, the study examines how emerging technologies reconfigure creative authority within platform-driven environments
This thesis analyses how individuals stance towards climate change reduction is affected by their view on immigration as well on their education background. It is quantitative research where data from the European Social Survey round 10 is analyzed through three multiple regression analyses. What being found was that both the immigration sentiment and the level of educational achievement were of s
Title: When the Map Is Wet, Navigation Still Depends on It: Organizational Sensemaking and Digital Infrastructure Dependency Course: BUSN49, Degree Project in Managing People, Knowledge and Change – Master Level Authors: Clara Gerber and Ember Truppelli Supervisor: John Murray Purpose: This study examines how individuals within organizations make sense of digital infrastructure dependency when the
