Ystads kommun arbetar med en fördjupning av översiktsplanen för staden Ystad med omnejd. Ystads havsnära läge gör att klimatförändringen kommer att innebära stora utmaningar. Stigande havsnivåer väntas leda till ökade erosions- och översvämningsrisker i kustnära områden. Samtidigt är efterfrågan på havsnära boende stor och kommunen planerar att bygga ut staden mot havet.

In the 2011 census of India, more than 2500 settlements have been newly inducted into the category of ‘census towns’ – the lowest size-class of urban settlements in India. This is a staggering figure in light of the observation that a comparable number constituted the total number of all urban settlements recorded since 1900. Furthermore, it has been revealed through aerial images, that a vast maj

Leaders of today need to achieve well in terms of task performance, perceiving low stress, and having high levels of work engagement. One may ask whether trait-based leadership resource factors can be identified and how such resource factors might relate to task performance, perceived stress, and work engagement. Our aim was to test the hypothesis, derived from Hobfoll’s motivational Conservation

This chapter examines cultural exchange, change, and continuity through the lens of population movement: migration, immigration, refugees, displacement, diaspora, and the modes of transportation that brought diverse people into direct engagement with each other.

Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease that affects 0.1 to nearly 1% of the population, dependent on the country, with its highest incidence around 10–15 years of age. The incidence has increased over time, approximately doubling over the past 2–3 decades. The incidence varies across the world, with the highest among populations of (Northern) European origin and the lowest in Japan. Most diabeti

This article examines the idea of degrowth, a concept in political ecology used to envision a democratically planned downscaling of production and consumption in affluent regions of the world as a means to avoid ecological breakdown, decrease inequality, and improve quality of life. Since its inception at the beginning of the 2000s in France, the idea of degrowth has sparked a worldwide social mov

Xerostomi, är en kliniskdiagnos för muntorrhet. Muntorrheten kan uppkomma till följd av åldersförändringar, strålnings- och kemikalieexponering eller en inflammation i spottkörtlarna. Extracellulära vesiklar (EVs) är små vesiklar (i nanometerstorlek) vilka normalt används vid cellers kommunikation med varandra. EVs har visats ha positiv effekt i djurförsök vid skada eller sjukdom i tex lunga, hjärXerostomia (dry mouth symptoms) is a group of incurable debilitating conditions of salivary glands caused by aging, radiation/chemical exposure, or aberrant inflammation in the salivary glands. During this PhD thesis, we aimed to evaluate whether cell-derived strategies (e.g., extracellular vesicles, EVs) could be a potential new therapy to ameliorate salivary gland injury and restore function aft
