Den pågående klimatförändringens effekter kan komma att bli förödande för människan och forskare menar att det är människan själv som till stor del är orsaken till detta miljöproblem. Forskarna menar att mänskliga utsläpp av växthusgaser från framförallt förbränning av fossila bränslen är orsaken till den globala uppvärmning vi kan se idag. Av denna anledning är det viktigt att insatser görs på alThe ongoing climate change may have devastating consequences all over the world. Most scientists are in agreement that the cause of this global environmental problem is anthropogenic releases of greenhouse gases, of which the main contributor is the combustion of fossil fuels. In order to limit these effects, it is imperative to take action immediately, globally as well as locally. Earlier resear

Macaneta spit is located about 30km north of Maputo, Mozambique, with the Indian Ocean on the east side and Incomáti River on the west side of the spit, composing an interesting and vulnerable area from a hydrodynamic point of view. Few studies regarding coastal processes are done in the area and changes of the morphology could result in breaching of the spit and thereby affect both accessibility

Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems have been used by organizations and companies the world throughout since 1990. Many universities have recently replaced their legacy systems with ERP systems to improve work efficiency. One solution available for universities by way of management information system is the Campus ERP system. The Campus ERP system helps universities incorporate all departme

Samhällets utveckling har bidragit till ett förändrat medielandskap vilket medfört ett engagemang som antagit nya former. Detta har skapat nya möjligheter för individer att uttrycka sitt samhällsengagemang, möjligheter som dock har börjat ifrågasättas. De senaste årens forskning inom engagemang på sociala medier visar en tvetydig bild av engagemanget där åsikterna går isär. Syftet med denna studieA click for a better world The media landscape has changed along with developments in society. This has resulted in new forms of engagement which has created new opportunities for individuals to express their civic engagement. However, these opportunities are now starting to be questioned. The last years research in social media engagement show an inconsistent picture of the engagement with compe

Popular Abstract in Swedish Joniserande strålning används ofta som behandling vid olika tumörsjukdomar i bukhåla och bäckenregion men är ibland förenad med biverkningar. Dessa kan uppkomma tidigt/akut, dvs i direkt anslutning till genomförd behandling eller sent, efter månaderår. Besvären kan vara av mycket varierande och ofta lindrig övergående karaktär såsom buksmärtor, diarré och blödningar fråGastrointestinal tract damage is an insidious feature in patients undergoing radiotherapy. Microvascular inflammation, including leukocyte and platelet recruitment as well as epithelial barrier dysfunction, are considered to constitute key components in the pathophysiology of radiation-induced enteropathy. The aim of this thesis was to investigate the basic mechanisms behind leukocyte-platelet-end

Aim We explored regional variations in the surgical management of patients with Dupuytren's contracture (DC) in 12 European countries using a surgeon survey and patient chart review. Methods Twelve countries participated: Denmark, Finland, Sweden (Nordic region); Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland (East); France, Germany, the Netherlands, UK (West); Italy, Spain (Mediterranean). For the survey, a ran

A double twin isothermal microcalorimeter has been designed and its performance has been tested experimentally. The calorimeter makes it possible to continuously and isothermally scan a solid sample in a broad range of relative vapor pressures at near-equilibrium conditions. The method is suited for measurements with water vapor as well as organic vapors and has been tested at temperatures between

The indoor climate in buildings has changed in the last decade due to more efficient climatic systems, floor heating systems and larger open floor areas with more natural light. All this has induced increasing ranges of relative humidity between different seasons. Also with decreasing relative humidity (in the winter 30-50% RH, in the summer 70-90% RH), floor-heating systems increase the temper

Introduction: The experiences of living with Parkinson's disease (PD) from the perspective of newly diagnosed persons with PD (PwPD) have not been previously described. Aim: This study aimed to gain a better understanding of the impact of living with the early stages of PD. Methods: A qualitative interview study was conducted among nine persons, seven men and two women, from southern Sweden. Parti

A prime function of the mucosal immune system is the production of secretory immunoglobulin (Ig) A antibodies. To initiate this, the organized lymphoid system is strategically located at sites where mucosal antigens are encountered. The follicle-associated epithelium (FAE) hosts specialized cells called M cells that effectively take up antigen. After transport of antigen via the FAE, the mucosal-a

The Máaz formation consists of the first lithologies in Jezero crater analyzed by the Mars 2020 Perseverance rover. This formation, investigated from Sols (Martian days) 1 to 201 and from Sols 343 to 382, overlies the Séítah formation (previously described as an olivine-rich cumulate) and was initially suggested to represent an igneous crater floor unit based on orbital analyses. Using SuperCam da

The thesis aims to contribute to the preservation of traditional medicinal knowledge of the Tacana Bolivian native tribe, as well as to the isolation and characterization of antiparasitic metabolites from plants used for the treatment of endemic diseases. A selection of medicinal plants, made in collaboration with the Tacana communities who decided which plants have a specific medicinal propose, w

Assessment of bilingual children in only one language fails to acknowledge their distributed linguistic competence and has been shown to overidentify language disorder in bilingual populations. However, other factors, sometimes associated with bilingualism, may also contribute to low results in language assessments. Our aim was to examine the impact of these factors on language abilities. We used

INTRODUCTION:: Understanding medical information and self-management ability is vital for good quality of life among transplant recipients. However, health literacy (HL) has never been investigated among lung transplant recipients. OBJECTIVE:: This study investigated HL among Swedish lung transplant recipients 1 to 5 years after lung transplantation in relation to recovery, fatigue, adherence, cog

Multiple biotic and abiotic stresses challenge plants growing in agricultural fields. Most molecular studies have aimed to understand plant responses to challenges under controlled conditions. However, studies on field-grown plants are scarce, limiting application of the findings in agricultural conditions. In this study, we investigated the composition of apoplastic proteomes of potato cultivar B
