Some seabirds we encounter only fleetingly, as they fly by as we walk along the beach, or perhaps meet far out at sea when we take a boat trip. Others though we are more familiar with, such as the ‘seagulls’ that many will not even turn their head to appreciate. Yet, all seabirds have remarkable stories to tell, and we are fortunate now to live at a time where we can follow individual birds as theMost seabirds breed colonially, at which time they make central-place foraging trips. Parents must collect food both for themselves and for egg production/chick-rearing. How should they forage? I followed five species across two sites in Sweden in the Baltic Sea using GPS and time-depth recorder (TDR) devices, giving information on both flight and diving activity. I use a movement ecology approach
Hur kommer framtidens matförsörjningssystem se ut? Hur bör den utformas så att allas behov av näringsrik och hållbar mat kan tillfredsställas på ett hållbart sätt? Är det rimligt att mat produceras på ett ställe och konsumeras på ett annat ställe? Är hållbar mat något som bara är förunnat de rika och de som har möjlighet att odla själva? En allt större del av Sveriges och världens befolkning bor d
The WCMM Friday club started in spring 2019 as a monthly scientific meeting for all clinical and preclinical PIs at WCMM Lund. It serves as a platform for presenting ongoing scientific work in each member’s research program. The informal format allows for open discussions, brainstorming and encourages new collaborations.

Ongoing pollinator declines threaten the production of many entomophilous crops. Recent reports that yields of animal-pollinated crops in India are increasing less than pollinator-independent ones suggest the occurrence of pollen limitation. We experimentally evaluated if production of the common food crop chilli benefits from insect pollination and if crop production is constrained by lack of pol

Access to water is a necessity for farmers for them to be able to produce food. This poses a problem in Jordan, one of the world’s driest countries, but also in Sweden, where after a drought in the summer of 2018 the state of the water levels was more critical than ever. Virtual reality (VR) has shown to be a tool with a good effect on students’ learning. In this work VR has been taken advantage o

Background:Recent cross-sectional genome-wide scans have reported associations of 97 independent loci with body mass index (BMI). In 3541 middle-aged adult participants from the GLACIER Study, we tested whether these loci are associated with 10-year changes in BMI and other cardiometabolic traits (fasting and 2-h glucose, triglycerides, total cholesterol, and systolic and diastolic blood pressures
OBJECTIVE: It has been proposed that remission should be maintained throughout the course of rheumatoid arthritis (RA); however, the evidence supporting this is limited. Physical function measured by the Health Assessment Questionnaire (HAQ) is a major outcome in RA, and HAQ is shown to be one of the strongest predictors of longterm outcomes. The purpose of this study was to investigate the physic
BACKGROUND: A prolonged QT interval plays a causal role in fatal arrhythmia and is known to be a risk factor for sudden cardiac death. Although diabetic patients with microvascular complications tend to have a longer QT interval, the therapeutic effect of diabetes on the QT interval remains unclear. Here, we assessed the changes in QT interval in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) who received mu
Popular Abstract in Swedish Syftet med avhandlingen är att undersöka hur och under vilka betingelser människor blir medlemmar och lämnar en organisation som Jehovas vittnen. Utifrån interaktionistisk teori undersöks aktiva och före detta medlemmars ingångar och utgångar när det gäller organisationen ”Watchtower Bible and Tract Society”, i Sverige benämnd Jehovas vittnen. Utifrån en empiri av uppreThis dissertation seeks to describe and investigate the entering and leaving of a highly structured and hierarchical religious community, exemplified in this case by the Jehovah's Witnesses. The respondents in this study were chosen from both active members of the Jehovah's Witnesses in Sweden and those who have left the organisation for personal reasons. Repeated interviews with ten active membe
BACKGROUND: Bronchodilator responsiveness (BDR) in asthma involves both the central and peripheral airways but is primarily relieved with beta-2-agonists and evaluated by spirometry. To date, antimuscarinics can be added as a reliever medication in more severe asthma. We hypothesize that combining both short-acting beta-2 agonist (SABA) and short-acting muscarinic antagonist (SAMA) could also impr
Aims/hypothesis: The aim of this study was to assess the interaction between genetic risk and lifestyle intervention on the occurrence of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and postpartum diabetes. Methods: The RADIEL study is an RCT aimed at prevention of GDM and postpartum diabetes through lifestyle intervention. Participants with a BMI ≥30 kg/m2 and/or prior GDM were allocated to intervention

During that visit Barba travelled extensively throughout the cou
Introduction: Data regarding real-world impact on cancer clinical research during COVID-19 are scarce. We analysed the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the conduct of paediatric cancer phase I–II trials in Europe through the experience of the Innovative Therapies for Children with Cancer (ITCC).

Popular Abstract in English The sesquiterpene lactones is an important group of natural products, and they are present in many medicinal plants. Their most important biological activities are anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer activity, although for many decades their potential use as drugs was dismissed. The main reason for this was their alkylating capacity, reacting with thiol functions in proteDamsin (1) is a natural sesquiterpene lactone (SL) isolated from Ambrosia arborescens Mill., a plant used in the Andes as antiinflammatory medicine. This natural product is an inhibitor of NF- κB, a protein complex that controls the transcription of many genes in mammalian cells, and has a potential for standing model for the development of new anti-cancer lead structures. In order to improve the
