Parkinson’s Disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative and progressive disorder characterised by intracytoplasmic inclusions called Lewy bodies (LB) and degeneration of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra (SN). Aggregated α-synuclein (αSYN) is known to be the main component of the LB. It has also been reported to interact with several proteins and organelles. Galectin-3 (GAL3) is known to have a
Online engagement with criminal cases is often interpreted in either punitive or crowdsourcing terms, but interactionist and ethnomethodological analyses can disclose other and more fundamental aspects. This chapter looks closely at a particular practice among posters on the Swedish platform Flashback: that of summing up the discussion ‘so far’. To sum up is a delicate and vulnerable act of rhetorOnline engagement with criminal cases is often interpreted in either punitive or crowdsourcing terms, but interactionist and ethnomethodological analyses can disclose other and more fundamental aspects.

Using electronic health records data and machine learning to guide future decisions needs to address challenges, including 1) long/short-term dependencies and 2) interactions between diseases and interventions. Bidirectional transformers have effectively addressed the first challenge. Here we tackled the latter challenge by masking one source (e.g., ICD10 codes) and training the transformer to pre
The food industry stands as one of the most vital manufacturing sectors globally, with an ever-increasing reliance on digitalization and technology-driven processes. However, this advancement comes with an inherent risk of cyberattacks, encompassing data breaches and system disruptions, which can severely impact production and disrupt the entire food supply chain. Consequently, such cyberthreats c
Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) has gained recent popularity mainly due to its attractive nutritional profile and its ability to grow under extreme conditions such as salinity, acidity, drought, flooding, and frost as well as the functionality of its component. Starch is the main component of quinoa grain which constitutes up to 60% of the dry grain and plays a crucial role in the functional pr
Financial accounting is a process that goes from the company’s transactions, through the accounting system and production of financial statements, to the use and analysis of the information by external parties. The analysis of financial statements is the basis for many important decisions. This book explains the fundamental role of financial accounting in the economy.The book covers both technical
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most common neurodegenerative disease. Most cases of AD are considered idiopathic and likely due to a combination of genetic, environmental, and lifestyle-related risk factors. Despite occurring decades before the typical age of an AD diagnosis, early-life stress (ELS) has been suggested to have long-lasting effects that may contribute to AD risk and pathogenesis. S
Många arbetsgivare känner inte till att de redan idag använder sig av artificiell intelligens, AI, eller annat automatiserat beslutsfattande. Det visar den rapport om AI och risker för diskriminering i arbetslivet som Diskrimineringsombudsmannen, DO, publicerar idag. Att arbetsgivare har denna kunskap är avgörande för att arbeta förebyggande för att motverka diskriminering vid tillämpning av tekni
PTSD symptomatology is known to be associated with executive dysfunction. Inhibitory control is a core component of executive functioning, and inhibitory skills are essential both for adequate functioning in everyday life and important in situations following trauma. The aim of the present study was to examine the relationship between trauma exposure, inhibitory control and PTSD symptomatology in
Group A streptococcus (GAS) is a major bacterial pathogen responsible for both local and systemic infections in humans. The molecular mechanisms that contribute to disease heterogeneity remain poorly understood. Here we show that the transition from a local to a systemic GAS infection is paralleled by pathogen-driven alterations in IgG homeostasis. Using animal models and a combination of sensitiv
Background and Aims: The triggering factors of sepsis-induced myocardial dysfunction (SIMD) are poorly understood and are not addressed by current treatments. S100A8/A9 is a pro-inflammatory alarmin abundantly secreted by activated neutrophils during infection and inflammation. We investigated the efficacy of S100A8/A9 blockade as a potential new treatment in SIMD. Methods: The relationship betwee
To meet the ever-increasing user demand, eleven of the fifteen European Spallation Source (ESS) instruments under construction aim to offer polarised neutrons for user experiments. They include an imaging instrument, a SANS instruments, two reflectometers, three diffractometers, and four spectrometers. In conjunction with in-kind contributions and instrumentation grants, the ESS Polarisation Proje
Aim: To investigate psychosocial factors in painful TMD (pTMD) which could have consequences for mastering chronic pain. Methods: Our study included 22 patients (20 women, 2 men) with pTMD, refractory to conservative treatment, and 19 healthy controls. The control group was matched for gender, age, and educational level, and IQ tested on the Wechsler Abbreviated Scale of Intelligence. Neurocogniti
Background: Good care of the dying has been defined as being able to die in the place of your choice, free from pain, cared for with dignity and supported by the best possible care. This definition underpinned the development of the ‘10/40 Model’ of care for the dying, in 2013. The model includes 10 ‘Key Principles’ that underpin 40 ‘Core Outcomes’ of care. It was necessary to update consensus on
The transport of heat from hot to cold mediums is called heat transfer. It can be used for either heating or cooling machines, electronics food, etc. in industry. Examples are the cooling of a car engine or recovering heat from a power plant turbine. In these types of applications, it is practical to use fluids of high heat capacity as mediums for transferring heat as this means they that they are
Syftet med detta arbete är att undersöka fenomenet frivillig enkelhet i en svensk samtida kontext. Detta fenomen innebär att en individ frångår den etablerade sociala ordningen och samhällets inneboende krav på lönearbete, för att leva ett liv i större frihet, enkelhet och med mer tid över till det som individen tycker är meningsfullt. Arbetets kärna är att studera individens vardagliga erfare
