The high-prevalence blood group antigen, Sda, had been puzzling blood bankers and transfusionists for at least a decade when it was reported in 1967. The characteristic mix of agglutinates and free red blood cells (RBCs), caused by anti-Sda, is seen with the RBCs from 90 percent of individuals of European descent. However, only 2-4 percent of individuals are truly Sd(a-) and may produce anti-Sda.
Based on a review of the correspondence between Swedish diplomats in the Baltic States and the Swedish Foreign Ministry for the years 1938–1940, the purpose of this article is, firstly, to elaborate a framework for the analysis of intelligence reporting in times of crisis, secondly, to investigate how the Swedish diplomats in the Baltic States went about to report intelligence, and thirdly, to try
In this article some initial results from the projects "Bronsildems deglar" (en. "Bronze Age melting crucibles") and "Deglarna frin Bokenäs" (en. "The crucibles from Bokenäs") are presented. The aim of the projects is to expand our knowledge of the production, use and discard of technical ceramics in south Sweden using laboratory analysis. This article describes the results and conclusions made bIn this article some initial results from the projects "Bronsildems deglar" (en.

Recently, Ombashi et al. published a systematic review aiming to identify the pitfalls in the development and implementation as well as factors influencing long-term success of a multidisciplinary, international registry for cleft care on a global scale. The purpose of this letter to the editor is to highlight that the review failed to include the Swedish quality registry for patients born with cl
Matching donor and recipient blood groups based on red blood cell (RBC) surface ABO glycans and antibodies in plasma is crucial to avoid potentially fatal reactions during transfusions. Enzymatic conversion of RBC glycans to the universal group O is an attractive solution to simplify blood logistics and prevent ABO-mismatched transfusions. The gut symbiont Akkermansia muciniphila can degrade mucin
Introduction: With over 360 blood group antigens in systems recognized, there are antigens, such as RhD, which demonstrate a quantitative reduction in antigen expression due to nucleotide variants in the non-coding region of the gene that result in aberrant splicing or a regulatory mechanism. This study aimed to evaluate bioinformatically predicted GATA1-binding regulatory motifs in the RHD gene f

Groundwater hydraulics and aquifer processes are largely investigated using techniques that involve some kind of borehole test pumping. Such techniques are well established in the engineering and scientific community but are resource demanding. Time series analysis offer a collection of alternative methods that can be used to evaluate groundwater processes like recharge by using natural groundwate
Recent research has indicated that machining of titanium alloys with uncoated cemented tungsten carbide tools fulfil the criteria for Kirkendall porosity. If this occurs during machining, it could contribute to the type and rate of tool wear, compromising the tools structural integrity close to the edge line within the contact zone. In this study, voids were observed at the tool-workpiece contact
Aims The Trump movement displays several key features of a populist movement with a strong leader and a broad unorganized base of followers opposed to a per-ceived liberal elite establishment. In 2024, Trump gained strong support from strata with low income, low education and Hispanic men, previously not strong support-ers of Republicans. This study investigates the preconditions for a populist mo
Misfolding, self-assembly, and subsequent deposition of amyloid β plaques and tau tangles are closely associated with Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and its neurodegenerative processes, driving healthy neurons into a diseased state. At present, AD is the most widespread form of dementia, causing profound personal and familial hardship as well as imposing a substantial societal economic burden.Currently,The purpose of the work that forms the basis of this thesis has been to investigate fundamental properties of amyloid β and tau self-assembly and their solubility. The results of this research are presented as five research articles. In Paper I, a solubility assay for determining the solubility of amyloid proteins is developed and its use demonstrated for the Aβ40 peptide. Paper II finds that tau
Notch wear often determines tool life when machining stainless steel. Chemical Vapour Deposited (CVD) Al2O3/Ti(C,N) coated cemented carbide tools are the first recommendation for turning of stainless steel. The CVD coating plays a vital role in reducing and delaying tool wear progress. Hence, it is essential to understand the interaction between the initiation of notch wear and the coating degrada
In stainless steel turning, cutting tool life is often limited by excessive localised damage at the depth of cut line, known as notch wear. Previous research revealed that notch wear in CVD (chemical vapour deposition) Al2O3/Ti(C,N) coated WC-Co tools begins as a coating brittle fracture already after 0.3 m of cutting. This paper investigates the impact of cutting tools and workpiece materials on
Tool wear intensity is one of the major performance and economic indicators of metal cutting processes. Understanding and control of tool wear and its governing mechanisms enables effective and sustainable manufacturing. Known wear mechanisms include abrasive, adhesive, chemical and diffusional, where their individual or combined action leads to an overall tool degradation. In this study, we prese

INTRODUCTION: Ageing right care(fully) is a transnational research study which explores and maps an understanding of the care pathways between ageing in place and hospital at home policy and practices for older adults in Israel, the Netherlands and Sweden. The countries are suited to be compared where they have growing, ageing populations, a focus on healthcare reform and several policies to reduc
