Purpose: The aim of the study was to assess associations between intake of combined soft drinks (sugar sweetened and artificially sweetened) and fruit and vegetable juices and the risk of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), intrahepatic bile duct (IHBC) and biliary tract cancers (GBTC) using data from the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition cohort of 477,206 participants from

In order to keep up with the constant demand for higher data rates, the fifth generation of mobile communication (5G) introduced the use of mm-wave carrier frequencies from 24 to 71 GHz. Plenty of new frequency spectrum then became available, which has allowed for channel bandwidths of several hundreds of MHz. 6G is projected to continue this trend with even higher carrier frequencies and wider ba

Since time immemorial, humans have been trying to answer questions about many phenomena, especially those related to health, by creating numerous imaginary questions. One of these common questions relates to the existence of huge numbers of small organisms that live with humans, and whose number inside the human body is a thousand times greater than outside it. Today, many scientists consider all

Deep Eutectic Solvents (DES) are a type of emerging solvent that are gaining in popularity for their versatile and adjustable properties, and components that can be safe, biodegradable and sustainably sourced. Here we investigate the interactions that give rise to their unique properties.The first paper looks at the question of how chirality in a component effects the DES structure. Many DES compo

BackgroundChildren and adolescents treated for a brain tumor suffer from more fatigue than survivors of other types of childhood cancer. As tumor location might be predictive of fatigue, our aim was to investigate the longitudinal development of fatigue in children with brain tumors and risk factors for fatigue separately for different tumor locations.MethodsFatigue was assessed 1235 times for 425

CO2 management, capturing CO2 from industry processes or removing CO2 from the atmosphere, is increasingly presented as a necessity for climate. Scandinavian countries are at the forefront of developing carbon capture and storage (CCS) technology. We reviewed the scientific literature on CCS in Scandinavia to identify and analyse prevalent imaginaries for the role of this technology in the region.

During recent years, research on authenticated encryption has been thriving through two highly active and practice-motivated research directions: provably secure leakage-resilience schemes and key- or context-commitment security. However, the intersection of both fields had been overlooked until very recently. In ToSC 1/2024, Struck and Weish\"aupl studied generic compositions of Encryption scheme

Luminescence properties of undoped Li6Y(BO3)3 (LYB) crystals grown by the Bridgman method as well as undoped and praseodymium doped LYB crystals grown by the Czochralski method were studied under excitation by ultraviolet light, synchrotron radiation and electron beam in the temperature region of 5–300 K. The emission bands peaking at 4.8, 3.76 and 2.95 eV were found in undoped Czochralski-grown c

In Amazonia, interfluvial groups such as the Naduhup (Makú) peoples of the northwest Amazon have tended to be less visible than riverine peoples in the historical record, but are also more likely to maintain their cultural and linguistic identity over time. Hence the languages of these groups may offer insights into Indigenous histories that have otherwise been largely overlooked or obliterated. L

In this study, we examine the way access to welfare provision for migrants is articulated discursively among three right-of-center parties in Sweden. For this, we suggest two theoretical advances. First, deploying the concept of the right-wing continuum, we highlight the gradual and reciprocal alignment between mainstream right-of-center and radical-right populist parties. Second, by resorting to

Argonauts of industry: Knowledge gathering and technologies in use in Sweden’s industrial breakthroughIn this article we explore how knowledge transfer about industrial production and new technologies affected Sweden’s rapid industrialisation in the second half of the nineteenth century. Focusing on two case studies taken from the Swedish glass and gunpowder industries, we argue for the importanceArgonauts of industry: Knowledge gathering and technologies in use in Sweden’s industrial breakthroughIn this article we explore how knowledge transfer about industrial production and new technologies affected Sweden’s rapid industrialisation in the second half of the nineteenth century.

It is widely interpreted that there is a significant link between climate cooling at the Eocene-Oligocene Transition(EOT; ~34 Ma) and subsequent diatom proliferation in the world’s oceans during the mid to late Cenozoic. Yet,our understanding of biogenic silica flux through the EOT interval is based on limited data from a few sites, andthere are many complications in making a meaningful comparison

Every Sunday, sermons are delivered in over a thousand churches within the Church of Sweden. In each of them, theology is not just applied but also ”done”, or formulated. Using the concept of “theologizing” and building on theories from two professors in homiletics, David Schnasa Jacobsen and Leonora Tubbs Tisdale, this thesis empirically investigates in what ways preachers in the Lutheran Church
