Coming from a disadvantaged background can have negative impact on an individual’s educational trajectory. Some people however seem unaffected and cope well with the demands and challenges posed by school education, despite growing up in adverse conditions, a phenomenon termed academic resilience. While it is uncertain which underlying factors make some people more likely to circumvent unfavorable
Artikeln presenterar en databas med förmodligen de mest aktuella och tillförlitliga konsumentprisindexen (KPI) för ett stort urval av europeiska länder sedan 1870. Databasen utgör i huvudsak en sammanställning av existerande index men är ett bidrag genom att gå tillbaka till ursprungliga eller ignorerade källor. För vissa länder, där KPI saknats, konstrueras nya provisoriska index och vissa index This article presents a database with the probably most up-to-date and reliable consumer price indices for a large sample of European countries since 1870. The database is a compilation but a contribution by going back to original or ignored works. For some countries, where CPIs have been missing, new provisional indices are constructed, and some are reconstructed for critical periods. The article
Oxidative stress is employed to depict a series of responses detrimental to normal cellular functions resulting from an imbalance between intracellular oxidants, mainly reactive oxygen species and antioxidant defenses. Oxidative stress often contributes to the development of various diseases, including cancer, cardiovascular diseases, and neurodegenerative diseases. In this process, the relationsh
A novel phosphine-free ruthenium pincer complex based on an NNN pincer ligand has been prepared and fully characterized. The complex was subsequently employed as an efficient catalyst for the N-methylation of amines and the direct N-methylation of nitroarenes using methanol as a C1 source under mild reaction conditions following the borrowing-hydrogen approach. Both of the catalytic transformation
Detta är den tolfte årsrapporten från Svensk Dagfjärilsövervakning, ett nationellt miljöövervakningsprogram som koordineras av Lunds universitet på uppdrag av Naturvårdsverket sedan 2010. Svensk Dagfjärilsövervakning är ett samarbete mellan Sveriges Entomologiska Förening, Naturvårdsverket, Lunds universitet, Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet och Länsstyrelserna.

Acoustic impulse responses (IRs) are widely used to model sound propagation between two points in space. Being a point-to-point description, IRs are generally estimated based on input-output pairs for source and sensor positions of interest. Alternatively, the IR at an arbitrary location in space may be constructed based on interpolation techniques, thus alleviating the need of densely sampling th
Background: Lymphopenia, autoantibodies and activation of the type I interferon (IFN) system are common features in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). We speculate whether lymphocyte subset counts are affected by pregnancy and if they relate to autoantibody profiles and/or IFNα protein in SLE pregnancy. Methods: Repeated blood samples were collected during pregnancy from 80 women with SLE and 51
The magnitude of water-induced disasters is projected to increase in the coming decades. Yet, there is a substantial gap in the understanding of how local knowledge and Indigenous knowledge are employed to respond to climate change water-induced disasters. We examine this gap through a meta-review of literature published between 2014 and 2019 yielding 39 scholarly papers. The meta-review indicates

Measurements of the differential production cross-sections of prompt and non-prompt J/ψ and ψ(2S) mesons with transverse momenta between 8 and 360 GeV and rapidity in the range |y|
Even with optimally fitted hearing aids, many individuals with hearing impairment struggle to hear in situations with difficult listening conditions. Active Communication Education (ACE) is an interactive group rehabilitation program aimed at helping people with hearing loss communicate more effectively using communication strategies to better cope with everyday life. To increase accessibility and

This article argues that through the EU’s technology regulation, technological concepts permeate legal language. Such concepts may function as transplants, even irritants, causing tensions and uncertainties. As technology regulation is increasingly horizontal, i.e. obligating private and public actors alike, these newfound legal concepts remain disconnected from established public law vocabulary a
Luminosity determination within the ALICE experiment is based on the measurement, in van der Meer scans, of the cross sections for visible processes involving one or more detectors (visible cross sections). In 2015 and 2018, the Large Hadron Collider provided Pb-Pb collisions at a centre-of-mass energy per nucleon pair of √s NN= 5.02 TeV. Two visible cross sections, associated with particle detect
Rapporten sammanfattar fjärilsinventeringar utförda 2021 inom Biogeografisk uppföljning som drivs av Naturvårdsverket. I fjällområdet kunde totalt 45 ytor inventeras. Sammanlagt noterades minst 92 högnordiska blåvingar på 29 inventerade ytor och 37 dvärgpärlemorfjärilar på 15 ytor. Två ytor inventerades för fjällsilversmygare men ingen individ påträffades denna säsong. Svartfläckig blåvinge observ
α-Synuclein is a small neuronal protein enriched at presynaptic termini. It is hypothesized to play a role in neurotransmitter release and synaptic vesicle cycling, while the formation of α-synuclein amyloid fibrils is associated with several neurodegenerative diseases, most notably Parkinson’s Disease. The molecular mechanisms of both the physiological and pathological functions of α-synuclein re
