Breast cancer incidence has markedly increased in Western countries for reasons that are not entirely understood. We characterized periodic and age-specific incidence trends of breast cancer in immigrants who migrated from low incidence areas to Sweden. The incidence in immigrants was compared to that in native Swedes and standardized incidence ratios (SIRs) were calculated, based on the Swedish F

Popular Abstract in Swedish En cell förökar sig genom delning. Före delningen måste den växa och fördubbla cellinnehållet för att det ska finnas material till två nya celler. En cellcykel är de händelser som sker från det en cell delat sig tills den delar sig igen [Fig 1]. En cellcykel kan delas in i fyra faser som cellen måste genomgå innan den är mogen att dela sig. Under första fasen, G1, tillvThe polyamines - putrescine, spermidine and spermine - are polycations found within cells. They have been shown to be essential for optimal cell proliferation and cell survival. Cells maintain their polyamine levels in a well-regulated system involving biosynthesis, catabolism and uptake/excretion. The biosynthetic enzymes - ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) and S-adenosylmethionine decarboxylase (Ado

Much research on SMEs is aimed at researching SMEs after the fact that they have become SMEs. However all SMEs as well as larger companies start as an idea in the head or heads of one or many persons - the prospective entrepreneurs. The purpose of this paper is to investigate how SMEs can be created by transforming ideas into real companies. More specifically we will investigate if and how Univers

Opaline silica deposits on Mars may be good target sites where organic biosignatures could be preserved. Potential analogues on Earth are provided by ancient cherts containing carbonaceous material (CM) permineralized by silica. In this study, we investigated the ultrastructure and chemical characteristics of CM in the Rhynie chert (c. 410 Ma, UK), Bitter Springs Formation (c. 820 Ma, Australia),

Gangliosides are sialic acid-containing glycosphingolipids that often are present in increased amounts on tumor cells. Since the gangliosides are hydroxy-acids, they can form lactones. The lactones have been suspected to be more immunogenic than the open forms, but are in practise poor immunogens due to their ease of hydrolysis. This thesis describes the synthesis of the hydrolytically stable lact

Objective Second language learning continues to be a field of growing interest both in academia and everyday life. As such, a more comprehensive understanding of the best learning methods remains an important area of focus. This study aimed to investigate single-session vocabulary acquisition and neural underpinnings of language learning through Diffusion Tensor Imaging (DTI), in relation to immer

LEVTEK SWEDEN AB håller på att lansera en ny typ av elektriskt drivet fordon vid namn LEVKARTEN. Produkten ska med sina fyra hjul vara lätt och stabil att köra samtidigt som den erbjuder goda lastmöjligheter både inomhus och utomhus. Fordonet är utrustat med avancerade funktioner som möjliggör ökad säkerhet samt semi-autonom eller autonom körning. Innan Levtek lanserar deras nya produkt, vill de uThe start-up company LEVTEK is launching a new ultralight electric utility vehicle called the LEVKART. The Levkart uses a combination of robotics and AI-technology to offer semi-autonomous or autonomous riding and usage. The purpose of the vehicle is to serve as an alternative to cargo bikes and electric scooters designed for easy usage and as a more sustainable option to fossil-based transport. T

Increasing global production fragmentation allows for emission displacement, which may counteract advanced nation’s domestic reductions of production-related carbon emissions. Consequently, input-output analysis has become a common tool to measure countries’ carbon footprint and emission trade balances based on national consumption instead of domestically produced CO2 emissions. Nevertheless, trad

The Greenland Ice Core Chronology 2005 (GICC05) is a time scale based on annual layer counting of high-resolution records from Greenland ice cores. Whereas the Holocene part of the time scale is based on various records from the DYE-3, the GRIP, and the NorthGRIP ice cores, the glacial part is solely based on NorthGRIP records. Here we present an 18 ka extension of the time scale such that GICC05

Precipitation data at high spatio-temporal resolution are essential for hydrological, meteorological, and ecological research in local basins and regions. The coarse spatial resolution (0.25°) of Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) 3B43 product is insufficient for practical requirements. In this paper, a multivariable geographically weighted regression (GWR) downscaling method was developed

Incidence of differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC) varies considerably between ethnic groups, with particularly high incidence rates in Pacific Islanders. DTC is one of the cancers with the highest familial risk suggesting a major role of genetic risk factors, but only few susceptibility loci were identified so far. In order to assess the contribution of known DTC susceptibility loci and to ident

The COVID-19 pandemic has wreaked havoc in every country in the world, with serious health-related, economic, and social consequences. Since its outbreak in March 2020, many researchers from different fields have joined forces to provide a wide range of solutions, and the support for this work from artificial intelligence (AI) and other emerging concepts linked to intelligent data analysis has bee
