Introduction: Streptococcus pyogenes (group A streptococcus; GAS) is a pathogen causing over half a million deaths annually worldwide. Human immune cells respond to GAS infection by activating the NLRP3 inflammasome leading to the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines that control infection. We investigated the role of C4b-binding protein (C4BP) and factor H (FH) in the inflammasome response to GA
In situ X-ray reciprocal space mapping was performed during the interval heating and cooling of InGaN/GaN quantum wells (QWs) grown via metal–organic vapor phase epitaxy (MOVPE). Our detailed in situ X-ray analysis enabled us to track changes in the peak intensities and radial and angular broadenings of the reflection. By simulating the radial diffraction profiles recorded during the thermal cycle
The interactions between aerosols and clouds are still one of the largest sources of uncertainty in quantifying anthropogenic radiative forcing. To reduce this uncertainty, we must first determine the baseline natural aerosol loading for different environments. In the pristine and hardly accessible polar regions, the exact nature of local aerosol sources remains poorly understood. It is unclear ho
Debates on the total or partial privatization of water usually follow the rationale that efficient and rational management is best left to the private sphere. In this paper and using a historical example, we attempt to assess critically this assumption arguing that efficiency and rationality in resource management are and have been an asset of collective management as well. We present the case of
BACKGROUND: Previous case-control studies have reported aberrations of the gut microbiota in individuals with prediabetes. The primary objective of the present study was to explore the dynamics of the gut microbiota of individuals with prediabetes over 4 years with a secondary aim of relating microbiota dynamics to temporal changes of metabolic phenotypes.METHODS: The study included 486 European p
Background: Testicular germ cell cancer (TGCC) originates during fetal life. Fetal exposure to environmental chemicals may contribute to its development, but epidemiological data are lacking. We investigated per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), which can act as endocrine disruptors during fetal development, and TGCC risk in adulthood. Methods: We conducted a nested case-control study of 549
In the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, there has been a scientific interest in how certain measures of disease control, such as lockdowns, affects different individuals and different communities. Through a queer-phenomenological approach, the purpose of the study is to offer queer insights of lockdown as a measure of disease control by exploring how queer people in London orientate and experienc
This thesis explores the positioning of internal crisis communication in relation to external communication, specifically within the context of governmental crisis response. Guided by the case of the Lebanon crisis in 2024, this study investigates how crisis experts from a European Ministry of Foreign Affairs interpret internal communication across the three phases of crises, drawing on the Rhetor
Today, in our ever-changing world, the concept of open-air museums, whose main purpose is heritage preservation, must meet the challenges of the times. These include finding a new role in the modern world, necessity to remain relevant, and addressing the challenges of funding for long-term sustainable development. Our master's thesis examines the case of Fredriksdal Open-Air Museum. We focus o
This thesis analyses how rights-based youth climate groups can sustain their interventions during political transitions, using the YES4ECO project in Bangladesh as a case study. The youth-led project in the climate-vulnerable districts of Bangladesh faced disruption following the uprising in July 2024, as it destabilised the local government structures. The study draws on 29 key informant intervie
Volume status of a patient is difficult to assess clinically. Methods to measure plasma volume as well as changes in plasma volume in connection with fluid therapy are therefore valuable for research purposes and could potentially be used bedside to guide fluid therapy in individual patients. The objective of the present study was to evaluate hematocrit as a marker of changes in plasma volum
The comfortable garment is about creating a comfortable experience with all that it implies, both physiologically and psychologically. The project describes the interaction between expectations and needs, in and across situations, in order to be and feel prepared, relaxed, and while still well dressed. The Expectation of this project is that it should be an eye opener to take get new knowledge abo
