With increasing pressure to get rid of the world’s dependence on fossil fuels to reach the world’s climate goals, the use of alternative fuels for propulsion are needed. This is a challenge for the maritime industry, where ferries have good properties to become renewable by the usage of batteries. Their routes are mostly fixed routes and with good infrastructure established at each stop, fully bat
Dendrometers offer valuable insights into how tree growth responds to climatic variables and physiological processes over the course of a year. Yet, their applicability to extremely slow-growing trees, such as those in peatlands, has been limited due to the intricate and slow nature of growth, therefore rendering interpretation of results complex. In this study, we conducted a comprehensive monito
Silica has rarely been used as a seed particle material in acoustic trapping of nanoparticles. Here we use fluorescent nanoparticles, which are frequently used as a model system, to demonstrate that throughput and nanoparticle trapping efficiency can be improved by using silica seed particles as opposed to traditionally used polystyrene seed particles. The 10 times larger dipole scattering coeffic
Despite the anticipated benefits of smart home technology (SHT) to support older adults' engagement in meaningful activities, barriers to the adoption of SHT have been identified. While research in the field of technology is surging, research on older adults playing an active role in designing and developing SHT to enhance usability is lacking. It is important to co-develop solutions to place olde
The core protein of proteoglycans from cartilage is substituted with glycosaminoglycans as well as N- and O-glycosidically linked oligosaccharides. We have taken advantage of the long intracellular half-life of the core protein precursor to the rat chondrosarcma proteoglycan to study the temporal relationship between the addition of the chondroitin sulfate chains and the O-linked oligosaccharides
Objectives: To assess the prevalence of reported and unreported incidental pulmonary embolism (iPE) in patients with cancer, and to evaluate an artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm for automatic detection of iPE. Methods: Retrospective cohort study on patients with cancer with an elective CT study including the chest between 2018-07-01 and 2019-06-30. All study reports and images were reviewed t
Ambient airborne particles with an aerodynamic diameter of <2.5 µm (PM2.5), which contain particles from combustion processes, are linked to increased risks for cardiovascular and respiratory diseases. In this experimental study, the short-term and long-term physiologic consequences of PM2.5 inhalation were investigated with the focus on inflammatory parameters and vascular tonus. PM2.5 collected
Bile acids (BAs) play different roles in cancer development. Some are carcinogenic and BA signaling is also involved in various metabolic, inflammatory and immune-related processes. The liver is the primary site of BA synthesis. Liver dysfunction and microbiome compositional changes, such as during hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) development, may modulate BA metabolism increasing concentration of c
Cities are growing in size and becoming increasingly dense. This situation calls for strategic planning of green infrastructure in the urban planning process. Safeguarding the green infrastructure is important for maintaining urban ecosystem services and increasing the well-being of urban populations. To facilitate appropriate urban planning that enables cities to grow sustainably, it is important
BACKGROUND: The prevalence of teenage pregnancy in Colombia is higher than the worldwide average. The identification of socio-geographical disparities might help to prioritize public health interventions.AIM: To describe variation in the probability of teenage maternity across geopolitical departments and socio-geographical intersectional strata in Colombia.METHODS: A cross-sectional study based o
Context.Gaia Data Release 3 (DR3) contains the first release of magnitudes estimated from the integration of Radial Velocity Spectrometer (RVS) spectra for a sample of about 32.2 million stars brighter than GRVS∼ 14 mag (or G ∼ 15 mag). Aims. In this paper, we describe the data used and the approach adopted to derive and validate the GRVS magnitudes published in DR3. We also provide estimates of t
Nonradical-based advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) catalyzed by defective carbonaceous materials have exhibited great superiorities in trace antibiotics removal from natural water matrices. However, the complicated, extensive and highly-energy consumed synthesis methods are seriously hindering its development and application. Herein an in-situ electrochemical synthesis technology was developed a
BACKGROUND: Periampullary cancer is a term for cancers arising in or in close proximity to the pancreas. Pancreatic cancer is the 3rd leading cause of cancer death for both sexes and while surgery is the only option for cure, chemotherapy is given in both the adjuvant and palliative settings. The aim of this study was to investigate any sex and gender differences in patients with pancreatic and ot
Objective: Meniscal calcifications are associated with the pathogenesis of knee osteoarthritis (OA). We propose a micro-computed tomography (μCT) based 3D analysis of meniscal calcifications ex vivo, including a new grading system. Method: Human medial and lateral menisci were obtained from 10 patients having total knee replacement for medial compartment OA and 10 deceased donors without knee OA (
Two-dimensional (2D) topological insulators have fascinating physical properties which are promising for applications within spintronics. In order to realize spintronic devices working at room temperature, materials with a large nontrivial gap are needed. Bismuthene, a 2D layer of Bi atoms in a honeycomb structure, has recently attracted strong attention because of its record-large nontrivial gap,
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a common musculoskeletal disease that leads to deterioration of articular cartilage, joint pain, and decreased quality of life. When OA develops after a joint injury, it is designated as post-traumatic OA (PTOA). The etiology of PTOA remains poorly understood, but it is known that proteoglycan (PG) loss, cell dysfunction, and cell death in cartilage are among the first signs
Popular Abstract in Swedish Ny kunskap gör det möjligt att med hjälp av DNA-information välja ut vilka kvigor/kor som förväntas ge en hög mjölkavkastning, höga halter av mjölkens komponenter och optimala egenskaper för ostproduktion. Denna information kan användas för att bättre anpassa mjölkens sammansättning och processegenskaper med de svenska mejeriernas behov för att på så vis förbättra mjölkMilk genomics is a new area of research that explores the relations between cow genetics and milk characteristics. Identifying the genes controlling compositional and technological traits of milk will give opportunities to select cows for targeted milk production. In this thesis, the impact of different genetic approaches, i.e. quantitative genetic evaluation, single gene effects and genomic selec
