The purpose of this study was to evaluate four different viewing procedures as part of improving viewing conditions of breast tomosynthesis (BT) image volumes. The procedures consisted of free scroll volume browsing, and a combination of initial cine loops at three different frame rates (9, 14 and 25 fps) terminated upon request followed by free scroll volume browsing. Fifty-five normal BT image v
Extracellular influx of calcium or release of calcium from intracellular stores have been shown to activate mammalian TRPA1 as well as to sensitize and desensitize TRPA1 electrophilic activation. Calcium binding sites on both intracellular N- and C-termini have been proposed. Here, we demonstrate based on Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) and bilayer patch-clamp studies, a direct calmodulin
This study examines the challenges Sweden faces in implementing legislation against human trafficking for sexual purposes, analyzing the issue through conflict theory and feminist perspectives. Employing qualitative content analysis, the research identifies and categorizes causes such as demand, misogyny, inadequate legislation, and socioeconomic vulnerability. The primary research questions addre
Människohandel i syfte att tigga och stjäla finns i 4 kap. 1a§ BrB. Denna lagstiftning har framförallt kommit till p.g.a. Palermoprotokollet, men det finns även ett EU-direktiv, ett EU-rambeslut och en Europarådets konvention på området. Människohandel i syfte att tigga och stjäla har blivit uppmärksammat de senaste åren, men det har varit svårt att få fällande domar på området. År 2011 ändrades mHuman trafficking for the purpose of begging and stealing you can find in chapter 4 1a § BrB. This legislation has mainly been due to Palermo Protocol, but there is also an EU Directive, an EU Framework Decision and a Council of Europe Convention on the field. Human trafficking for the purpose of begging and stealing has been recognized in recent years, but it has been difficult to get convictions
Mitochondrially-bound dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (EC 1.3.99.11) catalyzes the fourth sequential step in the de novo synthesis of uridine monophosphate. The enzyme has been identified as or surmised to be the pharmacological target for isoxazol, triazine, cinchoninic acid and (naphtho)quinone derivatives, which exerted antiproliferative, immunosuppressive, and antiparasitic effects. Despite this
The present thesis sought to inspect the yet-unexplored digital dimension of North Korean human rights activism, aiming to uncover the strategic digital communication wielded by a selected case study. The research was thus based on an explorative qualitative inquiry of the social media activity of Park Yeonmi, one of the most renowned North Korean defectoractivists in the West. A total of 90 eleme
Total levels of circulating prostate-specific antigen (tPSA) are strongly associated with prostate cancer (PCa) risk and outcome but benign prostate disease is the most frequent cause of a moderately elevated PSA level. Free PSA (fPSA) forms are independently associated with PCa risk and contribute modest diagnostic enhancements above and beyond tPSA alone. We developed an immunoassay for fPSA sub
Popular Abstract in Swedish Spridning och inavel i naturen I modern tid har vi människor orsakat stora förändringar i miljön, vilket påverkat många arters livsbetingelser. Exempelvis har vi avskogat stora områden och efterlämnat små delar av de större områden som tidigare hängde ihop. Organismer som lever i sådana uppsplittrade miljöer kommer att vara isolerade från varandra, vilket får som följdTo evaluate how inbreeding affects the viability of small populations, it is crucial to determine what constitutes a population (i.e., the number of breeders in local patches and the degree of dispersal), and also to estimate the reproductive consequences of philopatry and emigration. In this thesis, I concentrate on dispersal, inbreeding and fitness in natural populations. I consider dispersal ra

Purpose: We investigated the value of serum measurements for glandular kallikrein 2 (hK2), and free (f) and total (t) prostate specific antigen (PSA) in a second round of biannual screening for prostate cancer. Materials and Methods: In 1995 to 1996, 5,853 of 9,811 randomly selected men in Goteborg, Sweden 50 to 66 years old had PSA measurements. Of 660 men 611 with tPSA 3 ng/ml or greater underwe
Inhibitors of dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHODH) have been suggested for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, autoimmune diseases, Plasmodium, and bacterial and fungal infections. Here we present the structures of N-terminally truncated (residues Met30-Arg396) DHODH in complex with two inhibitors: a brequinar analogue (6) and a novel inhibitor (a fenamic acid derivative) (7), as wel
Objectives. Autoantibodies to apolipoprotein (apo) B-100 peptides are present in human plasma and have been shown to be associated with decreased cardiovascular risk. The present study aimed to determine if apo B-100 peptide vaccines are atheroprotective in mice expressing human apo B-100 and if the effectiveness of the vaccines is influenced by the level of pre-existing peptide-specific autoantib
The legality requirement under the EU Regulation on Deforestation-free Products (EUDR) raises important interpretative questions concerning the nature and scope of the due diligence obligations imposed on companies operating in global value chains (GVCs). While the EUDR was primarily adopted as an environmental instrument aimed at reducing the European Union’s contribution to global deforestation
Affective forecasting is an ability that allows the prediction of the hedonic outcome of never-before experienced situations, by mentally recombining elements of prior experiences into possible scenarios, and pre-experiencing what these might feel like. It has been hypothesised that this ability is uniquely human. For example, given prior experience with the ingredients, but in the absence of dire
Huset har fått sitt namn efter den sydliga jättenäckrosen (Victoria cruziana), vilken i sin tur fått sitt namn efter drottning Victoria av Storbritannien och Irland (1819-1901). Den har imponerande stora blommor och blad. De sistnämnda kan bli 2,5 meter i diameter och bära ca 70 kg! Blomningen är ett skådespel som äger rum nattetid. Varje blomma är utslagen två nätter, den första natten är blomm

Instagram is a large social media platform with strong power dynamics between the company, influencers and the users. Exploring this power dynamic within a theoretical framework rooted in neo-medievalism, this study investigates how power structures are manifested and enacted on the platform. The central research question focuses on the exercise of power from both hierarchical positions: from abov
Popular Abstract in Swedish Staren i jordbrukslandskapet Under de senaste tre decennierna har staren (Sturnu's vulgari's) i likhet med många andra fågelarter knutna till jordbrukslandskapet minskat kraftigt i antal, både i Sverige och i stora delar av västra och norra Europa.

The cause of these declines is generally believed to be changes with in agricultural methods affecting breeding and survival of birds. For starlings in Southern Sweden the amount of pasture in the landscape surrounding breeding colonies is the key factor. We found a positive relat
