Marknadens tid samlar bidrag från några av Sveriges främsta historiker och fokuserar tiden från 1970-talet och framåt. Varje kapitel utgår från en bild, och i centrum står marknadsvändningen – en mångfacetterad, men samtidigt tydlig process genom vilken marknaden som institution, ideal och metafor blivit ledande inom samhällslivet. Hur kom det sig?Marknadens tid satte stora avtryck i svensk politi

Vaccination hesitancy is one of the critical threats to public health. The coronavirus disease pandemic reconfirmed that certain groups of populations are more reluctant to vaccinate than others, particularly migrants. This article examines legal obligations related to protecting the right to health in addressing vaccination barriers among newly arrived adult migrants, taking Ukrainians granted te

This narrative review describes a new approach to navigation in a challenging landscape of clinical drug development in diabetes. Successful outcome studies in recent years have led to new indications and guidelines in type 2 diabetes, yet the number of clinical trials in diabetes is now declining. This is due to many environmental factors acting in concert, including the prioritisation of funding

Förändringar i det svenska välfärdssamhället har devalverat ersättningsnivåer för ekonomiskt bistånd. Mottagare av ekonomiskt bistånd söker även ekonomisk hjälp från Svenska kyrkan. Diakonerna arbetar med ekonomisk hjälp, trots att kyrkan saknar nationella riktlinjer för hur och till vem hjälpen förmedlas. Forskningen om kyrkans hjälpverksamhet är sparsmakad, och det finns ingen forskning utifrån

Treatment options of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) usually include combinations of radiotherapy and surgery, and in some cases addition of chemotherapy. In locally advanced cases cure rates are low. Current prognostic factors cannot foresee the outcome for the individual patient. There is consequently a need for reliable prognostic and predictive factors. Through identification of

Protein S is a modular protein and a cofactor in the protein C anticoagulant system. It consists of a Gla-module, a thrombin-sensitive loop, four EGF-modules and a SHBG-like module. Protein S has previously been shown to contain four binding sites with high affinities for Ca²⁺ (K_a>9x10⁵ M^-1 at physiological ionic strength) and at least one of the sites h

In the present thesis, the quantitative role of active transport (transcytosis) in bulk transvascular protein movement in vivo was evaluated. Using chemical transcytosis inhibition (N-ethylmaleimide (NEM) and filipin), we were able to show that NEM actually increases endothelial permeability to macromolecules, probably as a result of unspecific toxic action on endothelial cells. Filipin, on the ot
