The Hoard from the Secretaire

In the 1980ies much effort was made to get a, till then, unknown Viking Age silver hoard into the University Museum of Lund for registration. It was a large hoard consisting of over 900 coins, jewelry and hacksilver. We succeeded to have the hoard on display a few days in 1986.Thereafter the hoard was collected again by the finders and its further destiny is unknown. This is very much to regret asIn the 1980s much effort was made to get an, until then, unknown Viking Age silver hoard into the University Museum of Lund for registration.

“You Can’t Influence Illness, But You Can Influence Everything Else”: Women’s Diverse Experiences of Important Resilience Aspects in the Context of Breast Cancer

Resilience comprises positive adaptation to stress and has been extensively studied in the context of breast cancer. Nevertheless, specific experiences of breast cancer survivors in relation to resilience are unknown. The aim of this study was to explore the diverse experiences of important resilience aspects in breast cancer survivors. We conducted semi-structured interviews with 25 breast cancer

Using Digital Tools for Information Management in Higher Education

In recent years, Knowledge Management (KM) has gained significant attention within the Information Systems (IS) community. The economic importance of data and information, often likened to “data as the new oil,” underscores the critical role of data/information/knowledge management. KM is crucial in both educational and organizational contexts. Despite growing interest, research in KM in Higher Ed

Sequencing of 640,000 exomes identifies GPR75 variants associated with protection from obesity

Large-scale human exome sequencing can identify rare protein-coding variants with a large impact on complex traits such as body adiposity. We sequenced the exomes of 645,626 individuals from the United Kingdom, the United States, and Mexico and estimated associations of rare coding variants with body mass index (BMI). We identified 16 genes with an exome-wide significant association with BMI, incl

Landscapes of Indignation: Denunciations of Tax Evaders and Welfare Cheaters in Scandinavia

Abstract: Citizen-state relations can be more than just a political relationship. It can also be emotional. Where there is an articulated balance between citizen tax obligations and state welfare services, there arises a combination of redistribution and reciprocity between citizen and state. This fiscal compact has an emotional component. This emotional component becomes indignation when people p

Early neuro-electric indication of lexical match in English spoken-word recognition

We investigated early electrophysiological responses to spoken English words embedded in neutral sentence frames, using a lexical decision paradigm. As words unfold in time, similar-sounding lexical items compete for recognition within 200 milliseconds after word onset. A small number of studies have previously investigated event-related potentials in this time window in English and French, with r

Structures of Atm1 provide insight into [2Fe-2S] cluster export from mitochondria

In eukaryotes, iron-sulfur clusters are essential cofactors for numerous physiological processes, but these clusters are primarily biosynthesized in mitochondria. Previous studies suggest mitochondrial ABCB7-type exporters are involved in maturation of cytosolic iron-sulfur proteins. However, the molecular mechanism for how the ABCB7-type exporters participate in this process remains elusive. Here

Thrombomodulin (THBD) gene variants and thrombotic risk in a population-based cohort study

Background: The protein C anticoagulant system plays a key role in maintaining the hemostatic balance. Although several studies have identified thrombomodulin gene (THBD) variants among venous thromboembolism (VTE) patients, the role of THBD in relation to VTE in humans remains to be clarified. Objectives: This study aimed to determine the thrombotic risk of rare and common THBD variants in a larg

Metabolic and proteomic signatures of type 2 diabetes subtypes in an Arab population

Type 2 diabetes (T2D) has a heterogeneous etiology influencing its progression, treatment, and complications. A data driven cluster analysis in European individuals with T2D previously identified four subtypes: severe insulin deficient (SIDD), severe insulin resistant (SIRD), mild obesity-related (MOD), and mild age-related (MARD) diabetes. Here, the clustering approach was applied to individuals

Brain energy metabolism : A roadmap for future research

Although we have learned much about how the brain fuels its functions over the last decades, there remains much still to discover in an organ that is so complex. This article lays out major gaps in our knowledge of interrelationships between brain metabolism and brain function, including biochemical, cellular, and subcellular aspects of functional metabolism and its imaging in adult brain, as well

Cannabinoid non-cannabidiol site modulation of TRPV2 structure and function

TRPV2 is a ligand-operated temperature sensor with poorly defined pharmacology. Here, we combine calcium imaging and patch-clamp electrophysiology with cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) to explore how TRPV2 activity is modulated by the phytocannabinoid Δ9-tetrahydrocannabiorcol (C16) and by probenecid. C16 and probenecid act in concert to stimulate TRPV2 responses including histamine release from

UKRAINIAN REFUGEES IN SCANDINAVIA, OR HOW TO TALK ABOUT MIGRATION WITHOUT TALKING ABOUT IT

The reaction to Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 indicated a multiplicity of standpoints, different positionalities, and power asymmetries, in particular in the Western academy. Represen-tatives of the mainstream migration research centres as well as individual researchers, while recognising the importance of solidarity with the Ukrainian people and with Ukrainian scholars,

Digital Transformation of the Automotive Industry : An Integrating Framework to Analyse Technological Novelty and Breadth

Research demonstrates that digital technologies stimulate industrial transformation by enabling new interdependencies with firms outside and across firm and industry boundaries. However, we know little about the degree of novelty and breadth of digital technologies that have the potential to transform industries. Understanding the degree of novelty (spanning from radical to incremental) and breadt

Energy efficiency at building sites: barriers and drivers

The construction industry is an important societal sector and a major consumer of energy. Improved energy efficiency is important for this sector, but energy efficiency at construction sites has so far been under-researched. The aim of this article is to analyse the drivers of and barriers to improved energy efficiency at construction sites, as perceived by professional actors. The peer-reviewed r
