PEPRF : Identification of Essential Proteins by Integrating Topological Features of PPI Network and Sequence-based Features via Random Forest

Background: Essential proteins play an important role in the process of life, which can be identified by experimental methods and computational approaches. Experimental approaches to identify essential proteins are of high accuracy but with the limitation of time and resource-consuming. Objective: Herein, we present a computational model (PEPRF) to identify essential proteins based on machine lear

“Association of mammographic features with molecular breast tumor profiles”

Purpose: Mammographic density and tumor appearance are breast cancer prognostic factors. Conceivably, mammographic features are macroscopic reflections of tumor´s molecular composition, but to an unknown extent. Our aim was to study associations of mammographic features with molecular tumor profiles. Methods: Invasive breast cancers (2007-2016) in Malmö Diet and Cancer Study (MDCS) for which there

Chinese Citizen Satisfaction with Government Performance during COVID-19

While foreign pundits have alternatively blamed and praised the Chinese government’s handling of the COVID-19 virus, little is known about how citizens within China understand this performance. This article considers how satisfied Chinese citizens are with their government’s performance during the COVID-19 pandemic. It first considers the impact of authoritarian control, political culture, and/or

Epigenetic changes induced by maternal factors during fetal life : Implication for type 1 diabetes

Organ-specific autoimmune diseases, such as type 1 diabetes, are believed to result from T-cell-mediated damage of the target tissue. The immune-mediated tissue injury, in turn, is known to depend on complex interactions between genetic and environmental factors. Nevertheless, the mechanisms whereby environmental factors contribute to the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases remain elusive and repr

A colorectal cancer diet quality index is inversely associated with colorectal cancer in the Malmö diet and cancer study

The World Cancer Research Fund International has concluded strong evidence for that high intake of dairy products and foods containing dietary fiber and low intake of processed meat are associated with decreased risk of colorectal cancer (CRC). As food items are consumed together, it is important to study dietary patterns. The aim of the present study was to examine the association between an a pr

Normative values of the vibration perception thresholds at finger pulps and metatarsal heads in healthy adults

Aims To establish normative values of vibration perception thresholds (VPTs), using multi-frequency vibrometry at finger pulps and at metatarsal heads of the foot in healthy adults. We also aimed to investigate factors that could potentially affect VPTs such as age, sex, height, weight, foot- or handedness and skin temperature. Methods VPTs were examined in 924 healthy and randomly selected subjec

Free vitamin D3 index and vitamin D-binding protein in multiple sclerosis : A presymptomatic case–control study

Background and purpose: High levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 (25[OH]D3) are associated with a lower risk for multiple sclerosis (MS). The bioavailability of 25(OH)D3 is regulated by its main plasma carrier, vitamin D-binding protein (DBP). Free 25(OH)D3 can be estimated by also measuring DBP concentration. In addition, DBP has immunomodulatory functions that may independently affect MS pathogenesis

Introduction : Universities and the Matter of Mattering

In this introductory chapter, we provide insights into the debates that inspired this volume. Our aim is to extend the boundaries of the concept societal interaction and discuss the conditions for universities to undertake such endeavors. Within this context, we introduce the matter of “mattering” which serves as the central theme that runs through this volume. Mattering, we posit, can be comprehe

Beyond the Big Five factors : using facets and nuances for enhanced prediction in life outcomes

Research on personality traits predicting life outcomes has typically been investigated using the Big Five factors and only occasionally their facets. However, recent research suggests that the use of items (reflecting personality nuances) can account for more predictive variance. The aim of the present study was to examine the predictive validity for various life outcomes comparing the hierarchic

Communication work for influencing destination resilience–DMOs experiences during the COVID-19 pandemic

Previous research has identified good communication as one of several key factors essential for destination resilience. However, there has been a lack of research on how communication contributes to this development. To address this gap, this study explores the communication work done by Destination Management Organizations (DMOs) with stakeholders to influence destination resilience. The study ex

Valorizing the Humanities : Impact Stories, Acting Spaces, and Meandering Knowledge Flows

Despite its proven societal value, humanities knowledge tends to be marginalized in research policy; this has been a topic of debate for some time. In this chapter, we focus on the valorization of humanities knowledge, with the aim of comprehending the way this process engenders societal impact. We argue that historical impact stories offer an effective methodological approach for a deeper underst
