The report summarises a small case study in which two research groups were interviewed and observed as they were planning, conducting and analysing experiments at MAX IV Laboratory.The aim of the study was to identify the current research data management practices of the scientists, and to connect this to how these practices are supported by MAX IV.The report summarises a small case study in which two research groups were interviewed and observed as they were planning, conducting and analysing experiments at MAX IV Laboratory.The aim of the study was to identify the current research data management practices of the scientists, and to connect this to how these practices are supported by MAX IV.

Institutions for prevention and resolution of industrial conflicts were introduced all over the world in the early twentieth century. We use a new dataset of geocoded strikes and lockouts to analyze the impact of mediation on conflict outcomes in Sweden for the period 1907–1927. Causality is identified by using the distance from the mediator’s place of residence to the conflict as an instrument. D

Background: Knowledge of the relationships between patient-reported and performance-based walking measures in Parkinson's disease (PD) should inform clinical decision-making. The Walk-12G reliably captures perceived walking difficulties but has not been compared to performance-based walking in laboratory or free-living settings or across different groups. Objectives: To investigate the relationshi

Despite the clinical development of novel adjuvant and neoadjuvant chemotherapeutic drugs, metastatic breast cancer is one of the leading causes of cancer-related death among women. The present review focuses on the relevance, mechanisms, and therapeutic potential of targeting WNT5A as a future anti-metastatic treatment strategy for breast cancer patients by restoring WNT5A signaling as an innovat

Importance: Childhood appendicitis is commonly complicated by gangrene and perforation, yet the causes of complicated appendicitis and how to avoid it remain unknown. Objective: To investigate whether children with IgE-mediated allergy have a lower risk of complicated appendicitis. Design, Setting, and Participants: This retrospective cohort study included all consecutive patients younger than 15

Previous research has made three parallel but incompatible observations on the contemporary development of welfare professions: loss of professional autonomy, hybridization, and maintained autonomy. Yet, research providing contextual understanding of the simultaneous occurrence of these three observations is lacking. The aim of this theoretical paper is to identify and explain seemingly contradict

Cellulose nanocrystal (CNC) incorporation in polymeric matrices is an environmentally friendly approach to mechanical reinforcement. In general, significant mechanical reinforcement can only be achieved by means of good CNC dispersion at random orientation. These primary characteristics are even more relevant for the preparation of nanocomposites based on hydrophobic matrices, such as poly(ε-capro

The extraction, supply, market price and recycling of the metals molybdenum and rhenium were modelled using an integrated system dynamics model. The resource estimates made here resulted in significantly larger estimates than earlier studies for molybdenum. Present molybdenum resources are about 75–80 million ton and about 7 million ton has been mined to date. The ultimately recoverable resources

Due to the limited cooling capacity of air, large-scale proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cell stacks are generally cooled by liquid cooling where liquid water is circulated through the flow channels of cooling plates. Effective cooling is essential for the stability, durability, and performance of PEM fuel cells. In this study, cooling plates with conventional straight channel and novel non-uni

To study the intergenerational dynamics of productivity, social mobility and demographic change of any contemporary society is a challenge. To do this for a pre-industrial society at the southern tip of Africa seems almost impossible. Yet this is the purpose of the Cape of Good Hope Panel, an annual panel data set–still under construction–of Cape Colony settler tax records over almost two centurie

Background: Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is the third most frequent life-threatening cardiovascular disease with an annual incidence rate of 1-2 per 1000 person-years. After the diagnosis for primary VTE, about 20-30% patients develop a recurrence within 5-years. VTE recurrence can be prevented by anticoagulants, albeit at the risk of severe bleeding. Heritability of VTE is high and hereditary fac

The interest in studies of diffusional processes in microemulsions has grown rapidly during the past few years. The reasons are an increased number of available techniques providing easily interpretable data and the realization that self-diffusion data give unique information on the molecular organization and structure of microemulsions. Furthermore, many current and potential applications of micr

A heterogeneous catalyst system for Suzuki and Heck coupling reactions was developed using polyoxometalates as supports for palladium. The catalyst system was synthesized in a one step process using sodium phosphotungstate and palladium acetate. We used the supported catalyst in organic media without the need for special ligands. Substantial activity was observed after several recycles. The cataly

Abstract: Businesses have increasingly engaged in various forms of cross-border transfers of activities. Much production, knowledge and work has been moved offshore from developed economies to achieve better competitiveness. However, recent research has begun to report about an opposite movement, i.e., backshoring of business activities. This research paper reports empirical survey results, explor

Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) and dementia are predominant among the elderly; patients with AF have an increased dementia risk. We aimed to study if prescribed antihypertensive drugs and cardiovascular pharmacotherapies are associated with a lower relative risk of dementia. Methods: All included patients were ≥45 years and diagnosed with AF in primary care; 12,096 (6580 men and 5516 women)

Introduction: The risks of preterm birth are known. We investigated the perinatal and infant mortality and morbidity after iatrogenic or spontaneous onset of extremely preterm birth. Material and methods: The present study used data from the population-based EXPRESS study comprising all infants delivered before 27+0 gestational weeks in Sweden between 2004 and 2007. All fetuses alive at admission
