För snart ett decennium sedan startade en intensiv debatt om flygets klimatpåverkani svenska medier. I dess kölvatten har en social rörelse för minskat flygresande tagitform – flygfrittrörelsen. Den består av individer och organisationer som tillsammansengagerar sig för minskat flygresande, dels genom att delta i kampanjer och annatpåverkansarbete, och dels genom att själva avstå flygresande.Min aThe need for demand-side climate solutions is increasingly recognized in science and society. Such solutions imply that demand for goods and services is targeted either via changes in the use of infrastructure and technology or via cultural changes in consumption and lifestyle among the global affluent. In this thesis, I explore how to enable cultural change around affluent overconsumption through

Amaranthus caudatus is a nutrient-rich Andean pseudocereal with wide genetic variability. Six productive varieties (Oscar Blanco, Pucara, Tomina, Cotahuasi, Barbechos, and Guindo Criollo) were compared by proximate, mineral, and fatty acid composition. The proximal content showed certain singularities in the varieties. Barbechos and Guindo Criollo stood out for their fat content (9.50% and 9.01%,

This paper explores the intersection of corporate sustainability and recruitment perspectives in Swedish companies, examining the use of one hundred and seven sustainability keywords in more than 230 000 IS/IT job ads collected from the Swedish Public Employment Service. The study emphasizes the pressing need for a new breed of computing professionals to address environmental challenges and climat

Physical properties such as break resistance, chalkiness, and size dimensions are very important for grading rice quality. Today, most of the methods used for determining these properties are performed manually, making them both time-consuming and, to some extent, subjective, which, in turn, can affect the determination of rice quality and, thereby, the price. A collaborative study was conducted b

AIMS/HYPOTHESIS: The aim of this work was to explore molecular amino acids (AAs) and related structures of HLA-DQA1-DQB1 that underlie its contribution to the progression from stages 1 or 2 to stage 3 type 1 diabetes.METHODS: Using high-resolution DQA1 and DQB1 genotypes from 1216 participants in the Diabetes Prevention Trial-Type 1 and the Diabetes Prevention Trial, we applied hierarchically orga

Fabrication of CoNb2O6 thin films was possible through spin-coating an alkali-free, aqueous solution of a polyoxoniobate ([Nb10O28]6-, Nb10) and a cobalt nitrate (Co(NO3)2), followed by annealing. The results showed that depending on the calcination conditions, minor phases of unreacted Co3O4 and β-Nb2O5 may form alongside the columbite CoNb2O6 phase. However, optimizing the calcination conditions

The tumor microenvironment of brain metastases has become a focus in the development of immunotherapeutic drugs. However, countless brain metastasis patients have not experienced clinical benefit. Thus, understanding the immune cell composition within brain metastases, and how the immune cells interact with each other and other microenvironmental cell types, may be critical for optimizing immunoth

Tertiary Lymphoid Structures (TLS) are organized aggregates of immune cells such as T cells, B cells, and Dendritic Cells (DCs), as well as fibroblasts, formed postnatally in response to signals from cytokines and chemokines. Central to the function of TLS are DCs, professional antigen-presenting cells (APCs) that coordinate the adaptive immune response, and which can be classified into different

In human proteomics, substantial efforts are ongoing to leverage large collections of mass spectrometry (MS) fragment ion spectra into extensive spectral libraries (SL) as a resource for data independent acquisition (DIA) analysis. Currently, such initiatives in equine research are still missing. Here we present a large-scale equine SL, comprising 6394 canonical proteins and 89,329 unique peptides

Major political events become a dominant topic of the discussions in the countries involved, and various actors, often other than political parties, take a stance towards them. The withdrawal of the UK from the European Union as a result of the 2016 UK referendum was one of those, and a quite polarised atmosphere from supporters of both sides was observed in the UK and the rest of Europe since the

Direct membrane filtration (DMF) has gained a lot of attention in recent years because of its potential to treat low-strength and low temperature wastewater, where biological based treatments are inefficient. However, fouling is a major concern which keeps this technique from being more widely used. The main aim of this study was to investigate membrane fouling, its mitigation approaches and the o

INTRODUCTION: Maternal SARS-CoV-2 infection can affect pregnancy outcome, but the placental response to and the effect of timing of infection is not well studied. The aim of this study was to investigate the placental levels of inflammatory and cardiovascular markers in pregnancies complicated by SARS-CoV-2 infection compared to non-infected pregnancies, and to investigate whether there was an ass

Background: Randomized trials have shown that axillary clearance (AC) can safely be omitted in patients with sentinel lymph node-positive breast cancer. At the same time, de-escalation of chemotherapy in postmenopausal patients with ER+HER2− breast cancer may depend on detailed axillary nodal stage. The aim of this pre-specified secondary analysis of the SENOMAC trial was to investigate whether th

BACKGROUND Trials evaluating the omission of completion axillary-lymph-node dissection in patients with clinically node-negative breast cancer and sentinel-lymph-node metastases have been compromised by limited statistical power, uncertain nodal radiotherapy target volumes, and a scarcity of data on relevant clinical subgroups. METHODS We conducted a noninferiority trial in which patients with cli

Background: In luminal breast cancer, adjuvant CDK4/6 inhibitors (eg, abemaciclib) improve invasive disease-free survival. In patients with T1–2, grade 1–2 tumours, and one or two sentinel lymph node metastases, completion axillary lymph node dissection (cALND) is the only prognostic tool available that can reveal four or more nodal metastases (pN2–3), which is the only indication for adjuvant abe
