Popular Abstract in Swedish Den globala landbaserade kolcykeln reglerar mängden växthusgaser i atmosfären. För närvarande tas varje år 25-30% av våra utsläpp upp av de landbaserade ekosystemen vilket är en viktig ekosystemtjänst som kanske inte kommer att bestå i längden. Upptagskapaciteten av både hav och landbaserade ekosystem tenderar att försvagas av global uppvärmning. Detta leder till att enThe global terrestrial carbon cycle plays a pivotal role in regulating the atmospheric composition of greenhouse gases. Currently it is responsible for removing 25-30% of our emissions every year, an important ecosystem service that may not persist in the long term. Global warming tends to decrease the CO2 sink capacity of the world’s oceans and ecosystems leading to a larger fraction of our emiss

Nanomedicine and the use of nanoparticles (NPs) are growing like never before. It is therefore important to investigate the interactions in the nano world and the possible hazards. Proteins in organisms can adsorb to NPs and change the proteins structure and therefore their functions. This could be a potential danger and thus an interesting research field. Here, we explore how the proteins Calbind

Electric vehicles have received a lot of attention lately and are expected to boom in the near future. In the power grid industry this raises concern on whether the grid is dimensioned to handle the power peaks related to charging. Solar cells are also a hot topic when discussing future energy supply and how it will impact on the grid. Initially this thesis gives insight to the current state of s

The second most common neurodegenerative disease, Parkinson’s disease, is linked with an amyloid forming protein, alpha-synuclein. Hallmarks of Parkinson’s disease are progressive loss of dopaminergic neurons and accumulation of intraneuronal inclusions termed Lewy bodies. Major components of Lewy bodies are amyloid fibrils formed by alpha-synuclein and various lipids and cell organelles. In this

In this work, Piraíba and Dourada skin wastes were used for leather processing. They were initially stripped and characterized by their percentage composition. The results showed that pH, differential pH cipher [SLC13/ IUC 11/ BS 1309:9 - Determination of pH value and Difference Figure of an Aqueous Extract], chromium content and mechanical properties after chromium tanning were in accord with lea

Popular Abstract in English Among the large variety of experiments performed in science, a common one is to pass a light beam through a sample, the object to be studied, and to study the outcomes of the light-sample interaction. Many light sources have been used for this purpose, like light bulbs and lasers. A modern light source used nowadays is the so-called storage ring. In the storage rings elSynchrotron radiation sources have greatly contributed to the progress in many fields of science. The development of the storage ring technologies have made possible to obtain very low emittance electron beams, which together with the use of undulators allow to guide a very high photon flux into a very small beam size required by the experiments. Development of sources has been accompanied with eq

INTRODUCTION: Patients with thalamic hemorrhage, depressed level of consciousness and/or signs of elevated intracranial pressure may be treated with neurocritical care (NCC) and external ventricular drainage (EVD) for release of cerebrospinal fluid.METHODS: Forty-three patients with thalamic hemorrhage treated with NCC from 1990 to 1994 (n = 21) and from 2005-2009 (n = 22) were evaluated. Outcome

The authors assessed determinants of ergosterol, 3-OH fatty acids (FAs), and viable microbes in vacuum cleaner dust, and investioated the association between these microbial markets and childhood asthma. The authors studied the homes of 36 children who were new cases of childhood asthma and the homes of 36 controls. Home characteristics explained 34% to 44% of the variation in levels of different

BACKGROUND: Diabetes mellitus and hypertension are risk factors for cardiovascular disease, which is the most common cause of death in the world. People with intellectual disability (ID) have been reported to have high rates of both these disorders. The aim of this study was to describe and compare prevalence ratios of diabetes mellitus and hypertension between older adults with ID and their age p

The study deals with strain on the family system, as well as the level of coping and types of coping behavior of the parents, in families with a child diagnosed as having an autistic spectrum disorder (ASD) as compared to families in a control group. Thirty-seven families and 66 parents were involved in each case, and four psychological tests were used. It was found that lower levels of coping wer

OBJECTIVE: This study aimed at exploring the perspectives and experiences of individuals with neck pain by synthesizing all available qualitative studies. METHODS: A systematic, qualitative meta-summary and meta-synthesis was conducted following the 5-step methodology proposed by Sandelowski and Barroso. A systematic search of 9 electronic databases was conducted in May 2021. Methodological qualit

Importance: Patients who survive severe intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) and intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) typically have poor functional outcome in the short term and understanding of future recovery is limited. Objective: To describe 1-year recovery trajectories among ICH and IVH survivors with initial severe disability and assess the association of hospital events with long-term recovery. Des
