Increasing dietary calcium has been suggested to have a range of health benefits, such as reducing the risk of osteoporosis and hypertension. However, producing calcium-fortified products is challenging due to the destabilizing effect caused by added calcium. We provide new data on the effect of adding either calcium gluconate or calcium lactate at up to 50 mM on the partition of salts and the str
For people on the move, family reunification has become a major ‘channel’ to Europe and the ‘right to family’ is a widely recognized principle in international human rightsprotection and domestic legislations. Yet in practice exercising this ‘right’ is oftendifficult and migration buraucracies leave applicants unsure not only of the outcomeof their applications but of the criteria that are relied
The aim of this study was to explore the influence of social ideologies on the doing, being, becoming, and belonging of Western employed professional women who are new mothers, after returning to work outside the home within the first 18 months after giving birth. Although occupational science has provided valuable insights into mothering occupations, it perpetuates an individualistic focus that o
Milk powders are commonly used for a variety of food products in which among others the milk proteins add to the properties of the products. Processing of milk can, depending on the processing parameters, change the size and structure of the proteins. These changes can be difficult to measure due to the polydispersity of milk components, which makes it a challenge to obtain direct information abou
The decomposition of lignocellulose in nature, as well as when used as feedstock in industrial settings, takes place in a dynamic system of biotic and abiotic reactions. In the present study, the impact of abiotic reactions during the storage of pretreated lignocellulose on the efficiency of subsequent saccharification was investigated. Abiotic decarboxylation was higher in steam-pretreated wheat
We study exclusive production of scalar χc0χc(0++) and pseudoscalar ηc charmonia states in proton-proton collisions at the LHC energies. The amplitudes for gg→χc0 as well as for gg→ηc mechanisms are derived in the kT-factorization approach. The pp→ppηc reaction is discussed for the first time. We have calculated rapidity, transverse momentum distributions, and such correlation observables as the d
Background: The role of insulin resistance as a mediator in the association of body mass index (BMI) with site-specific cancer risk has, to our knowledge, never been systematically quantified. Methods: Altogether 510 471 individuals from six European cohorts, with a mean age of 43.1 years, were included. We used the triglyceride glucose product (TyG index) as a surrogate measure for insulin resist
This article aims to explore if social exclusion can constitute a pathway to radicalization, and if individual level of sensitivity of rejection moderates the effect of social exclusion. Humans innately seek belonging and meaning, and strive for re-establishing a sense of value and belongingness if faced with social exclusion. One way to achieve this is by adherence to a new and inviting group. In
As older adults in an early stage (prefrailty) of frailty may return to a healthy state, it is necessary to examine the prevention of prefrailty. In this context, the number and types of social participation activities associated with physical prefrailty in community-dwelling older adults have remained relatively unexplored. This cross-sectional study investigates this issue by analyzing 616 parti
This article explores how language informs work practice from the perspective of bilingual social workers in the Swedish social services. The analysis is based on empirical data from three focus group interviews. The article concludes that, on the one hand, social workers’ bilingualism has the potential of contributing to relationship building with clients; facilitating clients’ democratic partici
Dryland ecosystems are a major source of land cover, account for about 40% of Earth's terrestrial surface and net primary productivity, and house more than 30% of the human population. These ecosystems are subject to climate extremes (e.g. large-scale droughts and extreme floods) that are projected to increase in frequency and severity under most future climate scenarios. In this modelling study w
This chapter offers a reflection on the value of dialogue across media industries and academia in enhancing understanding of audience engagement and disengagement with media. The basis for this reflection is an industry-academic collaborative project between Lund University and Endemol Shine. The Media Experiences project conducted production and audience research on a range of drama and reality e
OBJECTIVES: To analyse the association between ABO blood group and aortic disease using data on blood donors and transfused patients from Sweden. DESIGN: This was a retrospective study using data from the Swedish portion of the Scandinavian Donations and Transfusions Database. The association between ABO blood group and aortic disease was analysed using log-linear Poisson regression models and pre

What are the long-term differences in the propensity of immigrants to acquire destination country citizenship under different institutional contexts and how do these vary between migrant groups? This article draws on micro-level longitudinal data from administrative registers in Denmark, the Netherlands, and Sweden—three countries with widely different and changing requirements for the acquisition
We establish support and resistance levels from data in intraday currency exchange market activity based on machine learning methods. Specifically we design two semi-supervised classification neural networks. The first one is based on a variant of the K-means method while the second is based on a Gaussian mixture model with expectation maximisation. Each performs classification from tick data on v
The Hemse Group is one of the least understood stratigraphic units of the Silurian sequence of Gotland, Sweden. New results from airborne transient electromagnetic (ATEM) measurements in combination with previously published data from field studies and geophysical investigations shed new light on carbonate platform development during the early- to mid-Ludlow Hemse Group. ATEM reveals a transgressi
