Changes in nutrient bioavailability due to increased loading of dissolved organic matter (DOM) may impact boreal freshwaters. Yet, the relative bioavailability of carbon (C), nitrogen (N), and phosphorus (P) associated with terrestrial DOM remains poorly understood. We applied short-term bioassays with natural bacterial inocula to determine seasonal variation in bioavailable organic nutrient pools
Agricultural intensification and extreme weather events can represent considerable stress to soil microorganisms and their functions by influencing the key players behind the degradation of soil organic matter. A better understanding of the diversity and abundance of microbial functional genes that predict the functional potential of soils, can link the microbial communities to their key ecosystem
Background and aims – Agricultural intensification and loss of farmland heterogeneity have contributed to population declines of wild bees and other pollinators, which may have caused subsequent declines in insect-pollinated wild plants. Material and methods – Using data from 37 studies on 22 pollinator-dependent wild plant species across Europe, we investigated whether flower visitation and seed
BACKGROUND: Before this study started, the standard postoperative chemotherapy regimen for stage II-III Wilms' tumour pretreated with chemotherapy was to include doxorubicin. However, avoidance of doxorubicin-related cardiotoxicity effects is important to improve long-term outcomes for childhood cancers that have excellent prognosis. We aimed to assess whether doxorubicin can be omitted safely fro
Mexico is the most transited corridor in the world. Beyond borderlands, human rights abuses committed against migrants pervade across transit communities and routes. In the interior of Mexico, not only at borders, the criminalization of migration has occurred having as a backdrop violence, xenophobia and insecurity in transit communities. Transit communities have developed complex relationships wi
This mapping provides an overview of different types of arenas where the two concepts Ecosystem-based adaptation (EbA) and Blue Carbon (BC) are discussed. EbA has been defined by the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) as “The use of biodiversity and ecosystem services as part of an overall adaptation strategy to help people to adapt to the adverse effects of climate change.” (CBD, 2009). BC
During lipolysis of chylomicron triacylglycerol by lipoprotein lipase, arachidonic acid (AA) esters are hydrolyzed at a slower rate than the predominant 16-18 carbon fatty acid esters. The further metabolism of the AA that is hereby enriched in the chylomicron remnant acylglycerols has not been investigated. In the present study, we examined the low density lipoprotein (LDL) dependent and independDuring lipolysis of chylomicron triacylglycerol by lipoprotein lipase, arachidonic acid (AA) esters are hydrolyzed at a slower rate than the predominant 16-18 carbon fatty acid esters.

Studies showing that large-scale public health interventions in early life have lasting consequences are still scarce and rarely disclose the mechanisms. In 1931–1946, the Swedish state reformed the childbirth institutional system that led to the openings of the new maternity wards and to the gradual decline in home deliveries assisted by midwives. Maternity wards offered improved conditions for a
The recent more or less complete return and recovery in Skåne, southern-most Sweden, of epiphytic bryophyes known to have suffered from atmospheric pollution in the mid 1900’s, e.g. Zygodon rupestris, Antitrichia curtipendula, Leucodon sciuroides, Orthotrichum lyellii, O. speciosum and O. stramineum, is here discussed and illustrated on maps. However, apart from these successful recoveries, at lea
Denna avhandling utforskar relationen mellan politik och nya medier genom en studie av digital diplomati i den Europeiska utrikestjänsten (EEAS) 2011-2017. Den belyser hur en diplomatisk organisation internaliserar medielogik. Traditionella ansatser utgår ofta från att medielogiken tar över den politiska logiken. I denna avhandling betonas istället betydelsen av politisk kontext, dess aktörer och This thesis explores the relationship between politics and new media in the context of digital diplomacy at the European External Action Service (EEAS) 2011-2017. In contrast to dominant approaches to the mediatization of politics that consider political logic to be dominated or even replaced by media logic, it gives greater emphasis to the role of the political context, its actors and their pract
Barefoot doctor system is an important part of primary health care policy changes in China after the founding of New China, is a special viewpoint to study the special period of grassroots political change. Why medical care’s come into the sight of top leaders at that time? What does medical care system mean to modern state building? There may be a certain natural link between the body and the nat
'Silence' in one word grasps the gendered structures within the Danish daycare regime. Through a rearticulation of this notion a detailed inquiry of processes with gendered effects within the public administration of the daycare regime is carried out. Though public daycare is an universal welfare service with political attention where gender-issues are very present, and a general gender-ma
Särskild medling erbjuds idag av Sveriges domstolar som ett alternativ till en domstolsprocess eller förlikningsprocess. Särskilda medlare i Sverige består idag utav en blandning av advokater, domare och socionomer. Internationellt sätt finns det erkända institut som erbjuder ackreditering för medlare, däribland Centre of Dispute Resolution i London, Storbritannien. Medlare från Sverige och hela vThe Swedish courts offer court-annexed mediation as an alternative to litigation or court-annexed conciliation. On the Swedish National Courts Administration’s website, there is a list available of Swedish mediators available for court-annexed mediation that includes lawyers, judges and social workers. From an international perspective, there are several institutes that offer accreditation for med
The emergence of social media has changed the power relations and the practices of tourism destination marketing by enabling the co-existence of user generated content and destination marketing organisation’s content, as well as the content co-creation among these actors. Due to the visual nature of tourism the image-focused social media platforms are particularly interesting for the tourism field
Enligt lagen (2003:778) om skydd mot olyckor, LSO, har den som äger en byggnad eller bedriver verksamhet i byggnaden det yttersta ansvaret för sitt brandskydd. I skälig omfattning ska det finnas utrustning för livräddning vid brand, och i övrigt ska åtgärder vidtas för att förebygga samt begränsa skador till följd av brand. Det är kommunernas ansvar att utföra tillsyn på brandskyddet så att dettaAccording to Swedish Law (2003:778) on protection against accidents, LSO, the one who owns a building or conducts operations in a building has the ultimate responsibility of their fire protection. To a reasonable extent, there must be equipment for lifesaving in the event of a fire, as well as other measures which must be taken to prevent fire and limit damage as a result of fire. In this study, t
Due to the serious problem of greenhouse gas emissions in our atmosphere driving global warming, the need for sustainable initiatives has become an imperative for companies which leads to the necessity of operating sustainably. However, to avoid taking a weak approach to sustainability, it is imperative for companies to carry out a transition involving all three dimensions (environmental, economic
Understanding the effects of neonicotinoid insecticides on bees is vital because of reported declines in bee diversity and distribution and the crucial role bees have as pollinators in ecosystems and agriculture. Neonicotinoids are suspected to pose an unacceptable risk to bees, partly because of their systemic uptake in plants, and the European Union has therefore introduced a moratorium on three
This essay is about children who have psychological and social problems. An increase part of children and young people in Sweden describe this kind of difficulties. These problems are at the same time a concern for the school as well as the social welfare. The purpose in this essay is to explore if children with psychological and social problems have the same legal rights to education as other chi
The aim of this study was to examine social workers educational material about violent extremism. This included investigating how violent extremism and risk behaviors are produced and how they can be interpreted by social workers. In many ways extremism and democracy can be regarded as contradictory to each other. Therefore an important part of the preventive work aims to protect the democracy aga
