Background/Aims: Increasing evidence suggests a link between brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and suicidal behaviour (SB). Furthermore, decreased peripheral BDNF levels have been associated with clinical symptoms in various psychiatric disorders as well as with personality dimensions in healthy individuals. However, the relationship between BDNF and psychopathology is poorly investigated r

Among other factors gender was previously found to influence lumbar fusion surgery outcome.PURPOSE: This study investigates whether gender affects clinical outcome after lumbar fusion.STUDY DESIGN: National registry cohort study PATIENT S
We make Deterministic Lateral Displacement (DLD) flexible by combining it with AC electrokinetics.
Direct and precise manipulation of sub-micron particles such as bacteria, platelets, organelles, microvesicles, exosomes or virus particles is challenging. We describe for the first time how acoustic streaming in the bulk can be efficiently reduced by introducing a density or compressibility gradient and that this enables focusing of 500-nm-diameter particles in a standard acoustophoresis channel.
Boken presenterar på ett populärt sätt forskningsresultat från arkeologi, geologi och historieforskning.

Uppgiften om ett slag på Kävlingebro omkring 1020 föranledde en arkeologisk undersökning vilket presenteras. Lantbrukets utveckling utgör en viktig tråd i boken. Rikt illustrerad.
We apply a novel analytical framework based on medium resolution satellite data for the period 2001 – 2012 to estimate the effects of gold mining on agricultural production in Ghana, Mali, Tanzania and Burkina Faso. Our analysis finds a strong correlation between official statistics of agricultural production and vegetation index from satellite data at district level in these cou
The Precautionary Principle is both celebrated and criticized. It has become an important principle for decision making, but it is also subject to criticism. One problem that is often pointed out with the principle is that is not clear what it actually says and how to use it. I have taken on this problem by performing an analysis of some of the most influential formulations of the principle in an
