Alzheimer's disease (AD) not only takes an emotional toll on the individual with the disease, their families, relatives, and caretakers, it also has immense socioeconomic consequences on the health care system and society. Moreover, the socioeconomic consequences are expected to increase significantly, thus reducing the social and economic cost of AD is of high importance. Recently, exposure to 40
Lead-free layered double perovskite nanocrystals (NCs), i.e., Cs4M(II)M(III)2Cl12, have recently attracted increasing attention for potential optoelectronic applications due to their low toxicity, direct bandgap nature, and high structural stability. However, the low photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY, <1%) or even no observed emissions at room temperature have severely blocked the further deve
Decision trees constructed by ID3-like algorithms suffer from an inability of detecting instances of categories not present in the set of training examples, i.e., they are discriminative representations. Instead, such instances are assigned to one of the classes actually present in the training set, resulting in undesired misclassifications. In this report, twomethods of reducing this problemby le
Scania, the dangerous peninsula. History, identity and ideology 1865 to 2000 This dissertation deals with the organized written history of Scania 1865 to 2000 and the intersection of history, identity and ideology. Under what circumstances were the history produced and circulated? What was its significance for identity and ideology alike? The theoretical and analytical inspiration is drawn from P
We propose a conceptual model to explain the variation in species richness in local communities and in build-up of regional species pools over time. The idea is that the opportunity for new species to enter a community (its invasibility) determines the present richness of that community as well as the long-term build-up of a species pool by speciation and migration. We propose that a community's i
BACKGROUND: A standardised technique using a suction-induced mini-erosion that allows serial sampling of dermal interstitial fluid (IF) for 5 to 6 days has been described. In the present study, we studied permeability changes as a function of time. METHODS: We examined IF concentrations of total protein concentration and the concentration of insulin (6.6 kDa), prealbumin (55 kDa), albumin (66 kDa)
The free energy of interaction between two nanometric clay platelets immersed in an electrolyte solution has been calculated using Monte Carlo simulations as well as direct integration of the configurational integral. Each platelet has been modeled as a collection of charged spheres carrying a unit charge-the face of a platelet contains negative charges, and the edge, positive charges. The calcula
Background: AZD0837 is an investigational oral anticoagulant that is bio-converted to its active form, AR-H067637, a selective direct thrombin inhibitor. Objectives: The objectives of the present study were to investigate if there are any clinically relevant adverse effects of intravenous AZD0837 on cardiac conduction, refractoriness and repolarization, and to study its safety and tolerability. Me
This article offers narratives of individual journeys through the scholarship of leading in three different contexts—Asia, Europe, and Africa. Together, these narratives argue for the need to make explicit the diversity of practices of the scholarship of teaching and learning (SoTL), with each practice inextricably tied to specific geographical, sociocultural, and political contexts.

Together, these narratives argue for the need to make explicit the diversity of practices of the scholarship of teaching and learning (SoTL), with each practice inextricably tied to specific geographical, sociocultural, and political contexts.

Background and objectives: Beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) are widely consumed, but the bioaccessibility of their phenolic compounds (PCs) may be affected by different factors. Within this framework, an in vitro gastrointestinal digestion of two bean varieties: “Azufrado” and “Negro Jamapa,” was performed and the bioaccessibility and in vitro release kinetics of PC was evaluated. Mashed beans were p
The Yiddish language is over 1,000 years old and incorporates German, Slavic, and Hebrew elements. The prevalent view claims Yiddish has a German origin, whereas the opposing view posits a Slavic origin with strong Iranian and weak Turkic substrata. One of the major difficulties in deciding between these hypotheses is the unknown geographical origin of Yiddish speaking Ashkenazic Jews (AJs). An an
Den här uppsatsen syftar till att ur ett rättsutvecklingsperspektiv redogöra för och diskutera framväxten av det internationella brottet folkmord (genocide). Raphael Lemkin myntade 1944 begreppet genocide. Han hade då också en genomtänkt definition av vad begreppet behövde innebära för att omfatta de illdåd som utförs i världen. Bakgrunden till hans engagemang grundade sig i det turkiskottomanska
Vart fjärde år, i valtider, uppstår en viss typ av kommunikation då och enbart då. Valaffischer trycks än idag i stora upplagor och sätts upp vid valda platser i hela Sverige, vilket leder till en stor exponering hos invånarna. Denna stora uppvisning har dock inte lett till någon större forskningsinsats på valaffischer, utan det finns ett mycket smalt utbud av studier av svenska valaffischer. ForEvery fourth year at, during elections, a certain type of communication appears. Election posters are still today printed in large quantities and placed at locations all throughout Sweden, which entails a large exposure to the inhabitants. Yet, this display has not lead to a great amount of research on election posters, but there is a small number of studies of Swedish election posters. Research
Kärnvapen är i allra högsta grad kraftfulla militära och politiska vapen. På grund av detta är frågan om dess legalitet i internationell rätt sedan länge omdebatterad. När frågan ställdes inför den internationella domstolen myntades ett nytt begrepp; ”statlig överlevnad”. Domstolens användning av begreppet väckte frågan om statlig överlevnad utgör ett exceptionellt undantag som kan rättfärdiga vå
The implementation of iris scan technology in the context of humanitarian financial assistance in UNHCR-run refugee camps raises an array of legal questions. While the collection and storage of biometrical data in other contexts is often accompanied by a critical discussion about data protection and privacy concerns, the use of such data in humanitarian settings is often left uncontested. The in-d
Eftersom innovation ger konkurrensfördelar, ökar marknadsandelar och påskyndar den övergripande institutionella tillväxten, utgör innovation en erkänd framgångsfaktor för organisationer. Under det senaste decenniet har ett paradigmskifte från traditionella innovationsstudier, med fokus på forskning och utveckling, till medarbetardriven innovation (EDI) skett. Då den senaste litteraturkartläggningeInnovation is widely recognized as a critical factor of organizational success as it cultivates competitive edge, augments market share, and accelerates overall institutional growth. During the last decade, a paradigm shift from the traditional innovation studies, focusing on research and development (R&D), toward employee-driven innovation (EDI) has been observed. However, the last literature
2014 myntades begreppen femwashing och femvertising. Femwashing beskrev när företag som egentligen inte arbetar för jämställdhet, använder sig av reklam som visar kvinnan i en upplyftande position. Femvertising beskrev i kontrast när ett företag också använde sig av reklam där kvinnan framställs på ett upplyftande sätt, men när företaget faktiskt aktivt arbetar för jämställdhet. Begreppen har främ
