PNAS202208876_proof.pdf Targets for astrocyte-based treatments of Parkinson’s disease (PD) Malin Parmara,1 Parkinson’s disease (PD) is the second most common neu- rodegenerative condition worldwide, and the number of cases is expected to rise as the population ages (1). It is defined pathologically by the loss of the dopaminergic (DA) neurons in the ventral midbrain (VM) and their projection into

Popular Abstract in Swedish En av dagens största utmaningar är de stadigt ökande utsläppen av förorenande avgaser och drivhusgaser. Den största delen av dessa föroreningar kommer från förbränningsanläggningar och fordon. För att kunna minska utsläppen måste man förstå förbränningsprocesserna, och hur man kan kontrollera förbränningen. Utmaningen är att förbränningprocesser är mycket komplexa. Det To deal with complex physical and chemical processes in reactive systems, such as combustion processes, it is necessary to find methods that simplify modelling in such a way that it becomes both more comprehensible and practically useful. In the work reported here a method for automatically reducing chemical reaction mechanisms has been developed for use in computer simulations of various combusti

Bipolaris sorokiniana is the causal agent of multiple diseases on wheat and barley and is the primary constraint to cereal production throughout South Asia. Despite its significance, the molecular basis of disease is poorly understood. To address this, the genomes of three Australian isolates of B. sorokiniana were sequenced and screened for known pathogenicity genes.

Mental illness in adults such as depression, anxiety or bipolar disorder are nowadays a significant public health problem. Many of those with mental illness are parents of underage children. A parents’ mental illness affects children’s development and wellbeing, but this association is mediated by parental skills and the relation between child and parent. In summary, at a group level there is an i

Intermittently incubating birds alternate between sessions of egg warming and recesses for foraging during the day, but stay on the nest continuously at night. Hence, energy costs of nocturnal incubation (which increase during longer and colder nights) cannot be replenished until the next day. Night conditions might therefore be expected to affect morning incubation behaviour the day after.

Relationships between health professionals and pharmaceutical manufacturers can unduly influence clinical practice. These relationships are the focus of global transparency efforts, including in Europe. We conducted a descriptive content analysis of the transparency provisions implemented by February 2017 in nine European Union countries concerning payments to health professionals, with duplicate Relationships between health professionals and pharmaceutical manufacturers can unduly influence clinical practice.

This study examines the value creation in private equity through looking at the changes of a few chosen metrics, comparing the years before and after acquisitions. Building on previous research into the operational impact of leveraged buyouts in Sweden (Bergström, Grubb & Jonsson), 2009; Nordström 2015) this thesis examines the long-run performance of firms targeted by private equity (PE).

The complexity and dynamicity of microservice architectures in cloud environments present substantial challenges to the reliability and availability of the services built on these architectures. Therefore, effective anomaly detection is crucial to prevent impending failures and resolve them promptly.

Mauritius is an African growth miracle when evaluated against traditional economic theory on how to achieve sustained growth and structural transformation. Mauritius has also been recognized for its commitment to human development. Still, gendered inequalities in the labour market remain.Garment manufacturing significantly contributed to raising women’s labour force participation in Mauritius’s po

This study examines how financial market uncertainty in North America, measured by the CBOE Volatility Index (VIX), affects Eurozone bond markets. The purpose is to analyze the dynamic relationship between the VIX to both government and corporate bonds across different credit ratings, and to assess whether these relationships differ when the bonds are measured as yield-to-maturity (YTM) or option-

In this thesis the connection between coherence and reliability is investigated. The question may be phrased as follows: does the fact that a set of testimonies is coherent imply that the witnesses who have reported these testimonies are reliable? The same question may also be expressed in terms of beliefs: does the fact that a set of beliefs is coherent imply that the beliefs were reliably produc

Background: Hypoxic-ischaemic encephalopathy (HIE) is a leading cause of mortality and long-term neurological sequelae, affecting thousands of children worldwide. Current therapies to treat HIE are limited to cooling. Stem cell-based therapies offer a potential therapeutic approach to repair or regenerate injured brain tissue. These preclinical findings have now culminated in ongoing human neonata

As a result of the huge economic and industrial development that human has been experiencing for decades or centuries, there are millions of potentially contaminated sites around the globe. Potentially contaminated sites are those which industrial, agricultural, mining and waste containment activities with potential to contaminate soil and groundwater has taken place in. A small number of these co

Heart failure (HF) is a leading cause of death and disability globally. HF represents the common end- stage of most heart conditions, during which the heart is unable to generate sufficient output of blood for the metabolic demands of the body and intracardiac pressures increase. Different heart diseases display specific molecular pathophysiologies, but common pathways are also present that drive

Electrification of energy demand is seen as one of the key elements of energy transition toward decarbonisation. E-mobility is one main side of the electrification process, and it is considered as a crucial way to reduce the emissions of the transport sector. A core element for a widespread adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) is the deployment of the charging infrastructure, and installing a micro

The study aims to investigate whether diversity can affect people's social intelligence. The study has been conducted with an experimental design, where two experimental groups were primed with a text describing a workplace with a high degree of diversity respectively non-diversity. A control-group read a neutral text. The texts were followed by the self-assessment test Tromsö Social Intellige

This thesis studies the impact of the war in Ukraine on stock prices of firms within the European defense industry. While previous studies have examined the effects of war on stock prices of defense firms, fewer studies specifically focus on the war in Ukraine. Furthermore, this thesis focuses solely on European defense firms, offering a new geographical perspective to the topic. Additionally, the
