The cost of treating cardiovascular disease (CVD) and diabetes is enormous and is set to rise in the coming years. Physical inactivity and sedentary behaviors are major risk factors for these diseases and are estimated to account for several million global deaths annually. Lifestyle interventions, particularly those aimed at enhancing physical activity levels, have a substantial favorable impact o
This paper analyses ethical issues in forensic psychiatric research on mentally disordered offenders, especially those detained in the psychiatric treatment system. The idea of a 'dual role' dilemma afflicting forensic psychiatry is more complicated than acknowledged. Our suggestion acknowledges the good of criminal law and crime prevention as a part that should be balanced against familiar resear
Objective While the incidence of children suffering from autoimmune type 1 diabetes (T1D) is increasing in Sweden and worldwide, the underlying etiology and cellular mechanisms behind this remain unknown. The predisposition of the high-risk HLA DR-DQ genotype and as yet unknown environmental triggers lead to autoimmunity and the onset of T1D, which is preceded by islet beta-cell autoantibodies a
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Human genetic studies support a key role of interleukin-6 (IL-6) in the pathogenesis of ischemic stroke. Still, there are only limited data from observational studies exploring circulating IL-6 levels as a risk factor for ischemic stroke. Here, we set out to perform a systematic review and meta-analysis of aggregate data on cohort studies to determine the magnitude and s
De senaste teknologiska framstegen har lett till skapandet av högspecialiserade system inom olika industrier, vilket möjliggör uppgifter som tidigare varit otänkbara. I takt med att den globala efterfrågan på hållbara och effektiva energilösningar ökar, har behovet av innovation inom teknik aldrig varit större. Dessa framsteg representerar transformativa förändringar som omformar hela sektorer. FrRecent technological advancements have led to the creation of highly specialized systems across various industries, enabling tasks that were once beyond imagination. As the global demand for sustainable and efficient energy solutions grows, the urgency for innovation in technology has never been greater. These advancements are not simply incremental but represent transformative changes that are re
The Chinese stock market has been established for more than 20 years. Although it is not as mature as the highly developed western securities markets, it has a huge influence on the global economy. It is significant to study the risks of the Chinese stock market, especially the risk of stock indexes. Affected by the economic globalization today, more and more financial derivatives and financial i
Ett projekt inom ArtCollab The First Person Singer (FPS) project aims to experimentally create prerequisites for a new operatic format offering the audience first-person perspectives from individual characters through personalized streaming. By equipping opera singers with body cameras and microphones, the project allows beholders to experience the plot through the eyes and voices of individual pe

Popular Abstract in Swedish
Under de senaste decennierna har innemiljön och dess relation till hälsa rönt ett allt större intresse. En viktig aspekt i detta sammanhang har varit kopplingen mellan fukt i byggnader och hälsa.
Cementbaserade material innehåller ofta överskottsvatten ("byggfukt") när de gjuts då detta är nödvändigt för deras arbetbarhet och flytegenskaper. Förutom det höga vat
In recent decades there has been an increasing interest in the indoor environment and its connections with public health. One important topic discussed has been the relation between the moisture in buildings and health.
Cementitious materials, when cast, contain excess water since this is necessary for workability and for flow properties. The pore solutions in cementitious materials, besid
Cars are nowadays being programmed to learn how to drive themselves. While autonomous cars are often portrayed as the next step in the auto-motive industry, they have already begun roaming the streets in some US cities. Building on a growing body of critical scholarship on the development of autonomous cars, we explore what machine learning is in open environments like cities by juxtaposing this t
Importance: The role of ω-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids for primary prevention of coronary heart disease (CHD) remains controversial. Most prior longitudinal studies evaluated self-reported consumption rather than biomarkers. Objective: To evaluate biomarkers of seafood-derived eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA; 20:5 ω-3), docosapentaenoic acid (DPA; 22:5 ω-3), and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA; 22:6 ω-3) an
BackgroundFunctional MRI (fMRI) is a non-invasive technique for the study of brain function that utilizes changes in blood flow and volume accompanying brain activation. When neuronal activation occurs, local blood flow increases, leading to an increase in oxygenated blood. The different magnetic properties of oxygenated and deoxygenated blood yields signal changes in the MRI images. This effect i

Given the anthropometric differences between men and women and previous evidence of sex-difference in genetic effects, we conducted a genome-wide search for sexually dimorphic associations with height, weight, body mass index, waist circumference, hip circumference, and waist-to-hip-ratio (133,723 individuals) and took forward 348 SNPs into follow-up (additional 137,052 individuals) in a total of
Academic research increasingly focuses on environmental sustainability as a specific societal mission to be addressed. However, the effects of the increasing sustainability orientation on output generation in public research organizations are largely unexplored. In this paper, we analyse the effects of the increasing importance of sustainability-oriented research topics on research and teaching ef
Neoliberalism, as a loosely defined set of political beliefs, calls for more individual freedom and autonomy, resulting in increased responsibility for each person to address major societal issues. ‘Individualization’ is the process by which responsibility for addressing major environmental issues such as climate change is placed on individuals. In this thesis I investigate whether individualizati
Aim: To value the importance of research on avian migration for the development and current status of Spanish ornithology. Results and Conclusions: Avian migration has always been an outstanding field in ornithology. This assertion is particularly true in Spain, as we illustrate here by discussing the contribution of migration research to both the scientific and historical development of Spanish o
