The goal is to demonstrate the potential of physical retail establishments in urban environments for creating resilient and soc

Requesting control and flexibility: Exploring Swedish user perspectives of electric vehicle smart charging

The electrification of several sectors and the increasing role of volatile energy production mean that future energy systems will have to balance supply and demand to a higher degree. The increasing use of electric vehicles in particular will pose both challenges and opportunities for energy systems. Smart electric vehicle charging and user flexibility have been proposed as potential remedies for

Blood lead levels and risk of atherosclerosis in the carotid artery : Results from a swedish cohort

BACKGROUND: Lead exposure has been associated with increased incidence of adverse clinical cardiovascular outcomes. Atherosclerosis has been suggested as one of the underlying mechanisms, and findings from experimental studies support this, but human data are scarce. OBJECTIVES: Our objective was to determine the association between environmental lead exposure based on blood lead (B-Pb) concentrat

Fatty acid composition of milk from mothers giving birth at extremely low gestation in Sweden

Preterm infants show postnatal deficits of long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LCPUFAs) which are essential for adequate growth and neurodevelopment. Human milk is a primary source of fatty acids (FAs) for the preterm infant, and therefore, knowledge about milk FA levels is required to design appropriate supplementation strategies. Here, we expanded on our previous study (Nilsson et al., 2018,
