In the pursuit of more sustainable agriculture, weeds play a dual role by threatening crop production and simultaneously contributing to farmland biodiversity. Management actions such as the use of fertilisers (fertilisation) may change weed abundance and community composition with consequences for both weed–crop competition and biodiversity. Alleviating the balance between yield and biodiversity

Små klimatfickor – stor betydelse Bin, fjärilar och blomflugor är inte bara vackra att titta på – de gör också ett av naturens viktigaste jobb. Genom att flytta pollen mellan blommor ser de till att många växter kan föröka sig. Det gäller både vilda arter och en stor del av de grödor som vi människor äter. Utan dessa pollinatörer skulle vår biologiska mångfald minska kraftigt, och även vår livsmePollinators are essential for biodiversity and ecosystem services but face growing threats from climate change. Microclimates may buffer these impacts by providing localized climatic refugia. I assessed community-level and body size-dependent responses of bees, butterflies, and hoverflies to microclimatic temperature, humidity, wind, and structural shelter in semi-natural grasslands in southern Sw

Background and purpose: The Measure of Case-Discussion Complexity (MeDiC) tool was created to gauge case complexity at multidisciplinary team meetings (MDTM) for case selection and prioritization. We aimed to assess applicability and association with MeDiC score and non-compliance with national guide-line-recommendations for MDTM referral in a bladder cancer setting. Material and methods: A modifi

In inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) the pathogenetic process is characterized by dysbiosis, increased permeability, translocation, and immune activation. The aim of the present study was to assess the presence of viable bacteria in the blood of patients with IBD and to correlate the findings with clinical characteristics. The study included 28 patients with Crohn’s disease (CD) (median age 38 year

Recent years have seen an uptake in cycling and, with it, an increase in cyclists being involved in crashes. One particularly problematic area is that of urban signalised intersections, which are responsible for a majority of the crashes involving cyclists. One reason is the increased complexity at such locations. The bike box has been hailed as an infrastructure measure to help increase the safet

The rapid uptake of electric vehicles presents both opportunities and challenges for modern power systems. As charging demand increases, intelligent and data-driven approaches are essential to predict and manage future grid impacts. This paper presents a probabilistic and data-driven approach for generating realistic electric vehicle charging profiles, which can be integrated into probabilistic lo

OBJECTIVE AND DESIGN: The objective was to determine the association between serum IgE levels and the infiltration order of T lymphocytes and macrophages in pancreatic islets in relation to the loss of insulin and glucagon cells in presymptomatic congenic BB Gimap5-DP (Diabetes Prone) rats.MATERIAL: Congenic prediabetes BB Gimap5-DP and control Gimap5-DR (Diabetes Resistant) rats were followed eve

Denna uppsats behandlar de rättsliga frågor som uppstår när konserter och idrottsevenemang spelas in, laddas upp eller livestreamas. Bakgrunden är att sådana videor ofta laddas upp på internet, vilket aktualiserar både upphovsrättsliga och avtalsrättsliga frågor. Syftet med uppsatsen är att analysera rättsläget kring inspelning och tillgängliggörande av konserter och idrottsevenemang. Metoden soThis thesis addresses the legal issues that arise when concerts and sporting events are recorded, uploaded or livestreamed. The background is that such videos are often uploaded to the internet, which raises both copyright and contract law questions. The purpose of the thesis is to analyse the legal situation regarding the recording and making available of concerts and sporting events. The method

I denna uppsats undersöker jag hur hållbarhetsrapportering regleras rättsligt inom EU genom det nya direktivet Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD), med fokus på tre centrala komponenter: ansvar, kontroll och sanktioner. Syftet är att analysera hur dessa komponenter samverkar för att skapa en effektiv och tillförlitlig rapporteringsstruktur för företag. Studien tar sin utgångspunkt This thesis examines how sustainability reporting is legally regulated within the EU through the new Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD), focusing on the three central components: responsibility, assurance, and sanctions. The aim is to analyse how these components interact to create an efficient and reliable reporting structure for companies. The study takes as its starting point t

Boreal lakes are generally seen as sources of carbon dioxide (CO2) to the atmosphere, even though a part of them are periodically undersaturated with CO2 and have the potential to be net-autotrophic. This undersaturation is the result of photosynthetic activity by phytoplankton, especially flagellated species like Gonyostomum semen, which form high-biomass blooms in brown water lakes. We hypothesi

ObjectivesDespite regularly being found in blood cultures, there are few studies of bloodstream infection (BSI) with Citrobacter. In this population-based study, the aim was to explore patient characteristics, outcome, and incidence in a publicly funded single payer setting.MethodsPatients with growth of Citrobacter in blood culture were identified through the clinical microbiology laboratory in L

Enligt Terror Management Theory ska påminnelser om döden höja människors förtroende och tycke för sin sociala ingrupp. Eftersom COVID-19-pandemin har inneburit konstanta dödspåminnelser vill den här studien utforska dödlighetsmedvetenhet samt stress och ångest i relation till förtroende för regeringars pandemirespons. I studien deltog 143 deltagare varav 111 hade befunnit sig i Sverige under det s
