Abstract: Food availability sets the stage for incubation behaviour of a female bird and thereby indirectly determines the nest temperature, which in turn affects development and metabolism of avian embryos. Changes in development and metabolism in turn are known to influence offspring’s ability to adjust to environmental changes later in life. However, few studies have investigated the role of in
Aim: Head injury is the most common trauma occurring in syncope. We aimed to assess whether syncope as cause of head-trauma affects short-and long-term prognosis. Methods: From a database retrospective analysis of 97,014 individuals attending Emergency Department (ED), we selected data of patients with traumatic head injury including age, gender, injury mechanism, brain imaging, multiple traumas,
RATIONALE: The alarmin S100A9 has been identified as a potential therapeutic target in myocardial infarction. Short-term S100A9 blockade during the inflammatory phase post-myocardial infarction inhibits systemic and cardiac inflammation and improves cardiac function long term. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the impact of S100A9 blockade on postischemic cardiac repair. METHODS AND RESULTS: We assessed card
Tjänstearbetare, bland annat kvinnodominerade yrkesgrupper i offentlig välfärdssektor, står för en ökande andel av arbetskonflikter i världen. Därmed blir studier av strejker i offentlig sektor allt mer relevanta för att vidareutveckla förståelser av strejk som maktmedel. En forskningslucka finns särskilt avseende kommunalarbetares arbetsinställelser. Med målsättningen att utforska villkoren för o
Background: User involvement is a requirement of most research funders. There is a growing body of literature exploring the benefits and challenges of user involvement in research, but such studies are scarce in the field of aging and health. Moreover, the majority of such research is qualitative, which limits the generalizability of results. The UserAge panel study will be instrumental in expandi
Flood risk is a great global concern that is not only affecting developing countries, but threatens to undermine sustainable development also in the most affluent advanced liberal democracies. While political inertia is delaying much needed global change, efforts to reduce risk and adapt to a changing climate are growing on more local levels. However, floods tend not to be bounded by geopolitical,
Objective: To examine whether C4d plasma levels correlate with treatment response and C4d kidney deposition in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) with lupus nephritis (LN). Methods: C4d plasma levels were analyzed by a unique assay specifically detecting C4d arising from complement activation and C4 plasma levels were quantified with competitive ELISA. SLE patients with LN (71) and active SLE pati
This thesis is focused on two globally prevalent diseases: i) non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and ii) type 2 diabetes (T2D), with an overall aim of improving prediction and causal inference in the context of these conditions. Our projects were mainly conducted using IMI DIRECT and UK Biobank datasets including multi-omics data, extensive environmental exposures, and biological intermedia
The project “ETT-Modular system for timber transport” investigates the possibilities of making logging shipments more effective, decrease their fuel consumption and road wear without compromising traffic safety. As part of this project a timber vehi-cle, the ETT-vehicle, that pulls four piles of timber, is 30 metres long, and has a gross combination weight of 90 tons, is tested on a distance betwe
Background: The literature reviewed in the context of this master’ programme frequently refers to the enormous and increasing flows of people in the global era (Dicken, 2007; Lechner, 2004; Yeates, 2008); consequently, these flows have different directions and motives and represent diverse types of migration and migrants. As a result, the pivotal point here is the specificity of scientific migrati
Some markets represent companies that offer similar products in terms of design, quality and price. In this reality competitive advantages have to be created and developed in other ways. Many companies have therefore chosen a market oriented strategy that focuses on the client and their needs. According to studies within the field of Service management the interaction between the company and the c
The purpose of this study is to explore how relationship benefits and sacrifices matter in relation to members of referral networks and how these aspects affect overall member satisfaction. This study has an explanatory research approach since it aims to, by testing hypotheses; explain the impact relationship benefits and sacrifices have on satisfaction. It is based on both qualitative and quantit
Under en längre tid har högfrekvenshandelns negativa inverkan på de finansiella marknaderna varit föremål för debatt. Högfrekvenshandelns negativa inverkan utgörs framförallt av otillbörligt kurspåverkande effekter och högre volatilitet på värdepappersmarknaden. Kännetecknande för högfrekvenshandeln är att affärerna utförs av kraftfulla datorer med avancerade datoralgoritmer som lägger ett stort aFor a long time, the negative impact that high frequency trading has had on the financial markets has been subject of debate. The negative impact of high frequency trading constitutes mainly of price-changing effects and a higher volatility in security markets. Characterizing of high frequency trading is that the business transactions are made by powerful computers with sophisticated computer algo
