Incidence Rate of Hand Eczema in Different Occupations : A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis

Hand eczema is a chronic disease that results in economic and psychosocial burdens. The aim of this study was to systematically review and assess the magnitude of the association between exposure related to occupations and the incidence rate of hand eczema. A systematic search in PubMed, EMBASE, CINAHL and Cochrane databases, from inception to September 2017, of full-text observational studies rep

The structure of DarB in complex with RelNTD reveals nonribosomal activation of Rel stringent factors

Rel stringent factors are bifunctional ribosome-associated enzymes that catalyze both synthesis and hydrolysis of the alarmones (p)ppGpp. Besides the allosteric control by starved ribosomes and (p)ppGpp, Rel is regulated by various protein factors depending on specific stress conditions, including the c-di-AMP-binding protein DarB. However, how these effector proteins control Rel remains unknown.

I en värld av ting

Sedan antiken har humanismen försökt definiera den mänskliga naturens väsen samtidigt som den placerar människan i universums centrum som ”alla tings mått”. I ett försök att omvärdera människans betydelse har det talats om ett slags transhumanistisk intersubjektivitet. Jag utgår från fysikern och feministen Karen Barads begrepp intraaktion (samspel mellan integrerade delar). Barad myntar begreppet

Hur ekonomisk historia blev en egen disciplin vid de svenska universiteten

Economic history became a discipline with its own chair professors at the Swedish universities at the end of the 1940s. The well-known economic historian Eli Heckscher played a central role for the establishment and his work led to a stronger position for economic history in Sweden than in most other countries. However, his influence was not strong in the formation of the discipline. He always emp

On the impact of pad material ingredients on particulate wear emissions from disc brakes

Besides friction and wear, airborne particle emission has become a central parameter when evaluating disc brake performance due to its potential adverse health effects as component of ambient air pollution. The pad friction material of brake system is composed of a mixture of ingredients grouped into four material categories: abrasives, reinforcing fibres, lubricants, and fillers. Some other ingre

Resilient Food Supply Chains in the Face of the Russo–Ukrainian War: Harnessing the Power of the Internet of Things

The current war in Ukraine has severely disrupted global food supply chains due to the significant decline in the production of grain commodities, of which Ukraine and Russia are major global suppliers. This creates problems in today’s globalised food systems. In particular, a number of countries are heavily dependent on food imports from Ukraine and/or Russia, particularly some developing nations

Application of soft computing and evolutionary algorithms to estimate hydropower potential in multi-purpose reservoirs

Hydropower is a clean and efficient technology for producing renewable energy. Assessment and forecasting of hydropower production are important for strategic decision-making. This study aimed to use machine learning models, including adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS), gene expression programming, random forest (RF), and least square support vector regression (LSSVR), for predicting hy

Glued-In Rods for Timber Structures - Development of a Calculation Model

This report relates to GIROD WP1 – “Development of a calculation model”. WP1 consists of four sub-WPs: 1.1 “Theoretical work”, 1.2 “Bond line tests”, 1.3 “Tests for calibration” and 1.4 “Calibration of model”.In WP1.1 theoretical models for rational prediction of pull out strength have been developed. The models include a very simple ideal plastic model, a linear elastic fracture mechanics model,

Much Ado about Nothing : Gender Research in Journals during the last 30 years

The paper accounts for the extent to which gender research is represented in leading archaeological journals throughout the 1980s to the present through the database Arts & Humanities Citation Index (ISI). The paper regards gender research as including gender, feminisms, masculinities,queer, intersectionality and embodiment. It is concluded that gender research, despite its alleged significanc
