Keratins are structural proteins that are abundant in human skin, nails, and hair, where they provide mechanical strength. In the present study, we investigate the molecular mobilities and structures of three keratin-rich materials with clearly different mechanical properties: nails, stratum corneum (upper layer of epidermis), and keratinocytes (from lower layer of epidermis). We use solid-state N

Axillary lymphadenopathy is a common side effect of COVID-19 vaccination, leading to increased imaging-detected asymptomatic and symptomatic unilateral axillary lymphadenopathy. This has threatened to negatively impact the workflow of breast imaging services, leading to the release of ten recommendations by the European Society of Breast Imaging (EUSOBI) in August 2021.

One of the characteristics of Polish foreign aid is its focus on the ‘transition experience’ and civil society. This specific celebration of the ‘Polish success story’ contrasts sharply with public debates that frequently criticise the weaknesses of Polish civil society and the difficulties in state – non-state relations. The Polish Aid apparatus itself is not immune to these problems, often exhib

This study examines the process of meaning-making among Swedish volunteer soldiers who engage in the conflict in Ukraine, exploring the role of violence in their decision and experience. The research is grounded in an existentialist perspective, focusing on individual reasoning and worldview. Through qualitative content analysis of interviews with four Swedish volunteers, the study reveals that th

Understanding how lifestyles should and could change to meet the terms of the Paris Agreement is the aim of the project ‘EU 1.5° Lifestyles’. It focuses on lifestyle options compatible with a 1.5°C target and explores the structural barriers and enablers to implementing these. Many of these lifestyle options relate to circular strategies such as sharing, reusing and repairing products.However, eve

Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN) of the pancreas is a cystic tumor with a disease spectrum ranging from low-grade dysplasia to invasive carcinoma. The evidence for adjuvant treatment in invasive IPMN is limited and mostly derived from studies in conventional pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). We performed a systematic review focusing on all clinical studies concerning the effic

In countries such as the U.S and Poland abortion laws have recently been made more restrictive, however this has not been the case in Sweden. The debate around abortion in Sweden quietened down after the law allowing abortion “on demand” was passed in 1974, but resurged during the 1990s with for example the group “Yes to life” (“Ja till livet”) organizing demonstrations. “Yes to life” mainly sprun

It investigates the shifts and disruptions this government has entailed on three levels: in the realms of social public p
