Fatty acid profiles of great tit (Parus major) eggs differ between urban and rural habitats, but not between coniferous and deciduous forests

Early-life nutrition is an important determinant of both short- and long-term performance and fitness. The avian embryo develops within an enclosed package of nutrients, of which fatty acids (FA) are essential for many aspects of development. The FA composition of yolk depends on maternal nutrition and condition prior to egg formation, which may be affected by the external environment. To test if

Assessing the effects of repeated handling on the physiology and condition of semi-precocial nestlings

Repeated exposure to elevated levels of glucocorticoids during development can have long-term detrimental effects on survival and fitness, potentially associated with increased telomere attrition. Nestling birds are regularly handled for ecological research, yet few authors have considered the potential for handling-induced stress to influence hormonally mediated phenotypic development or bias int

"Vi har redan tillräckligt med judar här” : tonsättaren Hans Holewa och exilens dubbelhet

Tonsättaren, radiomedarbetaren och musikern Hans Holewa (1905–1991) anlände till Sverige 1937 som landsflyktig undan den tilltagande antisemitismen i Wien, drygt ett halvår innan Österrike annekterades av Nazityskland. Som invandrad radikal tonsättare med den så kallade tolvtonstekniken som utgångspunkt, med judiskt påbrå och med engagemang inom vänsterrörelsen kom Holewas svenska exiltillvaro utg

Myo-inositol changes precede amyloid pathology and relate to APOE genotype in Alzheimer disease

Objective: We aimed to test whether in vivo levels of magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) metabolites myo-inositol (mI), N-acetylaspartate (NAA), and choline are abnormal already during preclinical Alzheimer disease (AD), relating these changes to amyloid or tau pathology, and functional connectivity. Methods: In this cross-sectional multicenter study (a subset of the prospective Swedish BioFIND

The experience of nurses working within a voluntary network : A qualitative study of health care for undocumented migrants

Purpose: To illuminate the experience of nurses providing health care to undocumented migrants in a voluntary network. Methods and sample: In a qualitative study, semistructured interviews were conducted with RNs regarding their experience of providing health care to undocumented migrants within a voluntary network. The interview transcripts were analysed using the inductive method of content anal

Additive domain decomposition operator splittings – convergence analyses in a dissipative framework

We analyze temporal approximation schemes based on overlapping domain decompositions. As such schemes enable computations on parallel and distributed hardware, they are commonly used when integrating large-scale parabolic systems. Our analysis is conducted by first casting the domain decomposition procedure into a variational framework based on weighted Sobolev spaces. The time integration of a pa
