Essays in this Issue of Shuddhashar centralize the roles and powers of documents (and the lack of ‘proper’ documents). In parallel, this essay highlights two short stories to show how the power of documents shapes subaltern lives. I dissect the dichotomous dis/possession of documents around which urban poor’s lives are organised. While the state institutions are required to protect and care about
Aims:Swedish public health reports have repeatedly provided information about socio-economic inequalities in sedentary leisure time, despite that, in the interest of health equity, physical activity should be equally distributed in the population. Such public health reports, however, neither consider the intersection of multiple socio-demographic factors nor the individual heterogeneity around gro
The article intervenes in discussions on lay knowledge production about health in the Internet era, through the case of a group of women claiming that their use of copper intrauterine devices has led to systemic side effects. Based on online group interviews and written essays, we examine how women embracing these knowledge claims navigate various sources of information, focusing on the role of sc
Recent divergence can obscure species boundaries among closely related taxa. Silene section Italicae (Caryophyllaceae) has been taxonomically controversial, with about 30 species described. We investigate species delimitation within this section using 500 specimens sequenced for one nuclear and two plastid markers. Despite the use of a small number of genes, the large number of sequenced samples
This paper presents a search for decays of the Higgs boson with a mass of 125 GeV into a pair of new pseudoscalar particles, H→aa, where one a-boson decays into a b-quark pair and the other into a muon pair. The search uses 139 fb-1 of proton-proton collision data at a center-of-mass energy of s=13 TeV recorded between 2015 and 2018 by the ATLAS experiment at the LHC. A narrow dimuon resonance is
A search optimized for new heavy particles decaying to two b-quarks and produced in association with additional b-quarks is reported. The sensitivity is improved by b-tagging at least one lower-pT jet in addition to the two highest-pT jets. The data used in this search correspond to an integrated luminosity of 103 fb-1 collected with a dedicated trijet trigger during the 2017 and 2018 s=13 TeV pro
Context. Ultra-short period planets undergo strong tidal interactions with their host star which lead to planet deformation and orbital tidal decay. Aims. WASP-103b is the exoplanet with the highest expected deformation signature in its transit light curve and one of the shortest expected spiral-in times. Measuring the tidal deformation of the planet would allow us to estimate the second degree fl
A search for lepton-flavor-violating Z→eτ and Z→μτ decays with pp collision data recorded by the ATLAS detector at the LHC is presented. This analysis uses 139 fb-1 of Run 2 pp collisions at s=13 TeV and is combined with the results of a similar ATLAS search in the final state in which the τ lepton decays hadronically, using the same data set as well as Run 1 data. The addition of leptonically dec
A measurement of dielectron production in proton-proton (pp) collisions at s=13 TeV, recorded with the ALICE detector at the CERN LHC, is presented in this Letter. The data set was recorded with a reduced magnetic solenoid field. This enables the investigation of a kinematic domain at low dielectron (ee) invariant mass mee and pair transverse momentum pT,ee that was previously inaccessible at the
This study analyzes some of the factors that facilitate and complicate advanced legal teaching in human rights as a subject of international law. The main objective is to offer a reflection on the challenges faced by the teacher in this field and which arise as a result of the expansion, diversification, and confrontation of the subject taught. According to the argument developed, a classical or t
An increasing number of litigations before the International Court of Justice (ICJ) concerns situations involving serious crimes (genocide, crimes against humanity and war crimes). However, to date, several of these litigations have failed to deliver justice in the form of reparations to the victims of these crimes. Two recurrent legal obstacles impede effective results: the limits imposed on this
The aim of our study was to test the hypothesis that administration of Regenerating islet-derived protein 3α (Reg3α), a protein described as having protective effects against oxidative stress and anti-inflammatory activity, could participate in the control of glucose homeostasis and potentially be a new target of interest in the treatment of type 2 diabetes. To that end the recombinant human Reg3α
Persons with type 2 diabetes born in the regions of famine exposures have disproportionally elevated risk of vision-threatening proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) in adulthood. However, the underlying mechanisms are not known. In the present study, we aimed to investigate the plausible molecular factors underlying progression to PDR. To study the association of genetic variants with PDR unde
The aim of this study was to describe and analyze the intra-organizational process during the implementation of evidence-based working methods in a Swedish municipality. The case study was conducted in the municipality of Malmö Stad, and the empirical material comprises documents and interviews with one program coordinator and four development leaders. Content analysis was used to analyze the docu
Biotech companies on the stock market follow a rigorous clinical process for their product development. The implications of this for investors is an alternative approach to stock valuation that incorporates the uncertainty to the potential future cash flows will be realized. The 3- step clinical process prior to regulatory approval each increase the probability of having drug candidates approved.
In today’s competitive market landscape, companies in an early phase with a business model that in the long term is expected to generate revenues from a global customer base, are facing increasing challenges to realise their growth targets. At the same time, global economical, technological, and societal megatrends forces incumbents and new challengers alike to adapt their modus operandi. The purp
Urban inequalities are one of the most important questions in contemporary times. One urban area that is struggling with inequalities is Malmö, the third largest city in Sweden. The new comprehensive plan for Malmö from 2018, states that a socially balanced city is necessary for further development of Malmö, to tackle inequalities the plan states that all citizens need to be able to shape society
Sammanfattning Titel: Byggsektorns syn på hållbar utveckling. Författare: Rebecca Kulneff Handledare: Moohammed Wasim Yahia, arkitekt och lärare vid boende och bostadsutveckling på Lunds Universitet och Mattias Ryckert, arkitekt. Examinator: Erik Johansson, lärare vid boende och bostadsutveckling på Lunds Universitet. Bakgrund: Bakgrunden till arbetet grundar sig i den problematik som uppdagAbstract Background: The background for this essay takes its place in the problem that has been detected due to the human activity on the planet. An interest took place for the perception of sustainability which led to the study on how the building sector relates to a sustainable society. Purpose: The purpose of this study is to gain comprehension about how the building sector is working for a
The increasingly interwoven landscape of development and security (often referred to as the ‘development-security nexus’) has become a salient feature of contemporary international relations. This thesis will investigate what this nexus entails and how it impacts the reality of developmental projects ‘on the ground’. From a theoretical perspective, this thesis will utilize the Foucauldian inspired
