Purpose: From the background of the dramatic increase of urban tourism, framed by the concept of overtourism, the purpose of this paper is to analyze and discuss current dynamic processes of urban tourism growth, as presented in the scientific literature. With the help of a literature review, this paper aims to discuss current definitions and conceptualizations of overtourism and discuss the drivi

The purpose of this paper is to describe how Chinese national adolescent mental health policy is translated into local plans and practice by means of the theoretical perspective of the policy triangle. Document analysis of national, provincial andlocal policy documents and semi-structured interviews with local policy actors were performed. National policies were implemented by a top-down process.

In this essay it is argued that Bergman deviated from his highly critical depictions of bourgeois life in the films of the 1960s and 1970s, from Persona (1966) to the television series Scenes from a Marriage (1973), in Fanny and Alexander (1982), his final contribution to films made for the cinema. Bergman himself came from an upper-class bourgeois background, and by his own account he did not tak

Expression of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptors HER1 and HER2 has been implicated in tumour growth and poor survival, whereas expression of HER3 and HER4 has been associated with improved survival of bladder cancer patients. The balance between the expression of the EGF family members may therefore have a role to play in determining the final outcome in cancer cells. To check this, we ex

This chapter is a first attempt to capture the phenomenon of inter-firm credit between breweries and bars and restaurants in Sweden. I ask three interrelated questions: 1. Why do breweries in Sweden provide credit to bars and restaurants? 2. How is this credit designed? 3. What are the effects of this credit relationship? Question 2 is about the design of this credit and focuses on the aspects of

Rationale, Aims, and Objectives: Primary health care often has overall responsibility for elderly patients and their medication treatment. This is a challenging task due to the issue of multiple caregivers, different systems for documentation and multimorbidity among the elderly. The multiprofessional project SÄKLÄK2 was developed to raise drug safety in Swedish primary health care, and this study

A search for flavour-changing neutral current (FCNC) events via the coupling of a top quark, a photon, and an up or charm quark is presented using 81 fb−1 of proton–proton collision data taken at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV with the ATLAS detector at the LHC. Events with a photon, an electron or muon, a b-tagged jet, and missing transverse momentum are selected. A neural network based on kin

Chemistry and kinematic studies can determine the origins of stellar population across the Milky Way. The metallicity distribution function of the bulge indicates that it comprises multiple populations, the more metal-poor end of which is particularly poorly understood. It is currently unknown if metal-poor bulge stars ([Fe/H]

This paper attempts to assemble a conceptual framework for understanding to what extent an energy technology is simply a way of putting nature to work, and to what extent it is a way of putting other segments of global society to work. The turn to fossil energy reversed the relation between energy and space, as fossil fuels henceforth propelled new transport technologies that provided access to in

This article develops a method for simultaneous estimation of density functions for a collection of populations of protein backbone angle pairs using a data-driven, shared basis that is constructed by bivariate spline functions defined on a triangulation of the bivariate domain. The circular nature of angular data is taken into account by imposing appropriate smoothness constraints across boundari

Peripheral artery disease (PAD) is caused by atherosclerosis and associated with an increased risk of leg amputation, cardiovascular disease, and death. A healthy diet has been shown to reduce the risk of cardiovascular events, but relationships between diet, fiber intake, and incidence of PAD are virtually unknown. The aim was to investigate the long-term impact of diet on the development of PAD

Epidemiological data indicate decreased risk for development and growth of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) among patients with diabetes mellitus (DM). On the other hand, DM adds to increased cardiovascular (CV) morbidity and mortality. In a nationwide observational cohort study of patients registered in the Swedish Vascular Register and the Swedish National Diabetes Register, we evaluated potentia

Many state-of-the-art applications for linear accelerators, such as free-electron lasers (FELs) and plasma-wakefield accelerators (PWFAs), require small normalized emittances, and PWFAs in particular are very sensitive to transverse slice offsets along the beam. Dispersive systems, such as bunch compressors, can cause different chromatic aberrations, one of which yields transverse slice offsets. I

Maternal drug abuse during pregnancy is a rapidly escalating societal problem. Psychostimulants, including amphetamine, cocaine, and methamphetamine, are amongst the illicit drugs most commonly consumed by pregnant women. Neuropharmacology concepts posit that psychostimulants affect monoamine signaling in the nervous system by their affinities to neurotransmitter reuptake and vesicular transporter

There is a well-documented tension in many nonprofts - particularly those seeking government contracts or working in areas that compete with the private sector - between the institutional logics of business-market and nonproft-mission. This paper presents a case study of a century old Swedish nonproft. It suggests that in the presence of competing hybrid logics, organizational actors respond accor

The need to integrate climate change adaptation (CCA) considerations into disaster risk management (DRM) systems is widely recognised. However, successful integration, and thus the implementation of integrated planning measures, is difficult in practice. To understand and reduce the problems encountered, it is important to investigate systemic challenges. These challenges are rooted in the interac

Direct neuronal reprogramming can be achieved using different approaches: by expressing neuronal transcription factors or microRNAs; and by knocking down neuronal repressive elements. However, there still exists a high variability in terms of the quality and maturity of the induced neurons obtained, depending on the reprogramming strategy employed. Here, we evaluate different long-term culture con

Introduction: Differential patterns of brain atrophy on structural magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed four reproducible subtypes of Alzheimer's disease (AD): (1) “typical”, (2) “limbic-predominant”, (3) “hippocampal-sparing”, and (4) “mild atrophy”. We examined the neurobiological characteristics and clinical progression of these atrophy-defined subtypes. Methods: The four subtypes were rep
