MikroRNA-96 och sin roll i prostatacancer För att en cell ska vara hälsosam och kunna uppfylla sina funktioner så måste cellen producera den rätta mängden och rätta sorten RNA-molekyler och proteiner som är kodade i cellens DNA. På grund av detta så är genuttrycket strikt reglerat i varje cell. När det gäller cancerceller är balansen störd vilket innebär att cellen delar sig okontrollerat och bil
Construction of wind turbines has increased these recent years and is expected to escalate more in the nearest future. The expansion of wind power as an energy source requires specific and comprehensive transport, when production is far away from the installation site. Generally, the development of turbines has gone towards bigger turbines with longer rotor blades. As the blades grow in length, op
With the growing pool of deposited protein structures, the need for structural analysis tools grows. In study of amino acid substitutions the variety of analysis tools is high; nevertheless, there is a lack of programs serving specific purpose, such as identifying if an amino acid substitution would cause a clash in the structure or not, given just the structure of the original protein. In this stAnalysing structural damage caused by changes in proteins In an organism, even only one single change of an amino acid can sometimes lead to disease, if the protein is a part of an important biological function. Because of that, it is important to study those changes and be able to predict if an amino acid substitution would cause harm. There are various ways a substitution can be harmful to a pr
The decline suffered by grassland pollinators in the south of Sweden may have great consequences resulting in the loss of important ecosystem services. However, cities may mitigate this effect as parks and other urban green areas can act as refuges for high pollinator diversity. Here I try to assess the status of the butterfly populations in the city of Malmö using as a reference a study carried o
Kriminalvården är värld som många har åsikter om, men samtidigt har få kännedom om vad som verkligen sker däri. Makt förekommer i olika former och därmed är det viktigt att beskriva ur ett inifrånperspektiv hur maktspelet på en anstalt kan se ut. Syftet med den här studien är att undersöka om synen på institutionell maktutövning skiljer sig åt mellan gamla och nya kriminalvårdare. Jag har med hjä
The Malmö Breast Tomosynthesis Screening Trial is a large population based screening trial designed to evaluate the use of one-view breast tomosynthesis, with reduced compression force, as a stand-alone screening modality. Initial results show a substantially increased cancer detection rate compared to mammography and a still-acceptable elevation of the recall and false-positive rates.
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to provide a cohesive overview of the available self-service and customer value literature, identify customer value in self-service kiosks (SSKs), and analyze this value from the customer experience perspective.Design/methodology/approach – The study comprises a systematic literature review of available works on customer value.Findings – The paper presents co
Decentralized anaerobic digestion (AD) of manure and organic residues is a possible strategy to improve carbon and nutrient cycling within agricultural regions, meanwhile generating renewable energy. To date, there has been limited adoption of decentralized AD technology in industrialized countries owing to low profitability for plant operators. There remains a need to demonstrate the wider sustai
A bark beetle attack in a Norway spruce forest in southwestern Sweden killed most trees, which however mostly remained standing, and caused elevated nitrate concentrations and subsequent acidification in the soil water. Long-term monitoring showed very low nitrate concentrations in the soil water before the bark beetle attack. High nitrate concentrations remained throughout five years after the in
Most of the care in nursing homes is palliative in nature, as it is the oldest and the frailest people who live in nursing homes. The aim of this study was to explore next of kin’s experiences of participating in the care of older persons at nursing homes. A qualitative design was used, based on semi-structured interviews with 40 next of kin, and analyzed using qualitative content analysis.

Characterizing system performance under disruption is a growing area of research, particularly for describing a system's resilience to disruptive events. Within the framework of system resilience, this study approaches the minimization of a multiple-commodity system's vulnerability to multiple disruptions. The vulnerability of a system is defined by the degree to which commodities can no longer fl
Current trends in energy supply and use within the building sector in Egypt are patently unsustainable and uneconomical; they are not environmentally and sometimes not even socially viable. Renewable energy has recently started to attract considerable attention as a future energy source. After major problems with electricity blackouts the photovoltaic (PV) market, in particular, has been growing s
We study the spectrum of generalized Cesàro operators Tg acting on the class of growth spaces A- α. We show how the problem of determining the spectrum is related to boundedness of standard weighted Bergman projections on weighted L∞-spaces. Using this relation we establish some general spectral properties of these operators, and explicitly compute the spectrum for a large class of symbols g.
This population-based time-trend study examines gun violence rates among males in Sweden during the years 1996 to 2015 and compares the rate in Sweden to other Western European countries. Data were collected from six registries and are presented descriptively per 100,000 inhabitants. The risks among males in Sweden increased considerably in both lethal and non-lethal gun victimization and perpetra
Due to its bioactive compounds, blue maize flour is a valuable ingredient for developing gluten-free products. The incorporation of alternative flours into gluten-free pasta is a challenge as it usually results in products that, despite their enhanced nutraceutical features, show reduced quality characteristics. Composite pasta was prepared with variable (25, 50 and 75%) contents of flours from wh
Warming may increase the extent and intensity of insect defoliations within Arctic ecosystems. A thorough understanding of the implications of this for litter decomposition is essential to make predictions of soil-atmosphere carbon (C) feedbacks. Soil nitrogen (N) and C cycles naturally are interlinked, but we lack a detailed understanding of how insect herbivores impact these cycles. In a laborat
