The extent to which increased liver fat content influences differences in circulating metabolites and/or lipids between low-birth-weight (LBW) individuals, at increased risk of type 2 diabetes (T2D), and normal-birth-weight (NBW) controls is unknown. The objective of the study was to perform untargeted serum metabolomics and lipidomics analyses in 26 healthy, non-obese early-middle-aged LBW men, i

Bioelectronics can potentially complement classical therapies in nonchronic treatments, such as immunotherapy and cancer. In addition to functionality, minimally invasive implantation methods and bioresorbable materials are central to nonchronic treatments. The latter avoids the need for surgical removal after disease relief. Self-organizing substrate-free organic electrodes meet these criteria an

Adamantane, the smallest diamondoid molecule with a symmetrical cage, contains two distinct carbon sites, CH and CH2. The ionization/excitation of the molecule leads to the cage opening and strong structural reorganization. While theoretical predictions suggest that the carbon site CH primarily causes the cage opening, the role of the other CH2 site remains unclear. In this study, we used advanced

This chapter provides a succinct overview of the rapidly developing field of scholarship on far-right manifestations across Europe from a gendered perspective. Its starting point is to acknowledge that gender plays a crucial role in grasping the ideological underpinnings and the modus operandi of the various entities, which are generally associated with the larger field of socio-political manifest

ESSnuSB is a design study for an experiment to measure the CP violation in the leptonic sector at the second neutrino oscillation maximum using a neutrino beam driven by the uniquely powerful ESS linear accelerator. The reduced impact of systematic errors on sensitivity at the second maximum allows for a very precise measurement of the CP violating parameter. This review describes the fundamental

Presently under construction in Lund, Sweden, the European Spallation Source (ESS) will be the world’s brightest neutron source. As such, it has the potential for a particle physics program with a unique reach and which is complementary to that available at other facilities. This paper describes proposed particle physics activities for the ESS. These encompass the exploitation of both the neutrons

BACKGROUND: Gut microbiota have been implicated in atherosclerotic disease, but their relation with subclinical coronary atherosclerosis is unclear. This study aimed to identify associations between the gut microbiome and computed tomography-based measures of coronary atherosclerosis and to explore relevant clinical correlates.METHODS: We conducted a cross-sectional study of 8973 participants (50

Biståndsminister Johan Forssell bör omgående se till att bidragskranarna till odemokratiska organisationer stängs.

Koranbränningar väcker starka känslor, vilket bekräftades under onsdagens aktion utanför Stockholms moské. Men ett förbud skulle bara gynna uppfattningen att muslimer är intoleranta och inte accepterar yttrandefriheten.

Koranbränningarna har skapat en internationell kris, där det sprids en felaktig bild att svenska staten står bakom handlingarna. Islamiska samarbetsrådet underblåser konflikten med uttalanden som kan uppfattas som hets mot Sveriges myndigheter. Antidemokratiska krafter ska inte finansieras med skattemedel.

Krisen visar att samverkansmodellen är negativ för såväl muslimer i Sverige som den svenska demokratin.

Efter att avhandlingen ”Global politisk islam?” godkändes i Lund i förra veckan förklarade Torsten Jansson varför han ville underkänna den.Sameh Egyptson bemöter själv kritiken och redogör varför han anser att hans avhandling är ett viktigt bidrag till att i grunden kunna skilja på islam och islamism.

Sameh Egyptsons avhandling om Muslimska brödraskapets kopplingar i Sverige har väckt kritik. Här beskriver han själv sina slutsatser.

Sameh Egyptson svarar på kritiken – och får svar direkt av Petter Larsson

Mattias Gardell driver fortfarande sin gamla murkna tes att Muslimska Brödraskapet, MB mest liknar svensk kristdemokrati och socialdemokrati. Han är då blind för att dessa båda partier har demokrati som sin överideologi, man är principiell demokrat först och kristdemokrat eller socialdemokrat sedan.
