BackgroundWe aimed to fill the gaps of knowledge concerning incidence rates and temporal trend, clinical features and risk factors for death for M. morganii bloodstream infections in south Sweden.MethodsThis was an observational, population-based study including all patients with at least one blood culture positive for Morganella morganii between 2013-2023 in Skåne, south Sweden.ResultsA total of

Cellular-based localization and sensing pave the way for a variety ofapplications across various domains, ranging from autonomous driv-ing to emergency care and intelligent traffic management. Althoughtraditional methods have been effective, they still face challenges such as therequirement for highly accurate models and the inherent complexity of thealgorithms. This thesis explores the potential

Shirin Ahlbäck Öberg belyser i sin artikel i detta nummer av Statsvetenskaplig tidskrift några viktiga aspekter av hur lärosätenas konstitutionella ställning har utvecklats fram till 1974 års regeringsform och därefter. I ett större perspektiv visar hennes bidrag också på några allmänna drag i regeringsformens tillkomst och betydelse för den offentliga verksamheten. I denna kommentar ger jag några

We investigate the use of atmospheric oxygen (O2) and carbon dioxide (CO2) measurements for the estimation of the fossil fuel component of atmospheric CO2 in the UK. Atmospheric potential oxygen (APO) - a tracer that combines O2 and CO2, minimizing the influence of terrestrial biosphere fluxes - is simulated at three sites in the UK, two of which make APO measurements. We present a set of model ex

Marine copepods are the most abundant type of zooplankton of the ocean in terms of biomass. They imprint their surrounding waters with a unique signature of chemical compounds, out of which copepodamides stand out. These polar lipids are recognized by some phytoplanktonic species, who induce defensive traits in response, including bioluminescence and toxin production, colony size plasticity or str

We use the GEOS-Chem global 3-D model and two inverse methods (the maximum a posteriori and ensemble Kalman filter) to infer regional methane (CH4) emissions and the corresponding stable-carbon-isotope source signatures from 2004-2020 across the globe using in situ and satellite remote sensing data. We use the Siegel estimator to determine linear trends from the in situ data. Over our 17-year stud

The modified sample-standard bracketing method (m-SSB) combines a sample-standard bracketing and an inter-element correction procedure to account for instrumental mass fractionation during multi-collector ICP-MS measurements. Precisions for Cu and Zn isotopes in plant and experimental granite leachate samples are in line with those obtained using other mass bias correction techniques. In addition,

Tropical forests of Central and South America represent hotspots of biological diversity. Tree squirrels of the tribe Sciurini are an excellent model system for the study of tropical biodiversity as these squirrels disperse exceptional distances, and after colonizing the tropics of the Central and South America, they have diversified rapidly. Here, we compare signals from DNA sequences with morpho

Ocean microbes are fundamental for the functioning of the Earth system. Yet, our understanding of how they are reacting to global change in terms of evolution is limited. Microbes typically grow in large populations and reproduce quickly, which may allow them to rapidly adapt to environmental stressors compared to larger organisms. However, genetic evidence of contemporary evolution in wild microb

Atmospheric measurements can be used as a tool to evaluate national greenhouse gas inventories through inverse modelling. Using 8 years of continuous methane (CH4) concentration data, this work assesses the United Kingdom's (UK) CH4 emissions over the period 2013-2020. Using two different inversion methods, we find mean emissions of 2.10±0.09 and 2.12±0.26Tgyr-1 between 2013 and 2020, an overall t

Magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) has been employed to investigate brain metabolite concentrations in vivo, and they vary during neuronal activation, across brain activity states, or upon disease with neurological impact. Whether resting brain metabolites correlate with functioning in behavioral tasks remains to be demonstrated in any of the widely used rodent models. This study tested the hyp

Universal screening for defective mismatch repair (dMMR) in colorectal cancer utilizes immunohistochemical staining for MLH1, MSH2, MSH6 and PSM2. Additionally, BRAF V600E mutations status and MLH1 hypermethylation should be performed to distinguish germline and somatic dMMR alterations. A decade of Danish population-based registries has been analysed regarding screening uptake, detection rate and

In this special session we wish to critique and reimagine the anthropocentric present. In contemporary consumerist society (Schmitt et al., 2022), the global “free market” is presented as the solution to the environmental and climate urgency through pillars like unlimited growth, responsibilized consumers, and not least, the domination of Nature (e.g. Hornborg 2019). There are alternatives, but thIn this special session we wish to critique and reimagine the anthropocentric present.

Achieving net-zero climate targets requires some level of carbon dioxide removal. Current assessments focus on tonnes of CO2 removed, without specifying what form these removals will take. Here, we show that countries’ climate pledges require approximately 1 (0.9–1.1) billion ha of land for removals. For over 40% of this area, the pledges envisage the conversion of existing land uses to forests, w
