Association of recurrent venous thromboembolism and circulating microRNAs

Background: Patients with unprovoked first venous thromboembolism (VTE) are at a high risk of recurrence. Although circulating microRNAs (miRNAs) have been found to be associated with VTE and are markers of hypercoagulability, this study is the first to examine whether circulating miRNAs are associated with the risk of VTE recurrence. Results: A nested case-control study design was used where plas

Mini-grid hydropower for rural electrification in mozambique : Meeting local needs with supply in a nexus approach

UN Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 7 states that access to affordable, reliable, sustainable, and modern energy should be provided for all by 2030. Mozambique is one of the poorest countries on earth but has abundant supply of energy resources. The electrification rate, however, has been slow. Rural electrification is hampered by lack of basic infrastructure, institutional barriers, and low abi

Ammonia measurements with femtosecond laser-induced plasma spectroscopy

Femtosecond laser-induced plasma spectroscopy for in situ ammonia (NH 3 ) measurements was demonstrated in NH 3 ∕N 2 mixtures. When a femtosecond laser at 800 nm was focused at the flow field, the parent NH 3 molecules would be photolyzed to generate electronics excited NH fragments, and then indirect measurements of NH 3 could be realized by detecting the NH fluorescence (A 3 Π − X 3 Σ −

Stråldosen till boende i nedfallsdrabbade områden: Preliminära uppskattningar efter svenska förhållanden

Utifrån modeller som tagits fram efter radioekologiska studier av svenska förhållanden utförda efter Tjernobylolyckan 1986 visar preliminära beräkningar att de avstyrda stråldoser som kan åstadkommas med sanering av byggnadshus respektive strikta livsmedelsrestriktioner är relativt lika (ca 25%). En kombination av dessa åtgärder kan teoretiskt sänka den summerade stråldosen med 50% under ett 50-år

Extent and mechanism of coalescence in rotor-stator mixer food-emulsion emulsification

Food-emulsions often have high volume fractions of dispersed phase and are thus expected to show coalescence during emulsification, however, food-emulsion coalescence is difficult to measure in homogenizer equipment. This study experimentally estimates the rates of fragmentation and coalescence in a high viscosity and high volume fraction model emulsion subjected to pilot-scale rotor-stator mixing

Occupational balance, work and life satisfaction in working cohabiting parents in Sweden

Introduction: Occupational balance is the experience of having the right amount and right variation between work, domestic work, leisure, rest, and sleep. There is limited knowledge about which factors predict parents’ combined occupational balance, and if the combined occupational balance is associated with work and life satisfaction. Aim: The first aim was to explore whether domestic work and ch

PDGF-B Is Required for Development of the Glymphatic System

The glymphatic system is a highly polarized cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) transport system that facilitates the clearance of neurotoxic molecules through a brain-wide network of perivascular pathways. Herein we have mapped the development of the glymphatic system in mice. Perivascular CSF transport first emerges in hippocampus in newborn mice, and a mature glymphatic system is established in the cort

“Partner in Prime”? Effects of repeated mobile security priming on attachment security and perceived stress in daily life

Lacking secure attachment representations is associated with vulnerability to mental and physical health problems, perhaps mediated by increased susceptibility to stress and impaired emotion regulation. Even though cognitive representations of self and others tend to favor confirmation over information, research has shown that adult attachment security can be positively influenced. In a randomized

Osteopontin protects against lung injury caused by extracellular histones

Extracellular histones are present in the airways because of cell death occurring during inflammation. They promote inflammation and cause tissue damage due to their cationic nature. The anionic phosphoglycoprotein osteopontin (OPN) is expressed at high levels during airway inflammation and has been ascribed both pro- and anti-inflammatory roles. In this study, it was hypothesized that OPN may neu

Historia i futurum : Progression i historia i styrdokument och läroböcker 1919-2012

Historia i futurum handlar på ett övergripande plan om synen på historieämnet i svensk skola från 1919 till 2011 såsom det kommer till uttryck i styrdokument och lärobokstexter. Den är också en av de första studierna av hur kunskapsutveckling i historia kan uttryckas teoretiskt och hur sådana tankegångar har tillämpats – eller inte tillämpats – på grundskolans och gymnasiets historieämne. I princiFacing an unknown future, the meaning of history is not primarily a fixed set of knowledge about the past, but a well-developed historical consciousness. This is a generic skill, emanating from an understanding of history as something that we are, and at the same time as something that we create. From a historical-cultural perspective, the learning process can be described with a point of departur

Personal networks and crime victimization among Swedish youth

We combine routine activity theory, lifestyle-victimization theory, and a social network perspective to examine crime victimization. In particular, we study to what extent crime victimization is associated with having close contacts who have been victimized and/or who engage in risky lifestyles. We use the data (collected in 2014) of 1,051 native Swedes and 1,108 Iranian and Yugoslavian first- or

Balanced Drive Currents in 10–20 nm Diameter Nanowire All-III-V CMOS on Si

We use a self-aligned, gate-last process providing n-type (InAs) and p-type (GaSb) MOSFET co-integration with a common gate-stack and demonstrate balanced drive current capability at about 100 μA/μm . By utilizing HSQ-spacers, control of gate-alignment allows to fabricate both n- and p-type devices based on the same type of vertical heterostructure InAs/GaSb nanowire with short gate-lengths down t

Kampen mot plastskräpet har bara börjat

Längs stränderna i Italien, Spanien och vid Öresund har vi alla hittat plastföremål som flyter i havet och ligger på stränderna. I Europa hamnar upp till en halv miljon ton plastavfall i haven varje år. Det motsvarar 66 000 sopbilar som dumpar sitt avfall direkt i havet istället för återvinningscentralen. Efter att frågan vuxit under de senaste åren har EU-länderna nu tagit upp kampen mot detta pr

Polyamines and microbiota in bicuspid and tricuspid aortic valve aortopathy

Polyamines are small aliphatic cationic molecules synthesized via a highly regulated pathway and involved in general molecular and cellular phenomena. Both mammalian cells and microorganisms synthesize polyamines, and both sources may contribute to the presence of polyamines in the circulation. The dominant location for microorganisms within the body is the gut. Accordingly, the gut microbiota pro
