Based on his study on the American black ghetto and the French working-class banlieues, Loic Wacquant (2007) conceptualises territorial stigmatisation to capture how the negative perception of relegated urban territories affects their inhabitants and the public policies toward them. Most of the subsequent studies on the topic are done in similar Western post-Fordist and post-colonial settings, and
Background and Purpose- Apoptosis has been implicated in atherosclerosis and plaque rupture. This population-based study examined the relationship between 3 markers of apoptosis, that is, FADD (Fas-associated protein with death domain), caspase-3, and caspase-8, and incidence of ischemic stroke. Methods- The study population included 4356 participants from the MDCS (Malmö Diet and Cancer Study) ca
A conspicuous feature of the amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS)-associated protein SOD1 is that its maturation into a functional enzyme relies on local folding of two disordered loops into a catalytic subdomain. To drive the disorder-to-order transition, the protein employs a single Zn2+ ion. The question is then if the entropic penalty of maintaining such disordered loops in the immature apoSOD1
Objective: The aim was to document empirical observations about antecedents to and practices of unsuitable behaviours amongst surgical trainees and develop an interview guide that could be used for the selection process. Design: A mixed methods design was adopted combining a survey distributed to senior surgeons and heads of departments, followed by semi-structured interviews with experienced surg
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
It is generally believed that pregnancy is mediated by a Th2 response, which includes cytokines that promote placental growth and are involved in inducing tolerance to the foetus. If the balance between Th1/and Th2-mediated cytokines is disrupted, systemic and local changes could predispose the foetus to future disease. Therefore, a shift in the Th1/Th2 balance during pregnancy, possibly caused by
Background: Currently there is no evidence on the effectiveness of Individual Placement and Support (IPS) in Sweden. Aims: To determine the effectiveness of IPS on vocational outcomes among people with severe mental illness (SMI) in a Swedish context. A secondary aim was to evaluate a community integration effect. Methods: A randomized controlled trial with a parallel design was used. Mental healt
Background: The increasing concentration of populations into large conurbations in recent decades has not been matched by international health assessments, which remain largely focused at the country level. We aimed to demonstrate the use of routine survey data to compare the health of large metropolitan centres across Europe and determine the extent to which differences are due to socio-economic
Despite growing interest in animal social networks, surprisingly little is known about whether individuals are consistent in their social network characteristics. Networks are rarely repeatedly sampled; yet an assumption of individual consistency in social behaviour is often made when drawing conclusions about the consequences of social processes and structure. A characterization of such social ph
Off-gases generated during steelmaking are to a large extent used as fuels in process units within the plant. The surplus gases are commonly supplied to a plant for combined heat and power production. The main objective of this study has been to techno-economically investigate the feasibility of an innovative way of producing methanol from these off-gases, thereby upgrading the economic value of t
The effects of plant invasions on plant communities are often assessed at a few sites or in a particular type of habitat, while studies in different habitat types are scarce. We investigated plant communities in the presence and absence of the invasive ornamental herb, Lupinus polyphyllus, in four habitat types: meadow, forest, road verge and wasteland, in two geographic regions by comparing vascu
Parasites exert a major impact on the eco-evolutionary dynamics of their hosts and the associated biotic environment. Migration constitutes an effective means for long-distance invasions of vector-borne parasites and promotes their rapid spread. Yet, ecological and spatial information on population-specific host-parasite connectivity is essentially lacking. Here, we address this question in a syst

This guide provides advice on good practice, strategies and tools for researchers and research groups inte-

Medical care in Nepal is largely financed by the individual, and although insurance programs and subsidies exist, they are limited in coverage, amount of assistance provided, and level of enrollment. Medical needs that extend beyond basic health services, specifically following acute injury can lead to financial difficulties that may jeopardize the ability to maintain basic needs and can push peop
The understanding of solid state physics is a significant part of understanding the foundations of modern technology and engineering. Applications of solid state physics are broad; it includes solar panels, laser technology, transistors, light emitting diodes (LEDs), and many more, all of which have been significant technological advancements that have offered people efficient and useful devices a
This thesis investigates the financial viability of green hydrogen production for mobility applications across four European countries: Germany, Norway, Denmark and Spain. Given the rising importance of hydrogen in hard-to-electrify sectors such as (heavy-duty) transport, the study focuses on understanding how system design and local energy conditions influence the Levelised Cost of Hydrogen (LCOH
The global adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), developed by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), aims to enhance financial reporting transparency, comparability, and reliability by standardizing accounting practices and limiting managerial discretion. While IFRS has improved accounting quality in many regions, its impact depends on prior local GAAP quali
