Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is characterized by selective autoimmune destruction of the insulin producing beta-cells in the islets of Langerhans. When the beta-cells are destroyed exogenous administration of insulin is necessary for maintenance of glucose homeostasis. Allogeneic islet transplantation has been used as a means to circumvent the need for insulin administration and has in some cases been ab
Delli AJ, Lindblad B, Carlsson A, Forsander G, Ivarsson S-A, Ludvigsson J, Marcus C, Lernmark A; for the Better Diabetes Diagnosis (BDD) Study Group. Type 1 diabetes patients born to immigrants to Sweden increase their native diabetes risk and differ from Swedish patients in HLA types and islet autoantibodies. Aim: To determine whether type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) patients, having parents who i
Wood is one of the oldest building materials, which have recently gained more focus in aneffort to reach net zero emissions. The mechanical properties of wood are dependent on the moisture content, and a high moisture content can also lead to biological attacks from decay fungi. To avoid biological attacks the wood must be protected from moisture, and a traditional method is to pressure impregnate
Purpose: The purpose of this exploratory qualitative research is: First, to explore what brands understand by metaverse and how they perform branding in this new context. Second, to investigate how established constructivist approaches to branding are performed within the metaverse. And finally, to define what decentralized branding is and how it is linked to a decentralized metaverse. Additionall
After hatching, bird chicks are inevitably exposed to the thermal conditions of their environment. For the first stage of development chicks are not yet fully capable of maintaining a stable body temperature. During this time, their thermal environment can cause morphological and physiological priming. The plasticity of these responses and the extent to which they persist in the long-term is not w
Prebiotics are complex carbohydrates that are selectively fermented by beneficial gut bacteria, resulting in the production of health-promoting metabolites, such as organic acids like lactic acid, acetic acid, intermediates for butyrate and propionate. Baobab (Adansonia digitata) fruit contains many small seeds, often used for oil production. It’s by-product, baobab seed press cake, is rich in lig
The aim of the project was to develop a methodology for the chromatographic analysis able to identify the key odorants in meaty food products. The approach was based on the analysis of an already in market product and the theoretical background of the meaty flavors sensorially. Firstly, a custom-made flavor was created for the experiments covering as much as possible a broad area of compounds prec
Skattelättnadsregeln för medlemmar i oäkta bostadsföretag, som togs bort från och med inkomståret 2016, innebar att de kunde göra ett avdrag på den beskattningsbara bostadsförmånen. I och med borttagandet av denna regel påverkas cirka 5000 privatpersoner av en högre utgift för sitt boende. Att en bostadsrättsförening klassas som ett oäkta bostadsföretag beror ofta på att de har en stor andel lokalUp until recently, members of co-operative housing associations with a high income deriving from non-housing activities could benefit from a tax exemption rule. This rule was last applied in 2015 and meant that a deduction could be made for the taxable housing benefit. With the removal of this rule approximately 5,000 private individuals are affected by a higher cost for their accommodation. When
Selektiv distribution är en distributionsform som innebär att de produkter som säljs inom systemet endast säljs till auktoriserade grossister och återförsäljare. De får i sin tur endast sälja till andra auktoriserade aktörer inom systemet eller till slutkund. För att bli auktoriserad ställs vanligtvis höga krav. De gäller bland annat krav på utbildad personal, försäljningsställets utformning och l
En av de viktigaste grundstenarna inom EG-rätten är skapandet av en gemensam marknad. Varumärkesrätten är en territoriellt begränsad rättighet som kan utnyttjas för att hindra parallellimport av produkter inom EU. Detta leder naturligtvis till konflikter mellan principen om fri rörlighet för varor och varumärkesinnehavarens intressen. EG-domstolen har i en rad rättsfall försökt skapa en balans mel
Lateral moraines are key features of glacial landscapes in high-alpine mountain areas. Research on lateral moraine formation is mostly limited to clean-ice glaciers; lateral moraine formation at the margins of debris-covered glaciers is currently poorly understood in an Alpine and sedimentological context. This thesis focuses on the reconstruction of processes of lateral moraine formation at the d
The 5th generation (5G) has recently specified a new spectrum range, FR2- 5G New Radio (5G-NR), to provide higher spectral efficiency and channel capacity for ubiquitous cellular connectivity where the user ends can be in various types such as picocell stations, sensor nodes, cloud servers, hand-held devices, and so on. Due to the advantage of phased array antennas in performing beam-forming, and
Diabetic peripheral polyneuropathy (PN) is a common and serious complication of diabetes. The prevalence of PN is rising with the global burden of type 2 diabetes. The causal mechanisms of PN are not fully understood, but both vascular and metabolic factors play a role. New methods of investigating PN need to be correlated with standard methods in well-defined, population-based cohorts. Objective
Den 1 januari 2016 skärptes kraven för luftutsläpp från förbränningsanläggningar genom För-ordningen (2013:252) om stora förbränningsanläggningar. I förordningen skärptes bland annat kraven för utsläpp av kväveoxider, NOX. Till följd av de skärpta kraven berördes Kraftringens produktionsanläggning Gunnesboverket. På anläggningen finns tre biooljeeldade hetvatten-pannor för fjärrvärmeproduktion därNew regulations regarding emissions of air pollutants came into force as of January 1st 2016 in Sweden. The regulations are found in “The Regulation on Large Combustion Plants” SFS 2013:252. The regulation contained stricter regulations of NOX emissions which affected the energy company Kraftringen and their three biooil-fueled boilers, at the heating plant Gunnesboverket, that are used for produc
Leap-frog migration, i.e. when a northerly breeding population/species migrates further south compare to southerly breeding population/species, is a common migration pattern in birds. However, it is still unknown which factors facilitate the evolution of such a migration pattern pattern. A textbook example of a species exhibiting leap-frog migration is the Common Ringed Plover Charadrius hiaticula
To improve functional properties, 2 different types of egg albumen powder (high gel instant and ordinary) were hydrolyzed with four proteases (FPC, NPU, BAP and PSP) using different protease concentration (low, medium and high) at 50C for 1 h and subsequently polymerized by transglutaminase at 40C for 24 h. The enzymatic modified egg albumen was analyzed for foaming properties: foamability as %ove
