Popular Abstract in Swedish I alla flercelliga organismer behövs utbyte av information mellan cellerna, som bygger upp kroppen. För detta ändamål är cellerna försedda med små antenner, som kan ta emot signaler och kallas därför receptorer. Receptorer kan vara uppbyggda på olika sätt. De flesta receptorer slingrar sig sju gånger genom membranet och har ett gemensamt sätt att fortleda signaler till Seven-transmembrane, G-protein coupled receptors play a central role in physiology since they facilitate cell communication in multicellular organisms by recognition of a broad range of ligands. They also represent important drug targets. Unfortunately, for many of these receptors the endogenous ligands, and, hence, their physiological functions, remain to be identified. These receptors are usuall

In the late 17th century, a new style of decorations was developing in Sweden. Brutal flaming depictions of hell started covering the ceilings of the small parish churches. The trend would catch fire and over the course of the 18th century over 500 decorations were made in churches across western Sweden. This essay studies iconographic starting points for the style in the depictions the final judg

The Canary Islands are an island chain created by volcanic activity, despite extensive studies of the region there is not a clear consensus of their process of creation, primarily there is a question concerning the origin of the magmas which has built up this chain of islands. The largest contributor to these uncertainties is the continued volcanic activity on older islands, something which does n

Den 8 november 2024 infördes den nya förverkandeformen självständigt förverkande i 36 kap. 5 § BrB. Bestämmelsen innebär att egendom numera kan förverkas utan att åklagaren behöver styrka att något konkret brott har begåtts. För att förverka egendom genom självständigt förverkande är det tillräckligt att åklagaren gör det ”klart mera sannolikt” att egendom härrör från någon ospecificerad brottslig

Early recognition and management of sports-related concussion (SRC), including removal from the sports activity, is essential for player safety and to prevent long-term symptoms. A graduated, stepwise rehabilitation protocol is implemented to allow the athlete to return to sports. In 2022, the 6th international consensus statement on concussion in sports was presented, which has now been adapted t

Aims Aortic valve calcification (AVC) is an underlying pathophysiological mechanism for aortic stenosis that is common in the elderly, but less is known in younger individuals. The aim was to study the prevalence and associated characteristics of AVC in a middle-aged general population. Methods and results Data were obtained from the Swedish CArdioPulmonary bioImage Study (SCAPIS) comprising 30 15

Perceiving and understanding human motion is a fundamental problem in computer vision, with diverse applications encompassing sports analytics, healthcare monitoring, entertainment, and intelligent interactive systems. Multi-camera systems, by capturing multiple viewpoints simultaneously, enable robust tracking and reconstruction of human poses in 3D, overcoming limitations of single-view approach

The subfamily Stiriinae (Lepidoptera, Noctuidae) is a group of ∼160 described moth species, ∼91% of which occur in the Nearctic, with species diversity centered in the deserts, grasslands, and adjacent foothills of the mountain ranges of Mexico. We infer the first species-level phylogeny for the subfamily using 8 protein-coding genes. While some lineages are primarily leaf or flower feeders, the m

This study explored how young Swedish adults aged 20–30 describe and understand experiences of weight-based bullying during their school years, as well as their ways of coping. A qualitative design using semi-structured interviews was employed. The sample consisted of nine young adults with a mean age of 24.7 years, including two males and seven females. All participants had lived with overweight

Purpose: To evaluate: (i) the relationship between intraocular pressure (IOP) reduction attained with a fixed treatment protocol and the untreated IOP level; (ii) the consistency of IOP reduction over time; and (iii) whether there is a threshold pretreatment IOP level below which IOP reduction might be less effective. Results are based on 128 patients with glaucoma with field defects, who were ran

In this thesis a variety of sampling methods have been utilised to assess the amount of deposited activity, mainly of Cs-137, from the Chernobyl accident and from the nuclear weapons tests. Starting with the Chernobyl accident in 1986 sampling of air and rain was used to determine the composition and amount of radioactive debris from this accident, brought to southern Sweden by the weather systems

The lack of human resources is one of the main bottlenecks to achieving the Millennium Development Goals on maternal and child health. A coherent national policy, recognized across government, needs to be in place to overcome this especially in countries severely affected by HIV/AIDS. Such a policy should cover selection of pre-service students, the qualifications of trainers and training sites, s

Att förstå och att bli förstådd är avgörande för att människor inte ska missuppfatta varandra. I de fall det inte går att avläsa omgivningens reaktioner så som t.ex. på internet, är risken för feltolkningar eller missförstånd betydligt större. Om andra misstolkar eller missuppfattar det som har skrivits kan personen göra sig skyldig till brottet förtal. Om en kommentar får någon att känna sig illaTo understand and to be understood is crucial for people not to be misinterpreting each other. In those cases where it isn´t possible to read the ambient reaction such as for example, on the Internet, the risk of misinterpretation or misunderstanding is much greater. If others misinterpret or misunderstand what has been written, the person may be guilty of the offense of defamation. If a comment m

Under de senaste årtiondena har Brå publicerat två rapporter som visat att invandrade personer samt personer med utländsk bakgrund är överrepresenterade bland de som registreras för brott. Intresset för denna fråga växer i takt med att invandringen till Sverige ökar. Situationen utnyttjas av nationalistiska och socialkonservativa partier och samhällsklimatet har nu hårdnat till den grad att den ökOver the past decades, The Swedish National Council for Crime Prevention has conducted two studies showing that immigrants in Sweden and people with foreign backgrounds are overrepresented amongst crime suspects. As migration to Sweden increases these studies have received more attention. Nationalistic and social conservative parties are taking advantage of the situation, why the political climate

Syftet med studien är att undersöka hur bygg- och fastighetsbranschen arbetar med problematiken kring värmeböljor och höga inomhustemperaturer i bostäder. Målsättningen är att få förståelse för problematiken, utreda och bidra med kunskap inom ämnet för bostäder i befintligt bestånd respektive nyproduktion.

Establishing a technically practical method to generate representative model catalysts for the use in characterizations and testing prior to catalyst implementation in chemical process units would allow for a more sophisticated understanding of the underlying catalytic mechanisms. As a step towards establishing such a method, generating non-agglomerated, spherical NiMo nanoparticles, with diameter

Recent research has noticed that the picture of the second-generation immigrants negotiating their identity in media space is different and far more complex than the first generation. With their emergence in the new age of digitalisation, the second-generation immigrant is offered more media choices and freedom of access to the two most important cultural sets of host and homeland country to make

När High Court of Justice avkunnade dom i målet Bell v Tavistock konstaterade domstolen att barn under 16 års ålder som lider av könsdysfori högst troligen inte kan ge ett giltigt samtycke till pubertetsbromsande hormonbehandling eller könskonträr hormonbehandling. Världen fick då ta del av berättelsen om en ung flicka som genomgått identitetsbekräftande vård och sedan ångrat sitt beslut. Denna upWhen the High Court of Justice ruled in Bell v Tavistock that children under the age of 16 suffering from gender dysphoria most likely could not consent to being treated with puberty blockers or cross-sex hormones, the verdict told the story of a young girl who underwent gender-affirming treatment and later came to regret her decision. This essay studied the decision-making capacity of children an
