Alla djur uppfattar världen med sina sinnen, vilka ger information till beslut och rörelser. Tyvärr har sinnena begränsningar och när de upphör att ge pålitlig information kommer djurets överlevnad att hotas. Synsinnet till exempel utmanas dagligen, eftersom dess signalstyrka minskar när mörkret faller och ökar igen när solen går upp. I denna avhandling undersökte jag synsystemets anpassningar hosAll animals perceive the world through their senses, which form the basis for their decisions and motor actions. However, when these all-important senses reach their limit and cease to provide reliable information, the animal’s survival is threatened. Among the senses, vision is brought to its limits on a daily basis, because its signal strength is diminished as night falls, and increases again as

Alternative fuels have been proposed as a means for future energy-secure and environmentally sustainable transportation. This review and benchmarking show that several of the alternative fuels (e.g. methanol, ethanol, higher alcohols, RME, HVO, DME, and biogas/CNG) work well with several different engine concepts such as conventional SI, DICI, and dual fuel, and with the emerging concepts HCCI, RC

The electronic spectra of three rhombic type 1 blue copper proteins, nitrite reductase, pseudoazurin, and cucumber basic protein, have been studied by ab initio multiconfigurational second-order perturbation theory (the CASPT2 method). The six lowest excitations have been calculated and assigned with an error of less than 1800 cm-1. The singly occupied orbital in the ground-state forms a strongly

Purpose: To report incisional hernia (IH) incidence, abdominal wall (AW) discomfort and quality of life (QoL) 5 years after open abdomen treatment with vacuum-assisted wound closure and mesh-mediated fascial traction (VAWCM). Methods: Five-year follow-up of patients included in a prospective study 2006–2009. The protocol included physical examination, patient interview, chart review, questionnaire

The role of national law and policy in addressing displacement in the context of disasters and climate change in Asia and the Pacific Matthew Scott Introduction This chapter introduces the analytical framework for the research initiative as a whole. Each of the case studies in the volume adopts a human rights-based approach to the study of law, policy and practice relating to displacement in the c

Three Approaches to Finitude in Belief Change Sven Ove Hansson (soh@kth.se) Royal Institute of Technology, Stockholm, Sweden Abstract. Since neither a human mind nor a computer can deal directly with infinite structures, well-behaved models of belief change should operate exclusively on belief states that have a finite representation. Three ways to achieve this without resorting to a finite langua

Serpentinite-hosted ecosystems are potential sites where life may first have evolved on Earth. Serpentinization reactions produce strongly reducing and highly alkaline fluids that are typified by high concentrations of molecular hydrogen (H2) and methane (CH4), which can be used as an energy source by chemosynthetic life. Low-temperature serpentinization at slow-spreading mid-ocean ridges provides

Lateralization is a fundamental property of the human brain that affects perceptual, motor, and cognitive processes. It is now acknowledged that left-right laterality is widespread across vertebrates and even some invertebrates such as fruit flies and bees. Honeybees, which learn to associate an odorant (the conditioned stimulus, CS) with sucrose solution (the unconditioned stimulus, US), recall t

Mervärdesskatt och Transfer Pricing är två av de stora områdena inom internationell skatterätt, då det förra är en indirekt skatt och baseras på det subjektiva priset och det senare området tillhör direkt beskattning och använder ett objektivt, fiktivt pris för beräkning kan de vid första anblick sakna anknytning. Det finns dock en risk att justeringar av det pris som använts för Transfer Pricing-Value added tax and Transfer Pricing are two of the major areas of international tax law, as the former one uses a subjective price for the calculation of taxation and the latter one uses an objective price the two regimes seemingly lack interaction. There is however a possibility that an adjustment of the price used for Transfer Pricing purposes might have an effect on the VAT due. VAT is a har

Objectives: Breast-fed (BF) have lower risk of infections during infancy compared to those formula-fed (FF). A higher content of alpha-lactalbumin (α-lac) in breast milk, which may promote a more favorable gut microbiota, could be one reason. In this study, we evaluated whether increased concentration of α-lac in low-protein infant formula affects the immune response and the incidence of infection

Syftet med detta arbete är att undersöka om rullande bärighetsmätningar RWD är ett alternativ till fallviktsmätningar FWD i arbetet kring vägbärighet i vägprojekt. Bärighet beskrivs av Trafikverket som ” Den högsta last, enstaka eller ackumulerad, som kan accepteras med hänsyn till uppkomst av sprickor eller deformationer”. Det vill säga hur tunga fordon en väg eller en bro kan belastas med sThe purpose of this project is to investigate if RWD is an alternative to FWD in analysing road bearing capacity in road projects. According to the Swedish Transport Administration (Trafikverket), the definition of bearing capacity is described as “the maximum load whether single or cumulative, that can be accepted without causing cracking or deformation”. In other words, it refers to how muc

Den 1 juli 2018 ändrades våldtäktsbrottet i Sverige, så att det inte längre krävdes att den tilltalade använt våld, hot eller utnyttjande för att få målsä-gande att delta i samlaget. I stället drogs gränsen för våldtäkt vid att delta-gandet inte varit frivilligt. Frivillighet är i detta sammanhang inte samma sak som målsägandens vilja. I stället handlar det om hur offret har visat den tilltalade vOn the 1st of July 2018, the Swedish rape law changed. To be classified as rape, it was no longer necessary that the sex was the result of violence, threat or abuse by the perpetrator. Instead, it was considered rape if a per-son performed a sexual act on someone who did not engage voluntarily. It is, however, important to note, that engaging voluntarily, does not mean the same as wanting to have

Objective: To investigate whether baseline use of pain medication is associated with program adherence during a three-month digital treatment program for individuals with hip or knee osteoarthritis (OA). Design: An observational cohort study using registry data on weekly participant adherence from 33078 participants enrolled in a digital education and exercise therapy program. Poor adherence was d

Background: Evidence on the association between systemic glucocorticoid use and colorectal cancer (CRC) risk is limited. This study aimed to determine whether systemic glucocorticoid use is associated with an increased risk of overall CRC (diagnosed at any age) and early-onset CRC (EOCRC; diagnosed before 50 years of age). Methods: A nationwide cohort study (follow-up: 2005–2018) was conducted usi

Background: Win statistics offer an alternative approach to clinical trials that use survival analysis to analyze composite endpoints. Our objective was to re-analyze data from previously published registry-based randomized controlled trials that produced hazard ratios using win statistics to evaluate the correspondence between them. Good correspondence was defined as both results being positive,

Intracellular Ca2+ was determined with the fura-2 technique during electrically induced contractions in the rabbit rectococcygeus smooth muscle at 22 degreesC. The muscles were electrically activated to give short, reproducible contractions. Intracellular [Ca2+] increased during activation; the increase in [Ca2+] preceded force development by approximately 2 s. After cessation of stimulation Ca2+
