Among the polities in the Eastern European inter-imperial peripheries, Romania has witnessed a particular electoral effervescence in 2024/2025, with ripple effects across the region, and making the headlines across the world: the EU parliamentary elections organized concomitantly with local elections (in June 2024); the national legislative elections (in early December); and the presidential elect
This article focuses on the proportionality analysis carried out by international investment tribunals when the protection of foreign investment adversely impacts the protection of human rights. International investment arbitrators are increasingly called to adjudicate awards which require a 'balancing' between the so-called rights of investors, protected as they are by relevant international inve
Background Lack of conceptual clarity and measurement methods have led to underdeveloped efforts to measure experience of participation in care by next of kin to older people in nursing homes. Objective We sought to assess the measurement properties of items aimed at operationalizing participation in care by next of kin, applied in nursing homes. Methods A total of 37 items operationalizing partic
The substantial role of food sharing in human evolution has been widely recognized, and food-soliciting tactics may have been critical in facilitating these transfers. Great apes, our closest living relatives, also use different food-soliciting tactics to obtain food from both kin and non-kin. However, the individual and social factors involved in requests for and subsequent transfers of food have
The activity-regulated cytoskeleton-associated (Arc) protein is essential for synaptic plasticity and memory formation. The Arc gene, which contains remnants of a structural GAG retrotransposon sequence, produces a protein that self-assembles into capsid-like structures harboring Arc mRNA. Arc capsids, released from neurons, have been proposed as a novel intercellular mechanism for mRNA transmissi
Background: Orthostatic hypotension (OH) has been associated with elevated risk of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) and dementia risk. To better understand the OH-dementia association, we assessed the associations of OH with CVD and subsequent dementia in older adults and considered the temporality of CVD and dementia onset. Methods: This 15-year population-based cohort study included, at baseline,
Background/Aims Self-rated health before, during and after pregnancy is important for women s quality of life and promotes bonding between mother and child. However, diverse aspects of care models influence women s experiences during pregnancy. This study aimed to investigate low?risk women s self-rated health during the perinatal period in relation to different models of care in Sweden. Methods A
Background. National as well as international Parkinson's disease (PD) treatment guidelines are available to guide clinicians. Previous research has shown that nonmotor symptoms (NMS) are pronounced in late-stage PD and has suggested that current treatment is insufficient and could be improved. Objectives. The aim of this study was to investigate to which degree the national and international trea
Perivascular macrophages (PVMs) are a specialized subset of macrophages situated near blood vessels in the brain. Their strategic positioning around these vessels enables them to perform key functions in immune surveillance and response to inflammation and injury. These cells are crucial for modulating the immune response within the brain, contributing to normal central nervous system (CNS) proces
Understanding vegetation sensitivity to hydroclimate factors, especially how carbon and water cycles respond to climate change, is crucial for assessing ecosystem vulnerability. However, the seasonal sensitivity of carbon and water fluxes to temperature, radiation, soil water content, and vapor pressure deficit across diverse biomes and climates remains unclear. Here, we use 196 eddy covariance ob
Corpus linguistic studies have shown that lexicon varies according to linguistic register, and cognitive studies have demonstrated that lexical aspects play a significant role in determining the veracity of people’s accounts. Both lines of research underpin the present study, where the aim is to explore how overall lexical properties (lexical density and lexical diversity, and noun, verb, and adje
Biogenic ice-nucleating particles (INPs) can significantly impact mixed-phase clouds by enhancing precipitation and reducing albedo. As Arctic sea ice diminishes, the exposure of open ocean may increase aerosolization rates of marine bioaerosols and INPs. We investigated INP concentrations and microbial communities in ambient marine air, sea bulk water (SBW), and sea surface microlayer (SML) along
In both second language acquisition research and teaching, there is a need for practical, reliable and valid proficiency tests to be used with learners of various target languages and at different proficiency levels. In the present study, a written proficiency test based on the C-test methodology was developed and tested on 144 Swedish 15-year-olds studying French, German, and Spanish in lower sec
Improving accuracy and timeliness for osteoporosis diagnosis could help prevent fragility fractures, morbidity, and mortality for older individuals. Osteoporosis is an often silent health condition, especially as regards vertebral fractures, and WHO issued a call to action for primary care to lead efforts in screening, assessing, and managing diseases such as osteoporosis. We used a machine learni
A reliable serological marker of acute cellular rejection (ACR) after small bowel transplantation (SBTx) is still missing. Plasma citrulline level (PCL) reflects the functional integrity of intestinal mucosa which is partially lost during ACR. The aim of our study was to investigate the role of PCL as marker of ACR after SBTx. Eighteen German landrace pigs were used and divided into three groups.

Popular Abstract in Swedish Syftet med avhandlingen är att kritiskt undersöka hur högt fettintag hänger samman med övriga kostvanor, livsstilsvanor och socioekonomisk status och om högt fettintag påverkar risken att insjukna i postmenopausal bröstcancer. Intag av fett och sambandet med hälsa är ett kontroversiellt område. Trots att det länge funnits officiella rekommendationer om hur mycket fett The aim was to explore the inherent meaning of total fat and to examine the associations between relative fat intake and postmenopausal breast cancer. Furthermore, the impacts of the alterations in dietary assessment routines are discussed. This thesis uses data from the Malmö Diet and Cancer study, a prospective cohort study. Information on dietary habits, lifestyle, and socioeconomic factors wa
