Because of a low prevalence of severe carotid stenosis in the general population, screening for presence of asymptomatic carotid artery stenosis (ACAS) is not warranted. Possibly, for certain subgroups, screening is worthwhile. The present study aims to develop prediction rules for the presence of ACAS (>50% and >70%).
Popular Abstract in English Proteins are a class of biological macromolecules that perform countless fundamental and diverse functions in living organisms. Chemically speaking, they are polymers built out of monomeric units called amino acids. All biological proteins are constructed out of 20 different amino-acid types. To form protein molecules, amino acids are linked together in a linear chain lThe minimum free energy state of a protein (the native state) is encoded by its amino-acid sequence. Due to the many torsional degrees of freedom (DOF) available to a polypeptide chain, a vast number of conformations is possible. Therefore, to predict the native state of a protein directly from sequence, a computer algorithm must evaluate a large number of possible conformations using accurate sco
Plants sense and integrate a variety of signals from the environment through different interacting signal transduction pathways that involve hormones and signaling molecules. Using ALTERNATIVE OXIDASE1a (AOX1a) gene expression as a model system of retrograde or stress signaling between mitochondria and the nucleus, MYB DOMAIN PROTEIN29 (MYB29) was identified as a negative regulator (regulator of a
There is scientific consensus that limiting warming in line with the Paris Agreement goals requires reaching net zero CO2 emissions by mid-century and net negative emissions thereafter. Because of the entrenchment of current fossil fuel energy and feedstock demand estimated in almost all global modelled scenarios, 'abated' fossil fuel and industrial process and product use (IPPU) CO2 emissions, us
Sedan den ”nya köplagen” infördes 1990 har många höjt ett varningens finger för att dess nya ansvarsgrund vid skadeståndsansvar, kontrollansvaret, kommer att innebära svårigheter vid tillämpning avseende felsituationer. Till följd av att köplagens utformning inspirerats av den horisontella lagstiftningstekniken i CISG, samordnades nämligen säljarens skadeståndsansvar för dröjsmål och fel i den nyaSince the “new Sale of Goods Act” passed in 1990, many have noted that its new basis of liability, the control liability (sw. kontrollansvaret), will entail complications when applied to defective performance. The formulation of the Sale of Goods act was inspired by the “horizontal” structure characteristic of CISG. Therefore, the Sale of Goods Act’s provisions on remedies for the seller’s breach
The alarming rates of extinction and degrading ecosystems call for new means of understanding and accounting for how people depend on nature. Ecosystem services (ES) is a contested but widely applied concept aiming to connect ecosystem functions to human wellbeing and to assess and account for how nature matters in decision-making. More diverse frameworks and ideas of value intended for assessment
Background: Niemann-Pick type C (NP-C) is a rare autosomal recessive progressive neurodegenerative disorder caused by mutations in the NP-C 1 or 2 gene. Besides visceral symptoms, presentation in adolescent and adult onset variants is often with neurological symptoms. The most frequently reported presenting symptoms of NP-C in adulthood are psychiatric symptoms (38 %), cognitive decline (23 %) and
Background: Ramsay Hunt syndrome (progressive myoclonus ataxia) is a descriptive diagnosis characterized by myoclonus, ataxia, and infrequent seizures. Often the etiology cannot be determined. Recently, a mutation in the GOSR2 gene (c.430G>T, p.Gly144Trp) was reported in 6 patients with childhood-onset progressive ataxia and myoclonus. Methods: We evaluated 5 patients with cortical myoclonus, atax
Background: The purpose of this project was to develop a telemedicine platform that supports home site monitoring and integrates biochemical, physiological, and dietary parameters for individual patients with hepatic glycogen storage disease (GSD). Methods and results: The GSD communication platform (GCP) was designed with input from software developers, GSD patients, researchers, and healthcare p
Languages borrow words when there is a need for it, all languages contain loanwords, and no part of the lexicon is entirely “loan-proof”. These are statements about lexical borrowing that are typically found in linguistic textbooks (Hock and Joseph 1996). Further, we know that that there are large discrepancies in the borrowability of different lexical concepts, where core vocabulary domains (sens
Mild reductive catalytic depolymerization (MRCD) of lignin offers a sustainable route to produce functionalized aromatic compounds. However, the economic viability is hindered by the need for expensive palladium (Pd) catalysts and the limited exploration of continuous flow reactors (CFRs), which are essential to achieve an adequate production scale. This study examines the impact of partial replac
To address environmental and climate issues, alternative technologies to fossil resources are sought after, both for the production of fuels and of chemicals. Algae appear as an attractive solution and have applications in the food, feed, energy or chemistry at large. A study funded by ADEME and conducted by ENEA, a consulting firm for energy and sustainable development for the industrial sector,
Place branding is defined as “the development of brands for geographic locationswith the aim of triggering positive associations about the area and distinguishinga place from other places” (Stevens et al., 2020, p. 752). Like all occupations,place branding is organised by discourses, or talk, that determine best practices andnorms about what constitutes expertise (Loacker and Sullivan, 2016). Expl
Regulatory competition is a competitive process through which the jurisdictionss within a decentralized area develops and adapts to the market demands of that area. EU’s Single market is such decentralized area in the field of company legislation. Any EU citizen may establish a company in any Member State and as a consequence a race between the different national jurisdictions in the EU can emerge
Lojalitetsplikten i kommersiella avtalsförhållanden kan definieras som skyl-digheten för parterna i relationen att tillvarata motpartens intressen utöver sina egna. Lojalitetsplikten kan härledas långt tillbaka i historien men det är först under 1900-talets andra hälft som saker började hända och denna utveckling tog rejäl fart under de senaste ca 20 åren. Lojal samverkan mellan parterna står iblaThe principle of loyalty in commercial relations can be defined as an obliga-tion for the parties to safeguard the other party’s interests in addition to their own. The principle of loyalty can be derived far back in history, but it was only during the second half of the 20th century that things started to happen, and this progress took off in the last 20 or so years. Loyal collaboration be-tween
Varje år färdas tusentals flyktingar och migranter över Medelhavet i hopp om att nå säkerhet och ett bättre liv i Europa. Färderna genomförs ofta på överfulla och sjöodugliga gummibåtar, vilket förödande nog resulterar i att flera människor drunknar varje år. För att skydda dem som färdas till havs har flera kustländer inrättat sjöräddningscentraler som ska ta emot nödsamtal och koordinera räddniEvery year thousands of refugees and migrants take on perilous journeys and cross the Mediterranean, hoping to reach safety and a better life in Europe. These so-called “boat people” often travel on overcrowded and unseaworthy dinghies and regrettably, many lives are lost each year. To protect the lives of those at sea, coastal States have established Rescue Coordination Centres with the purpose
This thesis touches upon the principle of mutual recognition and the conditions for its application on the Framework decision on the European arrest warrant.

This Framework decision was the first third pillar instrument based upon this principle. The Eur
