DN DEBATT 15/3. Sedan industrialiseringens början har vi använt omkring fyra femtedelar av den mängd fossilt kol som får förbrännas för att vi ska klara Parisavtalet. Vi har bara en femtedel kvar och det är bråttom att kraftigt reducera utsläppen. Det har Greta Thunberg och de strejkande ungdomarna förstått. Därför stödjer vi deras krav, skriver 270 klimatforskare.
Objectives: The aim was to investigate the association between baseline marital status and mortality using survival (Cox-regression) analysis. Study design: This is a prospective cohort study. Methods: The public health survey by Scania in 2008 was linked to the Swedish cause of death register. This prospective cohort study includes 12,245 men and 14,969 women aged 18–80 years, and 538 men and 362
In this work, we studied influence of post thermal annealing on the performance and charge photogeneration processes of PffBT4T-2OD/PC 71 BM solar cells. As-prepared device exhibits a high-power conversion efficiency of 9.5%, much higher than that after thermal annealing. To understand this phenomenon, we studied charge photogeneration processes in these solar cells by means of time resolved spe
Objective. We evaluated in a proof-of-concept double-blind placebo-controlled randomized trial the efficacy and safety of intra-articular sprifermin (recombinant human fibroblast growth factor 18) in patients with symptomatic knee OA. Methods. Sprifermin was evaluated as intra-articular injection at 10, 30, and 100μg. Primary efficacy endpoint was change in central medial femorotibial compartment
Evidence is provided from studies on natural and artificial biofluids that the sequestration of amorphous calcium phosphate by peptides or proteins to form nanocluster complexes is of general importance in the control of physiological calcification. A naturally occurring mixture of osteopontin peptides was shown, by light and neutron scattering, to form calcium phosphate nanoclusters with a core-s
Evidence from case-control studies, but less so from cohort studies, suggests a positive association between meat intake and risk of lung cancer. Therefore, this association was evaluated in the frame of the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition, EPIC. Data from 478,021 participants, recruited from 10 European countries, who completed a dietary questionnaire in 1992-2000 wer
We derive exact analytical results for the wave functions and energies of harmonically trapped two-component Bose-Einstein condensates with weakly repulsive interactions under rotation. The isospin symmetric wave functions are universal and do not depend on the matrix elements of the two-body interaction. The comparison with the results from numerical diagonalization shows that the ground state an
Prospectively monitor levels of synovial fluid and serum pro-inflammatory cytokines and aggrecan ARGS neoepitope, and urine C-terminal type II (CTX-II) and N-terminal type I (NTX-I) collagen cross-linked telopeptides after acute anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture.
The present study focuses on fragmented deglycosylated pyranose dehydrogenase (fdgPDH) from Agaricus meleagris recombinantly expressed in Pichia pastoris. Fragmented deglycosylated PDH is formed from the deglycosylated enzyme (dgPDH) when it spontaneously loses a C-terminal fragment when stored in a buffer solution at 4 degrees C. The remaining larger fragment has a molecular weight of similar to
Two different methods have been used to fatigue test four bone cements. Each method has been used previously, but the results have not been compared. The ISO 527 based method tests a minimum of 10 samples over a single stress range in tension only and uses Weibull analysis to calculate the median number of cycles to failure and the Weibull modulus. The ASTM F2118 test regime uses fewer specimens a
We investigate the rotational response of both nondipolar and dipolar Bose-Einstein condensates confined in an annular potential via minimization of the energy in the rotating frame. For the nondipolar case we identify certain phases which are associated with different vortex configurations. For the dipolar case, assuming that the dipoles are aligned along some arbitrary and tunable direction, we
Objective: To address the need for standardization of osteoarthritis (OA) phenotypes by examining the effect of heterogeneity among symptomatic (SOA) and radiographic osteoarthritis (ROA) phenotypes. Methods: Descriptions of OA phenotypes of the 28 studies involved in the TREAT-OA consortium were collected. We investigated whether different OA definitions result in different association results by
We determined whether single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) previously associated with diabetogenic traits improve the discriminative power of a type 2 diabetes genetic risk score. Participants (n = 2,751) were genotyped for 73 SNPs previously associated with type 2 diabetes, fasting glucose/insulin concentrations, obesity or lipid levels, from which five genetic risk scores (one for each of the
Research concerning nano-materials (metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), zeolites, mesoporous silicas, etc.) and the nano-scale, including potential barriers for the particulates to diffusion to/from is of increasing importance to the understanding of the catalytic utility of porous materials when combined with any potential super structures (such as hierarchically porous materials). However, it is di
This thesis summarizes the experimental work in which an ultrafastX-ray laser plasma source was combined with variousscalable direct detection schemes to test a novel approach forlab-based time-resolved X-ray absorption spectroscopy. A laserplasma source based on a water jet target was built and commissioned.X-ray and electron emissions of this source were characterizedwith various direct detectio
The use of this material under current use conditions is supported by the existing information. This material was evaluated for genotoxicity, repeated dose toxicity, developmental toxicity, reproductive toxicity, local respiratory toxicity, phototoxicity, skin sensitization potential, as well as, environmental safety. Repeated dose toxicity was determined to have the most conservative systemic exp
