The practices of doctoral education are intricately entangled with technologies. This methodological paper examines the practical concerns involved in doing the analytic work in a networked learning setting with Actor-Network theory (ANT). It is a story about engaging with ANT as a companion in an ethnographic research project on teaching practices in Sweden during the Covid-19 pandemic. The empir
In this study of human carotid endarterectomy plaques (using 1128 regions of interest in a total of 10 plaques), we found that photon counting computed tomography (PCCT) can differentiate between attenuation and the spectral patterns of calcium, intra-plaque haemorrhage, thrombus, fibrosis, necrosis and lipid core. This is the first study to show the potential of PCCT in living patients using clin
Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), targeting checkpoint receptors such as programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1), are associated with increased risk of cardiovascular events, but the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. Here we show that PD-1 + T cells from murine atherosclerotic aortas mainly display a progenitor exhausted phenotype (PD-1 intSlamf6 +Tim3 -), produce IFNγ in vivo, exh
AIMS: Although age-related immune deterioration has been implicated as a mechanistic contributor to cardiovascular disease (CVD), evidence for an impairment of adaptive immune function in individuals with clinically verified presence of atherosclerosis is lacking.METHODS AND RESULTS: To test the association between atherosclerosis and immune function, we evaluated SARS-CoV-2 vaccine responsiveness
Sensory traits shape animal lifestyles due to the central role they play in retrieving and processing environmental information. However, being some of the most energetically expensive tissues to build and maintain, ecological demands often modulate investment in these organs. Evidence that ecology shapes the evolution of sensory traits is plenty but is heavily biased towards vertebrates and has o
Carbon sequestration in arable soils is gaining increasing attention in global policymaking initiatives for climate-change mitigation. Large-scale assessments of soil organic carbon development in arable land are affected by the scarcity of reliable time series of soil organic carbon monitoring data and often fail to replicate observed trends or appreciate any effects induced by changes in soil ma
Identifying key molecular pathways and genes involved in the response to urban pollutants is an important step in furthering our understanding of the impact of urbanisation on wildlife. The expansion of urban habitats and the associated human-introduced environmental changes are considered a global threat to the health and persistence of humans and wildlife. The present study experimentally invest
The important role of fire in regulating vegetation community composition and contributions to emissions of greenhouse gases and aerosols make it a critical component of dynamic global vegetation models and Earth system models. Over two decades of development, a wide variety of model structures and mechanisms have been designed and incorporated into global fire models, which have been linked to di
Aim: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) regulate β-cell function, and β-cell mitochondria and insulin secretion are perturbed in diabetes. We aimed to identify key miRNAs regulating β-cell mitochondrial metabolism and novel β-cell miRNA-mitochondrial pathways. Methods: TargetScan (http://www.targetscan.org/) was used to predict if 16 miRNAs implicated in β-cell function target 27 cis-eGenes implicated in mitochon
OBJECTIVE-The incretin hormone GIP (glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide) promotes pancreatic beta-cell function by potentiating insulin secretion and beta-cell proliferation. Recently, a combined analysis of several genome-wide association studies (Meta-analysis of Glucose and Insulin-Related Traits Consortium [MAGIC]) showed association to postprandial insulin at the GIP receptor (GIPR)
Abstract in Norwegian Bakgrunn. Fallulykker er et viktig helseproblem hos eldre. Både balansetesting og registrering av egenrapportert funksjon kan være måter å forutse fremtidige ulykker på. Materiale og metode. I en kohortstudie ble egenrapportert gangfunksjon kartlagt hos 307 tilfeldig utvalgte hjemmeboende kvinner 75 år og eldre. Kvinnene gjennomgikk også testing av balanse og gangfunksjon, oBACKGROUND: Falls represent an important health problem among the elderly. Balance testing as well as registration of self-reported balance problems may be appropriate in order to predict the risk of future falls. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Self-reported walking was assessed in 307 randomly selected women 75 years or older living at home. The women underwent testing of gait and balance and were follow
Popular Abstract in Swedish Olyckor i järnvägssektorn kan ge upphov till katastrofala konsekvenser. I första hand kan människors liv och hälsa drabbas, men allvarliga konsekvenser kan även uppstå för samhället i stort. Detta beror på att järnvägssystemet, liksom en rad andra infrastruktursystem är väsentliga för att vårt moderna samhälle ska fungera. Under de senaste decennierna har dessa system bIn recent decades, the Swedish railway system has faced substantial deregulations. As a result, management of risk is often carried out in settings involving multiple stakeholders having various roles, mandates, and viewpoints on risk, and where no single stakeholder has the superior authority. In order to manage risks in this type of multi-actor setting, the traditional elements of risk assessmen

This suggests underlying protective mechanisms. Initiated in September 2022, this exploratory study aims to uncover and define these mechanisms, potentially leading to nove

This essay explores the possible influence from WTO law into Community law in the area of State aid. In order to do so one needs to examine questions relating to material law as well as EC enforcement and procedure. Special attention is paid to State aid as regulated in Article 87.1 ECT. When an EC Member State thinks that another Member State is violating Article 87 ECT by administering illegal a
Popular Abstract in Swedish Prioriteringar av olika slag har alltid genomförts inom hälso- och sjukvård, vilket har inneburit att vissa verksamheter och patienter har prioriterats och andra har valts bort. Tidigare studier som har varit fokuserade på allmänhetens syn på vem eller vilka som ska prioriteras, har framförallt varit riktade till yngre och medelålders personer. I dessa studier framkommeThe aim of this thesis was to investigate older people's views and experience of prioritisation and resource allocation in health care, which is important because older people are the group that use public health care and service most. The aim was also to investigate differences in the view of prioritisation and resource allocation in relation to age, gender, housing, health-related quality of lif
This thesis examines how entrepreneurs organise flexible working practices in self-structured environments and how these shape their perceived work-life balance. Unlike research focused on employees in traditional settings, this study explores entrepreneurs operating with high autonomy and little external structure. Drawing on Self-Determination Theory, Boundary Theory, and Spillover Theory, it in
