The ability to measure flying insect activity and abundance is important for ecologists, conservationists and agronomists alike. However, existing methods are laborious and produce data with low temporal resolution (e.g. trapping and direct observation), or are expensive, technically complex, and require vehicle access to field sites (e.g. radar and lidar entomology). We propose a method called “C
Males and females often exhibit different behaviours during mate acquisition, pair-bonding and parenting, and a convenient label to characterize these behaviours is sex role. The diverse roles that male and female shorebirds (plovers, sandpipers and allies) exhibit in mating and parenting have played a key role in advancing mainstream theories in avian ecology and behavioural biology including sex
Neurodegenerative diseases are the most common cause of dementia. Although their underlying molecular pathologies have been identified, there is substantial heterogeneity in the patterns of progressive brain alterations across and within these diseases. Recent advances in neuroimaging methods have revealed that pathological proteins accumulate along specific macroscale brain networks, implicating
We study two-dimensional periodic capillary-gravity water waves propagating at the free surface of water in a flow with arbitrary, prescribed vorticity over a flat bed. Using conformal mappings and a new reformulation of Bernoulli's equation, the problem is equivalently cast into the form "identity plus compact", which is amenable to Rabinowitz's global bifurcation theorem, while no restrictions o
Background: TDP-43 proteinopathies represent a spectrum of neurological disorders, anchored clinically on either end by amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal degeneration (FTD). The ALS–FTD spectrum exhibits a diverse range of clinical presentations with overlapping phenotypes, highlighting its heterogeneity. This study was aimed to use disease progression modeling to identify nov
AlphaFold can predict the structures of monomeric and multimeric proteins with high accuracy but has a limit on the number of chains and residues it can fold. Here we show that a combination of AlphaFold and all-atom symmetric docking simulations enables highly accurate prediction of the structure of complex symmetrical assemblies. We present a method to predict the structure of complexes with cub
Background and aims: Previous study showed that elevated circulating hepatokine follistatin (FST) associates with an increased risk of type 2 diabetes by inducing adipose tissue insulin resistance. Here we explore further the relationships between plasma FST levels with mortality and health outcomes. Methods and results: The population-based Malmö Diet Cancer cardiovascular cohort (n = 4733, age 4
Microalgal biomass may have biostimulating effects on plants and seeds due to its phytohormonal content, and harnessing this biostimulating effect could contribute to sustainable agriculture. Two Nordic strains of freshwater microalgae species Chlorella vulgaris and Scenedesmus obliquus were each cultivated in a photobioreactor receiving untreated municipal wastewater. The algal biomass and the su
Objective Beta-blockers (BB) are an established treatment following myocardial infarction (MI). However, there is uncertainty as to whether BB beyond the first year of MI have a role in patients without heart failure or left ventricular systolic dysfunction (LVSD). Methods A nationwide cohort study was conducted including 43 618 patients with MI between 2005 and 2016 in the Swedish register for co

Abstract in FrenchLa question qui m’occupe dans cet article est de savoir si une synagogue du premier siècle, comprise à la fois comme une structure construite à cet effet et une institution formelle d’assemblée, se trouvait autrefois à Capharnaüm sous le site de la dernière synagogue en calcaire. J’évalue la question à frais nouveaux en apportant une réflexion méthodologique dans la perspective dThe question with which I am centrally concerned in this article is whether a first-century synagogue, understood as both a purpose-built structure and a formal institution of assembly, once stood in Capernaum beneath the site of its later limestone synagogue. I assess the question anew by providing methodological reflection from the perspective of Collingwoodian critical historiography. In sectio
Denna avhandling fokuserar på svensk extraktivism i Sápmi/Norrbotten genom att studera den planerade järnmalmsgruvan i Gállok/Kallak och den gröna omställningen inom stålproduktionen. Huvudsyftet är att förstå tilltron till resursutvinning som ett sätt att nå en lycklig, grön, och god framtid. Med utgångspunkt i psykoanalys läser jag resursutvinning som ett begärsobjekt som människor söker sig tilThis dissertation deals with Swedish extractivism in Sápmi through the examples of a planned iron ore mine in Gállok/Kallak and the hydrogen-based steel transition. The main aim is to understand the trust that is placed in extraction as a means to arrive at a happy, prosperous, green future. Drawing on Lacanian psychoanalysis and Sara Ahmed’s notion of the promise of happiness, I suggest that extr
Resulting from the general availability of first-row transition metals, compared to their second- and third-row counterparts, photosensitizers (PSs) based on metals like iron have gained interest as candidates to enable photochemistry from solar energy, a largely underutilized energy source. Iron complexes equivalent to other metal complexes, currently being used as PS, do lack some of the advanta
This article explores how the right to respect one’s home under Article 8 of the European Convention on Human Rights would apply in the context of housing and social control. After explaining the connections between social control, housing, and human rights, it analyzes the selected case law of the European Court of Human Rights on Article 8 in certain cases concerning housing with a view to under
This paper discusses Scandinavian gold foil igures from the early part ofthe Scandinavian Late Iron Age (AD 550-1050) as well as miniature portrait pendants of the eighteenth century. he paper examines the possibility of comparing the two categories of objects, and what may be gained by contrasting historic and prehistoric images. he comparison is made through using Mitchell’s concept meta-picture
This article explores and compares two similar debates in Germany and Sweden duringthe 1980s, in which feminists blamed the Hebrew Bible, or ‘Old Testament’, for being the origin ofthe patriarchy. In Germany, the psychologist and pedagogue Gerda Weiler articulated the discoursein several writings, which led to a scholarly debate on anti-Jewish tendencies within Christian femi-nist theology. In Swe
Introduction: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common arrhythmia, associated with significant burdens to patients and the healthcare system. The atrioventricular (AV) node plays a vital role in regulating heart rate during AF by filtering electrical impulses from the atria. However, it is often insufficient in regards to maintaining a healthy heart rate, thus the AV node properties are modifie
Neurodegenerative disorders (NDDs) such as Huntington's disease (HD) and the spectrum of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD) are characterized by progressive loss of selectively vulnerable populations of neurons. Although often associated with motor impairments, these NDDs share several commonalities in early symptoms and signs that extend beyond motor dysfunction
Here, we aimed to develop and validate a fully automated artificial intelligence (AI)-based method for the detection and quantification of suspected prostate tumour/local recurrence, lymph node metastases, and bone metastases from [18F]PSMA-1007 positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-CT) images. Images from 660 patients were included. Segmentations by one expert reader were ground t
The multi-zone modelling concept could be a good alternative to two-zone modelling and CFD modelling for some situations when performing fire safety designs. However, few such models exist, and the evaluation of the concept is scarce. This paper is dedicated to study the multi-zone modelling concept and its usefulness in fire safety engineering by benchmarking it against experimental data and simu
