Our study aims to investigate the relationships of the major lineages within the moth family Geometridae, with a focus on the poorly studied Oenochrominae- Desmobathrinae complex, and to translate some of the results into a coherent subfamilial and tribal level classification for the family. We analyzed a molecular dataset of 1,206 Geometroidea terminal taxa from all biogeographical regions compri

Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) affects 6–10% of adults and often remains undiagnosed until advanced stages, leading to inadequate management. This study compared diagnosed, proxy-diagnosed, and undiagnosed CKD patients regarding prevalence, clinical assessment, nephroprotective treatment, healthcare utilization, and mortality. Methods: This retrospective observational study analyzed Regi

Begreppet psykisk misshandel kan vid första anblick tyckas svår att greppa. En ojämn maktrelation kan förstås som kärnan av begreppet och för barnrätten blir därför relationen mellan barn och förälder central. Idag finns begreppet i 2 § LVU och kan leda till tvångsvård, under förutsättning att barnets hälsa eller utveckling påtagligt riskerar att skadas. Arbetets syfte har varit att närma sig begThe term psychological abuse may intuitively seem difficult to grasp. An uneven power dynamic can be described as the core of the term and relating to children’s rights it centers around the relation between a child and their parent. Today, the term is found in the second paragraph of the Care of Young Persons Act and can lead to compulsory care, if there is a significant risk to the child’s healt

Stickler syndrome is a collection of hereditary conditions that impact connective tissue, mainly collagen, and can cause a variety of symptoms, such as joint and bone abnormalities, hearing loss, and visual impairments. Previous studies suggest that mutations in the collagen-encoding genes are a primary cause of SS. These mutations can be inherited from parents to offspring and may vary significan

Nature-based tourism in the fragile Arctic environments is emerging as a major environmental concern, mainly due to extreme seasonality in these locations, the lack of suitable infrastructures and planning, and its interference with fragile ecosystems. In Iceland tourism has increased exponentially during the past decades, causing more environmental impacts on the country's natural recourses. Hiki

Background: Persons with clinical onset of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) before 65 years of age are diagnosed with early-onset AD (EOAD). The prevalence of EOAD is low, but varies among studies from 6% to 16%. Most individuals with EOAD are still working, have an active social life, and might have children living at home. Therefore, the consequences of being diagnosed early with a disease that implies

The human brain can be described as a complex network of functional connections between distinct regions, referred to as the brain functional network. Recent studies show that the functional network is a dynamic process and its community structure evolves with time during continuous task performance. Consequently, it is important for the understanding of the human brain to develop dynamic communit

Background: Over the past decade, several PET tracers were developed to visualise and quantify tau pathology in vivo. However, all these tracers have distinct off-target binding, different dynamic ranges and likely different levels of non-specific binding resulting in large variability in semiquantification. We propose to standardise the sampling and the quantification across all available tau tra

Most stomatopod crustaceans have complex retinas in their compound eyes, with up to 16 spectral types of photoreceptors, but members of the superfamily Squilloidea have much simpler retinas, thought to contain a single photoreceptor spectral class. In the Atlantic stomatopod Squilla empusa, microspectrophotometry shows that all photoreceptors absorb light maximally at 517 nm, indicating that a sin

Executive functions (EF) denote the host of top-down mental processes that mediate self-regulation to achieve a goal. Among other things, EF support cognitive flexibility by allowing inhibition of automatic responses in favour of obtaining future goals. Corvids, the bird group that is comprised of ravens, crows and jays, are distinguished by their cognitive flexibility. This thesis investigates tw

This article aims to highlight how literary value is constructed today: how it is created and negotiated. It seeks to develop a perspective that considers the manifold and complex value­negotiation process. In accordance with Barbara Herrnstein Smith, the article argues that literary value is generated by a constant and continuous series of negotiations between production and sale: the institution

It is well known how important belonging and to be part of something is for us humans and our well-being. Other utterly important foundations for us and our sense of freedom are safety and accessibility. LGBT-research has profoundly been conducted on larger cities, but lacking substratum on how mentioned factors affect people living in smaller cities. In this paper, I try through interviews unders

Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified more than 50,000 SNP-trait associations. Most of these SNPs or genetic variants map to noncoding regions, known as or gene desserts. This makes it challenging to describe the mechanism by which the variant confers susceptibility to the trait. Increasingly, there is an interest in characterization and interpretation of the effect of non-coding

This research aims to understand the frames used by conspiracy theorists by establishing a new pathway in media framing, or in other words a media framing micro-theory, called conspiratorial framing​. The aims are accomplished through a critical analysis of the case of Alex Jones, a conspiracy theorist, and InfoWars, the media channel through which Jones operates. Through frame analysis, accomplis

Sverige har haft stora framgångar inom skidåkningen där längdlandslaget har tagit många medaljer i olika mästerskap. Det finns ett stort intresse för skidåkning inte bara på elitnivå utan även bland vanliga motionärer. Ett sådant intresse skapar efterfrågan och behov av anläggningar och områden som möjliggör utövande. Skidåkning kan utövas på mer än ett sätt med varierande påverkan på det områdeIn Sweden skiing has been very popular for a long time. Due to the popularity there is a need for land to practice the sport. Cross- country skiing is one kind of skiing that is popular. If you want to go on a skiing tour you can either chose to make your own tracks or use tracks made by machines. When you make your own tracks the imprint that is left in nature is small. Tracks made by machines

The genetic underpinnings of ecological adaptations, such as host-plant use in herbivorous insects, is a vital area of research in evolutionary biology because they reveal how phenotypic variation arises and the extent to which this can happen through parallel mechanisms. This study provides unique insights into the genomic basis and gene expression changes in Tephritis conura's adaptation to
