There is a long tradition in using genetically based color polymorphisms in natural populations to study evolutionary processes. Despite growing evidence for continuous phenotypic variation within discrete morphs, we still know little about how this shapes selective dynamics. Here, using 43 years of plumage color data from a Finnish tawny owl population (Strix aluco), we show that gray and brown m
This dissertation examines the construction of monumental synagogues in nineteenth-century Sweden as a means through which Jewish communities articulated public presence, negotiated belonging, and translated aspirations for civic inclusion into durable architectural form. Focusing on five purpose-built synagogues in Gothenburg (1855), Norrköping (1858), Stockholm (1870), Karlstad (1899), and Malmö
Introduction: To address communication barriers, minimise social isolation, prevent psychosocial illness and increase the independence of Deaf older adults, a mobile care team consisting of Deaf assistant nurses using sign language was initiated and developed by a nongovernmental organisation in a region in southern Sweden. Aim: To describe Deaf older adults’ experiences receiving support from an
Aims The prevalence of adults with congenital heart disease (ACHD) is rising due to improved paediatric care. In parallel, updated data on prognosis in adult life are needed. Objectives The aim was to calculate the standardized mortality ratio (SMR) and death rates in ACHD compared to the general population. Methods and results Data were obtained from the national register of congenital heart dise
Background: Escalating resistance among Gram-negative pathogens limits β-lactam options. Cefepime/enmetazobactam combines a fourth-generation cephalosporin with a class A β-lactamase inhibitor. We evaluated its activity against multidrug, extensive and pandrug-resistant war-wound isolates from Ukraine.Materials and methods: We tested 215 clinical samples (2022-2023) isolated from wounded patients
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is marked by the abnormal aggregation of amyloid-beta peptides within the central nervous system. The formation of amyloid fibrils from amyloid-beta peptides is a hallmark of AD Here, we demonstrate that the aggregation of amyloid-beta 42 spreads both spatially and temporally. By measuring the spatial propagation of amyloid-beta in macroscopic capillaries and performing Mo
Oily wastewater presents a serious environmental challenge, demanding sustainable and regenerative membrane technologies. Here, we report a green and scalable method for fabricating skin-replaceable cellulose membranes (SRC-M) from jute agro-waste, using a NaOH/urea activation route and argon-pressurized deposition onto ceramic supports. The resulting Cellulose II-based asymmetric membranes exhibi
För otränade öron och ögon är det inte lätt att se vad operasång och attofysik har med varandra att göra. I det här bidraget visar dock Johan Mauritsson och Hedvig Jalhed att det finns påtagliga paralleller. Artikeln är en frukt av ett populärvetenskapligt projekt där artikelförfattarna använder just dessa beröringspunkter för att sprida såväl visdom som skönhet för både öron och ögon.
Aims: Pain and poor health-related quality of life measures serve as the primary indication for primary elective total hip arthroplasty (THA). It remains challenging to predict whether THA delivers the patient-anticipated improvements. Our study aimed to develop and validate statistical and machine learning prediction models of one-year clinical improvement in patient-reported outcome measures (PR
Aims Endotypes integrate individual clinical and molecular data and can be used to formulate molecular subclassifications of diseases. We previously derived four endotypes of subclinical carotid atherosclerosis in a large European cohort, c-IMT and c-IMT Progression as Predictors of Vascular Events in a High-Risk European Population (IMPROVE), identifying individuals with a specific cardiovascular
Transcription factor (TF) proteins regulate gene activity by binding to regulatory regions, most importantly at gene promoters. Many genes have alternative promoters (APs) bound by distinct TFs. The role of differential TF activity at APs during tumour development is poorly understood. Here we show, using deep RNA sequencing in 274 biopsies of benign prostate tissue, localized prostate tumours and
Abstrasct Entrepreneurial ecosystems as lenses promoting innovation and entrepreneurship have attracted substantial interest in research. However attention towards the role of sector-specific actors, such as healthcare-related organizations, within entrepreneurial ecosystems remains underexplored. This paper investigates how healthcare-related organizations are conceptualized within entrepreneuria
The impact of variations in the three-dimensional structure of the genome has been recognized, but solid cancer tissue studies are limited. Here, we performed integrated deep Hi-C sequencing with matched whole-genome sequencing, whole-genome bisulfite sequencing, 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) sequencing and RNA sequencing across a cohort of 80 biopsy samples from patients with metastatic castrati
In primary Sjögren's disease (pSjD), there is a well-documented increased risk of hematological malignancies, particularly lymphomas, whereas studies examining the incidence of solid tumors have often yielded conflicting results. Data concerning the incidence of breast and gynecological cancers are similarly inconsistent. The aim of this study was to further investigate the incidence of these so-c
