Although intermarriage is a commonly used indicator of immigrant integration into host societies, most research has focused on how individual characteristics determine intermarriage. This study uses the 1-910 IPUMS census sample to analyze how contextual factors affected intermarriage among European immigrants in the United States. We use newly-available complete-count census mircodata to construc
Introduction: Consensus is lacking regarding the upper limit for a safe contraction frequency during labor. We aimed to assess the association between different contraction frequencies and acidemia at birth, and whether an association was affected by oxytocin augmentation, concomitant cardiotocography (CTG) classification, and stage of labor. Material and Methods: This is a case–control study base
Aging is accompanied by progressive physiological declines in body functions. However, the molecular mechanisms of aging remain poorly understood in decapod crustaceans, a diverse group of invertebrates. We investigated age-related differences in the hemolymph proteomes of marbled crayfish using label-free protein quantification (LC-MS/MS), applying a significance threshold of p < 0.05 and a fold
Accessing high-spin configurations of transition metal phosphides defines a dividing line that prevents common properties of solid-state materials from being replicated within multiple-bonded molecular analogs. Here, we report the synthesis of a VIII phosphaethynolate complex, [(pyrNdipp)2V(PCO)] (2) in a halide metathesis with Na(OCP). Exposure of 2 to Lewis-basic ligands induces a one-electron r
Environmental relative humidity (RH) and temperature (T) are known to be promoters of physicochemical changes in pharmaceutical grade lactose, either in controlled (supervised conditioning), or uncontrolled (during transit and repository storage) scenarios. Comprehensive knowledge of this excipient's material characteristics prior to its use in formulation development is therefore a fundamental re
In the linear regression model, when the dimension p is fixed and n→∞, the asymptotic distribution of the estimation error for Lasso-type M-estimators is well established. In contrast, the convergence of the discrete structures (patterns) induced by these regularizers, such as sparsity or clustering, has remained largely unaddressed, even for the standard Lasso penalty. Because these lower-di
The negative relationship between birth interval length and neonatal mortality risks is well-documented, but the possibility of heterogeneity in this relationship has been largely ignored. Understanding variation in the strength of this relationship may be important for adjusting family planning programs strategies for issues regarding fertility regulation and maternal and child health, however, a
Introduction: Evidence for gut–kidney interactions in early kidney disease is limited, particularly in community-dwelling adults with largely preserved kidney function. Here, we quantified links between gut microbiota and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) in two population-based Swedish cohorts. Methods: Deep shotgun metagenomics profiled fecal samples from 9788 adults in the Swedish CAr
For developing and implementing innovations that improve a firm's environmental performance ('eco-innovation'), external knowledge and technologies, and hence the openness of a firm, are crucial. This paper analyses the factors that drive eco-innovation in firms, drawing special attention to the firm's ability to implement new ways of working within the organisation ('workplace innovation'). Based
Introduction: Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) has been linked to poor health, high stress and diminished quality of life. Previous findings about associations between IBS and cardiovascular disease are, however, contradictory. Our objective was to examine 10-year cardiovascular risk, lifestyle factors, and self-rated health in people with IBS compared to a reference group. Methods: Sweden's souther
We find that CO ligates selectively to nitrogen tetra-coordinated Co(i) single metal atom sites at room temperature in a manganese–cobalt bi-metallic coordination network self-assembled on graphene. The bound state is metastable, determined by pressure-dependent equilibrium conditions between adsorption and desorption, with an upright, end-on bonding geometry (binding energy 0.73 eV). The ligand v
This paper examines income and employment outcomes for immigrants in Sweden’smost immigrant-dense neighbourhoods between 1998 and 2022. While relativeemployment among immigrants has improved, relative incomes in theseneighbourhoods have stagnated or declined. The most plausible explanation for thepersisting income gap and the shrinking employment gap between immigrant-dense and other neighbourhood
Collaborative governance networks are increasingly central to local climate action, yet research offers limited understanding of the personal, psychological, and informal factors that sustain engagement within them. This paper examines how such networks facilitate meaningful and lasting participation through an in-depth study of Malmö Works, a long-standing public–private collaboration focused on
This contribution to the conference on Transitioning away from Fossil Fuels focuses on thematic pillar 3 which addresses the advancement of international cooperation and climate diplomacy. The Fossil Fuel Treaty Initiative represents an opportunity to align climate ambition with human rights and biodiversity stewardship. We consider this stage of the process a crucial waypoint for responding in a
We investigated dynamic changes in nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) metabolism in the human occipital lobe using ultra-high field 31P functional magnetic resonance spectroscopy (fMRS) at 7 T. Twenty-five healthy volunteers (mean age 24 ± 4 years, 10 females) performed a visual task alternating between fixation and flashing checkerboard stimuli. 31P MRS spectra were acquired from a visual c
Esta contribución a la Primera Conferencia Internacional sobre la Transición hacia la no proliferación de Combustibles Fósiles se centra en el pilar temático 3, relativo al avance de la cooperación internacional y la diplomacia climática. La Iniciativa del Tratado de No Proliferación de Combustibles Fósiles (en adelante, Iniciativa FFNPT, por sus siglas en inglés) representa una oportunidad para a
We derive an explicit link between Gaussian Markov random fields on metric graphs and graphical models, and in particular show that a Markov random field restricted to the vertices of the graph is, under mild regularity conditions, a Gaussian graphical model. This graphical model has a distribution which is faithful to its pairwise independence graph, that coincides with the neighbor structure of
