In recent decades, global green finance governance institutions (GGFGIs) have developed diverse frames for understanding climate-related risks. Understanding these risk frames is crucial because they lead to distinctive “de-risking” policies, empowering different types of actors. This paper examines how GGFGIs produce different climate risk frames, and what the prevailing climate risk frame is and

Background: Physical exercise is part of the recommended treatment for individuals with axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA). High-intensity interval training (HIIT) is an effective way to improve cardiovascular health without risk of increased disease activity. Nevertheless, there is a lack of knowledge regarding facilitating factors for digitally-based HIIT among individuals with axSpA. Objective: Th

Background: Antithrombotic treatment might affect bleeding symptoms, identification of bleeding source and treatment for patients with acute gastrointestinal bleeding. This study aims to investigate possible differences in initial bleeding symptoms, identified bleeding site and treatment of patients with or without antithrombotic medication admitted for gastrointestinal bleeding. Methods: All cons

Background: Adequate sleep is crucial for children’s health, especially for children with ADHD and concurrent sleep problems. There is a need for more studies focusing on sleep problems in children with ADHD as these problems may exacerbate ADHD symptoms and vice versa, impacting negatively on everyday life. The aim of this study was to investigate the differences in health-related factors between

Sustainable wildlife management should, amongst others, safeguard human health. This study concerns rural residents’ perceived quality of life and the potential effect of large carnivores (LCs) on psychological health outcomes (life satisfaction, anxiety symptoms, and exhaustion). One group of rural residents that appears to be especially vulnerable when the number and range of LCs increase is she

Background: Polygenic risk scores (PRS) are not yet standard in clinical risk assessments for familial breast cancer in Sweden. This study evaluated the distribution and impact of an established PRS (PRS313) in women undergoing clinical sequencing for hereditary breast cancer. Findings: We integrated PRS313 into a hereditary breast cancer gene panel used in clinical practice and calculated scores

PURPOSE: Techniques for endovascular thrombectomy in acute ischemic stroke due to medium or distal vessel occlusions (MDVO) need to be improved, and first-line aspiration is emerging as a promising technique. The objective was to describe first-pass and final reperfusion rates with a triaxial direct aspiration first pass technique (ADAPT) and a novel, quadriaxial technique (QUATTRO-ADAPT) using RE

Background: Prenatal exposure to per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) may influence lung and immune system development, but previous epidemiological studies are inconclusive and have not extended into young adulthood. Objective: To examine associations between prenatal exposure to a mixture of PFAS and respiratory and immune-related outcomes in a cohort of males. Methods: We studied 866 male

Brown adipose tissue (BAT) plays a key role in metabolic homeostasis through its thermogenic effects and the secretion of regulatory molecules. Here we report that RAP250 haploinsufficiency stimulates BAT in mice, thus contributing to a decrease in fat accumulation. Local in vivo AAV-mediated RAP250 silencing in BAT reduces body weight and fat mass and enhances glucose oxidation, thereby indicatin

The Middle Darriwilian Isotopic Carbon Excursion (MDICE) is one of the globally recognized positive excursions in carbon isotope chemostratigraphy, but mainly documented by δ13Ccarb data in previous research. In this paper, new stable organic carbon isotope data (δ13Corg) are presented from the Hule-1 core from the southern Anhui Province of southern China. The core constitutes an Ordovician silic

Background: Untargeted metabolomic analysis provides novel insights into the relationship between sodium intake and cardiometabolic risk. This study examined cross-sectional associations between estimated sodium intake and plasma metabolite profiles in a large Swedish cohort. Methods: This cross-sectional analysis was conducted in the in the SCAPIS cohort (mean age 50–64 years, n = 8,957). Sodium

Traditional methods for microbial water quality testing take up to two days to produce results, putting humans in contact with this water risk during this period. Flow cytometry, including with online capacity, is a fast and efficient way to profile microbes in water. In this study, Escherichia coli concentrations determined by Colilert18 and flow cytometry profiles from the same water samples wer

Purpose of Review: This review synthesizes current knowledge of the aggregation pheromones of Ips bark beetles specialized on coniferous hosts. The pest potential of these insects is increasing globally due to climate change and anthropogenic disturbances. The high aggressiveness of some species results from coordinated mass attacks on trees, mediated by male-produced aggregation pheromones. Bring

Electric buses are increasingly popular in public transport systems globally, and in many European contexts, this transition takes place through public procurement. While previous research argues that electrification challenges existing procurement practices and strategies, the aim of the paper is to contribute new knowledge on the role of public procurement in the transition to electric buses andElectric buses are increasingly popular in public transport systems globally, and in many European contexts, this transition takes place through public procurement.

Telomerase plays an important role in sustaining eukaryotic linear chromosomes, as elongation of telomeres is needed to counterbalance the shortening occurring in each replication round. Nevertheless, in telomerase-deficient cells, Alternative Lengthening of Telomeres (ALT) pathways can maintain telomeres by employing recombination-based mechanisms. In the budding yeast Naumovozyma castellii, effe

A patient with multiple endocrine neoplasia 2A (MEN2A) and a suspicion of metastasized pheochromocytoma, underwent multi-molecular positron emission tomography (PET) imaging with the recently presented radiopharmaceutical [18F]-metafluorobenzylguanidine (mFBG), [68Ga]Ga-DOTA-TOC and [18F]F-dihydroxyphenylalanine (DOPA) as well as scintigraphy with [123I]-metaiodobenzylguanidine (mIBG). The methods

Background: Celiac disease is associated with HLA-risk haplotypes, but non-HLA genes and environmental factors are also linked to disease susceptibility. In this study, we explore the molecular pathways involved in celiac disease by analyzing the differential expression of genes in both the gut and peripheral blood across various celiac disease phenotypes. Methods: Whole genome RNA sequencing was
