Heat pumps are a key technology for decarbonizing residential heating, yet their diffusion remains limited in many countries, partly due to challenges of public acceptance and legitimacy. This study tracks how heat pumps are portrayed in German public discourse by analyzing sentiment in online news coverage. We compile a corpus of 33,131 German heat pump–related news articles published between 201

Hydropower is one of the most promising sources of renewable energy. However, a substantial initial investment requires for the construction of large civil structures. Feasibility study, detailed project report preparation, construction planning, and timely execution of work are the important activities of a hydropower plant. Energy generation in hydropower plants are mainly depends on discharge a

BACKGROUND: Long-term cognitive problems are common among elderly patients after surgery, and it has been suggested that inhalation anaesthetics play a role in the development of dementia. This study aims to investigate the hypothesis that patients with dementia have been more exposed to surgery and inhalational anaesthetics than individuals without dementia.METHODS: Using 457 cases from a dementi

In our homes we enjoy daylight reaching the rooms through the windows, and artificial lighting when there is not enough daylight available. Electrical lighting has been used in Western homes since the late 1910s. We have experienced the technical development from warm incandescent light bulbs to energy-efficient light emitting diods (LED). In Sweden we lack daylight in winter and have a lot of day

Many claims have been made in the past that Management and Organization Studies (MOS) is becoming increasingly fragmented, and that this fragmentation is causing it to drift into self-reference and irrelevance. Despite the weight of this claim, it has not yet been subjected to a systematic empirical test. This paper addresses this research gap using the tribalization approach and diachronic co-cit

Purpose: This study aims to examine changes in the acquired company’s MCS post-M&A and how the employees perceive this change. Further, the purpose is to investigate how employees' perceptions affect the employees’ motivation and identity. Methodology: This study follows a qualitative research approach by analyzing an acquired company in the logistic industry. Data was collected through s

At the same time as the right-wing extremist wind blowing across Europe, the frequency of hate crimes in Europe is on the rise. This paper investigates the relationship between hate crime and unemployment in the municipalities of Sweden. To protect individuals from being identified the hate crime data is left censored at the threshold of 19 reported hate crimes per municipality and year. The data

Does corruption have an impact on export diversification? Despite a growing interest from the international community regarding the detrimental effects of corruption, the consequences it may have for export diversification remain largely unexplored. The purpose of this thesis is to investigate if there is a relationship between the two and, if so, to determine if certain groups of countries have r

BACKGROUND: The aim of the study was to determine the role of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) on the microvasculature and on angiogenetic gene expression after partial hepatectomy (PH) in the rat model.METHODS: To determine the effect of exogenous and endogenous VEGF after PH, rats were subjected to 70% PH and treated either with VEGF, anti-VEGF or NaCl. Postoperatively (3-168 h), vessel

Background: Protein kinase C (PKC) isoforms are potential targets for breast cancer therapy. This study was designed to evaluate which PKC isoforms might be optimal targets for different breast cancer subtypes. Results: In two cohorts of primary breast cancers, PKC alpha levels correlated to estrogen and progesterone receptor negativity, tumor grade, and proliferative activity, whereas PKC delta a

In osteoblasts, cyclooxygenase 2 (COX-2) is the major isozyme responsible for production of prostaglandins. Prostaglandins are local mediators of bone resorption and formation and are known to be involved in bone's adaptive response to fluid shear stress (FSS). We have previously described a model of trabecular bone loss in hindlimb-suspended mice and rats and demonstrated partial protection from

Clinical islet transplantation is currently being explored as a treatment for persons with type 1 diabetes and hypoglycaemia unawareness. Although 'proof-of-principle' has been established in recent clinical studies, the procedure suffers from low efficacy. At the time of transplantation, the isolated islets are allowed to embolise the liver after injection in the portal vein, a procedure that is

Background: Migration is important for the metastatic capacity and thus for the malignancy of cancer cells. There is limited knowledge on regulatory factors that promote the migration of neuroblastoma cells. This study investigates the hypothesis that protein kinase C (PKC) isoforms regulate neuroblastoma cell motility. Methods: PKC isoforms were downregulated with siRNA or modulated with activato
