The PResymptomatic EValuation of Experimental or Novel Treatments for Alzheimer's Disease (PREVENT-AD) is an investigator-driven study that was created in 2011 and enrolled cognitively normal older adults with a family history of sporadic AD. Participants are deeply phenotyped and have now been followed annually for more than 12 years (median follow-up 8.0 years, SD 3.1). Multimodal magnetic reson

Uppsatsen behandlar hur miljörelaterade fordringar hanteras när en verksamhet går i konkurs och i vilken utsträckning principen om att förorenaren ska betala får genomslag i svensk konkursrätt. Utgångspunkten är de praktiska problem som uppstår när kostsamma efterbehandlingsåtgärder aktualiseras först efter konkursutbrottet, samtidigt som det inte finns någon generell skyldighet för staten eller kThis thesis examines how environmental claims are treated when a business is declared bankrupt, and to what extent the polluter pays principle is upheld in Swedish bankruptcy law. The point of departure is the practical difficulties that occur when costly remediation measures become relevant only after the opening of bankruptcy proceedings, while there is no general legal obligation for the State

BACKGROUND: – Proteins linked to heritable coronary heart disease (CHD) could uncover new pathophysiological mechanisms of atherosclerosis. We report on the protein profile associated with a family history of early-onset CHD and whether the relation between proteins and coronary atherosclerotic burden differs according to family history status, as well as inferences from Mendelian randomization. M

Background Trauma is the leading cause of quality-related mortality in low- and middle-income countries, with an estimated two million preventable deaths each year. Although trauma quality improvement programmes have been utilised in high-income countries for more than three decades, there is no high-level evidence of their effect on patient outcomes. We aimed to assess whether implementing a cont

Sweden’s grocery distribution is routed through a limited number of upstream hubs and relies on corridors and ferry links. When disruptions affect a hub or a critical link, reallocations propagate fast and travel times increase, with some areas losing coverage temporarily. Decentralising the whole system is costly, so targeted resilience options must be evaluated. The purpose of this thesis is to

Denna avhandling undersöker hur aktörer i Stilla havet producerade och spred oppositionell kunskap om kärnvapentester från 1950-talet till början av 2000-talet, med Franska Polynesien i fokus. För att analysera detta lanseras begreppet vittnesaktivism som övergripande står för organiserade praktiker av vittnesmål, dokumentinsamling, arkivering och transnationell spridning, genom vilka aktörer utmaThis dissertation examines how actors in the Pacific produced, mobilized, and circulated oppositional knowledge about nuclear weapons testing from the 1950s to the early 2000s, with French Polynesia as its primary focus. At its core is witness activism: coordinated practices of testimony, document retrieval and annotation, archiving, publication, and transnational circulation through which activis

During migratory endurance flights, which are energetically very demanding, migrants have to deal with prolonged elevated generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). To limit the damaging actions that ROS have on lipids and proteins, migrating birds are known to upregulate their antioxidant defence system. However, there may be additional ways to limit oxidative damage incurred from flying. Migra

Extracellular matrix remodeling mechanisms are understudied in cardiac development and congenital heart defects. We show that matrix-degrading metalloproteases ADAMTS1 and ADAMTS5, are extensively co-expressed during mouse cardiac development. The mouse mutants of each gene have mild cardiac anomalies, however, their combined genetic inactivation to elicit cooperative roles is precluded by tight g

The fate of soil organic matter (OM) is determined by its microbial use for growth or respiration. Many environmental factors influence microbial OM use, including the presence of contaminants and toxins in the environment, such as heavy metals. We evaluated short- and long-term responses of microbial processes to metal contamination by estimating biomass concentrations and growth rates of bacteri

Older people make up an increasing proportion of the homeless population and their homelessness is often combined with problems such as substance use, mental illness and physical problems. While much research has focused on short-term shelters, food and clothing, less is known about arrangement providing permanent supportive housing where older homeless adults can stay the rest of their lives. Thi

BACKGROUND: Fast-tracking and early endotracheal extubation have been described in patients undergoing surgery for congenital heart disease (CHD); however, criteria for patient selection have not been validated in a prospective manner. Our goal in this study was to prospectively identify factors associated with the decision to defer endotracheal extubation in the operating room (OR).METHODS: We pe

An extended version of a numerical model introduced by Larson et al. (2013) to simulate long-term cross shore material exchange for the subaqueous portion of the profile has been developed. Efforts have focused on improving the model to better account for beach systems consisting of two bars (inner and outer bar), as well as simulating the feeder response over time of nearshore dredged material ba

PURPOSE: The prevalence of iron deficiency (ID) in Left Ventricular Assist Device (LVADs) recipients is not known nor has the association between ID and peak oxygen uptake (VO2) been reported. The aim of this study was to study to investigate the prevalence of ID in this population and the association between ID and VO2. METHODS: Data was included from LVAD recipients at Rigshospitalet, Denmark (D

Non-fungible tokens (NFTs) are a type of cryptocurrency that consist of unique, non-exchangeable tokens, which are traded on a blockchain. These unique tokens are associated with digital assets such as images, art, videos, or music. With the rapid rise of NFTs’ popularity in 2021, a community established around trading, selling, and collecting of NFTs. This study explored the NFT community at larg

Call for Applications: All My Relations IV Ecocamp – Nomadic Encounters September 4–6, 2025 For its fourth edition of All My Relations, the Ecocamp transforms into a nomadic experience. This year, we embrace movement—not just as a physical act, but as a metaphor for existence itself. Walking, travelling, and traversing landscapes will be central to our practice, fostering new connections on the mo
