Key message: The barley mutant xan-h.chli-1 shows phenotypic features, such as reduced leaf chlorophyll content and daily transpiration rate, typical of wild barley accessions and landraces adapted to arid climatic conditions. Abstract: The pale green trait, i.e. reduced chlorophyll content, has been shown to increase the efficiency of photosynthesis and biomass accumulation when photosynthetic mi
Introduction and objectives: This study aimed to describe the cardiovascular risk profile of working young adults from Spain and its association with lifestyle. Methods: Participants (18-30 years) were recruited from a nationwide cohort of economically active adults insured by a large occupational risk prevention company, with data obtained from routine medical assessments. The participants were c
Maladaptive daydreaming is a distinct syndrome in which themain symptom is excessive vivid fantasising that causesclinically significant distress and functional impairment inacademic, vocational and social domains. Unlike normaldaydreaming, maladaptive daydreaming is persistent, compulsiveand detrimental to one’s life. It involves detachmentfrom reality in favour of intense emotional engagement wi
This article examines the expanding role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in healthcare and associated human rights concerns, including whether new EU legislation takes all relevant human rights concerns into account. AI presents promising ways to fulfil the right to health through improving diagnostics, treatments, and resource allocation, but its use also comes with risks concerning privacy, bias
The effect of β-glucan was tested on microstructure, sensory-specific satiation, subsequent food intake, and in vitro lipid digestion. A high internal phase emulsion was prepared with 75 % milk fat and 25 % whey protein water dispersion, and added as the lipid source to milkshake matrices. Two milkshake variants, one with 1 % β-glucan and the other without fibre, were produced and characterised by
Fatal accidents in UK’s manufacturing sector are expected to remain the same or increase in coming years. This paper has tried to combat this issue by adapting and further developing a previously defined Safety Framework for the Paint Sector, to evaluate the safety performance of a metal manufacturing facility. To achieve this, the original Safety Framework was updated to align with the current Br
Background: The aim was to explore independent wheeled mobility in children with CP, and identify predictors of early independent wheeled mobility and changes over time across birth cohorts. Methods: We included data from the Norwegian Quality and Surveillance Registry for Cerebral Palsy (NorCP) comprising 11,565 assessments of 1780 children born in 2002–2019. Variables included demographic data,
Objective: Emergency complex abdominal aortic diseases are challenging to treat. During in situ laser fenestration (ISLF), aortic branches are covered and flow is restored by in situ fenestration of the stent graft, with promising midterm results. This study aimed to expand on the limited body of knowledge of midterm outcomes of ISLF in renovisceral aortic pathology in a multicentre setting. Metho
Methane (CH₄) emissions from landfills are a key uncertainty in Sweden’s national greenhouse gas inventory. This thesis evaluates whether UAV-based CH₄ measurements can complement inventory-based estimates, using Filborna landfill in southern Sweden as a case study. UAV-derived emissions from 2022–2024 were compared with an IPCC Tier 2 First Order Decay model, reproduced from Sweden’s national inv
This paper studies the relationship between Thai-Cambodia border tensions and cooperation against online fraud from February 2021 to February 2026. Online fraud has become a serious cross-border problem in Southeast Asia, and Thailand and Cambodia both have reasons to cooperate against scam compounds and related criminal networks. At the same time, their relationship is shaped by a long history of
Air pockets in pressurized pipelines may reduce hydraulic capacity, increase head losses, and affect system operation. In downward sloping pipe sections, a key question is whether the water flow can transport a trapped air pocket downstream or whether the air is likely to remain stationary, which would require an air valve to evacuate the air. This thesis compares selected criteria and guidance so
International professional mobility has increased significantly in recent years, yet the workplace integration experiences of self-initiated expatriates remain underexplored in academic literature. While Scandinavian workplaces are characterized by formally inclusive organizational cultures, equitable policies and strong DEI commitments, international professionals sometimes perceive the gap b
Managing household energy extends beyond energy itself, it shapes the organisation and survival of everyday life. This thesis explores women’s roles as household energy managers in relation to cooking and cooking-related tasks by foregrounding women’s experiences of everyday energy practices. Focusing on fuel procurement, cooking practices, and securing fuel, the study examines how gender shapes k
IntroductionAlthough transcranial sonography (TCS) assessing hyperechogenic substantia nigra (SN+) as biomarker for Parkinsońs disease (PD) has been introduced elsewhere, the clinical relevance and accuracy in a Swedish population is still unknown.MethodsThis retrospective single-center study included 74 patients with predominantly early-stage parkinsonism at first visit who had been examined by T
A large empirical literature relates corporate ESG performance to corporate financial performance, but the bulk of the evidence is drawn from return on assets and market value measures rather than from operating margin, and most studies estimate a single coefficient pooled across industries. This thesis examines whether year-over-year changes in ESG score are associated with subsequent operating p
Purpose: To assess perceived overall knowledge in geriatric medicine and perceived educational needs in key geriatric topics and skills of health and social care professionals working within the WHO Region Europe. Methods: The sample of this cross-sectional survey was not designed to be nationally representative. We analysed the responses of 5425 professionals who completed a multilingual multinat
Achieving meaningful curriculum internationalization requires moving beyond siloed, ad-hoc efforts, such as relying solely on the International Office, especially when it comes to addressing the key issue of engaging faculty in internationalization efforts. Instead, faculty involvement in curriculum internationalization is best garnered through planning that leverages institutional synergy.To guid
OBJECTIVES: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic disease that requires lifelong medication and self-management. Few studies have explored the coping strategies patients use to make life manageable after an RA diagnosis, and how these strategies function in the adaptive process of living with RA. The aim was to describe coping strategies patients with RA use to manage everyday life during the fir
The aim of this thesis was to determine if and to what extent leprosy and syphilis was present at the graveyard of St:Jörgen in medieval Malmö, as well as trying to understand if it was used as a leprosy hospital. A total of 42 individuals were studied in this thesis. This thesis was based on previous pathological comments regarding changes to the skeleton that could have been interpreted as eithe
