Alternative fuels for combustion engines are becoming increasingly popular as society is pushing to phase out fossil energy to reduce CO2 emissions. The compression ignition (CI) engine has a high overall efficiency which makes it a valuable option for the transport fleet, despite the well known NOx and soot pollutants it emits. These two pollutants are emitted due to a combination of high local cAlternative fuels for combustion engines are becoming increasingly popular as society is pushing to phase out fossil energy to reduce CO2 emissions.

OBJECTIVE: Resistance to androgens has been suggested as a possible cause of male infertility. This hypothesis is based mainly on binding studies in genital skin fibroblasts but the molecular evidence is sparse. DESIGN: Molecular studies of the androgen receptor gene were performed in 10 azoo- or oligozoospermic men, precenting with clinical signs of low androgen activity - poor virilization and h

Aims/hypotheses: Smoking and use of smokeless tobacco (snus) are associated with an increased risk of type 2 diabetes. We investigated whether smoking and snus use increase the risk of latent autoimmune diabetes in adults (LADA) and elucidated potential interaction with HLA high-risk genotypes. Methods: Analyses were based on Swedish case–control data (collected 2010–2019) with incident cases of L

Investigating the initiation of childhood leukemia Leukemia is a cancer of the early blood-forming cells, causing a rise in the number of white blood cells in your body. These extra white blood cells can’t fight an infection the way normal white blood cells do. This also causes a reduction on red blood cells, that supply oxygen, and also a reduction on platelets that clot the blood. Due to this

Background: High gluten and low dietary fiber in pregnancy intake is associated with an increased risk of celiac disease (CeD) in the child. Early life higher dietary quality is suggested to reduce the subsequent risk of CeD. Objectives: The aim was to investigate associations of pregnancy dietary quality and diversity with child risk of CeD. Methods: In The Norwegian Mother, Father and Child Coho

Background: There is no consensus or clinical guidelines for screening routines of autoimmune disease in individuals with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA), since results are conflicting whether the risk for such conditions is increased or not among individuals with JIA. The aim of this study was to investigate if the frequency of comorbid autoimmune conditions is increased after JIA diagnosis i

I Sverige måste man som utgångspunkt samtycka till all hälso- och sjukvård. Det förutsätter att man har beslutsförmåga vilket för patienter med demens-sjukdom inte alltid är fallet. Tydliga regler för hur vård ska ges till patienter som inte har förmågan att samtycka och bestämma över sin vård saknas i Sverige. Denna framställning uppehåller sig kring denna problematik. Uppsatsen syfte är att undIn Sweden, consent is required for all health care. This requires the ability to make decisions, which is not always the case for patients with dementia. Clear rules on how care should be provided to patients who do not have the capacity to consent and decide on their care are lacking in Sweden. This presentation focuses on this problem. The aim of the paper is to examine the right to health of p

Victoria Persson Abstract Mussel cultivation is a sustainable type of food production that may help mitigate the nutritional needs of a future world population of 10-12 billion in 2100. The demand for mussels on the French market is increasing but the production is saturated due to a lack of space for expanding the cultivation close to shore. This study looked at offshore possibilities for cult

Mathematical modeling is very important when experimental settings with human subjects are restricted to thermal limits necessary to protect the individual. The predicted heat strain (PHS) model has been published AS ISO 7933 for about six years. It describes a method for predicting the sweat rate and internal core temperature that the human body will develop in response to the working conditions.

De utmaningar som dagens och kommande generationer står inför, till följd av klimatförändringarnas konsekvenser, har inga motsvarigheter i historien. Därför utmanas vårt tänkande och agerande från grunden. Som en följd av detta finns en rörelse som försöker påverka politiken och samhället i en mer hållbar riktning: klimataktivisterna. I oktober 2024 friades en klimataktivist av Stockholms tingsrätThe challenges faced by current and future generations as a result of the impacts of climate change are unprecedented. Therefore, our modes of thinking and acting are being fundamentally challenged. As a result, a new climate movement has emerged, calling on politicians to ensure sustainable policies and societies. In October 2024, a climate activist was acquitted by the Stockholm District Court o

Penningtvätt utgör ett problem för samhällsekonomin, då det innebär ett hot mot det finansiella systemet om pengar med kriminellt ursprung hamnar i den legala ekonomin. Sveriges skydd för att kriminella tillgångar tvättas i den legala ekonomin har visat sig ineffektivt. Financial Action Task Force on money laundering har påpekat bristerna i svensk rätt och rekommenderat åtgärder då det inte finns If money with illicit origins enters into circulation in the financial system it poses a threat to the mechanisms of the financial system. Financial Action Task Force have concluded that the Swedish legal requirements for combating money laundering is insufficient, and the organisation have advised Swedish authorities to effectuate preventive measures. Therefore, the Swedish legal system is not co

Uganda faces various challenges related to compliance, including tax evasion, regulatory non- compliance, and violations of legal standards, laws, policies and regulations among others. These issues undermine the government's ability to collect revenue, provide public services, and maintain law and order. Enhancing compliance is not only a matter of enforcing penalties but also involves creati

Background: Transient ischemic attacks (TIA) indicate an increased risk of stroke, one of the leading causes of death and disability worldwide. In order to prevent stroke, our knowledge of diagnosis, demographics, risk factors, investigations, and treatment of patients with TIA needs to be improved.Aims: The aims of this thesis were to validate data and diagnoses in the Riksstroke TIA module (Riks
