Forest ecosystems play a crucial role in the production and protection of economic, social, and environmental values. To understand current challenges and trajectories shaping future strategies within the Nordic forest sector, it is important to map and trace past and present policy and governance developments. The core contribution of this short communication is to present an open-access database
ObjectivesPre-treatment staging of anal squamous cell carcinoma (ASCC) includes pelvic MRI and [18F]-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography with computed tomography (PET-CT). MRI criteria to define lymph node metastases (LNMs) in ASCC are currently lacking. The aim of this study was to describe the morphological characteristics of lymph nodes (LNs) on MRI in ASCC patients with PET-CT-posi
The pre-tetramerization loop (PTL) of the human tumor suppressor protein p53 is an intrinsically disordered region (IDR) necessary for the tetramerization process, and its flexibility contributes to the essential conformational changes needed. Although the IDR can be accurately simulated in the traditional manner of molecular dynamics (MD) with the end-to-end distance (EEdist) unhindered, we sough
The recently discovered selective glomerular hypofiltration syndromes have increased interest in the actual elimination of molecules in the human kidney. In the present study, a novel human model was introduced to directly measure the single-pass renal elimination of molecules of increasing size. Plasma concentrations of urea, creatinine, C-peptide, insulin, pro-BNP, β2-microglobulin, cystatin C,
Popular Abstract in English Imagine a solar powered flash light. Each photon absorbed by the flash light’s solar cell creates electric energy and the flash light’s light source converts the electrical energy again into photons. The purpose of such a device may be questionable, because you would be surprised if it would create more light than what it absorbs. However, under certain conditions it isIn this thesis the luminescence properties of highly doped semiconductors are studied with focus on degenerately n-doped InP. It is demonstrated how photoluminescence measurements on degenerately doped semiconductors allow an estimation of the doping concentration without need for electrical contacts. The degenerate doping can furthermore reveal the conduction band structure for energies higher th
Research question: To what extent do ROC, EBIT growth, leverage ratio and FCF margin explain variations in stock returns among the 50 largest companies listed on the Stockholm Exchange during the period 2014 - 2024. Purpose: The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between the financial ratios ROC, EBIT growth, leverage ratio and FCF-margin and stock price development among the 50
Denna uppsats behandlar det nya lönetransparensdirektivets och dess införlivande i svensk rätt samt hur det kan komma att påverka svenska arbetsgivare. I uppsatsen används en rättsanalytisk metod för att finna svar på frågeställningarna. Lönetransparensdirektivet har till syfte att förhindra lönediskriminering via insyn i lönesättning för arbetstagare, företrädare och tillsynsmyndighet. Uppsatsen This thesis covers the new Pay Transparency Directive and its implementation in Swedish law, as well as how it may affect Swedish employers. In this essay, a legal analytical method is used to answer the research questions. The Pay Transparency Directive aims to prevent wage discrimination via transparency in the pay system for employees, trade unions and supervisory authorities. The paper recites
Arbetstagarskyddet vid verksamhetsöverlåtelser regleras inom Europeiska unionen (EU) av Rådets direktiv 2001/23/EG av den 12 mars 2001 om till-närmning av medlemsstaternas lagstiftning om skydd för arbetstagares rättig-heter vid överlåtelse av företag, verksamheter eller delar av företag eller verk-samheter (överlåtelsedirektivet). I svensk rätt har reglerna implementerats ge-nom ändringar i lag (The protection of employees in the case of business transfers is regulated within the European Union (EU) by Council Directive 2001/23/EC of 12 March 2001 on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to the safeguarding of employees’ rights in the event of the transfer of under-takings, businesses or parts of undertakings or businesses (Transfer of Un-dertakings directive). In Sw
The EU was initially created as an area of free trade amongst its Member States, its main objective is the realization of the full integration of the internal market. Of central importance to the objective is the fundamental freedoms and thereby the free movement of goods. However, in recent decades issues of an environmental nature have become more prevalent within the EU legal order and a framew
The investing industry has historically been built around the sole purpose to bring superior financial returns to investors. Due to the rising concern towards global social and environmental issues, investments promoting sustainable development have grown popular. Centring sustainable investments debate is the strategy impact investing. The strategy originates from more traditional ethical investm
In the Lutheran tradition, of which the Church of Sweden is part, the spoken and written word often gets an automatic priority over the experience and perception of artistic expression. As a result, the discourse on the role of aesthetics in liturgical formation has come second to the ongoing discussion about the linguistic and semantic meaning of texts. This thesis wants to contribute to a renewe

Talking about inclusion in the workplace is an emerging concept, and the pressure of committing to work with it rests on the companies. The research conducted around inclusion is growing, and there are different suggestions as to how to define and work with the concept. Moreover, companies are lacking evidence to support how to successfully measure it among employees. By exploring inclusion in a s
Now AI is being used nearly in everything we have. Ranging from hand-wrest watches to household systems used inside houses. According to a report by McKinsey and Co, Artificial Intelligence (AI) is expected to have a significant impact on the economy in the coming years, with the potential to add trillions of dollars annually to the global economy. Furthermore, advances in algorithms and data coll
In an effort to improve our understanding of the etiology and treatment of disorders involving symptoms of anxiety and depression, researchers have set out to identify psychological traits that may leave an individual vulnerable to experiencing intense negative emotional reactions. Included among these vulnerabilities are a person’s ability to tolerate negative emotional states (Distress Tolerance
