The Italian Sarcoma Group and the Scandinavian Sarcoma Group designed a joint study to improve the prognosis for patients with Ewing's family tumors and synchronous metastatic disease limited to the lungs, or the pleura, or a single bone. The study was opened in 1999 and closed to the enrollment in 2008. The program consisted of intensive five-drug combination chemotherapy, surgery and/or radiothe
"Reduce, reuse, redesign: Lund University as a testbed for tackling the plastic crisis" (funded by Lund University Sustainability Fund, 2024–2025) was a hands-on project where we joined forces with Plastikfreie Stadt (Plastic-Free City) to identify solutions for limiting reliance on single-use plastics at Lund University. It was conducted in three steps:1. Existing practicesWe identified existing

Unemployment and long-term unemployment is a recurring topic that is discussed in public debates. The recurring question is how society should solve this problem. But how and why is long-term unemployment considered a social problem? This essay aims to investigate two municipal labor market projects aimed at the long-term unemployed. The material was obtained from the City of Malmö's Labor and
OBJECT: Immortalized neural progenitor cells derived from embryonic rat hippocampus (HiB5), were transduced ex vivo with the gene for mouse nerve growth factor (NGF) to secrete NGF (NGF-HiB5) at 2 ng/hr/10(5) cells in culture. METHODS: Fifty-nine male Wistar rats weighing 300 to 370 g each were anesthetized with 60 mg/kg sodium pentobarbital and subjected to lateral fluid-percussion brain injury o
Background: Opioid overdose related injury or death can be prevented by bystander naloxone administration. For naloxone to be present when and where overdoses occur, opioid prevention education and naloxone distribution (OPEND) must be established on a broad level. This is the 30-month follow-up of the first multi-site naloxone project in Sweden, implemented at 31 sites in the County of Skåne 2018
Reflections from the second mobile research lab on food sharingAuthors: Yuliya Voytenko Palgan, Vera Sadovska and Jennifer LyonsThe second mobile research lab on food sharing as part of the EU project CULTIVATE is now concluded. In October 2024, the IIIEE research team Yuliya Voytenko Palgan, Vera Sadovska, Oksana Mont and Andrius Plepys in the second mobile research lab on food sharing in Milan,

Metal ions are essential cofactors for precursor tRNA (ptRNA) processing by bacterial RNase P. The ribose 2'-OH at nucleotide (nt) –1 of ptRNAs is known to contribute to positioning of catalytic Me2+. To investigate the catalytic process, we used ptRNAs with single 2'-deoxy (2'-H), 2'-amino (2'-N), or 2'-fluoro (2'-F) modifications at the cleavage site (nt –1). 2' modifications had small (2.4–7.7-
Estrogen receptor a is expressed in the majority of breast cancers and promotes estrogen-dependent cancer progression. In our study, we identified the novel E3 ubiquitin ligase SHARPIN function to facilitate ERα signaling. SHARPIN is highly expressed in human breast cancer and correlates with ERα protein level by immunohistochemistry. SHARPIN expression level correlates with poor prognosis in ERα
Effective methods for locating formally protected capercaillie (Tetrao urogallus) lek sites in the Swedish forest landscape are essential for targeted conservation measures. This study aimed to develop a multi-scale habitat suitability model for capercaillie lek sites in the northern Swedish forest counties, and further evaluate its potential to identify priority areas for future field survey effo

The identification of genetic causes for Mendelian disorders has been based on the collection of multi-incident families, linkage analysis, and sequencing of genes in candidate intervals. This study describes the application of next-generation sequencing technologies to a Swiss kindred presenting with autosomal-dominant, late-onset Parkinson disease (PD). The family has tremor-predominant dopa-res
Asparagine-linked glycosylation 13 homolog (ALG13) encodes a nonredundant, highly conserved, X-linked uridine diphosphate (UDP)-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase required for the synthesis of lipid linked oligosaccharide precursor and proper N-linked glycosylation. De novo variants in ALG13 underlie a form of early infantile epileptic encephalopathy known as EIEE36, but given its essential role in g
Bakgrund: Bakgrunden till uppsatsen är de, i forskningen, uppmärksammade bristerna i att förutsäga studieframgång utifrån gymnasiala studieresultat. Forskning kring hur studenters sociala bakgrund påverkar studieframgång och fortsatta studieval, utgör också grund för uppsatsen. I centrum för uppsatsen står de betygsgrundande proven och de kunskaper som där efterfrågas. Syfte: Syftet med uppsatsen
Uppsatsen fokuserar på några vuxnas erfarenheter av att lära sig svenska som andraspråk. Syftet är att undersöka hur vuxna inlärare upplever sin egen svenska idag, vilka faktorer de tillskriver sitt resultat och om de idag känner sig motiverade att fortsätta studera svenska. Metoden är kvalitativ i form av åtta halvstrukturerade intervjuer med kvinnliga informanter i åldrarna 35 till 49. De har bo
Storm surges combine the power of two natural hazards, strong winds and flooding, and can have devastating effects on people, infrastructure, and nature in coastal areas. Ongoing global changes, including rising sea levels and shifting storm patterns, are expected to increase both the frequency and amplitude of such events in the future.

Lake Victoria is Africa’s largest freshwater lake by area shared by three countries: Uganda, Kenya, and Tanzania. The lake supports the economic development of the region through transport and fishing as well as recreational and tourism activities in the three countries. The main ports on the lake are Kisumu, Mwanza, Bukoba, Entebbe, Portbell, and Jinja served by several train ferry services for b
