Freight transportation security concerns both public and private actors, however, their interests are often misaligned resulting in conflicting pressure and trade-offs. To understand this, a connection of macro and micro perspectives is required, which is enabled by an institutional lens.

This perspective article explores how sustainability transitions experience a geo-economization based on rising concerns about sovereignty. We argue that sovereignty has yet again become an active force structuring socio-technical trajectories. In this case, socio-technical systems tend to be reconfigured in ways that first and foremost ensure the continued provision of their core societal functio

Background: Heart diseases are among the leading causes of disease burden worldwide with often a large impact on the lives of the affected individuals. The association between heart disease and depression is well-known and elevated suicide risk has been demonstrated in several types of heart disease. The aim of this study was to investigate what health care contacts individuals with heart disease

Rickard Länta är renskötare i Jåhkågasska sameby i den svenska delen av Sápmi. Hans renbetesmarker är starkt påverkade av projekt såsom skogsavverkning, vattenkraft, infrastrukturutveckling och turism. Därtill har det kontroversiella gruvprojektet i Gállok, som också är beläget i detta område, godkänts av den svenska regeringen och Högsta domstolen. Denna artikel bygger på ett samtal där Rickard bRickard Länta is a reindeer herder in Jåhkågasska reindeer herding community in Swedish administered Sápmi. The land in which his reindeer are migrating has already been impacted by projects such as deforestation, hydropower, infrastructure development, and tourism. In addition, the controversial Gállok mining project, which is also located in this land, has been approved by the Swedish government

Transient activation of fibroblasts into contractile myofibroblasts is essential for extracellular matrix (ECM) production and remodeling during wound healing and tissue regeneration. While ECM-dependent mechanisms mediating transient activation is well studied, how fibroblasts switch from transient to a persistently activated state and drive fibrosis and aberrant tissue repair in diseases such as

Handelns omställning mot cirkulär ekonomi är en av vår tids mest angelägna utmaningar. Allt fler handelsföretag experimenterar med cirkulära tjänster som second hand, reparation och uthyrning, men frågan om hur dessa tjänster ska integreras i butikernas dagliga verksamhet på ett effektivt och lönsamt sätt är långt ifrån löst.Projektets utgångspunkt var att butiken spelar en nyckelroll i handelns c

BACKGROUND: A significant proportion of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients have characteristics of high-bleeding -risk (HBR). Their influence on ischaemic and bleeding-events in AMI all-comers is not well described.METHODS: AMI Patients in England and Wales (E&W), and Sweden between 2005 and 2019 were included from MINAP and SWEDEHEART national registries. Patients were categorised acc

Hedgehog (Hh) signaling is essential for embryonic development and tissue homeostasis in organisms. However, Caenorhabditis elegans lacks canonical Hh signaling due to the absence of key components, such as smoothened (SMO) and obvious Hh ligands. Despite this, C. elegans retains Patched homologs, ptc-1 and ptc-3, which have specialized independent functions. Although ptc-1 is predominant

Background: Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is frequently used in the treatment of chronic coronary syndrome (CCS), although its impact on long-term prognosis and symptom relief remains debated. Among patients undergoing revascularisation with PCI, data on clinical outcomes following drug-coated balloon (DCB) based PCI in unselected patient populations is limited, and the comparative effe

AIMS: To build a comprehensive biobank integrated in the Swedish Heart Failure Registry (SwedeHF) comprising comprehensive clinomic data, proteomic, transcriptomic and genomic information in combination with clinical and diagnostic characteristics and additional ICD-code registry data.METHODS: Blood and urine samples will be biobanked at SwedeHF registration with an optional second sampling after

CVD (chemical vapor deposition) coated cutting tools typically exhibit thermal cracks caused by the mismatch in coefficients of thermal expansion (CTEs) between coating and cemented carbide. These cracks act as weak points during stainless steel machining, contributing to premature tool wear. As a strategy to suppress thermal cracks formation, we investigate replacing the conventional cemented car

ackground: Exclusive breastfeeding during the first six months of life is a global public health recommendation and offers well-established and significant benefits for infant health and development, as well as health benefits for women. Most breastfeeding research focuses on the early postpartum period, despite the WHO recommendations to continue breastfeeding for up to two years or longer. Inves

Objective To explore the effects of immediate parent–infant skin-to-skin contact (iSSC) at very preterm birth on maternal–infant behavioural responses and hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal (HPA) axis reactivity to age-appropriate socio-emotional stress at 4months corrected age. Design Two secondary outcomes from a multicentre randomised controlled trial with two non-blinded parallel groups. Setting T

HVAC systems have the purpose of improving indoor air quality in buildings to enhance appropriate occupants- comfort, health and good productivity. Window airing may be one measure to consider in the absence of occupant control of the ventilation and by that, we mean occupants opening windows and doors. Approximating the volume of air exchanged during window airing is important in understanding th

Background: Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) survivors are at increased risk of major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACE) compared with population controls; however, little is known about the annual rates and risk factors for MACE. Methods: We searched Medline, Embase, and trial registries systematically in April 2024 for studies of adults with ICH, reporting either a MACE compo

Animals align their body in relation to different environmental cues, including spontaneous directional responses relative to the geomagnetic field known as magnetic body alignment. The biological significance of this behavior, however, remains undetermined for most taxa. In previous studies, migratory songbirds aligned their body with the cardinal directions of the geomagnetic field and their mig

The construction industry is a major contributor to resource consumption and waste generation in the EU, making the transition to circular construction essential. Reuse of building products is an important circular strategy, but large-scale implementation is hindered by limited market maturity and uncertainty regarding product availability. This study aims to investigate the gap between reported a

The energy system is undergoing significant changes and is expected to continue to evolve. Energy demand is anticipated to increase, as is renewable energy capacity, and technical solutions are advancing. For electrical power, traditionally centralized production is increasingly complemented by distributed production, transforming fundamental system functionality. These developing factors will aff
