AIMS: The majority of all breast cancers are hormone responsive, traditionally defined by the expression of oestrogen receptor (ER) alpha and/or progesterone receptors. In contrast to ERalpha, the clinical significance of the relatively recently identified ERbeta is still unclear. This study aimed to define the relationship between ERbeta and clinicopathological parameters in a mixed cohort of bre
Background: The aims of this study were to estimate the prevalence of left ventricular systolic (LVSD) and diastolic (LVDD) dysfunction, and to test if BNP and urinary albumin excretion rate (AER) are related to LVSD, LVD and left ventricular mass (LVM) in asymptomatic type 2 diabetes patients. Methods: Presence of LVSD, LVDD and LVM, determined with echocardiography, was related to levels of BNP
This thesis examines the rhetoric used on three anti corporate activist groups to draw visitors’ attention to their causes and support them and get them engaged and involved in their campaigns. In particular, global anti corporate activism is examined in this thesis, as an interesting yet not so much explored topic of research. Activists often share public relations goals, and they use more and mo
This thesis examines the way social norms affect meat-consuming behavior, through using dietary habits as a way of expressing a political identity. A theoretical framework of social psychological theories will explain the connection between social norms and meat-consumption, by conceptualizing identity as a fundamentally social construction, created within the social context. Theories will further
Hibernating brown bears (Ursus arctos) and black bears (Ursus americanus) spend half of the year in a physically inactive state inside their winter dens without food intake and defecating and no or little urination. Under similar extreme conditions, humans would suffer from loss of lean body mass, heart failure, thrombosis, azotemia, osteoporosis, and more. However, bears exit the den in the sprin
The European Union's Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) has not halted farmland biodiversity loss. The CAP post-2023 has a new ‘‘Green Architecture,’’ including the new ‘‘Eco-scheme’’ instrument. How can this new Green Architecture help tackle the biodiversity crisis? Through 13 workshops and an online survey, over 300 experts from 23 European Member States addressed this question. From experts’ con
This paper shows that the socio-technical barriers that sustainable innovations face, may stem from global regimes. Existing transitions approaches like the Technological Innovation System (TIS), overlook the impact of global regimes on radical innovation. Building on institutional theory, we therefore develop a theoretical framework that captures TIS-regime interaction, allowing us to analyze the
CBAM aims to simultaneously drive EU competitiveness and decarbonisation by ‘levelling the playing field’ for EU-based producers. However, as a form of carbon tariff CBAM risks jeopardising downstream sectors’ competitiveness. This concern stems from CBAM charging a carbon price on imported intermediaries which are used as inputs for downstream EU manufactures. This carbon premium is not reflected
Stormwater is runoff water from snow or rain events that enters a recipient shortly after the precipitations has reached the ground. Stormwater can contain heavy metals and nutrients depending on the type and size of the catchment area as well as the intensity and regularity of the precipitation. In high amounts, the pollutants can inhibit algal growth and have a negative effect in algal diversity
Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is a heterogeneous group of lymphomas in terms of molecular profile and clinical outcomes, highlighting the need to identify new biomarkers to stratify patients. In this thesis, the protein expression of BCL2, PLK1, MYC and p53 was evaluated in a DLBCL-cohort using multiplex immunofluorescence (mIF) to investigate correlations between protein expression and su
Between 2024 and 2026, AI providers launched dedicated agent products and presented them as tools that can plan, decide and carry out marketing tasks with greater independence than earlier generative AI. On LinkedIn, Swedish marketing executives and industry opinion leaders produce a parallel discourse that reaches the same professional audience. This study examines how the relationship between th

The importance of wild bees for crop pollination is well established, but less is known about which species contribute to service delivery to inform agricultural management, monitoring and conservation. Using sites in Great Britain as a case study, we use a novel qualitative approach combining ecological information and field survey data to establish a national list of crop pollinating bees for fo
ABSTRACT The purpose of this study is to examine how young adults with non-European background and with an upbringing in a city associate to nature and what may have influenced these associations. Given that a majority of people live in cities, there is a risk that many young people do not spend time in natural environments, which may affect their associations to nature and also their environment
Type Ia Supernovae (SNe Ia) are considered the most reliable standard candles and they have played an invaluable role in cosmology since the discovery of the Universe's accelerated expansion. During the last decades, the SNe Ia samples have been improved in number, redshift coverage, calibration methodology, and systematics treatment. These efforts led to the most recent “Pantheon” (2018) and “Pan
