As a researcher, there are a number of platforms and services where you can publish your research data. It is important to choose the right place so that your research reaches the right audience, but also meets current standards and requirements. Research data publishing servicesWhen publishing research data, you can use general services or subject-specific options.Swedish National Data Service (S
ILO 169 – Indigenous and Tribal Peoples Convention - is an international treaty that deals exclusively with the rights of indigenous peoples. Sweden is a country that normally commits to human rights and international treaties. However, it is still one of the countries that has not ratified ILO 169. By conducting a critical discourse analysis with a postcolonial approach, this study problematizes
Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning Arktis har under de senaste årtiondena upplevt betydande uppvärmning och enligt prognoser förväntas ytterligare höjningar av både lufttemperatur och nederbörd under det kommande århundradet. Det förändrade klimatet har haft omfattande konsekvenser för permafrosten (ständigt frusen mark) som format och kraftigt präglar stora delar av det arktiska landskapet. Med öThe Arctic region has experienced significant warming in the past decades and according to predictions further increases in air temperatures and precipitation will occur during the 21st century. Recent changes in climate have had widespread implications for the permafrost around the Arctic. Shorter periods of snow covering the Arctic regions significantly reduce the average annual albedo which dra
Evidence showed preventive impacts of the highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) on the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) transmission amomg heterosexual population, however, that is of deficit among men who have sex with men (MSM). The aim was to systematically examine the efficacy of HAART on HIV transmission and the association between the HAART initiation and unprotected anal intercours
Public transport affects people on a daily basis and therefore it is important for the public transport sector to improve the user experience for travellers. Simplicity is a keyword in the improved user experience where mobile solutions play an important role for the experience. The aim in this master thesis is to explore ways how to use a smartphone to make it easier for travellers and how to pre
Background: The United States (US) is currently facing a public health crisis due to the percentage of obesity in adolescents. The Center for Disease Control (CDC) stated the risks for children due to obesity are many. Adolescents obtain a large portion of their daily caloric intake at school; therefore, what foods/drinks they are consuming is so serious. Objective: To identify and analyze literat
A general mathematical model for the characterization of the dynamic (kinetically labile) association of supramolecular assemblies in solution is presented. It is an extension of the equal K (EK) model by the stringent use of linear algebra to allow for the simultaneous presence of an unlimited number of different units in the resulting assemblies. It allows for the analysis of highly complex dyna
This chapter takes its departure in the persistent mythology surrounding the so-called forest Finns who migrated from Finland to Sweden and further on to America in the seventeenth century. The forest Finns have traditionally been regarded as a clear-cut and bounded ethnical group, represented by a specific suit of material culture and practices. However, by comparing archaeological remains and wr
OBJECTIVE: Currently available hand prostheses lack sensory feedback. A "phantom hand map", a referred sensation, on the skin of the residual arm is a possible target to provide amputees with non-invasive somatotopically matched sensory feedback. How-ever, not all amputees experience a phantom hand map. The aim of this study was to explore whether touch on predefined areas on the forearm can be as
Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingen pressenterar resultat från fyra studerade områden; En undersökning av hur nya kolvrörelser (volym-vevvinkel relationer) påverkar utsläpp, effekt och verkningsgrad; En undersökning av hur kväveoxid påverkar självantändning och knack; En undersökning av hur vätgas och reformerad metanol (RMG) kan utnyttjas som bränsle, dels i vanliga tändstiftsantända (SI) moThe results presented in this thesis can be divided into four areas of investigation: Investigation of the effect of new volume-crank angle relations on engine emissions, power and efficiency; investigation of nitrogen oxides effect on auto ignition and knock in SI engines; investigation of premixed SI and HCCI engine operation with the alternative fuels hydrogen and reformed methanol gas (RMG); s
The modern requirements on power transmissions focus on energy efficiency, low noise and dynamic vibrations, and power density. In order to meet these requirements, the gear wheels must be manufactured to very high precision. Additionally, it should be economical to manufacture these gears within the tight requested tolerances. Gears manufactured within automotive, truck, and construction equipmen
Physical exercise affects hippocampal structure and function, but the underlying neural mechanisms and the effects of exercise intensity remain incompletely understood. Therefore, we undertook a comprehensive, multi-modal 3T and 7T MRI randomized controlled trial (Netherlands Trial Register - NL5847) in which we randomized 52 young, non-athletic volunteers to a 12-week low- or high-intensity exerc
BACKGROUND: Cardiac rehabilitation is central in reducing mortality and morbidity after myocardial infarction. However, the fulfillment of guideline-recommended cardiac rehabilitation targets is unsatisfactory. eHealth offers new possibilities to improve clinical care.OBJECTIVE: This study aims to assess the effect of a web-based application designed to support adherence to lifestyle advice and se
The present paper reports findings from a controlled large-scale (N = 1018) experimental study investigating how four different gender-fair forms influenced native French speakers’ estimated percentage of women compared to the masculine form (interpretable as generic) in 22 non-stereotyped French role nouns. The findings show that the masculine form generated lower perceived percentages of women c
Context. Globular clusters (GCs) carry information about the formation histories and gravitational fields of their host galaxies. It was found before that the radial profiles of the volume number density of GCs in GC systems (GCSs) follow broken power laws, while the breaks occur approximately at the a0 radii. These are the radii at which the gravitational fields of the galaxies equal the galactic
Background and purpose: Behavioral variant frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD) is essentially characterized by progressive changes in personality and cognition. Clinically, bvFTD presents with often profound behavioral symptomatology. Despite the high burden of these symptoms for both patients and caregivers, there is no general consensus on an effective pharmacological symptomatic treatment. Interest
This article describes the effect of the oxidative stress inducers Angiotensin II and 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) on different cell lines. The levels of expression Angiotensin type 1 and type 2 receptors in different dopaminergic cell lines are shown. The data indicate that treatment with Angiotensin II and 6-OHDA increases the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and decreases cell viabilit
