This Case Study is about the Pepsi Number Fever incident in the Philippines (1993). A Nationwide disaster that ruined Pepsi's reputation in that country. Riots, Deaths, Bombing, Law suits, everything happened. Pepsi was in a really bad spot and things needed to be fixed. Including, Written Case, Management Decision, Teaching Notes and Presentation, this is the perfect Case for a Case Solving c

Known risk loci for endometrial cancer explain approximately one third of familial endometrial cancer. However, the association of germline copy number variants (CNVs) with endometrial cancer risk remains relatively unknown. We conducted a genome-wide analysis of rare CNVs overlapping gene regions in 4115 endometrial cancer cases and 17,818 controls to identify functionally relevant variants assoc

To obtain insights into the coupling between community composition, diversity and community function, bacterioplankton assemblages from the Gulf of Trieste (Northern Adriatic Sea) were exposed to increasing environmental stress throughout 2 wk in continuous seawater cultures to construct communities differing in composition and diversity. The assemblages were exposed to (1) decreased temperature,

Poor self-rated health (SRH) is associated with incident arterial cardiovascular disease in both sexes. Studies on the association between SRH and incident venous thromboembolism (VTE) show divergent results in women and no association in men. This study focuses on the association between change in SRH and incident VTE in a cohort of 11,558 men and 6682 women who underwent a baseline examination a

In this article, we analyse implicit connections between gender equality and particular forms of religion in Sweden, as expressed in political discourse and social media debates. Instagram posts responding to the Christian Democrats [Kristdemokraterna] political party’s proposal to ban the wearing of veils in Swedish primary schools in 2021 were analysed through methods of co-occurrence analysis a

Although many pediatric B-cell lymphoma patients are being cured today, much is still unknown about the pathogenesis of this disease. Protein tyrosine phosphatases are involved in the control of survival, growth, and differentiation of cells. The authors have analyzed 26 pediatric B-cell lymphoma cases for the expression of a panel of phosphatases and report a statistically significant lower expre

The growing demand for corporate transparency and sustainability has intensified the need for effective sustainability reporting, especially in industries like fashion, which face significant environmental and social challenges. This study examines how Patagonia, a leader in sustainable fashion, applies the Double Materiality (DM) framework in its social media communications, focusing on Instagram

The objective of this thesis was the impact evaluation of several parameters affecting daylight conditions in a typical cellular office in Lund, Sweden. The research approach that was followed consisted of three distinct steps; the literature review in order to specify the dependent and independent variables of the study, the simulation part to produce daylight performance data and the graphical a

Aerosol-cloud interactions (ACI) constitute the single largest uncertainty in anthropogenic radiative forcing. To reduce the uncertainties and gain more confidence in the simulation of ACI, models need to be evaluated against observations, in particular against measurements of cloud condensation nuclei (CCN). Here we present a data set - ready to be used for model validation - of long-term observa

Misfolding, self-assembly, and subsequent deposition of amyloid β plaques and tau tangles are closely associated with Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and its neurodegenerative processes, driving healthy neurons into a diseased state. At present, AD is the most widespread form of dementia, causing profound personal and familial hardship as well as imposing a substantial societal economic burden.Currently,The purpose of the work that forms the basis of this thesis has been to investigate fundamental properties of amyloid β and tau self-assembly and their solubility. The results of this research are presented as five research articles. In Paper I, a solubility assay for determining the solubility of amyloid proteins is developed and its use demonstrated for the Aβ40 peptide. Paper II finds that tau

Ocean acidification, warmer temperatures, and the expansion of hypoxic zones in coastal areas are direct consequences of the increase in anthropogenic activities. However, so far, the combined effects of these stressors on calcium carbonate-secreting marine microorganisms - foraminifera are complex and poorly understood. This study reports the foraminiferal survival behavior, and geochemical tr

BACKGROUND: Telomere length (TL) and mitochondrial DNA copy number (mtDNAcn) variations are linked to age-related diseases and are associated with environmental exposure and nutritional status. Limited data, however, exist on the associations with mercury exposure, particularly early in life.OBJECTIVE: We examined the association between prenatal mercury (Hg) exposure and TL and mtDNAcn in 1,145 S

Carbon accounting has become an important part of sustainability governance, as organisations are increasingly expected to report and justify their climate impacts. However, emissions figures are not neutral technical outputs. They are shaped by methodological choices, boundaries, assumptions, data infrastructures, and professional judgement. This is especially relevant for municipalities, where c

Cement är ett av världens mest använda material och agerar som bindemedel i betong och murbruk. Portlandcement, som är den mest förekommande typen av cement, produceras årligen i en kvantitet av fyra miljarder ton. Cementproduktionen står för ca 7 % av de globala koldioxidutsläppen och det finns ett stort intresse i att hitta alternativa vägar och optimeringsmöjligheter, för att minimera klimatpåvCement is one of the world's most used materials and acts as a binder in concrete and mortar. Portland cement, which is the most common type of cement, is produced annually in a quantity of four billion metric tons. Cement production accounts for approximately 7 % of the global carbon dioxide emissions and there is a great interest in finding alternative routes and optimization possibilities,

The COVID-19 pandemic had harsh consequences on human health and society across the globe. In addition to health effects, the pandemic also influenced people’s values, concerns, and ethics due to lockdowns and general limitations in societal activities. In this study, we examined changes in the relationship between people and nature caused by COVID-associated stress, as well as its consequences on

For the last couple of decades the study of strategic narratives has increased in the field of international relationships, allowing for a more sociological approach. Aiming more towards viewing the storytelling and framework that is narrated by nation states and global actors. These narratives are key to understanding how we are affected by narration and the framing of events (Van Noort & Col
