  2. 21. Mental illness in chronic kidney disease : prognosis, drug utilization, and treatment outcomes

    Author : Nanbo Zhu; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a common yet heterogeneous condition, covering a wide spectrum of disease severity ranging from mildly decreased kidney function to kidney failure. Patients with CKD can often encounter mental health conditions that are related to poor prognosis. READ MORE

  4. 22. Operando Characterisation of Lithium–Sulfur Batteries

    Author : Yu-Chuan Chien; Daniel Brandell; Matthew Lacey; Paul Shearing; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; lithium–sulfur batteries; operando characterisation; intermittent current interruption; X-ray diffraction; small-angle scattering; electrochemical impedance spectroscopy; Chemistry with specialization in Inorganic Chemistry; Kemi med inriktning mot oorganisk kemi;

    Abstract : Lithium–sulfur (Li–S) batteries have been under the spotlight of research on electrochemical energy storage systems, primarily owing to their high theoretical specific energy (2552 Wh kg-1). So far, Li–S cells on the market have presented a specific energy of 400 Wh kg-1, which is superior to many commercial alternatives, but far below the theoretical value. READ MORE

  5. 23. Transactions in cyberspace : the continued use of Internet banking

    Author : Daniel Nilsson; Handelshögskolan i Stockholm; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : In the last decade, more and more service providers have realized the advantage of self-service technologies (SSTs), and, therefore, the number of SSTs has grown at an enormous rate. The infusion of SSTs is dramatically changing the nature of the service encounter because it allows (or forces) consumers to produce their own service encounters by interacting with machines rather than by interacting with a firm’s service personnel (Lee and Allaway, 2002).

  6. 24. Genetics and Growth Regulation in Salmonella enterica

    Author : Jessica M. Bergman; Diarmaid Hughes; Dan I. Andersson; Måns Ehrenberg; Stanley Maloy; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; tufA; tufB; EF-Tu; ppGpp; Stringent response; RNase E; RNA turnover; Post-transcriptional regulation; rpoB; rpoS; Growth in stationary phase; Biology with specialization in Microbiology; Biologi med inriktning mot mikrobiologi; Mikrobiologi; Microbiology; Molekylär genetik; Molecular Genetics; Biology with specialization in Molecular Evolution; Biologi med inriktning mot molekylär evolution;

    Abstract : Most free-living bacteria will encounter different environments and it is therefore critical to be able to rapidly adjust to new growth conditions in order to be competitively successful. Responding to changes requires efficient gene regulation in terms of transcription, RNA stability, translation and post-translational modifications. READ MORE

  7. 25. Microbial temperature dependences in soil: The belowground feedback to climate change

    Author : Dániel Tájmel; MEMEG; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; soil microbial community; microbial growth; microbial respiration; temperature dependence; climate change;

    Abstract : Since the Industrial Revolution, human activities have elevated atmospheric CO2 concentrations. The consequences of this include rising temperatures, shifts in precipitation patterns, and increased intensity and frequency of extreme weather events, such as heat waves and droughts. READ MORE
