  2. 1. A numerical model to simulate short-term beach and dune evolution

    Author : Jie Zhang; Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Numerical model; cross-shore transport; beach profile change; dune erosion; offshore mound; storms;

    Abstract : Sediment transport in the cross-shore (CS) and associated changes in the beach profile, especially during storms, have been topics of widespread concern. Since storms are often accompanied by high water levels and large waves, large quantities of sand from the beach and the dune are typically transported offshore, leading to severe beach and dune erosion, which threatens the integrity of buildings and infrastructure near the coast.

  5. 3. Role of protein-tyrosine phospatases in insulin and glucagon secretion in pancreatic islets of healthy rats and spontaneously diabetic GK rats

    Author : Jie Chen; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Protein-tyrosine phosphatase; insulin; glucagon; vanadate; type 2 diabetes; pancreatic islets;

    Abstract : Both insulin and glucagon secretion from pancreatic beta- and alpha-cells, respectively, are regulated by nutrients such as glucose and amino acids. In addition, the mechanisms leading to exocytosis of hormones are influenced by kinases and phosphatases that phosphorylate and dephosphorylate regulatory proteins respectively. READ MORE

  7. 5. Unraveling the relationship between body mass index and cardiometabolic disease, dementia, and survival in old age

    Author : Jie Guo; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Overweight and obesity, commonly defined as a body mass index (BMI) ≥25 kg/m2, affect more than half of older adults. However, the relationship between BMI and health outcomes in old age are unclear. This PhD project aims to describe the trajectories of BMI alongside other anthropometric measures in old age.
