  2. 1. Forest-savanna transitions: Understanding adaptation and resilience of the tropical forest ecosystems using remote sensing

    Author : Chandrakant Singh; Ingo Fetzer; Lan Wang-Erlandsson; Ruud van der Ent; Stefano Manzoni; Udita Sanga; Vivian Ribeiro; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURVETENSKAP; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; NATURAL SCIENCES; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; Environmental Sciences; miljövetenskap; Ecology and Evolution; ekologi och evolution; Hydrology; hydrologi;

    Abstract : Climate and deforestation-induced changes in precipitation drive tropical forest-savanna transitions. However, precipitation alone provides a superficial understanding of the underlying mechanism behind these transitions. This is because our knowledge of how vegetation responds to changes in hydroclimate is fragmented. READ MORE

  4. 2. Rooting for forest resilience : Implications of climate and land-use change on the tropical rainforests

    Abstract : Tropical rainforests in the Amazon and Congo River basins and their climate are mutually dependent. Evaporation from these forests help regulate the regional and global water cycle. Furthermore, these rainforests themselves depend on precipitation to sustain their structure and functions. READ MORE

  5. 3. Idiopathic Sudden Sensorineural Hearing Loss in Sweden : Diagnostic Protocol and Treatment in Relation to Outcome

    Author : Ramesh Nosrati-Zarenoe; Elisabeth Hultcrantz; Stig Arlinger; Leif Hergils; Barbara Canlon; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Otorhinolaryngology; Otorhinolaryngologi;

    Abstract : Idiopathic Sudden Sensorineural Hearing Loss (ISSNHL) is a rapid loss of hearing caused by damage to the cochlea (inner ear) or auditory nerve. Spontaneous recovery has been seen in 32% - 81%. The incidence of the ISSNHL has been estimated to be between 5 and 20 per 100,000 per year. READ MORE

  6. 4. Tinnitus in Patients with Sensorineural Hearing Loss : Management and Quality of Life

    Author : Reza Zarenoe; Torbjörn Ledin; Tomas Lunner; Hans Larsen; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Approximately 15 % of Swedish people experience tinnitus, but only 2.4 % of them experience severe problems. Treatment modalities for tinnitus are varied, but the most common treatment model is counselling. READ MORE

  7. 5. Autoantibody profiling in autoimmune diseases

    Author : Shaghayegh Bayati; Peter Nilsson; Elisa Pin; Peter Heeringa; KTH; []
    Keywords : MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; Autoimmunity; Autoantibodies; Vasculitis; Systemic Sclerosis; affinity proteomics; Biotechnology; Bioteknologi;

    Abstract : Autoimmune disease diagnosis and definition of prognosis can be challenging. Patients with the same autoimmune disease could present with very heterogeneous symptoms. Therefore, there is a need to understand the disease better to improve patients’ diagnosis, and classification, and tailor the treatment. READ MORE
