Premise: Many animals provide ecosystem services in the form of pollination including honeybees, which have become globally dominant floral visitors. A rich literature documents considerable variation in single visit pollination effectiveness, but this literature has yet to be extensively synthesized to address whether honeybees are effective pollinators. Methods: We conducted a hierarchical meta-

I slutet av 1950-talet inledde Sveriges Scoutförbund utbildningssatsningen Stilskolan vid några av landets industri- och lärlingsskolor. Utbildningen utmynnade i ett samarbete med Svenska herrmoderådet, där organisationerna såg en möjlighet att utbilda ungdomar i frågor som rörde uppträdande och värderingar. I den här artikeln undersöker vi mer specifikt hur Stilskolan sökte väcka intresse bland uIn the late 1950s, Sveriges Scoutförbund (the Swedish Scout Association) launched courses for vocational schools called Stilskolan (lit. ”Style school”). A few years later, the Scout Association (from 1960 known as Svenska Scoutförbundet, the Swedish Guide and Scout Association) entered into a partnership with the Swedish Men’s Fashion Council, which provided material for the courses. The organisa

Lung transplantation (LTx) is an established therapeutic option for end-stage pulmonary disease. However, it remains restricted by donor lung scarcity. Donor's lungs are rejected frequently due to severe lung damage caused by aspiration or neurogenic pulmonary oedema that can all lead to acute lung injury (ALI), and more severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Lung transplant patients f

BACKGROUND: X-ray micro-tomography (μCT) is a powerful non-destructive 3D imaging method applied in many scientific fields. In combination with propagation-based phase-contrast, the method is suitable for samples with low absorption contrast. Phase contrast tomography has become available in the lab with the ongoing development of micro-focused tube sources, but it requires sensitive and high-reso

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: The homeostatic chemokines CCL21 and CCL19 have been explored as biomarkers in cardiovascular disease prediction in patients with established cardiovascular disease, but associations between these chemokines and first-time coronary event incidence have not been investigated before. Here, we explored associations between CCL21 or CCL19 and first-time incident coronary events in

This report proposes a capability assessment framework for countering disinformation, information influence, and foreign interference. At present, much emphasis is placed on the capability to counter disinformation and other associated phenomena. However, few have attempted to systematically define what those countermeasures are, and how they could be placed within a single, coherent capability as

Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is a type of liver cancer with an aggressive phenotype and dismal outcome in patients. The metastasis of CCA cancer cells to distant organs, commonly lung and lymph nodes, drastically reduces overall survival. However, mechanistic insight how CCA invades these metastatic sites is still lacking. This is partly because currently available models fail to mimic the complexity
