Den flottiga fajten mellan smöret och margarinet

Misstänksamheten mot det nyuppfunna margarinet var nära att leda till ett totalförbud i Sverige kring sekelskiftet 1900. Ännu idag florerar fördomar mot ”konstsmöret”, som måste betraktas som ett av våra mest politiskt kontroversiella livsmedel.

Föreställningen utspelar sig i en magisk världsdel befolkad av märkliga figurer och omöjliga f

Towards alkali-stable polymers and hydroxide exchange membranes functionalized with alicyclic quaternary ammonium cations

In the current work, cationic polymers functionalized with N-alicyclic quaternary ammonium (QA) cations were synthesized and characterized as potential hydroxide exchange membranes (HEMs) for application in fuel cells. Three different polymers, namely poly(arylene ether sulfone), spiro-ionene and poly(arylene alkylene), were explored as polymer backbones for the HEMs. Various mono- and spirocyclic

Going beyond science-policy interaction? : An analysis of views among intergovernmental panel on climate change actors

Scholarly literature on science-policy interaction is typically dividedbetween advocating that science and policy need to be broughtcloser together or separated. In a recent article in this journal,Sundqvist and colleagues [Sundqvist et al. (2018) Oneworld ortwo? Science–policy interactions in the climate field, Critical PolicyStudies, 12:4, 448–468] proposed a typology that structures thisdebate.

LGBTQ in Vietnam: Heteronormativity and Resistance

Recent political, legal and social changes have served to illustrate shifting understandings of sexualities in contemporary Vietnam. Such changes have included pride demonstrations; the establishment of organisations working with LGBTQ rights; debates around same-sex marriage and LGBTQ rights; new legislation; and increased openness about same-sex preferences among young people. Despite these rece

Active or passive chest drainage after oesophagectomy in 101 patients : a prospective randomized study

BACKGROUND: This study evaluates the efficiency and safety of two methods of chest drainage after uncomplicated oesophagectomy.METHODS: A prospective randomized study between active suction drainage and passive chest drainage was carried out in 101 patients who underwent gastric pull-up oesophagectomy.RESULTS: No difference in the prevalence of pneumothorax during treatment was noted between the a

Auditioning for Amazon : The dark side of place branding and corporate domination

This case study on the dark side of communication and place branding explores the Amazon corporation’s highly-publicized competitive search for a city to become their second headquarters (dubbed HQ2). In 2017 Amazon sent an open Request for Proposals (RFP) to cities in North America defining what constitutes an ‘ideal’ headquarters. In addition to offering capital and incentives, Amazon’s ideal ci

The sanitation and urban agriculture nexus: urine collection and application as fertilizer in São Paulo, Brazil

Separately collected urine is an attractive potential fertilizer because of its high nutrient content, low cost, and inherent linkage of urban wastewater management and peri-urban agriculture. Urine from waterless urinals was applied to corn and lettuce plants to examine the impact of urine application rates and frequency on plant growth and soil parameters. In both corn and lettuce experiments, u

Efficacy and tolerability of tropisetron and dexamethasone in the control of nausea and vomiting induced by cisplatin

A multicentre study was performed at four oncology centres in Sweden, in 160 chemotherapy-naive women, primarily with ovarian or endometrial carcinomas. Abdominal surgery preceded chemotherapy in 146 (91%) women, and another 39 (24%) women had a history of radiotherapy. The chemotherapy regimens contained cisplatin (50-100 mg/m2), in combination with a variety of other agents. In Course 1, all pat

The use of chordotomy to treat pain from gynecologic cancer

Tumor growth in the pelvis with nerve involvement causes severe pain which is notoriously resistant to pharmacological treatment. Chordotomy is a classical method for the relief of pain. This is a retrospective study of 24 chordotomy cases, operated on at the department of Neurosurgery, and independently evaluated at the department of Gynecologic Oncology. Initially 19 patients (79%) were painfree

Conceptualising dimensions of bibliometric assessment: From resource allocation systems to evaluative landscapes

The purpose of this paper is to discuss the conceptualisation of bibliometric analyses in terms of the levels on which they are performed, adding contextual factors to the dimension where the size of the unit being analysed is considered. Based on empirical investigations of resource allocation systems and research evaluation practices, as well as the previous literature conceptualising bibliometr
