Aim Heritability of cough has not yet been studied. We aimed to evaluate if individuals with cough are more likely to have offspring who develop cough, and if these associations differ by type of cough (productive/nonproductive). Methods The RHINESSA ...
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a debilitating neurodegenerative disorder and its rising global incidence highlights the need for the identification of modifiable risk factors. In a gene-based burden test of rare variants (8647 PD cases and 777,693 controls) ...

Data concerning number of nematodes (Pseudoterranova decipiens and Anisakis simplex) in cod were analysed. The data were collected in the project Processing forecast of cod, from 2001-2005. Results indicate a considerable spatial, but less seasonal, ...
Drying is an ancient method for preservation of foods, the main purpose of which is to prolong the preservation time. In order to dry food, an external source of energy is needed to extract water from it. The use of geothermal energy in fish processing ...
The presentation is on results of an evaluation study on the implementation of tablets (1:1 learning) in an Icelandic school district with 9 schools 2015–2021. The main aim was to study effects of tablet use on personalisation of learning, students' ...
Digital citizenship has been regarded as highly important focus area of education for young people (see e.g. http://www.eun.org/focus-areas) who have constant online access through digital tools including tablets and smartphones. The concept digital ...
Hereditary cystatin C amyloid angiopathy (HCCAA) is an Icelandic disease that belongs to a disease class called cerebral amyloid angiopathy, a group of heterogenous diseases presenting with aggregation of amyloid complexes and deposition predominantly ...
The mild hypothermia response (MHR) maintains organismal homeostasis during cold exposure and is thought to be critical for the neuroprotection documented with therapeutic hypothermia. To date, little is known about the transcriptional regulation of ...
Autoimmune thyroid disease (AITD) is a common autoimmune disease. In a GWAS meta-analysis of 110,945 cases and 1,084,290 controls, 290 sequence variants at 225 loci are associated with AITD. Of these variants, 115 are previously unreported. Multiomics ...
Objective: Vascular surgery registries report on procedures and outcomes to promote patient safety and drive quality improvement. International registries have contributed significantly to the VASCUNET collaborative abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) ...
Background: Premenstrual disorders (PMDs) affect women's quality of life, yet the impact on romantic relationships remains unclear. This study aimed to examine the association between severe PMDs and relationship disruption and initiation. Methods: We ...

The potential for manipulating characteristics of skyrmions in a CrI3 monolayer using circularly polarised light is explored. The effective skyrmion-light interaction is mediated by bright excitons whose magnetization is selectively influenced by the ...
Background: Prolonged exposure to air pollution has been linked to adverse respiratory health, yet the evidence concerning its association with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is inconsistent. The evidence of a greenness effect on chronic ...
The spectral boundary integral (SBI) method has been widely employed in the study of fractures and friction within elastic and elastodynamic media, given its natural applicability to thin or infinitesimal interfaces. Many such interfaces and layers are ...
Pyrolysis is a technology capable of harnessing energy from challenging-to-recycle plastics, thus mitigating the necessity for incineration or landfill disposal. To optimize the plastic pyrolysis process, reliable models for product yield prediction ...
Purpose: To document the trajectory of early childhood stuttering longitudinally for 14. years with a consideration on the features of overt and covert stuttering related to recovery status. Method: Thirty-eight participants were observed longitudinally ...
When someone violates a social norm, others may think that some sanction would be appropriate. We examine how the experience of emotions like anger and disgust relate to the judged appropriateness of sanctions, in a pre-registered analysis of data from ...
