DebattTillgången till vatten kan inte längre ses som en lokal fråga utan måste ses ur ett bredare perspektiv, som kräver en samordning som är ny för Sverige. Det behövs sammanhängande nationell styrning och en strategi med helhetssyn på vattenfrågan, skriver nio svenska vattenexperter som kommer att debattera detta ämne under politikerveckan i Almedalen.
På senare år har flera studier visat på att järnhalten ökar i sjöar och vattendrag i norra Europa. Järn spelar en nyckelroll i akvatiska miljöer genom att påverka tillgängligheten av andra näringsämnen i vattnet så som kväve och fosfor, vilket kan reglera tillväxten av växtplankton. Dessutom färgar järn tillsammans med organiskt material vatten brunt. När vattnet blir brunare försämras ljusklimateIron (Fe) concentrations are increasing in freshwaters (lakes and streams) in Sweden, as well as in other regions in northern Europe. Together with increasing concentrations of organic matter, Fe is contributing to the ongoing browning of freshwaters, which may have serious ecological consequences and implications for ecosystem services. The aim of this thesis was to investigated where, to what ex

Hjärt-kärlsjukdom är den vanligaste dödsorsaken i världen. Tidig diagnos och individanpassad vård är viktigt för att kunna behandla hjärtsjuka patienter. Ny teknik kan möjliggöra framtagandet av nya och förbättrade underlag som behövs för diagnos och behandlingsplan av många hjärtsjuka patienter. Därför har nya analysverktyg som utökar mängden fysiologisk information som går att utvinna ur en endaThe assessment of cardiovascular physiology is crucial to facilitate clinical diagnostics, treatment, and research. Physiology and anatomy can be assessed noninvasively using cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR), a versatile and reliable medical imaging modality free from ionizing radiation. CMR is capable of providing a vast amount of information such as displacement, velocity, flow, length, a
Since its establishment in 1953, the Roman Catholic Diocese of Stockholm has been growing at a fast pace, both due to migration and, to a minor extent, conversions. During that time its position has strengthened significantly, wearing off the historical resentments and becoming a significant interfaith agent. It also became an important periphery in Pope Francis' vision of the Church, which found
Background: The STarT Back Screening Tool (SBT) identifies patients with low back pain (LBP) at risk of a worse prognosis of persistent disabling back pain, and thereby facilitates triage to appropriate treatment level. However, the SBT does not consider the pain distribution, which is a known predictor of chronic widespread pain (CWP). The aim of this study was to determine if screening by the SB
OBJECTIVE: To apply the ATN scheme to memory clinic patients, to assess whether it discriminates patient populations with specific features. METHODS: We included 305 memory clinic patients (33% subjective cognitive decline [SCD]: 60 ± 9 years, 61% M; 19% mild cognitive impairment [MCI]: 68 ± 9 years, 68% M; 48% dementia: 66 ± 10 years, 58% M) classified for positivity (±) of amyloid (A) ([18F]Flor
Aim: Childhood cancer patients are subjected to recurring painful medical procedures. In low- and middle-income countries (LMIC), where the majority of the world's childhood cancer patients live, pain management is often unsatisfactory due to limited resources. This study aimed to evaluate the possibility of conducting a preprocedural preparation for lumbar punctures (LPs) at a pediatric oncology
Med cementbundna materials fuktegenskaper menas hur de binder och transporterar vatten. Känner man fuktegenskaper kan man räkna ut hur exempelvis en betong torkar. Mätning av fuktegenskaper för cementbundna material är något Avd. Byggnadsmaterial i Lund har stor erfarenhet av, särskilt för material med Portlandcement som bindemedel [1] [2]. På senare år har forskning vid avdelningen också visat hu
Neuroblastoma is a childhood malignancy of the sympathetic nervous system and accounts for 15% of all cancer-related deaths in children. To understand the biology behind neuroblastoma, clarify timing of cellular events and expression profiles of proteins preceding neuroblastoma initiation, we need more relevant preclinical models.In the first part of this thesis, we established two preclinical in
Across today’s developed world, there is a clear mortality gradient by socioeconomic status at all ages. It is often taken for granted that this gradient was as strong, or even stronger, in the past, when social transfers were rudimentary and health-care systems less developed. While some studies based on cross-sectional data support this view, others based on longitudinal data find that this was Across today’s developed world, there is a clear mortality gradient by socioeconomic status for all ages.

Anaplastic thyroid cancer (ATC) is a rare and highly aggressive thyroid malignancy, usually resistant to conventional therapeutic strategies. The prognosis of ATC is extremely poor with a median survival rate of 6 months. Current treatment therapy includes surgical resection in combination with external radiotherapy and chemotherapy. The underlying mechanisms involved in ATC tumorigenesis is under
The incidence of narcolepsy type 1 (NT1) increased in Sweden following the 2009-2010 mass-vaccination with the influenza Pandemrix-vaccine. NT1 has been associated with Human leukocyte antigen (HLA) DQB1*06:02 but full high-resolution HLA-typing of all loci in vaccine-induced NT1 remains to be done. Therefore, here we performed HLA typing by sequencing HLA-DRB3, DRB4, DRB5, DRB1, DQA1, DQB1, DPA1
