Goda kamrater, ett antal buteljer punsch, en droska, och en likkista av barnmodell – vad är det värsta som kan hända? I lundastudenten Carl Lindells fall slutade det riktigt illa, med både tidningsskriverier och rektorsförhör. Arkivarien vid universitetsarkivet Henrik Ullstad berättar historien om en Malmöutflykt på 1880-talet som tog en ände med förskräckelse.Good companions, numerous bottles of punsch, a carriage and a child-sized coffin – what could possibly go wrong? In the case of Lund student Carl Lindell, it all went horribly wrong, with stories in the newspapers and being taken before the vice-chancellor. University Library archivist, Henrik Ullstad, tells the story of a Malmö excursion in the 1880s that came to an alarming end.

INTRODUCTION: Rapid response teams (RRTs) are designed to improve the "chain of prevention" of in-hospital cardiac arrest (IHCA). We studied the 30-day survival of patients reviewed by RRTs within 24 hours prior to IHCA, as compared to patients not reviewed by RRTs.METHODS: A nationwide cohort study based on the Swedish Registry of Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation, between January 1st, 2014, and Dece

Pandemin med Covid-19 har slagit hårt mot många branscher. För att mildra skadeverkningarna infördes stödåtgärder i flera länder och så även i Sverige. I den här rapporten presenterar vi en genomgång av effekterna av pandemin för svensk fiskenäring. Vi undersöker också vilka stöd näringen har kunnat söka och i vilken mån stöden passar fiskenäringens struktur.Generellt sett hade svenskt yrkesfiske

Lilli Zickerman (1858–1949) was an entrepreneur who took part in organising the Swedish handicraft associations in the late 19th century. She was also a pioneer in the archives and active in the feminine sphere of textile handicraft. From 1914–1931 she conducted a huge inventory called Swedish Folk Textile Art that consists of more than 24,000 photographs and descriptions of vernacular textiles an

IntroductionLow serum selenium and altered tumour RNA expression of certain selenoproteins are associated with a poor breast cancer prognosis. Selenoprotein expression stringently depends on selenium availability, hence circulating selenium may interact with tumour selenoprotein expression. However, there is no matched analysis to date.MethodsThis study included 1453 patients with newly diagnosed

Communication between cells located in different parts of an organism is often mediated by membrane-enveloped nanoparticles, such as extracellular vesicles (EVs). EV binding and cell uptake mechanisms depend on the heterogeneous composition of the EV membrane. From a colloidal perspective, the EV membrane interacts with other biological interfaces via both specific and non-specific interactions, w

PURPOSETo assess interval cancer rate in a large, prospective digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) screening trial in comparison with a concurrent screening population and to assess tumor characteristics of interval cancers in DBT-screening.METHOD AND MATERIALSThe prospective ****Trial, comparing digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) with digital mammography (DM) in 14,848 women has shown a significant

This detailed volume presents a diverse set of methodological approaches designed to improve our understanding of bacterial infections from a wide range of bacterial species. Beginning with biofilms and subcellular compartments, the book explores transcriptional analysis, methods for studying plasmid dynamics, and tools for phylogenetic analysis of bacterial genomes, as well as bacterial effector

Buildings Post Corona is a Swedish collaborative research project between Chalmers, KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Lund, and Umeå Universities. The project supports the building sector in designing and maintaining sustainable buildings with a healthy and good indoor environment. The COVID-19 crisis has stressed the importance and urge of this research.The scope of the project is to develop a m

Buildings Post Corona is a Swedish collaborative research project between Chalmers, KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Lund, and Umeå Universities. The project intends to provide knowledge related to designing, maintaining and operating sustainable buildings with a healthy and good indoor environment.The project aims to contribute to the knowledge and processes needed for the construction and real

BACKGROUND: Retrospective studies have shown promising results using artificial intelligence (AI) to improve mammography screening accuracy and reduce screen-reading workload; however, to our knowledge, a randomised trial has not yet been conducted. We aimed to assess the clinical safety of an AI-supported screen-reading protocol compared with standard screen reading by radiologists following mamm

Background: Long-term consequences of posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) injury such as persistent posterior tibial translation and risk of osteoarthritis development are unclear. Additionally, little data is available describing the natural history of structural morphology of the ruptured PCL. The purpose of the study was to determine the long-term outcome after non-operatively treated PCL injury.

PURPOSE: Automated perimetry provides a standardized method of measuring the visual field. The Humphrey Field Analyser (HFA) uses the 24-2 test pattern to cover 24 degrees centrally or the 30-2 test pattern to cover a slightly broader region of 30 degrees. The aim of this study was to determine whether the 24-2 test pattern provides comparable information to the 30-2 test pattern in detecting visu

Background Epidemiological studies have shown that impaired lung function is common and associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease. Increased levels of several inflammatory and cardiovascular disease-related plasma proteins have been associated with impaired lung function. The aim was to study the association between plasma proteomics and forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1), force

Bone strength is an important contributor to fracture risk. Areal bone mineral density (aBMD) derived from dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is used as a surrogate for bone strength in fracture risk prediction tools. 3D finite element (FE) models predict bone strength better than aBMD, but their clinical use is limited by the need for 3D computed tomography and lack of automation. We have ear

In mitosis, transcription factors (TFs) and RNA polymerase disperse across the cytoplasm leading to transcriptional silencing, but some TFs are retained on condensed chromatin and mark genomic sites, a mechanism termed mitotic bookmarking. In pluripotent and differentiated cells this mechanism is important for pluripotency maintenance, cell reprogramming and lineage inheritance. However, the role

Children’s and young persons’ rights have received increasing been focus in recent decades, due in a significant degree to the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child. In Sweden, compulsory care in the social-services system is disputed, not least for the forceful measures that facility personnel have at their disposal to control children in certain conflict situations. The general aim of this ar
