Popular Abstract in Swedish De medeltida katedralerna har med sina imponerande stenfasader och höga torn fortsatt att fascinera människor genom århundradena, och silhuetterna utgör fortfarande ett framträdande landmärke för den som närmar sig stiftsstäderna. Även interiörerna vittnar om den medeltida prakten även om, i likhet med exteriörerna, mycket har förändrats och försvunnit sedan dess. Lika The purpose of this thesis is to study the function of the cathedral as a devotional milieu and try to recreate lay people´s visits using the keywords Places, Times, Objects and Motifs. Geographically the study is limited to two cathedrals in present-day Sweden: the ones in Linköping and Lund. In this way, cathedrals from two different ecclesiastical provinces (the archbishoprics of Uppsala and Lu

The purpose of this study was to examine how the personnel of the Employment Office in Malmoe interpret the emotional situation and health of unemployed individuals. We also wanted to examine if and how the personnel work with these aspects. In relation to this we found it very interesting how the personnel dealt with the responsibilities of power, hierarchy and how subordination afflicts the unem

FN-stadgan förhandlades fram, efter andra världskriget, i syfte att minimera risken för framtida krig och ställa all våldsanvändning under FN:s kontroll. Art 2.4 FN-stadgan förbjuder stater att bruka våld och art 51, rätten till självförsvar, är ett undantag från våldsförbudet. Tanken bakom undantaget är att garantera medlemsstaterna rätt till självförsvar om det uppstår en väpnad attack. Syftet

Bisphenol A (BPA) is an endocrine disruptor which is very present in our surrounding environment. As a component mainly used in plastics and in the inner linings in cans, BPA can also be found in our bodies due to migration into food. Once the substance is reaching the components of the body it is biotransformed into a more water soluble molecule called monoglucoronide. Whether to measure the unco

Kvarts är ett av de vanligaste mineralen i jordskorpan, både i sediment och i bergarter. Halten kvarts i sediment är intressant vid bedömning av bl.a. mognadsgraden. Ett sediments mognadsgrad kan användas vid tolkning av dess historia, vilket är till nytta vid t.ex. rekonstruktion av paleomiljöer. Geologiska institutionen vid Lunds universitet, har efterfrågat metoder för bedömning av kvartshaltenQuartz is one of the most common minerals on Earth and is found in both lose sediment, sedimentary rock and bedrock. The maturity grade of sediments can be determined by the amount of quartz it contains. This is used when interpreting the sediments’ geological history and reconstructing paleoenvironments. The purpose of this thesis is to analyze and develop methods for determining the quartz conte

Covalently anchored Ni(II)-C-protected amino acid (L-histidine, L-cysteine, and L-cystine) complexes inspired by the active site of the Ni-superoxide dismutase enzyme were synthesised using chloropropylated silica gel as support. The structural features of the surface complexes were studied by the Kjeldahl method and ICP-MS, mid/far IR, UV-vis diffuse reflectance, and X-ray absorption spectroscopi

Exacerbations are the key drivers in the costs of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The objective was to examine the costs of COPD exacerbations in relation to differing degrees of severity of exacerbations and of COPD. We identified 202 subjects with COPD, defined according to the BTS and ERS criteria. Exacerbations were divided into mild (self-managed), mild/moderate (telephone conta

INTRODUCTION: We have shown that low protein C levels predict poor survival up to five years in a general intensive care unit patient material and hypothesize that treatment with protein C is beneficial. The objectives were to calculate costs of protein C treatment, at best-case scenario, per statistical life saved. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Ninety-two patients with deranged global haemostatic tests

Heart fatty acid binding protein (HFABP) is expressed in the brain and is elevated in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) from patients with several forms of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease (AD), Parkinson's disease with dementia, Lewy body dementia, vascular dementia (VaD), and Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease. However, whether HFABP in CSF is a stable biomarker or if it can help predict co

In this study, Monte Carlo simulation of photon transport through sprays has been achieved using the online “Multi-Scattering” software. Such simulations were focused on evaluating the accuracy of light transmission measurement of four distinct methods using diffuse light illumination without filtering (1),collimated homogeneous laser beam without filtering (2), structured collimated laser beam wi

Autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) are known to be associated with an increased risk of aggression and challenging behavior. In this study, we have mapped the externalizing history of a nationally representative cohort of young violent offenders with ASD, compared with offenders without ASD. Two hundred and sixty-nine violent offenders were assessed for prevalence of ASD, and participated in a thoro

Background: Postprandial metabolomic profiles and their inter-individual variability are not well characterised. Here, we describe postprandial metabolite changes, their correlations with fasting values and their inter- and intra-individual variability, following a standardised meal in the ZOE PREDICT 1 cohort. Methods: In the ZOE PREDICT 1 study (n = 1002 (NCT03479866)), 250 metabolites, mainly l

Recycling polymers by site-specific scission into short-chain oligomers/polymers, followed by recoupling these to form the original polymer presents an energetically more favorable shorter-loop chemical recycling in comparison to recycling into monomers. Here, we present the synthesis and polymerization of triaromatic diesters to prepare polyesters with acylhydrazone units as weak structural links

Transmission problems and domain decompositions for non-autonomous parabolic equations on evolving domains Amal Alphonse, Ana Djurdjevac, Emil Engström, and Eskil Hansen Abstract. Parabolic equations on evolving domains model a multitude of applications including various industrial processes such as the molding of heated materials. Such equations are numerically challenging as they require large-s

BACKGROUND: Human glandular kallikrein 2 (hK2) is expressed in the prostate and is present in serum from men with prostate cancer. Specific detection in serum is difficult mainly because of low concentrations and immunological cross-reactivity with prostate-specific antigen (PSA). Our objectives were to design an assay with improved analytical detection and functional sensitivity and nonsignifican

Summary Objective Patients with suspicion of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) are difficult to diagnose and they represent a very heterogeneous group. Some require immediate treatment while others, with only minor disorders, may be sent home. Detecting ACS patients using a machine learning approach would be advantageous in many situations. Methods and materials Artificial neural network (ANN) ensem

This report contains papers presented at a Research Seminar , or rather "workshop", organised by our Department. It is the third in a series. The previous seminars were held in 1993 and 19961• The seminar is "Nordic", by which is meant that the speakers came from the Scandinavian countries -Demnark, Norway, Sweden- and Finland. Certainly there are other Nordic countries in which frost is a real pr
