Background: This population-based study investigated the different forms, magnitude and risk factors of men's violence against women in intimate relationships in a rural part of northern Vietnam and whether a difference in risk factors were at hand for the different forms of violence. Vietnam has undergone a rapid transition in the last 20 years, moving towards a more equal situation for men and w

Peak aerobic power in humans ((V) over dot(O2), peak) is markedly affected by inspired O-2 tension (F-IO2). The question to be answered in this study is what factor plays a major role in the limitation of muscle peak. (V) over dot(O2) in hypoxia: arterial O-2 partial pressure (P-a,(O2)) or O-2 content (C-a,C-O2)? Thus, cardiac output (dye dilution with Cardio-green), leg blood flow (thermodilution

Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: Småvatten är en svacka eller hålighet som är vattenfylld året om. Dessa småvatten fyller många viktiga funktioner i naturen. De fungerar som utjämnare av flödesvariationer, uppehållsplats och födoplats för många djur och växter och som rena estetiska inslag i naturen, och inte minst som reningsplatser för oönskade näringsämnen så som kväve. Dessa småvatten har iWetlands play an important role in the ecosystem. They reduce the impact of flow flux in the drainage area, acts as upholder of biodiversity, as an esthetic and recreational component in the landscape and they have the ability to reduce nutrients such as nitrogen, and help preventing eutrophication in costal areas. The number of wetlands in Scania have, due to the intensified agriculture been redu

MAX-lab is a national synchrotron radiation facility in Lund. Nowadays, the MAX project consist of three facilities (three storage rings). A new storage ring is needed to improve material science, such as nanotechnology. MAX IV, also in Lund, will be 100 times more efficient than already existing synchrotron radiation facilities. The storage ring is controlled by a large number of magnets that are

Background Frigoscandia Logistics AB, FSL, was founded in 1997 as a Fourth Party Logistics provider, 4PL, with the purpose to supply temperature-controlled food and other goods to customers world wide. The main purpose is to provide a complete logistics service package including physical, administrative as well as financial flows. Moreover FSL takes the ownership of the products, which is unique.

Objective: To facilitate a greater likelihood of favorable response to new disease-modifying therapies, recruitment of patients at an earlier stage of their disease into clinical trials may be an attractive strategy. Hence, there is a need to develop widely accepted classification criteria for early-stage knee osteoarthritis (OA). We have proposed a set of classification criteria for early-stage k

Importance: Although tramadol is increasingly used to manage chronic noncancer pain, few safety studies have compared it with other opioids. Objective: To assess the associations of tramadol, compared with codeine, with mortality and other adverse clinical outcomes as used in outpatient settings. Design, Setting, and Participants: Retrospective, population-based, propensity score-matched cohort st

Importance: Supplementing preterm infants with long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFA) has been inconsistent in reducing the severity and incidence of retinopathy of prematurity (ROP). Furthermore, few studies have measured the long-term serum lipid levels after supplementation. Objective: To assess whether ROP severity is associated with serum levels of LC-PUFA, especially docosahexaenoi

Background: An anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture results in an increased risk of developing knee osteoarthritis (OA) at an early age. Before clinical signs become apparent, the OA process has already been initiated. Therefore, it is important to look at the cascade of changes, such as the activity of cytokines and proteases, which might be associated with the later development of OA. Purpos

PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S): Studies of electron FLASH radiotherapy (FLASH-RT) in companion animals are being conducted at several institutions. High energy electron beams are generally suitable for treatment of superficial cancers, but of limited use for deep-seated tumors. In this case report, the feasibility of intracavitary electron FLASH-RT is demonstrated.MATERIALS/METHODS: A canine cancer patient

Uppsatsen undersöker om Högsta domstolen (HD), genom att frångå lagstiftarens intentioner avseende vad som ska utgöra normalstraffet för mord, har överskridit sina befogenheter enligt regeringsformen (RF). Med normalstraff avses det straff domstolarna utgår ifrån när det bestämmer straffvärdet. I Sverige utgår all offentlig makt från folket, vilket betecknas som folksuveränitetsprincipen. Det voThe paper examines if the Supreme Court, by not following the legislator´s intentions regarding what the normal penalty for murder should be, has exceeded its powers under the Instrument of Government. Normal penalty refers to the penalty that the courts proceed from when deciding the penal value. The public power in Sweden proceeds from the people. It would be difficult to implement that the pe

De senaste åren har beskattning av den digitala ekonomin hamnat i focus. Det har gett upphov till att bl.a. OECD och EU har kommit med förslag på hur man ska kunna lösa detta dilemma. Traditionellt blir ett företag beskattat i den stat där detta har hemvist eller i den stat där företaget har ett fast driftställe för vilket det är angivet flera olika anknytningspunkter. Dessa anknytningsfaktorer byIn the last couple of years, taxation of the digital economy has become a subject that is on everybody’s mind. This has given rise to attempts from OECD and EU, amongst others, to solve this dilemma. For a company to be taxed in a state it must be a resident in that state or be attributed a permanent establishment that requires that the company has a physical presence in the state. This makes taxi

This scientific report has mainly studied the concept of Industry 4.0 and the possibility to send data from a temperature sensor to the cloud, a process which is an example of the term Internet of Things. The study has been conducted for the consultant business Rejlers to give the CEO as well as the Technical Manager a broader view of how they could implement IoT on behalf of costumers in the futu

Under de senaste årtiondena har det i norra Europa och Nordamerika rapporterats om att sjöar och vattendrag blir allt brunare. Den bruna färgen kommer från naturligt organiskt material (NOM), vilket är material från döda djur och växtdelar, som transporterats med vattnet från intilliggande skog och mark. Denna ”brunifiering”, som den också kallas, tros bland annat kunna vara ett resultat av de pågDuring the last decades, increased concentrations of natural organic matter (NOM) and colour of surface waters have been reported from northern Europe and North America. Since surface waters are widely used for drinking water production this development has been problematic for drinking water producers. Even though NOM in itself is not harmful, it can cause production of undesirable disinfection b

In an urbanizing world, challenged by climate change and rising temperatures, street vegetation can help mitigate urban temperatures. However, scaling the understanding of street vegetation’s cooling effects from local observations to the city level introduces challenges. While several studies have assessed the influence of street greenery on land surface temperature (LST) at the city scale using

The release of carbon dioxide (CO2) from inland waters plays an important role in the global carbon cycle. Yet, there are uncertainties related to estimating riverine CO2 evasion (FCO2), especially in data scarce regions such as the Tibetan Plateau. It is unclear how global change in the form of climate warming and anthropogenic disturbance affects emissions. This study reports annual CO2 fluxes a
