Background: Acromioclavicular joint (ACJ) dislocations are common and frequently affecting young adults injured during sports. The Rockwood classification system is used to grade the dislocations according to the extent of injury to the soft tissues stabilizing the joint. Rockwood type 1 and 2 are not proper dislocations but partial ligamentous injuries without complete ACJ separation and regarded
Heavy metal pollution from untreated industrial wastewater has become a major concern to the environment and public health in many rapidly growing cities in low-income countries. Previous studies on heavy metals of urban wastewater systems have focused on long-term (weekly or seasonal) variations, while only few studies investigated short-term (daily) variation to capture potential bulk discharges
The Kimbanguists, whose church is based on the healing and proclamation ministry of Simon Kimbangu in 1921 in the Belgian Congo, challenge colonially defined borders and identities in multiple ways. Anticolonialism is in the DNA of Kimbanguism, yet in a manner that contests the colonially inherited dichotomy between religion and politics. Kimbanguists draw from holistic Kongo traditions, where the
Brazil had a significant quantitative housing deficit of 7.7 million residences in 2015, especially in low-income housing. Traditionally, these projects have low levels of thermal insulation which can result in discomfort caused by warmth or cold. The residential sector is responsible for a significant part of the energy use in Brazil. A green roof, a rooftop system with the addition of vegetation
The power of the informal settlements– The case of Dar es SalaamMaria Isabel RasmussenHousing Development & Management – HDMLund University, Swedenmaria.rasmussen@hdm.lth.seAbstractThis paper discusses the importance of the maps in urban planning and the consequences for the cities planned within a non existence of maps context, when the power decision is derived to the dwellers. Although map
The translational mobility of aggregates formed in aqueous sodium cholate solutions was obtained from the self-diffusion coefficient of solubilized decanol, which was determined using the capillary tube method with radioactive labeling. Combining these results with the self-diffusion coefficients of cholate ions, sodium ions, and water molecules the following quantities were determined as a functi
The background to this thesis is the fact that high temperature during transport and storage, degrade the glucose of peritoneal dialysis fluid (PD-fluid), into a toxic substance. Research at Gambro has shown that exposure to high temperatures can destroy the PD-fluid in just a few hours, requiring months to repair. With this knowledge it became important to monitor the temperature, and evaluate wh
The meaning of the concept of psychosocial treatment is ambiguous. The purpose of this study was to examine how professionals within some care institutions, which provide methadone, buprenorphine or naloxone treatment, regard and carry out the psychosocial features of such treatment. Central issues discussed were; how personnel approach the psychosocial features of the treatment, what personnel re
Using the excess energy of charge carriers excited above the band edge (hot carriers) could pave the way for optoelectronic devices, such as photovoltaics exceeding the Shockley-Queisser limit or ultrafast photodetectors. Semiconducting nanowires show promise as a platform for hot-carrier extraction. Proof of principle photovoltaic devices have already been realized based on InAs nanowires, using
In this work we have critically reviewed the processes in high-temperature sublimation growth of graphene in Ar atmosphere using closed graphite crucible. Special focus is put on buffer layer formation and free charge carrier properties of monolayer graphene and quasi-freestanding monolayer graphene on 4H–SiC. We show that by introducing Ar at higher temperatures, TAr, one can shift the formation
This paper enlightens enhanced mobility and the ongoing changes in collaboration forms. It reports on studies of communication and co-ordination in a work setting, including discussing the implications of the observations for enhancing mobility in co-operational work. In the analysis this paper use a framework developed by Lyytinen and Yoo (2001), in order to analyse a heterogeneous interconnected
My first encounter with a begging person led me to spend five years investigating the new situation regarding begging and giving in Sweden. The premise is that every-day actions and reactions to another person can be made visible through aesthetics with ethical underpinnings. My investigation takes place mainly in the urban landscape and in the media. The images always constitute the point of depa
Product innovation in highly complex and technological areas, such as medical technology, puts high requirements on innovation capability of an organization. Previous research and publications have highlighted organizational issues and learning matters as important and necessary for the development of innovation capability. Action learning require reflections of the ways things are carried out, ch
Cities divided by violent conflict, such as Mostar, Beirut and Nicosia, have proved remarkably resistant to peacebuilding efforts aimed at reconstruction, reintegration and reconciliation. Such cities tend to freeze the conflict, as it remains divided regardless of a conflict settlement. Contested cities therefore become symbols of the continuities rather than discontinuities between war and peace
FTIR smog chamber techniques were used to study the kinetics of the gas-phase reactions of Cl atoms, OD radicals, and O3 with the five-membered ring-structured compounds tetrahydrofuran (C4H8O, THF), 2-methyltetrahydrofuran (CH3C4H7O, 2-MTHF), 2,5-dimethyltetrahydrofuran ((CH3)2C4H5O, 2,5-DMTHF), and furan (C4H4O). The rate coefficients determined using relative rate methods were kTHF+Cl = (1.96 ±
Transcription of the first episode Rebecca: This is season one, episode one, of the Meridian, our brand new podcast. We are coming to you on September 24th 2021 from Lund Observatory, as we are celebrating the Astronomy Day and Night here in Sweden.

BakgrundEn analys från Øresundsinstituttet, från april 2024, visar att andelen unga Öresundspendlare minskat från 16,7 procent under 2007 till 5,4 procent under 2021 för att under 2022 öka till 6,5 procent. Detta trots att det råder stor brist på arbetskraft främst på den danska sidan. Befolkningsprognoser visar att arbetskraften i Östdanmark förväntas minska med ca 3 500 personer per år under det

Våren 2023 erhöll Daniel en kandidatexamen i systemvetenskap från Institutionen för informatik vid Lunds universitet. Vi intervjuade honom under 2024 om hans framgångar på arbetsmarknaden.In Spring 2023, Daniel graduated with a bachelor's degree in information systems from the Department of Informatics at Lund University. We interviewed him about his successes in the labour market.
