Agenda 2030 Graduate School monthly newsletter #6 2023-09-11 Ylva van Meeningen Hi! There is a feeling of change in the air. Not just because autumn is fast approaching, but a lot seem to be happening locally and globally. In our own little bubble, there will be a change in the graduate school office. In a bigger context the United Nations will convene in one week’s time where the leaders of the w

En fastighetsaffär är för många privatpersoner den överlägset största affären de gör i hela livet. Varje år säljs och köps småhus för över 124 miljarder. En undersökning från Länsförsäkringar visar att en tredjedel av alla köpare oroar sig för förekomsten av ”dolda fel” i den köpta fastigheten. Mot bakgrund av den oron är det inte så konstigt att konsumentrådgivningar och liknande organisationer fA real estate transaction is for many individuals by far the largest transaction they make throughout life. Each year, sold and bought houses makes up for a value of more than 124 billion SEK. A survey, by the insurance company Länsförsäkringar, shows that one third of all buyers are concerned about the existence of "latent defects" in the purchased property. Given the turmoil, it is not
The purpose of this practical theological master’s thesis is to examine conversation as part of sermon preparation in present day preaching in the Lutheran Church of Sweden. This study combines studies of homiletical literature with qualitative empirical methods, stating that theory and practice informs one another. Through participant observation in Bible study groups and the following Sunday’s s
Den svenska arbetsmarknaden genomgår strukturella förändringar i takt med den tekniska och demografiska utvecklingen. Nya kvalifikationskrav uppkommer ständigt och behovet av kompetensutveckling ökar. Tillgången till högkvalificerad arbetskraft framstår som alltmer avgörande för arbetsgivarens konkurrensförmåga. Att besitta rätt kompetens är samtidigt av betydande vikt för den enskilde arbetstagarThe Swedish labour market is undergoing structural changes as a result of technological and demographic developments. New skill requirements are constantly emerging and the demand for skills development is increasing. The supply of highly skilled labour is becoming increasingly crucial for the competitiveness of the employer. Possessing the right skills is at the same time of significant importanc
Objective. To compare the effects of a restrictive versus a liberal fluid prescription, on quality of life, physical capacity, thirst and hospital admissions, in patients who had improved from NYHA class (III-)IV CHF to a stable condition without clinical signs of significant fluid overload. Design. The present study is a randomised cross-over study. Seventy-four patients (mean age 70 +/- 10 years
Background : Currently, antiretroviral therapy (ART) is recommended for all HIV-positive patients with tuberculosis (TB). The timing of ART during the course of anti-TB treatment is based on CD4 cell counts. Access to CD4 cell testing is not universally available; this constitutes an obstacle for the provision of ART in low-income countries. Objective : To determine clinical variables associated w
A search is presented for the direct pair production of a chargino and a neutralino [Formula: see text], where the chargino decays to the lightest neutralino and the [Formula: see text] boson, [Formula: see text], while the neutralino decays to the lightest neutralino and the 125 GeV Higgs boson, [Formula: see text]. The final states considered for the search have large missing transverse momentum
Objective Hand Mobility in Scleroderma (HAMIS) is a new hand function test developed for adults who have systemic sclerosis. HAMIS consists of 9 items designed to measure all movements assessed in an ordinary range of motion (ROM)-measured hand test. The aim of this study was to examine the reliability of the test. Methods Two observers (one occupational therapist and one physiotherapist) perform
Den tekniska utvecklingen har ändrat hur människor kommunicerar med och om varandra. Den har också fört med sig nya former av övergrepp, däribland så kallade bildbaserade sexuella övergrepp. Begreppet bildbaserade sexuella övergrepp innefattar alla former av framställande och/eller spridande av privata, sexuella bilder utan samtycke från den avbildade. Exempel på sådana övergrepp är ”hämndporr”, sTechnological developments have changed the way people communicate with and about each other. It has also brought with it new forms of abuse, including so-called image-based sexual abuse. Image-based sexual abuse includes all forms of creation and / or distribution of private, sexual images without the consent of the person depicted. Examples of such abuse is “revenge porn”, stealth photography, u

Recent advances in cell based therapies for lung diseases and critical illnesses offer significant promise. Despite encouraging preclinical results, the translation of efficacy to the clinical settings have not been successful. One of the possible reasons for this is the lack of understanding of the complex interaction between mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) and the host environment. Other challe
A search for heavy resonances decaying into a W or Z boson and a Higgs boson produced in proton-proton collisions at the Large Hadron Collider at s=13 TeV is presented. The analysis utilizes the dominant W→qq¯′ or Z→qq¯ and H→bb¯ decays with substructure techniques applied to large-radius jets. A sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 139 fb-1 collected with the ATLAS detector is anal
Introduction: Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) provides detailed information about glucose level fluctuations over time. The method is increasingly being used in pregnant women with type 1 diabetes. However, only one previous study compared CGM results related to pregnancy outcomes in women using insulin pumps with those administering multiple daily injections (MDI). We performed a secondary an
Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors reduce the risk of hypoglycaemia, possibly through augmentation of glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) action, but not that of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) on glucagon secretion. To examine this model in Japanese individuals with type 2 diabetes (T2D), the effects of the DPP-4 inhibitor linagliptin on glucagon and other counter-regulatory
Background: Traumatic brain injuries continue to be a significant cause of mortality and morbidity worldwide. Most traumatic brain injuries are classified as mild, with a low but not negligible risk of intracranial hemorrhage. To help physicians decide which patients might benefit from a computerized tomography (CT) of the head to rule out intracranial hemorrhage, several clinical decision rules h
Introduction: Prehospital and hospital emergency care guidelines have been developed for patients with suspected hip fracture. Initial radiography can identify a number of patients with other injuries, generally pelvic fractures and hip contusions. Little is known about the prognosis for these patients. The aim of this study is twofold: i) to investigate the injury pattern of patients assessed in
