In a recent population-based study, an elevated risk of the Metabolic syndrome (MetS) and type 2 diabetes was found in childless men compared to those who have fathered one or more children. Therefore, by using a larger cohort of more than 22 000 men from the Malmo Preventive Project (MPP) we aimed to expand our observations in order to evaluate the metabolic profile of childless men and to evalua

This piece considers how we can think critically around prenatal sex selection and the problem of ‘missing girls’ and devise strategies to address this phenomenon without risk of harming the rights and interests of girls and women. To address the problem of ‘missing girls’ our research findings suggest there is a need to move beyond a rights-based approach towards gender and reproductive justice,

Group exhibition. Participated with the work Trembling Time (2001).The Orangerie presents a collection of video works that fuse documentary and fiction in an attempt to observe and understand complex entanglements. Emerging from sedimented political and social environments, the artists explore various image-making tools to break through the seen world. Appearing along a circular path in Grüneburgp

Dr Lisbeth NilssonLearning objectives:1. Discover how and why technology can enable non-mobile infants and children in developing tool-use and participation with the world.2. Explain how and why experiences of self-produced movement in a powered device can impact on very young infants’ overall development3. Motivate provision of opportunities to explore and experience powered mobility to very youn

It is shown that the band crossings observed at frequencies ≈h{stroke};hω ≈ 0.5 MeV can be qualitatively explained from Nilsson-Strutinsky calculations with no pairing correlations. The crossing bands are characterized by a different number of protons in h 11 2 orbitals leading to different deformationtrajectories in the (∋, γ)-plane. Above the band crossings, the calculated transition energies co

The non-collective and collective high-spin configurations in selected A ∼ 90 (Z = 42-45, N = 46-49) nuclei are analysed within the configuration-dependent shell-correction approach using the cranked Nilsson potential. With this method, various high-spin features, such as shape coexistence, shape changes, band termination and superdeformation are studied along the yrast line. We concentrate on the

Understanding the coupling of nitrogen (N) and carbon (C) cycles of land ecosystems requires understanding microbial element use efficiencies of soil organic matter (SOM) decomposition. Whereas important controls of those efficiencies by microbial community adaptations have been shown at the scale of a soil pore, a simplified representation of those controls is needed at the ecosystem scale. Howev

Surgical approach with reduction pulmonary artery plasty and valved conduit in patients with respiratory compromise prior to repair is associated with excellent long-term survival at the cost of a higher reintervention rate. OBJECTIVES: Absent pulmonary valve syndrome is a rare congenital heart defect with pulmonary artery dilatation and secondary airway compression. Although preoperative respirat
