Archaeological collections are crucial in heritage studies and are used every day for training archaeologists and cultural heritage specialists. The recent developments in 3D acquisition and visualization technology has contributed to the rapid emergence of a large number of 3D collections, whose production is often justified as the democratization of data and knowledge production. Despite the fac
OBJECTIVE: Assess the quality of healthcare across African countries based on health providers' clinical knowledge, their clinic attendance and drug availability, with a focus on seven conditions accounting for a large share of child and maternal mortality in sub-Saharan Africa: malaria, tuberculosis, diarrhoea, pneumonia, diabetes, neonatal asphyxia and postpartum haemorrhage.METHODS: With nation
Objectives: To describe the clinical and ultrasound characteristics of adnexal torsion. Methods: This was a retrospective study. From the operative records of the eight participating gynecological ultrasound centers, we identified patients with a surgically confirmed diagnosis of adnexal torsion, defined as surgical evidence of ovarian pedicle, paraovarian cyst and/or Fallopian tube twisted on its
Mistletoes (Viscum) and close relatives are unique among flowering plants in having a drastically altered electron transport chain. Lack of complex I genes has previously been reported for the mitochondrial genome, and here we report an almost complete absence of nuclear-encoded complex I genes in the transcriptome of Viscum album. Compared to Arabidopsis with approximately 40 nuclear complex I ge
BACKGROUND: Food biodiversity, encompassing the variety of plants, animals, and other organisms consumed as food and drink, has intrinsic potential to underpin diverse, nutritious diets and improve Earth system resilience. Dietary species richness (DSR), which is recommended as a crosscutting measure of food biodiversity, has been positively associated with the micronutrient adequacy of diets in w
Protein HC, an extremely charge-heterogeneous lipocalin, carries a yellow-brown fluorescent chromophore of unknown structure covalently bound at an unidentified site of its polypeptide chain. Two chromophore-carrying peptides with 60% of the chromophore material (defined as material absorbing light at 330 nm) were isolated from pepsin-digested native human protein HC by reversed-phase high perform
Brain diseases’ despair “Please save my grandma!” A rather saddening expression to hear is it not? This is a sentence that not a lot of people say every day, maybe once or twice in one’s lifetime for most of us. Imagine this, your beloved grandma who has been by your side ever since you were born suddenly becomes senile. Her memory gets worse by the day and before you even know it, she does not r
When choosing topic for my project I felt the urge to work threedimensionally and develop shapes with my hands. Before starting the industrial design education I had taken some classes in ceramics and now I wanted to integrate ceramics in my design work. My project developed into exploring ceramics and to use its properties in a favourable way in a sustainable product. Flexibility in both form
Sotpartiklar från båtar leder till förtida dödsfall, Men hur stort är egentligen utsläppet? Emissioner av partiklar från båtar leder till 50 000 förtida dödsfall per år i Europa. Vid inandning leder det även till en ökad risk för luftvägssjukdomar, hjärt- kärlsjukdomar, samt allergier. Skeppsemissioner påverkar även klimat och miljö på olika vis, både positiva och negativa. Den största boven i deEmissions of air pollutants from shipping in Europe result in about 50 000 premature deaths every year. Soot particles, also called black carbon, are particularly hazardous to human health when inhaled. The adverse health effects are especially a danger in coastal areas, but the particles can travel further away with the wind. These soot particles also have an effect on the climate. Fresh soot par
The purpose of this study is an understanding of operator work in a production line and its connection and translation into simulation. A mapping of operator work in the production line was performed, after which tasks and were analysed for their relevance for simulation. A model draft was developed in the software FlexSim. The mapping and the derived model provides insight into operator work in t
Tidigare studier har visat på att de geofysiska metoderna elektrisk resistivitet tomografi (ERT) och tidsdomän inducerad polarisation (IP) är användbara verktyg för att detektera non-aqueous phase liquids (NAPL). Rapsolja, som är en hydrofob organisk förening med lägre densitet än vatten, har använts i ett laboratorie-försök för att utvärdera användbarheten av ERT och IP för att detektera spridninPrevious studies have shown that the geophysical methods electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) and time domain induced polarization (IP) are appropriate tools to detect non-aqueous phase liquids (NAPL). Rapeseed oil, hydrophobic organic compound with a lower density than water, was used in a laboratory experiment to evalu-ate the usefulness of ERT and IP to detect NAPL-contaminants in the enviro
Landskrona has for a long time had problems with high concentrations of Pb and other heavy metals in the air. Measurements investigating the content of airborne particles have been performed in 1977, 1988, 2003 and 2008 and show an influence from heavy industries, traffic in town and transboundary pollution. To investigate the air quality in terms of heavy metals in Landskrona today, the metal con
ABSTRACT Are ground reaction forces and frontal plane knee kinematics during sit-to-stand and stand-to-sit movements related to knee pain and function in people with unilateral knee osteoarthritis? - A pilot study Keywords Knee Osteoarthritis, Ground Reaction Force, Varus-Valgus Range Of Motion, Function In ADL, Pain Background Movement characteristics and their relationship with individual experi
The Nuremberg Charter introduced corporate criminal liability into international law and the great American Chief Prosecutor Justice Robert Jackson gave a promise that any legal person who commits crimes prescribed by international law shall be prosecuted and punished according to international criminal law. However, during this period of time, a corporation was never prosecuted per se as the sitt
Ställningsfullmakt är en viktig fullmakt som kommer till uttryck i 10 § andra stycket avtalslagen. Enligt regeln kan en person vara behörig att företa rättshandlingar för huvudmannens räkning på grund av att fullmäktige intagit en viss ställning genom avtal med huvudmannen. Exempelvis är ett butiksbiträde genom sin anställning behörig att motta betalning från butikens kunder för butikägarens räkniImplied authority is an important form of power of attorney that is expressed in the 10 §, second paragraph, Contract Act. According to this law, a person (the agent) can have the authority to perform legal transactions on behalf of an organization through his position in the company. For example, a store clerk is through his employment authorized to receive payment from clients on behalf of the s
Wine production has been demonstrated to negatively impact on the environment in a number of ways, threatening the well being of ecosystems and a sustainable future of the industry. With a general need for reducing environmental impacts; optimization of water resources has been identified the most critical environmental aspect in relation to wine production. Yet, several studies point towards inef
Diel vertical migration (DVM) is performed by various zooplankton taxa. The general movement pattern of DVM has been well studied while the possible clonal differences of this movement largely remain unknown. My master thesis focus on investigating the effects of environmental stressors on Daphnia magna strains isolated from natural populations. Here I maintained 11 strains of Daphnia magna origin
We are living in an age of information in which organizations are crumbling under the pressure of exponentially growing data. Increased data quality ensures better decision making, thereby enabling companies to stay competitive in the market. To improve data quality, it is imperative to identify all the characteristics that describe data. And, building on one characteristic results in compromising
