När forskare blickar ut i universum ser de överallt spåren av en stor mängd osynlig massa. Massan finns där men det går inte att se den. Ungefär 80% av all massa i universum beräknas bestå av denna "mörka materia". Det är som att mänskligheten står på stranden och blickar ut över havet utan att veta vad vatten är. I partikelfysik studeras universums minsta beståndsdelar, elementarpartiklarna, för The high event rate delivered by the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) provides experiments with opportunities for new discoveries as well as challenges related to the large amounts of data recorded. Overcoming this requires innovative techniques in the three topics of this thesis: Data acquisition, data analysis, and data compression.In the data taking period of 2015-2018, the ATLAS experiment received

Background: Family is a crucial social institution in end-of-life care. Family caregivers are encouraged to take on more responsibility at different times during the illness, providing personal and medical care. Unpaid work can be overburdening, with women often spending more time in care work than men. Objectives: This study explored multiple views on the family’s role in end-of-life care from a

Background: Funding models influence provision and development of palliative care services. As palliative care integrates into mainstream health care provision, opportunities to develop funding mechanisms arise. However, little has been reported on what funding models exist or how we can learn from them. Aim: To assess national models and methods for financing and reimbursing palliative care. Desi

There is increased awareness of palliative care needs in people with COPD or interstitial lung disease (ILD). This European Respiratory Society (ERS) task force aimed to provide recommendations for initiation and integration of palliative care into the respiratory care of adult people with COPD or ILD. The ERS task force consisted of 20 members, including representatives of people with COPD or ILD

Twenty years after Vassar College welcomed the first American female undergraduates in 1865, the experiences of women college students began to be fictionalized in so-called college stories. This thesis shows how higher education is presented in the novels, collections of short stories, and serialized stories for female readers published before the United States was involved in the First World Wa

The density of roots is an important factor influencing the rate and magnitude of landslides. Due to the increased variability in climate, mainly rainfall, Eastern Uganda is severely struck by an increasing number of these mass movements, often with human casualties as one of the negative impacts. The aim of this study is to explore the possibility to estimate the depth and density of the root sys

Popular Abstract in Swedish Under de senaste åren har det svenska samhället förändrats när det gäller dess förhållande till religion och till Svenska kyrkan. Från att ha varit en statskyrka fram till år 2000 och därmed tidigare tillhört enhetskulturen och varit en majoritets kyrka, är Svenska kyrka idag en kyrka som är fri från staten och verkar i ett mångkulturellt samhälle där många olika kulturThe tradition for teenagers to participate in confirmation groups and be confirmed was formerly very strong in Sweden. Up to the 1970s, approximately 80-90 % of all young Swedes were confirmed. But in 2007, these courses were only attended by 37 %, according to the latest Church of Sweden statistics (Svenska kyrkan 2007a). The Aim of the thesis is: Using a Bildung perspective, the aim of the prese

Diffusion of medical technology and the growing proportion of elderly people in the population are generally regarded as major contributors to the increasing health care expenditure in the industrialised world. This study explores the importance of one specific factor in this process, the change in the use of technology among elderly patients. In some instances, a new technology is first used amon

Popular Abstract in Swedish Perifer kärlsjukdom (peripheral arterial disease) innebär ett tillstånd med nedsatt blodcirkulation i benen som huvudsakligen beror på åderförkalkning (ateroskleros). De kliniska manifestationerna av perifer kärlsjukdom är fönstertittarsjuka (claudicatio intermittens) och svår cirkulationsnedsättning (kritisk ischemi) beroende på om blodcirkulationen är otillräcklig vidPeripheral arterial disease (PAD) is the manifestation of atherosclerotic lesions in arteries supplying blood to the legs. Atherosclerosis is now recognized as an inflammatory disease of the vessel wall and important features in the pathophysiology are activation of WBC, endothelial cells and increased levels of inflammatory mediators. The inflammatory response in PAD is further influenced in case

Popular Abstract in Swedish Från 1865 och framåt öppnades i nordöstra U.S.A ett antal college där unga kvinnor kunde avlägga en icke yrkesinriktad akademisk examen. Efter några decennier använde några som utexaminerats från dessa institutioner sina erfarenheter i populära berättelser om studenter på college. Avhandlingen visar hur denna utbildning presenteras i skönlitterär form. Fokus ligger på Twenty years after Vassar College welcomed the first American female undergraduates in 1865, the experiences of women college students began to be fictionalized in so-called college stories.

Popular Abstract in Swedish Exponeringsskattning för att hindra uppkomst av belastningsskador Skador på muskler som uppkommer av olämpliga arbetsrörelser och arbetsställningar (belastningsskador) utgör ett stort problem i alla industrialiserade länder. Definitionen av vad som innefattas i begreppet arbetsskada varierar mellan olika länder, varför det är svårt att göra jämförelser. Kostnader för arWork-related musculoskeletal disorders of shoulder/neck are a major and increasing problem. Beside the pain, they involve high cost for the employer and society. The total expenditure for the musculoskeletal disorders of the neck and upper limb have been estimated to 0.5-2.0% of the Gross National Product (GNP) in the Nordic countries. Due to the lack of precise knowledge of exposure/response rela

Popular Abstract in Swedish Vid typ 1 diabetes har patienten ingen egen insulinproduktion, utan måste tillföra insulin via injektioner i underhudsfettet. Insulinbehovet är inte konstant, utan varierar beroende på olika faktorer, t.ex. fysisk aktivitet och födointag. Eftersom det är svårt att alltid rätt förutsäga vilken insulinmängd man behöver, varierar blodsockret (blodglukos) mer hos en insulinHypoglycaemia is an acute complication to insulin-treatment in type 1 diabetes mellitus, which affects many physiological parameters, deteriorates the cognitive function, and may lead to death. The aim of this thesis was to study nerve function, cognitive function and cerebral blood flow during and after hypoglycaemia in healthy subjects and to study certain aspects of a fall in blood glucose in p

Popular Abstract in Swedish Stroke är en vanlig och mycket allvarlig form av hjärt-kärlsjukdom som uppkommer på grund av försämrat blodflöde i en del av hjärnan. Eftersom hjärnan är extremt beroende av kontinuerlig tillförsel av syre och näringsämnen leder tillståndet snabbt till hjärnskada. Det finns tre typer av stroke; hjärninfarkt, hjärnblödning och subaraknoidalblödning (blödning under en hjäThe present thesis aimed to examine how ischemic stroke affects the vascular endothelin and angiotensin systems in cerebral arteries. To study vascular receptor changes in ischemic stroke transient focal ischemia was induced in rats. In addition, rat cerebral arteries and arterial smooth muscle cells were cultured for further analysis of cerebrovascular receptor regulation. For functional studies

The retinoblastoma gene product (pRb) is involved in both cell cycle regulation and cell differentiation. pRb may have dual functions during cell differentiation: partly by promoting a cell cycle brake at G(1) and also by interacting with tissue-specific transcription factors. We recently showed that pRb mediates differentiation of leukemic cell lines involving mechanisms other than the induction

Although the involvement of the tumor suppressor gene p53 in normal hematopoiesis is uncertain, it can give rise to differentiation signals in leukemic cells. It is not clear, however, whether differentiation merely is a consequence of the ability of p53 to arrest cell proliferation or whether hitherto unknown molecular mechanisms are responsible for the p53-mediated differentiation. To further ex

Existentiella hot, inklusive hot mot jaget, samhället och planeten, förekommer genom hela livet och utgör en central del av den mänskliga erfarenheten. För att sammanföra kunskap och begrepp om hur människor kan hantera existentiella hot på ett adekvat sätt sammankallade vi en tvärvetenskaplig arbetsgrupp bestående av åtta forskare från fälten psykologi, systematisk teologi, praktisk teologi, reliExistential threats, including threats to the self, society, and the planet, are present throughout the lifespan and form a core element of the human experience. To consolidate knowledge and constructs about how people can adequately respond to existential threats, we convened an interdisciplinary working group, which consisted of eight researchers from the fields of psychology, systemic theology,

Ett nytänk behövs för våra cykelvägar! Våra växande städer är helt uppbyggda kring transporter med bil. För att kunna bromsa klimatförändringarna behöver vi tänka nytt. Färre bilar och fler cyklar är en av lösningarna som förts fram allt oftare på senare år. Köpenhamn och Amsterdam är de städer som nått längst i att få människor att cykla i stället för att ta bilen. Ju vanligare cyklar blir i trafIn several other European countries, the number of electric bikes (pedelecs) has increased significantly in recent years. A similar increase is also expected in Sweden. So far the knowledge of the attitudes of people using electric bikes in Sweden are limited. This study consists of interviews with 39 persons from all around Sweden to get a better understanding of why they have chosen to ride an e
