Aims: In a co-twin control design, we aimed to examine whether individuals who initiate metformin treatment have an altered risk of incident diagnosis of osteoarthritis (OA), for up to 11 years after starting the treatment, compared with their non-treated co-twin. Methods: In all twin pairs different for metformin treatment (N=1 261 pairs) and all eligible twins/singletons (N=52 341) aged 35–75 ye
This study examines how the establishment of grocery retail in the urban development area of Södra Råbylund in Lund, Sweden, can be understood in terms of collaboration between municipal and private actors. The aim is to analyse how differing temporal logics, discretionary power, and governance arrangements shape the implementation of commercial services in new urban developments. The study is bas
This thesis examines the development of cross-border commuting from Skåne to Denmark during the period 1997–2006, with particular attention to the role of the Öresund Bridge in facilitating increased regional integration. The study is grounded in theories of time geography, labour mobility, and center-periphery, which are used to interpret how accessibility and mobility shape participation in an i
This work consists of seven essays, with each concerning a specific subject that is related to architecture. There is additional text, which pertains to this work's examination requirements for graduating the architecture-program at Lund Technical University. This work is a creative explorations through writing as a tool; through text; becoming able to formulate, conceptualize, develop and ext
Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka hur vi kan bygga mer hållbara byggnader i Sverige genom att analysera materialval, byggmetoder, energieffektivitet, social hållbarhet samt ekonomiska aspekter. Målet är att identifiera konkreta åtgärder och strategier som kan bidra till ett mer hållbart samhällsbyggande. För att uppnå syftet har vi använt en kombination av kvalitativa metoder och teoretisk
Objective: So-called responder analyses are commonly used in randomized controlled trials (RCT) for osteoarthritis and are typically based on observed change from baseline in self-reported pain. However, it is well known in the methodological literature that such responder analyses are misleading. We aimed to illustrate the size of the problem using simulation. Design: We generated individual pain
Background and Aims: Colon capsule endoscopy (CCE) provides a non-invasive alternative to traditional colonoscopy. This study evaluated the feasibility, safety, diagnostic yield (DY), and patient satisfaction of the OMOM CC100 CCE system, with special focus on fully remote (n = 30) and partially remote (n = 89) administration across four centres to advance decentralised models. Methods: This prosp
With the artistic research project Costume Dramaturgies we investigate the dramaturgy that emerges when performance takes an unconventional starting point: a costume – a thing.This one year project is a continuation of the artistic research project Costume Agency (2018–2023), with a deepened focus on dramaturgy.By approaching dramaturgy as an assembly of things, we shift perspective from the human

We investigate subalgebras of finite codimension in. In earlier work we have introduced a way of describing such subalgebras in terms of their so called (subalgebra) spectrum and a set of conditions for subalgebra membership that can be expressed by evaluating polynomials and their derivatives in points of the spectrum only. In this paper we focus on subalgebras with a single element in their spec
Background: Metformin is one of the most used drugs worldwide. Given the increasing use of proteomics in trials, bioresources, and clinics, it is crucial to understand the influence of metformin on the levels of the circulating proteome. Methods: We analysed a combined longitudinal proteomics dataset from the IMPOCT, RAMP and S3WP-T2D clinical trials in 98 participants before and after metformin e
Craft-performance at the opening of the exhibition Becomings is a performative exploration of the Danish concept fællesskabelse—a term that combines community and creation to describe processes in which something new emerges through being and making together. Unlike co-creation, where participants contribute predefined parts to a shared task, fællesskabelse focuses on the forming of the community
Chrysene-containing polymers functionalized with piperidinium- and quinuclidinium cations, respectively, are prepared by polyhydroxyalkylation and studied as anion exchange membranes (AEMs). Experimental results, supported by theoretical considerations, indicate that the chrysene units significantly enhance alkaline stability; a poly(chrysene piperidinium) AEM shows only 16% total ionic loss, comp
Context. The Near-InfraRed Planet Searcher (NIRPS) is a high-resolution, high-stability near-infrared (NIR) spectrograph equipped with an adaptive optics (AO) system. Installed on the ESO 3.6-m telescope at La Silla Observatory, Chile, it was developed to enable radial velocity (RV) measurements of low-mass exoplanets around M dwarfs and to characterise exoplanet atmospheres in the NIR. Aims. This
Photonics technologies play a crucial role in driving technological advancements within the agrifood industry, aiming to deliver a sustainable food and agriculture, and offering healthy, nutritious and safe food for all of us. Particularly, optical sensors and imaging systems, together with machine-learning processing and advanced lighting, play a pivotal role in monitoring crop and soil health wi
