Purpose: The purpose of this study was to explore the relationship between oxidative stress, antioxidant defense, mitochondrial structure, and biomechanical tissue support in the isolated porcine retina.Methods: Full-thickness retinal sheets were isolated from adult porcine eyes. Retinas were cultured for 2 or 48 h using (1) a previously established low-support explant protocol with photoreceptors
Cold attics are a common element present in the Swedish residential building stock. They are known to be prone to mould problems due to their low ventilation and are one of the main channels through which buildings lose heat. One of the strategies that can help solve cold attic problems and at the same time contribute to solving the housing crisis is their conversion into habitable spaces. This re
Problempresentation: Elpriset ändras varje dag på den nordiska elbörsen, Nord Pool. Dessa förändringar är nära relaterade med den mängd vatten som rinner in till vattenkraftverken, kallad tillrinningsenergi, eftersom vattenkraft är den sorts elektricitet som i första hand används. Genom att i förväg veta den totala veckotillrinningsenergin kan de som handlar med elektricitet förutspå mindre föränd
Chemical communication using pheromones is crucial for the reproductive success of many insect species, including beetles(Coleoptera). Pheromones are detected by specialised odorant receptors (ORs), called pheromone receptors (PRs), in the sensoryneurons of the antennae. The PRs in Coleoptera remain understudied, with only a few receptors being functionally characterised.This limits our understand
The dominant image of judicial authority is emotional detachment; however, judicial work involves emotion. This presents a challenge for researchers to investigate emotions where they are disavowed. Two projects, one in Australia and another in Sweden, use multiple sociological research methods to study judicial experience, expression, and management of emotion. In both projects, observational res
Assessment of the right side of the heart is important in patients with heart disease; especially in patient with elevated pressure in the lung circulation. Decreased right ventricular function and elevated pressure in the right atrium are of poor prognostic value. Two-dimensional echocardiography (ultrasound of the heart) is the most commonly used method to assess the hearts function, but the rig
Popular Abstract in Swedish Winnicott definierade och införde begreppen övergångsobjekt (ÖO) och övergångsfenomen (ÖF) vid ett möte i brittiska psykoanalytiska föreningen i maj 1951. Detta kopplades till ett tänkande, som gällde utvecklingen av barnets relaterande från en från början alltigenom subjektiv upplevelsevärld till en värld med ”verkliga” relationer - och talade om ”the intermediate areaThe central issue of the dissertation is the place and meaning of the concepts transitional object (TO) and transitional phenomenon (TP) as defined by Winnicott, in a normal psychological context. A group of children were followed from age 8 months to 6 years. A prevalence study was carried out by interviewing parents in connection with the child's (n=147) routine check-ups at the Child Health Cen
Population-based metaheuristic algorithms are powerful tools in the design of neutron scattering instruments and the use of these types of algorithms for this purpose is becoming more and more commonplace. Today there exists a wide range of algorithms to choose from when designing an instrument and it is not always initially clear which may provide the best performance. Furthermore, due to the nat
Bergholm, H. 2014. Memory and life pattern: Identity of Forest Finns in three excavated settlements from the early modern period. From the 1580s until the mid 1600s the “Forest Finns” – stemming from the area Savolax in eastern Finland – colonized parts of central and north Sweden. There were several factors that caused this migration; war and overpopulation were two of those factors. The purpos
I denna uppsats observeras först den historiska bakgrunden till konflikten kring visstidsanställningar och rättsutvecklingens stora drag med särskilt fokus på anställningsformerna. Efter detta lyfts den fackliga kritiken mot visstidsanställningar i allmänhet och behovsanställningar i synnerhet. Kritiken påpekar att anställningssäkerheten minskas av visstidsanställningar. Efter det radas metod, syfThis paper first observes the historical background of the conflict surrounding fixed-term employment contracts and the legal history of the matter, focusing especially on the formal types of employment. Following that the critisism leveled at fixed-term contracts by trade unions is noted. The criticism concerns fixed-term contracts in general, and zero-hour contracts in particular. It is pointed
Academic literatures state that the inadequacy of political will, lack of financial incentives, high costs of renewables, low awareness, and prominence of thermal sources is creating barriers to the adoption of renewable energy, despite the favorable environmental conditions for them in Ghana, especially solar. Within the context of sustainability, understanding the mechanisms that have produced t
Denna rapport behandlar väg E6 mellan Helsingborg-Vellinge med avseende på omkörningsförbudet för tung trafik som infördes den 18e mars år 2019. Väg E6 genom hela Skåne har under en lång tid präglats av trafiksäkerhets- och framkomlighetsproblem. Denna rapport skrevs i syfte att utreda på vilka sätt omkörningsförbudet påverkat just dessa faktorerna, d.v.s. framkomlighet och trafiksäkerhet. För attThis report deals with road E6 between Helsingborg-Vellinge and regards the overtaking prohibition for heavy traffic which was introduced on the 18th of March 2019. Road E6 through Skåne has during a long period been affected by traffic safety and availability issues. This report was written with the purpose of examining in what ways the overtaking prohibition has affected these factors, meaning a
What is the relation between densification and social sustainability? This project work examines the impact of densification on social sustainability carried out by municipalities. The impact on social sustainability through involvement of the general public in the decision-making process of densification, will also be looked at. A case study of Lund municipality’s management and control processes
