National agreements with academic publishers are undergoing changes. This affects both access to academic articles and the terms and conditions of publication. Here is an overview of the background, what is changing and what this might mean in practice. Publisher agreements – access and open access publishingStaff at Lund University have access to academic journals and the opportunity to publish o

Sociologiska institutionen fyller 75 år och firar med tillbakablickande berättelser. Författad av Daniel Fleming & Kjell Nilsson "Årsbok. 1996, Från seminarium till storinstitution – sociologi i Lund 1947–1997", tryckt i Lund, 1997. När man skall skriva Sociologiska institutionens historia är det svårt att gå förbi det starka student- och doktorandinflytande som präglat institutionen och bidragit

Inverse modeling techniques used to quantify surface carbon fluxes commonly assume that the uncertainty of fossil fuel CO2 (FFCO2) emissions is negligible and that intra-annual variations can be neglected. To investigate these assumptions, we analyzed the differences between four fossil fuel emission inventories with spatial and temporal differences over Europe and their impact on the model simula

Airborne viral diseases have long been neglected but with the recent devastating impact of the COVID-19 pandemic serving as a catalyst for new science, additional viruses are examined. This thesis investigates the infectivity of Rhinovirus, the virus causing common cold, in differently sized bioaerosols. The experimental setup utilized a bio-aerosol nebulizing generator (BANG) to generate droplets

Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: I Kakeled på Kinnekulles sydvästsluttning, Västergötland, finns en blottad lagerföljd från överkambrium. Överkambrium är en tidsperiod som sträckte sig från ca 525 till 500 miljoner år sedan. Avsättningen i det överkambriska havet var extremt långsam (1-10 mm/1000 år). Bottenförhållandena var mer eller mindre syrefria, varför nedbrytningen av det organiska materUpper Cambrian strata are well exposed in an old quarry at Kakeled on south-western Kinnekulle, south-central Sweden. The exposures consist of finely laminated alum shale with lenses and beds of dark grey limestone (stinkstone or orsten), and a few thin layers of sandstone. A 6.20 m thick section in the central part of the quarry has been measured and sampled in order to establish the succession o

Study Design. A randomized controlled comparative trial with an 8-month follow-up period was conducted. Objective. To compare the effect of the McKenzie treatment method with that of intensive dynamic strengthening training in patients with subacute of chronic low back pain. Summary of Backround Data. Randomized studies indicate that the efficacy of the McKenzie method in the treatment of patients

Background Hepatic veno-occlusive disease is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality after haemopoietic stem-cell transplantation (HSCT). We aimed to assess whether defibrotide can reduce the incidence of veno-occlusive disease in this setting. Methods In our phase 3 open-label, randomised controlled trial, we enrolled patients at 28 European university hospitals or academic medical centres. El

Objective: To investigate the risk of stillbirth or neonatal death before 45 post-menstrual weeks in relation to gestational duration, stratified by body mass index (BMI) and parity. Design: Retrospective study. Setting: Data from the Swedish Medical Birth Register. Population: Singleton, cephalic births at between 39+0 and 42+2 weeks of gestation, 2005–2016 (n = 892 339). Methods: Relative risk r

Crystallization of amorphous lactose during storage at high relative humidity and high temperatures has been found to impair the quality of skim milk powders. This is related to the glass transition of lactose. Above a certain temperature (glass transition temperature) amorphous lactose transfers through the rubbery zone into a crystalline state due to increased molecular mobility and as a result

Purpose: Improvements in mortality rate of glioblastoma patients have been limited during the past decades, due to the tumor’s rapidly growing and infiltrative behavior and resistance to current therapy. Recent findings show that higher brain mean dose strongly correlates with inferior overall survival and that local recurrences mainly occur centrally in previously irradiated regions. This project

Background: To assess whether retrograde cerebral perfusion reduces neurological injury and mortality in patients undergoing surgery for acute type A aortic dissection. Methods: Single-center, retrospective, observational study including all patients undergoing acute type A aortic dissection repair with deep hypothermic circulatory arrest between January 1998 and December 2022 with or without the

The options of procreation, reproduction or bringing into existence a child of a particular parentage, including motherhood, are related to the advancement of science. Nowadays it is possible for a woman to become pregnant and afterwards give birth to a child which, by using medical assistance, is actually made from other womans oocyte. The term gestational carriage refers to being pregnant and th

Until recently, the areas of patent law and human rights law were treated separately. The tensions between pharmaceutical patents and the human right to health could be felt already in the 1980s, when the HIV/AIDS pandemic broke out and the pharmaceutical company that discovered a drug which could be used to treat this disease decided to patent it and set the price so high, that it was impossible

The distal radius fracture is the most common fracture of them all and it affects both men and women of all ages. However, no study had investigated men specifically. The overall aim of this thesis was to comprehensively study adult men with distal radius fracture addressing the bone mass of adult men from working age to the old and in addition, exploring determinants for self-reported outcome and

The shortfalls in the quality, quantity, and reliability of agriculture performance data are neither new nor confined to Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). It is, however, a more dire challenge given the overwhelming importance of agriculture in the economies of most countries in the region in terms of food security and poverty reduction. While farmers’ self-reported (SR) data on crop outputs and farm size

Background: Current evidence on chronic disease prevention suggests that interventions targeted at high-risk individuals represents the best way forward. We implemented a step-wise approach in the Danish primary care sector, designed for the systematic and targeted prevention of chronic disease. The intervention centered on a personal digital health profile for all participants, followed by target

Context. The Arcturus stream is an over-density of stars in velocity space and its origin has been much debated recently without any clear conclusion. The (classical) dissolved open cluster origin is essentially refuted; instead the discussions try to distinguish between an accretion, a resonant, or an external-perturbation origin for the stream. As kinematic structures are observational footprint

BACKGROUND: The purpose was to evaluate the dosimetric effects in prostate cancer treatment caused by anatomical changes occurring during the time frame of adaptive replanning in a magnetic resonance linear accelerator (MR-linac) workflow. METHODS: Two MR images (MR1 and MR2) were acquired with 30 min apart for each of the 35 patients enrolled in this study. The clinical target volume (CTV) and or

Popular Abstract in Swedish Föreliggande avhandling, I litteraturens mittfåra, behandlar bokmarknad, bokklubbar och litteraturen under 1970-talet i Sverige. Bakgrunden till undersökningen är de radikala förändringar som skedde på den svensk bokmarknaden efter den genomgripande avregleringen av handeln med böcker 1970. Bokklubbarna växte från att inneha en marknadsandel på 9% 1970 till att ha 30% aThe present dissertation, I litteraturens mittfåra, deals with book trade, book clubs, and the fiction prose of the 1970s in Sweden. The background to the study is the radical change in Swedish book trade through a far-reaching deregulation of the trade in 1970. The book clubs expanded from a position where they held a 9% share of the market in 1970 to a market share of 30% in 1980.And the specifi
