Mjukdelssarkom utgör en heterogen grupp av ovanliga tumörer och innefattar ett 50-tal olika subtyper med varierande klinisk bild och prognos. Två tredjedelar är höggradigt maligna tumörer och en tredjedel av patienterna avlider i tumörsjukdom. I Södra sjukvårdsregion är vården av patienter med sarkom centraliserad till SUS/Lund. Sarkomgruppen i Lund utreder och behandlar patienter med sarkom och Soft tissue sarcomas constitute a heterogeneous group of rare tumours with some 50 histopathologic types with different clinical characteristics and prognosis. Two thirds are highly malignant tumours and one third of the patients die due to metastatic disease. The care of sarcoma patients in the Southern Swedish health care region is centralised to the Lund Sarcoma Centre. We have a large data ba

Have you ever been asked what your learning style is? You might have been encouraged to think about whether you learn best by listening or reading – or whether you have a primarily visual, auditive or kinesthetic learning style. The idea is that you learn best if you adapt your study technique to your learning style. However, the fact is there is no evidence for that it works; rather, the opposite

Objectives: Romania joined to European Union (EU) in 2007. Consequently, the number of EU citizens of Roma descent increased in Sweden as the movement of freedom was granted. This study attempts to understand the conceptualisation and reason for underreporting hate crimes in Malmö, Sweden. Methods: Qualitative data collection methods of semi-structured interview and participant observation were e

Fibrillar macromolecules are long, linear structures that have helical symmetry. A technique called X-ray fiber diffraction (XRFD) is often used to help solve the three-dimensional structure of fibrillar macromolecules. Models of fibrillar structure, built de novo, using homologs or using experimental data derived from other methods should be compared to this experimental XRFD data to test and ref

We aim to identify novel interventions for prevention and treatment of diabetes-related cardiovascular disease (CVD). Our strategy is to identify genetic, endocrine and metabolic disturbances in humans which are causally related to disease development and are detectable many years before disease presents. We then test in both animals and in human intervention studies if manipulation of such molecu

Avdelningen Studentstöd och lärande ger service och stöd till studenter och består av tre arbetsgrupper: Pedagogiskt studentstöd, Studieverkstaden och SI-verksamhet.Student Support and Learning provide service and support to students, and comprises three working groups: Disability Support Services, the Academic Support Centre, and the Supplemental Instruction unit.

Akademiintendenturen ansvarar för att planera, koordinera och genomföra universitetets akademiska högtider, andra stora tillställningar och event, såsom Årshögtiden, Nit och Redlighet och Diplomeringsceremonin samt officiella besök.

Luftvägsinfektioner är en av våra vanligaste infektionssjukdomar. Forskargruppen fokuserar på olika aspekter av luftvägsinfektioner, framför allt vid tillstånd med nedsatt immunförsvar lokalt i luftvägarna som t ex vid cystisk fibros och hos lungtransplanterade. Projekten utforskar t ex biomarkörer för bakteriella infektioner i luftvägsprover, hur det medfödda immunförsvaret i lungan fungerar vid Airway infections are one of the most common infectious diseases. The research group focuses on different aspects of airway infections, especially in pulmonary conditions associated with impaired innate immunity in the airways, such as cystic fibrosis (CF) and lung transplant recipients. The projects address issues such as biomarkers for bacterial infection in airway samples, how innate immunity f

Background:Accurate information about chemotherapy drugs and regimens is needed to reduce chemotherapy errors. A national e-library, as a common knowledge source with standardized chemotherapy nomenclature and content, was developed. Since the information in the library is both complex and extensive, it is central that the users can use the resource as intended.Objective:The aim of this study was

This study examine the roles of bloggers in Web 2.0. Blogging is considered to be a fairly new phenomenon and blog authors are increasingly seen as producers of user-­generated content wielding influence on both their readers and respective industries. Thus, it is argued that recognizing the different roles assumed by bloggers will shed light on the importance of bloggers and how this may affect m

JavaScript is a sequential programming language, and Thread-Level Speculation has been proposed to dynamically extract parallelism in order to take advantage of parallel hardware. In previous work, we have showed significant speed-ups with a simple on/off speculation heuristic. In this paper, we propose and evaluate three heuristics for dynamically adapt the speculation: a 2-bit heuristic, an expo

The goal for this master thesis was to investigate the possibility of using an existing web server and modify it so it can be used in ABB controllers. The work has resulted in two different versions of a web server. The basic functionality is the same for both versions. The web servers are able to present a number of controller-related information. For example: hardware, which control programs tha

An important factor for a user of web sites on the Internet is the duration of time between the request of a web page until an answer has been returned. If this response time is too long, the user is likely to abandon the web site and search for other providers of the service. To avoid this loss of users, it is important for the web site operator to assure that users are treated sufficiently fast.

Trots de senaste årtiondenas betydande framsteg inom cancerforskningen, vilket bland annat avspeglas i ett ständigt ökande utbud av nya läkemedel, har cancerdiagnostiken, som bedrivs av patologer, inte utvecklats i samma takt. För att uppnå visionen om individualiserad cancerbehandling måste därför den kliniska patologin utveckla bättre verktyg för att kunna identifiera biologiska särdrag, s.k. biThe pathologist’s role is to deliver accurate diagnosis of disease, so as to enable optimal treatment strategies for individual patients. In the wake of the ‘omics revolution, with an increasing availability and impact of a wide range of molecular technologies, clinical pathology is currently undergoing a paradigm shift. However, despite the clear value of these technologies in further refining th

Enhetens syfte är att samordna och utveckla support, stöd och utbildning för lärmiljöer, såväl digitala som campusbaserade, vid Lunds universitet.

CPUP är ett nationellt kvalitetsregister och uppföljningsprogram för personer med cerebral pares (CP) som startade i Lund 1994. Till CPUP rapporteras årligen en mängd information om personens funktion, status och behandling. Registret innehåller således longitudinell information från totalpopulationen barn med CP i Sverige och ett stort antal vuxna. Databasen har under senare år vuxit med cirka 50CPUP is a national quality registry and follow-up programme for individuals with cerebral palsy (CP), which started in Lund in 1994. A lot of information about the person's function, clinical findings and treatment is reported annually to CPUP. The register thus contains longitudinal information from the total population of children with CP in Sweden and a large number of adults. The database has

Epilepsy is a devastating neurological disorder characterized by synchronous neuronal activity, which manifests as epileptic seizures. It usually develops after an initial insult, such as head trauma or stroke, which triggers the epileptogenic process. During epileptogenesis, the affected brain regions undergo multiple changes in connectivity and gene expression, and among the most affected genes Epilepsy is a devastating neurological disorder characterized by synchronous neuronal activity, which manifests as epileptic seizures.
