Background: The increasing trends in cesarean delivery are globally acknowledged. However, in many low-resource countries, socioeconomic disparities have created a pattern of underuse and overuse among lower and higher socioeconomic groups. The impact of rising cesarean delivery rates on neonatal survival is also unclear.Objective: To examine cesarean delivery and its associated socioeconomic patt
Dynamic glucose enhanced (DGE) chemical exchange saturation transfer (CEST) MRI is an emerging imaging technique that provides a molecular-specific type of image contrast, based on magnetic labelling of exchangeable protons. The technique enables the use of biodegradable sugars as contrast agents, and such compounds are believed to have less side effects than conventional MRI contrast agents. Howe
While foreign direct investments (FDI) are promoted as a vehicle for economic development their environmental consequences are less established. This study tests the hypotheses that 1) FDI led to environmental degradation in form of increased greenhouse gas emissions during Sub-Saharan Africa´s recent growth spurt but that 2) this impact was felt to a lesser extent in countries with a higher quali
Although the communication aspects of sport and football organizations are receiving in-creased scholarly attention, research from the perspective of fans of such organizations has mostly been neglected. This study problematizes the gap that exists be-tween the current social media communication of football organizations, that tend to be guided by commercial interests, and the expectation of fans
3 oktober 2026 09:00 till 17:00 | Konferens, Symposium SYMPOSIUM Since 1745, Lund University has maintained its own orchestra – Akademiska kapellet (Lund University Academic Orchestra) – in which students perform under professional direction. In connection with a new exhibition at Lund University's Historical Museum, featuring a selection of the orchestra's historic instruments, the Odeum Music Ce
Collection and delivery points have become increasingly important due to the current e-commerce trend. In addition to the general rise within e- commerce the extraordinary situation with an ongoing SARS-CoV-2- pandemic has further increased the demand for sufficient parcel deliveries. The purpose of this master thesis has been to investigate how different stakeholders connected to e-commerce measu
This thesis offers a critical analysis of the scaling of water governance in South Africa and its implications for water access and allocation. As the complexity and severity of environmental problems increases, there is a growing tendency to look to environmental governance to offer solutions. I contend that water governance, as with all forms of environmental governance, is never an apolitical e
Efficient systemic pharmacological treatment of solid tumors is hampered by inadequate tumor concentration of cytostatics necessitating development of smart local drug delivery systems. To overcome this, we demonstrate that doxorubicin (DOX), a cornerstone drug used for osteosarcoma treatment, shows reversible accretion to hydroxyapatite (HA) of both nano (nHA) and micro (mHA) size. nHA particles

Im März 1847 erließ Papst Pius IX die Enzyklika „Praedecessores Nostros“, die die katholische Geistlichkeit weltweit aufrief, zur Linderung der großen irischen Hungersnot drei Tage der Gebete und Kollekten abzuhalten. Die Bischöfe, die diese Botschaft in den italienischen Staaten weiterführten, verfassten ihrerseits Appelle zur lokalen Durchführung des Triduums. Sie animierten die Gläubigen, dem B
The study extends a previous investigation on the use of oral decongestants during pregnancy with another 1 000 women (1 017 infants) who reported the use of such drugs in early pregnancy and 1 125 women (1 145 infants) who had such drugs prescribed later in pregnancy. The results on the beneficial delivery outcome after late use of the drugs with a reduced rate of preterm birth and low birth weig

How sticky were wages during the Great Depression? Although classic accounts emphasize the importance of nominal rigidity in amplifying deflationary shocks, the evidence is limited. In this paper, I calculate the degree of nominal wage rigidity in the United Kingdom between the wars using new granular data covering millions of wages.I find that nominal wages were more flexible downwards than in mo
