What kind of diseases are studied?We study the most common common diseases that occur in middle-aged and elderly people such as cardiovascular disease, osteoporosis, cancer, dementia, depression, lung disease, diabetes, obesity, joint and skeletal pain. We also study disabilities and quality of life, something that often changes as you get older.Who has been selected to participate in EpiHealth?Th

HOW DOES THE CHILD EXPERIENCE SOUND ENVIRONMENT? 2017-03-17 genomförde Ljudmiljöcentrum det tvärvetenskapliga symposiet "Child & Noise - How does the child experience sound environment?" International interdisciplinary symposium aimed at shedding light on how the sound environment may affect the child, spanning from the prenatal stage to the young person enjoying loud music. We too seldom ask how

At Lund University’s Faculty of Science, we study and describe the physical world. We seek to understand everything from the smallest components of nature and molecular processes in the human body to the sensitivity of climate systems and the capacity of exoplanets to support life. Research in science contributes to the knowledge and tools that can improve society, for instance by enabling the dev

Near infrared (NIR) transmission spectroscopy is a promising method for fast quantitative measurements on pharmaceutical tablets, but there are still some problems to overcome in order to incorporate the technique as a control tool in tablet production. The main problem is the limited precision for multivariate calibrations based on NIR transmission data. The precision is affected by several facto

Popular Abstract in Swedish Det övergripande syftet med denna avhandling är att fokusera på barndepressioner i Jordanien, och specifikt vad gäller förekomst, symptom och orsaker. En jordansk översättning av Children’s Depression Inventory (CDI) har använts och resultatet visar att av 534 barn i åldrarna 11-12 år lider 33 av svår depression. I intervjuer med både lärare och de identifierade depressThe purpose of this thesis is to scrutinise the situation of children with depression in Jordan. The Jordanian translation of the Children’s Depression Inventory (CDI) is used in this study. The original sample on which the study tools were applied consisted of 534 children. The data was analysed according to the SPSS programme. The results of the study show that the Jordanian translation of the C

Objective: To evaluate effects of lipopolysaccharide (endotoxin) on protein and fluid permeability in a whole organ skeletal muscle preparation. Design: Controlled, prospective laboratory study. Setting: University research laboratory. Subjects: Eleven adult male cats. Interventions: The study was performed on the autoperfused and denervated calf muscles of the cat hindlimb placed in a fluid-fille

Popular Abstract in Swedish Bröstcancer är den vanligaste cancersjukdomen hos kvinnor i västvärlden och årligen nydiagnosticeras omkring 7000 patienter, bara i Sverige. Antalet nyinsjuknade ökar för varje år medan dödligheten sjunker och de främsta orsakerna till detta tros vara förbättrad diagnostik via mammografiscreening och nya behandlingsmöjligheter. Bröstcancer behandlas primärt med kirurgi,It is well-known that a majority of breast cancers are hormone-dependent, making endocrine therapy an important adjuvant treatment after surgery. Susceptibility to endocrine treatment is determined by the presence of estrogen receptors (ER) and progesterone receptors (PR) in the tumors. Tamoxifen is the most well-established endocrine treatment available, inhibiting tumor growth and improving surv

Popular Abstract in Swedish POPULÄRVETENSKAPLIG SAMMANFATTNING Ett gott mål mat (enteral nutrition) och en välfungerande mag-tarmkanal från mun till brunn är för de flesta en självklarhet men för vissa mer en önskvärdhet. Vid sjukdom i tarm eller bukhåla kan det hända att ett tarmavsnitt nödga's koppla's ur den normala kontinuiteten genom anläggande av en så kallad stomi. Vid överviktskirurgi (exAbolition of enteral nutrition is sometimes required in severe illness. The primary aim of the present work has been to elucidate possible changes in intestinal morphology and motor function in absence of enteral nutrition. Total absence of enteral nutrition in an isolated intestinal segment was created by bypassing the distal ileum in a rat model. Intestinal bypass causes marked circumferential a

Hepatitis B virus (HBV) has eight genotypes which have distinct geographical distributions. Studies comparing differences in the clinical outcomes of infections caused by strains with genotype-related variations in the HBV genome have largely compared genotypes B and C and genotypes A and D but not all four genotypes. The present study included 196 HBV-infected patients attending an infectious dis

Cities are becoming smart to cope with the challenges associated with urban development. One of the cities trying to become smart is the City of Stockholm, which in 2017 adopted a strategy to become the world’s smartest and most connected city. However, becoming a smart city is not easy. The transformation requires a new organizational approach and innovation in management, which the City of Stock

A recent topic of high interest is the difficulties in attracting candidates for certain jobs in municipalities. This matter has become one of the major issues for municipalities. I therefore found it interesting to investigate this issue in more detail. The purpose of the essay has been to describe and analyze how a municipality works with the topic of competence provisioning, in attracting, educ

I investigate to what extent spiral arms might affect axisymmetric Galactic models. As we need fully dynamical and high resolution Galactic evolutionary models to probe the structure of the dark matter halo, it is important that we use accurate mass models describing the MW structure. Before reaching to that level of effort, a great deal can be learned from fitting mass and kinematic models to dat

Human trafficking consists of a sequence of smaller events taking place over a large span of time and perhaps even over multiple borders. Perpetrators of the crime take people away from their homes and their origins, either through coercion or threat of force, and instead place them in frightful environments where their survival and human dignity is constantly at risk. Legal measures to fight huma

Low-molecular weight aliphatic acids, furaldehydes and a broad range of different aromatic compounds are known to inhibit the fermentation of lignocellulose hydrolysates by yeasts. In this work, a cocktail of different lignocellulose-derived inhibitors was used to compare the inhibitor resistance of eleven different industrial and laboratory Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains and two Zygosaccharomyc

Duodenal levodopa infusion represents an effective strategy to manage motor and non-motor complications in patients with advanced Parkinson's disease (PD). However, most published clinical series regard small numbers of patients and do not exceed 1 year follow-up. In this multi-national observational cohort study conducted in seven specialised PD clinics and university hospitals we assessed long-t
