Sweden was one of the most popular countries where many non-European students chose as the destination to study. However, since the introduction of tuition fees in the autumn of 2011, there has been a major reduction of enrolment in the total number of non-European students. Approximately all Swedish universities had a 33% decrease in the number of foreign students in 2011. However, Lund Universit
Kiselalger, vattenlevande, mikroskopiska organismer med kiselskal, används som bioindikatorer för vattenkvalitet eftersom de är artrika och påverkas av sin omgivning. Processen kallas Kiselalgsmetoden och utförs genom en standard, en standard jag valde att analysera. Proven tas från stenar i vattendrag och sedan görs ett preparat som är fixerat på objektglas som kan undersökas i mikroskop genom aDiatoms, water living, microscopic organisms with silicon shells, are used as bioindicators of water quality because they are diverse and influenced by their surroundings. The process is called The Diatom Method and is accomplished through a standard, a standard I have chosen to analyze. The samples are taken from stones in water streams and then a preparation is made to fix the algae on slides t

Barley, Hordeum vulgare, is a commercially important crop plant mostly used as animal feed but also as human food where it serves as an important source of _-glucan and other nutrients. As populations are growing worldwide, early flowering cultivars can play a vital role to increase the production of barley to meet the increasing demand of this crop. We analyzed five early flowering mat-e mutants
This dissertation investigates the function of the sea in contemporary British and Irish literature, focusing on the following three novels: Dermot Bolger’s Temptation (2000), John Banville’s The Sea (2005), and Ian McEwan’s On Chesil Beach (2007). The analysis is divided into two main parts, where the sea is considered in its roles as a setting and as a symbol. The former section starts with a su
The pressures involved in caring for a child with intellectual disability (ID) and parental needs are well documented in the literature. However, existing theoretical and empirical work shows that the range of emotions experienced by these parents is not widely explored and social and heath caregivers sometimes lack insight into how life with a child with ID affects parents’ well being. The aim of

Background: Sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors have been shown to reduce rates of heart failure hospitalisations and cardiovascular death in patients with type 2 diabetes and prior cardiovascular disease. We hypothesised that SGLT2 inhibitors could provide cardiovascular benefits in the post-myocardial infarction setting. We aimed to investigate cardiovascular outcomes of SGLT2 inh
Background: Osteonecrosis (ON) is a potentially disabling skeletal complication of cancer treatment.

Therefore, synthesising available evidence on the effect of nutritional education intervention on birth outcomes is essential f
We present new true triaxial compression data obtained in the ductile regime on Bleurswiller sandstone. The deformed samples show a range of failure modes qualitatively similar to what was reported by earlier experimental studies performed in conventional conditions (axisymmetric compression). In particular, visual inspection and X-ray Computed Tomography imaging reveal compaction localization in
