Denna uppsats analyserar hur nyliberal logik reflekteras och reproduceras av både Lunds äldre och Lunds kommunala träffpunkter för seniorer, samt vilka konsekvenser detta kan innebära. Resultatet demonstrerar tecken på konstruktionen av en “nyliberal senior”, som prioriterar fysiskt och mentalt välmående, produktivitet, individuellt ansvar, och socialisering; med uppfattningen att man således både

Non-axisymmetric endwall contouring (NEC) is one of the verified approaches to suppress secondary flows and improve aerodynamic performance. However, the design of NEC brings significant challenges to the design of endwall cooling structures. Herein, a pressure-sensitive paint experimental approach was used to obtain the film cooling effectiveness of the NEC endwall with a purge slot in this study

Background: Management of young febrile infants is challenging. Therefore, several guidelines have been developed over the last decades. However, knowledge regarding the impact of introducing guidelines for febrile infants is limited. We assessed the impact of and adherence to a novel guideline for managing febrile infants aged ≤59 days. Methods: This retrospective cross-sectional study was conduc

Bakgrund: Under föräldraledigheten ändras vardagens aktiviteter där nya rutiner, vanor och upplevelser skapas. Varje aktivitet genererar ett aktivitetsvärde som har betydelse för upplevelsen av välbefinnande. Välbefinnande innefattar fysiska, psykiska och sociala aspekter. Att utforska upplevelsen av aktivitetsvärde samt upplevt välbefinnande under föräldraledigheten, kan öka kunskapen om behovet Background: During parental-leave, occupations change, new routines, habits and experiences are created. Each activity generates an occupational value that is significant for the experience of well-being. Well-being includes physical, mental and social aspects. Exploring the experience of occupational value and perceived well-being during parental-leave, can increase knowledge about the need for o

The recidivism rate following imprisonment is a social problem that is receiving increasing attention in today's societal debate. Rehabilitative efforts for reintegrating prisoners are recognized as crucial in reducing recidivism, a responsibility largely placed on the Swedish Prison and Probation Service. However, their capacity to engage in rehabilitation activities is increasingly restricte

Stellar mergers and accretion events have been crucial in shaping the evolution of the Milky Way (MW). These events have been dynamically identified and chemically characterized using red giants and main-sequence stars. RR Lyrae (RRL) variables can play a crucial role in tracing the early formation of the MW since they are ubiquitous, old (t ≥ 10 Gyr) low-mass stars and accurate distance indicator

Bakgrund: Sexuell hälsa och sexualitet är en del av människans vardagsliv och viktigt att lyfta inom psykiatrin då psykiska sjukdomar och ohälsa kan påverka klientens sexualitet och relationer negativt. Syfte: Att undersöka hur yrkesverksamma arbetsterapeuter förhåller sig till sexuell hälsa och sexualitet i arbetet med vuxna klienter inom psykiatrin. Metod: En kvalitativ studie baserad på nio iBackground: Sexual health and sexuality are part of everyday life. In mental health services it is an important topic to address since mental illness can negatively impact the client’s sexuality and relationships. Aim: To explore occupational therapist’s approach to sexual health and sexuality in their work in mental health services with adults. Method: A qualitative study based on nine interview

At the beginning of the summer of 2023, a staple figure of Italian culture and politics passed away after living in the public eye for three decades. Everybody in Italy had an opinion on Silvio Berlusconi, a man whose face was easily seen at least once a day on televisions, newspapers and gossip columns. News of his death circulated quickly, and journalists rushed to comment on his political caree

Syftet med denna uppsats är att studera hur genusnormer utmanas och reproduceras genom framställningen av deltagarna i det svenska realityprogrammet Första dejten (2023). Genom en genusteoretisk lins och analysmetoden kritisk diskursanalys undersöker studien hur deltagarnas språkbruk kan bidra till att både upprätthålla och göra motstånd mot genusnormer. Studiens empiriska material utgörs av trans

Detection of tool wear is critical in optimizing tool change strategies and cutting parameter selection to influence productivity, cost, and quality in metal cutting. Nonetheless, current practices for tool wear detection majorly depend on manual, inconsistent, and time-consuming visual inspection by operators. Tool wear detection has the potential to greatly benefit from recent advances in artifi

This thesis deals with the characterization of the approved inner tracker upgrade of the ALICE experiment involving an innovative and ultra-thin silicon detector with a cylindrical geometry. During this thesis work, Monolithic Active Pixel Sensors (MAPS) were studied for the first large-scale prototype of the upgrade, together with a sensor of the same technology with smaller size. Properties of t

Följande studie handlar om hur lärare genomför bedömning på gymnasieskolor med och utan körprofil i kursen Ensemble med körsång (Skolverket, 2010a). Nyfikenheten kring ämnet tar utgångspunkt från vår gemensamma körbakgrund och upplevelsen om att många musiklärare uttrycker en viss svårighet med att bedöma elever inom körsång. Syftet för studien blir således att undersöka lärares tillvägagångssätt The following study explores how teachers conduct assessment in Swedish upper secondary schools with and without a choir profile in the course Ensemble with Choral Singing (Skolverket, 2010a). The curiosity about the subject is based on our background in choral singing and that our perception is that the experience amongst many music teachers is that there is a certain difficulty in assessing stud

Denna uppsats ämnar klarlägga rättsläget runt force majeure, då begreppet i svensk rätt har delade uppfattningar och ingen konkret lagstadgad eller entydig definition. Uppsatsens syfte är därmed att ge en fördjupad förståelse för force majeure. Vidare ämnar denna uppsats undersöka hur force majeure i svensk rätt skiljer sig från ICC:s idé om force majeure, och belysa olika delar av annan nationellThis thesis aims to clarify the legal status of force majeure, as the concept in Swedish law has divided opinions and no concrete statutory definition. The purpose of the thesis is thus to provide a deeper understanding of force majeure. Furthermore, this thesis aims to examine how force majeure in Swedish law differs from the ICC’s idea of force majeure and to highlight various aspects of nationa

Chitin is one of the most abundant nitrogen-containing polymers in forest soil. Ability of ectomycorrhizal (EM) fungi to utilize chitin may play a key role in the EM symbiosis nutrition and soil carbon cycle. In forest, EM fungi exhibit high diversity, which could be based on function partitioning and trait complementarity. Although it has long been recognized that closely related species share fu

Objective: A single center prospective non-randomized study to assess a systematically developed anatomically-based sentinel lymph node (SLN) algorithm in cervical cancer. Methods: Consecutive women with FIGO 2009 stage 1A2-2A1 cervical cancer undergoing robotic radical hysterectomy/trachelectomy between September 2014 and January 2023 had cervically injected Indocyanine Green (ICG) as a tracer fo

I Sverige måste man som utgångspunkt samtycka till all hälso- och sjukvård. Det förutsätter att man har beslutsförmåga vilket för patienter med demens-sjukdom inte alltid är fallet. Tydliga regler för hur vård ska ges till patienter som inte har förmågan att samtycka och bestämma över sin vård saknas i Sverige. Denna framställning uppehåller sig kring denna problematik. Uppsatsen syfte är att undIn Sweden, consent is required for all health care. This requires the ability to make decisions, which is not always the case for patients with dementia. Clear rules on how care should be provided to patients who do not have the capacity to consent and decide on their care are lacking in Sweden. This presentation focuses on this problem. The aim of the paper is to examine the right to health of p
