The demand for better methods for condition control and monitoring of embankment dams will increase in a near future as a result of expected more extreme weather situations. Furthermore the availability demand on hydropower will increase as a result of switching from fossil fuels to wind and solar power, in some countries in combination with decommissioning of nuclear power. Temperature monitoring

The current range and volume of research evaluation-related literature is extensive and incorporates scholarly and policy/practice-related perspectives. This reflects academic and practical interest over many decades and trails the changing funding and reputational modalities for universities, namely increased selectivity applied to institutional research funding streams and the perceived importan

In order to electrify commercial distribution vehicles, an easy to use charging infrastructure with minimum driver interaction is needed, as managing time is essential to maximize profit for this type of vehicles. This paper proposes the use of a piece of a conductive Alternating Short-Segmented Electric Road System (ASSE) as an automatic charger for lightweight distribution vans. Since the ASSE i

Background: Middle Eastern immigrants to Europe represent a high risk population for type 2 diabetes. We compared prevalence of novel subgroups and assessed risk of diabetic macro- and microvascular complications between diabetes patients of Middle Eastern and European origin. Methods: This study included newly diagnosed diabetes patients born in Sweden (N = 10641) or Iraq (N = 286), previously in

Aims and objectives: To obtain the current perception of the knowledge and competence of pre-hospital emergency specialist nurses (ambulance) in attending patients with psychiatric symptoms. Background: Psychiatric illnesses have increased throughout the population. Consequently, pre-hospital emergency services frequently attend individuals with suspected or known mental illnesses. Design: We empl

Context: White matter lesions (WML) are caused by obstruction of small cerebral vessels associated with stroke risk. Craniopharyngioma (CP) patients suffer from increased cerebrovascular mortality. Objective: To investigate the effect of reduced HT volume and cranial radiotherapy (CRT) on WML in childhood-onset CP patients. Design: A cross-sectional study of 41 patients (24 women) surgically treat

Background: Fragrances are the most common cause of cosmetic contact allergy. Up-to-date information on contact allergy frequencies and relevance aids primary and secondary preventive measures. Objectives: To determine the prevalence, associated factors, and concomitant reactions in fragrance allergy among Thais. Methods: This retrospective study collected data from 2012 to 2019. The patient chara

Lund presenteras som en medeltidsstad, och visst har staden sitt ursprung i medeltiden, men periodbeteckningen är en eftermedeltida konstruktion och de bevarade spåren är färre än man kan förledas tro. I artikeln genomgås vad som finns kvar av från medeltiden – domkyrkan, Liberiet, Klosterkyrkan, ruinen av sockenkyrkorna Maria Minor och Drotten, Krognoshuset, Dekan- och Kanikresidenset, stadsvalleLund in Scania is perceived as a medieval town. It has its origin in the Middle Ages for sure, however the concept of such a period is a later invention and the preserved traces are fewer and more transformed than one might believe. The article presents what remains from the Middle Ages – the cathedral, the nearby library, the monastery of S:t Peter and Mary, the moved ruins of the parish church M

Denna vägledning vänder sig till personer som behöver tips och idéer på hur man kan sammanställa sina samverkansmeriter. Målgruppen är i första hand lärare och forskare vid svenska universitet och högskolor. Vägledningen baseras på erfarenheter från det praxisnära arbetet som har utförts inom projektet MerSam – Meritvärde av samverkansskicklighet (2018–2020).1 I MerSam har elva svenska lärosäten d

Type 1 diabetes (T1D) and celiac disease (CD) share common genetic loci, mainly within the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class II complex. Extended genotyping of HLA class II alleles and their potential risk for developing both diseases remains to be studied. The present study compared extended HLA-class II gene polymorphisms in children with T1D, CD, and a subgroup diagnosed with both diseases (T

Vi tittar upp nattetid och ser att vår Jord har en måne kretsande runt sig. Denna kallar vi Månen, och den har vi utforskat med hjälp av rymdsonder, olika landare och med hjälp av Apollo-astronauterna. Andra planeter har också månar kretsande runtom sig. Månar som ser helt annorlunda ut än vad vår egen Måne, vissa är små och ser ut som asteroider medans andra är så isiga att de skulle kunna förvanAs we look up at night we see that our Earth has one moon orbiting it, the one we call the Moon. We have explored our moon with orbiters, rovers and astronauts, mapping it and studying its history.Other planets also have moons in orbit around them and these may look quite different from the Earth's moon. Some are small and look like asteroids, others are so icy they would become comets if they plu

Objective: During the investigation of adrenal incidentalomas, it is important to accurately diagnose autonomous cortisol secretion (ACS) but the specificity of cortisol ≥50 nmol/L after overnight dexamethasone suppression (cortisolONDST) is low. Therefore, ACTH following overnight dexamethasone suppression (ACTHONDST) and cortisol following a 2-day dexamethasone suppression test (cortisol2-DAYDST

III-V semiconductors, such as InAs, with an ultrathin high-κ oxide layer have attracted a lot of interests in recent years as potential next-generation metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors, with increased speed and reduced power consumption. The deposition of the high-κ oxides is nowadays based on atomic layer deposition (ALD), which guarantees atomic precision and control over the d

Vi firar att det har gått 50 år sedan Sverige tillsammans med fem andra länder grundade det Europeiska Sydobservatoriet (ESO). Detta observatorium har gett oss enorma mängder vetenskaplig data samt tusentals fantastiska bilder av vårt underbara universum.Här tittar vi på vilka stjärnor och stjärnbilder som finns på vår natthimlen, vi lär oss lite om de stjärnor, stjärnhopar och nebulosor som finnsWe celebrate that it has been 50 years since Sweden together with five other countries founded the European Southern Observatory (ESO). ESO has provided the world with thousands of fantastic pictures of the cosmos.In this planetarium show we take a closer look at the stars and constellations that fill our night sky, we learn about the stars, stellar clusters and nebulae in our galaxy and we take a

The present review is conceived to be a contribution from the double perspective of a semiotician and a designer to the current debate on the extended mind and on distributed cognition, focusing on the role of things (artefacts, material culture) for the emergence of agency in animate beings. The theory of material engagement as conceived by Lambros Malafouris was formally introduced seven years a

Det finns åtta planeter i bana runt vår egen stjärna Solen och flera dvärgplaneter. Astronomer har numera upptäckt avlägsna exoplaneter kretsande runt andra stjärnor i vår galax Vintergatan. Här lyfter vi blicken upp och beundrar nattens alla stjärnor och stjärnbilder och följer astronomerna på deras upptäcktsfärd bland avlägsna exoplaneter.Orbiting our star, the Sun, there are eight planets and several dwarf planets. Astronomers have now discovered planets orbiting several nearby stars in our galaxy, the Milky Way. In this planetarium show we look up into the starry night sky, familiarize ourselves with the stars and the constellations, and together we discover the exoplanets out there and how they can be detected.
