Roles of visual and non-visual information in the perception of scene-relative object motion during walking

Perceiving object motion during self-movement is an essential ability of humans. Previous studies have reported that the visual system can use both visual information (such as optic flow) and non-visual information (such as vestibular, somatosensory, and proprioceptive information) to identify and globally subtract the retinal motion component due to self-movement to recover scene-relative object

Formation of Archean continental crust constrained by boron isotopes

The continental crust grew and matured compositionally during the Palaeo- to Neoarchean through the addition of juvenile tonalite-trondhjemite-granodiorite (TTG) crust. This change has been linked to the start of global plate tectonics, following the general interpretation that TTGs represent ancient analogues of arc magmas. To test this, we analysed B concentrations and isotope compositions in 3.

AI Market Survey: Current State of AI in the Øresund Region Private Sector

The prevalence of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the business landscape is indisputable. However, there are considerable gaps between the visionary ideas businesses communicate and their operational use of AI. The goal of this market survey is to identify companies currently working with AI in the Øresund Region - referred to as AI companies. The survey, conducted between June and September 2020,

Hjältar, skurkar och vanligt folk i berättelsen om det förlorade landet Sverige

This article aims to contribute to the knowledge about the success which nationalist parties have experienced during the latest decades in western societies. By a qualitative text analysis, using a case study method, a Facebook-group anonymously named Sverigesidan (The Swedish page), has been studied in order to discover patterns which can explain how nationalism can attract groups who obviously a

Experimental optimization of X-ray propagation-based phase contrast imaging geometry

Propagation-based phase contrast imaging (PB-PCI) with an X-ray lab source is a powerful technique to study low absorption samples, e.g. soft tissue or plastics, on the micrometer scale but is often limited by the low flux and coherence of the source. The setup geometry is essential for the performance since there is a trade-off where a short source distance yields a high contrast-to-noise ratio (

The Safety and Effectiveness of Flecainide in Children in the Current Era

This retrospective study sought to determine the safety and effectiveness of flecainide in children with normal hearts and those with congenital heart disease (CHD) or cardiomyopathy (CMO). Baseline and follow-up data at two pediatric cardiology sites were queried (2000–2015); a total of 175 patients (20 with CHD and two with CMO) receiving flecainide were assessed. When comparing patients with CH

Genomic and drug target evaluation of 90 cardiovascular proteins in 30,931 individuals

Circulating proteins are vital in human health and disease and are frequently used as biomarkers for clinical decision-making or as targets for pharmacological intervention. Here, we map and replicate protein quantitative trait loci (pQTL) for 90 cardiovascular proteins in over 30,000 individuals, resulting in 451 pQTLs for 85 proteins. For each protein, we further perform pathway mapping to obtai

Proteomic exploration of common pathophysiological pathways in diabetes and cardiovascular disease

AIMS: The epidemiological association between diabetes and cardiovascular disease is well established, but the pathophysiological link is complex and multifactorial. We investigated seven proteins, previously linked to incident diabetes mellitus, and their association with cardiovascular disease and mortality.METHODS AND RESULTS: Plasma samples from 1713 individuals from the Swedish population-bas

Familial associations between autoimmune hepatitis and primary biliary cholangitis and other autoimmune diseases

Autoimmune hepatitis (AH) and primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) are autoimmune diseases (AIDs) targeting cellular components of the liver. Being rare diseases, limited data are available about familial risks among these AIDs (concordant) or between them and other AIDs (discordant). We aimed to carry out an unbiased study on these AIDs based on medically diagnosed patients. We collected data on patie

Shaping sustainable travel behaviour : Attitude, skills, and access all matter

Drawing on the conceptualisation of motility as the capacity to be mobile, this paper employs statistical and GIS-based analyses to explore the associations between travel mode choice and mobility-related attitudes, skills and opportunities to access transport modes. The study builds on survey data and spatial data from three urban contexts of Beijing, Gothenburg and Malmo to analyse both individu

Pilot-scale multi-purposes approach for volatile fatty acid production, hydrogen and methane from an automatic controlled anaerobic process

A combined two-levels control method has been developed and tested on a long term operation of a two-phases pilot-scale anaerobic process for the concurrent production of volatile fatty acids, hydrogen and methane. The latter was designed for the treatment of food waste of urban origin (namely, the organic fraction of municipal solid waste). The optimized control method was set on the base of the

Post-IR IRSL dating the oldest (?) river terrace sediments in the Polish Outer Carpathians : Insights into the landscape evolution

Post-infrared infrared stimulated luminescence (post-IR IRSL or pIRIR) was applied to determine the age of the highest-elevated alluvial sediments in the Polish Outer Carpathians. These sediments are preserved on the western slope of the Dunajec River valley, and are located 150–155 m above the present-day river channel. So far, they have been interpreted as accumulated during the Praetiglian (2.5

”En blombukett av chefen, inget mer” : En uppföljning av studenter som tagit en magister eller masterexamen vid Socialhögskolan, Lunds universitet under perioden HT07-HT13.

Titeln på rapporten är ett svar av en socionom på frågan om hon har haft något stöd från arbetsgivaren under studietiden. Jag har under min tid som studierektor för masterprogrammet vid Socialhögskolan, Lunds universitet under perioden 2007 till 2014 ofta fått frågor kring nyttan av en magister eller masterexamen när det gäller yrkeslivet. Frågor som har varit besvärliga att direkt besvara och som
