Kapacitetsbyggande för ekosocial integration : Utmaningar och möjligheter för Lunds kommun

Klimatförändringar och social rättvisa är två sammanlänkade utmaningar för städer och kommuner. I takt med att miljö- och klimatkriserna förvärras blir behovet av att sammanlänka ekologisk och social hållbarhet alltmer centralt för städers och kommuners omställning. Tidigare separata åtgärder för dessa områden har ofta misslyckats med att tillvarata synergier och hantera motsättningar. Projektet u

Thyroid disease in ANCA-associated vasculitis : a clinical and epidemiological study

Objectives To describe clinical and laboratory characteristics and outcomes in patients with antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis (AAV) and thyroid disease (TD). We also aimed to calculate incidence and identify predictors of TD in two large cohorts of patients with AAV. Methods The study comprised 644 patients with AAV in a population-based cohort from southern Sweden

Weyl spin-momentum locking in a chiral topological semimetal

Spin-orbit coupling in noncentrosymmetric crystals leads to spin-momentum locking – a directional relationship between an electron’s spin angular momentum and its linear momentum. Isotropic orthogonal Rashba spin-momentum locking has been studied for decades, while its counterpart, isotropic parallel Weyl spin-momentum locking has remained elusive in experiments. Theory predicts that Weyl spin-mom

A comparative study of satellite altimetry-based and DEM-based methods for estimating lake water volume changes

This study compared two different methods, the satellite altimetry-based and DEM (digital elevation model)-based, for estimating lake water volume changes. We focused on 34 lakes in China as the testing sites to compare the two methods for lake water volume changes from 2005 to 2020. The satellite altimetry-based method used water levels provided by the DAHITI (Database for Hydrological Time Serie

Lot-to-lot immunogenicity consistency of the respiratory syncytial virus prefusion F protein vaccine in older adults

Background: Previous phase 3 studies showed that the AS01E-adjuvanted respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) prefusion F protein-based vaccine for older adults (RSVPreF3 OA) is well tolerated and efficacious in preventing RSV-associated lower respiratory tract disease in adults ≥ 60 years of age. This study evaluated lot-to-lot immunogenicity consistency, reactogenicity, and safety of three RSVPreF3 OA

Improvement in modeling NH3/CH4 combustion based on the effects of the H-abstraction reactions and disproportionation reactions

The H-abstraction reactions and disproportionation reactions play very important roles in the NH3/CH4 combustion model. The rate coefficient of the H-abstraction reaction, CH2O + NH2[dbnd]HCO + NH3 (R1430), theoretically calculated by Li & Lü was multiplied by 100 in the works of Dai et al. to better match the experiment, which was repeatedly adopted in the subsequent NH3/CH4 kinetic models. M

Symmetric doubly periodic gravity-capillary waves with small vorticity

We construct small amplitude gravity-capillary water waves with small nonzero vorticity, in three spatial dimensions, bifurcating from uniform flows. The waves are symmetric, and periodic in both horizontal coordinates. The proof is inspired by Lortz' construction of magnetohydrostatic equilibria in reflection-symmetric toroidal domains [23]. It relies on a global representation of the vorticity a

H infinity controller for smoothing the coupling error in co-simulated technical systems.

Co-simulation is widely used in industry for the simulation of multi-domain linear-time-invariant systems. However, as a result of the not continuous communication between our coupling variables, simulation results end up being unstable and inaccurate. Among the different strategies that have been developed in the recent years to control co-simulation drawbacks, the aim of this thesis is to unders

Constructing InP/ZnSe Quantum Dots with Shell Gradient In3+ Doping for Photoelectrochemical Cells

Environmentally friendly InP/ZnSe core/shell quantum dots (QDs) with high absorption coefficients and tunable band gaps have demonstrated great potential for photoelectrochemical (PEC) water splitting. However, the tightly bound excitonic feature by inherent type I band alignment tends to reduce the charge separation efficiency, limiting their PEC performance. Herein, we devised heterovalent In3+

An integrated omics approach highlights how epigenetic events can explain and predict response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy and bevacizumab in breast cancer

Treatment with the anti-angiogenic drug bevacizumab in addition to chemotherapy has shown efficacy for breast cancer in some clinical trials, but better biomarkers are needed to optimally select patients for treatment. Here, we present an omics approach where DNA methylation profiles are integrated with gene expression and results from proteomic data in breast cancer patients to predict response t

The 1+Million Genomes Minimal Dataset for Cancer

Defining minimal standards for data collection is key to creating interoperative, searchable genomic and clinical databases. We highlight here the 1+Million Genomes Minimal Dataset for Cancer, encompassing 140 items in 8 domains to foster the collection of cancer data, inform transnational cooperation and advance precision cancer medicine.

Reconfiguring labour and welfare in the Global South : How the social question is framed as market participation

This special issue explores the intertwining reconfigurations of labour and welfare in the Global South by bringing together eight empirical studies of different national and transnational contexts and three commentaries. It asks how Global South people and states alike have come to prioritize market logics as guiding principles for welfare systems, moving away from collective risk-pooling towards

4D Printing Architectural Textiles: Programmable Self-Supporting Structures

This research investigates the architectural viability of large-scale FDM 3D printing of thermoplastics directly onto stretched textiles, which retract and warp into 3D structures upon stretch release. This collection documents the development of an experimental fabrication process specifically for large-scale programmable structural textiles, testing interdependencies in both material, fabricatio

Lexikon för ett skriftlöst språk

In this article I discuss problems related to the compilation of dictionaries for understudied languages that do not have a generally accepted written form. This task is in most cases undertaken by linguists with the purpose of describing and analyzing a language or by missionaries whose ultimate goal is to translate the Bible or other holy scriptures. As a case study, the structure of two differe

Accumulated Silence When “Passing the Buck” : Organisational Tensions in Child Welfare Investigations.

Sweden’s child welfare services are characterised by intra-organisational specialisation and collaboration with Barnahus as a standard procedure in cases of child abuse. This chapter examines what happens with social workers’ risk assessments when they are both filtered internally at different units and in relation to Barnahus and a criminal law-oriented logic. Various organisational tensions are

The myth of ‘Jacobin Kemalism’? : influence of the French Revolution on Kemalist elite and ideology during the early republican period

This study examines the first-hand sources of Kemalism to understand how and to what extent the French Revolution inspired the Kemalist elite and influenced Kemalism during the early republican period. In the literature, there is a general perception that the French Revolution and Jacobinism were highly influential on the Kemalists, but this perception mainly depends on broad interpretations witho

Similar parasite communities but dissimilar infection patterns in two closely related chickadee species

Hemosporidian parasite communities are broadly similar in Boulder County, Colorado, between two common songbirds-the Black-capped Chickadee (Poecile atricapillus) and Mountain Chickadee (Poecile gambeli). However, Mountain Chickadees appear more likely to be infected with Plasmodium and potentially experience higher infection burdens with Leucocytozoon in contrast to Black-capped Chickadees. We fo

Inability to start or complete upper secondary school strongly predicts unemployment and psychosocial and psychiatric adversities – A register-based follow-up study from southwestern Sweden

Aim: To study academic, social and psychiatric outcomes among adults in the general population in southwestern Sweden. Groups of individuals born in 1998 and ineligible, eligible but not completed, and eligible and completed upper secondary school were followed in 2020. Methods: Data were retrieved from Statistics Sweden, the Swedish National Agency for Education, the Longitudinal Integrated Datab
