The use of Methadone in adult patients with cancer-pain at a governmental cancer centre in India

Background: Management of cancer-related pain relies on the access to opioids. When regular opioids as morphine are not tolerated or are insufficient, adjuvant opioids as methadone are an affordable and effective analgesic. Aim: The aim of the project was to describe the pattern of use and clinical experiences of methadone in patients with cancer-related pain at a low-resource hospital in Hyderaba

Spatially different annual cycles but similar haemosporidian infections in distant populations of collared sand martins

BackgroundPopulations of long-distance migratory birds experience different environments and are consequently exposed to different parasites throughout their annual cycles. Though, specific whereabouts and accompanied host-parasite interactions remain unknown for most migratory passerines. Collared sand martins (Riparia riparia) breeding in the western Palaearctic spend the nonbreeding period in A

Social mättnad, relationell hunger : strategisk kommunikation i förändring när matindustrin utmanas av folklig misstro

The purpose of the dissertation is to provide new knowledge on how strategic communication can be understood and practiced when companies and authorities are challenged by digitally organized citizens who mobilize dissatisfaction and question traditional experts. The dissertation is based on a relational perspective, which means interest in how different actors constitute themselves and relate to

Is Cloud RAN a Feasible Option for Industrial Communication Network?

Cloud RAN (C-RAN) is a promising paradigm for the next generation radio access network infrastructure, which offers centralised and coordinated base-band signal processing in a cloud-based BBU pool. This requires extremely low latency responses to achieve real-time signal processing. In this paper, we analysed the challenges to introduce cloud native model for signal processing in C-RAN. We studie

Humanistisk kunskap och kompetens : En rapport om alumners nytta av studier i humaniora och teologi

Rapporten Humanistisk kunskap och kompetens presenterar och analyserar resultaten från en omfattande alumnundersökning riktad till Lunds universitets humaniora- och teologistudenter genomförd 2019. Undersökningen hade ett särskilt fokus på arbetsmarknad och arbetslivskoppling, men ställde även bredare frågor om humanistiska kompetenser och identitet.I rapportens första del redovisas vad alumnerna

Soil moisture change analysis under watershed management practice using in situ and remote sensing data in a paired watershed

Soil moisture, vegetation cover, and land surface temperature are vital variables in water-energy balance, eco-hydrological processes, and water resources management, which can be influenced by watershed management activities. This research focused on the spatial and temporal variability of soil moisture, vegetation cover, land surface temperature, and Temperature-Vegetation Dryness Index (TVDI) u

Experimental investigation of water absorption and penetration in clay brick masonry under simulated uniform water spray exposure

In this study, we performed an experimental investigation of water absorption and penetration in clay brick masonry exposed to cyclic water spraying by employing a newly developed test setup. Several parameters, including brick absorption properties and different mortar joint profiles, were investigated. The specimens were exposed to a uniform water spray rate ranging between 1.7 and 3.8 l/m2/h, a

Distribution of under-5 deaths in the neonatal, postneonatal, and childhood periods : a multicountry analysis in 64 low- and middle-income countries

BACKGROUND: As under-5 mortality rates declined all over the world, the relative distribution of under-5 deaths during different periods of life changed. To provide information for policymakers to plan for multi-layer health strategies targeting child health, it is essential to quantify the distribution of under-5 deaths by age groups.METHODS: Using 245 Demographic and Health Surveys from 64 low-

Dietary intake of advanced glycation endproducts and risk of hepatobiliary cancers : a multinational cohort study

Advanced glycation endproducts (AGEs) may contribute to liver carcinogenesis because of their pro-inflammatory and pro-oxidative properties. Diet is a major source of AGEs, but there is sparse human evidence on the role of AGEs intake in liver cancer aetiology. We examined the association between dietary AGEs and the risk of hepatobiliary cancers in the European Prospective Investigation into Canc

Fighting microbial infections with force fields: Evaluating conformational ensembles of intrinsically disordered proteins

The main goal of this compilation thesis has been to investigate the conformational ensemble of the intrinsically disordered protein (IDP) histatin 5 by using a mixture of experimental and computational techniques including, but not limited to, small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS), circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy, atomistic molecular dynamics (MD) simulations, and coarse-grained Monte Carlo (M
