Facing the urgency to tackle societal challenges, social innovations come to the fore as promising avenues due to their potential of invoking change of systems. Scholars refer to transformative social innovations in this respect: processes through which dominant institutions within a socio-material context are challenged, altered, or replaced by social innovations. Alas, turning the transformative

The article traces the Lundagård rune-stone on its road in Lund – from its origin as a part of a Viking Age monument probably at Helgonabacken, its reuse at the All Saints monastery, where it was rediscovered in 1682, to the Lundagård park in the 1740s, its reuse in a memorial in the old Botanical Garden in 1868 to its location in the university library since 1957.

Popular Abstract in Swedish Under det senaste decenniet har risker med och alternativ till allogent blod (blod från främmande givare) debatterats mycket pga. risken för smitta, allergiska reaktioner, samt starka indicier som talar för att blod från främmande givare kan påverka immunförsvaret hos mottagaren. Därför vill man gärna begränsa mängden tillfört givarblod under kirurgiska ingrepp på barn,In children, it is often desirable to minimize allogenic blood transfusion, and this thesis explores the physiology of an alternative method of managing perioperative blood loss: hemodilution with Ringer´s dextran. Methods Clinical studies: Arterial pressure, superior caval venous oxygen saturation (ScvO2) and blood lactate concentration (L) were studied during bone marrow harvesting (BMH) on 23

BACKGROUND: Parkinson's disease is typically treated with oral dopamine replacement therapies; however, long-term treatment leads to motor complications and, occasionally, impulse control disorders caused by intermittent stimulation of dopamine receptors and off-target effects, respectively. We aimed to assess the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of bilateral, intrastriatal delivery of ProSavin,

Regulation of development and entry into sporulation is critical for fungi to ensure survival of unfavorable environmental conditions. Here we present an analysis of gene sets regulating sporulation in the homothallic ascomycete Ashbya gossypii. Deletion of components of the conserved pheromone/starvation MAP kinase cascades, e.g., STE11 and STE7, results in increased sporulation. In kar3 mutants

In a method and a mobile communications receiver for performing signal measurements, signal measurement data is received from at least one base station during at least part of a measurement period. Each measurement period comprises a number of non-equidistant snapshot measurement windows during which the receiver receives signal measurement data. At least one average signal strength value of the s

OBJECTIVE: To determine what constitutes normal cervical changes during the second half of pregnancy in parous women delivering at term. DESIGN: The study comprises 21 healthy, pregnant parous women who all gave birth at term. They were examined with transvaginal ultrasound every two weeks from 24 gestational weeks until delivery. Cervical length and width were measured. The inner cervical os was

This paper investigates if educational attainment among females when they are young affects the incidence of child marriage. There is a general agreement that education delays the time of marriage and thus works as a protective factor against child marriage. However, there is no causal estimate of education on age at marriage. By using educational variation induced from the Indonesian Sekolah Dasa

There are many applications of microprocessors in embedded applications, where power efficiency becomes a critical requirement, e.g. wearable or mobile devices in healthcare, space instrumentation and handheld devices. One of the methods of achieving low power operation is by simplifying the device architecture. RISC/CISC processors consume considerable power because of their complexity, which is

The aim of this qualitative study has been to analyze how young adults with Yugoslavian background form and sustain relations across national borders. The study covers second-generation migrants (hereby titled as young adults with Yugoslavian background) who are born in Sweden, with Yugoslavian born parents that came to Sweden as refugees between the years of 1990-1998. Ten semi-structured intervi

Optionsavtal om överlåtelse av fast egendom är sedan lång tid tillbaka ogil-tiga i svensk rätt. Ett optionsavtal är ett avtal om framtida överlåtelse. Det finns inget direkt lagstöd som förbjuder sådana avtal för fastigheter, men HD har i en rad rättsfall etablerat en praxis där avtalen inte tillmäts giltighet. Annorlunda är det för optionsavtal för bostadsrätter. Trots liknande form-krav, och utaOption agreements on property purchases have for a long time been invalid in Swedish law. An option agreements is an agreement on a future purchase. There is no direct legal support that invalidates such contracts, but the swe-dish supreme court (HD) has established such a practice in a number of legal cases. It is however different for such agreements for condominiums. Despite similar form requir

Every year people are vacationing thousands of miles away from home. Low cost tickets and packaged trips have made exotic tourism more affordable. The mass tourism developed during the 50s and today, the travelling- and tourism industry is the third biggest industry in the world. Only the oil industry and the building sector are bigger. The biggest environmental load caused by tourism is the trans

Cognitive robots, able to adapt their actions based on sensory information and the management of uncertainty, have begun to find their way into manufacturing settings. However, the full potential of these robots has not been fully exploited, largely due to the lack of vertical integration with existing IT infrastructures, such as the manufacturing execution system (MES), as part of a large-scale cCognitive robots, able to adapt their actions based on sensory information and the management of uncertainty, have begun to find their way into manufacturing settings.

Airborne Laser Scanning (ALS) is used to acquire three-dimensional (3D) city model data over large areas. However, because of the long ALS update cycle, building information models (BIM) could be utilized to maintain city models. In this study, we designed, implemented, and evaluated a methodology to formalize the integration of BIM data into city models. CityGML models were created from BIM data

Objective: To investigate if the extent of absent end-diastolic flow (AEDF) on umbilical artery (UA) Doppler velocimetry predicts pregnancy outcome. Methods: This was a retrospective observational study based on data from 25 000 Doppler examinations of UA flow performed between 1998 and 2017 at the Blood Flow Laboratory, Level III Perinatal Center, Lund, Sweden. All pregnancies with AEDF in the UA

INTRODUCTION: Climate change is one of the 21st century's biggest public health issues and health care contributes up to 10% of the emissions of greenhouse gases in developed countries. About 15 million laparoscopic procedures are performed annually worldwide and single-use medical equipment is increasingly used during these procedures. Little is known about costs and environmental footprint of th
