Objective To assess the role of four biomarkers of neuroendocrine activation and endothelial dysfunction in the longitudinal prediction of fragility fractures. Methods We analysed a population-based prospective cohort of 5415 community-dwelling individuals (mean age, 68.9±6.2 years) enrolled in the Malmö Preventive Project followed during 8.1±2.9 years, and investigated the longitudinal associati

Children spend a large percentage of their day with their classmates in school. Classmates are not only co-workers, but also individuals interacting socially as friends. The understanding of group affiliation and friendship interaction in school is of great importance to social work in school because of its implications on children’s wellbeing and academic performance. Several studies show that so

Apprenticeship training is a form of education that arouses a great deal of interest as regards the challenges that characterise conditions for young people on the current labour market. This is obvious both in Sweden and in other comparable countries. This chapter begin by illustrating the changed conditions for establishment of young people, a factor that may help to enhance understanding of why

20 september 2025 11:30 till 18:30 | Föreläsning Att en Kulturnatt i Lund kan börja redan vid lunchtid, det är sedan gammalt. Att Kunskapsstråket börjar i korsningen Sölvegatan/Biskopsgatan i Lund, det är också redan känt. Alltså: Varmt välkomna till Pufendorfinstitutet, Biskopsgatan 3, och lyssna till populärvetenskapliga föreläsningar av lundaforskare, besök två utsällningar i vårt vackra hus oc

This book is about the idea of the university in modern Germany. Its primary focus is how the transformation of the Humboldtian tradition gave direction to debates around higher education. By combining approaches from intellectual history, conceptual history and the history of knowledge, the study investigates the ways in which Humboldt’s ideas have been appropriated for various purposes in differ

The thesis compares different prepositions and verbal prefixes denoting direction in Ancient Greek. The corpus covers passages in Xenophon’s Anabasis where such directional elements are used. In this work, it has been examined how the usage of prepositions differs from that of prefixes when they denote a concrete motion in space, what reasons lie behind their usage, and how various directional ele

The development of social media challenges the established conceptualizations of resources in social movements. While previous theories largely illustrated social movements as constantly searching for new and more resources, the development of social media has allowed some actors to gather and mobilize extensive resources rapidly, calling for an analysis of resource abundance. The aim of this arti

Reducing train delays important in many countries, even in those like Japan, where punctuality is already high. There is a clearpattern across the literature that the delays typically occur at stations and are recovered on line sections. Previous work has shownthat one explanation for this is that trains interact at stations. When trains have different speeds or stopping patterns, overtakes areimp

Cities are the pinnacle of human change to the environment, creating unique types of ecosystems which present many challenges to local organisms: habitat fragmentation, introduced species, and various pollutants. Being crucibles of anthropogenic effects, urban ecosystems offer opportunities to understand how humans impact nature. Moreover, since a majority of the world’s population resides in citi

In this paper we study structure from motion problems for parallel cylinders. Using sparse keypoint correspondences is an efficient (and standard) way to solve the structure from motion problem. However, point features are sometimes unavailable and they can be unstable over time and viewing conditions. Instead, we propose a framework based on silhouettes of quadric surfaces, with special emphasis
