The aim of this part of the RightTimePlaceCare study (WP2) was to describe and analyse the European health, social care and welfare systems, advocacy and informal caregiver support systems for patients with dementia. The description and analyses covers the continuum of care from diagnosis, informal care, contributions from civic society, public home care and the intermediate forms of care, to the
Vaccines may have non-specific effects as suggested mainly in mortality studies from low-income countries. The objective was to examine the effects of BCG and smallpox vaccinations on subsequent risk of lymphoma and leukaemia in a Danish population experiencing rapid out-phasing of these vaccines. In a background cohort (N=47,622) from the Copenhagen School Health Records Register, cases of leukae
Popular Abstract in Swedish SAMMANFATTNING PÅ SVENSKA Grupp B streptokocker (GBS) Grupp B streptokocker (GBS), på latin Streptococcus agalactiae, är det vanligaste fyndet vid bakteriella infektioner, som blodförgiftning (sepsis), hjärnhinneinflammation (meningit) och lunginflammation (pneumoni) hos nyfödda barn. Sjukdomsförloppet är ofta våldsamt och livshotande. Sedan 1970-talet har det skett enABSTRACT Streptococci constitute a heterogeneous group of Gram-positive bacteria, divided into different serological groups on the basis of antigenic differences in a cell wall-associated carbohydrate. This thesis describes related surface proteins expressed by bacteria in two of these groups, the group B streptococcus (GBS) and the group A streptococcus (GAS). GBS is an encapsulated bacterium th
The UN Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 7 states that access to affordable, reliable, sustainable, and modern energy should be provided for all by 2030. The effects on socioeconomic development by access to safe, affordable, and clean electricity stands out as educational benefits, income improvement, and health progress. However, the electrification rate has been slow for sub-Saharan Africa and
In this paper, a revisit to the topic of electromagnetic scattering by a randomly oriented obstacle is made. The focus is on a general polarization state of the incident field. Specifically, the left and right circular polarizations are treated. We derive the analytic expressions of the scattering observables, such as the orientational averages of the extinction, scattering and absorption cross se
In this paper we present a computational offloading strategy with graceful degradation for executing Model Predictive Control using the cloud. We show a method which allows for seamless control assistance and design of flexible controllers using the edge cloud. We examplify using a cyber-physical-system at high frequency and illustrate how the system can be improved while keeping the computational
The relative contribution of different microbial groups to soil organic matter (SOM) turnover and utilisation of rhizodeposits during a cropping season has remained largely unknown. We used a long-term field experiment (started in 1956), in which C3 crops were replaced with C4 silage maize in 2000, to investigate dynamics of fungi and bacterial groups and their utilisation of ‘young-C4’ and ‘old-C
The aim of this study was to analyse how energy use, building physics properties and indoor environment data have been obtained in the initial evaluation phases of multifamily building renovations in Sweden. Between 1964 and 1975, approximately one million homes were built in Sweden. These buildings are now in need of renovation. To perform proper status assessment of a building before a renovatioThe aim of this study was to analyse how energy use, building physics properties and indoor environment data have been obtained in the initial evaluation phases of multifamily building renovations in Sweden.

The Commentator is a small-scale computer implementation of a model oftext production. The system simulates human behavior from the perceptionof events on a screen to the utterances. It is designed to allow anyone havingsome knowledge of Basic and access to a microcomputer to study the semantics of words (e.g. localization and movement predicates such asapproach, left/right, near, in front of, tur
Varje suicid är en personlig tragedi och representerar dessutom en omfattande samhällelig förlust. Problematiken bakom suicid är mångfacetterad och insatser behövs inom många olika domäner i samhället, bland annat finns ett stort behov av nya hälso- och sjukvårdsstrategier. Hälso- och sjukvårdskuratorn med sin tvärvetenskapliga utbildning har möjlighet att bidra till ett multifaktoriellt perspekti
Soil organic matter (SOM) decomposition in response to global change represents a critical uncertainty in coupled carbon (C) cycle-climate models. Much of this uncertainty arises from our limited mechanistic knowledge of the effects of organic C input frequency on SOM decomposition. Based on a three-source-partitioning isotopic approach (14C glucose addition to soil continuously labeled by C4 plan
Kapitlet diskuterar vilken roll systemintermediärer spelar för att främja innovation i lokala ekosystem. Fallet som studeras är hur Lunds kommun tillsammans med andra aktörer har valt att bygga upp en särskild organisation, Future by Lund, för att tillsammans driva frågor som rör samhällsutveckling. Utgångspunkten är att dagens innovationspolitiska insatser i stor utsträckning fokuserar på samhäll
Idag konsumerar byggbranschen 40% av världens resurser och ansvarar för 30% av allt avfall. Att bygga resurssnålt innebär att vi strävar att bevara material i bruk när behovet av byggnaden upphör, att vi använder material från förnybara källor och uppmuntrar till återbruk. För att bygga resurssnålt, hållbart och permanent krävs god planering, men vad händer när behovet är brådskande? Hyrda försk
