Background: Short hamstring muscles can cause several problems for children with cerebral palsy. The results of the clinical measurement of hamstring length are often used in decision-making about treatment of children with cerebral palsy. There are different ways of performing this measurement. The aim of this study was to evaluate the interrater reliability of the unilateral and bilateral measur
Purpose: The development of blood biomarkers that reflect Alzheimer’s disease (AD) pathophysiology (phosphorylated tau and amyloid-β) has offered potential as scalable tests for dementia differential diagnosis and early detection. In 2019, the Geneva AD Biomarker Roadmap Initiative included blood biomarkers in the systematic validation of AD biomarkers. Methods: A panel of experts convened in Nove
This paper describes a measurement of light-by-light scattering based on Pb+Pb collision data recorded by the ATLAS experiment during Run 2 of the LHC. The study uses 2.2 nb−1 of integrated luminosity collected in 2015 and 2018 at sNN = 5.02 TeV. Light-by-light scattering candidates are selected in events with two photons produced exclusively, each with transverse energy ETγ> 2.5 GeV, pseudorapidi
A search for heavy resonances decaying into a pair of Z bosons leading to ℓ+ℓ-ℓ′ +ℓ′ - and ℓ+ℓ-νν¯ final states, where ℓ stands for either an electron or a muon, is presented. The search uses proton–proton collision data at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV collected from 2015 to 2018 that corresponds to the integrated luminosity of 139 fb - 1 recorded by the ATLAS detector during Run 2 of the Lar
Large-scale radiation emergency scenarios involving protracted low dose rate radiation exposure (e.g. a hidden radioactive source in a train) necessitate the development of high throughput methods for providing rapid individual dose estimates. During the RENEB (Running the European Network of Biodosimetry) 2019 exercise, four EDTA-blood samples were exposed to an Iridium-192 source (1.36 TBq, Tech
Background and Aims: The transition from outcrossing to selfing is a frequent evolutionary shift in flowering plants and is predicted to result in reduced allocation to pollinator attraction if plants can self-pollinate autonomously. The evolution of selfing is associated with reduced visual floral signalling in many systems, but effects on floral scent have received less attention. We compared mu
The preparation of oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) catalysts with high activity, stability and low platinum loading has always been the focus of research. The single-atom platinum supported catalyst greatly improves the utilization of platinum, but the catalytic activity and selectivity are greatly affected by the platinum coordination environment, and the pre
This article shows that women’s formal political citizenship is intertwined with the right to the city. Using Carol Bacchi’s ‘What’s the Problem Represented to be’ approach, we study how female municipal councillors argued for more public toilets in Sweden's three largest cities. In their motions, the lack of public conveniences was mainly related to a binary discourse of gender, and arguments ref
Abstract Author: Gentiana Hodza Titel: Aktivering – ett krav eller en motprestation? Supervisor: Torbjörn Hjort Assessor: Anders Östnäs The aim of this study was to examine how the social worker regards his/her work and the expectations set on them, and also what possibilities they have in affecting the activation requirements for assistance recipients. The study was based on six social workers
After the failure to respond adequately to the changing patterns of conflict and violence after the end of the Cold War, human security was popularized in the 1990s as an alternative concept to security more suitable to face threats to individual security. Ever since, the question about what human security should entail has seen much discussion. This paper examines the different discourses which i
Miljöpåverkan från privat konsumtion fortsätter att öka och strukturerna i det konsumtionsinriktade samhället främjar idag konsumtionsmönster som i själva verket är ohållbara. En stark övertygelse är att hållbara livsstilar kan uppnås genom tekniska lösningar, då minskad konsumtion inte är en politiskt önskvärd lösning. Konsumenterna kan dock inte förväntas bära hela ansvaret i att driva en övergå
Bakgrund: Europas utveckling styrs för närvarande av Kommissionens strategi Europa 2020. Det huvudsakliga syftet med strategin är att utveckla en konkurrenskraftig och social marknadsekonomi. Direktivet om offentlig upphandling 2014/24/EU används här som ett sätt för att säkerställa den mest effektiva användningen av offentliga medel och samtidigt garantera fri tillgång till marknaden. För att kun
Denna magisteruppsats undersöker hur medarbetarna vid Lunds energi upplever det ITbaserade kompetensverktyget Comaea. Syftet var att utvärdera om det IT-baserade kompetensverktyget Comaea påverkar medarbetares möjlighet att utvecklas inom organisationen Lunds energi. För att undersöka detta har en utvärdering genomförts, utvärderingen genomfördes med hjälp av intervjuer med medarbetare vid Lunds e
Football supporters’ violence in Sweden is a current societal issue, which lacks experimental investigations. The current study aims to address this gap by investigating social and cognitive factors in order to better understand the mechanisms behind legitimation of violence towards supporters of the opposing team (the out-group). A football supporter and a social science student samples answered
Syftet med studien har varit att identifiera vilka drivkrafter och hinder som finns för källsortering hosindividen och hur man baserat på dessa lämpligen kan utforma avfallsutrymmen, generellt och specifikt isjukhusmiljö. Examensarbetet utgörs av en litteraturstudie samt en fallstudie på urologmottagningen påuniversitetssjukhuset i Malmö. Fallstudien består av kvantitativa mätningar av avfallsmäng

Introduction: There is a need for risk stratification of emergency department (ED) chest pain patients. The Global Registry of Acute Coronary Events risk score (GRACE RS) predicts adverse events in patients with confirmed acute coronary syndrome (ACS), and has been validated on unselected ED patients with chest pain. Clinical gestalt is the unstructured overall clinical assessment, based on the ph
