Hydraulic force aids diastolic filling of the left ventricle (LV) by facilitating basal movement of the atrioventricular plane. The short-axis atrioventricular area difference (AVAD) determines direction and magnitude of this force. Patients with atrial septal defect (ASD) have reduced LV filling due to the left-to-right shunt across the atrial septum and thus potentially altered hydraulic force.
Some years ago, I was asked to be a junior researcher in a European research project about interdisciplinarity. I was delighted, of course, and excited about the opportunity to explore the problems and possibilities of interdisciplinarity. On the afternoon of the same day, I had a meeting with two experienced academics. I told them I had been invited to take part in a research project and both ent
The concentrations of gas-phase potassium hydroxide (KOH), potassium chloride (KCl) and atomic potassium (K(g)) were quantitatively measured from the near-surface to downstream area of burning pinewood pellets by a newly developed photofragmentation tunable diode laser absorption spectroscopy (PF-TDLAS) technique to reveal the original form of the released potassium. The novel arrangement of the P

Verksamhetsmål och resursfördelning för Ekonomihögskolan vid Lunds universitet 2025 Fastställd av Fakultetsstyrelsen för Ekonomihögskolan 2024-12-17 STYR 2024/3100 2 Verksamhetsmål 2025 Under 2025 avser Ekonomihögskolan fokusera på internationellt genomslag (international impact) samt en transformativ lärandeprocess där arbetsmarknadsrelevansen har ett stort utrymme. Detta är två väl valda områden
BACKGROUND: The Apnea-Hypopnea Index (AHI), the standard measure of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), has limitations in reflecting disease severity.RESEARCH QUESTION: Is high hypoxic burden (HB) more strongly associated with major cardiovascular and cerebrovascular adverse events (MACCEs) than AHI≥ 30/h?STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS: This secondary analysis of the RICCADSA observational cohort included 3
Background: Patients with diabetes admitted to emergency care face a higher risk of complications, including prolonged hospital stays, admissions to the intensive care unit and mortality. Aim: To develop a machine learning (ML) model to predict 30-day mortality in patients with diabetes admitted to the emergency department (ED). Design and setting: A cohort study utilizing data from all nine ED’s
The purple color of the barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) grain is attributed to anthocyanins which are beneficial for human health. Synthesis of these pigments in both grain and vegetative tissues is controlled by ANT1 and ANT2 that belong to the families R2R3-MYB and bHLH of transcription factors, respectively. Here, we investigated the role of the Ant2 gene in pigmentation of grains compared to veget
Objectives Assessment of Different NEoplasias in the adneXa (ADNEX) and Risk of Malignancy Index (RMI) are models that estimate the risk of malignancy in ovarian masses based on clinical and ultrasound information. The aim is to perform a meta-analysis of studies that compared the performance of the two models in the same patients (‘head-to-head comparison’). Design Systematic review and meta-anal
Future climate scenarios are predicting considerable threats to sustainable maize production in arid and semi-arid regions. These adverse impacts can be minimized by adopting modern agricultural tools to assess and develop successful adaptation practices. A multi-model approach (climate and crop) was used to assess the impacts and uncertainties of climate change on maize crop. An extensive field s
Climate change and land-use change represent a dual threat to terrestrial ecosystem functioning. In the tropics, forest conversion to agriculture is occurring alongside warming and more pronounced periods of drought. Rainfall after drought induces enormous dynamics in microbial growth (potential soil carbon storage) and respiration (determining carbon loss), affecting the ecosystem carbon budget.
Course: FEKN90, Degree project for Master of Science in Business and Economics (30 ECTS) Authors: Petrea Godderidge, Nicole Johansson and Lina Larsson Supervisor: Annette Cerne Key words: Generation Y, store loyalty, private labels, grocery retailer Purpose: The purpose of this thesis is to investigate what impact private labels, in relation to other store loyalty driving factors within the
Gesture has been acknowledged as a pivotal part of delivery in political rhetoric for millennia. Typically, politicians are seen as adhering to a style of gesturing encouraging pragmatic gestures, namely those that operate on the level of discourse such as providing emphasis, while being discouraged from using representational gestures, namely those depicting the content of speech iconically, as t
Background: Preparing retrospective dose data for risk modeling using large study cohorts can be time consuming as it often requires patient-wise manual interventions. This is especially the case when considering organs at risk (OARs) not systematically delineated historically. Therefore, we aimed to develop and test a semi-automated workflow for cohort-wise preparation of radiotherapy data from t
Background and purpose: The study aims to evaluate dosimetric properties of hypofractionated treatment plans integrating focal boost, using registered whole-mount histopathology (WMHP) as reference standard. Methods: Fifteen men from the PAMP trial (EudraCT: 2015-005046-55) were included. Participants had ≥ 1 ISUP Grade group ≥ 4 lesion and underwent [68Ga]prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)
This PhD project aimed to investigate cerebellar contribution to cognition from a translational perspective by integrating neuropsychological assessment and neuroimaging, incorporating neurocognitive and motor tests with 7T Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The results are clinically significant as they identify nonverbal cognitive deficits that often may go unnoticed in clinical practice, particu
OBJECTIVES: Asphalt is frequently used as road pavement and consists of bitumen as a binder, and fillers. Bitumen consists of a complex mixture of hydrocarbons, where a minor component is polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). Many PAHs are classified as carcinogenic to humans. Bitumen fumes from road paving have been classified as possibly carcinogenic. Paving and milling are open processes gen
PURPOSE: To develop Mexico's first methodologically rigorous clinical practice guideline for the management of adult overweight and obesity. The target audiences are interdisciplinary healthcare professionals across healthcare systems who are the first point of contact for patients with obesity in Mexico, patients, and health system decision makers.RECENT FINDINGS: A review of recent international
