Forskarna inom detta område arbetar med forskning om bruk, skadligt bruk och beroende av alkohol och andra droger, ofta ur ett socialvetenskapligt perspektiv. Även beroendeproblem kopplade till spel om pengar och dopning berörs. Forskningen rör såväl människors livsvillkor och erfarenheter som vårdens, socialtjänstens och andra samhällsaktörers arbete. Forskningen har en bred metodologisk ansats oResearchers in this area study the use, harmful use, and dependence on alcohol and other drugs, often from a social science perspective. Gambling-related addiction problems and doping are also included. The research addresses both people’s living conditions and experiences, and the work of healthcare services, social services, and other societal actors. It takes a broad methodological approach and

Affärsrättsligt centrum vid Lunds universitet, ACLU , bildades 2016 av förmögenhets- och affärsrättsligt verksamma forskare vid Lunds universitet. Avsikten med ACLU är att såväl samla som stärka de vitala och kraftfulla forskningsmiljöer på det affärsjuridiska området som finns inom Lunds universitet och göra dem såväl nationellt som internationellt konkurrenskraftiga. För en framgångsrik forskninLund University Centre for Business Law (Swedish abbr: ACLU) was founded in 2016 by researchers at Lund University. The purpose of ACLU is both to assemble and to strengthen the necessary and forceful research environments that exist at Lund University, and to make them both nationally and international competitive. An intense exchange of experiences and knowledge between the University and the pu

Avd. bedriver grundforskning inom mikrobiologi, immunologi och glykobiologi, samt överbryggande forskning med klinisk inriktning. Molekylär bakteriell patogenes avser de mekanismer bakterier använder för att orsaka sjukdom med särskilt fokus kring infektioner i luftvägar, magtarmkanal, urinvägar och hud. Patogenerna orsakar intrikata cellbiologiska effekter. Den immunologiska forskningen inom avd.

Introduction: Complicated perianal disease (cPD) may be the sole presentation of Crohn’s disease (CD). The role of small-bowel capsule endoscopy (SBCE) in the diagnostic algorithm of cPD is unclear. We aimed to evaluate the role of SBCE as a diagnostic tool, in patients with cPD, after a negative standard workup for CD. Methods: A multicenter, retrospective, cross-sectional study, in patients with

IMPORTANCE: Atrial fibrillation (AF), the most prevalent sustained arrhythmia, portends higher risk of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality, and is associated with quantifiable impairment in quality of life. While physical activity is widely recognized for its cardiovascular benefits, recent evidence challenges its role in the development of AF. OBSERVATIONS: Emerging data suggest a U-shaped rel

Let V be an n-set, and let X be a random variable taking values in the power-set of V . Suppose we are given a sequence of random coupons X1 , X2 , ..., where the Xi are independent random variables with distribution given by X. The covering time T is the smallest integer t ≥ 0 such that the union of the first t Xi's equal V . The distribution of T is important in many applications in combinatoria

We investigate Newton's method for complex polynomials of arbitrary degree d, normalized so that all their roots are in the unit disk. For each degree d, we give an explicit set S-d of 3.33d log(2) d(1 + o(1)) points with the following universal property: for every normalized polynomial of degree d there are d starting points in S-d whose Newton iterations find all the roots with a low number of i

Transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) is routinely required during pre-participation screening in the presence of symptoms, family history of sudden cardiac death or cardiomyopathies <40-year-old, murmurs, abnormal ECG findings or in the follow-up of athletes with a history of cardiovascular disease (CVD). TTE is a cost-effective first-line imaging modality to evaluate the cardiac remodeling due to

Gruppen driver forskning kring mätning och behandling av svår kronisk andnöd (dyspné) samt behandling av kronisk andningssvikt. Gruppen har nära samarbete med ledande forskare nationellt och ett internationellt forskningsnätverk kring klinisk dyspnéforskning. Studier inkluderar epidemiologiska analyser, Cochrane meta-analyser, kliniska kohortstudier samt randomiserade kontrollerade behandlingsstudThe research group focuses on the mechanisms, measurement and treatment of severe chronic breathlessness (dyspnea) and management of chronic respiratory failure. The research is conducted in close collaboration with leading researchers nationally and an international research network. Studies include epidemiological analyses, Cochrane meta-analyses, clinical cohorts and randomized controlled trial

Enheten för psykiatrisk epidemiologi och folkhälsa studerar ämnesområden som exempelvis psykossjukdomar, suicidologi, beroendetillstånd och neuropsykiatriska tillstånd med klassiska och moderna epidemiologiska metoder. Dessa frågor belyses dels utifrån ett kliniskt perspektiv med traditionella frågeställningar gällande riskfaktorer, utfall, överlevnad och farmakoepidemiologi, dels utifrån ett folkThe Unit for Psychiatric Epidemiology and Public Health studies subject areas such as psychotic disorders, suicidology, substance use disorders, and neuropsychiatric conditions using classical and modern epidemiological methods. These issues are examined both from a clinical perspective, with traditional research questions regarding risk factors, outcomes, survival, and pharmacoepidemiology, and f

Introduction: Device-aided therapies (DATs) have been developed to provide continuous drug delivery (CDD) to people with advanced Parkinson’s disease (PD) whose symptoms can no longer be effectively managed with oral or transdermal therapy. Intrajejunal infusion of levodopa–carbidopa intestinal gel (LCIG), delivered via the CADD Legacy 1400 pump, is an established CDD option, while levodopa–entaca
