Bakgrund Muskelaktivering och muskelkraft i quadriceps påverkas av bland annat knävinkeln. Sambandet mellan dessa är inte fastställt. Elektromyografi (EMG) används för att undersöka muskelaktivering och ge information om muskelaktivering och muskeltrötthet. Vridmomentet beräknas genom kraft multiplicerat med hävarm. Syfte Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka aktivering av de ytliga quadriceps
This thesis aimed to explore the binding pocket of galectin-8N and galectin-3C. Both structure-based drug design and fragment-based drug discovery were utilized in this project, exemplifying the benefits of the different approaches. Structural determination of the proteins in complex with both high affinity ligands, and small fragments was achieved through x-ray crystallography. The structures of
Abstract: This thesis is an attempt to evaluate the pre-Christian and Christian and cult-place continuity question. This is done by investigating intervisibility between Christian Churches and pre-Christian grave monuments within the province of Halland, Sweden. This analysis was done via large statistical GIS databases of which viewshed analysis was applied to, which in turn was then interpreted
Reaching intended effects of the covid-19 pandemic vaccination is dependent on both coverage rates and time. Without vaccine mandates in Sweden, communication strategists have become essential to succeed. Vaccine hesitancy is complex with reasons differing on an individual level. This makes mass communication suboptimal, but also mainly what is used due to practical reasons. Consequently, understa

This study investigates teachers’ perspectives on the use of gamification in programming courses at Lund University’s Faculty of Engineering (LTH), focusing on implementation within the Moodle learning platform. Using a qualitative approach, semi-structured interviews were conducted with instructors who integrate gamification elements such as points, levels, progress bars, and immediate feedback i
Abstrakt Denna uppsats syftar till att undersöka hur Albanien har gått från en planekonomi till marknadsekonomi och vilka tillväxteffekter detta har haft. För att undersöka hur transitionen till marknadsekonomi har gått till har jag främst använt mig av teorier från Gros och Steinherr (2004), där de sammanfattat vilka områden i ekonomin som behöver genomgå reformer och därmed anpassa sig till mark
The aim of this study is to understand whether globalization has any effects on modern democracy and if so to see whether it can be replaced by something else – something larger than democracy within the nation-state. The aim was also to find out whether a cosmopolitan democracy is possible among nation-states with the help of cosmopolitan theory. In order to receive this information the author ha
Neurotensin regulates both satiety and breast cancer growth in the experimental setting, but little is known about its role in the development of breast cancer or cardiometabolic disease in humans.
Background. The estimation of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is one tool to detect renal disease. The most used biomarker remains serum creatinine and the European Kidney Function Consortium (EKFCcrea ) equation is the most validated in Europe. More recently, cystatin C has been proposed as a biomarker. We studied the performances of the EKFC equations in a large cohort of subjects according to
The leadership literature has been faulted for framing leaders (and followers) as rational and disembodied information processers. This chapter presents a review of studies that go against this tendency by focusing on how materiality, embodiment, and aesthetics are involved in leadership communication. A number of different perspectives are highlighted in relation to the three focal themes, as wel
BACKGROUND: Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients, with or without neuropsychiatric SLE (NPSLE), exhibit greater neuronal impairment compared to healthy individuals in terms of neuronal damage, magnet resonance imaging (MRI) changes and cognitive dysfunction. Interferon (IFN)-α is a key immunopathogenic driver of SLE, being persistently overexpressed in the majority of patients. This longitu
Low vaccination coverage against SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) is a public health concern. The aim of this study was to identify barriers and motivators associated with COVID-19 vaccination and develop a vaccine acceptance scoring system. From the overall population residing in Skåne county Sweden in 2022 (n = 1 384 531), 3600 randomly selected individuals (aged ≥18 years) received a survey. Questions wer
