This keynote concerns social aspects of information seeking and use in professional life and how these are made explicit in information practices. In particular, the keynote focuses on how professionals’ activities in relation to information artefacts, as well as the artefacts in themselves, are socially constructed in context-bound practices. Arguments in favour of an interest in peoples’ informa

I boken diskuteras framför allt Raoul Wallenberg inför eftervärlden. Ett tema är den svenska inrikespolitiska debatten. Ett annat är det stora internationella intresset för honom som nådde en höjdpunkt under 1980-talet och som har avsatt monument, tv-serier och filmer till hans minne.

Artikeln ställer frågan vad det betyder när den från Tredje riket flydde, österrikisk-judiske basen Emanuel List på Metropolitan i New York i början av Andra världskriget sjunger orden om ”Das deutsche Schwert” i Wagners ”Lohengrin” (med historiskt ursprung i Vormärz-stämningarna 1848), och jämför med när den nationalsocialistiske Josef von Manowarda sjunger detsamma vid Bayreuthfestspelen 1936.

Popular Abstract in Swedish Ärftliga näthinnesjukdomar med tidig debut Elektrofysiologiska och genetiska studier Ärftliga näthinnesjukdomar är den vanligaste orsaken till allvarligt synhandikapp hos unga människor i dagens Sverige. De flesta av dessa sjukdomar kan ännu inte behandlas, men vi har under de senaste åren fått allt större insikt i de bakomliggande sjukdomsmekanismerna, tack vare att Hereditary retinal degenerations are the most frequent reason for severe visual handicap among young people in Scandinavia today. In the six papers included in this thesis the phenotypic expressions, with emphasis on the electrophysiological findings, of five different juvenile hereditary retinal degenerations are described. The diagnoses have been confirmed by genetic analysis. The retinal disord

This study investigated the urinary tract cytokine reponse to infection and the role of chemokines for neutrophil recruitment to the urinary tract. The results suggest that 1) IL-8 and TGFb are consitutively produced by uroepithelial cells in vivo, and that uroepithelial cells are stimulated to produce IL-1b and IL-6 by uropathogenic Escherichia coli. 2) MIP-2 (mouse IL-8 homologue) plays an impor

A PV/T collector have been developed and evaluated at the department of Energy and Building Design at the Technical University of Lund, LTH in Sweden. The PV/T, a “multifunctional solar window” made of PV cells laminated on solar absorbers, is placed in a window behind the glazing. The solar window is built into a single family house, Solgården, in Älvkarleö outside Gävle in the eastern part of Sw

Context: The authors wanted to assess whether the quality of published human-centric software engineering experiments was improving. This required a reliable means of assessing the quality of such experiments. Aims: The aims of the study were to confirm the usability of a quality evaluation checklist, determine how many reviewers were needed per paper that reports an experiment, and specify an ap

The intention of this chapter is neither a pure methodological nor a theoretical discussion, but instead, an empirical analysis which aims to understand variations in perceptions of global risks and environmental concern in a number of countries. The discussion, however, relies on methodological as well as theoretical perspectives concerning the shortcomings and pitfalls one encounters in comparin
