Plasma low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) has been associated with aortic stenosis in observational studies; however, randomized trials with cholesterol-lowering therapies in individuals with established valve disease have failed to demonstrate reduced disease progression.

The new generation of mobile devices, such smartphones and tablets, make users no longer constrained to traditional devices, such as PCs and laptops, in order to access needed information. This has given rise to an innovation in Business Intelligence (BI) coined mobile BI, which is currently embraced by different organizations. Information systems (IS) innovations are in general accompanied by “bu

Popular Abstract in Swedish I mitt arbete som neuropsykolog vid minnesmottagningen på psykogeriatriska kli¬niken (numera VO kognitiv medicin) vid Universitetssjukhuset i Lund har jag träffat många patienter som beskrivit besvärande minnessvårigheter i sin vardag. Patienterna berättade om svårigheter att lära sig nya rutiner på arbetet, att komma ihåg namn eller var de hade lagt sina saker. Många aThe overall aim of this thesis was to enhance the understanding of patients with subjective memory complaints. The thesis is based on three empirical studies examining middle-aged and young old (< 70 years) non-demented patients assessed at a memory clinic. In the first study the personality characteristics of the patients were compared with a Swedish normative sample. The patients scored higher o

The purpose of this work was to study how the pixel size of digital detectors can affect shape determination of microcalcifications in mammography. Screen-film mammograms containing microcalcifications clinically proven to be indicative of malignancy were digitised at 100 lines/mm using a high-resolution Tango drum scanner. Forty microcalcifications were selected to cover an appropriate range of s

Photodynamic therapy for the treatment of cancer relies on the presence of light, sensitizer and oxygen. By monitoring these three parameters during the treatment a better understanding and treatment control could possibly be achieved. Here we present data from in vivo treatments of solid skin tumors using an instrument for interstitial photodynamic therapy with integrated dosimetric monitoring. B

A recent study of ours suggested that the very presence of a Teachable Agent (TA) from a mathematics learning game might affect students’ test performance when the TA reappeared in the margin of a regular, digital math test. We hypothesized that this effect, which seemed to particularly target low-achievers, was due to the students’ mindset changing from that of “taking a test” to that of “teachin

In this article we define a new concept that has not previously been theorized: non-Muslim Islam. We argue that theories and methodologies within Islamic studies produce a hierarchy between Muslim and non-Muslim productions of Islam, prioritizing the first. However, this article highlights that Islam may be produced for other purposes than belief in a deity; Islam may for example be important in p

This chapter examines the evolution of social class segregation in the city of Landskrona during the twentieth century. The city’s population was initially spatially mixed with regards to social class but became more segregated with industrialization. The study reveals that the segregation of higher white-collar workers increased drastically from 1940 to 1960, with a concentration of this group in

Due to the new generation of mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets, users are no longer constrained to their traditional devices such as PCs and laptops in order to access the information they need. This has given rise to a new trend in Business Intelligence (BI) coined mobile BI. This new term reflects an organizing vision, created by a broad community, which is prominent during the com

We explore whether off-the-shelf accounting solutions are used or not used in management control. This study explores the usage of accounting solutions such as ERP, “hybrid ERP”, and “best-ofbreed” (BoB). Previous research highlights the problem that ERP has a “moderate” impact on management control but no study addresses whether hybrid ERP and BoB adopters experience the same problem. The explora
