Purpose: To establish whether intraocular pressure (IOP) fluctuations contribute to the risk of developing glaucoma in patients with high-risk ocular hypertension. Methods: Ninety patients included in the Malmo Ocular Hypertension Study were examined every 3 months with office-hours diurnal tension curves and computerised perimetry. Patients were followed up prospectively for 10 years or until gla

The Baltic salmon has during the latter part of the 20th century been subjected to several threats. Most notable have been the high levels of contaminant release and a disease that causes early life mortality of the young. Ever since utilization of water power from the Swedish rivers began in the 1940ies, thus deminishing the natural breeding areas for the salmons, an extensive hatchery program ha

A review of a doctoral issertation on "The Visitation of the Sick in Swedish Medieval and Reformation Traditions".

Hydrotropic extraction (HEX) is a method for the delignification of lignocellulose that has been given increasing amounts of attention during the last couple of years. A hydrotrope is an amphiphilic substance, which, in high enough concentrations, can improve solubility of otherwise poorly soluble substances in water. The most commonly used substance for HEX-delignification is sodium xylenesulfona

This paper contains decision analytical approaches, conditions and models for the quantification of decision values for built environment systems. Specifically, (1) delta formulations of objective functions for decision value quantification are introduced, (2) conditions for decision value are identified and (3) action value analysis formulations are further developed. The delta objective function

Artikeln behandlar det museala arbetet inom Kongl. Museum från 1790-talet till och med 1850-talet, med omgestaltade rum, förvärv av samlingar, konservatorernas arbete och Konstakademiens utbildning av konstnärer. Under denna period växer museiprofessionen fram, vilket utgör förutsättningen för det nya museet på Blasieholmen på 1860-talet.

The concept of self-stigmatization is guided by a representational account of selfhood that fails to accommodate for resilience against, and recovery from, stigma. Mainstream research on self-stigma has portrayed it only as a reified self, that is, as collectively shared stereotypes representing individuals’ identity. Self-stigma viewed phenomenologically, however, elucidates what facilitates a st

An investigation on the different levels of interpretation of medieval architectural iconography. The architecture and sculpture of Lund cathedral is related to function, history, politics and religion.

Separately collected urine is an attractive potential fertilizer because of its high nutrient content, low cost, and inherent linkage of urban wastewater management and peri-urban agriculture. Urine from waterless urinals was applied to corn and lettuce plants to examine the impact of urine application rates and frequency on plant growth and soil parameters. In both corn and lettuce experiments, u

This article aims to demonstrate that building envelopes can be designed to improve the performance of public open space in Hong Kong. It investigates how such improvement can be used to negotiate between objective and regulation in planning standards. Addressing a research site with a publicly accessible pocket park in the Mong Kok area, the article explores generative potentials at the interface

Gemensamt ägande av energi har funnits i Sverige i många år. Med Ren energi-paketet från EU etableras nu en lagstiftning som introducerar ”energigemenskaper” som en ny organisationsform på energimarknaden. Målet med denna rapport är att introducera energigemenskap, hur det beskrivs i Ren energi-paketet och i Energimarknadsinspektionens förslag till ny lag för Energigemenskaper i Sverige. I rapport

Thermal actions are considered in the design of bridges, as temperature variations can lead to restraint stresses and subsequent cracking. However, load descriptions are in some cases oversimplified or incompatible with modern applications, and background studies are limited. This paper therefore aims to develop a more detailed load description for the load case describing temperature differences

Denna rapport sammanfattar några studier som på olika sätt syftar till att förbättra metodiken för att analysera samhällsekonomiska effekter av kollektivtrafikinvesteringar. Förbättringarna som behandlas är 1) vikten av att ta med bristande kapacitet (trängsel) i kalkylerna; 2) förbättrade beräkningar av driftskostnader; 3) effekter av tillgänglighet på arbetsmarknad och produktivitet (s k ”wider
