The workshop will focus on what first-year students to higher education needs to be successful and how a peer learning programme might address those needs. (~5 min for introduction)The workshop will start with a brainstorm session where participants in small groups will share thoughts and ideas on the question (~20 min for activity): “What would you like to affect with your new students? Provide s
We discovered structurally novel human calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR) allosteric agonists and compared their pharmacology to phenylalkylamine calcimimetics. 1-Benzothiazol-2-yl-1-(2,4-dimethyl-phenyl)-ethanol (AC-265347) activated CaSR signaling in cellular proliferation and phosphatidylinositol (PI) hydrolysis assays with potencies of 30 and 10 nM, respectively. (S)-1-Benzothiazol-2-yl-1-(2,4-di
For the past two decades, the ‘Normative Power Approach’ (NPA) has affected both academic and policymaking debates on the European Union (EU) in global politics. Since its publication in the Journal of Common Market Studies in 2002, the Normative Power article has remained one of the highest cited and most influential articles in the study of European integration. Importantly, the NPA is one of th
Background: Long-term consequences of posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) injury such as persistent posterior tibial translation and risk of osteoarthritis development are unclear. Additionally, little data is available describing the natural history of structural morphology of the ruptured PCL. The purpose of the study was to determine the long-term outcome after non-operatively treated PCL injury.
Background and Aims: Meckel's diverticulum (MD) may remain silent or be associated with adverse events such as GI bleeding. The main aim of this study was to evaluate indicative small-bowel capsule endoscopy (SBCE) findings, and the secondary aim was to describe clinical presentation in patients with MD. Methods: This retrospective European multicenter study included patients with MD undergoing SB
Coastal systems can act as filters for anthropogenic nutrient input into marine environments. Here, we assess the processes controlling the removal of phosphorus (P) and nitrogen (N) for four sites in the eutrophic Stockholm archipelago. Bottom water concentrations of oxygen (O2) and P are inversely correlated. This is attributed to the seasonal release of P from iron-oxide-bound (Fe-oxidebound) P
Azimuthal anisotropies of muons from charm and bottom hadron decays are measured in Pb+Pb collisions at sNN=5.02TeV. The data were collected with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider in 2015 and 2018 with integrated luminosities of 0.5nb−1 and 1.4nb−1, respectively. The kinematic selection for heavy-flavor muons requires transverse momentum 4
Background: In patients with early hepatocellular cancer (HCC) and preserved liver function, the choice between transplantation, resection and ablation and which factors to consider is not obvious and guidelines differ. In this national cohort study, we aimed to compare posttreatment survival in patients fulfilling predefined criteria, and to analyse preoperative risk factors that could influence
Aim: To compare vibrotactile sense, 5 years after carpal tunnel release in people with and without diabetes. Methods: Out of 35 people with diabetes and carpal tunnel syndrome, age- and gender-matched with 31 people without diabetes but with idiopathic carpal tunnel syndrome, 27 and 30 people, respectively, participated in this prolonged follow-up. Vibration perception threshold of the index and l
Bone mineral density (BMD) assessed by DXA is used to evaluate bone health. In children, total body (TB) measurements are commonly used; in older individuals, BMD at the lumbar spine (LS) and femoral neck (FN) is used to diagnose osteoporosis. To date, genetic variants in more than 60 loci have been identified as associated with BMD. To investigate the genetic determinants of TB-BMD variation alon
Background: The main objectives of this study were to evaluate the concordance between self-reported and registry-reported information regarding family history of breast cancer (BC), ovarian cancer (OvC) and other types of cancer in first-degree relatives of patients with early onset BC, and to determine the frequency of mutation carriers and non-mutation carriers. The secondary objective was to d
Background: A study was designed to assess a computer-based program for continuous registration of antibiotic resistance, statistics concerning severity of illness, and consumption of antibacterial drugs. Methods: The frequency of antibiotic resistance among bacteria in eight ICUs in southeastern Sweden was investigated yearly from 1995 through 1997. The antibiotic consumption in the ICUs was regi
Mellanskarven - oskyldigt dömd? För att dömas skyldig i Sverige ska det vara bortom rimligt tvivel att den tilltalande gjort sig skyldig till brottet. Mellanskarven (Phalacrocorax carbo sinensis) har på många håll runt om i Europa påståtts ligga bakom förändringar i fisksamhällen och ett försämrat fiske. I Krankesjön förefaller det saknas brottsoffer. Mellanskarven är en fågel som har ökat i anThis study analyzed highly detailed long-term information about occurrence of cormorants (Phalacrocorax carbo sinensis) and the fish community composition in lake Krankesjön, southern Sweden. Moreover, cormorant predation with regards to species and size preference were estimated using data from recovered PIT (Passive Integrated Transponders) tags. The results shows that the cormorant population h
Alexandra Skopal Klimatförändringen och dess effekt på byggnader. Hur kan fastighetsägare kartera riskerna? Klimatförändringen kommer innebära större risker för klimatrelaterade skador på byggnader och fastigheter. För att kunna skydda och anpassa byggnader mot skador behöver fastighetsägare kunna kartera vilka risker som deras byggnader är utsatta för. Lämpliga detaljerade karteringsmetoder More and more people become aware of climate change and that society needs to be adapted, so that damage can be minimized. Property owners, such as Riksbyggen, wants to be able to map the risks for their buildings. The purpose of this work is to find suitable methods for detailed risk mapping. First, a mapping has been conducted over damage on buildings that is linked to the climate in Scania. The
On the 30th-31st of January 2015 a cultural event took place at the concert and congress house of Uppsala in mid-Sweden; Uppsala Konsert & Kongress. The event was called "Irländskt!" (i.e. "Irish!") and consisted of concerts, workshops and sessions. This is a sociological study of the Irish traditional sessions at this event. The participants were studied as part of a commu
This study makes a numeric and visual comparison of two different multibeam echo sounding (MBES) surveys performed at the exact same location, in an effort to establish how reliable and comparable the vertical depth measurements are. The horizontal position uncertainty is not issued in this study. The analysis was performed on data delivered by two survey contractors, The Norwegian Coastal Admini
Abstract Background Axis Communications is a Lund based company which specializes in network cameras. In addition to the cameras, the company has a wide range of accessories that ensure their customers receive complete solutions. While the company has had significant successes by investing heavily in R&D, increased competition from low-cost competitors is now placing higher demands on cost-eff
This master thesis contributed to a project financed by the Swedish Energy Agency and managed by the housing company Eksta AB in collaboration with the consulting Company WSP. The main aim of this master thesis was to perform a theoretical optimization on the usage of own used solar electricity by transferring the surplus PV between buildings in a demonstration area in a DC-microgrid. To achieve th
Increasing demand for metals might lead to extraction of metals from materials, previously, thought of as waste. A letter by the Swedish Environmental Protection Agency and Geological Survey of Sweden from 2017 encouraged new and innovative waste treatments as well as recycling of waste produced in association with mining. The conventional treatment of acid mine wastewater creates large volumes of
