Purpose: To describe which types of assistive devices prescribed and actually used, either due to precautions or due to true functional reasons, after hip fracture-related hemiarthroplasty. Materials and methods: About 394 patients cluster-randomized 2010–2014 at a university hospital. Control group with standard postoperative precautions to reduce dislocations, mandatory assistive devices and kne
Songbirds have evolved diverse strategies to cope with seasonality, including long-, medium-, and short-distance migration. There is some evidence that birds with a longer migration distance deposit fuel faster. However, most studies focus on long-distance migrants. Comparisons between species with different migration distances are necessary to broaden our understanding of fueling capacity in migr
This presentation gives an overview of a peer learning model and academic support intervention named SI-PASS (Supplemental Instruction – Peer Assisted Study Schemes) in Higher Education in Europe. SI-PASS is a method of improving student performance in “difficult”, normally introductory, courses combining “how to learn” with “what to learn”. SI-PASS sessions are scheduled parallel to the regular e
Mental illness in adults such as depression, anxiety or bipolar disorder are nowadays a significant public health problem. Many of those with mental illness are parents of underage children. A parents’ mental illness affects children’s development and wellbeing, but this association is mediated by parental skills and the relation between child and parent. In summary, at a group level there is an i
Ocean Drilling Program (ODP) Site 1051 (Blake Nose, western North Atlantic) is of crucial importance for reconstructing diatom evolution and biosiliceous sedimentation patterns through the early Cenozoic period of extreme greenhouse warmth followed by the progressive global cooling. The magnetostratigraphy in Hole 1051A, however, has been subject to divergent interpretations resulting in multi-mil
Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingen handlar om den aspekt av människans självbild, eller självet, som på engelska kallas possible selves, och som på svenska skulle kunna kallas "möjliga själv" (en etablerad svensk översättning saknas). Detta är framtidsföreställningar eller framtidsbilder där vi ser oss själva i framtida situationer eller tillstånd, och teorin om möjliga själv presenterades fPossible selves are conceptions or images of ourselves in future states or situations. The theory about possible selves used in the present thesis was developed in a social cognitive tradition of research on the self, where the self is seen as a knowledge structure (Markus & Nurius, 1986). Possible selves are parts of this knowledge structure and possible selves are of importance for motivatio
The emittances of the electron beams at the MAX-laboratory accelerator system have been studied. Apart from the build-up of the diagnostic tools for precise determination of the beam spatial profiles, the objectives have been: a) to verify the accelerator design emittances at low currents and to try to determine the emittances also at high currents; b) to investigate possibilities to manipulate th
Most people in the world and about a fifth of all school-aged Americans speak at least two languages. Nevertheless, little is known about second language (L2) processing in development, even though language proficiency is strongly related to success in almost all domains. Whereas behavioral studies of L2 acquisition in children are abundant, neurocognitive studies of L2 processing typically are li
The borderless world is providing new opportunities for conducting business, both within Europe and between continents. Sustainable competition will be harder to attain and competition will become fiercer, day-by-day. The Austrian school of strategy emphasizes change, continuous innovation, and entrepreneurial discovery as sources of supernormal profits. An important assumption is that these super
Vibrations in a built environment can exceed the requirements for sensitive equipment in a building or can cause annoyance to residents. Hence, there is often a need for reducing such vibrations. The vibrations can originate from ambient sources such as motorway traffic, or from internal sources such as people walking inside the building. Disturbing vibrations can be reduced by reduction measures.

Context. Ultra-hot Jupiters present a unique opportunity to understand the physics and chemistry of planets, their atmospheres, and interiors at extreme conditions. WASP-12 b stands out as an archetype of this class of exoplanets, with a close-in orbit around its star that results in intense stellar irradiation and tidal effects. Aims. The goals are to measure the planet's tidal deformation, atmos
Binas surrande är en viktig komponent för känslan av sommar. Men, förutom många hyllmeter av litteratur om några vanliga arter av honungsbi och humlor, vet vi än idag förvånansvärt lite om många av de tjugofem tusen arter vi kallar bin. Vissa humlor överlever Grönlands minusgrader och hårda vindbyar, medan de i Amazonas snarare älskar skogens höga temperatur och fuktighet. Vissa arter bor i stora The buzzing flight of bees is a popular summer hit. Yet, outside of a few familiar species of honeybees and bumblebees, these fantastic little creatures are still mostly unknown. With about twenty-five thousand species, bees are a very diverse group. They can be found in drastically different habitats. For example, some kinds of bumblebees endure the freezing temperatures and windswept tundra of G
Carbon capture using amine-based absorption is an established technology for the separation of gaseous CO2. It is used in the upgrading of gaseous fuels, and it has also been suggested that it could play a crucial role in the mitigation of climate change through post-combustion carbon capture and sequestration (CCS), and by creating carbon sinks through bioenergy CCS. One drawback of the existing
Dying in older persons precedes often by a prolonged period of frailty and multimorbidity. The global increase in the aged population means more death at an older age and highlights the need to integrate palliative care in elderly care. Knowledge-based palliative care is lacking outside the specialist units, for which reason there is insufficient access to palliative care for older persons. Thus t
In this thesis, we address three main security problems related to cryptography andcloud storage. To tackle the challenge posed by a quantum computer, we needencryption that is resistant to quantum computers. This category of cryptographyis called post-quantum cryptography. In the first paper, we solve a challengein one of the lattice-based cryptographic protocols called Nth-degree Truncatedpolyno
Microplastic (MP) pollution is increasingly recognized as a critical issue in coastal environments, where complex interactions between ocean currents, winds, waves, and human activities govern the transport and deposition of synthetic particles. Although previous studies in Asia have documented MPs accumulation linked to riverine discharge, tourism pressures, and monsoonal circulation, limited wor
Eighty basal cell carcinomas (BCCs) in 21 patients, 10 lesions of Bowen's disease in three patients, and four lesions of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma in two patients, were treated with photodynamic laser therapy (PDT), using topical application of the haem precursor delta-amino levulinic acid (ALA). The diagnoses were confirmed histologically prior to treatment. Fifty-five of the BCCs were superficia
Popular Abstract in Swedish Nästa år är det 400 år sedan Galileo Galilei för första gången riktade ett teleskop mot objekt på himlen. Allt sedan dess har teleskopet varit det viktigaste instrumentet för astronomins utveckling och med dess hjälp har vår kunskap om universum revolutionerats. Tack vare utvecklingen av teleskopet under dessa århundraden har allt ljussvagare objekt kunnat studeras, ochThis thesis presents the work on the design of, construction of, and finally observations with, an experimental setup comprising a small telescope equipped with adaptive optics. The facility has been assembled at Lund Observatory, where also observations on the sky have been made. The aim of this project was to gain hands-on knowledge in the development of a real adaptive optics system and eventua
