Lymphedema and Health-Related Quality of Life

Lymfödem är en svullnad som kan uppkomma i olika delar av kroppen. Svullnaden uppstår på grund av att lymfvätska inte hinner dräneras bort i tillräcklig takt, utan blir kvar i vävnaden. Orsaken kan vara en medfödd genetisk svaghet i lymfsystemet alternativt en skada på lymfsystemet orsakat av operation, infektion, inflammation eller annan kroppskada.

Lymphedema is defined as swelling in one or more parts of the body that is due to impaired lymph drainage and transport. The impairments in the lymph system can be congenital or secondary to, e.g., cancer t

Performance of a multifunctional PV/T hybrid solar window

A building-integrated multifunctional PV/T solar window has been developed and evaluated. It is constructed of PV cells laminated on solar absorbers placed in a window behind the glazing. To reduce the cost of the solar electricity, tiltable reflectors have been introduced in the construction to focus radiation onto the solar cells. The reflectors render the possibility of controlling the amount o

Building Energy Efficiency - Policy, learning and technology change

Popular Abstract in English Over thirty years of experience shows that energy efficiency is the easiest, fastest, and cheapest strategy to reduce today’s rampant energy use. To enhance energy efficiency, governmental intervention and business strategies are needed. The question of which governmental policies are the most effective to support energy efficiency remains unanswered. Policy learning anExperience shows that energy efficiency improvements are the most cost-effective path to meeting global energy challenges. To promote energy efficiency, various policy instruments have been in place since the 1970s. Nevertheless, energy efficiency improvements still lag behind their potential in the building sector, which indicates that there is a lack of knowledge about the performance of policie
