Outcomes Following Exenteration for Gynecological Neoplasms

The primary treatment of gynecological malignancies has considerably evolved over the last century, with a move to less aggressive procedures when appropriate. However, gynecological malignancies comprise a heterogeneous group, with varying treatment options. The choice of reconstructive method for urinary and fecal diversion is crucial, as most patients have been irradiated with high doses or had

A BIM-based approach to design a lifecycle 3D property formation process : A Swedish case study

3D property formation has become an important solution to provide a more comprehensive and accurate representation of the property's physical characteristics than traditional 2D property formation. Despite the numerous benefits of the 3D property formation, there is a need for more detailed descriptions of 3D cadastral data delivery between the involved actors to ensure efficient and effective col

Investigation of flux dependence on viscosity in ultrafiltration

Jordbruksgrödor används huvudsakligen som livsmedel, men som en konsekvens av en strävan efter ett mer fossilfritt samhälle sker ett ständigt sökande efter andra användningsområden, i synnerhet för biprodukter inom livsmedelssektorn. En sådan biprodukt från sockerindustrin är melass. Melass består mestadels av socker men också av bl.a. andra organiska föreningar och salter, och har traditionellt aThis project aims to compare the effect of viscosity on flux for high viscosity liquids. The performance of two different viscous solutions was studied in a plate-and-frame membrane module. The solutions used were based on molasses, which is a liquid containing mainly low-molar mass components and konjac glucomannan (KGM) which is a substance with high molar mass. The change of the mass transport

Synthesis and characterization of mononuclear Fe(II) complexes based on two new pentadentate N5-donor ligands

Levande organismer är mycket avancerade biokemiska system, där ett otal kemiska reaktioner sker hela tiden. I dessa reaktioner omvandlas molekyler (substrat), till en annan molekyl (produkt) under milda betingelser; med detta menas till exempel neutralt pH, atmosfärstryck och kroppstemperatur. Detta är möjligt på grund av biologiska katalysatorer, kallade enzymer, då dessa reaktioner utförs i det Metalloenzymes have the ability to enhance oxidation reactions within biological systems, which have spurred efforts to synthesize biomimetic FeII complexes. That being said, two N4Py-derivative ligands N-((6-(4-chlorophenyl)pyridine-2-yl)methyl)-1,1-di(pyridine-2-yl)-N-(pyridine-2-ylmethyl)methanamine (L1) and N,N-bis((6-(4-chlorophenyl)pyridin-2-yl)methyl)-1,1-di(pyridin-2-yl)methanamine (L2) we

Qdenga® - A promising dengue fever vaccine; can it be recommended to non-immune travelers?

Qdenga® has been approved by the European Medicines Agency (EMA) for individuals > 4 years of age and for use according to national recommendations. The vaccine shows high efficacy against virologically confirmed dengue and severe dengue in clinical studies on 4–16-year old's living in endemic areas. For individuals 16–60 years old only serological data exists and there is no data for individuals

Banking crisis in Sweden and Denmark and governmental interventions

Crisis in the financial sector have come to be a natural part of the economic cycles, as well as the compulsory regulatory measures that follow. These processes have been documented since the beginning of financial revolutions where the states and financial institutions are intertwined in an eternal dance ever since. Both external chocks and internal innovations can spark booms or busts. But how m

Den vardagliga demokratin - En kvalitativ stuide av medborgardialog i Lunds kommun

The aim of this study is to gain a greater understanding of citizen participation in Lund’s municipality. Lund municipality have based their model of participation on Sveriges kommuner och regioner’s (SKR) model of citizen participation which is derived from Arnstein’s model of citizen participation (also known as Arnstein’s ladder of citizen participation). To analyze the implementation of the ci

Elements of Postcolonialism in Sportswashing: A thematic discourse analysis of FIFA in the context of the World Cup in Qatar of 2022

The study aims to demonstrate to what extent speeches, Instagram posts and LinkedIn posts of Gianni Infantino, as the main representative of FIFA, have been marked by elements of Postcolonialism and sportswashing to influence the acceptance of the FIFA World Cup of 2022 in Qatar. The result of this study indicates that FIFA’s rhetoric is marked by Postcolonial elements. Also, the study suggests th

Olena Zelenska, moder till en hel nation

Moder Svea, Marianne och nu Olena Zelenska? Kvinnliga nationalsymboler har varit återkommande i historien - dels som gestalter som symboliskt ska försvaras av nationens män, dels som mödrar vars uppgift är att ta hand om kollektivet och familjen. Studien undersöker hur två stora populärkulturella medieforum, Vogue och Time Magazine, har porträtterat första damen Olena Zelenska i samband med kriget

Exposure to hand-held vibrating tools and biomarkers of nerve injury in plasma : A population-based, observational study

Objectives To analyse potential biomarkers for vibration-induced nerve damage in a population-based, observational study. Design Prospective cohort study. Setting Malmö Diet Cancer Study (MDCS), Malmö, Sweden. Participants In a subcohort of 3898 individuals (recruited 1991-1996) from MDCS (baseline examination in 28 449 individuals; collection of fasting blood samples in a cardiovascular subcohort

New insights into the disulfide stress response by the Bacillus subtilis Spx system at a single-cell level

Spx is a global transcriptional regulator that orchestrates the Bacillus subtilis response to disulfide stress. The YjbH (SpxH) protein adapts Spx for ClpXP-mediated degradation, playing a critical role in the regulation of the cellular Spx levels. Upon stress, YjbH forms aggregates by a yet unknown mechanism, resulting in increased Spx levels due to reduced proteolysis. Here, we studied how indiv

Growing Inwards : Densification and Ecosystem Services in Comprehensive Plans from Three Municipalities in Southern Sweden

This article analyses how urban densification, primarily in relation to ecosystem services, is addressed in comprehensive plans from three cities in southernmost Sweden: Malmö, Lund and Helsingborg. The aim was to investigate and problematise how the comprehensive plans articulate and negotiate how to build dense cities while preserving and enhancing ecosystem services. A qualitative content analy

Who Are We Building for? Tracing Universal Design in Urban Development

Despite laws, policies, and political visions to create cities and societies for all, barriers still exclude people from using buildings and public places. The commitments made in global agreements such as the Convention on Rights for Persons with Disabilities (CRPD) and the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development require significant changes in urban planning to meet the variety of needs and condi

Flexible Density-based Multipath Component Clustering Utilizing Ground Truth Pose

Accurate statistical characterization of electromagnetic propagation is necessary for the design and deployment of radio systems. State-of-the-art channel models such as the Enhanced COST 2100 Channel Model utilize the concept of clusters of multipath components, and characterize channels by their inter- and intra-cluster statistics. Automatic clustering algorithms have been proposed in literature

Statin Treatment Intensity, Discontinuation, and Long-Term Outcome in Patients with Acute Myocardial Infarction and Impaired Kidney Function

Statin dosage in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and concomitant kidney dysfunction is a clinical dilemma. We studied discontinuation during the first year after an AMI and long-term outcome in patients receiving high versus low-moderate intensity statin treatment, in relation to kidney function. For the intention-to-treat analysis (ITT-A), we included all patients admitted to Swed
