LIFE SATISFACTION AND FEELING HINDERED BY HEALTH PROBLEMS AT 60 YEARS AND ABOVE

Popular Abstract in Swedish Idag finns det flera studier där livstillfredsställelse bland äldre har undersökts. Studierna är dels genomförda i varierande kontext och dels innehåller de varierande faktorer som hälsa, funktionell förmåga, självkänsla, sociala kontakter och finansiell situation. Därmed är det inte självklart att det finns gemensamma eller specifika faktorer, vilka är förknippade med The aim of this thesis was to investigate how older people's capacity to perform activities of daily living (ADL), health, social and financial resources, and self-esteem can be related to their life satisfaction. The aim was also to investigate how people feel hindered by health problems in relation to their ADL capacity, health problems, social and financial resources, self-esteem, sense of cohe

Search for new physics in e +/- q contact interactions at HERA

Deep-inelastic e(+/-) p scattering at high squared momentum transfer Q(2) up to 30 000 GeV2 is used to search for eq contact interactions associated to scales far beyond the HERA centre of mass energy. The neutral current cross section measurements dsigma / dQ(2), corresponding to integrated luminosities of 16.4 pb(-1) of e(-) p data and 100.8 pb(-1) of e(+) p data, are well described by the Stand

A 3-dimensional absorbed dose calculation method based on quantitative SPECT for radionuclide therapy: evaluation for (131)I using monte carlo simulation.

A general method is presented for patient-specific 3-dimensional absorbed dose calculations based on quantitative SPECT activity measurements. METHODS: The computational scheme includes a method for registration of the CT image to the SPECT image and position-dependent compensation for attenuation, scatter, and collimator detector response performed as part of an iterative reconstruction method. A

The Late Holocene history of beech Fagus sylvatica and Norway spruce Picea abies at stand-scale in southern Sweden

Popular Abstract in Swedish Denna avhandling är resultatet av min doktorandutbildning vid Kvartärgeologiska avdelningen, Geologiska institutionen, Lunds universitet. Avhandlingen baseras på pollenanlytiska undersökningar av ett antal lokaler i södra Sverige. I denna syntes sammanfattas resultaten av undersökningarna. Introduktion och bakgrund Avsikten med avhandlingen har varit att studera etablHigh resolution pollen analysis was carried out on five peat profiles from small forest hollows at four sites in southern Sweden. The general aim was to investigate the establishment of Fagus sylvatica and Picea abies at stand-scale. The sites used for this study were all located within the area where the present distribution limits of Fagus and Picea overlap each other. The results from the diffe

Changes in ultraviolet-radiation reaching the earths surface

The quality and quantity of UV measurements have increased greatly in the last few years. Variations among measurements from different instruments are diminishing toward the 5% level. Long-term trend detection is still a problem, with little historical data available for baseline estimations. Enhanced UV levels are clearly associated with the Antarctic springtime ozone reductions. Measurements sho

Neuropathological postmortem evaluation of BNCT for GBM

Background - Thirty patients with glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) were treated by boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) at the Studsvik facility in Sweden, in a clinical trial exploring a procedure in which 900 mg p-boronophenylalanine (BPA) per kilo body weight was infused in 6 h. Objective - The present study was designed to assess tumor efficacy and radiation damage to the brain for the seven pati

Lung transplantation at the University of Lund 1990-1995. Analysis of the first 39 consecutive patients

Between 1990 and 1995 39 patients were lung transplanted at the University Hospital in Lund. This is a retrospective review of survival and lung function in these patients. There were 17 single-lung transplants (SLT), 21 double-lung transplants (DLT) and 1 heart-lung transplant (HLT). Seven patients died during the period, giving an overall survival of 82%. One-year survival according to Kaplan-Me

Visual influence on postural control, with and without visual motion feedback.

Body sway was investigated in 20 healthy subjects to determine whether visual input must contain motion feedback information from the surroundings in order to influence postural control. Posturography was used to record body sway under the following visual conditions: eyes open with or without a restricted visual field; eyes open in ganzfield white light; eyes open in darkness with a head-fixed vi

Skadestånd som sanktion mot karteller

Abstract in Undetermined Ett hitintills outnyttjat sanktionsinstrument i den svenska konkurrenslagen är skadeståndet – en sanktion som i kartellbekämpningens ursprungsland USA intar en dominerande roll. I detta arbete har vi för avsikt att studera skadeståndets utformning och funktion i svensk och europeisk konkurrensrätt med utgångspunkt från hur det kan bidra till en effektivare kartellbekämpnin

Nitrogen-doped carbon nanotubes under electron irradiation simulated with a tight-binding model

Experiments show that nitrogen-doped carbon nanotubes subjected to the electron beam in a transmission electron microscope can easily lose dopant atoms and that overall they are less stable under electron irradiation than the pristine tubes. To understand the lower stability of nitrogen-doped nanotubes we use a density-functional-theory-based tight-binding model and simulate impacts of energetic e

Zarah Leander: Den queera divan

This article discusses the actress and singer Zarah Leander (1907-1981), one of the most celebrated female stars in German Nazi Cinema 1936-43. She is a contradictory figure, and her star persona has always been a negotiation of antagonistic formulations, thus pointing to modes of audience identification and specatorship issues, most strikingly articulated through her immense popularity in the pos
