OBJECTIVE: High fluctuations in injury-risk during the playing season in soccer have been reported. As seasons are structured in periods with homogenous loads and intensities, we investigated injury-risk over season periods, contrarily to previous studies adopting a month-based approach.DESIGN: Cohort study; Level of evidence, 2.METHODS: Incidence-rate ratios (IRRs) for match and training injuries

BACKGROUND: While physical activity has been shown to affect psychological as well as physiological stress responses, less research has explored the effects of acute stress on athletic performance. The current study hence aimed to investigate the effect of an Acute Psychological Stress (APS) provocation on performance and plasma lactate concentration during a following 200m swim race among male el

A measurement of the rapidity and transverse momentum dependence of dijet azimuthal decorrelations is presented, using the quantity RΔφ. The quantity RΔφ specifies the fraction of the inclusive dijet events in which the azimuthal opening angle of the two jets with the highest transverse momenta is less than a given value of the parameter Δφmax. The quantity RΔφ is measured in proton-proton collisi

BackgroundWorldwide, an estimated 5 billion people lack access to safe, affordable surgical care when needed. This leads to millions of avertable deaths and unnecessary morbidity each year. To change this situation, urgent action is needed at many levels, but indicators and data have been lacking to guide improvement.AimsThe aim of this thesis was to describe and evaluate measurement of surgical p

På en väg med utformningen bygdeväg samsas motorfordon från båda riktningarna om en smalare körbana på ca 3-3.5m och på ömse sidor finns en bredare vägren. Syftet är att öka gåendes och cyklandes tillgänglighet genom att ge dem ett ”eget” utrymme dvs på vägrenen. LTH:s del i projektet och syftet med denna rapport är att undersöka trafiksäkerhetseffekterna av utformningstypen bygdeväg. Två teststrä

The aim of this study was to investigate long-term outcome following first line therapy in consecutive chronic lymphocytic leukemia patients in a well defined geographic area (Sweden). All patients diagnosed with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (2007-2013) (n=3672) were identified from national registries, screening of patient files identified all (100%) first line treated (n=1053) and for those, dep

I september 2014 infördes en ny korsningstyp, cykelöverfart, där fordonstrafik som korsar cykelöverfarten har väjningsplikt mot cyklande och mopedförare som är på eller just på väg ut på cykelöverfarten. Syftet med projektet är att utvärdera regleringsformens effekt på cyklisters trafiksäkerhet. På tre platser i Malmö studerades hastigheter, allvarliga konflikter, väjningsbeteende samt interaktion

Town foundations have been at the core of urban planning since the onset of civilization. This paper describes the long-run impact of an urbanization place-based policy that was considered a failure by contemporary policymakers. We test the impact of founded towns using a series of town foundations that took place between 1570 and 1810, when the Swedish Crown conferred monopoly market rights to tr

This article tries to address the situation in Yemen during one year after the murder of Yemeni former president Ali Abduallah Saleh, What happened and what are the changes?

Experiments were performed to identify mechanisms underlying non-leakage and non-H+/HCO3--linked transmembrane Cl- transports in the slowly adapting stretch receptor neurone of the European lobster, using intracellular microelectrode and pharmacological techniques. In methodological tests, it was established that direct estimates of intracellular Cl- with ion-sensitive microelectrodes are statisti

En sammanfattning av hemlöshetsforskningen och läget för hemlösa barn

I slutet av 1960-talet, under rekordåren i svensk ekonomi, kom den banbrytande boken Den ofärdiga välfärden ut. Boken kom att bli en temperaturmätare på dåtidens välfärd och dess brister. I denna antologi beskriver ett antal välfärdsforskare från olika discipliner vad som hänt med utvecklingen på ett antal välfärdsområden under det gångna halvseklet. Vilka lucker finns i välfärden i dag.

Bakgrund och introduktion till forskningsantologin Den kantstötta välfärden.

Vad har hänt med flyktingmigrationen och den sociala rörligheten i Europa och Sverige under det senaste halvseklet?
