Popular Abstract in Swedish Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning Hyaluronan (hyaluronsyra) är en högmolekylär polysackarid som förekommer i all biologisk vävnad i olika koncentrationer, med särskilt höga nivåer i bindväv. Den kan bildas av de flesta celltyper. På molekylär nivå föreligger den i form av ett nystan, har förmågan att binda stora mängder vatten, och har en uttalad pseudoplasticitet. HyaHyaluronan has been found in the eye in varying amounts and at different sites. It is involved in physiological and pathological processes, though many aspects of its bio-logi-cal functions are still unclear. We have studied the role of iris tissue in hyal-uro-nan production in the anterior segment of the eye, and its changes after trauma. After peripheral iridectomy or argon laser treatment, the

Abstract in Danish Denne afhandling handler om livskvalitet hos ældre mennesker med kræft. Risikoen for at få kræft stiger med alderen, og til trods for at de fleste mennesker, der får kræft er ældre, har forskning i hvordan ældre lever med en kræftsygdom været yderst begrænset. Viden om hvordan ældre mennesker oplever det at få en kræftdiagnose og hvordan de lever med sygdommen er en forudsætningOver the coming decades, the numbers of elderly will increase, and through improved lifestyles and better treatment longevity has increased, and with it, the risk of contracting cancer. How elderly people live with cancer has until now attracted limited research. The overall aim of this thesis was to investigate the QoL of elderly persons from the time of a cancer diagnosis through the following s

Objectives: To estimate intra- and inter-observer reproducibility and reliability of assessment of the color content in adnexal masses at color/power Doppler ultrasound examination for observers with different levels of experience, and to determine if they change after a consensus meeting. Methods: Digital clips with color/power Doppler information of 103 adnexal masses were evaluated independentl

Circulatory failure is considered one of the entities of the post cardiac arrest syndrome contributing to poor outcome. It is reported at 15-70% of all patients successfully resuscitated from out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). The pathophysiologic mechanism is attributed to limitation of cell metabolism due to inadequate supply of oxygen, caused by pump or conduction failure within the cardiov

Geofysiska mätmetoder kan tids- och kostnadseffektivt skapa tvådimensionella (2D) och tredimensionella (3D) modeller som avspeglar geologin och som kan användas som ett verktyg för kartläggning av grundvattentillgångar. I denna studie har fyra profiler belägna i den s.k. Vombsänkan i sydöstra Skåne undersökts med galvanisk resistivitetsmätning (ERT) och Transient Elektronmagnetisk Sondering (TEM)Geophysical methods can create 2D- and 3D-models that reflects the geology. These models can be used as a tool for mapping groundwater resources. Four profiles, located in Vombsänkan in southeastern Skåne, have been investigated with Electrical Resistivity Tomography (ERT) and ground-based Transient Electromagnetic Soundings (TEM) as a study of the two methods. The resistivity profiles from the g

Popular science summary Are drugs only drugs for human being? An experiment to see if some of the anthropogenic pharmaceuticals are toxic contaminants for the aquatic environment. All kinds of pharmaceuticals have been using widely and the amount has been increased significantly during the last few decades. Concerns about the occurrence of pharmaceuticals releasing into different matrixes of th

Solen och alla stjärnor som vi ser på natthimlen tillhör vår Galax - Vintergatan. Vintergatan är en spiralgalax med en utbuktning i dess centrum - bulben. För att förstå hur Vintergatan blev till måste man ha en bra uppfattning om bulbens ursprung. Under många år trodde vi att vi visste hur bulben och hela Galaxen hade formats, men ny teknologi, förbättrade teleskop och instrument samt simuleringaContext. The formation and evolution of the Galactic bulge and the Milky Way is still a debated subject. Observations of, e.g., the X-shaped bulge, cylindrical stellar motions and young stars in the bulge have suggested that the bulge formed through secular evolution of the disk and not through gas dissipation and/or mergers, as thought previously.\\ Data. We use high-resolution optical spectra of

Spx or why bacteria don’t suffer from burnout Bacteria also suffer from stress. In general, any fluctuation in the environment of bacteria can cause stress on them. For instance, too hot or too cold temperature, or changes in the pH. In order to survive, they need mechanisms to cope with it. Most of these mechanisms involve proteins, which can be seen as tools that respond to stress. In the bac

The recent push for decarbonization in the maritime sector presents an opportunity for ports to strengthen their position as energy hubs. This work studies the existing energy flows in the Port of Trelleborg, one of Europe's biggest roll-on, roll-off ports, and proposes some energy-related development strategies. The current energy flows directly concerning the port are for the most part elect

Introduction: Drawing upon the framework of life course epidemiology, this study aligns with research on the mental health consequences of significant social transitions during early adulthood. The focus is on the variation in initial labour market attachment and the development of depressiveness, assuming that a firm attachment is associated with decreasing depressiveness. Methods: The baseline i

This study develops a deep learning method for fast auditory attention decoding (AAD) using electroencephalography (EEG) from listeners with hearing impairment. It addresses three classification tasks: differentiating noise from speech-in-noise, classifying the direction of attended speech (left vs. right) and identifying the activation status of hearing aid noise reduction (NR) algorithms (OFF vs

Sweden’s substantial building stock from the million programs is in need of renovations. These residential buildings were built without major attention to energy demand or architectural aesthetics. Until now, property owners have hesitated to carry out energy renovations due to the investment cost. The aim of this master thesis was to propose an energy-efficient renovation procedure whilst takin

BACKGROUND: Among asymptomatic patients with severe carotid artery stenosis but no recent stroke or transient cerebral ischaemia, either carotid artery stenting (CAS) or carotid endarterectomy (CEA) can restore patency and reduce long-term stroke risks. However, from recent national registry data, each option causes about 1% procedural risk of disabling stroke or death. Comparison of their long-te

Popular Abstract in SwedishMånga skador och olägenheter av fukt kan uppkomma under en byggnads livslängd. De kan t.ex. orsaka hälsoproblem eller dålig ekonomi. För att minska fuktproblem kan en fuktdimensionering göras. I en fuktdimensionering behövs olika fuktberäkningar för att se hur fukttillståndet förväntas bli i eller på en yta av en konstruktion. Beräknade fukttillstånd används för att kontDetermination of the design conditions for moisture resistance requires in a Moisture Design number of different moisture calculations to be made in order to determine the moisture status within, or on the surface of, a structure.
