The aim of the study was to explore nursing students' experiences of aspects important for their learning process and their ability to handle the complexity of the nursing degree program. The study was longitudinal and qualitative based on interviews with nursing students, six women and two men aged 20-36, during their three years of education. In all, seven patterns were found embracing aspects o
The ability of rabbit deep flexor tendons to restore the gliding surface and to heal, without the normal contribution of the superficial epitenon layer of the tendons, was studied by light and scanning electron microscopy. The epitenon layer was carefully removed, from defined segments of the tendons. The remaining central tendon tissue was divided, sutured and placed in diffusion chambers subcuta
Denna uppsats undersöker hur asylsökande framställs i propositionen 1993/94:94 Mottagande av asylsökande m.m. och proposition 2025/26:229 En ny mottagandelag. Syftet är att undersöka hur asylsökande skildras i den politiska diskursen och hur detta förändrats över tid. Den tidigare forskningen kartlägger förändringar i framställningen av asylsökare och är kronologiskt utformad. Studien utgår från t
Deep learning has advanced flood forecasting through its strong nonlinear modeling capabilities. However, accuracy declines and robustness remain insufficient at longer forecast lead times. Therefore, an evolutionary deep learning model for flood forecasting was developed by integrating time-varying filter-based empirical mode decomposition (TVFEMD), sample entropy-based signal reconstruction (SE)
BACKGROUND: The Leiden group and the Assessment of Spondyloarthritis International Society (ASAS)-MRI study group have proposed definitions for structural (SL) and active (AL) lesions typical for axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) on MRI of the sacroiliac joints (MRI-SIJ).OBJECTIVES: To analyse the predictive validity of proposed SL and AL MRI-SIJ definitions in early axSpA and compare proposed AL wi
Consumers are increasingly becoming aware of the abusive exploitation of workers in some of the factories in the development countries that are contracted to produce exports to the European market. Thus, some of the consumers try to promote the enforcement of ethical business practices globally by using their buying behaviour. In effect, the ethical consumers prefer to buy ethically sound goods to
Experimental nuclear structure data coming from superheavy nuclei synthesis experiments often consists of correlated alpha decay chains. In the absence of neutron detectors - which would fully characterize the exit channel after the fusion-evaporation reaction - the sequence of decay energies and half-lives are the 'fingerprint' of the exit channel itself. Experimental data in this region
A grazing-incidence Rowland spectrometer with a collimating element for resonant inelastic soft X-ray scattering at the Veritas beamline at MAX IV, Lund, Sweden, is presented. The instrument is designed to operate in the 250–950 eV range, providing >30000 resolving power in first order. The inherent temporal resolution of the delay-line detector enables time-resolved experiments on the 270 ps time
Urban water systems are facing growing challenges, including climate change and aging assets. Digital transformation presents opportunities to address these issues. However, water utilities often encounter barriers such as fragmented initiatives, organizational inertia, and lack of systems interoperability, limiting the scalability and impact of digitalization efforts. This paper presents a strate
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) affects around 1.5% of newborns in Sweden with few late detected cases (0.12 per 10,000). The most common treatment for DDH in Sweden is with the von Rosen splint, with radiographs at 3 and 12 months of age. Little is known about the remodeling of acetabular dysplasia following treatment initiated in the neonatal period. We aimed to
Islet cell antibodies (ICA) are a specific marker for Type 1 (insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus. ICA are found in the serum of over 80% of newly diagnosed patients and the levels of ICA are directly of prognostic value. Standardisation of ICA and the uniform reporting of ICA levels in international units is critical to preclinical/clinical research and the development of assays for ICA as diagn
Biofouling is a crucial factor in membrane bioreactor (MBR) applications, particularly for high organic loading operations. This paper reports a study on biofouling in an MBR to establish a relationship between critical flux, J(c), mixed liquor suspended solids (MLSS) (ranging from 5 to 20 g L-1) and volumetric loading rate (6.3 kg COD m(-3) h(-1)) of palm oil mill effluent (POME). A lab-scale 100
Popular Abstract in Swedish Torgny Segerstedt, den kände chefredaktören för Göteborgs Handels- och Sjöfartstidning, hade utkämpat strider före nazismens tid. Som ung kallades han till docent till Lund på en underkänd avhandling. Disputationen hade ägt rum i maj 1903 vid den teologiska fakulteten i Uppsala. Efter underkännandet beslöt alltså den teologiska fakulteten i Lund att kalla Segerstedt tilOn 1st September 1903, the Faculty of Theology at the University of Lund took the decision to appoint Torgny Segerstedt as a senior lecturer in spite of his failed doctoral dissertation. The public defence of his thesis had taken place on 28th May in the same year before the Faculty of Theology at Uppsala. It was thus after his failure that the Faculty at Lund nevertheless decided to invite him to
The long-lived, light-induced radical Y-D(.) of the Tyr161 residue in the D2 protein of Photosystem 11 (PSII) is known to magnetically interact with the CaMn4 cluster, situated similar to 30 angstrom away. In this study we report a transient step-change increase in YD EPR intensity upon the application of a single laser flash to S, state-synchronised PSII-enriched membranes from spinach. This tran
Protein C inhibitor (PCI) and antithrombin (AT) are serine protease inhibitors (serpins) that are involved in the regulation of coagulation. Like other inhibitory serpins, PCI and AT adopt different structural conformations that are related to their functions. The cleaved, inactive form is a result of cleavage by a protease, and the latent form, which is also inactive, can arise due to a mutation
