Background The Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) creatinine equation is routinely used to assess renal function but exhibits varying accuracy depending on patient characteristics and clinical presentation. The overall aim of the present study was to assess if and to what extent glomerular filtration rate (GFR) estimation based on creatinine can be improved.MethodsIn a cro

Protein biomarkers have the potential to improve diagnosis, stratification of patients into treatment cohorts, follow disease progression and treatment response. One distinct group of potential biomarkers comprises proteins which have been linked to cancer, known as cancer associated proteins (CAPs). We determined the normal variation of 86 CAPs in 72 individual plasma samples collected from ten i

An important part of responsible business practices is compliance with the law. This article details what actually happens when the laws of the host country fail to ensure adequate protection. The focus here is on land dispossession and loss of livelihood in relation to a gold mine project in central Ghana. How is it that a well-known international company—Newmont—with its own corporate social res

Popular Abstract in Swedish Min avhandling handlar om flyttning, det vill säga hur levande organismer rör sig mellan olika områden för att utnyttja resurser, undvika födobrist och som en anpassning till klimat- och miljöfaktorer. Vi begränsar det hela till fåglar's flyttning och bland dem ska vi koncentrera os's på rovfåglar. Rovfåglar är beroende av sina bytesdjur, som till exempel kan vara andraMy dissertation is about bird migration and addresses questions about how raptors adapt to the fluctuating environments during the transition seasons between breeding and wintering. The migration is highly affected by local prey abundance, foraging strategies, weather conditions and landscape patterns along the migration routes as well as navigation and orientation mechanisms and cues. Interesting

This Master’s thesis in library and information science deals with the development of Länkskafferiet, a SBIG created in 1994 by NetLab of the University Library of Lund. Länkskafferiet maintains a selection of quality controlled Internet links for the use of Swedish school children. We have had access to archives and files from the start of Länkskafferiet in 1994 to 2005 and have also interviewed

The use of area-based approaches in urban regeneration is widely accepted in the European community. As these projects are based on the context of the focal area, there is no one-size-fits-all solution on how to design and implement those. The Eco-city Augustenborg project is an environmentally-led urban regeneration project initiated in Malmö in 1998. Today, fifteen years after the project was in

Foragers increase their fitness by choosing the most profitable food source to forage on. Food resource is spatially distributed in a landscape context and, most importantly, in a patch scale. Therefore, they have to make daily decisions about where to forage based on their ecological information about the surrounding environment. There is a lack of descriptive studies on the relationship between

Relations to time and space - a study of political art in the People’s Park of Malmö This thesis discusses the historical, political and social relations between an urban park and two types of artworks. The urban park, located in the city of Malmö, is named Folkets Park which is inspired by the Belgian “Maison du people” or in English, People’s Park. Folkets Park have historic ties to the Social D

Credit scoring, the process of evaluating loan applicants with the help of numerical methods, is widely used in the financial sector. When used correctly, it can aid the decision process and lower default rates on loans. New EU regulation has allowed third-party actors to access personal banking information, following the applicant's consent. The increase in available information that financia

This paper investigates the last two months of the Vietnam War, March and April 1975, from the CIA:s perspective. During the last two decades, the CIA have declassified many documents about the Vietnam war, thus making new source material available. The withdrawal of American troops from Afghanistan and the subsequent Taliban conquest, has also sparked a renewed interest in the Vietnam war. Hence,

Kan ekosystemtjänster stärka hållbarhetsperspektivet i den kommunala översiktsplaneringen? Många av samhällets funktioner är direkt beroende av ekosystem i balans. Samtidigt utarmas idag den biologiska mångfalden och ekosystemens funktioner hotas, vilket riskerar att få stora negativa konsekvenser för både människa och samhälle. Vi behöver därför hitta nya sätt att ta hänsyn ekosystemens ekologisThe degradation of ecosystems and the loss of biodiversity occurs at an alarming rate. This results in an imbalance of ecosystem functions, leading to a loss of ecosystem services. Ecosystem services are benefits which humans can derive from ecosystems and their internal processes, thus vital to preserve from a societal perspective. The purpose of this study was to explore the possibilities for

Bakgrund: Varje dag förmedlar aktieanalytiker världen över analyser och rekommendationer. Eftersom analytikerna spenderar sina dagar med att tolka all tillgänglig information på marknaden är det rimligt att anta att dessa personer är de bästa på att värdera bolag. Därmed kan det tänkas vara en bra strategi för den småsparare som inte själv har kunskap, lust eller tid att basera en strategi på deraBackground: Every day, stock analysts convey analyses and recommendations. Since analysts spend their days interpreting all available information on the market, it is reasonable to assume that these people are the best at evaluating corporations. Therefore, for the individual investor who lacks the knowledge; interest or time, basing a strategy on their recommendations might seem like a good appro

The optical response of gold-silver (Au-Ag) alloy nanoparticles is strongly influenced by their localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR), which can be tuned by varying the particle composition. Accurate simulation of LSPR, often performed using Mie theory, critically depends on the choice of dielectric function, yet available datasets for gold, silver, and their alloys vary widely. In this work,
