Denna uppsats undersöker hur studenter vid Lunds universitet använder Facebook som en plattform för bostadskontrakt. Den undersöker hur Facebooks affordances underlättar eller hindrar processen för både studenter och hyresvärdar, och hur de använder dessa möjligheter för att välja boende och hyresgäster. Studien identifierar framgångsrika strategier för att utnyttja Facebooks affordances för att sThis thesis examines how students at Lund university use Facebook as a platform for housing contracts. It explores how the affordances of Facebook facilitate or hinder the process for both students and landlords, and how they use these affordances to select accommodations and tenants. The study identifies successful strategies in leveraging Facebook's affordances to secure favorable housing co

Uppsatsen syftar till att undersöka hur kvinnor framställs och används i reklamsyfte. Studien granskar om reklam har en roll i att förstärka eller skapa könsnormer. En kvalitativ analys utfördes av fyra reklambilder från tidningen Vogue och utgick från semiotikens tillvägagångssätt för att söka efter tecken och djupare mening. Med hjälp av att applicera ett antal olika teorier på den kvalitativa a

“Den gröna revolutionen; Hur Wicked blir en spegling av samtiden", ett filmpoetiskt perspektiv utifrån makt och utanförskap. Skriven av Nova Bergman, Moa Fors och Moa Nittmar, enheten för Medie- och kommunikationsvetenskap, vid institutionen för kommunikation och medier vid Lunds universitet. Reboot-trenden har blivit allt vanligare i dagens samtid. Därför undersöker denna uppsats hur större

Anesthesiology is the medical specialty dedicated to the relief of pain and care of the surgical patient before, during and after surgery. Most of the work in anesthesiology is routine patient care, but because patients are sick and surgical procedures may develop in unexpected ways, anesthesiology by its nature often involves medical crises. In recent years, two concepts have gained increasing i

Importance: Traditional adoption studies examine disorder-to-disorder parent-offspring transmission. The role of parental genetic risk in offspring disorder transmission can capture indirect genetic effects from parental genotype to parental phenotype to offspring risk. Objective: To assess the relative importance of genetic and rearing effects from paternal family genetic risk scores (FGRSs) in 3

Background Pulmonary nodules (PNs) are clinically challenging because differentiation between benign and malignant PNs is not possible at CT detection; recurring CT examinations and invasive procedures are often required in PN follow-up. Purpose To investigate PN prevalence in a middle-aged population and the risk factors associated with these nodules. Materials and Methods In this secondary analy

Följande studie undersöker hur kulturella symboler och visuella element framträder i Coca-Colas AI-genererade julreklam för 2025, samt hur användbar den kvalitativa metoden semiotisk analys är för att tolka AI-genererat visuellt material. Utgångspunkten i studien är att reklam skapar och reproducerar kulturell mening, samtidigt som AI har förändrat hur sådant innehåll produceras. Resultaten i stud

Denna studie undersöker hur föräldrarörelsen Ki-DS Bättre Digital Barndom skapar och mobiliserar medborgarengagemang i digitala miljöer. Utifrån Dahlgrens teori om civic culture och Papacharissis begrepp affektiva offentligheter undersöks hur oro om barns digitala vardag leder till en gemensam handling. Studien baserar sig på en kvalitativ innehållsanalys och en fallstudie av Ki-DS kommunikation p

There is an urgent need for accurate and validated methods to measure plasma phosphorylated tau (p-Tau) biomarkers in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). In this study, we compared the performance of new commercially available plasma p-Tau217 assay developed by ALZpath to other established p-Tau assays in an autopsy-confirmed sample. We included 72 participants from the Arizona Study of Aging and Neurodegen

Background: Disorders affecting the nervous system are diverse and include neurodevelopmental disorders, late-life neurodegeneration, and newly emergent conditions, such as cognitive impairment following COVID-19. Previous publications from the Global Burden of Disease, Injuries, and Risk Factor Study estimated the burden of 15 neurological conditions in 2015 and 2016, but these analyses did not i

Evidence from neuropathological cohorts indicates that a CSF α-synuclein (α-syn) seed amplification assay (SAA) might provide quantitative kinetic parameters correlating with α-syn pathology burden in patients with Lewy body disease (LBD). Studies are needed to assess their longitudinal trend during the presymptomatic and clinical disease phases and their correlation with measures of disease progr

Background: In Alzheimer’s disease (AD), the associations between tau pathology and brain atrophy and cognitive decline are well established, but imperfect. We investigate whether cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biomarkers of biological processes (vascular, synaptic, and axonal integrity, neuroinflammation, neurotrophic factors) explain the disconnection between tau pathology and brain atrophy (brain re

Background: Up-to-date estimates of stroke burden and attributable risks and their trends at global, regional, and national levels are essential for evidence-based health care, prevention, and resource allocation planning. We aimed to provide such estimates for the period 1990–2021. Methods: We estimated incidence, prevalence, death, and disability-adjusted life-year (DALY) counts and age-standard

Mineralogical and geochemical studies of the non-marine Permian–Triassic (P–Tr) boundary across two stratigraphically wellconstrained sections (Commando Drift Dam and Wapadsberg, Eastern Cape Province) in the southern Karoo Basin, South Africa, have been undertaken to provide further input on the cause of this mass extinction event, and so has a sedimentological and geochemical evaluation of a thi

Purpose: To determine progression factors at the end of the Early Manifest Glaucoma Trial (EMGT) based on all EMGT patients and evaluate separately patients with higher and lower baseline intraocular pressure (IOP; median split). Design: Cohort of clinical trial participants. Participants: Patients with early open-angle glaucoma randomized to argon laser trabeculoplasty plus betaxolol (n = 129) or

The ice cover presence on the surface of a lake insulates the water body from the atmosphere. This prevents or reduces the influence of processes which depend on the exchange between the atmosphere and the water surface. This implies significant reduction or elimination of some processes taking place at the open water surface; for instance, a substantial reduction in solar energy penetrating to th

Background/Purpose: The aim of this study was to estimate the incidence rate and prevalence of coronary artery diseases (CAD) in patients with temporal artery positive giant cell arteritis (TAB+GCA) from a defined population in southern Sweden, and to describe characteristics of CAD in this sample.Methods: The study cohort consisted of 1202 patients (71.9% women) diagnosed with TAB+GCA between 199

This thesis is based on the results concerning the epitaxial growth and characterization of silicon (Si) and germanium (Ge) nanostructures. The growth technique was the Ultra High Vacuum Chemical Vapor Deposition (UHV-CVD) that works in relatively low temperatures and low growth pressures. The UHV-CVD chamber was also used for the reduction experiments. The work presented here involves three diff
