Name 1 MPP Baseline questionnaire, anthropometry, laboratory data 2017-04-28 Contents: The aim of the Malmö Preventive Project was to find high-risk individuals for preventive intervention on cardiovascular risk factors, alcohol abuse, impaired glucose tolerance, and breast cancer. The risk factor screening included a physical examination, a panel of laboratory tests, a glucose intolerance test, a
Lund University participates in education and research collaborations with partners from all over the world. Geopolitical changes affect our organisation, and when international collaborations are to be developed or deepened, global responsible engagement becomes more significant. Global responsible engagement entails that through international collaborations the University promotes academic freed

Tema Digiwork Work and Organization in the Digital Age Vårt tema har som mål att undersöka hur den tekniska revolutionen förvandlat sättet vi arbetar på, både som individer och på en organisatorisk nivå, samt utmaningarna detta innebär nationellt och globalt. Internet och kommunikationsteknologi (IKT) har blivit en del av våra liv dels genom allestädes närvaro av smartphones och plattor men även i

Substituting Zn for Cu is known to rapidly quench superconductivity in the doped perovskites but the mechanism behind it is still not clearly understood. Single phase YBa2(Cu1-xZnx)(3)O7-delta (x=0.0 to 0.06) samples were synthesized and characterized using XRD, wet titration, resistivity, and ac susceptibility. Angle-integrated Valence Band Photo emission and Zn K-edge XAFS results clearly show t
The complement system, a part of the innate immune system with several links to the adaptive immune system, plays an important role in the pathogenesis of many diseases. The purpose of this thesis was to document and clarify some of these mechanisms. The thesis is based on four papers (I-IV). (I and II) Autoantibodies to the C3 cleaving enzyme complex of the alternative pathway, C3 nephritic facto
Thesis Purpose: This study examines how parasocial relationships between music artists and fans foster a plethora of different consumer attitudinal outcomes, with the purpose to provide clarity through the shaping of distinct consumer archetypes, while offering in this way practical insights for marketers and industry professionals. The context of K-pop is used to delve deeper into the understandi
This thesis investigates the economic consequences of informal sanctions imposed by China on Norwegian salmon exports following the 2010 Nobel Peace Prize awarded to Chinese dissident Liu Xiaobo. Although no formal trade restrictions were announced, Norwegian salmon, a main export item, faced opaque import barriers that significantly disrupted trade flows. Using disaggregated product-level export
Childhood cancer aetiology is poorly understood and is considered to originate in utero and early postnatal life. In this study, we investigated perinatal characteristics as potential risk factors by performing a population-based case-control study, including 1340 cancer cases diagnosed < 19y and born between 1989–2021 in southern Sweden, and 13400 controls matched by sex, year, and municipality o
Title: Direct Material Safety Stock Standard Authors: Oscar Gustavsson, Oskar Strömberg Supervisors: Gustaf Lilja, IKEA Industry Eva Berg, Division of Industrial management and logistics, Lund University Contribution: This thesis has been a complete elaboration between the two authors. Each author has been involved in every part of the process. Background: In a time when everything is available at
My research seeks to present Public Private Partnerships in the delivery of welfare services most especially within a developing country context. I use a project case located in the South West region of Cameroon called RUMPI, jointly financed by the African Development Bank and Government of Cameroon to assess partnership contribution of two different types of institutions partnering for welfare d
Several lines of research within developmental psychology, experimental semiotics and language origins studies have recently converged in their interest in pantomime as a system of bodily communication distinct from both language (spoken or signed) and nonlinguistic gesticulation. These approaches underscore the effectiveness of pantomime, which despite lack of semiotic conventions is capable of c
Background: Fatigue is a debilitating symptom of multiple sclerosis (MS), but its relation to sociodemographic and disease-related characteristics has not been investigated in larger studies. The objectives of this study were to evaluate predictors of self-reported fatigue in a Swedish nationwide register-based MS cohort. Methods: Using a repeated cross-sectional design, we included 2,165 persons
Post hoc interventions rely on having access to certain personal data - such as the gender, age, ethnicity, and sexual orientation of the persons being evaluated - in order to detect and correct for prejudice. This brings these interventions into possible tension with pertinent data protection legislation, which might restrict the processing of said data. We discuss the compatibility of post hoc i
Using cyclic boundary conditions and LCAO basis allows one to reproduce both band and local properties of the electronic structure of a crystal. Electronic structure of a row of composite copper and lead crystalline oxides are studied within the CNDO approximation, and the local properties (atomic charges, bond orders, valencies) are analyzed. A comparison of the local properties of some high-Tc s
Background: Metastatic breast cancer (MBC) is a challenging disease, and despite new therapies, prognosis is still poor for a majority of patients. There is a clinical need for improved prognostication where immuno-oncology markers can provide important information. The aim of this study was to evaluate serum immuno-oncology markers in MBC patients and their respective relevance for prediction of
In recent times, pragmatics has made more and more room for the theory of discourse. The switch in emphasis was triggered, amid other phenomena and theories, by the flourishing pf the communication theory, with its tenet that the process of communication is quite unstable and unpredictable. It is not only the context the one which distorts the transmission of messages, but also the mood of those i
