We have measured the uptake capacity of nitrogen (N) and potassium (K) from different soil depths by injecting N-15 and caesium (Cs; as an analogue to K) at 5 and 50 cm soil depth and analysing the recovery of these markers in foliage and buds. The study was performed in monocultures of 40-year-old pedunculate oak (Quercus robur), European beech (Fagus sylvatica) and Norway spruce (Picea abies (L.

This study aimed to assess the costs and benefits of three alternative second-line treatment strategies for Swedish patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) who fail to reach glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) ≤ 7% with metformin treatment alone: glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists, dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors, and neutral protamine Hagedorn (NPH) insulin.

Background: Fruit and vegetable consumption might prevent weight gain through their low energy density and high dietary fiber content. Objective: We assessed the association between the baseline consumption of fruit and vegetables and weight change in participants from 10 European countries participating in the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition study. Design: Diet was as

Many preterm infants are not capable of exclusive breastfeeding from birth. To guide mothers in breastfeeding, it is important to know when preterm infants can initiate breastfeeding and progress. The aim was to analyse postmenstrual age (PMA) at breastfeeding milestones in different preterm gestational age (GA) groups, to describe rates of breastfeeding duration at pre-defined times, as well as a

This doctoral thesis comprises a critical edition of a previously unpublished manuscript from the late seventeenth century, which is housed in Lund University Library. The manuscript consists of copies of eighty-eight letters and other documents in Latin. The originals were, in most cases, written by country vicars from Scania, a Swedish province that until 1658 was part of Denmark. The identity o

A search has been performed for the experimental signature of an isolated photon with high transverse momentum, at least one jet identified as originating from a bottom quark, and high missing transverse momentum. Such a final state may originate from supersymmetric models with gauge-mediated supersymmetry breaking in events in which one of a pair of higgsino-like neutralinos decays into a photon

A search for the direct production of charginos and neutralinos in final states with three electrons or muons and missing transverse momentum is presented. The analysis is based on 4.7 fb(-1) of root s = 7 TeV proton-proton collision data delivered by the Large Hadron Collider and recorded with the ATLAS detector. Observations are consistent with Standard Model expectations in three signal regions

Background: Up to half the residents of nursing homes for the elderly have asymptomatic bacteriuria (ABU), which should not be treated with antibiotics. A complementary test to discriminate between symptomatic urinary tract infections (UTI) and ABU is needed, as diagnostic uncertainty is likely to generate significant antibiotic overtreatment. Previous studies indicate that Interleukin-6 (IL-6) in

Switching from oil to biofuels appears to be good business for the Swedish pulp and paper industry today. Mixing traditional wood fuels with sludge residues makes the transition even more profitable. Public financial support of 159 MSEK has pulled the four pulp and paper industries studied in this thesis to invest another 538 MSEK, creating annual cost savings of 150 MSEK per year. This thesis sho

This thesis explores the causes and ramifications of representing women in gender-equality advocacy within the realm of International Development cooperation’s. This study shows that through representing the issues of development and the people for whom they are aimed - we risk constructing and reconstructing conceptions of what the postcolonial feminist field of studies calls ´third world differe

Barns rättigheter har konsekvent missbrukats under väpnade konflikter. Det har skett mer än 266 000 allvarliga kränkningar av barns rättigheter mellan 2005 och 2020, även om det verkliga antalet förmodligen är högre. FN har identifierat sex allvarliga kränkningar av barns rättigheter vid väpnade konflik-ter. Avhandlingen syftar till att belysa hur upprättelse för kränkningar av de sex allvarliga kChildren’s rights have consistently been abused during armed conflicts. There have been more than 266,000 grave violations against children’s rights be-tween 2005 and 2020, even though the real number probably is higher. The UN has identified six grave violations against children’s right during armed conflict. The thesis aims to highlight how the reparation for violation of the six grave violation

Syftet med denna uppsats är att analysera Fackföreningslagen och dess potentiella konsekvenser för fackföreningars föreningsfrihet i den kambodjanska textilindustrin. Utöver detta analyseras lagen i förhållande till redan befintlig nationell lagstiftning samt i relation till internationell rätt rörande föreningsfrihet. Majoriteten av Fackföreningslagens regleringar är oförenliga med internationeThe aim of the thesis is to elaborately analyse the Trade Union Law and its possible implications for trade unions’ right to freedom of association in the Cambodian garment industry. In addition, the law is evaluated in relation to already existing domestic law and in relation to international law regarding freedom of association. The majority of the Trade Union Law’s provisions are incompatible

Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka hur fitness influencers på plattformen Instagram använder sig av erfarenheter kring mental- och fysisk ohälsa för att skildra sig själva som autentiska individer. Dessa motgångar antogs leda till upprättandet av emotionella band med deras följare, och därmed ett stärkande av influencernas varumärkesidentiteter. Tidigare forskning visar att autenticitet spe

This qualitative case study provides a communication-driven perspective into the functioning of teleworking in the post-Covid Danish work society. Teleworking, performing office work outside of the conventional office space by using ICTs, became part of the modern-day work arrangement of many employees, mainly due to the severe effects of the Covid-19 pandemic on the world economy. This study’s ai

This study analyses how then Facebook Inc. communicated their rebranding to Meta while in the middle of their worst public relations crisis to date, as well as how the news of Meta’s rebranding was framed in the Swedish news media. Through the theoretical framework of image repair and framing, the purpose of this study is to provide deeper knowledge on the aspect of rebranding within the contex

Myanmar is the world's second-largest producer of opium poppy, the raw material from which heroin and opium are produced. 85% of this opium poppy is cultivated in rural areas of Shan State, where about 1 in 10 households in the villages are directly involved in opium poppy cultivation for the drug industry (MIMU, 2017). The economy of opium poppy permeates social and family dynamics; nonethele
