Background: Despite the fact that HIV-positive women carry an increased risk of developing cervical cancer (CC) in comparison with HIV-negative women, HIV and CC screening programs in many developing countries have remained unintegrated. The objective of this study is to explore perceptions and preferences of community members in Uganda, including women, men, and village health teams, regarding th

Background: Home care service (HCS) for sick children is a complex healthcare service, which can be organised in various models. Despite the possibility to support family everyday life, the accessibility and utilisation may still be limited. The aim of this study was to (i) determine characteristics in referrals to county-based HCS, (ii) determine characteristics of referred children and (iii) ass

Large biobanks and data collections that contain details on health and diseases in the population are an invaluable source of knowledge.Lund University’s Faculty of Medicine has a long tradition of engaging citizens and patients in major, epidemiological studies. Gathered data is an important basis for various research projects.Below are a few examples of some of the population studies that have b

Syftet med detta examensarbete var att skapa en modell för sambandet mellan absorbans och koncentrationen av sam-eluerurande proteiner. Med jonbyteskromatografi systemet ÄKTA från GE-Healthcare utfördes en separation mellan de tre proteinerna BSA, Lysozyme och IgG. Absorbansen mättes med en UV-mätare vid tre våglängder. Eftersom de nämnda proteinerna inte sameluerar i ett neuturalt pH-värde utfördThe aim of this thesis is to create a model of the correlation between absorbance and concentration of co-eluting proteins. A separation using the chromatograph system ÄKTA from GE-Health care of BSA,Lysozyme and IgG was performed. Absorbance was measured at three different wave lengths. Since the mentioned proteins do not co-elute in a neutral pH the experiments were performed at a high pH-level

Purpose: Global megatrends such as urbanization and ageing of the population result in fast-paced demographic changes, which pose different types of challenges for different regions. While many rural municipalities bear the burden of under-used buildings, cities are in a hurry to develop new ones to meet new space demands. The purpose of this paper is to assess the potential of relocatable modular

The financial crisis in 2008 enlightened several shortcomings in the performance of the banking sector. As a result of this a more rigid regulatory framework, Basel III, has been developed which raises the requirements of banks’ capital and liquidity structure and internal capital adequacy processes. This involves evaluating potential future risks related to the strategy and risk appetite of a ban

Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common form of arthritis and often causes pain and functional impairment. Despite its high burden on society, knowledge about the occurrence of OA and its associated mortality is sparse. The epidemiology of OA is difficult to determine due to the patients’ fluctuating symptoms and challenges in detecting and defining the radiographic disease. The specific aims of th

INTRODUCTION: There is limited knowledge on how the SARS-CoV-2 affects pregnancy outcomes. Studies investigating the impact of COVID-19 in early pregnancy are scarce and information on long-term follow-up is lacking.The purpose of this project is to study the impact of COVID-19 on pregnancy outcomes and long-term maternal and child health by: (1) establishing a database and biobank from pregnant w

Exacerbations are the key drivers in the costs of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The objective was to examine the costs of COPD exacerbations in relation to differing degrees of severity of exacerbations and of COPD. We identified 202 subjects with COPD, defined according to the BTS and ERS criteria. Exacerbations were divided into mild (self-managed), mild/moderate (telephone conta

Background: The association between different patterns of healthcare use and non-recovery in patients with spinal disorders is unclear. We aimed to assess the association between healthcare use and non-recovery 6 months after a specialist evaluation in Norwegian secondary care and whether non-recovery was linked to adherence to specialist-recommended care. Methods: This observational registry-base
