Background Mental health interventions should demonstrate an effect on patients' functioning as well as his/her needs, in particular on unmet needs whose assessment depends on the perspective of either the patient or the clinician. However, individual met and unmet needs appear to change over time, qualitatively and quantitatively, raising questions about their sensitivity to change and about the
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the possible role of FCGR2A 519A>G and FCGR3A 559A>C functional polymorphisms in the genetic predisposition to susceptibility to systemic sclerosis (SSc) or clinical phenotype. METHODS: A total of 1566 patients with SSc and 2271 geographically matched controls were included in our study. We analyzed the genotype and allele frequencies of the FCGR2A 519A>G and FCGR3A 559A>
Group exhibition.'The horizon is always receding' brings together a selection of works that reflect on the scope and the implications that the term contemporary may have. As the philosopher Giorgio Agamben suggests, contemporaneity can be understood as a term that surpasses temporal demarcations and transcends simultaneity and coexistence. In this sense, this exhibition serves as a symptomatic dis
Older people have more functional limitations than younger people and they form a segment of the population that is more dependent on mobility devices than other age groups. Since they spend most of their time at home, their dwelling is an important environmental arena for performing everyday activities. Barriers in the environment can limit or hinder activity performance. Therefore, older people
Flera forskningsprojekt vid vår avdelning är inriktade på att bättre förstå mekanismer som ligger bakom utvecklingen av svåra infektionssjukdomar, fr.a. orsakade av bakterier men också av virus och svampar. Utgångspunkten för arbetet har ofta varit upptäckten av bakteriella ytproteiner och enzymer som på olika sätt interagerar med människans försvarssystem (medfödd och förvärvad immunitet och blodSeveral research projects at our Division are focused on molecular and cellular mechanisms that contribute to the development of severe infections caused preferentially by bacteria, but also by viruses and fungi. The starting point for this work has often been the discovery of bacterial surface proteins and enzymes that interact with human defenses (innate and acquired immunity and blood coagulati
We present a method to add confidence limits to level curves, drawn on a map of a Gaussian random surface, measured with or without error on a regular or irregular grid. The method is based on the conditional level crossing intensity measure for non-stationary Gaussian fields.
Nominated exchange students can apply for so-called 'Special Area Study' (SAS) courses in a wide range of subjects across eight out of nine faculties at Lund University. These courses are a wonderful opportunity for you to learn more about subjects outside your major. The course offerings include courses mostly focusing on one discipline as well as interdisciplinary courses tackling contemporary s
En grundläggande utgångspunkt i både den kontradiktoriska rättegången inför allmän domstol och i skiljeförfarande är att parterna svarar för bevisningen. Eftersom tillgången till relevant bevisning ofta är avgörande för utgången i en tvist, är möjligheten att göra gällande en motparts eller tredje mans processuella editionsplikt av central betydelse för en informationsfattig part. Vid framställa
Purpose: Volumetry of cerebral ventricles is a far more sensitive measure for shunt-induced reduction of ventricular size than traditional 2-dimensional (2D) measures, such as Evans index. However, available ventricle segmentation methods are time-consuming, resulting in limited use in clinical practice. Quantitative MRI (qMRI) obtains objective measurements of physical tissue properties, enabling
Pre-and postoperative photos to assess results are widely used in plastic and reconstructive surgery, for instance, in patients with cleft lip and palate (CL/P). Evaluations are often performed by assessment panels by viewing the photos. However, these are prone to be subjective. Measurements of soft tissues in photos could be an alternative method but have not been widely used so far. Some patien
Take the opportunity to apply for exchange studies in the USA. The exchange programme with the University of California (UC) is Lund University’s oldest and largest, both in terms of hosting and sending exchange students.

We present a-posteriori analysis of higher order finite element approximations (hp-FEM) for quadratic Fredholm-valued operator functions. Residual estimates for approximations of the algebraic eigenspaces are derived and we reduce the analysis of the estimator to the analysis of an associated boundary value problem. For the reasons of robustness we also consider approximations of the associated in
