Medicinska fakulteten forskar för att människor, i Sverige och globalt, ska få ett bättre och friskare liv. Vi kan inte göra viktiga forskningsframsteg på egen hand. Vi är beroende av organisationer, stiftelser och privatpersoner för samarbete och ovärderligt stöd. Tillsammans bidrar vi till att hitta nya lösningar på de globala hälsoutmaningarna.Vi vill rikta ett stort och varmt tack till våra ge

POInT-studien är en primär preventionsstudie där barn från 4–7 månaders ålder får oralt Insulin varje dag fram till 3 års ålder. Barnen som deltar har förhöjd ärftlig risk att utveckla autoantikroppar mot betacellerna i bukspottskörteln, som tillverkar insulin. Studien inkluderade 1050 barn mellan februari 2018 och mars 2021 i Tyskland, Sverige, England, Polen och Belgien. Covid-19 pandemin börjad
Topologioptimering är ett populärt och effektivt verktyg för att hitta smarta designer utformade för att fungera optimalt. Det aktuella forksningsarbetet presenterar en metod för att kunna optimera strukturer som utsätts för varierande laster där det inte är uppenbart var, eller när de högsta spänningarna kommer uppstå. Detta innebär att robusta strukturer smidigt kan genereras som kommer hålla föStress is a key component for structural designs in a variety of applications. The aim of this work is to obtain mechanical structures that are free of stress concentrations. A common ap- proach is to optimize a structure with respect to a specific load case. However, if the structure is subjected to other load cases than the one it has been optimized for, it may not withstand those loads. Also, i
Investments evaluation has been considerably studied by academics. Researchers argue that decisions are based on the least expensive investment because of the commoditization of Information Technology (IT) (Carr, 2003). Nevertheless, evaluating an investment strictly from a financial perspective may be problematic because it disregards other benefits that enhance organizational performance (Lin et
The development of good writing skills is fundamental not only to publish scientific results, but also to have a deeper understanding of complex subjects. However reports from the Swedish Higher Education Authority from 2012-2015 suggest that engineering students at Lund University have unsatisfactory academic writing skills. Our paper investigates how students of the Faculty of Engineering at Lun
Stability constants, βn, n = 1, 2, 3, 4, for the chloro and bromo complexes of palladium(II) have been calculated, using a least squares programme, from spectrophotometric measurements at 222, 234.5 and 279 nm (chloride) and at 247, 265, and 332 nm (bromide). The following values of lg(βn/M−n) were obtained: 4.47±0.01, 7.76±0.04, 10.17±0.07, and 11.54±0.09 (chloride) and 5.17±0.02, 9.42±0.04, 12.7
This research was part of the Salutary Umeå Study of Aerosols in Biomass Cookstove Emissions (SUSTAINE) laboratory experiment campaign. We studied ice-nucleating abilities of particulate emissions from solid-fuel-burning cookstoves, using a portable ice nuclei counter, Spectrometer Ice Nuclei (SPIN). These emissions were generated from two traditional cookstove types commonly used for household co
Despite a few reports of photoluminescent and strongly photo-oxidizing transition metal complexes with a d5 electronic configuration, the photophysics and photochemistry of this class of transition metal complexes have largely remained unexplored. Recent investigations of earth-abundant iron(III) N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) complexes have demonstrated promising photophysical and photochemical pro
A homoleptic organometallic FeIV complex that is stable in both solution and in the solid state at ambient conditions has been synthesized and isolated as [Fe(phtmeimb)2](PF6)2 (phtmeimb=[phenyl(tris(3-methylimidazolin-2-ylidene))borate]−). This FeIV N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) complex was characterized by 1H NMR, HR-MS, elemental analysis, scXRD analysis, electrochemistry, Mößbauer spectroscopy,
In coastal areas, there is increased concern aboutemissions from shipping activities and the associated impacton air quality. We have assessed the ship aerosol propertiesand the contribution to coastal particulate matter (PM) andnitrogen dioxide (NO2) levels by measuring ship plumes inambient conditions at a site in southern Sweden, within a SulfurEmission Control Area. Measurements took place dur
The CKD-EPI creatinine-based estimation equation for glomerular filtration rate (GFR) cannot be used in children, overestimates GFR in young adults, and its combination with the KDIGO recommended pediatric CKiD (Schwartz bedside) equation causes implausible increases in estimated GFR when switching from pediatric to adult care. By establishing sex-specific creatinine growth curves for children and
Objectives To explore how mandatory reporting to the supervisory authority of suicides among recipients of healthcare services has influenced associated investigations conducted by the healthcare services, the lessons obtained and whether any suicide-prevention-related improvements in terms of patient safety had followed. Design and settings Retrospective study of reports from Swedish primary and
The photofunctionality of the cobalt-hexacarbene complex [Co(III)(PhB(MeIm)3)2]+ (PhB(MeIm)3 = tris(3-methylimidazolin-2-ylidene)(phenyl)borate) has been investigated by time-resolved optical spectroscopy. The complex displays a weak (φ ∼10-4) but remarkably long-lived (τ ∼1 μs) orange photoluminescence at 690 nm in solution at room temperature following excitation with wavelengths shorter than 35
Hovering insects are divided into two categories: ‘normal’ hoverers that move the wing symmetrically in a horizontal stroke plane, and those with an inclined stroke plane. Normal hoverers have been suggested to support their weight during both downstroke and upstroke, shedding vortex rings each half-stroke. Insects with an inclined stroke plane should, according to theory, produce flight forces on
Residential biomass combustion is a significant source of aerosol particles on regional and global scales influencing climate and human health. The main objective of the current study was to investigate the properties of cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) emitted from biomass burning of solid fuels in different cookstoves mostly of relevance to sub- Saharan east Africa. The traditional three-stone fi
Raman spectroscopy is a powerful technique that allows for simultaneous measurements of multiple species; however, it suffers from low signal intensity and, in diagnostics of ammonia (NH3) combustion, strong flame fluorescence. The current work re-introduces a multipass setup to perform enhanced quantitative Raman spectroscopy measurements of major species and nitric oxide (NO) in a premixed lamin
