Introduction: Social participation can have a positive impact on health; however, physical challenges can be hindrances. During a preventive home visit a health professional (visitor) assesses different aspects of physical, mental and social health. However, there might be a challenge for the visitor to discover the interrelationship between physical factors that hinder social participation. There
To connect research with the classroom, the Research School in Stem Cell Biology at the Lund Stem Cell Center started the new "Take Science to Schools – Borrow a Scientist," bringing researchers into local high schools to give students a unique look at the world of stem cell research and the everyday life of scientists. The program, which was first launched in 2019 by the Research School in Stem C

Coronary Atherosclerotic Heart Disease (CAHD) is one kind of severe heart disease that is the dominating cause of death from non-communicable diseases worldwide. CAHD can be early detected through pre-symptomatic health check-ups, and the electrocardiogram (ECG) is common for non-invasive health check diagnoses. Traditionally, ECG signals are utilized to extract clinical features that are then inp

Summary: Floodwater mosquitoes occur in temporary flooded areas and can cause tremendous nuisance in the near and far surroundings. In the Nedre Dalälven region in Central Sweden, mosquito control is based on application of the biological larvicide Bacillus thuringiensis israelensis (BTI) by helicopter. Precise mapping of the floodwater mosquito breeding sites, a prerequisite for successful BTI tr
This thesis explores the parametric and nonparametric approaches for estimating Value at Risk and Expected Shortfall through foreign exchange exposure. The data for this study was provided by Trelleborg Group. We look at the translational risk on the balance sheet when translating the Groups investments in foreign subsidiaries to SEK. In the parametric approach we make the assumption that the po

The increase in electric vehicles has led to more vehicles of this kind being involved in accidents. Since there is a risk of a delayed initiation of thermal runaway in these cases, many countries have recommendations for safety distances from crashed vehicles to buildings.

The orchid Ophrys sphegodes Miller is pollinated by sexually excited males of the solitary bee Andrena nigroaenea, which are lured to the flowers by visual cues and volatile semiochemicals. In O. sphegodes, visits by pollinators are rare. Because of this low frequency of pollination, one would expect the evolution of strategies that increase the chance that males will visit more than one flower on

In response to the pressures of predation, parasitism and competition for limited resources, several groups of (mainly) tropical bees and wasps have independently evolved a nocturnal lifestyle. Like their day-active (diurnal) relatives, these insects possess apposition compound eyes, a relatively light-insensitive eye design that is best suited to vision in bright light. Despite this, nocturnal be
Wildfires are a major driver of ecosystem development and contributor to carbon emissions in boreal forests. We analyzed the contribution of fires of different fire size classes to the total burned area and suggest a novel fire characteristic, the characteristic fire size, i.e., the fire size class with the highest contribution to the burned area, its relation to bioclimatic conditions, and intra-
In Skånska årsfester in 1973, I described a few Christmas pranks from the Scanian Recording Collections. The best covered research, "go Christmas ghost" remained untreated. The custom was known since at least the mid-18th century and appeared in most of Scania and a few parishes in Blekinge until the 1930s. Young people made themselves unrecognizable by girls being dressed in outmoded male clothin
