This paper deals with questions of romanization of the Chinese language. It examines the history of phonetic Chinese transcription and writing systems, from the first occurrences of such systems in the 16th century to the present day. The paper’s main focus is on the two systems Gwoyeu Romatzyh and Latinxua Sinwenz which were in use from the 1920s to the 1940s and aimed at replacing Chinese chara
Föreliggande examensarbete i Medical Humanities har utförts för att pröva lyrikens möjligheter i medicinsk utbildning och fortbildning. Skönlitteratur används i utbildningen av läkare i Sverige men lyrik är en hittills outnyttjad resurs i detta sammanhang. Med hjälp av ett begränsat urval dikter, som har tolkats, visas att lyriken har möjligheter att förmedla en fördjupad förståelse av sjukdom ur The present thesis in Medical Humanities have been conducted to examine poetry opportunities in medical education and training. Literature is used in the training of doctors in Sweden, but poetry is a hitherto untapped resource in this context. A selection of poems have been interpreted. Limited number of examples shows that poetry has the potential to convey a deeper understanding of the disease
Honour related violence has been up for political discussion in the last two decades in Sweden, a discourse primarily concerned with girls. In the absence of a legislation concerning honour related violence, children in need of protection can receive it through the Care of Young Persons Act (CYPA). The purpose of this thesis is to study how the second paragraph in the CYPA is applied by Administra
Abstract Through today’s Cloud platforms, one can easily gain access to several services that eases collaboration and data storage.

The thesis is done in collaboration with Telavox, who wants to broaden the prod
Armenia is a small, land-locked, transitional economy in the region of South Caucasus with a huge potential of developing its solar energy system. The challenges that the country’s energy sector is facing, such as high dependence on imported natural gas and oil, energy dependence on a single market, high transport costs, old and inefficient infrastructure, as well as the risk of repetition of ener
Bakgrund: På grund av krig, förföljelser och kränkningar ökar flyktingströmmarna i världen. Antalet människor på flykt 2021 var 89,3 miljoner. Miljöförändringar som asylsökande och flyktingar upplever påverkar alla aspekter av deras dagliga liv och uppfattning om sig själva. Begränsade möjligheter till meningsfulla aktiviteter i mottagarlandet har en ytterligare negativ påverkan på hälsa och välbeBackground: Refugee flows worldwide are increasing due to war, persecutions and harassments. In 2021 the number of refugees globally reached 89,3 million. Environment changes influenced asylum seekers and refugees in all aspects of daily living and self-concepts. Limited opportunities to participate in meaningful activities in the host country had a further negative impact on health and well-being
Secretagogin is a calcium-binding protein whose expression is characterised in neuroendocrine, pancreatic, and retinal cells. We have used an array-based proteomic approach with the prokaryotically expressed human protein array (hEx1) and the eukaryotically expressed human protein array (Protoarray) to identify novel calcium-regulated interaction networks of secretagogin. Screening of these arrays
We present a measurement of inclusive J/psi production in p-Pb collisions at root S-NN = 5.02 TeV as a function of the centrality of the collision, as estimated from the energy deposited in the Zero Degree Calorimeters. The measurement is performed with the ALICE detector down to zero transverse momentum, p(T), in the backward (-4.46 < y(cms) < -2.96) and forward (2.03 < y(cms) < 3.53) rapidity in
To examine the association between autonomic regulation and length of pain-related sick leave in subjects receiving a cognitive behavioural therapy-based return to work intervention. METHODS: Sixty-five persons (29 men, 36 women) on pain-related sick leave participated in the study. Electrocardiograms were recorded in the clinic during supine rest, passive head-up tilt, standing, and seated rest,
Leukocyte telomere length (LTL) has been regarded as a potential marker of biologic aging because it usually shortens in a predictable way with age. Recently, a growing interest in cardiovascular aging has led to a number of new epidemiologic studies investigating LTL in various disease conditions. Some methodological problems exist because there are different methods available to determine LTL, a
Four cultivars of strawberries (Senga Sengana, BFr77111, Elsanta, and Honeoye) were studied for their content of antioxidants, total antioxidant capacity, and low molecular weight carbohydrates in relation to harvest year, ripening stage, and cold storage. For ascorbic acid, chlorogenic acid, ellagic acid, and total antioxidative capacity, measured in both water-soluble and water-insoluble extract
Acrylamide is formed via the Maillard reaction between reducing sugars and asparagine in a number of carbohydrate-rich foods during heat treatment. High acrylamide levels have been found in potato products processed at high temperatures. To examine the impact of harvest year, information on weather conditions during growth, that is, temperature, precipitation, and light, was collected, together wi
The copolymer of 3-(acrylamido)phenyl boronic acid and N-isopropylacrylamide (82:18. M-n = 47000 g/mol) was prepared by free radical polymerization. The copolymer showed typical thermoprecipitation behavior in aqueous solutions; its phase transition temperature (T-p) was 26.5 +/- 0.2 degrees C in 0.1 M glycine-NaOH buffer containing 0.1 M NaCl, pH 9.2. Due to specific complex formation of the pend
Phubbing beskriver fenomenet då en eller flera personer under en social interaktion tar upp sin mobiltelefon och riktar sin uppmärksamhet mot den istället för den eller de en umgås med. Phubbing har i tidigare kvantitativa studier visat sig ge upphov till negativa känslor och tycks påverka relationer och relationskvalitet negativt. Därför ämnar denna kvalitativa studie besvara forskningsfrågan: Hu
The aim of this study was to examine support given to adult female victims of human trafficking for sexual purposes, by interviewing Swedish professionals within the organisation field. The focus was on how the support given in Sweden is adjusted to meet the women’s needs according to the professionals. We also examined the follow-up within other countries and their collaboration with Swedish orga
The growing interest in the business environment for sustainable products and services coupled with regulatory mandates have led corporate to shift their focus towards sustainability as a vital part of organizational strategy. The intrinsic aspects handling the environmental, economic and social concerns, are now catalyzed with technology. Exploring sustainability through the digital lens is incre
På Lunds Tekniska Högskola studenter som studerar på programmet Civilingenjör inom Kemiteknik en obligatorisk kurs Energiteknik KETF30. Kursen har ett laborationsmoment om värmeväxling som behöver förnyas. Målet med kandidatarbetet är att få fram en laborationsbeskrivning med fokus på värmeväxlarens beteende beroende på olika parametrar och jämföra de två metoder som kan användas för att beskriva At Lund University, students in the program Chemical engineering have a compulsory course Heat Engineering (Energiteknik KETF30). The course has a laboratory practical concerning heat exchanger that needs to be renewed. The goal of this bachelor thesis was to write a description for the practical, focusing on the heat exchanger’s behavior considering different parameters and comparing the who comm
The purpose of this study is to examine how one non-governmental organisation (NGO) through its digital communication on Facebook constructs the image of women, and how it frames problems and solutions associated to women’s liberation. Since an increased number of NGOs have now an outspoken ambition concerning gender equality, this study intends to determine and discover whether their communicatio
