Det skjutvapenrelaterade våldet i Sverige har ökat kraftigt sedan 1990-talet, och trots att hela Sverige är drabbat sticker Region Skåne och då främst Malmö ut. Även om en stor del av skottlossningarna riktas mot byggnader och fordon dör och skadas årligen ett tiotal personer i staden. Även explosionsvåldet har ökat både i landet och i Malmö och det kan vara ett tecken på ett trendbrott inom den gGun-related violence in Sweden has increased dramatically since the 1990s, and while the entire country has been affected, the Skåne region and Malmö in particular stand out. Although many of the shootings are directed at buildings and vehicles, more than ten people are killed and injured in the city every year. Violence caused by explosives has also increased both in Malmö and in the country as a

Förutom att Malmö har flest anmälda brott i relation till sin folkmängd, är det också en av de städer i landet med högst andel skjutvapenrelaterat våld. Våra tidigare studier visar att de som begår grova brott som mord eller dråp och försök till mord eller dråp i Malmö främst är ensamstående, har ingen psykiatrisk diagnos och använder sig främst av kniv eller annat vasst tillhygge vid sina dåd, ävIn addition to Malmö having the most reported crimes in relation to its population, it is also one of the cities in the country with the highest percentage of gun-related violence. Our earlier studies show that people who commit serious crimes such as homicide or attempted homicide in Malmö are primarily single, have no psychiatric diagnosis and mainly use knives or other sharp weapons to commit t

Malmö stad och dess invånare rör sig i en historisk tid och i en föränder­­lig miljö: sedan 1990 har staden vuxit med 43 procent. I Brottslighet och utsatthet i Malmö presenteras ett axplock av aktuell forskning, dess tillämpning och den påverkan som brottsligheten och utsattheten har och har haft på Malmö sedan början av 2000-talet.Brottslighet och utsatthet i Malmö tar upp ämnen som skjutvapens-Malmö and its inhabitants are living in a historical era and in a changing environment – in a city that has grown with 43 percent since 1990. Crime, Victimization and Vulnerability in Malmö presents a selection of current research, and the impact that crime, victimization and vulnerability have had on Malmö since the early 2000s.Crime, Victimization and Vulnerability in Malmö addresses topics such

It is a well‐known fact in scanning probe microscopy that the tip geometry will be convoluted with the shape of the sample. In this study we report on a clear‐cut in situ direct observation of the real shape of the atomic force microscopy (AFM) tip using the AFM technique itself, utilizing a specially designed sample. The sample was an array of columns fabricated using aerosol deposition of metal

The impact of many unfavorable childhood traits or diseases, such as low birth weight and mental disorders, is not limited to childhood and adolescence, as they are also associated with poor outcomes in adulthood, such as cardiovascular disease. Insight into the genetic etiology of childhood and adolescent traits and disorders may therefore provide new perspectives, not only on how to improve well

OBJECTIVE: Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is a transient form of diabetes characterized by impaired insulin secretion and action during pregnancy. Population-based differences in prevalence exist which could be explained by phenotypic and genetic differences. The aim of this study was to examine these differences in pregnant women from Punjab, India and Scandinavia.METHODS: 85 GDM/T2D loci in

Målsättning: Sveriges första sinnessjukstadga utfärdades 1858. Vi ville studera patienter med psykisk sjukdom och den vård de fick vid förra sekelskiftet.Patienter och metod: Patienter med psykisk sjukdom (n=503) som vårdades på Kristianstads lasarett 1896-1905 studerades, för att få en bild av diagnoser/diagnostik, behandling och förlopp. För 92 patienter återfanns även journaler vid Lunds hospit

BACKGROUND: Bacterial surfaces are complex systems, constructed from membranes, peptidoglycan and, importantly, proteins. The proteins play crucial roles as critical regulators of how the bacterium interacts with and survive in its environment. A full catalog of the motifs in protein families and their relative conservation grade is a prerequisite to target the protein-protein interaction that bac

Control of electric fields over large areas is crucial for the accurate delivery and manipulation of biologically important molecules in microfluidic systems. In this paper we present a novel method for generating tunable uniform electric fields over large microfluidic arrays in two dimensions, and its application to a microfabricated device that separates genomic DNA. The device fractionates larg

High resolution 100 kV electron beam lithography in thin layers of the negative resist SU-8 is demonstrated. Sub-30 nm lines with a pitch down to 300 nm are written in 100 nm thick SU-8. Two reactive ion etch processes are developed in order to transfer the SU-8 structures into a silicon substrate, a Soft O-2-Plasma process to remove SU-8 residues on the silicon surface after development and a hig
