Promoting lifestyle change through text messages to patients with hypertension: A randomized controlled trial in Swedish primary care

ObjectiveWe aimed to investigate whether health-promoting text messages sent to patients with hypertension in primary care could affect lifestyle habits, and if the Theory of Planned Behavior could be used to identify moderators of intervention effects.MethodsFrom September 2020 to December 2022, patients with hypertension were randomly selected from the patient register at 10 Swedish primary heal

Fragmented Power : The Reception of China's Foreign Policy Strategies in Sri Lanka

This dissertation proposes a theory concerning China’s “Fragmented Power” in its foreign policy pursuits by analyzing the reception of the “Belt and Road” Initiative in Sri Lanka. The initiative has sparked intense debates and counteractions on the global stage and has become synonymous with Xi Jinping’s assertive approach to foreign policy. However, many aspects of the initiative’s goals, impleme

Scalable Control Design for Networked Systems : Coordination Through Local Cooperation

This thesis investigates scalable control design for networked dynamical systems, which are of great importance due to their wide range of practical applications, including large-scale formation control. A central challenge in such systems is enabling agents to coordinate effectively based only on local and relative information, particularly as the system size increases. To address this, the thesi

Single-Step Production and Self-Assembly of Magnetic Nanostructures for Magneto-Responsive Soft Films

Magneto-responsive soft films constitute a fascinating class of smart materials and devices capable of performing various tasks, such as micromanipulation or transport, noninvasive surgery, and sensing. These components are fabricated by incorporating magnetic materials into flexible substrates. In this context, arranging magnetic particles into elongated chains exhibiting shape anisotropy has sho

Direct device integration of single 1D nanoparticle assemblies; a magnetization reversal and magnetotransport study

Nanochains (NCs) made up of a one-dimensional arrangement of magnetic anoparticles (NPs) exhibit anisotropic properties with potential for various applications. Herein, using a novel self-assembly method we directly integrate single NCs onto desired substrates including devices. We present a nanoscopic analysis of magnetization reversal in 1D linear NP arrays by combining x-ray microscopy, magnet

Disability and Care in Late Medieval Lund, Sweden : An Analysis of Trauma and Intersecting Identities, Aided by Photogrammetric Digitization and Visualization

This article is a Bioarchaeology of Care and Disability focused analysis of an individual who suffered a severe fracture of the left knee in Late Medieval Lund, Scania (1300–1536 CE). We question the degree to which written sources from the period represent the reality of the disability experience, and to that end how identities intersect in the Medieval urban landscape. Following an index of care
