Trafikinformation i kollektivtrafiken - En fallstudie om trafikinformationens organisatoriska utmaningar

Kollektivtrafiken är en viktig del av transportsektorn för att uppnå både EU:s och Sveriges klimatmål. För att fler resor ska kunna ersättas med hållbara resor behöver kollektivtrafiken bli mer attraktiv, och ett utvecklingsområde för det är att förbättra trafikinformationen. Trafikinformation värderas högt, inte bara utifrån dess tillgänglighet, utan även utifrån kvaliteten. Den påverkar både denPublic transport is an important part of the transport sector in achieving both the EU’s and Sweden’s climate goals. In order to replace more journeys with sustainable alternatives, public transport needs to become more attractive, and one area for development is the improvement of traffic information. Traffic information is highly valued, not only in terms of its availability, but also in terms o

“I thought I was going to die” - en studie om flickors reproduktiva hälsa vid mensfattigdom

Bakgrund: Menstruation är en naturlig fysiologisk process och miljontals flickor menstruerar varje dag. Trots detta påverkas den menstruella hälsan av mensfattigdom vilket är mer vanligt i en fattig kontext, där bland annat kulturella seder riter och tabun får en stor inverkan, ofta på grund av brist på information och rätt kunskap. Mensfattigdom är ett samlingsbegrepp som grundar sig i bristen på

Integrerad eller separerad cykelinfrastruktur? – En litteratur- och intervjustudie om trafiksäkerhet för cyklister i korsningar

Cykeln är ett enkelt och effektivt transportsätt med flera trafiktekniska, miljömässiga och sociala fördelar. Trots det kan cykelinfrastrukturen i många fall vara eftersatt och bortprioriterad. De flesta dödsolyckor i cykeltrafiken sker vid kollision med motorfordon vilket gör interaktionen med motorfordon intressant. Främst kan cykelinfrastruktur i korsningar utformas integrerat där cyklister förThe bicycle is an efficient mode of transport that is often deprioritized. The intersection, where many casualties occur, can be designed either integrated or separated. The aim of this thesis is to investigate the safety effects of these designs, the motives behind them and to decide if the distinction between them is relevant by doing a literature review as well as an interview review. It is har

Experimental toolkit to study the oncogenic role of WNT signaling in colorectal cancer

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is linked to the WNT/β-catenin signaling as its primary driver. Aberrant activation of WNT/β-catenin signaling is closely correlated with increased incidence, malignancy, poorer prognosis, and even higher cancer-related death. Research over the years has postulated various experimental models that have facilitated an understanding of the complex mechanisms underlying WNT si

Adsorption and Spreading of Sponge-Phase Lipid Nanoparticles on SiO2 and TiO2 Surfaces : Ion-Specific Effects and Particle Structure

Among different lipid nanoparticle systems, sponge-phase nanoparticles (SPNPs) have recently attracted interest due to their ability to encapsulate large macromolecules along with demonstrated high interfacial activity. The potential application of SPNPs calls for investigations into how buffer conditions affect SPNP structure and interfacial activity. Herein, we systematically investigated how di

EDGE-INFERNO : Simulating Every Observable Star in Faint Dwarf Galaxies and Their Consequences for Resolved-star Photometric Surveys

Interpretation of data from faint dwarf galaxies is made challenging by observations limited to only the brightest stars. We present a major improvement to tackle this challenge by undertaking zoomed cosmological simulations that resolve the evolution of all individual stars more massive than 0.5 M⊙, thereby explicitly tracking all observable stars for the Hubble time. For the first time, we predi

The incidence of radiologically verified community-acquired pneumonia requiring hospitalisation in adults living in southern Sweden, 2016-2018 : a population-based study

Background: Community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) was one of the most common causes of death in the European Union in 2017. Severity and mortality of CAP increase with age and an aging European population will require increased planning for prevention, control, and management of CAP. The purpose of this study was to provide an updated population-based estimate of the incidence of CAP requiring hospit

Adverse Pregnancy Outcomes and Long-Term Risk of Heart Failure in Women : National Cohort and Co-Sibling Study

Background: Adverse pregnancy outcomes, such as preterm delivery and hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, may be associated with higher future risks of heart failure (HF). However, the comparative effects of different adverse pregnancy outcomes on long-term risk of HF, and their potential causality, are unclear. OBJECTIVES: The authors sought to examine 5 major adverse pregnancy outcomes in relati

Multigenerational family coaggregation study of obsessive-compulsive disorder and cardiometabolic disorders

Background Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is associated with an increased risk of morbidity and mortality due to cardiometabolic disorders. Whether this association is driven by familial factors is unknown. This population-based family study explored the familial co-aggregation of OCD and cardiometabolic disorders. Methods We identified 6 049 717 individuals born in Sweden between 1950 and 20

Aging towards walkable futures : insights from a multidisciplinary workshop held in Barcelona, Spain

Background: The aging of the world’s population and the increase in sedentary lifestyles are leading to an increase in walking impairments at older ages. Here, we aimed to comprehensively discuss walking in the context of an aging population; and identify and agree on a list of future research priorities and policy actions. Methods: We followed a participatory approach and held a multidisciplinary

Nonlinear forecasting with many predictors using mixed data sampling kernel ridge regression models

Policy institutes such as central banks need accurate forecasts of key measures of economic activity to design stabilization policies that reduce the severity of economic fluctuations. Therefore, this paper develops a kernel ridge regression estimator in a mixed data sampling framework. Kernel ridge regression can handle many predictors with a nonlinear relationship to the target variable. Consequ

Exploring Authenticity in the Dialogical Self : A Conceptual Assemblage

In dialogical self theory (DST) authenticity has not been a central concern. The humanist notion of a static, higher-order, superordinate, ultimate, and “true” self runs counter to the ontology of DST, and the conceptualization of the dialogical self as unconsolidated, multifaceted, dynamic, and sensitive to situational change. In a climate in which the psychology of authenticity is undergoing rev

Coherence of an Electronic Two-Level System under Continuous Charge Sensing by a Quantum Dot Detector

We investigate experimentally the quantum coherence of an electronic two-level system in a double quantum dot under continuous charge detection. The charge state of the two-level system is monitored by a capacitively coupled single quantum dot detector that imposes a backaction effect on the system. The measured backaction is well described by an additional decoherence rate, approximately linearly

Noden i Varvsstaden - en strategi för att gestalta med tid

En stad är aldrig färdig, genom byggda förändringar och omförhandlade relationer. Samtidigt är en stad alltid färdig genom nuet hos dem som bor i den. Detta projekt syftar till att undersöka denna paradox och hur medvetenheten om tid och förändring kan berika design. Det studerade området för projektet är Varvsstaden i Malmö. En plats som en gång i tiden var en del av ett av världens största skeA city is always in the process of becoming, through built changes and renegotiated relationships. At the same time, a city is always finished through the present of those who live in it. This project aims to investigate this paradox and how the awareness of time and change can enrich design. The studied area of the project is Varvsstaden in Malmö. A place which was once a part of one of the lar
