AIMS: Previous studies show inconsistencies in vasovagal syncope (VVS) symptoms and haemodynamic responses across age and sex groups, with limited evaluation of tilt test results. This study comprehensively examines differences in triggers, prodromal and syncopal symptoms, and head-up tilt test (HUTT) responses among VVS patients by age and sex providing new insights.METHODS AND RESULTS: We analys

En analyserande skildring av Visby domkyrkas historia från medeltiden till idag.Från köpmanskyrka till katedral - Visby domkyrkas historia 1500st I över 800 år har Visby domkyrka Sankta Maria stått som ett landmärke i hjärtat av den medeltida hansestaden Visby. Kyrkan började byggas i slutet av 1100-talet som en köpmanskyrka för de tyska köpmän som under hansatiden hade sitt fäste i Visby. Kyrkan

Background: Cardiovascular autonomic dysfunction is a major complication in a large proportion of patients with long coronavirus disease (LC). As one of the most typical phenotypes of cardiovascular autonomic dysfunction, postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) is commonly observed as a sequelae of coronavirus disease infection. Objective: This study aimed to develop and test a 24-hour el

I denna studie tolkar jag Tvååkers vegetationsutveckling med hjälp av tidigare litteratur publicerad från andra loka-ler i Halland med paleoekologisk data, samt undersökningar på plats genom en borrkärneanalys från en mosse i Tvååkers Naturplats. Syftet med studien är att beskriva hur vegetationen utvecklats på platsen sedan den senaste deglaciationen och även föreslå tidsperioder som skall illust

Denna studie undersöker hur svenska företag i ett tidigt skede tolkar AI Act i relation till GDPR:s princip om dataminimering. Genom en kvalitativ ansats med intervjuer identifieras en utbredd osäkerhet kring tolkningen och implementeringen av AI Act:s krav, särskilt i kombination med GDPR:s etablerade regelverk. AI Act:s riskbaserade struktur ställer nya krav på datastyrning, transparens och dokuThis study explores how Swedish companies, in an early phase, interpret the AI Act in relation to the GDPR’s principle of data minimization. Through a qualitative approach based on interviews, the study identifies widespread uncertainty surrounding the interpretation and implementation of the AI Act’s requirements, particularly in combination with the established framework of the GDPR. The AI Act’

Syftet med denna kandidatuppsats är att undersöka hur mjukvaruutvecklare upplever användningen av Continuous Integration och Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) i praktiken, samt hur dessa metoder påverkar arbetsflödeseffektivitet, kodkvalitet och samarbete utifrån tekniska och organisatoriska faktorer. Studien bygger på sex semistrukturerade intervjuer med utvecklare från olika organisationer och analyse

Migrän är en neurologisk sjukdom som drabbar ungefär 15 procent av världens befolkning och har stor påverkan på individens vardag. Sjukdomen karaktäriseras av attacker som ger kraftig huvudvärk, tillsammans med illamående och känslighet mot ljud och ljus. Även om det är attackerna som kännetecknar migrän, upplever många även symtom, som trötthet och ångest, mellan anfallen. Kvinnor är överrepresenMigraine is a highly debilitating neurological disorder that affects approximately 15% of the global population. It is most commonly associated with severe headaches that can leave sufferers bedridden, but its impact extends beyond the attacks themselves. The disease presents in various forms, ranging from sporadic attacks to regular ones following the female hormone cycle, and chronic migraine, w

The installation of large-scale solar farms is expected to increase in the future as part of a widespread transition from fossil fuel-based energy generation to renewables. By simulating large-scale solar farms in Earth system models (ESMs), previous studies have found that solar farms, at a large enough scale, can globally affect Earth’s climate. This study builds upon previous studies where an E

BACKGROUND: Ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) is the most common intensive care unit-acquired infection, yet its diagnosis is complicated by the lack of reliable diagnostic criteria and validated biomarkers. Due to the compartmentalisation of the immune response, host proteins in respiratory tract samples are more likely than serum proteins to accurately identify VAP. However, a reliable bioma

The climate crisis will continue to threaten coastal cities. The mitigation method of building seawalls along the coast is often seen as an effective remedy for recurring floods. However, this infrastructure can have severe impacts on communities that rely on fishing and aquaculture. There need to be alternatives to the usual urban planning and design methods, which often overlook less fortunate

This thesis studies the flood risks in Yogyakarta City, Indonesia, focusing on the Kali Belik River area, and explores the regulations and design principles aimed at enhancing flood risk reduction and management in the city. The discussion begins at the global level, analysing frameworks such as the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction, and transitions to the local level, assessing the cha

Introduktion: Bedömning av narrativ förmåga ger viktig information om funktionell kommunikation. Ett bedömningsinstrument som kan lämpa sig för äldre barn och kan ge underlag för analys av narrativ mikrostruktur är Expression, Reception and Recall of Narrative Instrument (ERRNI). Studiens syfte var att utforska ERRNI och fyra mikrostrukturella mått i en svensk kontext. Metod: En deskriptiv och korIntroduction: Assessing narratives provides key insights into functional communication. An instrument which is appropriate for older children and can facilitate an analysis of narrative microstructure is Expression, Reception and Recall of Narrative Instrument (ERRNI). The purpose was to explore ERRNI and four microstructural measures in a Swedish context. Method: A descriptive correlational desi

Bakgrund: I Sverige föds vart femte barn med kejsarsnitt, varav majoriteten kvinnor är vakna med regional anestesi. Anestesisjuksköterskan delar omvårdnadsansvaret med barnmorskan. Studier har visat lägre nöjdhet vid kejsarsnitt än vid vaginal förlossning. Syfte: Att undersöka kvinnors upplevelse av den intraoperativa fasen av kejsarsnitt i regional anestesi. Metod: Systematisk litteraturstudi

This article examines the relation between nation and nature in Spain during the Spanish Civil War and post-war years. As in other European cases of fascist and parafascist regimes, the Francoist regime mobilised nature for political and nationalistic goals. Spanish nature embodied the essences of the ‘true Spain’ and was seen as key to the regeneration of the country. The regime assumed an agrari

Compared with work in other European countries, the history of bicycle mobility in Spain is still in its infancy. In pioneering work, some historians have dealt with the nineteenth-century origins of cycling in Spain, particularly its athletic aspects. Other historians have reviewed the main cycling competitions in the country: the Volta a Catalunya, organized in 1911, and the Vuelta a España, beg

The everyday difficulties faced by working-class women, including access to food, are aggravated in critical periods, such as wars and economic crises. However, the Spanish Civil War (1936-1939) was accompanied by a revolution, in the Republican zones, where women opened spaces for their emancipation. By examining social reproduction practices surrounding food in Barcelona during the years 1936-19

This master thesis investigates how a manufacturing company develops and implements packaging solutions for sustainable development, using ASSA ABLOY as a case study. Focusing on the sliding door operator produced at a manufacturing plant in Eastern Europe, the study explores the environmental and economic impacts of packaging throughout its life cycle and the internal packaging innovation process
