Context: Our aim was to present a summary of the Second International Consultation on Bladder Cancer recommendations on the diagnosis and treatment options for non-muscle-invasive urothelial cancer of the bladder (NMIBC) using an evidence-based approach. Objective: To critically review the recent data on the management of NMIBC to arrive at a general consensus. Evidence acquisition: A detailed Med
Work in rodents has demonstrated that progenitor transplantation can achieve limited photoreceptor replacement in the mammalian retina; however, replication of these findings on a clinically relevant scale requires a large animal model. To evaluate the ability of porcine retinal progenitor cells to survival as allografts and integrate into the host retinal architecture, we isolated donor cells fro
In plant respiratory chains, alternative pathways for NAD(P)H oxidation are mediated by type II NAD(P)H dehydrogenases belonging to the NDA, NDB, and NDC families. For the latter type, Arabidopsis thaliana contains a single gene, NDC1, whose functional role has not previously been analyzed in the plant. We found that A. thaliana NDC1 is alternatively spliced. Four base pairs at the 3' end of intro
In the present study, the electrocatalytic oxidation of reduced beta nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) was investigated using a pencil graphite electrode modified with quercetin (PGE/QH(2)). The PGE/QH(2) was prepared through two steps: (i) the pre-treatment of PGE at 1.40V vs. Ag vertical bar AgCl vertical bar KCl(sat.) in pH 7.0 phosphate buffer containing 0.1 M KCl for 60 s and (ii) adso
This study addresses development of a content-valid cross-Nordic version of the Housing Enabler and investigation of its inter-rater reliability when used in occupational therapy rating situations, involving occupational therapists, clients, and their home environments. The instrument was translated from the original Swedish version of the Housing Enabler, and adapted according to accessibility no
Popular Abstract in Swedish Jordens totala energiförbrukning stiger. Samtidigt förbrukas primärt fossila naturresurser som kan anses ändliga, så som olja, kol eller naturgas, för att tillgodose energibehovet. Även andra energikällor används, t.ex. kärnbränsle, vind och vatten. Denna avhandling fokuserar på energi som omvandlas vid förbränning av gas i gasturbiner. Eftersom naturgas är ett fossilt In this thesis, the effect of alternative gaseous fuels, with high hydrogen content and lower calorific value, on gas turbine combustion was investigated experimentally. The aim of the investigation was to find operational limitations for an experimental burner and to supply data for validation of computational fluid dynamics (CFD). Before examination of the actual burner, the laminar flame speed
Idag används intelligenstester frekvent i rekryteringssammanhang och då dessa tester har visat sig vara en stark prediktor för framtida arbetsinsats läggs vikt vid dessa när det kommer till olika urvalsprocesser. Av den anledningen är det inte ovanligt att arbetssökande får genomföra ett intelligenstest vid flera tillfällen i sin karriär vilket kan leda till olika resultat vid olika tillfällen. StIntelligence tests are frequently used in recruitment contexts since these tests have shown to be a strong predictor when it comes to future work performance. Therefore, it is not uncommon for job seekers to take these tests on several occasions throughout their careers with scores fluctuating to some degree. The aim of the study was to investigate whether there is an improvement in the performanc
The analysis of glacier mass changes in northern Sweden from 2003 to 2023 employed the non-repeat observation method, utilizing data from altimetry data ICESat and ICESat-2, along with Swedish national DEM and RGI v7.0 glacier boundary. The total volume decreased by -2.78 ± 0.58 km³, corresponding to a total mass loss of 10.41 ± 6.60 m w.e. over the past two decades. These changes contribute appro
Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to investigate the concepts of brand integrity, brand reputation, brand crisis management and communication strategies used by brands to combat the cancel culture setting. This exploratory study may also aid marketing practitioners in developing appropriate crisis management strategies in response to such a crisis. Research Question: what is the relationship b
The aggregation propensity of four GnRH analogues, namely D-Phe6-GnRH, ozarelix, cetrorelix and degarelix has been studied with 1H NMR spectroscopy in 100 % H2O, while tracking changes in pH. A method was developed to study aggregation propensities by variations in absolute integral values over time and with concentration. The method provided an intuitive visual comparison of the aggregation prope
This bachelor’s thesis explores the ethical challenges associated with the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in municipal social services in the Skåne region of Sweden. As AI technologies are increasingly adopted to improve efficiency and support decision-making, it is important to understand how ethical principles are upheld in practice. The study aimed to identify these challenges and examine
The aim of this thesis is to explore how contextual factors shape experiences of work-related precariousness in a sparsely populated municipality in northern Sweden. In the thesis, the concept of precariousness is operationalized as relating to three dimensions: income, employment stability and employability, and access to social security. These dimensions are explored qualitatively through semi-s

More often than not one would encounter a problem, know that the solution has to meet some requirements, but do not how to start or how to progress towards solving it. Motivation for a computer that can solve the problem automatically without explicitly programming it is apparent, i.e. a computer that \programs itself", is greatly desired. The method of genetic programming has demonstrated it
Video content is the dominant traffic type on mobile networks today and this portion is only expected to increase in the future. In this thesis we investigate ways of reducing bit rates for adaptive streaming applications in the latest video coding standard, H.265 / High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC). The current models for offering different-resolution versions of video content in a dynamic way
När ett samboförhållande upphör genom den ena sambons död har den efterlevande sambon oftast ett lagstadgat ekonomiskt skydd. Detta gäller i samtliga skandinaviska länder. Uppsatsen syftar till att jämföra efterlevandeskyddet för sambor i Sverige, Norge och Danmark, eftersom skyddet i dessa länder skiljer sig åt. I Sverige har efterlevande sambor rätt att begära bodelning. Sambor med gemensamma bWhen cohabitation ceases by the death of one of the cohabitants, the surviving cohabitant usually has a statutory right to some financial protection. This applies to all Scandinavian countries. The purpose of this thesis is to compare the financial protection that surviving cohabitants have in Sweden, Norway and Denmark, since the protection in these countries differs. In Sweden, a cohabitant who
Researchers argue that micromanaging behaviour has now become a common trait of management and been perceived as negative. Furthermore, there is little research on the technical perspective of micromanagement and why and how it occurs in an engineering environment. While each research covers only a few segments of the origin, symptoms and reasons of micromanagement, our thesis tries to consolidate
The aim of this study is to investigate opportunities and obstacles for a small municipality (Perstorp) to replace a municipal car with an electric car. In the study environmental aspects such as greenhouse gases and energy efficiency are compared between a conventional car and an electric car. Furthermore, different kinds of charging stations are reviewed with the aim to find a suitable station f
The M&A activity among companies worldwide increases every year, at the same time as much as 70 % of all M&A’s are being reviewed as failures. M&A’s are a fast mean of positioning for a company, which makes the strategy increasingly relevant for high-tech companies since the high tech industry can change in both quick and disruptive ways. This study aims to explore the most common moti
