Sepsis is a life threatening condition where the body’s reaction to an infection results in a dysregulated immune response - ultimately causing damage to tissues and organs. The syndrome is diverse, both in underlying biology, disease manifestation and severity, and is therefore divided into endotypes and further into subphenotypes. Further understanding of the biological pathways of the various sUtilizing machine learning to understand sepsis Sepsis is one of the deadliest syndromes in modern time, with little to no effective therapies available. In this project, machine learning was utilized to gain insight into the underlying biology of sepsis - a necessary step in finding novel and effective treatments and diagnostic tools. Sepsis is a syndrome (collection of symptoms) which is respon

This paper presents the outcomes of an applied cultural study carried out during spring semester 2010 with more than 10 Chinese female postgraduate students in Swedish universities. The aims of this research were to investigate Chinese female postgraduates’ decision-making process, to understand university lives in Sweden with the main focus on their learning experiences and social activities, and

The aim of this essay was to look into the youth political organizations view of possibilities and difficulties of the Swedish politics of narcotic, regarding the law of the criminalization of using narcotics. The questions of the study were: What possibilities and difficulties did the youth political organizations find regarding the law of the criminalization of using narcotics? What did the yout

With an increasing amount of literature on the convergence of archives and libraries as a point of departure, this thesis examines how archives and libraries respectively assign metadata to informational resources with queer content. Thereby, the thesis contribute to a theoretical convergence between the two institutions. A mixed method approach with quantitative and qualitative methods was chos

Air pollution is a serious problem today, both from an environmental and from a health point of view. Especially in cities, particles smaller than 10 µm in aerodynamic diameter (PM10) can reach high concentrations. These particles are dangerous, even at low concentrations, since they are small enough to enter the lungs. In order to estimate the concentration of air pollutants, different measureme

This article examines the economic incentives for Europeans to migrate to the so-called 'white man's grave' of West Africa. Ignorance and coercion have been proposed as explanations for migration to high mortality areas. We use data on the Royal African Company and their European employees on the Gold Coast during the period 1707-1740. We found that the employees received a premium above the wage

This thesis is based on nine papers, all concerned with parameter estimation. The thesis aims at solving problems related to real-world applications such as spectroscopy, DNA sequencing, and audio processing, using sparse modeling heuristics. For the problems considered in this thesis, one is not only concerned with finding the parameters in the signal model, but also to determine the number of si

Almost half of all divorced Swedes today are aged 60+ and many of them are, or have been, a part of a reconstituted family (Bildtgård & Öberg 2014). This means that the probability of having step-grandchildren increases in a life cycle perspective. For those who have never had neither children nor stepchildren, a sibling's or a friend's grandchild can have the same meaning as a step-grandchildAlmost half of all divorced Swedes today are aged 60+ and many of them are, or have been, a part of a reconstituted family (Bildtgård & Öberg 2014).

While research indicates that indoor lighting, exposure to daylight, physical activity, and sleep interact to influence functioning, mood, and daily rhythm, strategies are needed to support behavioral changes among older adults who often spend more time at home after retirement. The objective was to design a web-based course to encourage behavior change related to light, activity, and sleep.

Petrostates face an unprecedented crisis as oil and gas revenues, on which their economies and states are built upon, are set to diminish rapidly the coming 20 years. The decline in revenues is an effect of the adopted climate policies in the major oil consuming countries that, together with a strong development of renewable energy, reduces the future demand for oil and gas. The challenges that th

This paper explores the relationship between democratization and economic redistribution using case study analysis applied to Sweden and Brazil. We find that democratization is intimately connected to redistribution through the welfare state, but as an event in itself is neither a necessary nor a sufficient cause of redistributive reforms.

By selecting three municipalities at varying stages of digitalization, the study highlights differences in the descriptions of the relationship between social workers and clients, shedding light on whether, and if so, how, digital tools influence this relationship.

Argonauts of industry: Knowledge gathering and technologies in use in Sweden’s industrial breakthroughIn this article we explore how knowledge transfer about industrial production and new technologies affected Sweden’s rapid industrialisation in the second half of the nineteenth century. Focusing on two case studies taken from the Swedish glass and gunpowder industries, we argue for the importanceArgonauts of industry: Knowledge gathering and technologies in use in Sweden’s industrial breakthroughIn this article we explore how knowledge transfer about industrial production and new technologies affected Sweden’s rapid industrialisation in the second half of the nineteenth century.

BackgroundChronic pain is a highly prevalent disease, leading to high health care costs, impaired productivity, and decreased quality of life. An artificial intelligence (AI)-powered, digital tool for self-management (PaindrainerTM) has been shown to be an effective treatment in chronic pain and may have potential to reduce the burden on costs and quality of life.ObjectiveThe objective of this stu
