In late October 2023, the storm Babet struck the southeast coast of Sweden, high waves and extreme water levels caused significant damage to infrastructure. Simrishamn’s central harbour was particularly affected, with waves smashing and destroying the as- phalt on the southern pier. The revetment covering the entire seaward edge of the pier is estimated to tolerate a significant wave height of up
Kiviks reningsverk som ligger på Skånes östkust drabbades av en storm 20:e oktober 2023 som nästan skadade reningsverket. Stormen visade på behovet att förstärka det befintliga kustskyddet för framtida stormar. I denna studie undersöks ifall vegetation kan användas för att skydda reningsverket. Växter som planteras vid kustlinjen kommer att dämpa våghöjden genom den friktionskraft som uppstår mel
Arbetet undersöker vilken roll musik har i att förändra samhället, vad som utmärker musik som påverkar samhället, och på vilket sätt musiken påverkar. Detta görs med hjälp av en historisk grund och genom intervjuer av tre personer som har en inblick i att påverka genom musik. Målet är att arbetet ska ge en inblick i hur man kan påverka genom musik, för att sedan själv kunna börja påverka genom detThe essay examines what role music have in changing society, how music that affects society is different, and in what way the music makes a change. This is done through a historical base and through interviews with three people with an insight into influencing through music. The goal is that the essay will give an insight into how one can influence through music, so that the reader then can start
Purpose: To investigate how the L'Oréal Group manages its multi-brand portfolio within the beauty market, focusing on how they navigate the complexities of brand cannibalization. Methodology: This paper employs a qualitative research method. Empirical data about the case object L'Oréal Group was collected through secondary data from their latest annual report, websites and online sources
BACKGROUND: Several studies have examined the effect of community interventions on youth alcohol consumption, and the results have often been mixed. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a community intervention known as the Öckerö Method on adolescent alcohol consumption and perceived parental attitudes towards adolescent drinking. METHOD: The study is based on a quasi-experim
We report the first observation of a momentum-resolved superconducting gap in the Hg-based trilayer cuprate, which holds the highest record of superconducting transition temperature (T_{c}) at ambient pressure. By angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy utilizing a microfocused beam, clear quasiparticle dispersions originating from the inner and outer CuO_{2} planes (IP and OP, respectively) wer
Transient thermoreflectance (TTR) technique is employed to study the thermal conductivity of β-Ga2O3 and high Al-content AlxGa1-xN semiconductors, which are very promising materials for high-power device applications. The experimental data are analyzed with the Callaway's model taking into account all relevant phonon scattering processes. Our results show that out-of-plane thermal conductivity of
Background: The Autism- Tics, ADHD and other Comorbidities inventory (A-TAC) has been validated in epidemiological data. However, validation against clinical diagnostic assessments in a population-based sample has been lacking, limiting the implications for clinical practice, clinical research and public health decisions. Methods: Study participants were recruited from the longitudinal Child and A
Objectives To investigate sex education in Swedish schools regarding content, satisfaction, and suggested improvements, as described by teenagers and young adults. Methods Waiting-room survey conducted among 225 female patients (aged 13-25) at youth and student health clinics in one large-, and one medium-sized Swedish city. Results Most participants (97%, n=218) had received sex education in scho
Aqueous redox flow batteries (RFBs) as grid-scale energy storage devices hold great potential to accomodate the rising demand for intermittent renewable energy sources. A significant parameter that enhances the sustainability of RFBs is selecting the appropriate redox species. In this study, we investigated the application of lignosulfonate as a redox species for the negolyte of aqueous RFBs becau
Stable carbon isotope curves derived from Lower Triassic carbonate rocks from three Iranian sections are established to investigate changes in the carbon cycle during the Early Triassic in this area. The sections are located in the south-center (Abadeh), north (Amol), and northwest (Zal) of Iran. All three curves show a similar pattern starting out with high δ13C values in the uppermost Permian de
Objective: Ampullary neoplastic lesions can be resected by endoscopic papillectomy (EP) or transduodenal surgical ampullectomy (TSA) while pancreaticoduodenectomy is reserved for more advanced lesions. We present the largest retrospective comparative study analysing EP and TSA. Design: Of all patients in the database, lesions with prior interventions, benign histology advanced malignancy (T2 and m
Tax incentives can be a policy instrument to fund the arts and culture. Such incentives must meet certain rules and principles, including, for EU Member States, EU requirements. In addition, various other aspects must be taken into account in the appreciation of tax incentives as a cultural funding instrument. This includes, on the one hand, notions of fairness, concerns about ‘philanthrocapitalis
The first edition of the comprehensive diachronic-contemporary Swedish Academy Dictionary (SAOB) was completed in 2023 after more than 130 years of work. In 2024, a revision project was initiated with the aim of creating a more balanced dictionary by modernizing the content and addressing the major shortcomings. Tis paper discusses the revision process and the challenges encountered along the way,
Post-extrusion flow dynamics of soft matter are governed by their elasto-viscoplastic (EVP) rheological properties, which influence filament stability, die swelling, and shape fidelity in extrusion-based 3D printing. Achieving precision and control in printed structures requires optimizing yield stress, viscoelasticity, and extrusion pressure to minimize excessive die swelling and material spreadi
Oligometastatic squamous-cell carcinoma of the anus (omSCCA) is a very rare condition. The literature is sparse, and treatment guidelines are lacking. The aim of the present work was to carry out a literature review and to propose an algorithm for intensified treatment of patients with omSCCA. A PubMed search was carried out, which resulted in 15 relevant publications that included any type of def
Background Labels for neck pain after a motor vehicle crash (MVC) influenced recovery expectations and management preferences. Research is needed to understand why these expectations and preferences varied based on the label given. Aim To explore how people perceive different labels for neck pain after an MVC. Methods We performed a content analysis of qualitative data from a randomised controlled
Following regulatory approval of anti-amyloid beta (Aβ) therapies, a better characterization of patients receiving these treatments is needed to guide clinical management and inclusion in future trials. This Alzheimer's Association-convened workgroup proposes a terminology, treatment-related amyloid clearance (TRAC), to reflect alterations in disease pathophysiology based on biomarker evidence for
Background: Air pollution is a known risk factor for chronic respiratory diseases, including asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). However, evidence regarding the role of black carbon (BC) remains mixed and sparse. This study aimed to examine the association of long-term exposure to air pollution, focusing on BC, with incident asthma and COPD in adults. Method: We followed 28,73
