Background and aim: To date, few studies have focused on the health effects of pesticide exposure among avocado farmworkers. We examined the association of exposure to insecticides, fungicides, and herbicides with cognitive and mental health outcomes among these avocado workers from Michoacan, Mexico. Materials and methods: We conducted a cross-sectional study of 105 avocado farmworkers between Ma
Motivation: Large-scale phylogenetic analyses rely on orthology inference to curate sets of sequences related by speciation rather than gene duplication. Graph-based ‘orthology’ inference approaches cluster sequences together based on an all-versus-all BLAST, followed by filtering by hit fraction, Markov clustering, or both, but the output of such approaches often contains paralogous sequences. Tr
Sustainable development requires a change of values, norms, and capabilities within individuals and societies, and education is a crucial means to achieve these goals. However, transformation is not a simple task as dominant structures due to path-dependency and lock-in processes resist change, put pressure on innovative approaches, and hinder their potential for change. Thus the question is how s
Vi har undersökt om det fanns några skillnader mellan vuxna, internationellt adopterades psykiska välbefinnande hos två grupper individer, antingen med tidig (ett år eller yngre) eller med sen (fyra år eller äldre) ankomstålder. Dessutom undersökte vi om det fanns några skillnader mellan gruppernas kunskap, minnen och föreställningar om bakgrunden. Individer med olika mycket kunskap, minnen och fö
Antennas are fundamental components in the evolution of wireless communication systems, including current 5G networks and emerging 6G technologies. This thesis presents the design, simulation, and experimental validation of two antennas specifically developed for integration into repeater-assisted MIMO (Multiple Input Multiple Output) systems. These systems aim to enhance spatial multiplexing and
This thesis explores the migration experiences of privileged American women who have relocated to Spain, not as economic refugees or global elites, but as people navigating complex landscapes of physical, emotional, and existential insecurity. Drawing on feminist ethnography, emotional geographies, and theories of postnational belonging, the project analyzes how gender, autonomy, care, and politic
The thesis argues that the crisis communication framework used by Boeing in the Boeing 737 MAX crisis has limitations. Because the platform public is no longer just passive recipients of crisis information, and regulatory agencies in other countries are not just backgrounds in crisis contexts. In transnational crises, the definition of safety is not determined by a single entity, but rather a proc
Optical DNA mapping offers an alternative or complementary method of sequencing and identification to the widely used next generation sequencing techniques. However, the rich selection of computational tools found for standard nucleotide sequencing are not as mature for DNA optical maps. This thesis focuses on two tools for the analysis of densely labeled optical maps. Firstly, parameters for an e
When a stroke patient visits a physiotherapist for rehabilitation, various tests are often conducted. The results from these tests need to be stored somewhere, and currently, there is no efficient method for doing so. The best available option is an Excel spreadsheet that calculates the results, followed by the physiotherapist having to save the data in another way. This process is time-consuming,
Utgångspunkt för denna kandidatuppsats i sociologi har varit att undersöka om det risktänkande som beskrivs av Ulrich Becks i hans teori om risksamhället kan urskiljas hos personer som har generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) översatt till svenska med generaliserat ångestsyndrom. Studien har utförts med en kvalitativ ansats i form av delvis strukturerade intervjuer som har genomförts med fyra män i
In this work we aim to implement a software package to detect and categorize dark data, data not accessible or not known by the user, generated in the simulations of the Light Dark Matter eXperiment (LDMX). This will involve studying current existing solutions for such problems, attempting to implement them for the Lightweight Distributed Computing System (LDCS), and developing our own Dark Data S
