Lean has become a popular organization model during the late 21st century, and it is widely spread through healthcare with high expectations of improvement and reorganization. The implementation of a certain policy is in the literature seen as a crucial step in policy realization. To better understand Lean and its adaptation to healthcare, this study examines how Lean is being implemented into Swe

The purpose of this thesis is to identify the problems and challenges that the County Administrative Boards (CAB) perceive when conducting risk- and vulnerability assessments (RVA) and to identify which problems and challenges the new structural reform can cause. Two methods have been utilized – a literature study, and an interview study involving a total of 11 CABs. The thesis shows that implemen

Artificial intelligence is breaking new grounds each year and one of the most promising and extensively researched area of study in the field is the artificial neural networks. In this project, artificial neural networks are designed to help medical staff in estimating at an early stage what risk a patient has of developing serious postoperative complications after having undergone an oesophageal

The intensifying global race for talent increases the need of efficient policies and tools aimed at attracting and retaining highly-skilled individuals from around the world. For this purpose, a large strand of literature started examining the determinants of skilled immigration. However, little attention has been paid to the case of international students, which represent a special sub-group of h

The number of fractures is increasing worldwide, and fractures frequently cause long-term disability, impaired quality of life and sometimes death. The Malmö Preventive Project, a population-based, prospective study, consisting of 22 444 men, mean age 44 and 10 902 women, mean age 50 years, provides data for evaluation of common public health conditions, such as fracture and diabetes. The follow-u

Several studies have reported that bone marrow (BM)-derived stem cells have the capacity to give rise to cells of different type of tissue; an ability termed stem cell plasticity or transdifferentiation. Controversies exist as to how frequent this phenomenon is, or if it may be explained by alternative mechanisms. Here we have used different mouse models to study the potential plasticity of BM-der

The so-called Chilean economic miracle during the 1980s and 1990s connotes not only high-speed economic growth but also a profound structural transformation of the Chilean economy. Most previous research ascribes growth and transformation to the liberalisation of markets and other neo-liberal policy instruments introduced after 1974. Policies, before as well as after 1974, have indeed been importa

This thesis is based on five papers (A-E), all treating various applications of Rice's formula. The areas of application are oceanographic and environmental problems. The first three papers treat properties of encountering waves, that is, waves that a ship encounters while sailing on the ocean. Paper A addresses the problem of computing the intensity of such waves and, in particular, the intensit

This dissertation consists of a primary and a secondary study. The aim of the primary study is to follow-up a group of juveniles diagnosed with conduct disorder (n=351) into adulthood. The secondary study's aim is to question, clarify and attach the questionnaire SOC-29 to the salutogenic theory.In the dissertation different outcomes and outcome measurements are fomulated and discussed. Two perspe

The assessment of ischemic heart disease (IHD) often focuses on the detection of dysfunctional but viable myocardium which may improve in function following revascularization. Dysfunctional but viable myocardium is identified by distinct characteristics with regards to function, perfusion and viability. Therefore, in Paper I we developed a method for quantitative polar representation of left ventr
