Vegetable and/or fruit intakes in association with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) risk have been investigated in case-control studies conducted in specific European countries and cohort studies conducted in Asia, with inconclusive results. No multi-centre European cohort has investigated the indicated associations.
Data on allergic conditions as risk or protective factors for cancer are controversial probably because most studies have used self-reported data on mixed groups of allergies in a case-control setting. We define cancer risks in medically diagnosed hay fever/allergic rhinitis patients in a nationwide cohort study. A total of 138,723 hay fever/allergic rhinitis patients were identified from three Sw
As global populations age at an unprecedented rate, cities are increasingly becoming the primary environments where later life unfolds. This thesis explores how urban design can better respond to the everyday needs of older adults, focusing on the concept of ageing in place - the ability to live independently, safely, and meaningfully within one’s own home and neighborhood. While ageing in place i
Uppsatsens ämne är det utökade skyddet för kända varumärken, syftet med uppsatsen är att beskriva och analysera förutsättningarna och gränserna för det utökade skyddet för kända varumärken inom varumärkeslagen.

Plant-based meat analogs (PBMAs) are defined as foods formulated from plant proteins that imitate meat structure, flavor and physical appearance. In the past decade, the market for PBMA has increased nearly threefold with global retail sales of $6,6 billion in 2024 compared to $2,2 billion in 2015, as part of a broader shift toward a more plant-based diet. However, knowledge of the microbiological
AbstractBackgroundThe increasing prevalence of obesity has led to a rise in bariatric surgery as an effective intervention for weight loss and associated co-morbidities. However, concerns persist regarding increased alcohol consumption after surgery.ObjectivesTo objectively assess long-term changes in alcohol use after bariatric surgery, we used the highly specific alcohol biomarker phosphatidylet
International professional mobility has increased significantly in recent years, yet the workplace integration experiences of self-initiated expatriates remain underexplored in academic literature. While Scandinavian workplaces are characterized by formally inclusive organizational cultures, equitable policies and strong DEI commitments, international professionals sometimes perceive the gap b
Offshore wind farms (OWFs) pose a potential threat to migratory birds, either as a barrier or as a result of lethal collisions. We aimed to demonstrate the temporal and spatial frames for potential mitigation measures for a rare and protected species. We analysed 74 autumn migration tracks for 65 GPS-tagged Caspian terns (Hydroprogne caspia) through an area with operating and planned OWFs. On thei
Objectives: To investigate the relation between adherence to dietary recommendations, the quantified intake of the components of these recommendations, and the risk of developing giant cell arteritis (GCA). Methods: Participants in the Malmö Diet and Cancer Study cohort who subsequently developed GCA were identified through register linkage and validated in a structured review. Four controls, matc
Sustainable startups are recognized as both risky yet important drivers of innovation to societal and environmental challenges, whereas Venture capital (VC) firms play a critical role in enabling growth through financing and active ownership. Although sustainability is becoming a requirement and a driving force for the future, prior literature points to fragmented frameworks and weak risk assessme
