Relocation to residential care facilities is a unique type of transition. For most older people it is the lastmove they make in their life when they have no other options. The transition itself involves numerouschallenges. There is a lot of knowledge about the situations before and after relocating to a nursing home,but few studies are based on the actual relocation process.

I en svår tid kan ett enkelt digitalt upplägg innebära både glädje och lättnad för många människor. Det skriver forskarna Tove Harnett, Sofi Fristedt och Håkan Jönson tillsammans med Eva Wiman, anhörigrådgivare och verksamhetsansvarig vid Malmö anhörigförening.

A decarbonized agri-food sector may provide consumers with nutritious, secure, and reasonably priced food with a lower carbon impact. Decarbonizing the agri-food sector is intricate and necessitates a holistic strategy. Technological advancements, like Information and Communication Technologies (ICT), might be the solution. This study analyses the critical success factors (CSFs) for ICT integratio

The adoption of Digital Human Resource Management (DHRM) is increasing exponentially in the present market landscape; organizations are curious to digitalize human resource practices and enhance organizational performance. The purpose of the presented research is to assess various factors impacting DHRM adoption. The presented study is grounded in social exchange theory and dynamic capability theo

The theoretical foundation of inflation targeting was laid out by the Swedish economist Knut Wicksell (1851–1926) in his groundbreaking treatise, Interest and Prices, published originally in German in 1898. Here he proposed price stability as the rule for monetary policy. Today, inflation targeting is considered the best-practice approach to monetary policy across the world. It has contributed to

AimTo fully take advantage of blood test results, comparative data are required. Today, the reference interval is a commonly used concept. This review aims to summarise the current state of reference intervals, focusing on infants.MethodsLiterature on reference percentiles (birth to 12 months of age) published from January 1950 until November 2024 was reviewed. Search terms comprised paediatric, i

Robust and rapid xylose utilization is essential for developing sustainable bioprocesses capable of converting pentose-rich lignocellulosic biomass into renewable chemicals. Saccharomyces cerevisiae is a popular choice for industrial bioprocesses due to its high product yields, robust performance, and stress tolerance. Unfortunately, S. cerevisiae does not natively utilize xylose. Decades of resea

This dissertation explores the socioeconomic impacts of mine closures in Canada, focusing on the vulnerabilities that arise within local economies and the political economy implications of industrial changes. Through a combination of historical, quantitative, and qualitative analyses, the research provides a comprehensive understanding of the effects of mine closures on employment, municipal finan

The breakdown of relations between China and the US has prompted Beijing to shore up existing friendships, and seek new ones.

Roughness is a perceptual characteristic of sound that was first applied to musical consonance and dissonance, but it is increasingly recognized as a central aspect of voice quality in human and animal communication. It may be particularly important for asserting social dominance or attracting attention in urgent signals such as screams. To ensure that the results of roughness research are valid a

Low vaccination coverage against SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) is a public health concern. The aim of this study was to identify barriers and motivators associated with COVID-19 vaccination and develop a vaccine acceptance scoring system. From the overall population residing in Skåne county Sweden in 2022 (n = 1 384 531), 3600 randomly selected individuals (aged ≥18 years) received a survey. Questions wer

In the plant-based beverage industry, a residue called okara, is generated in large quantities in the liquid-solid separation step. Despite the high nutritional value of okara from soy and oat beverages with respect to fiber and protein content, these residues are generally discarded or used as animal feed or compost. It would be more sustainable to utilize okara for human consumption, however, th

This work addresses the design of multi-agent coordination through high-order consensus protocols. While first-order consensus strategies are well-studied—with known robustness to uncertainties such as time delays, time-varying weights, and nonlinearities like saturations—the theoretical guarantees for high-order consensus are comparatively limited. We propose a compositional control framework tha

This thesis investigates scalable control design for networked dynamical systems, which are of great importance due to their wide range of practical applications, including large-scale formation control. A central challenge in such systems is enabling agents to coordinate effectively based only on local and relative information, particularly as the system size increases. To address this, the thesi

Speckle metrology is a powerful optical sensing tool for non-destructive testing (NDT) and advanced surface characterization, enabling ultra-precise measurements of surface deformations and displacements. These capabilities are critical for material analysis and surface assessment in sensing-driven applications. However, traditional correlation methods often struggle to balance resolution and robu

Background: Respiratory symptoms are common in the general adult population. Increased burden of respiratory symptoms may increase the risk of mortality. We assessed the association between respiratory symptom clusters and mortality. Methods: Participants were derived from two population-based Swedish adult cohorts (N = 63,060). Cluster analysis was performed with Locality Sensitive Hashing (LSH)-
