Kroniska sår är sår som inte lyckas att läka över en lång tidsperiod. De karaktäriseras av kolonisering av bakterier vilka bildar en så kallad biofilm som ger upphov till ökat motstånd mot behandling. De behandlingsmetoder som finns idag mot kroniska sår är inte fulländade, då stor risk för resistens finns samt att de inte kan förstöra biofilmen. Idag är över 40 miljoner människor drabbade av kronChronic wounds are an emerging healthcare issue and current methods of healing chronic wounds address bacteria but are ineffective against resistant bacteria and the biofilm formation commonly observed in these wounds. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) derived from the endogenous wound healing system have been shown to combat bacterial infections, exhibit immunomodulatory effects, as well as improvi

The following research paper examines the impact of varying environmental regulation stringency on the landscape of green technological innovation in the maritime industry from 2006-2020. Additionally, the paper explores the potential indirect effect of these innovations, induced by stringency levels, on industry competitiveness. The research is grounded in a theoretical framework primarily drawin

Syfte & mål: Studiens syfte är att undersöka vilka utmaningar byggsektorn står inför nu när klimatdeklaration blivit lag. Hur stor omställning har klimatdeklarationen orsakat byggsektorn och vad krävs av de arbetsroller som är involverade i framställningen av en klimatdeklaration. Vilka incitament har byggherren vid dagsläget att bygga klimatsmart utan gränsvärden från lagkravet. ProblemstäAim & goal: The purpose of the study is to investigate what challenges the construction sector is facing now that the climate declaration has become law. How much change has the climate declaration caused the construction sector and what is required of the work roles involved in the production of a climate declaration. What incentives does the developer currently have to build climate-smart wi

In our research paper, we shed light on the various impacts of acculturation and changes in religious consumption in the lives of muslims, who have migrated from the east and are experiencing life in the west. We took into consideration the holy month Ramadan as a religious reference to our study where we examine muslims religious performance during this time. As Ramadan is considered the most spi

The objective of this project was to design a casual dinner chair for smaller cafes and restaurants that prioritize locally produced ingredients and want to reflect that in their interior design. The aim was to use locally sourced materials from southern Sweden, integrate design and construction to simplify the manufacturing process, and reduce material waste. Additionally, the distribution of the

Bakgrund: Barn ska få vara delaktiga och få anpassat stöd för att uttrycka sig i sin intervention. Barn med autismspektrumdiagnos (ASD) har ofta en annorlunda sensorisk process, vilket kan påverka delaktighet i aktiviteter. Det saknas information kring hur arbetsterapeuter samkonstruerar med barnet som klient i interventioner. Syfte: Att undersöka hur arbetsterapeuters samkonstruktion sker med barBackground: Children must receive tailored support to participate and express themselves in their care. Children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) commonly have a different sensory process, which can affect participation in activities. There is a lack of information regarding how occupational therapists collaborate with children as clients in interventions. Purpose: To investigate how occupation

Title: Should we do it ourselves or should we let somebody else do it? An exploratory study of in-house agencies and external agencies in marketing and brand management Course: BUSN39 - Degree project in Global Marketing Authors: Nicholas-Joel Kisling & Julia Herma Cornée Dorothée Bosveld Keywords: In-House Agency, Make-or-Buy, Insourcing, Outsourcing, External Agencies, Marketing, Brand Ma

Entrepreneurs face challenging work-related stressors inherent to their occupation. Prolonged exposure to such stressors can have negative consequences on well-being and job satisfaction, which highlights the need for recovery from work-related stressors. This thesis focuses on psychological detachment (PD) as an impactful recovery process. Due to the characteristics of the entrepreneurial profess

Freshwater systems are active components of the global carbon cycle and contribute to global CO2 emissions. Freshwater studies in the Arctic are underrepresented, especially regarding lakes and their Dissolved Organic Carbon (DOC) reactivity and composition dynamics. DOC is a main part of DOM (dissolved organic matter), which drives processes central to carbon cycling, influences chemical and biol

Syfte: Syftet med denna kvantitativa studie är att förstå sambandet mellan hur synen på precisionsmarknadsföring påverkas av dess datainhämtning. Vidare vill studien undersöka hur inställningen till precisionsmarknadsföring påverkar varumärkesattityd och köpbeteende hos konsumenten. Metod: Uppsatsen är en kvantitativ tvärsnittsstudie med deduktiv ansats som nyttjar en enkät som empiri. Enkäten de

Purpose: The thesis aims to address the different roles incumbent firms can take in the emerging plant-based ecosystem and to contribute with new understandings related to these ecosystems. Theoretical framework: The theoretical foundation for the thesis is rooted in theories on systems thinking, ecosystems and with a discussion around the roles that are inherent in ecosystems. This is accompanie

Time-resolved x-ray tomography enables us to dynamically and non-destructively study the interior of a specimen. The obtainable temporal resolution is limited by the x-ray flux and the desired spatial resolution. To allow faster acquisition speeds, we explore a deep-learning approach that applies super-resolution and image denoising to fast time-resolved tomograms. The domain translation algorithm

Effectively utilizing Big Data can be a challenge for many companies. Due to its volume, many aspects of the data processing pipeline such as storage, retrieval and usage may quickly become problematic. For example, it could be difficult identifying the relevant metrics when analyzing a service failure. Visualizing and deriving insights from the data could also prove to be quite onerous. Immersive

Numerous African governments are actively implementing diverse strategies to attract increased foreign direct investments (FDI) to bolster their economies. However, there remains an ongoing debate regarding the impact of FDI on economic development, particularly concerning healthcare. Furthermore, there is a notable lack of understanding regarding the influence of Chinese FDI on the African health

Forecasting wind has always been an interesting subject, and as large parts of the world are relying more on wind for power production it is becoming even more important to have reliable forecasts. Probabilistic forecasts, where distributions are predicted in contrast to deterministic forecasts, are impor- tant for informed decision making. We apply two methods based on conformal prediction for pr

Online shopping is gradually becoming a daily behavior in people's lives, and advertising marketing methods based on short videos are also playing an increasingly important role in this trend. Different from pictures and texts, it combines sound and picture, is easy to spread, and contains a lot of information, which conforms to people's habit of using fragmented information. In this case,

This thesis engages with Western European funding for queer movements in Georgia by asking how these donors affect the local movements, transnational politics and the power dynamics in Georgia. It pursues these inquiries by analysing the Western European understanding of queer activism and how donors support queer movements in Georgia; and the Georgian activists perceptions and suggestions for imp

PV system components that are exposed to unmanageable strain can be overheated, which subsequently results in a fire ignition. Common failure factors are poor component quality, mechanical exposure due to natural phenomena and poor craftmanship. The underlying problem is that PV regulations are lacking in quality or are non-existent. The rapid expansion of roof mounted PV system installation on co

This thesis examines the impact of macroeconomic shocks on adolescents health, specifically those aged between 14 and 18 years. Using data from the Youth Risk Behavior Surveillance System (YRBSS) covering U.S. states from 1999 to 2019, this study investigates various health outcomes and behavioural variables among high-school students. A two-way fixed effects model, that accounts for state- and ye
