The Resonance of Past-themed Consumption and Marketing

In this thesis, I explore and conceptualise how resonance can be market-mediated. To do this, I unravel the theoretical context of past-themed consumption and marketing. My exploration is based on five standalone papers that all investigate past-themed consumption and marketing. Two of these papers are empirical and employ the context of the Danish vintage cycling community. Three papers are conce

Utveckling av metodik för värdering av risk i arbetet med kommunala handlingsprogram enligt Lagen om skydd mot olyckor

Enligt Lagen om skydd mot olyckor (LSO) skall kommunerna beskriva sin riskbild som en del av deras arbete med att utveckla handlingsprogram för olycksförebyggande verksamhet och räddningstjänst. Denna rapport är resultatet av ett uppdrag som utförts av Avdelningen för riskhantering och samhällssäkerhet på uppdrag av Myndigheten för samhällsskydd och beredskap med syftet att föreslå hur man kan utv

Profiling Attitudes Toward Individuals Who Self-Harm Among Mental Health Workers in Sweden : A Cross-Sectional Study

INTRODUCTION: Mental health workers' attitudes toward individuals who self-harm impact accessibility and quality of care. Previous studies have established the role of training on professionals' attitudes, with mixed findings for gender and work experience. While self-report attitudinal scales are frequently used, latent response trends across such scales are seldom considered. The present study e

Brief Admission by Self-Referral : A 4-Year Follow-Up on Utilisation Patterns and Experiences

Brief Admission by self-referral (BA) is a crisis intervention for individuals with recurrent self-harm and suicidal ideation. While short-term effects are documented, long-term utilisation patterns remain unclear. This study examines BA usage over 4 years, identifies distinct utilisation profiles, and qualitatively explores participants' experiences with BA over time. Participants were 62 individ

Rethinking FIB-4: The hidden zonal bias in alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency

Noninvasive fibrosis scores, particularly Fibrosis-4 (FIB-4), are widely used in hepatology due to their accessibility and simplicity.1 The FIB-4 index combines age, AST, platelet count, and ALT into a formula validated primarily in hepatitis C and metabolic dysfunction–associated steatotic liver disease, which typically cause zone III (centrilobular) hepatocyte injury and transaminase elevation.1

Effects of rotigotine on sleep in Parkinson’s disease patients: a Parkinson’s KinetiGraph study

Method: Thirty-two PD patients with sleep disturbances (Clinical Global Impression-Severity (CGI-S) ≥ 3) were included in this observational study. Before start of treatment and during stable dose with rotigotine patients were assessed with Parkinson’s disease sleep scale 2 (PDSS-2), Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS), Parkinson’s disease quality of life questionnaire (PDQ-8), European Quality of life

System-level brain modeling

System-level brain modeling is a powerful method for building computational models of the brain and allows biologically motivated models to produce measurable behavior that can be tested against empirical data. System-level brain models occupy an intermediate position between detailed neuronal circuit models and abstract cognitive models. They are distinguished by their structural and functional r

Eco-friendly insect control in crop production

Insect pest control, which is essential for food and crop production, typically relies on chemical insecticides. At Yngvi Bio, we repurpose bacterial contractile injection systems as biodegradable insecticides, offering ecological safety, target specificity and a scalable path to market.

Ultrasound-assisted regeneration of ion exchange resins for efficient detoxification of lignocellulosic hydrolysate in biorefinery

Resin adsorption is an effective technology for the fermentable sugar slurry detoxification in lignocellulosic biorefinery, but with the great limitation of the loss of resin capacity from inhibitor contamination and the extensive use of acid and base solutions for their regeneration. In this study, we developed a green and practical method with ultrasound assisting the depletion of poisoned resin

Nematode mind : exploring the role of the RNA interference pathway in learning, memory and beyond

Caenorhabditis nematodes, particularly the well-known Caenorhabditis elegans, have challenged early views of them as hard-wired by demonstrating diverse learning and memory capabilities. This cognitive repertoire, developed with just several hundred neurons, highlights the evolutionary importance of cognitive traits. In this study, we examine the relationship between learning, development, reprodu

Circulating protein biomarkers and their association with vulnerable plaque characteristics – a PROSPECT II substudy

Background: In the PROSPECT-II study, near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) and intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) was used to characterize atherosclerotic plaques in the coronary arteries. NIRS-derived lipid core burden index (LCBI) and IVUS-derived plaque burden (PB) were able to identify plaques strongly associated with adverse cardiovascular events. Aim: Our aim was to identify biomarkers associated

Statistical volume element generation for paperboard based on X-ray computer tomography images

The macroscopic response governed by a statistical volume element, generated from 3D X-ray computer tomography images of paperboard, is explored. The statistical volume element, which consists of fibres and void, is derived from X-ray computer tomography images. Two filters for computing intensity fields and intensity gradients have been implemented and compared. Using an intensity threshold, the

Endothelial Glycocalyx Turnover in Vascular Health and Disease : Rethinking Endothelial Dysfunction

The endothelial glycocalyx, a glycan-rich layer on the luminal surface of endothelial cells lining blood and lymphatic vessels, plays a crucial role in vascular homeostasis by regulating vascular permeability, immune cell trafficking, and vascular tone. Dysregulated endothelial glycocalyx turnover—whether through altered synthesis, intracellular degradation, or shedding—contributes to endothelial

Proteomic analysis of serum samples after cardiac arrest : Rationale and design of a TTM-trial substudy

Background: A pilot study investigating proteomic profiles from 78 patients from the Target Temperature Management after Out-of-hospital Cardiac arrest (TTM) trial revealed 35 proteins associated to functional outcome, and six proteins associated to targeted temperature management at 33 °C. We present the protocol for a study investigating proteomic profiles in the full cohort of the TTM-trial bio

RIESZ ENERGIES AND THE MAGNITUDE OF MANIFOLDS

We study the geometric significance of Leinster’s magnitude invariant. For closed manifolds we find a precise relation with Brylinski’s beta function and therefore with classical invariants of knots and submanifolds. In the special case of compact homogeneous spaces we obtain an elementary proof that the residues of the beta function contain the same geometric information as the asymptotic expansi
