Polymer-based organic mixed ion-electron conductors (OMIECs) are a class of materials offering unique coupled dual charge transport characteristics along with appealing properties including mechanical softness, biocompatibility, tunability, volumetric capacitance, and stability. These features have been exploited in devices including organic electrochemical transistors (OECTs), neuromorphic comput
BACKGROUND: Diagnosing heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) remains challenging, particularly in older adults. While the Heart Failure Association (HFA)-PEFF and H2FPEF Scores offer structured diagnostic approaches, their clinical utility is still debated. This study aims to compare the diagnostic accuracy of HFpEF Scores versus inclusion criteria used in sodium-glucose cotranspo
In the Swedish context, ‘intergenerational Collaborative Housing’ and ‘Collaborative Housing for the second half of life’ (CH2L), based on the self-work model, were developed in the 1980s and 1990s. The chapter examines how ageing individuals developed caring practices and mutual support strategies in these collective housing forms and how such practices were adapted during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Ulnar nerve entrapment at the elbow (UNE) is the second most common compression neuropathy in the upper limb. Immediate return-to-work (RTW) after surgery is seldom possible due to restrictions and recovery demands. We aimed to explore RTW after UNE surgery and investigate factors contributing to variations. A prospective study with patients undergoing primary UNE surgery was conducted. Treatment
Modified ZYMO DNA/RNA miniprep extraction protocol written in a user friendly way to reduce in-process-decisions and process time. Sample type is organic soil, peat, from a degraded rich fenThis protocol includes modifications to tackle clogged filters. Samples were centrifuged for 45 seconds instead of 30 seconds in first pass through filters as 100 ul to 200 ul sample remained trapped above filt
Young adults presenting with knee pain, instability, or both after twisting the knee during sports or at work are commonly seen in primary care. If the symptoms and injury history correspond with suspicion of a torn anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) or meniscal injury, sometimes in combination with positive findings on magnetic resonance imaging, patients are often referred for surgical treatment.
Våld i nära relationer och särskilt mäns våld mot kvinnor, anses idag utgöra ett allvarligt samhällsproblem. Det finns studier som visar att ungefär vart tionde barn i Sverige någon gång har upplevt våld mellan närstående vuxna. Detta kan få förödande konsekvenser för barnet i form av både fysiska och psykiska skador. Att låta barn bevittna våld eller andra brottsliga gärningar mellan närstående äViolence in close relationships and especially men’s violence against women, is today considered a social problem. There are studies showing that approximately every tenth child in Sweden has ever experienced violence between related adults. This can cause devastating consequences for a child, such as both physical and mental injuries. Letting children witness violence or other criminal acts betwe
This thesis aims to explore the meanings behind rural reading rooms (tushushi) in Yunnan Province, PRC. Rural reading rooms are small libraries attached to the village Party compound in Chinese villages; for the past decade 600 000 reading rooms have been established in administrative villages in China, and now benefit more than 1 billion farmers in what is arguably the world’s most important deve
Denna uppsats syfte är att undersöka sätt att utveckla engagemang i och förståelse av klimatfrågan genom läsundervisning. Metoden jag har valt för att utreda det är aktionsforskning, genomförd på en gymnasieskola i södra Skåne. Där gjorde jag med sex elever en övning utifrån min valda sorts läsundervisning, lässtrategin dialogbaserad strategiundervisning, och en aktuell text om klimathotet. På så
I denna rapport föreslås en metod som syftar till att fördjupa förståelsen för identifiering av verifieringsbehovet, som rekommenderas i de svenska byggreglerna för analytisk dimensionering av byggnadstekniskt brandskydd. Syftet med denna rapport är att ge vägledning åt ingenjörer att noggrant ta reda på vilken effekt en förändring av en byggnads utformning har på byggnadens brandskyddssystem. Fö
In 2006, the city of Korsør in Slagelse Municipality in Denmark experienced the worst storm surge recorded in history. In order to prevent greater damage of buildings and sensitive infrastructures in the future, dikes and evacuation procedures have been brought up for discussion. This thesis examines resilience to flooding in Korsør by conducting in-depth qualitative interviews with a resident fro
Sedan Sveriges etikprövningslag började gälla år 2004 har kritiken mot den varit omfattande. På senare år har debatten kring lagen varit extra intensiv, och kritiken kommer framför allt från forskare inom samhällsvetenskap, rättsvetenskap och humaniora. Kritiken mot lagen och Sveriges etikprövningssystem går i första hand ut på att etikprövningslagen försvårar vissa typer av forskning till den graThe Swedish Act (2003:460) concerning the ethical review of research involving humans (“Ethical Review Act”) has been widely criticized since its introduction. In the latest years the debate has been intensive, with critique from researchers in social studies, law and humanities. The critique is primarily implying that the Swedish Ethical Review Act aggravate certain types of research to that exte
Background and purpose: During radiotherapy, rectal cancer patients show inter-fractional internal motion that effects the delivered dose distribution. The purpose of this work is to study I) the inter-fractional bladder volume change, II) the effect of bladder volume change on bowel dose distribution, III) the effect of bladder optimization on the relationship between bladder volume and bowel dos
Background & Purpose: Radiation therapy is an essential treatment for cancer patients with the ultimate goal to deliver radiation doses to the tumour with precision while minimizing exposure to surrounding healthy tissues. Treatment verification is crucial to ensure the accuracy of radiation delivery, for instance by measuring the radiation dose distribution. Among various dosimetry techniques
Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka hur EU:s reglering av mellanhand-sansvar och de nya processuella skyldigheter som åläggs medieplattformar förhåller sig till det yttrandefrihetsrättsliga skydd som finns i Europakonvent-ionen (EKMR) och EU-stadgan. Uppsatsen innehåller en analys av det grund-läggande skyddet för yttrande- och informationsfriheten som stadgas i artikel 10 EKMR och artikel 1The aim of this study is to examine how the European Union’s regulation of intermediary liability and the new procedural obligations imposed on media platforms relate to the protection of freedom of expression contained in the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR) and the European Union Charter. The present paper embarks on an analysis of the foundational protection of freedom of expression a
Botswana is an arid country endemic to drought. The major water supply in the capital Gaborone, the Gaborone Reservoir, has received a failed status early this year due to diminishing water levels which have fallen below six percent of the total potential volume in 2014. However, there seems to be no official consensus as to what has caused this extreme decrease in volume. Water scarcity can have
