This thesis provides the first empirical analysis of the electric vehicle ownership gap between vehicle owners living in apartments and those living in houses. Using 2018 survey data collected by RISE Viktoria on Swedish vehicle owners, this study uses regression techniques to quantify the extent to which occupants of apartments adopt electric vehicles at a lower rate compared to occupants of hous

Facing the challenges of climate change and energy depletion, the world needs to deploy more renewable energy to replace fossil fuels. As the largest energy consumer and carbon emitter, China’s sustainable energy transition is particularly important. Owning the vast offshore wind (OW) resources, the Chinese Government has set ambitious goals on OW that provides a reliable and reasonable alternativ

Sedan slutet av 1980-talet då Lagen om målsägandebiträde (1988:609) introducerades har svenska sexualbrottsoffer haft rätt till ett särskilt juridiskt biträde i form av det statligt finansierade målsägandebiträdet. Den bakomliggande idén till lagens införande var att kvinnor som utsatts för sexuella övergrepp är i behov av extra stöd och hjälp genom det straffrättsliga förfarandet, särskilt under Since the late 1980s when the Counsel for Injured Party Act (1988:609) was introduced, Swedish victims of sexual assault have had the right to a special legal counsel in the form of a government funded counsel for injured party. The underlying idea behind the Act was that sexually assaulted women are in need of extra support and assistance through the legal proceedings, especially during the preli

The Lecanoromycetes is the largest class of lichenized Fungi, and one of the most species-rich classes in the kingdom. Here we provide a multigene phylogenetic synthesis (using three ribosomal RNA-coding and two protein-coding genes) of the Lecanoromycetes based on 635 newly generated and 3307 publicly available sequences representing 1139 taxa, 317 genera, 66 families, 17 orders and five subclass

Understanding past methane dynamics in arctic wetlands and lakes is crucial for estimating future methane release. Methane fluxes from lake ecosystems have increasingly been studied, yet only few reconstructions of past methane emissions from lakes are available. In this study, we develop an approach to assess changes in methane availability in lakes based on delta C-13 of chitinous invertebrate r

The aim was to design and validate a questionnaire pertaining to eating problems in individuals with normal intelligence, within the autism spectrum. The questionnaire was based on literature search and clinical experience. The validation focused on psychometric properties of reliability and validity using a clinical group of individuals with autism Spectrum disorders (ASD) (n = 57) and a matched,

Swedish dentistry has been exposed to frequent rationalisation initiatives during the last half century. Previous research has shown that rationalisation often results in increased risk of developing work-related musculoskeletal disorders, thus reducing sustainability in the production system. In this prospective study, we assessed mechanical exposures among Swedish dentists in relation to specifi

Multiple studies have demonstrated that cancer cells with microsatellite instability (MSI) are intolerant to loss of the Werner syndrome helicase (WRN), whereas microsatellite-stable (MSS) cancer cells are not. Therefore, WRN represents a promising new synthetic lethal target for developing drugs to treat cancers with MSI. Given the uncertainty of how effective inhibitors of WRN activity will prov

Introduction: Obesity is a chronic, progressive, and recurring disease that contributes significantly to multimorbidity across Europe. Despite the publication of numerous clinical practice guidelines (CPGs) for obesity, many chronic disease guidelines for obesity related diseases such as diabetes, MASLD, heart disease, obstructive sleep apnea do not integrate contemporary understandings of obesity

Accessible design enables participation in the digital society for everyone. However, cognitive accessibility is not well established within the field of web design. The International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) provides a descriptive framework that relates health conditions to functioning and participation. ICF Core Sets are purposefully tailored shortlists of ICF c

Background: Rare disease clinical trials are notorious for complexities that frequently result in study-start delays. However, there is limited knowledge about how participants and researchers perceive these delays and what factors shape their experiences. A clinical trial in the rare, progressive disorder Pantothenate Kinase-Associated Neurodegeneration—the PKAN trial—encountered an unexpected de

STUDY QUESTION What are the perspectives of oocyte and sperm donors 14-17 years post-donation on the release of their identity and potential contact with donor-conceived offspring (DCO)? SUMMARY ANSWER Most oocyte and sperm donors wanted to be notified about future releases of their identity and were positive towards contact with DCO, but more than half expressed a need for support in relation to

Background: Ghrelin, an endogenous ligand for the growth hormone secretagogue receptor (GHSR), has two major functions: the stimulation of the growth hormone production and the stimulation of food intake. Accumulating evidence also indicates a role of ghrelin in cancer development. Methods: We conducted a case-control study to examine the association of common genetic variants in the genes coding

Nearly US$25 trillion is currently invested through Collective Investment Vehicles (hereinafter: “CIVs”) worldwide. CIVs calculate net asset values (hereinafter: “NAV”) on a daily basis, since such values are the basis for subscriptions and redemptions. In calculating net asset values, a CIV must take into consideration any withholding tax benefits by applicable tax treaties. CIVs require certaint

The exponential rise in atmospheric CO₂ driven by human activities is accelerating climate change and causing ocean acidification (OA). While the effects of elevated CO₂ on a wide range of marine species have been well documented, the implications of OA for bivalve aquaculture have received comparatively little attention. Using a multi-level meta-analytical approach, we evaluated the impacts of tw

The laminar burning velocity (SL) of methane (CH4), the primary constituent of natural gas, is a key combustion property essential for validating combustion kinetic models. The present study focuses on the CH4 SL at the very rich side of flames, where the available experimental data are scarce with highly dispersed measurement conditions, and data projection was carried out to overcome the difficu

Objectives To investigate the relation between patient characteristics at rheumatoid arthritis (RA) diagnosis and subsequent initiation of treatment with biologic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (bDMARDs) or targeted synthetic DMARDs (tsDMARDs). Design A retrospective cohort study. Setting and participants Consecutive patients (N=330) with early RA (symptom duration <12 months) diagnosed at

This paper investigates and discusses four instruments found in a sixteenth century Spanish book of navigation. The night clock is a rather standard application of similar instruments known since the fourteenth century in Europe. Cortés’ explanation of the causes of the deviation of the magnetic and geographical north is quite original. His instrument to correct for that the Polaris deviates from
