Bristande handhygien inom vården är ett globalt problem och det finns ett samband mellan låg följsamhet av rutiner för handhygien och förekomsten av vårdrelaterade infektioner. Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka sjuksköterskors syn på orsaker till bristande handhygien samt vilka möjligheter som finns för förbättringar. För att undersöka detta användes ett frågeformulär med öppna frågor som
It is described in the preparatory work of the Social Services Act that a reasonable standard of living should be based on the prevailing conditions under which the individual lives. Because there is no specified description of the phrase, this entails interpretability of the phrase and therefore uncertainty about what it infers. The purpose of this study is to analyse the representation of the ph
Tuvalu, a low-lying Small Island Developing State (SIDS), is projected to face severe challenges due to climate change. Most notably, permanent inundation or the permanent loss of habitable land due to sea-level rise. This thesis investigates how Tuvalu has framed climate change as an existential security threat in its international discourse from 2021 to 2023. Applying an adapted version of secur
This work explores the catalytic activity of decavanadate (V10)-based catalysts in the selective oxidation of ethylbenzene (EB), a model compound of lignin-derived molecules, under mild conditions. The goal is to assess the catalytic efficiency, product selectivity, and the influence of counter-ions on activity through systematic testing of parameters such as temperature and catalyst loading.

Purpose: Violence against women is a major public health concern. Comparative research on outcomes across different service providers remains limited. Method: Women seeking support from social welfare units or women’s shelters were recruited from six organizations in Sweden. A pre–post design was applied, with structured interviews and questionnaires at baseline and 1-year follow-up. Fifty-one womViolence against women is a major public health concern.

Considering the ever increasing financial damages of floods and the need to manage the surface water, the use of new and more sufficient methods seems to be necessary. Therefore, the present study aims to investigate capability of the Gamma, Beta, Chi-square, and Weibull probability distribution functions (PDFs) for flood hydrograph derivation. The present study was conducted in the Bar watershed,
This paper critically analyses European Court of Human Rights jurisprudence on bulk data collection, situating it within the Court’s broader turn to proceduralism. We argue that, in cases concerning mass surveillance, the Court has effectively abandoned structured proportionality review and transformed national security from a prima facie legitimate aim into a de facto exception to Article 8. Plac
The rapid development of China's outbound tourism in European countries is receiving more and more attention from the European tourism industry. The improvements of the national economy, the characteristics of Chinese culture and the strengthening of the economic and cultural bonds between China and European Union countries have all played roles in its growth. This master thesis summarizes Chi
Asporin, a novel member of the leucine-rich repeat family of proteins, was partially purified from human articular cartilage and meniscus. Cloning of human and mouse asporin cDNAs revealed that the protein is closely related to decorin and biglycan. It contains a putative propeptide, 4 amino-terminal cysteines, 10 leucine-rich repeats, and 2 C-terminal cysteines. In contrast to decorin and biglyca
Cessation of smoking is followed by a rapid rise in plasma HDL concentrations. An earlier study has demonstrated a significant relationship between the increase in HDL concentrations and spontaneous changes in food intake, specifically an increased fat intake. In this investigation we have dissociated the effects of cessation of smoking as such from those of dietary alterations by monitoring plasm
Airspace dimension assessment with nanoparticles (AiDA) is a novel method to measure distal airspace radius non-invasively. In this study, AiDA radii were measured in 618 individuals from the population-based Swedish CArdiopulmonary BioImaging Study, SCAPIS. Subjects with emphysema detected by computed tomography were compared to non-emphysematous subjects. The 47 individuals with mainly mild-to-m
This study assessed whether methods for capturing the pedestrian experience of outdoor lighting, previously evaluated in a full‐scale laboratory, were applicable in a real‐world setting. It applied an approach capturing the human response to outdoor lighting in a systematic way, by assessing perception, evaluation and behaviour in the lit environment. The study involved 81 participants from two ag
Background Molecular DNA sequence data allow unprecedented advances in biodiversity assessments, monitoring schemes and taxonomic works, particularly in poorly-explored areas. They allow, for instance, the sorting of material rapidly into operational taxonomic units (such as BINs - Barcode Index Numbers), sequences can be subject to diverse analyses and, with linked metadata and physical vouchers,
