The possibility to integrate sustainability considerations in the public procurement process has been debated over recent decades, resulting in several legislative changes. Collaboration between public and private sectors is emphasised as important in the development of sustainable public procurement but few studies focus on public-private collaboration related to sustainable public procurement.

Cochleaimplantatanvändare (CI) har ofta svårigheter i situationer med bakgrundsljud. Hearing In Noise Test (HINT) mäter talförståelseförmågan för meningar i brus eller tystnad. HINT med brus beskrevs ursprungligen ha fast presentationsnivå för bruset och variabel för tal. Resultatet är ett signal till brusförhållande vid vilket deltagaren svarade 50% rätt. Lägre resultat var bättre. Resultaten frå

Denna uppsats undersöker huvudsakligen vad som händer med anställningsvillkoren vid en verksamhetsövergång. De situationer vi fokuserar på är då båda parter är bundna av kollektiv- avtal samt då ingen part är bunden av kollektivavtal. En diskussion om vilka förutsättningar som ligger till grund för anställningsvillkorens övergång förs. Detta leder till en redogörelse för vilka undantag som finns oThis essay will mainly investigate what happens with the working conditions for employees during a transfer of undertaking. The focus revolves around getting an understanding of applicable law and investigating which protection the employees are entitled to. To investigate the answers to the questions, the legal dogmatic method is used. To achieve the purpose of this paper, it contains a definiti

It is not your fault – family counsellors work with sexually abused children and youth. Sexual abuse is a global phenomenon, occurring at every level of society. Previous studies show that victims often tell their stories about sexual abuse in a counselling setting. Family counsellors were chosen as respondents due to the fact that they work with different types of treatment and counselling and t

Sverige står idag inför ett växande problem med barn och unga som dras in i organiserad brottslighet. Rekryteringen har i allt högre grad förflyttats från den fysiska till den digitala miljön – en utveckling som det svenska rättssystemet inte har varit rustat för att möta. För att stärka de brottsbekämpande myndigheternas möjligheter att förebygga ungdomsrelaterad brottslighet – och därigenom mins

Cell replacement therapies using human pluripotent stem cell-derived ventral midbrain (VM) dopaminergic (DA) progenitors are currently in clinical trials for treatment of Parkinson’s disease (PD). Recapitulating developmental patterning cues, such as fibroblast growth factor 8 (FGF8), secreted at the midbrain-hindbrain boundary (MHB), is critical for the in vitro production of authentic VM DA prog

Background: The growing availability of electronic health records (EHRs) presents an opportunity to enhance patient care by uncovering hidden health risks and improving informed decisions through advanced deep learning methods. However, modeling EHR sequential data, that is, patient trajectories, is challenging due to the evolving relationships between diagnoses and treatments over time. Significa

Generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) is a severe and prevalent disorder among older adults. Cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT) is recommended treatment for GAD, but older adults benefit less than younger peers. Physical exercise has been suggested to improve treatment efficacy. We aimed to determine the efficacy of augmenting CBT with physical exercise for older adults with GAD. This randomised contr

ObjectivesPeople with serious illness approaching end of life often end up in emergency and hospital care, frequently against expressed preferences. Consequently, oncology trials record care days as a measure of treatment burden called “time toxicity.” However, this measure ignores the diminishing marginal utility of time: that the value of a day is higher when fewer remain. We aimed to incorporat

The ATLAS detector is installed in its experimental cavern at Point 1 of the CERN Large Hadron Collider. During Run 2 of the LHC, a luminosity of ℒ = 2 × 1034 cm-2 s-1 was routinely achieved at the start of fills, twice the design luminosity. For Run 3, accelerator improvements, notably luminosity levelling, allow sustained running at an instantaneous luminosity of ℒ = 2 × 1034 cm-2 s-1, with an a

Background: In Europe, approximately 291,000 cardiac arrests occur annually. Despite critical care therapy, hospital mortality remains high. This systematic review assessed whether, in comatose survivors of cardiac arrest, any drug therapy, compared to placebo or usual care, improves outcomes. Methods: We searched Medline, EMBASE, the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, and The Interna

Since 2003, Kamikatsu in Japan has established a sustainable zero-waste practice that has achieved a recycling rate exceeding 80%. By exploring how the community has shaped itself around the zero-waste concept, this paper aims to enhance our understanding of zero waste in practice from a universal design perspective. Interviews and photo documentation were used to gather data.

The parameters of PMSM with inter-turn fault are identified using a time-stepping finite element method (FEM). Analytical expressions (AE) uses the estimated parameters for fault analysis similar to FEM analysis. The fault waveforms, terminal voltages, obtained from the AE models are used for inter turn fault (ITF) detection, using Stator Flux Linkage DC offset (SFDO). A comparison is made between

At the 100 years anniversary in 2020 of the Reunion around 650 memorials have been protected. The memorials are to be found all over Denmark, where they constitute the largest group. The time of their erection, the localization, design, inscriptions, pictures and initiators are relatively well known. The article investigates two main questions. Firstly, why have so many memorials for the Reunion b

Around one-fourth of the global population lacks access to clean fuels and technologies for cooking, most of them living in low- and middle-income countries. Reliance on rudimentary and inefficient biomass cookstoves results in high pollutant concentrations that adversely affect the health of those exposed to indoor air pollution, the environment, and the climate. In this study, we systematically

This study presents an example of when the government introduced a regulation that did not coincide research, professional ethics, responsibility or commitments, and led to a conflict between professionals and rulers.In the Swedish statutes regulating opioid maintenance treatment (OMT), a unique definition of the term opiate-dependency, the opiate rule, was introduced in 2010—restricting the targe

Carbon-14 (14C) is an important contributor to the collective effective dose to the public due to releases from nuclear power plants (NPPs). In Sweden, only airborne emissions of 14C from NPPs are currently routinely monitored, and the existing data on waterborne 14C discharges are limited. A recent study of 14C in brown algae (Fucus spp.) in Swedish coastal waters showed higher F14C values collec
