This thesis analyses spatial inequalities in access to social infrastructure across Skåne County, Sweden, with a focus on the differences between rural and urban areas, as well as socio-demographic characteristics. Using geospatial analysis with Geographically Weighted Regression (GWR), the study analyses how socio- demographic factors correlate with accessibility in these regions. To measure acce

The European Spallation Source is currently under construction in Lund, Sweden. Consisting of a linear accelerator delivering an unprecedented 5 MW proton beam to the spallation source, i.e. a rotating Tungsten disk, it will deliver high-flux neutron beams to multiple beamlines at which scientific experiments will be conducted in many scientific disciplines. To simulate the proton beam and for cr

The overall objective has been to provide guidance to Duni and analyze how they should control their inventory at each node in their new supply chain set up. The purpose was to determine appropriate reorder points for each location in Duni’s new supply chain setu
Banker har en essentiell roll i det moderna samhällssystemet funktion som betalningsförmedlare, kreditgivare och mottagare av ekonomiska medel från allmänheten som placeras till exempel på konto i bank. Utan ett fungerande banksystem blir möjligheten för företag och privatpersoner att förmedla betalningar till varandra, söka krediter eller förvara sina intjänade medel på ett tryggt sätt starkt bFinancial companies in general, and banks in particular, plays an essential role for the function of modern society. Without a working banking-system there would be no effective way to make payments and hardship would meet the credit-market. Some banks have been thought of as ”to big to fail”, although during the last years well-known international banks such as Leeman Brothers has been forced t

Sweden is a country surrounded by water and consequently boating is one of the most popular spare time activities in Sweden. The active boating life, in turn, leads to a healthy boating industry in Sweden and boating production plays an important role for the Swedish industry. The company SEAFLEX AB in Umeå is one of these Swedish boating equipment manufacturers. Their new range of mooring product
The purpose of this essay was to highlight what happens in the meeting between the child care investigator and the client, from the investigators perspective. Further, the essay examines the mechanisms affecting this relation – how the child care investigator's respective roles, as controlling authority and service provider, will be visible to the investigator and what the consequences of the
I svensk lagstiftning är en samförståndslösning något som eftersträvas och anses vara barnets bästa. På flera ställen i vår lagbok, bland annat i Föräldrabalken och i Socialtjänstlagen, finns regleringar vad domare och socialtjänstemän är skyldiga att göra för att underlätta en samförståndslösning. Även i Norge ses samförståndslösningar som något positivt. Förutom de frivilliga samtalen på socialk

Tidigare forskning har visat att patienter inom vuxenpsykiatrisk vård utsätts för kränkningar av vårdpersonal, där dehumanisering och stigmatisering av psykisk sjukdom ses som bidragande faktorer. Denna studie ämnade undersöka om det fanns skillnader mellan anmälningar till Inspektionen för vård och omsorg (IVO) rörande kränkande bemötande jämfört med anmälningar rörande andra bemötandebrister, utPrevious research has shown that patients in adult psychiatric care are subject to abuse by healthcare staff, where dehumanization and stigmatization of mental illness are seen as contributing factors. This study aimed to investigate whether there were differences between reports to the Health and Social Care Inspectorate (IVO) concerning abusive treatment compared to reports concerning other trea
Objective: Testicular torsion (TT) is a medical emergency, difficult to identify solely through clinical evaluation. This study aims to develop an assessment algorithm with a safe lower threshold for complementary ultrasound. Material and methods: Males between 1 and 30 years of age assessed for suspected TT during the years 2019 – 2023 were retrospectively included. Clinical assessments were cond
The objective of the study was to determine the prevalence and comorbidity of persisting attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in adult psychiatric outpatients. Consecutive patients, first visits excluded, at a general psychiatric outpatient clinic were offered a screening for childhood ADHD with the Wender Utah Rating Scale (WURS). One hundred and forty-one patients out of 398 (35%) com
The self-report Drug Attitude Inventory (DAI), in 30- and 10-item versions, provides unique information of clinical relevance for monitoring treatment adherence among people diagnosed with schizophrenia. The primary purpose of this paper was to evaluate the 10-item version among patients living in sheltered housing. Data were collected among 68 persons living in sheltered housing, most of them (82
Microbial enzyme diversity is a key to understand many ecosystem processes. Whole metagenome sequencing (WMG) obtains information on functional genes, but it is costly and inefficient due to large amount of sequencing that is required. In this study, we have applied a captured metagenomics technique for functional genes in soil microorganisms, as an alternative to WMG. Large-scale targeting of fun
We present deep Hubble Space Telescope ACS observations of the G1 clump, a distinct stellar overdensity lying at similar to 30 kpc along the southwestern major axis of M31, close to the G1 globular cluster ( from the work of Ferguson and coworkers). Our well-populated color-magnitude diagram reaches similar to 7 mag below the red giant branch tip with 90% completeness, and allows the detection of
BACKGROUND: Urinary tract infection (UTI) is a common infection diagnosis in children, and efficient diagnosis and treatment are important to avoid serious complications. In this study we investigated whether urinary levels of neutrophil-derived heparin-binding protein (HBP) can be used as a marker of UTI in children. These results were compared to those of dipstick analysis, interleukin-6 (IL-6)
The Van (forest) Gujjars, surviving as forest pastoralists in the central part of the Indian Himalaya, are a people who, due to their nomadic lifestyle, have since colonial rule found themselves at the margin of Indian society.
