The persistence and growth of the informal economy in South America is considered one of the most relevant problems in the region. However, studying informality across countries can be a complicated task due to the lack of homogeneous concepts and measurements. In this study, a database is constructed and harmonized with household survey data from 9 South American countries for 2019. This research
Today we live in a society that largely is based on objects, but in a world that more and more rely on objects it seems like the interest in the acquisition of objects from our own time decreases in museums. This master’s thesis investigates how contemporary life is represented in museums in policy documents and acquired objects. Through ideology critique and content analysis of the Nordic museums
Multiple studies have found a link between Mg/Ca in foraminifera and various environmental factors (e.g Billups and Schrag, 2002; Dissard et al., 2010; Ferguson et al., 2008). This has allowed for paleoenvi-ronmental reconstructions based on Mg/Ca in foraminifera to be made. My thesis has intended to find the influence of temperature and salinity on Mg/Ca in three species and one benthic Genus of
Two methods of computational analysis of DNA barcodes are presented. A DNA barcode is formed by making GC-rich regions of a DNA molecule fluoresce while AT-rich regions remain dark, thus when stretched using nano-channels and viewed in a microscope, the DNA molecule will resemble a barcode with black and white stripes. Because of point-spread functions and pixellation the resolution will be roughl
Young people, who previously have been placed away from home in foster care, are from the political perspective, a particularly vulnerable group. This is a very general manner that previously placed young people live or has lived more volatile and turbulent, with changing within education and very poor self-management, What these peoples experience when they enter the independent adulthood is an a
The global movement of bees for agricultural pollination services can affect local pollinator populations via hybridization. When commercial bumblebees are of the same species but of different geographic origin, intraspecific hybridization may result in beneficial integration of new genetic variation, or alternatively may disrupt locally adapted gene complexes. However, neither the existence nor t
The MAX IV Laboratory in Lund, Sweden, houses two electron storage rings operating at the energies 1.5, and 3 GeV. Both of these produce high-brilliance synchrotron radiation for beamline users. While the 1.5 GeV storage ring is a conventional third generation storage ring, employing a double-bend achromat structure, the MAX IV 3 GeV ring is the first realised fourth generation synchrotron. This r
Many ectothermic species are currently expanding their distributions polewards due to anthropogenic global warming. Molecular genetic mechanisms facilitating range expansion under these conditions are largely unknown, but understanding these could help mitigate expanding pests and disease vectors, or help explain why some species fail to track changing climates. Here, using RNA-seq data, we examin
The Old Wood in a New Light database project focuses on the digitization and accessibility of the results of dendrochronological samples analyzed and archived at four Swedish university-based tree-ring laboratories at Lund University, Stockholm University, University of Gothenburg, and the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences.

Land biosphere processes are of central importance to the climate system. Specifically, ecosystems interact with the atmosphere through a variety of feedback loops that modulate energy, water, and CO2 fluxes between the land surface and the atmosphere across a wide range of temporal and spatial scales. Human land use and land cover modification add a further level of complexity to land-atmosphere
Background and Aim: Central venous catheters are vital in the peri- and postoperative period for patients undergoing abdominal surgery but are associated with risks such as catheter related infections. Signs of infection, like tenderness and induration at the insertion site, are important to recognize, as they may precede catheter-related infections, but are often neglected. The aim was to compare
The complexity and dynamicity of microservice architectures in cloud environments present substantial challenges to the reliability and availability of the services built on these architectures. Therefore, effective anomaly detection is crucial to prevent impending failures and resolve them promptly. Distributed data analysis techniques based on machine learning (ML) have recently gained attentionThe complexity and dynamicity of microservice architectures in cloud environments present substantial challenges to the reliability and availability of the services built on these architectures.

Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingens syfte är att söka kunskap om vilka faktorer som bidrar till uppfostringsanstaltens framgång som social institution och dess ständiga misslyckande som behandlingsorganisation. Jag försöker förstå varför organisationer som §12-hem och särskilda ungdomshem finns och vilken betydelse de har i vårt samhälle. Svaret på den frågan söker jag på tre sätt: genom attThe aim of the present study is to find the factors and conditions that generate the success of the reformatory as a social institution and, at the same time, its well-known failure as a treatment organization. I try to understand why organizations like the reformatory exist and what meaning they have in our society. I seek answers by exploring the birth of the reformatory in a historical perspect
Popular Abstract in Swedish Proteiner är nödvändiga beståndsdelar i en levande cell. Dels bygger de upp viktiga strukturer och dels katalyserar de kemiska reaktioner. Proteiner kodas av gener. Varje protein motsvaras av en gen. Vägen från gen till protein är densamma i alla organismer på jorden. Först transkriberas en gen till en molekyl kallad mRNA (budbärar-RNA, eng. messenger RNA). Detta mRNA aDegradation of mRNA is a controlled process which is as important for gene regulation as the synthesis of mRNA. This thesis focuses on mechanisms of mRNA stability and degradation in Bacillus subtilis, the model of Gram-positive bacteria. The aprE mRNA, encoding an exported protease named subtilisin, is extremely stable with a half-life of more than 25 minutes. Average mRNA half-lives in B. subtil
Popular Abstract in Swedish Modellering och krav för automation av gradningsprocessAn increasing number of robots have been used for the finishing of castings during recent years. This is mainly due to developments to overcome problems that restricted their use during the past decade. The major difficulties have been the need to control reaction forces during metal removing by grinding operations and the lack of tools designed specially for robots. The elimination of these two p
OBJECTIVE :Patients with symptoms and signs compatible with psoriatic arthritis (PsA), with or without psoriasis, have been documented in the Swedish Early Psoriatic Arthritis (SwePsA) register. Our aim was to find markers for disease progression and to evaluate treatments for PsA using these data. METHODS: Patients referred to rheumatology outpatient clinics within 2 years of onset were assessed

Three studies investigated decision makers' memory representations of choice alternatives in most important real-life decisions. In Study 1, each participant recalled the most important decision that she or he had ever made and rated to what degree a number of characteristics could describe the decisions. In Study 2, the participants were asked to think about an important decision that they had ma
