IntroductionGlobal water scarcity requires new approaches for water treatment. Membrane technology has proven itself as key technology for water treatment from seawater desalination with reverse osmosis to wastewater treatment with membrane bioreactors. In this presentation three new water treatment concepts based on membrane technology and their development from idea to pilot scale testing will b
BACKGROUND: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a serious complication after major surgical procedures. We examined the incidence, risk factors, and mortality of patients who sustained AKI after abdominal surgery in a large population-based cohort.METHODS: All patients who underwent open and laparoscopic abdominal surgery (excluding genitourinary and abdominal vascular procedures), between 2007 and 2014

Tidigare forskning har visat att störda ätbeteenden (disordered eating/DE) är vanligt bland ungdomar, särskilt bland tonårsflickor. DE definieras som olika beteenden (t.ex. kräkningar, restriktivt ätande) och negativa attityder till ätande/kroppsform/utseende/vikt. Avhandlingen hade flera syften. (1) Att validera en svensk version av frågeformuläret RiBED-8 (risk behaviour for eating disorders) soPrevious research has described that disordered eating (DE) is common in adolescents, especially in girls. DE is defined as maladaptive behaviours (e.g., vomiting) and negative attitudes toward eating and one’s body shape, appearance, and weight. The present thesis had several aims. First, to validate a Swedish version of a Danish 8-item screening inventory, Risk Behaviour for Eating Disorders/RiB
INTRODUCTION: Thorough treatment planning is essential for a good clinical outcome in orthognathic treatment. The planning is often digital. Both 2-dimensional (2D) and 3-dimensional (3D) software options are available. The aim of this randomized 2-arm parallel double-blinded active-controlled clinical trial was to compare the outcomes of computer-based 2D and 3D planning techniques according to p
Two large-scale randomized screening trials, the Prostate, Lung, Colorectal and Ovary (PLCO) cancer trial in the USA and the European Randomized Screening for Prostate Cancer (ERSPC) trial in Europe are currently under way, aimed at assessing whether screening reduces prostate cancer mortality. Up to the end of 1998, 102,691 men have been randomized to the intervention arm and 115,322 to the contr
BACKGROUND: Lynch syndrome is a rare familial cancer syndrome caused by pathogenic variants in the mismatch repair genes MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, or PMS2, that cause predisposition to various cancers, predominantly colorectal and endometrial cancer. Data are emerging that pathogenic variants in mismatch repair genes increase the risk of early-onset aggressive prostate cancer. The IMPACT study is prospect
Background: Emergency department (ED) crowding is a serious problem worldwide causing decreased quality of care. It is reasonable to assume that the negative effects of crowding are at least partially due to high staff workload, but previous crowding metrics based on high workload have not been generalisable to Swedish EDs and have not been associated with increased mortality, in contrast to, e.g.
ObjectiveTricuspid annuloplasty is associated with increased risk of atrioventricular block and subsequent implantation of a permanent pacemaker. However, the exact incidence of permanent pacemaker, associated risk factors, and outcomes in this frame remain debated. The aim of the study was to report permanent pacemaker incidence, risk factors, and outcomes after tricuspid annuloplasty from nation
For me, internationalisation is a learning outcome, not just about international mobility. It is about ensuring that students actively participate in a learning experience that prepares them for a world that is more and more internationally and interculturally connected - that both Danish and non-Danish students receive the basic international and intercultural skills and knowledge they need in cu
Circular economy (CE) is still a nascent research field in the built environment, however, has gained traction in the last decade. Despite it being generally accepted that sustainability consists of three dimensions, namely, social, environmental, and economic, CE has been criticised for focusing on environmental and economic impact whilst neglecting the social aspect. Further, CE has been critici

All införskaffning av varor, tjänster och byggentreprenader som görs inom den offentliga sektorn ska som huvudregel föregås av en offentlig upphandling. Offentlig upphandling kan definieras som en urvalsprocess med vissa moment som till sist leder till att den upphandlande myndigheten tecknar avtal med en vinnande leverantör. Det upphandlingsrättsliga regelverket inom EU består främst av två direkAll procurement of goods, services and works made in the public sector shall in principle be preceded by public procurement. Public procurement can be defined as a selection process with some elements that finally leads to that the contracting authority signs a contract with the winning supplier. The procurement legal framework in the EU mainly consists of two directives; directive 2004/18/EC and
Volatile conflicts, poverty and suppression of basic human rights stemming from one's political or religious affiliations, gender and race, are some of the various reasons why thousands flee home in the hopes of finding some kind of security. As the world observes the appalling deterioration of conflicts in Western Sudan, Iraq and Haiti, we simultaneously observe neighbouring or developed coun
Antalet företagsförvärv har vuxit snabbt i Sverige under de två senaste årtiondena och är idag en del av viktiga strategiska och ekonomiska beslut för många företag. Ett företagsförvärv kan dessutom vara en mycket stor ekonomisk risk för den förvärvande parten. Denna uppsats undersöker processen för ett företagsförvärv från den förvärvande partens perspektiv samt ur ett rättsekonomiskt perspektiv.The amount of acquisitions has grown rapidly in Sweden during the past two decades and are today a very important strategic and financial decision for many companies. A corporate acquisition could also be a very big financial risk for the acquiring party. This thesis researches the process of corporate acquisitions from the perspective of the acquiring party with a focus on an economic analysis of
I takt med att de finansiella marknadernas omfång och betydelse har ökat, har allmänhetens intresse för de finansiella marknaderna också ökat. Idag omsätter den svenska värdepappersmarknader flera miljarder kronor och ger upphov till ett växande informationsflöde. En anledning till det stora intresset för värde-pappersmarknader är bland annat att det internationella inslaget har ökat kraf-tigt. MyAs the financial markets grow and their importance increases, so has public interest. The financial markets in Sweden have a turnover of several billion Swedish kronor which goes some way to explain the current interest. Other reasons for the increasing public interest are the expanding transnational trade and the rapid evolution of trade technology. Illegal insider trading (insider dealing) is
Den tilltalades tidigare brottslighet kan i svensk rätt påverka påföljdsbestämningen för ny brottslighet, dvs. straffmätning och påföljdsval, på främst tre sätt. I första hand kan den tidigare brottsligheten beaktas genom ett skärpt påföljdsval. I andra hand har rätten möjlighet att förklara villkorligt medgiven frihet förverkad. I sista hand finns det genom straffskärpning möjlighet att förlänga
Popular Abstract in Swedish Många av alla kemiska processer som pågår i våra kroppar utförs av proteiner. När de inte fungerar blir vi sjuka. I vissa fall, till exempel vid Alzheimers sjukdom eller Creutzfeld Jacobs sjukdom, beror det på att ett visst protein har fel form. Att förstå hur proteiner antar sin slutliga form och vad det har för inverkan på proteinets funktion är således viktigt. ÅVery little is known about a considerable part of all proteins and it is time consuming and expensive to study each individual protein to determine its function, structure and cellular role. Proteins retain structural, functional and sequential characteristics from ancestral proteins and hence two proteins that share a common ancestor, i.e. are homologs, will to some extent have similar sequen
Det ökande byggandet av stadsvägtunnlar, de alpina tunnelolyckorna runt millennieskiftet, och det efterföljande EU-direktiv (2004/54/EC) med minimikrav gällande brandsäkerhet har placerat brandsäkerhet i vägtunnlar högt på dagordningen. Samtidigt är moderna enkelriktade vägtunnlar ofta bland de säkraste delarna av vägsystemet. Har vi kommit till en punkt där resurserna används bättre någon annanstThis thesis can be described as a journey in performance-based fire safety design. Along the way questions such as what fire safety is, how it can be measured, whether we are posing the right questions, or engineer the best solutions, have arisen. The safety journey naturally started out with the traditional view, with fire safety engineering based on limit-based design. Using this paradigm the sa
