Det finns runt 100 000 blinda och kraftigt synnedsatta individer (BKSI:er) i Sverige. Sådan synnedsättning leder till en kraftigt minskad förmåga för självständig förflyttning och lägre livskvalité, med ökad risk för arbetslöshet, trafikolyckor, en stillasittande livsstil och depression. Hälften av alla käpp- och hundanvändare är med om en huvudkollision årligen, och drygt var tredje för en fallolReduced independent mobility of blind and low-vision individuals (BLVIs) cause considerable societal cost, burden on relatives, and reduced quality of life for the individuals, including increased anxiety, depression symptoms, need of assistance, risk of falls, and mortality. Despite the numerous electronic travel aids proposed since at least the 1940’s, along with ever-advancing technology, the m

The Genographic Project is an international effort aimed at charting human migratory history. The project is nonprofit and nonmedical, and, through its Legacy Fund, supports locally led efforts to preserve indigenous and traditional cultures. Although the first phase of the project was focused on uniparentally inherited markers on the Y-chromosome and mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA), the current phase f

Urgent water and food security challenges, particularly in continental and boreal regions, need to be addressed by initiatives such as the Horizon 2020‐funded project WATer retention and nutrient recycling in soils and streams for improved AGRIcultural production (WATERAGRI). A new methodological framework for the sustainable management of various solutions resilient to climate change has been dev

Deltas play a critical role in the ambition to achieve global sustainable development given their relatively large shares in population and productive croplands, as well as their precarious low-lying position between upstream river basin development and rising seas. The large pressures on these systems risk undermining the persistence of delta societies, economies, and ecosystems. We analyse possi

Background: Intellectual disability (ID) is a neurodevelopmental disorder associated with a poorer health profile and higher mortality. Young people with ID have more sedentary lifestyles than their typically developing peers. Consequently, this group is at significant risk of developing lifestyle diseases (ie, noncommunicable diseases) later in life. Increasing physical activity and eating a heal

Globally, solar projects are being rapidly built or planned, particularly in high solar potential regions with high energy demand. However, their energy generation potential is highly related to the weather condition. Here we use state-of-the-art Earth system model simulations to investigate how large photovoltaic solar farms in the Sahara Desert could impact the global cloud cover and solar gener

Finns det kvalitetsproblem i virkesleveransskedjan som påverkar slutkvaliteten på producerade byggnader med trä negativt? För att bringa klarhet i den frågan har platsbesök och intervjuer genomförts på sågverk(3st), hos grossister(3st) och vid mottagning av virke på arbetsplatser(3st). En enkät har också gått ut till 58 stycken produktionschefer i Skåne för att undersöka bland annat vilka kontrollAre there quality problems in the timber supply chain that affect the final quality of the produced buildings with wood negatively? In order to shed light on the issue there has been site visits and interviews conducted in the sawmill (3x), wholesalers (3x) and the acceptance of wood in the workplace (3x). A questionnaire has also been provided to 58 pieces of productionmanagers in southern Sweden

Detta examensarbete ger ett förslag på en ny järnvägsstation i Kirunas nya centrum. I Kiruna pågår just nu en stadsomvandling, där en tredjedel av staden flyttas tre kilometer österut på grund av markdeformationer från Kirunagruvan. Detta innebär stora förändringar för Kirunaborna men även stora förändringar i stadsbilden, då majoriteten av centrum har eller kommer rivas och byggas upp igen i nya This thesis gives a suggestion for a new railway station in the new city center of Kiruna, Sweden. Kiruna is now experiencing an urban transformation, where one third of the population and the city moves three kilometers to the east due to ground deformations coming from the Kiruna iron ore mine. This leads to huge changes for Kiruna’s population, but also huge changes in the cityscape, since most

Popular Abstract in Swedish Under 1700- och 1800-talet omvandlades det svenska jordbruket som en del av en euro¬peisk utveckling som uppvisar övergripande likheter. De genomgripande förändringarna och deras betydelse för den långsiktiga samhällsutvecklingen motiverar att man talar om en agrar revolution. Trots övergripande likheter rymde emellertid den agrara revolutionen såväl regio-nala som lokaThe great transformation of Swedish agriculture in the 18th and 19th centuries was part of a European-wide development sharing similar characteristics. While researchers agree that extensive agro-technological, social and institutional changes took place, opinions differ with regards to the causes, spread, timing and sequence of events. Through a systematic study of agricultural production, land u

Abstract in French Beaucoup d’hommes et de femmes aymara affirment que le savoir humain, transmis par la langue, n’est qu’un pur ‘siwsawi’, i.e. des paroles, des opinions, des points de vue, des jugements d’individus particuliers. Ainsi, il s’agit d’un savoir particulier ; c’est une connaissance concernant l’opinion de certaines personnes, rien de plus. Ceci est, de manière significative, différenMany Aymara men and women claim that human knowledge as transmitted through language is pure ‘siwsawi’, i.e. talk, opinions, views and judgments of particular individuals. As such it is knowledge of a particular kind; it is knowledge concerning the opinions of other humans, nothing else. It is thereby significantly different from the non-linguistic, experiential knowledge that is lived-through and

Drought is arguably the most important regulator of inter-annual variation in net ecosystem CO2 exchange (NEE) in peatlands. This study investigates effects of drought periods on NEE and its components, gross primary production (GPP) and ecosystem respiration (R-eco), on the basis of eddy covariance measurements of land-atmosphere exchange of CO2 in 2006-2009 in a south Swedish nutrient-poor peatl

There is an ongoing debate about what should be considered an energy community (EC), particularly in terms of citizen engagement and the proximity of community members to renewable energy production. The type of EC that exclusively engages with actors in a certain geographical location is defined as a community of place (COP). In contrast, communities of interest (COI) do not limit membership to t

Post-harvest losses are a significant challenge in Bhutan and Nepal, where around half and two thirds of the population rely on agriculture for their livelihoods. Traditional open-sun drying methods suffer from contamination, slow drying and weather vulnerability, contributing to losses that can reach 40%–73% for certain crops. While improved solar drying technology offers promising opportunities

Background: Physical inactivity is a main cause of childhood obesity which tracks into adulthood obesity, making it important to address early in life. Physical activity on prescription (PAP) is an evidence-based intervention that has shown good effect on physical activity levels in adults, but has not been evaluated in children with obesity. This project aims to evaluate the prerequisites, determ

BACKGROUND: Hereditary angioedema (HAE) is caused by low levels of or defects in C1 inhibitor. Although disease activity may be modified by prophylaxis, emergency treatment, treatment for comorbidities, and oral contraceptives, the extent of their use is unclear. OBJECTIVE: To investigate trends in the use of disease-specific and interfering drugs in patients with HAE compared with the general pop
