Drugs acting on the central nervous system (CNS) and given to a pregnant woman during the latter part of pregnancy may affect neonatal morbidity of the infant. Little is known on the combined effects of different categories of such drugs. The redeeming of prescriptions for CNS-active drugs during the second or third trimester of pregnancy was studied by linkage between a register of prescribed dru

INTRODUCTION: The ability to provide primary care with the help of a digital platform raises both opportunities and risks. While access to primary care improves, overuse of services and medication may occur. The use of digital care technologies is likely to continue to increase and evidence of its effects, costs and distributional impacts is needed to support policy-making. Since 2016, the number

IntroductionYouth drinking has been declining in Sweden since the year 2000. There is a paucity of studies examining trends in alcohol-related harm during this period. The overall aim of the present study is to examine how trends in alcohol-related harm match trends in drinking among Swedish youths during 2000–2021.MethodsMeasures of alcohol use were obtained from national school surveys. Prevalen

This study demonstrates a method for predicting the dynamic fuel consumption on board ships using automated machine learning algorithms, fed only with data for larger time intervals from 12 hours up to 96 hours. The machine learning algorithm trained on dynamic data from shorter time intervals of the engine features together with longer time interval data for the fuel consumption. To give the oper

Even when the editor of the popular journal Populär Arkeologi claims to be communicating the latest advances in archaeological research to the public and that the authors often are professional archaeologists, this is done very rarely and focuses mostly on dating and artifacts. Is it the editor’s responsibility or must the archaeologists themselves highlight these issues in their articles? Common

Batch processes are very common and important in e.g. the chemical industries. The international standard ISA88.01 defines the terminology, the functionality and the models for batch control systems. The production specification of how to produce a batch, is called a recipe. This paper shows how high-Level Grafchart, a Grafcet and High-Level Petri net based programming language can be used to repr

EU:s konkurrensrätt och dess amerikanska motsvarighet har ursprung som på många sätt skiljer sig från varandra. Men systemen har många likheter, och dessa verkar öka i takt med att världen blir alltmer globaliserad. Somliga ser till och med den moderniseringsprocess som genomfördes 2004 som ett uttryck för att EU accepterat delar av det amerikanska sättet att se på och tillämpa konkurrensrätten. As globalization is emerging, competition law has grown from being mainly a national matter to a global concern. Starting from different traditions, EU competition law has moved towards U.S. competition law in some ways, yet not in others. Some consider the modernization process of EU competition law, initiated in 2004, an acceptance of U.S. antitrust thinking by embracing a more economic approa

Talking about inclusion in the workplace is an emerging concept, and the pressure of committing to work with it rests on the companies. The research conducted around inclusion is growing, and there are different suggestions as to how to define and work with the concept. Moreover, companies are lacking evidence to support how to successfully measure it among employees. By exploring inclusion in a s

In recent years, the focus on environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors has grown substantially from investors and the society overall. This successive switch to more sustainable practices has created a new interesting conversation regarding the impact of ESG on companies’ financial performances. This study will deep dive into this new problem statement, investigating the role of ESG both

Spill och dolda kostnader äter upp enorma resurser i industrin. Genom att anpassa Toyotas berömda Lean-metoder för plastfilmstillverkning hittar detta arbete verktygen för att avslöja de dolda kostnaderna och minska slöseriet. Föreställ dig ett isberg. Ovanför vattenytan syns toppen, de uppenbara kostnaderna där material slängs, eller när en maskin går sönder och måste repareras. Men under ytan This master thesis investigates the feasibility of utilizing Lean Manufacturing Principles, derived from traditional discrete manufacturing to enhance efficiency and reduce waste within a continuous process industry environment at Graphic Packaging Flexibles (GPI) in Lund. The company produces fiber- and plastic-based packaging solutions and faces challenges regarding waste. The purpose of this st

Background: The majority of childhood cancer survivors are at risk of treatment-related adverse health outcomes. Survivorship care to mitigate these late effects is endorsed, but it is not available for many adult survivors of childhood cancer in Europe. The PanCareFollowUp project was initiated to improve their health and quality of life (QoL) by facilitating person-centred survivorship care. Met
