Good outcomes when emergency physicians diagnosed deep vein thrombosis Deep vein thrombosis of the lower limb is best diagnosed with ultrasound. Internationally, several studies have shown promising and often equal results when emergency physicians have been compared with radiologists in diagnosing thrombosis. Our results confirm these findings in a non-academic hospital and for the first time in

Contemporary museological research concentrates to a greater extent on the influence of external factors by the museum institution rather than internal influencing forces. There are few studies on the employees' influence of the museum activities. This master’s thesis developed from a curiosity for the museum teacher as a professional group that also created a motivation to examine this unexpl

Poly- och perfluorerade alkylsubstanser, även kallade PFAS, är en grupp av kemikalier som har använts i ett flertal olika typer av produkter, bland annat brandskum. Dessa ämnen är särskilt problematiska eftersom de är svårnedbrytbara, vilket innebär att de kan finnas kvar i miljön under lång tid efter ett utsläpp. De kan också ha en relativt hög rörlighet i mark- och vattenmiljön, vilket innebär a

Exploration and inspiration: An altruistic approach to material and trend in furniture is an explorative project in trends and single-material furniture. Through research of material strengths, weaknesses and suitable uses of aluminium, the project aims to shed understanding of a, for me, new material. That is, to add a new material to my material “vocabulary”. Alongside the material aspect, the p

Den negativa påverkan på biologisk mångfald från markanvändning får allt större uppmärksamhet. Det akuta behovet av att minska förlusten av biologisk mångfald kräver omfattande metoder för att bedöma påverkan på biologisk mångfald från produkter och tjänster. Livscykelanalys (LCA) är ett verktyg som används för att stödja beslutsfattande, men inkluderingen av påverkan på biologisk mångfald i LCA äThe negative impact on biodiversity from land use is attracting increasing attention. The urgent need to mitigate biodiversity loss calls for comprehensive methods to assess the biodiversity impact of products and services. Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) represents a widely used tool to support decision making, but the inclusion of biodiversity impact in LCA remains under development. This master the

This master thesis presents a suggested Renovation Passport for two typical 1960s single-family houses. Following the recently approved Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EU 2024/1275A), all member states are to implement voluntary Renovation Passports by 2026, which will aid in reaching the 2050 goal of a decarbonized building stock. The aim of Renovation Passports is to provide long-ter

Frågan om hur carried interest ska beskattas har länge varit en kontroversiell fråga inom skatterätten. Carried interest, eller särskild vinstandel på svenska, utgör en del av de avgifter som erhålles av ett riskkapitalbolag i samband med förvaltningen av en riskkapitalfond. I många fall får nyckelpersoner inom riskkapitalbolaget möjlighet att ta del av denna avkastning varpå frå-gan hur inkomsten

Skiljeförfarandet kategoriseras som en judiciell tvistlösningsmetod i Sverige och dess avgöranden går att verkställa enligt 3 kap. 15 § utsökningsbalken. Trots dessa förhållanden finns det inte i lagen (1999:116) om skiljeförfarande någon bestämmelse med innebörden att en skiljedom är förenad med rätts-kraft. Högsta domstolen har genom avgörandena NJA 1953 s. 751 och NJA 1998 s. 189 klargjort att

Inom den svenska civilprocessrätten kan svaranden välja att antingen medge eller bestrida kärandens yrkande. För det fall kärandens yrkande medges ska den prövande domstolen, i ett dispositivt mål, meddela dom med anledning av medgivandet utan att pröva grunden för yrkandet. Detta följer av dispositionsprincipen, vilken är en grundläggande princip som innebär att rätten inte får meddela dom över m

The capacity to assemble, store, and make available information in databases is ever growing. This development has accelerated in recent decades, driven by the advent and increased use of digital networks. Already at an early stage, it led to demands for legal protection of databases. In most countries databases have been protected in national legislation based on copyright principles. However, th

Background: Rectal cancer treatment has improved through important incremental surgical and oncological developments over the past decades. Localized disease is highly treatable with multimodal surgical and oncological therapy. Prognosis is dependent on several factors with tumour stage at diagnosis being the most important. Furthermore, curative treatment is highly dependent on radical surgical r

The burden of cardiometabolic diseases is increasing worldwide. Early detection of high-risk individuals is essential for appropriate diagnosis, better treatment outcomes, quality of life and lower health related costs. Aims: The overall aim of this thesis is to investigate the possible associations between plasma proneurotensin (Pro-NT) and risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD), type 2 diabetes (T

Energy users who don’t participate in efficiency and conservation programmes despite ongoing outreach are often referred to as ‘Hard-to-Reach’ (HTR). These individuals or organisations can include, e.g., low income or vulnerable households; renters; and small businesses. More effectively engaging HTR audiences is key to ensuring everyone benefits equitably from low-carbon energy transitions and re

This article develops a more comprehensive understanding of innovation-based renewal of industries from a structural perspective. Arguably, established perspectives offer rather simplistic views, portraying structures as either enabling or constraining for certain forms of regional industrial change. Inspired by work in organizational institutionalism on ‘institutional infrastructures’, this artic

BACKGROUND: Infective endocarditis is associated with higher mortality in elderly patients, but the role of surgery in this group has not been fully evaluated. The aim of this study was to assess outcomes of left-sided infective endocarditis in elderly patients and to determine the influence of surgery on mortality in the elderly. METHODS AND RESULTS: A nationwide retrospective study was performed
