BACKGROUND: Cleaning workers are exposed to chemicals and high physical workload, commonly resulting in airway problems and pain. In this study the response in the upper airways and the physical workload following airborne and ergonomic exposure of cleaning spray was investigated.METHODS: A survey was answered by professional cleaning workers to investigate their use of cleaning sprays and the per
Aim/Purpose The goal of this paper is to examine digital applications used in Swedish schools and whether they fulfill their potential as support for learners. This is done by examining the kinds of feedback they provide and discussing if this feedback supports learning or not. Background The paper targets one aspect regarding which educational apps can be of high value for learners and teachers,
Objective: Subjective cognitive decline (SCD) is associated with an increased risk of Alzheimer's Disease (AD). Early disease processes, such as amyloid-β aggregation measured with quantitative PET, may help to explain the phenotype of SCD. The aim of this study was to investigate whether quantitative amyloid-β load is associated with both self- and informant-reported cognitive complaints and mem
Alzheimer’s disease is an aging related disorder of the mind, accountable for 60-80 percent of all cases of dementia. With its insidious progression and the decline of cognitive abilities, this disease is a major challenge for our society as a whole. This is because of the growing proportion of people living to advanced age and our current lack of capacity to prevent or even give effective symptom

Inom beredskapen mot radiologiska och nukleära olyckor och katastrofer spelar strålningsmätningar en avgörande roll för att ta reda på vad som har hänt och hur farligt det är för människa, djur och natur och på vilket sätt det påverkar miljö och samhällsfunktioner. I Sverige och många andra länder i världen har allmänheten en rättighet att få reda på vad som hänt och vad de utsätts för i ett eventThis thesis describes investigations made on mobile and stationary gammaspectrometry made both under laboratory conditions and in situ. The objective hasbeen to identify and quantify radionuclides in the form of point sources,contamination and widespread deposition in situations where the measurementgeometry is not known beforehand. Both scintillators and semiconductor detectors ofsimilar size wer

För att undersöka nanopartiklars toxicitet finns behov av att producera väldefinierade nanopartiklar dispergerade i en kolloid suspension. Men även för andra områden så som nanomedicin finns ett behov av denna typ av lösningar. För att dispergera partiklarna i vätska används ofta ytaktiva ämnen. När dessa ämnen tillsätts adderas de på ytan av partikeln och förändrar partiklarnas yta. Då forskning To examine nanoparticle toxicity there is a need to produce defined nanoparticles dispersed in a colloidal suspension. Such a solution could also be interesting for other fields such as nano-medicine. In order to disperse the particles in the liquid there are often surfactant added to the process that alternates the surface of the particles. As the research shows that the surface of a nanoparticle
Denna uppsats har till syfte att utreda det rättsliga klimatet och se på vilka faktorer som påverkade rättstillämpningen under de svenska häxprocessernas tidiga skede. Den ska även se hur detta tillsammans med myndigheternas agerande påverkade processernas fortsatta spridning. För att uppnå detta inleds uppsatsen med att ge en överblick över samhället och den gällande rätten vid häxprocessernas This paper aims to investigate the legal environment during period of 1667-1672 and to see which factors influenced the application of law during the Swedish witch trials in their early stages. It will also investigate how these factors, along with the actions of the authorities, affected how the early witch trials spread over the country. To achieve this, the essay begins by giving an overview of
Workers within the painting and decorating trade are exposed to stresses and strains to a considerable large extent. Statistics from 2012 indicate that one out of four Swedish male painters and decorators suffer from work-related disorders. The objective of this thesis was to thoroughly examine the stresses and strains that professional painters and decorators are exposed to throughout an average
The European commission have set targets regarding the reduction of emission of greenhouse gases, the improvement of the energy efficiency and the use of renewable resources of energy respectively by 20 % by the year of 2020. Swedish targets are even more ambitious compared to the European Commission that aims to reduce the greenhouse gas emissions by 40 %, improve the energy efficiency by 20 % an

Bakgrund: I flera havsnära kommuner finns attraktiv mark med vattennära och central lokalisering som utnyttjas ineffektivt. Hur kan man ta tillvara på denna mark och hur har tidigare exploateringar genomförts? Utgångspunkten för studien var att hitta en bättre användning för mark i hamnområden vilket födde exjobbsidén. Svårigheter i exploateringsprojekt inom hamnområden har tidigare varit förknippBackground: In several seaside municipalities, there are attractive pieces of land with central location, near the water, that are inefficiently used. How is the land utilized and how has previous exploitation projects been carried out? The starting point for the study was to find a better use for ground areas in harbours, which gave birth to the idea for this master thesis. Difficulties in earlie
Context Since the time of Tycho Brahe astronomy has been an observing science defined by the quality of its instrumentation. The introduction of primitive telescopes by Galileo in 1609 began a period of development of ever-larger telescopes with greater measuring precision. Refracting telescopes were soon overtaken technologically by reflecting telescopes. The epitome of this development is the bu
We present the first data release of VELOcities of CEpheids (VELOCE), dedicated to measuring the high-precision radial velocities (RVs) of Galactic classical Cepheids (henceforth, Cepheids). The first data release (VELOCE DR1) comprises 18 225 RV measurements of 258 bona fide classical Cepheids on both hemispheres collected mainly between 2010 and 2022, along with 1161 observations of 164 stars, m
Context. The peculiar Galactic globular cluster ω Centauri (NGC 5139) has drawn attention for its unique features, such as an unusually high stellar mass compared to other Galactic globular clusters and a broad distribution of chemical elements. These features have led to the hypothesis that ω Centauri might be the nuclear remnant of an ancient dwarf galaxy accreted by the Milky Way, potentially b
Background: Single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) devices equipped with cadmium–zinc–telluride (CZT) detectors achieve high contrast resolution because of their enhanced energy resolution. Recently, thallium bromide (TlBr) has gained attention as a detector material because of its high atomic number and density. Purpose: This study evaluated the clinical applicability of a SPECT syste
Background: Both aging and Alzheimer's disease (AD) affect brain networks, with early disruptions occurring in regions involved in episodic memory. Few studies have, however, focused on distinguishing region-specific effects of AD-biomarker negative “normal” aging and early amyloid- and tau pathology on functional connectivity. Further, longitudinal studies combining imaging, biomarkers, and cogni
Background: Elderly individuals with chronic conditions or acute illnesses are major drivers of hospitalization, with frail patients frequently utilizing emergency department (ED) services. To ease this burden, many countries offer home-based medical services. In Region Halland, Sweden, a mobile team intervention in municipal home care (MHC) was introduced to support frail elderly patients. This s
