Water availability faces increasing pressure due to economic growth, population growth,greater affluence as well as climate change. For companies, this could lead to higher businessrisks as water is often a key ingredient in their operations for example in cooling, steamgeneration and cleaning. Moreover, companies might be competing over water with otherstakeholders in the region when water scarci
Cellulosa är den vanligaste biopolymeren på jorden och en viktig reservoar av organiskt kol i terrestra ekosystem. I skogar kommer mycket av denna cellulosa från trä och bryts ner av saprotrofa basidiomyceter. Dessa svampar klassificeras traditionellt som vitröta eller brunröta baserat på deras sönderfallsmekanismer i lignocellulosasubstrat. Huruvida dessa funktionella kategorier förblir distinktaCellulose is the most abundant biopolymer on Earth and a major reservoir of organic carbon in terrestrial ecosystems. In forests, much of this cellulose originates from wood and is decomposed by saprotrophic basidiomycetes. These fungi are traditionally classified as white rot or brown rot species based on their decay mechanisms in lignocellulosic substrates. Whether these functional categories re
Despite the average 5-year survival rate exceeding 85%, childhood cancer is still the most common cause of disease-related death among children in Sweden. A cancer diagnosis is profoundly traumatic not only for children themselves, but also for the entire family, particularly the primary caregivers, their parents. This project aimed to investigate the extent to which a childhood cancer diagnosis a

Background: Adjuvant chemotherapy is standard treatment for other solid tumours, but to date has not proven effective in prostate cancer. Objective: o evaluate whether six cycles of docetaxel alone improve biochemical disease-free survival after radical prostatectomy for high-risk prostate cancer. Design, setting, and participants: Open-label, randomised multinational phase 3 trial. Enrolment of 4
Background: Lead time (LT) is of key importance in early detection of cancer, but cannot be directly measured. We have previously provided LT estimates for prostate cancer (PCa) using archived blood samples from cohorts followed for many years without screening. Objective: To determine the association between LT and PCa grade at diagnosis to provide an insight into whether grade progresses or is s
Trots den snabba utvecklingen av moderna tekniker för narkos och bedövning upplever många patienter smärta efter kirurgi. God smärtlindring efter en operation kan påskynda återhämtningen och därmed minska risken för komplikationer som blodpropp eller infektion. För att uppnå detta måste vi bli bättre på att hitta individer med ökad risk för postoperativ smärta redan innan de sövs. Sedan tidigare kMany patients experience pain after surgery. Postoperative pain may lead to delayed mobilization, persisting pain, and psychosocial distress. Others are given excessive analgesic doses and experience side effects. More optimal use of pain relief has several advantages, such as faster postoperative mobilization and fewer incidents of venous thromboembolism or infection. To achieve this, we must ide
With an increased focus on reducing greenhouse gas emissions, energy saving is of great importance in all sectors of society. EU directives set targets for member states to reduce energy use in buildings. Energy saving in historic buildings requires special measures, balancing energy-saving renovations against the preservation of heritage values. Traditional constructions are open to vapor diffusi
The Oak of Mambre presents an inner world of sound exploration, whose strands are woven through ancient cultures and traditions. Mambre is a birthplace, itself, literal and ideal. Compressions and rarefactions tell two stories; of Abram and Mambre, of survival and an heir.The Oak of Mambre begins where the reality and existence of a tone becomes manifest. Here we are looking at the sub-particulate
This presentation will give an overview of a peer learning model called Supplemental Instruction - Peer Assisted Study Scheme (SI-PASS). SI-PASS was invented at the University of Missouri in Kansas City, USA in the early1970s and was then directed to Universities and for the university students. In this presentation, the focus and discussion will be on how SI-PASS can be implemented in secondary s
This thesis explores the use of data mining and AI-tailored frameworks for extracting public health evidence from large health datasets. The research presented in this thesis demonstrates the potential of these tools for automating and simplifying the data mining process, and for providing valuable insights into various public health issues.In Paper I, we used data mining and natural language proc
A common migratory pattern in birds is that northerly breeding populations migrate to more southerly non-breeding sites compared to southerly breeding populations (leap-frog migration). Not only do populations experience differences in migration distances, but also different environmental conditions, which may vary spatiotemporally within their annual cycles, creating distinctive selective pressur
Physical exercise affects hippocampal structure and function, but the underlying neural mechanisms and the effects of exercise intensity remain incompletely understood. Therefore, we undertook a comprehensive, multi-modal 3T and 7T MRI randomized controlled trial (Netherlands Trial Register - NL5847) in which we randomized 52 young, non-athletic volunteers to a 12-week low- or high-intensity exerc
The polska, under lots of different spellings and titles, was the dominant music and dance repertoire in Sweden for nearly 300 years. The main purpose of this thesis has been to clarify some of the principal characteristics in both its dance and music forms. The thesis has both a historical and an ethnomusicological perspective and moves in the intersection between different types of traditional m
Background: Survey studies have found that vaccinated persons tend to report more side effects after being given information about side effects rather than benefits. However, the impact of high media attention about vaccine-related side effects on the utilization of health care is unknown. We aimed to assess whether utilization of health care services for newly vaccinated health care workers chang
Small birds are hot creatures with an average body temperature of 40° Centigrade, and so must burn energy at a formidable rate to stay warm. This becomes quite the challenge in winter when birds are 40-50 degrees warmer than outside for extended periods, even in comparatively mild regions such as Scotland. Thus, the little bird in winter must spend most of the day either feeding or searching for f
Endoscopic resection of colorectal polyps reduce morbidity and mortality from colorectal cancer (CRC).Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is a highly efficient and established method for treating advanced colorectal lesions in Asia, but experience of ESD in Western countries is limited. Large non-pedunculated colorectal lesions are prone to malignant transformation and it is therefore important
The objectives of the thesis were to seek a better understanding of polymorphic RBC surface molecules in the Thai, and to investigate the role of certain blood groups in malarial invasion. MALDI-TOF MS was employed in Study I as an efficient method for genotyping to establish the common blood group and platelet antigen genotypes of 396 blood donors. Investigation of outliers identified variation a
HLA-DQA1 and -DQB1 are strongly associated with type 1 diabetes (T1D), and DQ8.1 and DQ2.5 are major risk haplotypes. Next-generation targeted sequencing of HLA-DQA1 and -DQB1 in Swedish newly diagnosed 1- to 18 year-old patients (n = 962) and control subjects (n = 636) was used to construct abbreviated DQ haplotypes, converted into amino acid (AA) residues, and assessed for their associations wit
