Aim: The aim of this study was to investigate the annual prevalence and characteristics of Paediatric Feeding Disorder (PFD) in Västerbotten county, Sweden, during the years 2012–2022. Methods: In this retrospective study, medical records of patients attending paediatric clinics with possible feeding problems were identified by applying pre-defined diagnostic and procedure codes. Diagnostic criter

This thesis addresses many issues surrounding the simple question: why have trams? With city populations exponentially growing alongside concerns over the environment and the economy, tramways have become a resurging form of sustainable transportation for municipalities. Once an endangered transportation mode, torn up and scrapped to make room for the age of cars, tramways are phoenix artifacts of

As a working group named AGAR is currently looking into replacements and complements to Stibor, the subject of reference rates will become increasingly relevant in the coming years. This paper therefore investigates Stibor as well as future options for a Swedish reference rate, consolidating information of and opinions on reference rates in Sweden, primarily through the review of previous literatu

Effective workload planning in Skåne hospitals relies on accurate, data-driven birth forecasts. Weekly and hospital-level predictions are particularly important in the healthcare sector for operational decision-making, including staffing and maternity unit resource allocation. This study develops and evaluates a time series forecasting model capable of predicting weekly birth counts in the Skåne r

Cement är ett av världens mest använda material och agerar som bindemedel i betong och murbruk. Portlandcement, som är den mest förekommande typen av cement, produceras årligen i en kvantitet av fyra miljarder ton. Cementproduktionen står för ca 7 % av de globala koldioxidutsläppen och det finns ett stort intresse i att hitta alternativa vägar och optimeringsmöjligheter, för att minimera klimatpåvCement is one of the world's most used materials and acts as a binder in concrete and mortar. Portland cement, which is the most common type of cement, is produced annually in a quantity of four billion metric tons. Cement production accounts for approximately 7 % of the global carbon dioxide emissions and there is a great interest in finding alternative routes and optimization possibilities,

Given that not every city can be an alpha city in today's global urban hierarchy, what options do beta cities such as Toronto or Chicago realistically have in the cultural economy? Put differently, if cultural capitals such as New York, London, Paris, and Tokyo play critically important roles in certifying and establishing new trends in theatre, fashion, and other cultural industries, how can beta

Traditionally, multi-family houses have been constructed using heavy, homogenous materials like concrete and masonry. But as a consequence of the progress of lightweight building systems during the last decades, it has been questioned whether standardized sound insulation evaluation methods still are appropriate. An extensive measurement template has been applied in a field survey where several vi

Bet-hedging theory addresses how individuals should optimize fitness in varying and unpredictable environments by sacrificing mean fitness to decrease variation in fitness. So far, three main bet-hedging strategies have been described: conservative bet-hedging (play it safe), diversified bet-hedging (don't put all eggs in one basket) and adaptive coin flipping (choose a strategy at random from a f
