The glymphatic system facilitates cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)-interstitial fluid exchange and plays a key role in solute clearance and neurophysiological homeostasis. While dysfunction of this system has been shown in traumatic brain injury, stroke, meningitis, idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus and neurodegenerative diseases, direct measurement of glymphatic transport in humans remains elusiv
Thesis purpose: To investigate the role of algorithmic literacy in the case of TikTok, and how its strategic performance, including the challenges and associated ethical issues, affects global marketers. Methodology: Adapting a social constructivist approach, twelve qualitative semi-structured interviews with global marketers allowed us to gather deeper insights Theoretical perspective: In order
The concrete sector is a major contributor to global greenhouse gas emissions; consumes substantial amounts of natural resources and serves as a significant source of global waste. The Circular Economy approach has been put forward as the solution to these environmental issues, but the overall effectiveness of the approach has been called into question by existing research. The aim of this thesis
This thesis is a compilation thesis with the title Young persons at homes for care or residence. On legal security, legitimacy and trust with respect to decisions on young persons in care. The thesis is the result of two research projects within the scope of my research studies at the Faculty of Law, University of Lund, Sweden. The two separate studies share the common theme of the influence of le
A pedagogical study.
We review the history of floristic studies of the parish of Stenbrohult, southern Sweden, where Carl Linnaeus was born in 1707 and spent his summers until 1728. Unfortunately, Carl Linnaeus never made a list of the wild vascular plants at his birthplace, although he mentioned at least 64 species from the parish of Stenbrohult in various manuscripts and books. However, he said that Stenbrohult was
Popular Abstract in Swedish Graviditetsdiabetes (GDM) definieras som förhöjt blodglukos (blodsocker) som uppstår eller upptäcks under graviditet och som oftast försvinner efter förlossningen. Orsaken anses vara en otillräcklig förmåga att öka insulinproduktionen i takt med det ökade behov som normalt uppträder under en graviditet till följd av hormonella förändringar. Livsstilsfaktorer såsom stillGestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is associated with a risk of adverse pregnancy outcome and is a predictor of subsequent diabetes. The aims of this work were to describe a reliable routine to diagnose abnormal glucose tolerance during pregnancy, to investigate women’s opinions of the specialist care provided, to determine the prevalence of diabetes one year after giving birth, and to elucidate
I flera andra europeiska länder har antalet elektriska cyklar ökat kraftigt de senaste åren. En liknande ökning förväntas också i Sverige. Hittills har kunskapen om attityder hos elcyklister i Sverige varit begränsade. Denna studie består av intervjuer med 39 personer från hela Sverige för att få en bättre förståelse för varför de har valt att cykla en elcykel, och vad de tror kan göras för att få
Background. To study group B streptococcus (GBS) colonisation in parturients and infants in relation to obstetric outcome and to define serotypes and antibiotic resistance in GBS isolates acquired. Methods. A population-based, national cohort of parturients and their infants was investigated. During 1 calendar week in 2005 all women giving birth (n=1,754) were requested to participate in the study
The Swedish referendum on the euro in September 2003 is an exceptional event for researchers of monetary unions and of European economic integration. Voters chose between maintaining the domestic currency, the krona, and replacing it with the euro, the single currency of the European Union. The referendum revealed significant dividing lines between Yes- and No-voters in areas such as income, edu

The housing sector is important for achieving ambitious environmental targets. In the European Union, buildings account for 40% of energy consumption and 36% of CO2 emissions. Considering the scale of the housing sector's environmental impact, interventions in how new housing is built and existing housing is renovated have great potential for sustainable transformation. However, the sector has not
A search is performed for a heavy particle decaying into different flavour dilepton pairs (eμ, eτ or μτ), using 3.2 fb- 1of proton–proton collision data at s=13 TeV collected in 2015 by the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. No excess over the Standard Model prediction is observed. Limits at the 95 % credibility level are set on the mass of a Z′boson with lepton-flavour-violating couplin
A search for the Zγ decay of the Higgs boson, with Z boson decays into pairs of electrons or muons is presented. The analysis uses proton–proton collision data at s = 13 TeV corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 139 fb−1 recorded by the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. The observed data are consistent with the expected background with a p-value of 1.3%. An upper limit at 95% con
I artikeln studeras vilken betydelse fantasi har i läsfrämjande insatser för barn och unga i Sverige 1980–2020. Artikeln tar sin utgångspunkt i den överraskande upptäckten att fantasi saknas som motiv för läsning i statliga dokument om läsfrämjande från 2010-talet. I en bred kronologisk och kontextuell analys spåras därför eventuella förändringar i synen på fantasi under fyra decennier. Källmateri
This paper provides an overview of both long-standing and new legal and policy developments concerning Environmental Human Rights Defenders (EHRDs). The focus is on four major components: i) observing different approaches and understandings about EHRDs; ii) analysing the content of international obligations concerning EHRDs and mechanisms for reviewing implementation and accountability; iii) discu
PURPOSE: Ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) patients and their physicians currently face challenging treatment decisions with limited information about the individual's subsequent breast cancer risk or treatment benefit. The DCISionRT biological signature developed in this study provides recurrence risk and predicts radiotherapy (RT) benefit for DCIS patients following breast-conserving surgery (BCS)
Background: Selective water uptake by neurons and glial cells and subsequent brain tissue oedema are key pathophysiological processes of hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) after cardiac arrest (CA). Although brain computed tomography (CT) is widely used to assess the severity of HIE, changes of brain radiodensity over time have not been investigated. These could be used to quantify regional bra
