Young adult novels about suicide are questioned pieces of literature. Fears of suicide contagion and the perceived unsuitability of such narratives for adolescents lie at the centre of this conflict, which has resulted in the banning of books and other censorship moves. Suicide in literature has been the focus of relatively scarce previous research, and there is a need for further literary critici
Action Research, Participatory Action Research and participatory methods have faced a number of criticisms, including that they do not actually involve citizens or create social change, and that they are tokenistic. This thesis develops and tests a new participatory method that contributes to a democratic and emancipatory PAR that responds to these criticisms and the shortcomings of current method
Extractivist projects are causing widespread socio-ecological destruction across Indonesia, impacting ecosystems, rural communities, and Indigenous ways of life. At the forefronts of socio-ecological collapse, women are increasingly taking up leadership roles in environmental activism. Simultaneously, women environmental defenders (WEDs) are experiencing a growing crisis of violent repression. Thi
Chronic respiratory diseases (CRDs) are a group of incurable conditions, among which the most common, such as COPD and asthma, have significant negative impacts on patients’ mental health and economic productivity. Understanding of the causes and affected populations of CRDs is continuously evolving, with air pollution now recognized as an important etiological factor alongside smoking, receiving
The extensive use of neonicotinoids has raised concerns about their impact on pollinators like hoverflies, which are vital for pollination and ecosystem health. This study develops and validates a green extraction method using Supercritical Fluid Extraction (SFE), coupled with HPLC (High Performance Liquid Chromatography) - MS/MS (Mass Spectrometry) for selective analysis. SFE was employed as a m
Denna studie analyserar det uppmärksammade toppmötet mellan Ukrainas president Volodymyr Zelensky och USA:s president Donald Trump den 28 februari 2025, som avvek från traditionella diplomatiska normer. Syftet är att förstå vilka roller USA och Ukraina intog under samtalet genom att tillämpa ett rollteoretiskt ramverk hämtat från K.J Holsti och Lisbeth Aggestam. Som material för studien användes e
With Artificial Intelligence (AI) relying heavily on vast datasets, including publicly available personal online data and increasing amounts of fines for data breaches the individuals demand for control over personal data increases. The purpose of this thesis is to analyze the efficacy of the GDPR in granting data subjects control over their personal data when they are used to train AI. Therefore,
The present thesis aims to assess the efficacy of the GDPR in managing personal data breaches in healthcare. To fulfil its purpose, we have analysed the legal basis for processing sensitive personal health data and we have set the following research question: To what extent does the GDPR prevent personal health data breaches as well as mitigate their impact on data subjects? In order to conduct
The focus of this thesis is to examine how the civic identity of the second-generation migrants in Italy is constructed through media representations of migration, citizenship, and national belonging. Previous studies focused on migrants’ integration, which was based on their socio-economic situation, mobility, and assimilation process. I argue that these approaches are insufficient to explain how
As offshore wind farms continue to grow in scale and number, wake interaction between turbines represents a significant source of power loss and increased fatigue risk. Consequently, there has been an increased interest in wake control strategies. Wake control strategies aim to mitigate these effects but their comparative effectiveness across power, wake velocity and turbulence intensity is not we
Urban pluvial flooding threatens transport accessibility, yet the spatial factors such as elevation, vegetation, and road density associated with accessibility loss remain insufficiently understood. This study assessed changes in nearest-facility travel time to hospitals, clinics, schools, supermarkets, and fire stations under a 100-year return period flood scenario in Stockholm, Sweden, for both
Background: The Construction sector is globally one of the most resource-intensive sectors that accounts for significant material consumption and waste generation. Approximately 10% of Sweden’s construction and demolition waste consists of material waste. Alongside this 30 -35% of the total production costs are linked to waste and spillage. Purpose and research questions: The study aims to analy
Protein recovery from fermentation broths remains a challenge in downstream bioprocessing due to the complex composition of fermentation media. This study investigated a cascade microfiltration–ultrafiltration (MF–UF) process for protein clarification and concentration from a whey protein-based model fermentation broth. The work evaluated membrane performance, fouling behavior, cleaning efficiency
Early diagnosis of colorectal cancer (CRC) is crucial for successful treatment and mortality reduction. In this regard, blood-based tests play an indispensable role. Current research is focused on molecules actively secreted by tumor cells into small extracellular vesicles (EVs). This four-phase study included 613 CRC patients, 446 controls, and 120 precancerous lesions. High-throughput transcript
Background: Cardiac allograft vasculopathy (CAV) is one of the major long-term complications in patients after heart transplantation (HTx) limiting allograft function and longevity. CAV can be studied non-invasively by evaluating myocardial perfusion (MP). Aspirin is re--ed after Htx, but it is unclear whether it affects the development of CAV. The aim of this study was to investigate the associat
