Prior to the operation of the first Belarussian nuclear power plant (BelNPP), the baseline of the radiation environment was determined within a radius of about 30 km from BelNPP. This independent assessment was carried out during two expeditions in 2019. In 2022, a similar survey was carried out (during the initialoperation of BelNPP) on the Lithuanian side of the boarder. Here we present the over
A search for light long-lived neutral particles with masses in the O(MeV–GeV) range is presented. The analysis targets the production of long-lived dark photons in the decay of a Higgs boson produced via gluon–gluon fusion or in association with a W boson. Events that contain displaced collimated Standard Model fermions reconstructed in the calorimeter or muon spectrometer are selected in 139 fb−1
Background: The global incidence of stroke is on the rise, primarily due to an increase in the aging population and the prevalence of vascular risk factors among the elderly. However, stroke is a treatable condition if promptly recognized and managed effectively. To optimize stroke management, it is crucial to establish a well-prepared infrastructure comprising adequately trained physicians workin
Multiple myeloma (MM) is caused by the uncontrolled, clonal expansion of plasma cells. While there is epidemiological evidence for inherited susceptibility, the molecular basis remains incompletely understood. We report a genome-wide association study totalling 5,320 cases and 422,289 controls from four Nordic populations, and find a novel MM risk variant at SOHLH2 at 13q13.3 (risk allele frequenc
Background: Patients with colorectal cancer were examined to determine (1) whether elevated carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) levels, either before treatment or after surgery, was associated with an increased risk of overall or colorectal cancer-specific mortality or recurrence, and (2) whether high intensity follow-up would benefit those patients. Materials and methods: Post-hoc analysis based on 25
Hydrogenated vegetable oil (HVO) is a renewable diesel fuel used to replace petroleum diesel. The organic compounds in HVO are poorly characterized; therefore, toxicological properties could be different from petroleum diesel exhaust. The aim of this study was to evaluate the exposure and effective biomarkers in 18 individuals after short-term (3 h) exposure to HVO exhaust and petroleum diesel exh
In the European Union, the setting of Operational Groups (OG) is supported by the European Innovation Partnership to tackle specific problems and favor innovation in agriculture. They constitute an important aspect of the current Common Agricultural Policy. Increasing or maintaining soil organic carbon (SOC) content under arable farming has been acknowledged as a primary target of European agricul
Om samhället bör reglera prostitution, och hur denna lagstiftning i så fall bör utformas, är ett ämne föremål för ständig debatt. Sexköpsregleringens utformning varierar kraftigt länder emellan. I Sverige kriminaliseras inte försäljning, utan endast köp av sexuella tjänster. Denna uppsats undersöker om det svenska sexköpsförbudets ideologiska utgångspunkter och skyddsintressen haft någon betydelse
Age is one of our seven grounds of discrimination and the one that causes the most people to feel discriminated. In addition, it is a basis to which there are numerous of statutory exceptions which, despite the Discrimination Act, allow employers to disadvantage or discriminate people because of their age. The purpose of this essay was to investigate why and when it is permitted to make exceptions

Voluntary carbon markets (VCM) have grown significantly over the past years. However, the VCM is facing a ‘credibility crisis’ due to governance, technical, and market issues. Notably, despite the significant role of credibility in the VCM, a lack of systematic assessment frameworks in this area is discerned. To address this knowledge gap, this thesis set out to build, test, and evaluate a framewo
Objective: This review aims to consolidate contemporary literature examining the impact of physical activity (PA) and exercise on sensitisation and pain perception in individuals with chronic non-specific low back pain (cLBP). Methods: A semi-systematic approach was employed, utilising Pubmed and PEDro databases for the period between 2013-2023. Eligibility criteria included randomised control tri
Sveriges våldsutveckling har väckt debatt om införandet av säkerhetszoner som brottsförebyggande åtgärd. Lagstiftningen trädde i kraft den 25 april 2024 och ger polisen befogenhet att genomföra visitationer och husrannsakan i transportmedel utan att det behövs en konkret brottsmisstanke. Denna studie ämnar att undersöka hur poliser i Malmö, Göteborg och Stockholm resonerar kring vilka fördelar res
Vehicle-to-everything (V2X) is a promising power storage solution for the challenges succeeding the Swedish renewable energy transition. Although, it is a niche innovation facing obstacles such as inadequate infrastructure, uncertainties of battery degradation and a lack of appropriate standards, which hinders its development. This thesis explores the business case for V2X for X Shore’s electric b
Bakgrund: Många personer med intellektuell funktionsnedsättning upplever en försämrad hälsa och delaktighet på grund av en brist på meningsfulla fritidsaktiviteter och sociala relationer. Syfte: Syftet med studien var att beskriva betydelsen av aktiviteten fotboll för upplevd hälsa och delaktighet för personer med intellektuell funktionsnedsättning som var aktiva fotbollsspelare i ett paralag. MetBackground: Many people with intellectual disabilities experience impaired health and participation due to lack of meaningful leisure activities and social relationships. Purpose: The purpose of this study was to describe the importance of football on experienced health and participation for individuals with intellectual disability who were active footballplayers in a parateam. Method: Semi-struct
Storskaliga våldsamheter mot medlemmar av folkgruppen Rohingya i Myanmar har sedan augusti 2017 lett till över 10 000 människors död och tvingat nära en miljon människor att fly till grannlandet Bangladesh. Som respons på händelserna inledde Gambia i november 2019 förfaranden i Internationella domstolen (ICJ) mot Myanmar och några dagar senare auktoriserades Internationella brottmålsdomstolens (ICAtrocities against members of the Rohingya group in Myanmar have since August 2017 resulted in over 10 000 deaths and close to one million people being forced to flee into neighbouring Bangladesh. In response to these events, The Gambia instituted proceedings against Myanmar before the International Court of Justice (ICJ) in November 2019. A few days later, the Prosecutor of the International Crim
