A global faunal crisis close to the Eifelian-Givetian stage boundary in the mid-Devonian has been purported to be related to the impact of one or two major extraterrestrial bodies. This was based on unusual mineralogical and chemical features within a distinct composite marl bed, at a level c. 40 cm below the Global Stratotype Section and Point (GSSP) for the Eifelian-Givetian boundary at Jebel Me
Syfte:Genom analysen av våra fallstudier, bidra till en ökad förståelse av fenomenet Social Entreprenörskap. Metod: Studien omfattar en kvalitativ forskningsmetod med en abduktivt ansats och är en multiple fallstudie på två multinationella företag; Tetra Pak och Danone Group. Teoretiska perspektiv: Under studien har vi använt oss av teorier om Socialt entreprenörskap, andra begrepp och teorier som
Objective: Survival in cervical cancer has improved little over the last decades. We aimed to elucidate primary treatment patterns and survival. Methods: Population-based study of patients included in the Swedish Quality Registry for Gynecologic Cancer diagnosed 2011–2015. Main outcome was 5-year relative survival (RS). Age-standardised RS (AS-RS) was estimated for the total cohort and for the poo
Popular Abstract in Swedish Grupp B streptokocker (GBS) är den vanligaste orsaken till blodförgiftning, lunginflammation och hjärnhinneinflammation i nyföddhetsperioden. Ungefär en fjärdedel av alla kvinnor är koloniserade (bärare) genitalt av GBS under graviditeten och förlossningen. Hälften av barnen till dessa kvinnor blir smittade av bakterien i samband med födseln, men bara en liten del av deInfection with group B streptococcus (GBS), an encapsulated bacterium, is an important cause of neonatal morbidity and mortality. Capsular polysaccharides and cell surface proteins of GBS are candidate antigens for development of a human GBS vaccine. Proteins have many advantages as vaccine antigens. The majority of the neonatal infections are caused by strains of capsular serotypes Ia, Ib, II, II
Background: There exist few recovery and occupation-based interventions for mental health service users. Balancing Everyday Life (BEL) is a new occupation-based lifestyle intervention that was created to fill this need. Aim: To gain group leaders’ and participants’ perspectives of the BEL intervention content and format, including factors that helped, hindered, and could be improved. Methods: A co
The Xga blood group is differentially expressed on erythrocytes from men and women. The underlying gene, PBDX, was identified in 1994, but the molecular background for Xga expression remains undefined. This gene, now designated XG, partly resides in pseudoautosomal region 1 and encodes a protein of unknown function from the X chromosome. By comparing calculated Xga allele frequencies in different
Background: In 2014, the fragrance hydroxyisohexyl 3-cyclohexene carboxaldehyde (HICC) was excluded from the Swedish baseline series. Objectives: To study (i) whether fragrance mix (FM) II with 5% HICC detects more positive reactions than FM II with 2.5% HICC, and (ii) the reproducibility of patch testing with HICC. Methods: Two thousand one hundred and eighteen dermatitis patients at five Swedish
Background: Research and practice are often considered as two different worlds with different values, which causes a gap between them. Involving professionals such as practitioners, managers, decision-makers, and policy-makers in research on ageing and health might address the gap between research and practice, strengthen the healthcare system, and increase older people’s possibilities for healthy
Purpose: This qualitative study aimed to investigate experiences and perceptions of hospital physicians regarding the discharging process, focusing on information transfer regarding medications.Methods: By purposive sampling three focus groups were formed. To facilitate discussions and maintain consistency, a semi-structured interview guide was used. Discussions were audio recorded and transcribed
Background: Insufficient physical activity is a growing public health concern and is closely linked to obesity in both adults and children. Swedish physical activity on prescription (PAP) is effective in increasing physical activity levels in adults, but knowledge about how PAP is used in paediatric healthcare is lacking. Therefore, this study aimed to explore experiences of working with PAP for c
A one-pot synthesis of the globotetraose tetrasaccharide is reported. The synthetic method relies on the use of a p-methoxybenzyl ether as an in situ-removable protecting group. N-Iodosuccinimide/trifluoromethanesulfonic acid-promoted glycosylation of 2-bromoethyl-2,3,6-tri-O-benzoyl-4-O-(2,3,6-tri-O-benzoyl-β-D-galactopyranosyl)-β-D-glucopyranoside 5 at −45 °C with phenyl 2,4,6-tri-O-benzyl-3-O-(
Introduction: Streptococcus pyogenes (group A streptococcus; GAS) is a pathogen causing over half a million deaths annually worldwide. Human immune cells respond to GAS infection by activating the NLRP3 inflammasome leading to the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines that control infection. We investigated the role of C4b-binding protein (C4BP) and factor H (FH) in the inflammasome response to GA
Denna rapport utforskar konceptet undvikna utsläpp, även kallat Scope 4-utsläpp, som en del av företags hållbarhetsrapportering- och kommunikation. Med fokus på PowerCell Group, en leverantör av vätgasdrivna bränsleceller, undersöker studien hur Scope 4-utsläpp kan integreras i hållbarhetsrapportering och vilka möjligheter och utmaningar detta innebär. Undvikna utsläpp refererar till de minskningThis thesis explores the concept of Scope 4 emissions, also known as avoided emissions, within corporate sustainability reporting. With a focus on PowerCell Group, a provider of hydrogen fuel cell solutions, this study investigates the integration of avoided emissions reporting, assessing both the potential benefits and the challenges associated with this practice. Avoided emissions refer to redu
The purpose of this paper is two fold. First we clarify and enrich the understanding of the need for higher sales educated professionals through an extensive understanding of the sales transformation. Second, we develop an understanding of the sales role and its related competencies in a transformed sales landscape. We introduce a theoretical framework to understand the need for sales educated pro

Today’s students must navigate numerous career options while adapting to new digital norms around personal branding and showcasing success. These platforms provide valuable opportunities for inspiration and building a professional identity, enhancing career planning. How
Accurate diagnosis of frontotemporal dementia (FTD) with right anterior temporal lobe (RATL) predominance remains challenging due to lack of clinical characterization, and standardized terminology. The recent research of the International Working Group (IWG) identified common symptoms but also unveiled broad terminologies lacking precision and operationalization, with risk of misdiagnoses, inappro
