CO2-expanded liquids (CXLs) are a class of solvent systems that have shown great promise as a green and effective medium in synthesis, catalysis, extractions, and analytical separation methods. Unfortunately, not much information is available on the polarity and miscible compositions of CXL systems, information which is crucial for selecting the right solvent system for a particular application. H
The aim is to investigate associations between sexual orientation and experience of suicide thoughts and suicide attempts. The 2012 public health survey in Scania, southern Sweden, is a cross-sectional population-based study including 28,029 participants aged 18–80 with 51.7% participation.

This chapter delves into the challenges encountered by victims of human trafficking and other forms of labour exploitation in Sweden as they struggle to access social rights and justice. By drawing from theories of victimisation as an interactional process, the study examines the role of professionals such as government agents, social services, unions, and NGOs as facilitators in assisting victims
BackgroundChronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and cystic fibrosis (CF) are characterized by persistent airway inflammation and airflow limitation. Measuring airway inflammation may be of value both in research and clinical practice. Calprotectin, a protein associated with neutrophil activation, serves as a potential biomarker for airway inflammation. This study evaluates the performance o
Aim: Allometric relationships, which describe plant growth patterns shaped by environmental conditions, reflect functional trade-offs and represent key functional traits that optimise adaptation, resource acquisition, stress tolerance and competition. Here, we assess how these allometric relationships and associated functional trade-offs drive ecosystem structure, functioning and competitive inter
Immersive virtual reality (IVR) provides great potential to experimentally investigate effects of peers on student learning in class and to strategically deploy virtual peer learners to improve learning. The present study examined how three social-related classroom configurations (i.e., students' position in the classroom, visualization style of virtual avatars, and virtual classmates' performance
Title: Making Sense of AI in B2B Strategic Positioning Date of Seminar: 2026-06-04 Authors: Noor Essaidi & William Eriksson Advisor: Mats Urde Key words: Artificial Intelligence, Strategic Positioning, B2B, Value Proposition, Differentiation, Sensemaking Purpose: The purpose of the study is to explore how professionals in B2B firms use, evaluate and make sense of AI in strategic positioni
Background: Hypertension and smoking are well-known risk factors for aortic dissection (AD), but it is unclear whether other lifestyle factors influence the risk. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between diet quality, physical activity, and risk of AD. Methods: The study included 28,094 participants from the Malmö Diet and Cancer Study, recruited between 1991 and 1996 and f
Marknadsförarens roll består i hög utsträckning av att stimulera och expandera efterfrågan på produkter och tjänster. I takt med att konsumtionen i samhället växer och resurserna samtidigt minskar står dock marknadsförarens roll inför en oundviklig förändring om de globala miljömålen ska uppnås. För att anpassa sig och i slutändan kunna dra fördel av denna transformation krävs vidare kunskap kringA significant part of the marketing profession consists of stimulating and expanding the demand for products and services. However, as society’s level of consumption increases at the same time as our resources decrease, the marketer’s role faces an inevitable change if the global environmental goals are to be achieved. In order to adapt and ultimately benefit from this transformation, marketers ne

There is a lack of research on how young adults experienced having a parent with a dementia-related illness, particularly regarding the support they received. This knowledge gap risked leaving young relatives without adequate help, as existing support systems were often designed for older relatives. Therefore, it was essential to explore their needs and experiences. The aim of this study was to ex
This master’s thesis maps and compares local literary networks within UNESCO’s Cities of Literature, with the aim of understanding how such networks are structured, what their functions are and how they are controlled and developed. Drawing on concepts from social network analysis and Bourdieu’s theories of social fields, capital and habitus, the study combines quantitative and qualitative methods
This thesis explores the phenomenon of quiet-luxury-inspired imitation fashion products in China. In recent years, quiet luxury has regained increasing visibility as a fashion aesthetic associated with understated design, subtle distinction, and material quality. With this trend, Chinese e-commerce platforms have seen the growth of brands that imitate the aesthetic and material qualities of high-e
This manuscript presents the digital hardware realization of a wavelet based event detector for cardiac pacemaker applications. The architecture of the detector is partially folded to minimize hardware cost. An energy model is applied to evaluate the energy efficiency the sub-threshold (sub-VT ) domain. The design is synthesized in 65nm low leakage-high threshold CMOS technology, and it is shown t
OBJECTIVE—The purpose of this study was to evaluate the metabolic effectiveness, safety, and tolerability of nateglinide in subjects with impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) and to identify a dose appropriate for use in a diabetes prevention study. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS—This multicenter, double-blind, randomized, parallel-group, fixed-dose study of 8 weeks’ duration was performed in a total of
The NorduGrid middleware, ARC, has integrated support for querying and registering to Data Indexing services such as the Globus Replica Catalog and Globus Replica Location Server. This support allows one to use these indexing services for for example brokering during jobsubmission, automatic registration of files and many other things. This integrated support is complemented by a set of command-li
There has been a great advance in our knowledge of the role that thrombophilic factors play in the risk of venous thromboembolic events (VTE). However, the effect of lifestyle factors on VTE has been inadequately explored in large scale studies of women. This cohort study comprised one thousand native Swedish women for each age year between 25 and 64 inclusive (total = 40 000) drawn from the South
