With analysis of election data from 1970-2022, we employed both multiple regression and ridge regression to explore the following key variables: immigration, taxation, unemployment, inflation, poll performance, incumbency, margina

Power-to-X (PtX) is an emerging approach in decarbonizing industries hard to electrify, and is in many cases requiring stable hydrogen supply to maximize production. Hydrogen is produced via electrolysis and requires large amounts of electricity, which can be expensive, especially when considering highly fluctuating electricity prices. One solution in reducing electricity related costs is to integ

Children who are placed in foster care because of neglect or abuse have the right to maintain the relationship with their parents, as per the Swedish LVU law, though this is more often than not a complex feat to achieve. The Convention on the Rights of the Child states that children who are capable of forming their views shall be given the right to express those views freely in all matters affecti

Bioinformatiska verktyg för att hitta lungcancermutationer i RNA Lungcancer är idag den dödligaste typen av cancer, där 50% av patienterna diagnostiseras för sent. Om diagnosen kan ges i tid kan fler liv räddas. Kan analys av RNA vara lösningen på att diagnostisera fler patienter i tid? Inom cancer diagnostiken har främst DNA använts för att hitta mutationer i tumörvävnad. Ny forskning visar lovThis project has investigated tools that could be used for somatic (non-inherited) variant calling using RNA-sequence (RNA-seq) data from patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Identifying specific genetic variation causing growth of cancerous cells have been a major challenge within cancer research and diagnostics. Variant calling uses sequenced data to analyze differences in the genom

Kan laser upptäcka komplikationer efter kirurgi? Varje år genomgår hundratals patienter esofagektomi – en omfattande canceroperation där delar av matstrupen tas bort och återkopplas till mag-tarmkanalen. Men för många slutar operationen med allvarliga komplikationer. Vad kan vi göra för att förhindra detta? Att överleva en stor operation är bara början. För patienter som genomgått en esofagektomiThis study explores the application of laser-based techniques for measuring blood perfusion to predict anastomotic leaks (AL) following esophagectomy. ALs, a significant postoperative complication, are primarily associated with inadequate perfusion at the surgical site, leading to increased morbidity, mortality, and healthcare costs. Techniques such as Laser Doppler Flowmetry (LDF), Laser Speckle

På järnvägsstationer passerar dagligen många människor som pendlar till och från arbete eller skola och ofta sker byter mellan olika transportmedel. Vid dessa byten behöver oskyddade trafikanter (fotgängare, cyklister och elsparkcyklister) ofta korsa en väg vid ett övergångsställe. Beroende på övergångsställets reglering uppstår olika beteenden och konflikter. Oväntade beteenden hos oskyddade trafAt railway stations many people pass daily commuting to and from work or school, often switching between different forms of transportation. During the change of transportation, the unprotected road users (pedestrians, cyclists, and e-scooters) might need to cross a road at a crosswalk. Depending on the form om regulation of the crosswalk different behaviors and conflicts occurs. Unexpected behavio

Omreglering av anställningsvillkor har inte omfattats av LAS förrän vid införandet av 7 a-7 b §§ år 2022. Arbetstagaren gavs ett skydd vid hyvling som innebär omreglering till sänkt sysselsättningsgrad. Det finns fler anställningsvillkor som kan omregleras och som leder till ekonomisk förlust för arbetstagaren, såsom sänkt lön eller borttagning av förmåner. Uppsatsen kommer att utreda skälen till

The purpose of this study was to examine men’s and women’s experiences of honor-based violence through six podcast episodes and to identify any differences and similarities between the genders. The theoretical frameworks applied in this study to understand honor-based violence were intersectionality and Foucault’s theory of power. A purposeful selection was used to select six episodes in total. Al
