My thesis ’’Responsibility to create sustainability – a concept analysis of responsibility in the sustainability reports of the Swedish fashion industry’’, investigates Hennes & Mauritz and Filippa Ks view of the concept responsibility in sustainability reports, be- fore and after the adoption of The Sustainable development goals. The purpose of this study is to uncover if the enterprises view

Syfte: Huvudsyftet med studien var att undersöka den phonicsbaserade lärappen GraphoLearns effekter på avkodningsförmågan hos svensktalande barn i tidig läsutveckling. Sekundärt var syftet att undersöka huruvida träning med GraphoLearn kan påverka hjärnstruktur. Studien kan betraktas som en pilotstudie för ett större pågående projekt. Metod: Fjorton deltagare i åldrarna 6 till 7 år inkluderades. S

I denna uppsats står rädsla för att tala i fokus. Talrädsla belyses med retorikämnet som grund, och studien tar avstamp i den svenska gymnasieskolan. Syftet med studien är att ta fram ett handfast material för hur svensklärare på gymnasieskolan kan arbeta med talrädda elever. För att uppnå syftet genomförs en litteraturstudie, där handböcker som behandlar området talrädsla studeras. I dessa handböIn this study, language anxiety is in focus. Language anxiety is studied with the subject of rhetoric as a basis, and the study is based on the Swedish upper secondary school. The aim of the study is to produce a solid material for how Swedish teachers at upper secondary school can work with students with language anxiety. In order to achieve this purpose, a literature study is carried out, in whi

BackgroundDietary shift is necessary for improving public health, mitigating climate change, and achieving the Sustainable Development Goals. Adaption of climate-friendly diets might prevent chronic diseases and reduce mortality; however, consuming diets with a low climate impact have been suggested to increase risk of some micronutrient deficiencies.ObjectivesThis study aimed to examine whether s

The presence of microplastics (MPs) in water represents a current problem for marine life and a future serious issue for human health. This is pushing towards new approaches for the removal of MPs and, hence, their characterization and evaluation, which up to now has represented a limit for tentative procedures for their degradation. Herein, we reported on a new facile, in situ and non-destructive

Background: Regular monitoring of healthcare quality and equity is crucial for informing decision-makers and clinicians. This study explores the application of generative AI, more specifically large language models (LLMs), to facilitate standardized monitoring of healthcare quality using the established framework Analysis of Individual Heterogeneity and Discriminatory Accuracy (AIHDA). The study i

As the field of metal halide perovskites matures, a range of compositionally different perovskite films has found a place in efficient optoelectronic devices. These films feature variable local structural stability, carrier diffusion, and recombination, while there is still a lack of easy-to-implement generic protocols for high-throughput characterization of these variable properties. Correlation

Combining multiple III-V materials into axial nanowire heterostructures has enabled the fabrication of custom nanowire-based devices useful for a wide range of applications. However, our ability to form axial heterostructures between arbitrary combinations of III-V compounds is impeded by a lack of information on the dynamics of the heterojunction formation process, often resulting in suboptimal h

RNA modifying enzymes play a pivotal role in reshaping gene expression programs in response to diverse intracellular and extracellular cues, thereby maintaining cellular homeostasis. When dysregulated, these enzymes are increasingly implicated in the onset and progression of various diseases. While traditionally recognised for their catalytic functions, mounting evidence suggests that many RNA mod

We investigated the exciton transfer dynamics in photosynthetic light-harvesting complex 2 (LH2) coupled to an optical microcavity. Using computational simulations based on Redfield theory, we analyzed how microcavity coupling influences energy relaxation and transfer within and between LH2 aggregates. Our results show that the exciton transfer rate between B850 rings follows a square dependence o

Majoriteten av världens extremt fattiga bor i rurala områden och 300 miljoner av dem i Indien och Kina. Trots att länderna kommit en bit på vägen i sin strukturella omvandling arbetar fortfarande runt hälften av befolkningen på landsbygden inom jordbruket. De direkta och indirekta effekterna som den primära sektorn skapar har visat sig viktiga av olika anledningar. Hur detta kommer sig undersöks n

En uppskattning på en fjärdedel av all våld som sker i nära relationer anmäls till polisen. Våld i nära relationer är komplex i sin natur som i sin tur orsakar ett omfattande mörkertal. Första gången en kvinna utsätts för våld tror hon att det är en engångsföreteelse. Efter ett antal upprepade våldshandlingar förskjuts hennes gränser och hennes verklighet cirkulerar kring mannens verklighet. Hon iAn estimate around a quarter of victims by domestic violence is reported to the police. Violence in intimate relationships has a complex nature that causes substantial number of unrecorded cases. The first time a woman is subjected to violence, she thinks it is a one-time occurrence. After a number of repeated acts of violence, her boundaries shift and her reality revolves around the man's rea

This paper presents the outcomes of an applied cultural study carried out during spring semester 2010 with more than 10 Chinese female postgraduate students in Swedish universities. The aims of this research were to investigate Chinese female postgraduates’ decision-making process, to understand university lives in Sweden with the main focus on their learning experiences and social activities, and

BACKGROUND: Multidrug resistant Acinetobacter baumannii remains a global concern with its ability to adhere, disperse and sustain in areas involving suboptimal infection control measures, particularly in war areas. In this study we aimed to evaluate the susceptibility profiles, molecular epidemiology and pathogenesis of A. baumannii isolates from conflict zones in Ukraine.METHODS: A. baumannii wou

Ultrasmooth solution-processable quasi-2D perovskite thin films are of critical importance for many optoelectronic devices. In this work, we fabricated an ultrasmooth intermediate-phase free quasi-2D (PEA)2(FA)n−1PbnBr3n+1 perovskite film by using antisolvents with different polarities and boiling points to engineer the crystallization process. The XRD patterns of the perovskite powder showed that

The construction of heterojunctions between catalysts and cocatalysts is a widely recognized strategy to enhance catalytic activity. The precise placement of cocatalysts is widely understood to optimize charge transfer pathways and catalytic active sites. In this study, we demonstrate that site-selective decoration on an anisotropic catalyst, achieved by modulating solvent polarity and precursor r

The new ACR/EULAR classification criteria for APS differ from the previous Sydney criteria by incorporating a broader range of clinical manifestations beyond venous/arterial thromboembolism and obstetric complications. These include microvascular disease, heart valve disease and thrombocytopenia. We applied both classification systems to a cohort of 139 individuals diagnosed with primary APS in So

BACKGROUND: To investigate the effects of different types of parental health status on child development and health, valid parental distress measurement instruments are needed. The aim was to assess the psychometric measurement properties of the 21-item Depression Anxiety Stress Scales (DASS-21) used during the postnatal year in community samples of Swedish mothers and fathers.METHODS: Data were c

Critical-sized bone defects remain a significant unmet clinical need, with > 500,000 reconstructive procedures performed annually in the United States and Europe and associated costs exceeding US$3 billion. Autologous bone grafting—the current gold standard—suffers from limited harvest volume and donor-site morbidity, whereas allografts show variable integration and carry immunological and infecti
