Popular Abstract in English Globalization and new technologies in transportation and communication have opened the doors for partnerships beyond the national and regional borders, making business survival more complex than ever before. We can see more companies outsourcing different aspects of their business in order to focus on one or a few core competencies, which would potentially gain them morIn this dissertation, we discuss how buyers practice purchasing strategies in an asymmetric power situation favoring suppliers, and how their purchasing strategies practiced impact their purchasing power and buyer-supplier relationships. Organizations enter exchange relationships to access required resources not produced internally, and are exposed to uncertainty from not being able to fully contr

Bacterial infections spanning from local wound infections, affecting patients with non-healing leg ulcers, postoperative wounds or burns, to severe infections and sepsis, are significant medical problems. Today's anti-infective treatments do not address the excessive activation of inflammatory pathways during infection and sepsis, and resistance problems are increasing. Hence, there is a huge unmBacterial infections spanning from local wound infections, affecting patients with non-healing leg ulcers, postoperative wounds or burns, to severe infections and sepsis, are significant medical problems.

IMPORTANCE: Atrial fibrillation (AF), the most prevalent sustained arrhythmia, portends higher risk of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality, and is associated with quantifiable impairment in quality of life. While physical activity is widely recognized for its cardiovascular benefits, recent evidence challenges its role in the development of AF. OBSERVATIONS: Emerging data suggest a U-shaped rel

The aim of this article is to draw attention to the dangerous, indeed poisonous, nature of the current debates on immigration and multiculturalism in today’s ‘omniphobic’ Europe, plagued not only by a severe economic crisis, but also a more general normative crisis, a ‘crisis of values’ so to speak, which has been consistently overlooked or manipulated by politicians and academics alike, or reduce

This paper aims to explore how learning about Circular Economy (CE) may be facilitated through the use of the serious game In the Loop. Despite the growing literature base related to CE, academic reflection on education for a CE is currently limited. In the Loop was developed to provide an experiential learning situation for educating about material criticality and CE. This study reflects on the u

One excuse for not making use of the visual sources is the difficulty in interpreting them. Before the historian can even try to make valid use of an image, he has to know what he is looking for, when and for what purpose it was made, in what circumstances, current visual conventions, technical and other constraints.1 Thus, extracting information from visual sources and combining it with literary

Gruppen driver forskning kring mätning och behandling av svår kronisk andnöd (dyspné) samt behandling av kronisk andningssvikt. Gruppen har nära samarbete med ledande forskare nationellt och ett internationellt forskningsnätverk kring klinisk dyspnéforskning. Studier inkluderar epidemiologiska analyser, Cochrane meta-analyser, kliniska kohortstudier samt randomiserade kontrollerade behandlingsstudThe research group focuses on the mechanisms, measurement and treatment of severe chronic breathlessness (dyspnea) and management of chronic respiratory failure. The research is conducted in close collaboration with leading researchers nationally and an international research network. Studies include epidemiological analyses, Cochrane meta-analyses, clinical cohorts and randomized controlled trial

Enheten för psykiatrisk epidemiologi och folkhälsa studerar ämnesområden som exempelvis psykossjukdomar, suicidologi, beroendetillstånd och neuropsykiatriska tillstånd med klassiska och moderna epidemiologiska metoder. Dessa frågor belyses dels utifrån ett kliniskt perspektiv med traditionella frågeställningar gällande riskfaktorer, utfall, överlevnad och farmakoepidemiologi, dels utifrån ett folkThe Unit for Psychiatric Epidemiology and Public Health studies subject areas such as psychotic disorders, suicidology, substance use disorders, and neuropsychiatric conditions using classical and modern epidemiological methods. These issues are examined both from a clinical perspective, with traditional research questions regarding risk factors, outcomes, survival, and pharmacoepidemiology, and f

Forskargruppen bedriver forskning kring förutsättningar och rehabilitering för ett hälsosamt liv där rörelse och aktivitet är i fokus. Forskning som bedrivs i gruppen syftar också till att förbättra förståelsen för påverkan på människans strukturer, funktioner, aktiviteter och delaktighet i omgivande Iiv. Forskagruppens arbete omfattar hela kedjan från hälsopromotion till rehabilitering, genom heResearch within the group concerns conditions and rehabilitation for a healthy life, with a focus on movement and activity. Research within the group also aims to improve understanding of effects on human structure, functions, activities, and participation in society. Research within the group includes the line from health promotion to rehabilitation, throughout the lifespan. Other areas are work-

Med vår forskning vill vi förstå och främja människors psykiska hälsa, aktivitet och delaktighet och bidra till att människor kan leva ett så meningsfullt liv som möjligt och delta i samhället trots psykisk ohälsa. Att utveckla, utvärdera och implementera återhämtningsinriktade insatser som ger stöd i olika livssituationer och miljöer är därför centralt. Vi vänder oss till olika målgrupper såsomWith our research, we want to understand and promote persons’ mental health, activity and participation and as a result help them to live as meaningful lives as possible and participate in society despite mental ill health. Developing, evaluating and implementing recovery-oriented interventions that help in different life situations and in different environments is therefore critical. We address

AI och digitalisering är en snabbt växande del av utvecklingen av nästan alla ingenjörssystem och kommer att förändra samhället och industrin i grunden. Profilområdets spetskunskap kring teknologier, metoder, algoritmer och mjukvara för att möjliggöra robusta, säkra, effektiva och lärandebaserade system är helt nödvändig i samhällets digitala omställning.AI and digitalization are a rapidly growing part of the development of almost all engineering systems and will fundamentally change society and industry. The profile area's cutting-edge knowledge of technologies, methods, algorithms, and software to enable robust, secure, efficient, and learning-based systems is essential in society's digital transformation.

Based on the principle of Freedom of Association, sports traditionally hold a unique role in society with a significant level of autonomy. This autonomy has allowed Sports Governing Bodies to establish their own rules and regulatory frameworks with limited external interference and has led to the perception that the governance of sports operate outside the general legal society. Over time however,
