AIM: To study to what extent tumor-specific treatment (chemo- or radiotherapy) was given during the last 30 days in life and to examine how many of the patients were referred to a specialized palliative care unit (PCU), at a low-resource governmental hospital in India.PATIENTS AND METHODS: Medical records of adult cancer patients deceased between April 1 and May 31 in 2016, and pediatric cancer pa

Background: This cross-sectional study examined nationwide real-world associations between anti-inflammatory agent fills and suicide-related death rates in 20–24-year-olds across the 21 Swedish regions during 2006–2021. Methods: Nationwide Swedish registers were used to compare regional year-wise suicide-related mortality (SRM) and dispensations for anti-inflammatory agents (ATC-code: M01) in 20–2

Open science and collaboration are necessary to facilitate the advancement of Parkinson’s disease (PD) research. Hackathons are collaborative events that bring together people with different skill sets and backgrounds to generate resources and creative solutions to problems. These events can be used as training and networking opportunities, thus we coordinated a virtual 3-day hackathon event, duri

Both numerical simulations and experimental measurements of small scale spontaneous ignition with different biomass fuels have been performed. In the experiments, temperature history was monitored at five different locations inside the fuel bed. The measured temperature history was used for validation of comprehensive threedimensional computer simulations which were carried out using a parallel fi

Forty years ago, Viterbi published upper bounds on both the first error event (burst error) and bit error probabilities for Viterbi decoding of convolutional codes. These bounds were derived using a signal flow chart technique for convolutional encoders. In 1995, Best et al. published a formula for the exact bit error probability for Viterbi decoding of the rate R=1/2, memory m=1 convolutional enc

This thesis offers a detailed structural account of a full range of grammatical markers available for the expression of modality in Japanese. Twenty modal expressions are systematically analyzed in the context of a Western typological approach, with special attention being paid to the issue of subjectivity, in the spirit of the indigenous grammatical tradition. The approach is a distributional one

In a labor market increasingly defined by global competition, technological advancements and the need for organizational agility, the Swedish Co-Determination Act (Medbestämmandelagen, MBL) plays a pivotal role in balancing employers’ need for flexibility with employees’ right to influence decisions affecting their work conditions. Section 11 of MBL, which regulates the employer’s duty to negotiat

This essay examines the impact of postal voting on Finnish expatriates living in Sweden, focusing on their perspectives on the reform as a method to increase voter turnout. The Finnish societal structure is deeply grounded in democracy and human rights. However, voter turnout among Finns, especially those living abroad, remains low despite their rights to participate in their homeland's politi

Background Lifecycles of electronics are decreasing, whereas companies with long life product such as the automotive and defence industry is increasing electrification in their products. Consequently, the mismatch in lifecycles between the electronics industry and Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs), with long life products, requires a solid obsolescence management process, to mitigate and res

I Sverige lever tyvärr många barn i hem där uppgifter om våld förekommer. Att umgänge sker mellan ett barn och en våldsutövande förälder riskerar att få allvarliga konsekvenser och är en problematik som existerar bland annat i och med utformningen av lagstiftningen. Därav har regeringen 2025 infört ett per-spektivskifte i föräldrabalken och gjort flertalet lagändringar, en sådan är ut-formningen aIn Sweden many children live in homes where they are at risk of violence from an abusive parent. A relationship that includes direct contact with a vio-lent parent poses a risk of damaging consequences for the child and is an is-sue that exists due to, among other things, the wording of the legislation. Therefore, in 2025 the government introduced a shift in perspective in the Swedish Parental Cod

This study examines how different age compositions within a football squad affect a club’s sporting performance and financial development over time. Five squad versions with systematically varied proportions of young and older players were simulated in the game Football Manager 2024™. Each version was followed over ten seasons, resulting in a total of 25 simulations (five repetitions per version).

Residential segregation is a geographical expression of inequality. The aim of this thesis is to examine how segregation has been represented as a problem in Swedish politics in recent years. My objects of study are two budget proposals, by Stefan Löfven (S) (2021) and Ulf Kristersson (M) (2022) respectively. I have made a poststructural policy analysis using Carol Bacchis method “What's the p

Production of building materials is connected to a great deal of environmental degradation, and demand for materials is expected to increase. Currently, the construction industry is responsible for 23 % of the global GHG emissions, 40 % of the raw materials consumed globally, and 32 % of the waste generated in Europe. With urbanization and an increasing population, more buildings are needed in the

Worldwide inequality in the circulation of vaccines during the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic re-ignited the ever-existing turmoil between rich, developed nations and poor, developing nations on the role of intellectual property (IP) against the fundamental right to health. The World Trade Organization (WTO) and the World Health Organization (WHO) contribute to making medicinal products and dia

The concrete sector is a major contributor to global greenhouse gas emissions; consumes substantial amounts of natural resources and serves as a significant source of global waste. The Circular Economy approach has been put forward as the solution to these environmental issues, but the overall effectiveness of the approach has been called into question by existing research. The aim of this thesis

Bedrägerier genom social manipulation har under de senaste åren ökat markant och medför betydande förluster för bankkunder. Lag (2010:751) om betaltjänster (betaltjänstlagen) förutsätter att en transaktion är obehörig för att huvudregeln i 5 a kap. 1 § om återställande ska anses tillämplig, och kunden har möjlighet att få tillbaka det förlorade beloppet. Enligt praxis från Allmänna reklamationsnämBank fraud based on social engineering, where victims are persuaded to authorise the payment themselves, has risen sharply in recent years, causing substantial losses for customers. Under the Swedish Payment Services Act (2010:751), the restitution rule in Chapter 5a Section 1 applies only where the payment is regarded as an unauthorised transaction. Current practice of the Swedish National Board

Home care has been associated with time pressure and extensive waiting times, affecting care users’ ability to manage their daily activities. In 2023, one Swedish municipality started offering ‘video visits’ to complement home visits. However, little is known about the implications of this type of digital technology for care users’ waiting experiences.
