Individuals can gain substantial benefits from collective actions.1,2,3,4,5,6,7 However, collective behaviors introduce new challenges, like coordinating actions, maintaining cohesion, and meeting the needs of different individuals. When making collective movements, leaders are typically thought to gain disproportionate benefits through the choice of more beneficial resources3 and/or earlier acces
Background: Previous reports from relatively small clinical cohorts have suggested that the clinical presentation of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) differs between men and women. Objective: We aimed to explore sex differences in clinical and polysomnographic features of OSA in a large nationwide registry. Methods: Participants from the ongoing Turkish Sleep Apnea Database (TURKAPNE) Study from 34 c
Background and aimMany patients with depressive disorders do not improve with first-line treatment with selective serotonin inhibitors (SSRIs). Adverse drug reactions (ADRs) are common. However, there are no reliable methods to predict treatment response.The general aim of this thesis was to investigate the role of peripheral serotonin and the polymorphic CYP2D6 gene as potential biomarkers of tre
Background: The impact of surgical specialization on long-term survival in patients undergoing emergent colon cancer resections remains unclear. Method: A retrospective analysis was conducted on all patients who underwent emergent colon cancer resections at a secondary care hospital between 2010 and 2020. The most senior surgeon performing the procedures was classified as colorectal surgeon (CS) o
Climate warming is expected to influence the prevalence of vector-transmitted parasites. Understanding the extent to which this is ongoing, or has already occurred, requires empirical data from populations monitored over long periods of time, but these studies are sparse. Further, vector-disease research involving human health is often influenced by disease control efforts that supersede natural t
Methanol can be produced renewably and used in compression ignition (CI) engines as a replacement for fossil diesel. However, methanol is a low cetane fuel, creating challenges in achieving stable operation, particularly at low load. One potential solution is through surface ignition via a glow plug. In this work, experiments were conducted on a methanol-fueled 2.1 L single cylinder engine instrum
Objective: To evaluate the causal effect of genetically predicted serum urate (SU) levels on the risk of overall and major site-specific cancers in individuals of European ancestry, using Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis. Method: Data from two population-based cohorts from southern Sweden, the Malmö Diet and Cancer Study (MDCS) and Malmö Preventive Project (MPP), and summary-statistics data f
We investigated integrative physiological responses to eupnoeic exercise (EX), rebreathing exercise (RB), dynamic apnoea (DA) and dynamic apnoea with cold-water face immersion (DAFI) in 20 healthy participants. Trials involved non-steady-state cycle exercise at 60 W for an average duration of 66 s. With increases in heart rate and stroke volume, EX and RB increased cardiac output compared with bas
The aim of this thesis is to design two patch antenna arrays for dual-frequency harmonic radar application, one for the transmitter and the other for the receiver. The arrays are used to track the Bogong moth that migrates from the countryside to the Australian Alps during spring. The tracking is done at the radar by operating the transmitter at one frequency and the receiver at twice the frequenc
Background: The pleiotropic action of ticagrelor, with effects in addition to platelet inhibition, has been shown to improve endothelial function in patients with coronary artery disease. These positive effects are possibly adenosine mediated. This study investigated the association of ticagrelor therapy and coronary artery flow reserve in survivors of myocardial infarction (MI). Methods: This was
Introduction: The main purpose of this study was to extract global values of oxygen extraction fraction (OEF) and cerebral metabolic rate of oxygen (CMRO2) in healthy volunteers, using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) phase maps. The repeatability of the method was evaluated, and the age dependences of OEF and CMRO2 were analyzed. Material and methods: Phase data were acquired using a 3T MRI scann
Background: The rapid increase in type 2 diabetes worldwide has mainly been attributed to lifestyle factors, including poor eating habits and physical inactivity. Type and quality of diet is a key factor in both prevention and treatment of type 2 diabetes. Aim: To investigate the association between diet quality and risk of type 2 diabetes. Methods and Subjects: This prospective study in the M
As mass timber construction gains momentum worldwide, cross-laminated timber (CLT) has emerged as an important material in the built environment. However, the combustible nature of wood presents challenges and fire safety concerns, and a key interest with respect to CLT is the adhesive bond line. CLT is commonly used in ceiling configuration, and current fire stability evaluations rely predominant
Efforts to regulate transnational corporations in the context of human rights are not new. They traced back to the early 1970s, when the United Nations first initiated attempts to study the impact of transnational corporations on the international development process and proposed a United Nations Code of Conduct on Transnational Corporations, an initiative that ultimately stalled. A renewed attemp
This thesis presents a complete digital back-end implementation of a PN-dither least-mean-squares (LMS) background calibration scheme for a 12-bit, 500 MS/s pipeline analog-to-digital converter (ADC). The target converter, designed by a parallel analog project, comprises four 3-bit stages and a 4-bit final flash stage; its actual inter-stage gains depart substantially from their nominal values, re
Background: Polygenic risk scores (PRSs) strongly discriminate for prostate cancer risk at the population level. The role of these genetic scores in determining prostate cancer survival is unclear, potentially due to methodological issues. Methods: We included 19,607 men from the Malmö Diet and Cancer Study (MDCS) and the Health Professionals Follow-up Study (HPFS) and analyzed 20-year incidence a
Bakgrund: Inom läraryrket utgör stillasittandet en stor del av arbetsdagen, en riskfaktor som kan påverka den fysiska och psykiska hälsan negativt. Självskattningsfrågor är ett kostnadseffektivt sätt att skatta stillasittande. För att kunna dra tillförlitliga slutsatser gällande en persons stillasittande från självskattningsfrågor krävs det att dessa är valida. Syfte: Syftet med undersökningen var
Lifestyle modifications could be crucial in preventing and managing type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and cardiovascular diseases (CVD), including diet and postprandial glycaemic control. Previous studies on the effects of polar lipids (PLs) on postprandial metabolic responses at Lund University have shown conflicting results. To reconcile these findings and contribute to the existing literature, th
