Social economy organisations are attributed a major role in solving societal and environmental problems and in implementing social innovations in Europe. These organisations are private entities running economic activities whose main purpose is to provide goods and services to their members or the community at large, with profits coming second. Nevertheless, these organisations are not suffici
In line with the development of modern communication technology, computer-mediated-communication is playing a crucial role in how people interact and communicate. One forum in which such interaction can be conducted is the online professional social network LinkedIn. In this study we examine how entrepreneurs, conscious or unconsciously, make use of impression management strategies in a textual se
In the contemporary global context, the global focus on reducing environmental impacts in any formats has intensified. This study intends to assess the environmental impacts and life cycle costs associated with the A1-A5 stages (production and construction stages) of the Köping Port project and eight additional proposed scenarios. The Solidification/ Stabilization method along with the in-situ tec
Min kandidatuppsats fokuserar på att analysera vilka möjligheter det finns att förena vinstsyftet enligt 3 kap. 3 § aktiebolagslagen med hållbarhet. Både hållbarhet och vinstsyfte är viktiga aspekter. Det är svårt att kombinera de två aspekterna i ett aktiebolag då vinstgenerering är det man strävar efter, detta kan leda till kollision med hållbarhetsaspekter. I det andra kapitlet ligger fokuset pMy bachelor's thesis focuses on analyzing the possibilities of reconciling the profit motive according to Chapter 3, Section 3 of the Swedish Companies Act with sustainability. Both sustainability and profit motive are important aspects. It is difficult to combine the two aspects in a limited liability company when profit generation is the aim, which can lead to a collision with sustainability
In May 2023, the U.S. FDA advisors endorsed Pfizer’s pregnancy-administered vaccine (branded ABRYSVO) to protect infants from respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection. Vaccination can reduce the burden of RSV-related respiratory disease, with previous studies showing its substantial medical and financial burden in Jordan. However, pregnant women may exhibit hesitancy to get vaccinated due to co
Background: Currently available biomarkers for the early tissue process leading to joint damage in rheumatoid arthritis are insufficient and lack prognostic accuracy, possibly a result of variable activity of the disease over time. This study represents a novel approach to detect an altered activity of the disease process detected as increasing serum-COMP levels over a short time and whether this
Popular Abstract in Swedish Variabilitet i ett läkemedels farmakokinetiska (hur ett läkemedel omsätts i kroppen) och farmakodynamiska (vilken effekt ett läkemedel har) egenskaper kan resultera i att olika individer som erhållit samma dos av ett läkemedel får olika effekter av läkemedel. Biverkningar eller utebliven effekt kan innebära allvarliga konsekvenser för den enskilda individen. VariabiliteVariability in pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic parameters between individuals can be due to intrinsic and extrinsic factors. In this thesis three different areas regarding sources of variability have been investigated. 1. Formulation properties as an extrinsic source of variability. Lipophilic substances often have poor oral bioavailability and high inter- and intraindividual variability. High
Background: Little is known about whether the protective effect of marriage on alcohol use disorder (AUD) varies by cultural background. Aims: Using Swedish national data, we examined whether marriage is associated with a stronger reduction in AUD risk among Swedes of a Swedish background (i.e. those with two Swedish-born parents) compared to Swedes with a foreign background (i.e. one or two forei
Background: Experiments have shown improved cardiovascular stability in lambs if umbilical cord clamping is postponed until positive pressure ventilation is started. Studies on intact cord resuscitation on human term infants are sparse. The purpose of this study was to evaluate differences in clinical outcomes in non-breathing infants between groups, one where resuscitation is initiated with an in
Background: Endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) are xenobiotics with the ability to interfere with hormone action, even at low levels. Prior environmental epidemiology studies link numerous suspected EDCs, including phthalates and bisphenol A (BPA), to adverse neurodevelopmental outcomes. However, results for some chemicals were inconsistent and most assessed one chemical at a time. Objectives:
Background: As part of I-O Optimise, a multinational research platform providing real-world insights into the management of lung cancers, the SCAN-LEAF study aims to describe the epidemiology, clinical care and outcomes for pts with NSCLC in Scandinavia. We report initial Tx and OS for pts with NSCLC prior to the availability of immunotherapies in Sweden. Methods: The analysis includes all adult p
OBJECTIVES: To assess whether the triage model Sepsis Alert for Emergency Departments results in improved initial care of patients with severe infections. DESIGN: Interventional study comparing patient care before and after the start of a new triage model, including 90-day follow-up. SETTING: Eight emergency departments in Skåne County, Sweden. SUBJECTS: Patients with suspected severe infection. I
Biological effects of electromagnetic fields (EMF) on the blood‐brain barrier (BBB) can be studied in sensitive and specific models. In a previous investigation of the permeability of the blood‐brain barrier after exposure to the various EMF‐components of proton magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), we found that the exposure to MRI induced leakage of Evans Blue labeled proteins normally not passing t
This thesis explores how born-sustainable small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the fashion industry can balance and improve the implementation of sustainability and profitability. It develops a cross-cultural analysis, comparing Brazil and Scandinavia (namely Sweden and Denmark). A constructionist framework is adopted in order to analyse culture, sustainability, and profitability with a su
BACKGROUND: A previous study on mechanical complications after central venous catheterisation demonstrated differences in complication rates between male and female operators. The objective of this subgroup analysis was to further investigate these differences. The hypothesis was that differences in distribution of predefined variables between operator genders could be identified.METHODS: This was
PURPOSE: Several studies have indicated that broad genomic characterization of childhood cancer provides diagnostically and/or therapeutically relevant information in selected high-risk cases. However, the extent to which such characterization offers clinically actionable data in a prospective broadly inclusive setting remains largely unexplored.METHODS: We implemented prospective whole-genome seq
Background and purpose: Tamoxifen remains an important adjuvant treatment in premenopausal patients with hormone receptor-positive breast cancer. Thus, determination of hormone receptors is important. Here, we compare cytosol-based methods, immunohistochemistry (IHC), and gene expression (GEX) analysis for determining hormone receptor status in premenopausal breast cancer patients from a randomise
