Background: Obesity is a chronic disease linked to over 200 health conditions, reduced quality of life, and increased mortality. Despite the availability of multimodal treatments, there is a lack of standardised, patient-centred outcome measures to effectively assess and improve clinical care. This project aimed to define a core set of standardised outcome measures for adults with obesity, incorpo
A biorefinery can operate with various plant materials as feed stock, (in contrast to fossil-based oil refineries). It has been defined by the International Energy Agency, Task 42, as “the sustainable processing of biomass into a spectrum of marketable bio-based products (chemicals, materials) and bioenergy (biofuels, power, heat)”. One of the challenges in operating large-scale facilities is that
In pristine Sphagnum-dominated peatlands, (di)nitrogen (N2) fixing (diazotrophic) microbial communities associated with Sphagnum mosses contribute substantially to the total nitrogen input, increasing carbon sequestration. The rates of symbiotic nitrogen fixation reported for Sphagnum peatlands, are, however, highly variable, and experimental work on regulating factors that can mechanistically exp
Organic farming may contribute substantially to future agricultural production worldwide by improving soil quality and pest control, thereby reducing environmental impacts of conventional farming. We investigated in a comprehensive way soil chemical, as well as below and aboveground biological parameters of two organic and two conventional wheat farming systems that primarily differed in fertiliza
Popular Abstract in Swedish See attachment in related materialThe combustion engine is today the dominant technology for transportation of goods and people world-wide. Concerns for global warming, toxic exhaust emissions, as well as cost and availability of fuel have in recent years created incentives for technological evolution of combustion engines. More sophisticated engine instrumentation with additional degrees of freedom has been added to the engine de
This thesis is based on three different projects: 1) the epitaxial growth of nanowires using chemical beam epitaxy, 2) the study of electron transport through quantum dots and multiple quantum dots in nanowires at low temperature, and 3) the development of wrap gated nanowire field effect transistors. In the first part, a method of studying the diffusion of the source material on the substrate su
“International Msc Educational Programme in Environmental Management and Modelling” (GeoNetC) is a European Commission funded project under ERASMUS+: Higher Education – International Capacity Building programme (Project No 561967-EPP-1-2015-1-SE-EPPKA2-CBHE-JP). It began in October 2015 and ended in October 2018. Initiated by the Lund University and partners from the Middle East countries, the Geo
Popular Abstract in Swedish Ett beräkningsprogram, "FREIA", lämpligt för industriell brandriskanalys presenteras. Programmet beräknar skada på människor inom och utom en byggnad på grund av en brand eller ett utsläpp av farligt gods. För några av de i riskanalysen ingående momenten har ytterligare forskning utförts. Dessa områden är: Detektion, Släckmedel samt Brännskada på människa. Det är i dagA tool suitable for conducting industrial fire and explosion hazard analysis is presented, together with an identification of weak links in the hazard evaluation chain. For some of the weak links additional research has been carried out. The tool, "FREIA", evaluates the consequences for humans and components due to fires and accidental releases indoors and outdoors using established engineering m
Background. Bioincompatible glucose degradation products (GDPs) in fluids for peritoneal dialysis (PD) develop during sterilization and storage. Their biological activity has successfully been monitored through the use of various in vitro methods but their molecular and chemical nature is less well understood. Many GDPs are highly reactive carbonyl compounds. Although some of the identified GDPs a
Combustion of fuel in diesel engines emits substances harmful to the environment such as soot. These emissions can be reduced by either in-cylinder treatments or after-treatments. One of the common in-cylinder treatments is multiple-injection, which divides a single fuel injection to multiple smaller injections. There are many open questions on the physical processes of the ignition, combustion a
STUDY QUESTION Is male factor infertility associated with an increased risk of developing diabetes? SUMMARY ANSWER The study provides evidence that male factor infertility may predict later occurrence of diabetes mellitus with the risk being related to the severity of the underlying fertility problem. WHAT IS KNOWN ALREADY Previous cross-sectional studies have shown an increased prevalence of como
Background: Germ cell tumor patients with intermediate prognosis (IPGCT) according to the IGCCCG classification represent a heterogeneous group exhibiting a variety of clinical features. We established a registry to identify prognostic markers to further characterize IPGCT. Methods: A retrospective observational study was performed. Eligibility criteria were intermediate prognosis according to IG
By studying different types of ovens, both new and old I created a suggestion for an interface applicable to future ovens in the IKEA oven range. In order to create interactive appliances with the advanced technology existing today I believe we have to look back. The complex possibilities created by the availability of LED and touchscreens have made the daily cooking harder for “the many people”.
Multi-storey buildings constructed in timber have become more common in recent years. A reason for this lies in the growing interest for sustainable building, where timber is seen as a particularly interesting alternative. As efforts have been made to improve the heat insulation in buildings, the energy consumption from manufacturing materials and from constructing buildings, referred to as embodi

Stora mängder koldioxidutsläpp från stora infrastrukturprojekt är en av de mest angelägna utmaningarna inom dagens bygg- och anläggningsbransch, där klimatbelastande material ofta används i stora mängder. Markstabilisering är en beprövad teknik för att förbättra bärigheten hos svaga jordar och erbjuder både tids- och kostnadseffektiva lösningar. Trots dess fördelar är metoden förknippad med betydaLarge-scale carbon dioxide emissions from major infrastructure projects constitute one of the most pressing challenges within the contemporary construction and civil engineering sector, where climate-intensive materials are often used in considerable quantities. Soil stabilization is a proven technique for enhancing the bearing capacity of weak soils and offers both time- and cost-effective soluti
This thesis examines how digital-ready regulatory design shapes the operationalisation of human rights due diligence (HRDD) within EU sustainability regulation. It focuses on the growing integration of digital and informational infrastructures into legal frameworks governing sustainability reporting, traceability, monitoring, and corporate due diligence. More specifically, the thesis analyses how
Wildfire observations are increasingly important as changing wildfire regimes globally affect societies and ecosystems. Wildfire behaviour, comprising the way that wildfires spread through the landscape, connects wildfire to its physical controls and has been shown to predict other wildfire characteristics. However, observations of wildfire behaviour are limited due to the spatial and temporal res
Microvias are key enablers of next-generation high-speed and high-density electronic products. However, their signal-integrity performance can be affected by manufacturing-induced non-idealities, including tapered sidewalls caused by laser drilling and positional staggering caused by fabrication tolerances. This thesis investigates the impact of microvia vertical geometry and manufacturing-induced
