Reality isn’t what it appears to be. Contexts are not always clear and visible. People don’t always say what they really mean. And they don’t always mean what they say. When life is your stage manager, anything can happen. I often say, life is hard, my head is harder. Making documentaries is not for the faint-hearted.This PhD project explores creative processes and parallel realities in documentar
Background:Due to new legislation in 2011 and 2013, the Swedish public healthcare system has undergone change as regards incident reporting and supervision. Focus has turned to learning from adverse events and sharing this learning with actors within the system. The aim of this study was to explore with what underlying safety ontology adverse events in the incident reporting system are investigate
Building regulations in Sweden require that an energy calculation is done for every building to show that the building design meets the maximum specific energy use as outlined in the Swedish Building Code. The result of this energy calculation is always one number, for example a building might use 89 kWh/m2 year when the building regulation requires 90 kWh/m2 year. This level of reporting can lead
Functional gastrointestinal disorders constitute a set of gastrointestinal disorders with absence of obvious organic and physiological dysfunctions observed in clinical routine examinations. The functional disorders are divided into many subclasses, e.g., functional esophageal disorders and functional bowel disorders. The diagnoses are set when the patients fulfil the Rome IV criteria after a care
Bipolar disorder has long been associated with increased risks for suicidality; though factors associated with dying by suicide remain obscure. Here, we retrospectively examine the associations between the different phases of bipolar illness and other common comorbidities with death by suicide in the 120 days following each discharge for Swedes first admitted as inpatients for bipolar disorder dur
All growth‐critical perspectives have the common starting point that the ecological crisis and the increase in social inequality are basic features of high‐consumption capitalism and its spread from North America and Europe to the rest of the world. The common goal is thus to re‐embed productionand consumption patterns into planetary limits through a decrease in material and energy throughputs, pa
In relation to international obligations, under the Paris Climate Agreement and as a member state of the EU, Austria is expected to drastically cut carbon emissions over the coming years. In order to achieve this goal, measures to reduce emissions have to be taken in all sectors of the national economy. In this context it is interesting to note that to date it is widely unknown how much emissions
Geospatial information is indispensable for various spatially-informed analysis and decision-making, e.g. traffic analysis and built environment processes. Geospatial data often must be integrated for meaningful analysis, whereas such integration is challenging due to siloed data organization, semantic heterogeneity and multiple representation of geospatial data. Moreover, the visualization of geo
This paper contains a quantification and decision theoretical optimization of the posterior utilities for several options for monitoring campaigns on the particular case of fatigue life predictions of an orthotropic steel deck. The monitoring campaigns are defined by varying monitoring durations and phases. The decision analysis is performed with real data from the Structural Health Monitoring (SH
Recent advances in obtaining reduced representation libraries for next-generation sequencing permit phylogenomic analysis of species-rich, recently diverged taxa. In this study, we performed sequence capture with homemade PCR-generated probes to study diversification among closely related species in a large insect genus to examine the utility of this method. We reconstructed the phylogeny of Nepti
The Neuregulin-ErbB4 pathway plays a crucial role in brain development and constitutes one of the most biologically plausible signaling pathways implicated in schizophrenia and, to a lesser extent, in bipolar disorder (BP). However, recent genome-wide association analyses have not provided evidence for common variation in NRG1 or ERBB4 influencing schizophrenia or bipolar disorder susceptibility.
The literature on regional development increasingly recognizes that agency is an essential but understudied factor in processes of regional structural change. However, much like the fundamental debates in social sciences about agency and structure, work in this field has often remained theoretical. Investigating the role of agency in regional economic development, systematically and at the micro-l
At the invitation of professor Jan-Gunnar Sjölin, following an initial suggestion from doctoral candidate Fred Andersson, Takahiko iimura visited our department during December 1st to December 4th 2003. A selection of mr iimura's video- and media-works from ca 1970 to the present day were screened on the evenings of December 2nd and 3rd. The screenings were attended by a great number of students a
The traditional multiscale approach couples two models operating at different scales. An alternative modelling strategy, called peridynamics originally developed by [1], is to continualize the molecular dynamic models, thus replacing inhomogeneities present on smaller length scales by an enhanced continuum description on larger length scales resulting in a nonlocal reformulation of continuum mecha
Numerical simulations of 3D flow past two identical spheres which are held fixed relative to each other at different separation distances and angles (which describe the deviation from the centre line of the trailing particle) are carried out. Particle Re = 300 is used to investigate the dependency of drag and lift coefficients on the separation distances and the angles. The simulations are perform
This article asks what key concerns emerge from the way responsibility is framed in United Nations summit documents on the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) adopted in 2015. Our conceptual framework serves to make the study of SDG responsibility more systematic by distinguishing three main senses of responsibility: cause, obligation, and accountability. The framework structures our analysis of
Purpose: To report a family affected by familial exudative vitreoretinopathy (FEVR) in which more severe disease phenotypes segregated with digenic rather than monogenic variants in FEVR-related genes. Methods: Phenotype was documented with high-resolution imaging of retinal structure and wide-field fundus photography. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) of known genes involved in FEVR was performed.
Naturliga faror kan inträffa överallt på jorden. När en naturrisk inträffar kan detta leda till en stor inverkan på människor, miljö och samhälle för lång tid framöver. Naturliga faror klassas då som naturkatastrofer. Värst drabbade är utvecklingsländer, där ekonomin, infrastrukturen och de sociala skyddsnäten är sämre än i industriländer. Naturkatastrofer har ökat markant det senaste århundradet Natural hazards can occur anywhere. Natural hazards become natural disasters when they have great impact on people and environment. Developing countries are more affected than industrial countries. Natural disasters have increased in number the last century, mainly due to the following reasons: climate change, population increase, urbanisation as well as degradation of the environment. Crisis mana
This paper is designed to examine the validity of the CAPM model in the emerging markets. I took the Indian market to be the case in which we examine the applicability of this model and therefore I decided to perform the study on one of the biggest Indian markets; Bombay Stock Exchange. The SENSEX30 was chosen as the examined index and I performed the study on the 28 listed companies in the market
