Trygghet i offentliga trafikmiljöer är en central aspekt av hållbar och inkluderande stadsplanering. Studien undersöker hur kvinnor och män upplever trygghet vid Helsingborg C, en plats som kännetecknas av hög genomströmning av människor, varierande ljusförhållanden och återkommande upplevelser av otrygghet. Syftet är att öka förståelsen för hur kön, tid på dygnet och miljömässiga faktorer samverkThis bachelor’s thesis explores how safety is experienced at Helsingborg Central Station (Helsingborg C) from a gender perspective. The aim is to analyse how women and men perceive safety in and around the station area and how these perceptions are influenced by both physical and social environmental factors. The study also seeks to identify which elements contribute most strongly to feelings of i

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Although the effects of 5-α-reductase inhibitors (5-ARIs) on prostate-specific antigen (PSA) have been well-studied, the effects on other kallikrein markers have not been firmly established. Accordingly, a statistical model based on blood measurements of four kallikreins-known commercially as the "4Kscore"-cannot be used for men taking 5-ARIs. We investigated how finaster

INTRODUCTION: Autoantibodies against insulin (IAA) are early appearing markers of autoimmunity against the pancreatic islet beta cells and predict progression to type 1 diabetes if additional islet autoantibodies also develop. It is still controversial if proinsulin rather than insulin is the primary autoantibody.METHODS: The aim of the present study was to compare the half-maximal concentration (

BACKGROUND/AIM: Determining the causation of an injury in living individuals is a key task for forensic pathologists. However, little is known about sex-based differences in injury characteristics. The study aims to examine sex-based differences in single stab injuries to the trunk among assault survivors, to potentially identify injury patterns that could aid forensic assessment and help in the m

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: BRCA1 and BRCA2 pathogenic germline variants (PGVs) are associated with higher risk of prostate cancer (PC). The IMPACT study evaluated the utility of targeted prostate-specific antigen (PSA) screening in BRCA1/BRCA2 PGV carriers. Here we report outcomes after five rounds of PSA screening in IMPACT.METHODS: Between 2005 and 2015, 3063 participants aged 40-69 yr (median 54

Under en inventering av djurlivet i Lunds universitets Botaniska trädgårds växthus påträffades i januari 1982 40 st olika arter. Av dessa var mer än hälften av utländskt ursprung och har sannolikt ursprungligen medföljt växtsändningar från andra växthus. Två gråsuggor (Armadillidium nasutum och Trichorhina monocellata) har troligtvis ej tidigare blivit funna i Sverige. Uppgifter ges om de påträffa

we propose to fully integrate EHRDs rights in the roadmap for phasing out fossil fuels with the aim to uphold a pace that is required to catalyse climate justice for the most affected peoples and territories. A phase-out fossil fuel roadmap should consider the central role they have in protecting life on Earth, safeguarding the climate and environment, thriving biodiversity and leading pathways to

How long do fungal hyphae persist in the environment? And how does this differ betweengroups and species of fungi? Despite growing knowledge of fungal contributions to decom-position and soil carbon cycles, surprisingly little is known about the turnover of mycelia:What happens to fungal hyphae over time? And how this impacts different fungi’s contribu-tion to carbon sequestration?In this study, w

Remanufacturing is a key strategy in the circular economy, enabling substantial product value retention. However, inconsistent definitions across standards and legislation hinder global trade, core recovery and market acceptance. This study examines how remanufacturing is defined in laws and standards, and how these definitions impact industry practices. Through a literature review of key existing

Denna uppsats undersöker den politiska teaterns roll och potential att skapa verklig samhällsförändring. Utifrån ett materialistisk perspektiv ställs frågan huruvida teatern, som primärt verkar i åskådarens medvetande, är begränsad till att enbart förändra tankesätt eller om den även kan vara ett direkt medel för konkret politisk och materiell förändring. Syftet är att kartlägga vår tids svårighet

Background Multimorbidity, the co-occurrence of two or more non-communicable diseases (NCDs), is common and has been linked to venous thromboembolism (VTE). Whether multimorbidity diagnosed in primary-care is associated with incident VTE remains unclear. We aimed to examine this association. Methods Multimorbidity was defined using Swedish primary-care data. Individuals without prior VTE were incl

PURPOSE: The systolic blood pressure (SBP) response to exercise reflects cardiovascular health, with both exaggerated and blunted responses linked to adverse outcomes. Prior studies relied typically on peak SBP or two-point slopes for evaluation. We aimed to identify distinct SBP responses from full times-series recorded during maximal, graded exercise and assess their clinical determinants and pr

BACKGROUND: Our aim was to explore the reasoning and experiences of women when offered a self-sampling HPV test.METHODS: This study implemented a qualitative study design and content analysis using an inductive approach. Data consisted of written narratives collected through open-ended questions from a total of 173 women. Women were included if they had been offered a self-sampling device since Se

The capacity for birds to adjust their breeding time to variation in spring temperature via plasticity is crucial for insectivorous passerines in temperate areas, particularly in a context of climate disruptions. Recent studies suggested that phenological plasticity varies in response to environmental change via urbanization. We investigated the effects of urbanization on laying date, its phenotyp
