The prevalence of metabolic diseases such as type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is rapidly increasing all over the world. Frequent episodes of elevated postprandial blood glucose have been associated with oxidative stress and subclinical inflammation, and the importance of a tight glycaemic control has been identified as an important factor to maintain health and prevent T2DM, obesity and cardiovascuThe prevalence of metabolic diseases such as type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is rapidly increasing all over the world.

Compensational voting refers to when voters cast a vote for a more extreme party than they prefer, in order to push policies closer to an ideal point. This article develops the idea of compensational voting in regard to pre-electoral coalition signals and polling trends. The argument is that a significant share of voters consider the relative strength of the parties in their preferred pre-electora

Self-compassion has not yet been studied in younger children. The aim of this study was to explore self-compassion in children between 10-13 years of age and examine how self-compassion is related to well-being and social perspective-taking. In addition we wanted to explore possible age or sex differences in self-compassion. The participants consisted of 228 children from two elementary schools in

AbstractEyestrain is a common issue when performing visually demanding work, often accompanied by neck and shoulder strain, as well as visual problems such as dim vision. The aim of this paper is to investigate the association between eyestrain and musculoskeletal strain, as well as the association between eyestrain and visual symptoms. Two regression analyses were conducted on subjective ratings Eyestrain is a common issue when performing visually demanding work, often accompanied by neck and shoulder strain, as well as visual problems such as dim vision.

This essay studies the Swedish law on dangerous asocial behaviour, lagen om åtgärder mot samhällsfarlig asocialitet (SFS 1964:450). The law was passed during a period of time in Swedish social political history characterized by a growing social state and a greater focus on individual rights than before.

ABSTRACT Background: In the growing body of knowledge on how human environment impacts population health, the transport sector is observed to occupy strategic position. However, the transport corridors equally serve as sources of socio-economic challenges. Such is the case of the transport sector’s contribution to the HIV/AIDS epidemic. In this respect, truckers are observed to carry a disproporti

Sustainability transition research investigates why the necessary change towards more sustainable patterns of consumption and production has not yet been achieved and how it can be accelerated. Taking into account the complexity of the globalised dynamics underlying today's sustainability challenges, it has been suggested that the existence of global regimes limits the possibilities for change

The last century has been a turbulent period in Cambodia, yet in the recent decades it has emerged from conflicts and humanitarian crises and become one of the world’s fastest-growing economies. This transformation was enabled in large part by foreign aid (ODA) and foreign direct investment (FDI). This thesis analyses the mechanisms by which ODA and FDI influenced the economy individually and in c

Materialvariation i gråjärn diskuteras vanligtvis utifrån metallurgi eller bearbetbarhet, medan dess konsekvenser för produktionsflödet och styckkostnaden är mindre systematiskt karaktäriserade. Detta examensarbete undersöker hur sammansättningsvariation i gråjärn propagerar genom bearbetningsrespons till produktionssystemets beteende, och kvantifierar de resulterande ekonomiska konsekvenserna perMaterial variability in grey cast iron is usually discussed in terms of metallurgy or machinability, while its consequences for production-flow behaviour and per-part economics are less systematically characterised. This thesis investigates how compositional variability in grey cast iron propagates through machining response into production-system behaviour, and quantifies the resulting per-part e

In early 2026, the European Union (EU) adopted the Omnibus I proposal to simplify the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) by reducing reporting burdens and enhancing competitiveness. However, it has been criticised for weakening sustainability ambitions and increasing uncertainty about future sustainability reporting. This thesis examines how sustainability professionals percei

Co-production, as a mechanism with collaborative and voluntary nature within the service-oriented logic framework, presents different characteristics in the event of system collapse. When the service infrastructure fails, if the authorities withdraw from the frontline, leaving a gap that disrupts the normal contracts of services.

Vegetation fire is one of the naturally occurring disturbances within the Earth system, changing vegetation dynamics and modulating carbon storage in the terrestrial biosphere. While fires are essential to many ecosystems, fire dynamics have been increasingly shaped by human actions since the late eighteenth century. The main drivers behind those changes are climate change and direct human activit

Purpose: Right ventricular (RV) dysfunction is the key prognostic factor in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Progression to RV failure involves dilatation, systolic and diastolic impairment, fibrosis, and metabolic changes. Lung transplantation (LTx) normalizes RV afterload, but the extent of recovery and its relation to immunosuppressive therapy remain unclear. We aimed to assess RV functio

Around the 150th anniversary in 1998, historical research showed new interest for the wave of revolutions that swept across Europe in 1848. This research focused on providing a new European frame of interpretation for the events in 1848, questioning the exclusive national historiographical traditions of European history, a field of study already formed by the works of Jean-Baptiste Duroselle in 19
