Fire load, the total thermal energy released by the combustion of a material, is an essential part of determining a building’s fire performance and the associated fire protection strategies. Elements in a structure are typically categorized into two types of fire loads: permanent and temporary. Permanent fire loads represent the combustible materials in the building envelope. With the advent of en
As of this moment humankind’s total energy use consists of 87% of non-renewable energy sources. The government of Sweden is aiming for 100% renewable energy system by the year of 2040. The city of Helsingborg is experiencing a solar panel expansion, the installed power increased with 139% from 2015 to 2016. The overall aim of this master thesis was to create a solar strategy for the municipality
Background Polypharmacy in the Swedish elderly population is currently a prioritised area of research with a focus on reducing the use of potentially inappropriate medications (PIMs). Multi-professional interventions have previously been tested for their ability to improve drug therapy in frail elderly patients. Objective This study aimed to assess a structured model for pharmacist-led medication
The increasing amount of renewable energy in the electrical grid comes with several challenges, of which overvoltage and congestion (overcurrents) are the subjects of this work. One flexible way of handling these problems is active management by some control system. There is a trade-off between simplicity when implementing the control system and the performance. In the project Active Network Manag
The bone marrow hematopoietic microenvironment (HME) plays a pivotal role in regulating normal and diseased hematopoiesis. However, the spatial organization of the human HME has not been thoroughly investigated yet. Therefore, we developed a three-dimensional (3D) immunofluorescence model to analyze changes in the cellular architecture in control and diseased bone marrows (BMs). BM biopsies from p
Objective: To investigate if the improved glucose tolerance previously observed at breakfast following an evening meal with boiled barley kernels derives from colonic events related to the fermentation of the elevated amounts of indigestible carbohydrates present and/or from the low-GI features. Subjects/Methods: Twenty healthy volunteers aged 19–30 years. Design: High-GI white wheat bread (WWB)
Evidence from cold regions in North America has shown that the performance of stormwater ponds differs between winter and summer. The pond hydraulics change seasonally, and winters have lowered removal efficiency due to a combination of an ice cover, cold water and de-icing salts. This study examines the function of the Backaslov stormwater pond under the more mild conditions of southern Sweden, w
A review was performed of eight previously performed investigations of environmental impacts from end-consumer food waste prevention. The overall aim of the study was to investigate the state of the art in these assessments, identify key factors which could explain seen variations in GWP-emission savings, and suggest methodological improvements leading to increased potentials for cross-study compa
Background: Cadmium (Cd) can cause renal damage and osteoporosis after high-level exposure. Recently such effects, including increased urinary excretion of calcium, have been shown also at low-level exposure, as measured by Cd in blood or urine. However, associations with kidney Cd have not been examined. The aim of this study was to explore the relation between kidney Cd and urinary calcium excre
BACKGROUND: In May 2023, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 no longer a public health emergency. Despite successful vaccination campaigns, vaccines provide limited protection against transmission. Since general testing has been abandoned in most countries, alternative population surveillance methods to assess SARS-CoV-2 exposure are needed.METHODS: N-antigen is a protein of the SARS-C
Hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) can induce oxidative stress, genomic instability, and epigenetic modifications. In occupational settings, Cr(VI)-exposed workers may also be exposed to other toxicants, such as elements besides Cr, and per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). However, research on the extent of these co-exposures and their combined effects remains limited. The objective of this study
Background: Paleolithic Diet Fraction (PDF) and Paleolithic Diet Score (PDS) are both measures of how closely a food intake conforms to a Paleolithic dietary pattern. PDF is calculated directly from an individual’s absolute food intake and PDS is an aggregated score based on an individual’s food intake relative to a population. Both are inversely associated with all-cause and cause-specific mortal
