Denna kunskapssammanställning beskriver hur hälsoskadlig värme kan uppstå inomhus, hur den kan identifieras och vilka åtgärder som kan vidtas med fokus på fastighetsägarens ansvar. Sammanställningen är begränsad till befintliga byggnader i Sverige och inkluderar skolor, äldreboenden, lägenheter, förskolor och kontor som är icke-industriella (utan industriella processer som producerar värme). Den pThis literature review describes how heat stress can develop indoors, how it can be identified, and what actions can be taken, with a focus on property owner’s responsibilities. The review is limited to existing buildings in Sweden and includes schools, retirement homes, apartments, preschools, and non-industrial offices (those without industrial processes that produce heat). The expected climate

Denna avhandling är en sammanläggningsavhandling som består av tre enskilda forskningsartiklar som undersöker om och hur de inflytelserika åren, negativa händelser och kollektiva kriser påverkar social tillit – tron att dom flesta människor går att lita på. Trots det omfattande vetenskapliga intresset för social tillit, baseras större delen av tidigare forskning om hur social tillit formas över liThis dissertation is a compilation thesis comprised of three individual research articles that explore whether and how the impressionable years, detrimental events and collective crises predict social trust – the belief that most people can be trusted. Despite the widespread scholarly interest in social trust, most previous research in the formation of social trust over the life-course is based on

Background: The incidence of lower urinary tract infection (LUTI) in men visiting primary health care (PHC) is low. Hence, GPs do not diagnose and treat men with LUTI very often. Previous studies have shown that adherence to treatment guidelines regarding LUTI in men is low. There is limited knowledge concerning why guidelines are not adhered to.Aim: To gain knowledge on GPs’ experiences and conceBackground: The incidence of lower urinary tract infection (LUTI) in men visiting primary healthcare (PHC) is low.

För snart ett decennium sedan startade en intensiv debatt om flygets klimatpåverkani svenska medier. I dess kölvatten har en social rörelse för minskat flygresande tagitform – flygfrittrörelsen. Den består av individer och organisationer som tillsammansengagerar sig för minskat flygresande, dels genom att delta i kampanjer och annatpåverkansarbete, och dels genom att själva avstå flygresande.Min aThe need for demand-side climate solutions is increasingly recognized in science and society. Such solutions imply that demand for goods and services is targeted either via changes in the use of infrastructure and technology or via cultural changes in consumption and lifestyle among the global affluent. In this thesis, I explore how to enable cultural change around affluent overconsumption through

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to explore how a visual perspective can be applied to strategic communication research. First, the term visual communication will be examined from various perspectives with an attempt to develop a foundation for this new academic territory. Second, this study summarises how visual approaches are applied in strategic communication research during 2005-2015, this

This article offers a moral and logical critique of human rights minimalism, by which is meant an account that restricts human rights to a level of sufficiency above or beyond which inequalities have no moral relevance, and which makes duties prior to rights, such that rights are dependent on assumed or actual institutional capacities.

The urban cemetery is a built green environment that is both a place of death, belonging to the bereaved and their rituals of care and remembrance, and a recreational space, where people rest, walk their dog, jog, reflect in silence, or just pass through. Urban cemeteries and urban parks share some features and uses in that respect, but they also have very different meanings and functions.

Teknikutvecklingen inom e-hälsoområdet möjliggör ständigt nya och mer avancerade arbetssätt för att övervaka och vårda patienter digitalt. Vården sker då genom kontinuerlig övervakning av patientens hälsa via digitalt överförda data och kommunikation mellan vårdpersonal och patient där feedback och rekommendationer skräddarsys efter patientens behov och tillstånd. Denna typ av digital vård är ett

When Sweden entered NATO in 2024, 200 years of alliance-freedom was upheaved. Article 5 of the North Atlantic Treaty states that an attack on any of the allied states is to be considered an attack against them all, which means that Swedish soldiers may be deployed in combat on foreign soil. Given that the Swedish Armed Forces have previously only been concerned with protecting their own borders, t

The final day of the conference opened with Albin Thörn Cleland’s presentation, “Hidden Choral Stimuli: The Role of Accent in Aristophanes’ Refrains”. His paper examined the interplay of pitch accent, metre and musical melody across metrically identical refrains in pre-Hellenistic Ancient Greek lyric poetry, an aspect that has long remained relatively obscure and misunderstood. Building on Conser

In probability theory, the assumption of independence between consecutive events is strong. However, when analyzing empirical data, this assumption is often weak or violated. This thesis investigates whether extreme negative daily returns in stock indices occur independently over time. To address this question, self-exciting Hawkes models are applied to extreme negative returns in two stock indice

This thesis explores the relationship between the position, function and semantics of the German particle "also" (?so?). Traditionally, "also" is classified as a conjunctional adverb because it can fill the position in front of the finite verb in the German clause, the so-called "Vorfeld" (?pre-field?). In this position, it has a meaning similar to that of a conjunction but a distribution similar

Popular Abstract in Swedish Hur kan man förklara vardagligt tänkande med de kognitiva teorier som finns tillhands idag? Ofta är dessa teorier konstruerade för att kunna förutsäga beteende under kontrollerade omständigheter, som i ett laboratorium. Å andra sidan är det snarare flexibilitet och improvisation som kännetecknar det vardagliga tänkandet. I avhandlingen försöker jag ta reda pa vad man måHow well can we explain natural occurrences of cognitive behaviours given the theoretical frameworks available to us today? The thesis explores what has to be assumed in cognitive theory in order to provide such an explanation, in contrast to being able to predict behaviour under controlled circumstances. The behaviours considered are all of the type described as involving higher level cognition

Popular Abstract in Swedish Papillomvirus (PV) är små virus som förmodligen infekterar alla däggdjur samt fåglar. De papillomvirus som infekterar människa kallas humant papillomvirus (HPV) och kan infektera antingen huden eller slemhinnor. Att livmoderhalscancer orsakas av bestående infektion med HPV har varit känt länge. Man har länge också misstänkt att HPV-infektioner i huden kan orsaka icke-meThe causal relationship between persistent genital infections with human papillomavirus (HPV) and development of cervical cancer is well established. In contrast, the significance of infections with cutaneous HPV for development of non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC) is not well understood. We have evaluated whether seropositivity to cutaneous HPV is a marker for cutaneous HPV infection and used high

Tidigare forskning om samverkan visar att samarbete innefattar problem och konflikter. Syftet med denna studie är att istället beskriva mer framgångsrik samverkan även om denna utspelas under kortare interaktionsfrekvenser. I boken diskuteras forskning som analyserat framgångsfaktorer men framförallt analyseras ett eget empiriskt material med fokus på hur och när aktörerna inom ungdomsvården framsPrevious collaboration research shows that problems and conflicts sometimes arise as a part of collaboration. This book analyzes successful cooperation unfolding during shorter interaction sequences. In this study I endeavour to describe the contributing factors that are necessary to achieve the phenomenon of a successful collaboration. I do this partially with help from studies published in previ

Popular Abstract in Swedish Mörkerseendet är en mycket känslig nervfunktion och mycket känsligare för låg syrgastillförsel än högre mentala funktioner. Mörkerseendet är kraftigt reducerat hos patienter med två kliniskt sett så olika tillstånd som förträngd halspulsåder (carotisstenos) och "trögflytande blod" (polycytämi). Gemensamt för båda patientgrupperna är en under lång tid störd blodcirculatiPurpose: To study dark adaptation in patients with symptomatic carotid artery disease or polycythemia before and after treatment. This necessitated determinations of pupillary changes as such may influence the findings. To determine whether changes in the retinal blood flow in light and darkness occur in healthy humans. Methods: Repeated automatic dark adaptometry was recorded monocularly in 21 c

Popular Abstract in Swedish Klorofyllsyntes är en viktig process i naturen. De gröna pigmenten utgör en viktig del i fotosyntesen där de absorberar och överför solenergi till fotosyntetiska reaktionscentra. Magnesium kelatas katalyserar insättandet av en magnesium (II) jon i protoporfyrin IX, vilket är det första specifika steget i klorofyllsyntesen. Magnesium kelatas består av tre proteiner, som The biosynthesis of chlorophylls is an important process in nature. The green pigments play a fundamental role in absorbing and transferring solar energy to the photosynthetic apparatus. This thesis elucidates the role and function of the enzyme magnesium chelatase, which catalyses the insertion of magnesium (II) into protoporphyrin IX and is the first committed enzyme of the chlorophyll biosynthe
