In times of climate change, companies face extreme pressure from external stakeholders to engage in environmental sustainability activities. Especially companies of industries that significantly contribute to the global carbon emissions are expected to change their behaviour. There, the road freight transportation business is known for its particularly heavy impact. Being forced to adapt to change
Predicting the development of distant metastasis for breast cancer patients is of high importance for both the patient and the medical staff. The current best method for prediction is the use of handcrafted histopatological features. The aim with this study is to explore how well Additive Multiple Labelling Cytochemistry (AMLC) stained core biopsy images can predict the development of distant meta

When installing new research equipment at the synchrotron research laboratory MAX IV, a final positional accuracy of tens of microns is usually needed. To obtain that accuracy, initial reference points must be placed within 2 mm from the nominal target points in CAD, in a process referred to as bluelining. It is currently a manual process where points from a virtual environment are transferred to
Uppsatsen behandlar likhetsprincipen och generalklausulerna i svensk aktiebolagsrätt. Reglerna utgör en del av det så kallade minoritetsskyddet. Även om bestämmelserna är gamla, är tillämpningen och förhållandet mellan likhetsprincipen och generalklausulerna något som fortfarande debatteras. Syftet med uppsatsen är att utröna hur tillämpningen av reglerna ska förstås och hur de förhåller sig till The thesis deals with the principle of equality and the general clauses in the Swedish Companies Act. The rules form part of the so-called minority protection. Although the regulations are old, the application and relationship between the principle of equality and the general clauses is something that is still debated. The essay aims to find out how the application of the rules should be understoo

Manufacturing companies face mounting pressure to reduce inventory levels because of high interest rates, while simultaneously meeting an increase in customer demands for shorter lead times and customizable products, increasing strain on supply chains. The logistics department (SMCL) within Sandvik, the investigated company, operates several warehouses around the world. Their supplier network is b
The need for sustainability is increasingly pressing, imposing significant demands on infrastructure and its fossil footprint. The Swedish railway network currently fails to meet future requirements, while new high-speed rail lines struggle to be established. Tight economic constraints necessitate significant time and cost savings to ensure successful project implementation. To take a step closer
PFAS contaminating groundwater is a worldwide problem. PFAS are synthetically produced substances that are known for their persistence in the environment. Understanding their behaviour in the environment is therefore an important factor, especially considering the possibility of contaminating drinking water sources. Groundwater modelling is a valuable tool to increase the knowledge regarding fate
The analysis of annual extremes of hydrological and meteorological variables is frequently complicated by the presence of gaps in record, and when records are not only fragmented but also short, it is necessary to utilize to the full the information contained in them. One method is to abstract for statistical analysis all extreme events whose peaks exceed a pre-selected threshold value, but the th
Ribonucleotide reductases (RNRs) catalyze the reduction of ribonucleotides to deoxyribonucleotides, the building blocks for DNA synthesis, and are found in all but a few organisms. RNRs use radical chemistry to catalyze the reduction reaction. Despite RNR having evolved several mechanisms for generation of different kinds of essential radicals across a large evolutionary time frame, this initial r
Background: The transcription factor SOX11 is of diagnostic and prognostic importance in mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) and epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC), respectively. Thus, there is an unmet clinical and experimental need for SOX11-targeting assays with low background, high specificity and robust performance in multiple applications, including immunohistochemistry (IHC-P) and flow cytometry, which
Background: Although arthroscopy of upper extremity joints was initially a diagnostic tool, it is increasingly used for therapeutic interventions. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) are considered the gold standard for assessing treatment efficacy. We aimed to review the literature for intervention RCTs involving wrist and shoulder arthroscopy. Methods: We performed a systematic review for RCTs i
