Background: Exposure to particulate matter (PM) is generally associated with elevated risk of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Elderly and obese subjects may be particularly susceptible, although short-term effects are poorly described. Methods: Sixty healthy subjects 25 males, 35 females, age 55 to 83 years, body mass index > 25 kg/m(2)) were included in a cross-over study with 5 hours of

Land use change threatens global biodiversity and compromises ecosystem functions, including pollination and food production. Reduced taxonomic α-diversity is often reported under land use change, yet the impacts could be different at larger spatial scales (i.e., γ-diversity), either due to reduced β-diversity amplifying diversity loss or increased β-diversity dampening diversity loss. Additionall
Water scarcity is a growing global challenge, with projections indicating that 40% of the world’s population could face shortages by 2030. At the same time, the transition to renewable energy is essential for reducing carbon emissions, with solar power playing a key role. The DESOLINATION project addresses these challenges by integrating concentrated solar power with advanced membrane processes fo
Background The global prevalence of congenital heart disease (CHD) is increasing. Research on patient-reported outcomes (PROs) predominantly originates from high-income countries, resulting in an incomplete understanding of the true global burden of CHD from the patient perspective. Therefore, we described perceived health, psychological distress and quality of life (QoL) in a large sample of adul
Background Advances in medical and surgical care have improved survival in patients with transposition of the great arteries (TGA), shifting focus toward quality of life (QoL). In this study we evaluate QoL in adults with TGA, including congenitally corrected TGA (ccTGA) and patients with dextro-TGA (d-TGA), by comparing patients with a systemic right ventricle (sRV) and systemic left ventricle (s
A particularly well-studied evolutionary model is the vinegar fly Drosophila melanogaster, a cosmopolitan insect of ancestral southern-central African origin. Recent work suggests that it expanded out of Africa ∼9,000 years ago, and spread from the Middle East into Europe ∼1,800 years ago. During its global expansion, this human commensal adapted to novel climate zones and habitats. Despite much w

The Swedish legislation on restraining orders has been debated and often criticized. In order to broaden the possibility of getting a restraining order, the Swedish Government introduced a new legal ground, ”the risk of unwarranted surveillance”. This thesis aims to investigate the new legal ground, focusing on surveillance-related conduct on the social media platforms, Instagram and Snapchat, whi
Denna uppsats behandlar begreppet skälig levnadsnivå i 12 kap. 1 § SoL och undersöker hur begreppet förstås och tillämpas i svensk rätt. Utgångspunkten är att skälig levnadsnivå utgör ett centralt rekvisit inom socialrätten och ligger till grund för bedömningen av kommunens ansvar att tillförsäkra enskilda ekonomisk och social trygghet genom bistånd. Samtidigt är begreppet avsiktligt vagt utformat
Bakgrund: Fluktuerande patientflöden och begränsade resurser är vanliga utmaningar på akutmottagningar världen över. I sådana situationer spelar triage en central roll för att säkerställa rättvis bedömning och prioritering av patienter. Det är därför viktigt att undersöka akutsjuksköterskors upplevelser av triage på akutmottagningen, då det kan belysa potentiella hinder och bidra till förbättringa
This study applies the Scenario method developed by the Royal Dutch Shell Corporation to the work of Swedish development organization SIDA and its work in Kenya. The Study is an attempt to show alternate ways for the development sector to handle long term planning, risk and uncertainty in an increasingly complex world as well as dealing with the increased constraints to their resources. The study
Enligt senaste IPCC-rapporten står världen inför ett stort klimatproblem. Flera organisationer arbetar aktivt på en global och nationell nivå för att bromsa in klimatförändringarna. Strävan mot klimatneutralitet är redan idag högst relevant inom byggnadssektorn för att nå målet om ett klimatneutralt samhälle år 2045. Syftet med examensarbetet är att undersöka möjligheten att bygga till ett klima
Increasing numbers of species face long-term population declines as a consequence of human activities, and these pressures are expected to intensify under a changing and warming climate. Ground-nesting birds in agricultural landscapes are particularly vulnerable, including the Montagu’s harrier (Circus pygargus), which has declined across Europe due to intensive modern agriculture combined with th
