Background Increased airflow is reported as helpful in reducing the sensation of breathlessness. This systematic review aimed to assess the effectiveness of airflow on breathlessness (primary outcome, measured using a validated tool at rest or during exercise) and health-related quality of life (secondary outcome) in people with serious respiratory illness. Methods We searched Ovid MEDLINE, Embase
The basic purpose of this study is to observe the association between firm sustainability and board quality, along with examining the moderating effect of the sustainability committee. Agency theory, resource dependence theory, stakeholder theory, legitimacy theory, and upper echelons theory are used as the theoretical bases of this study. Agency theory describes the supervising role of directors,
This study aims to assess the performance and importance of mangrove ecosystem services, focusing on supporting, provisioning, and regulating, and to investigate temporal changes in mangrove cover in Maputo Bay, Mozambique. It also examines the drivers behind these changes. The research questions address stakeholder perceptions of ecosystem services and their potential trade-offs, temporal changes
This study examines the crisis communication of the Swedish and Norwegian royal houses in relation to the Jeffrey Epstein scandal. While Situational Crisis Communication Theory (SCCT) and Image Repair Theory (IRT) are built on a corporate logic of interchangeable leadership and organizational accountability, this thesis addresses an application gap: monarchies are institutions where legitimacy is
This thesis investigates the global landscape of indicators used to measure climate resilience within Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene (WASH) services through a systematic mapping and gap analysis. As climate change increasingly threatens water security and public health, there is an urgent need for theoretically grounded monitoring frameworks to evaluate systemic resilience across diverse contexts.
This thesis explores the use of birding citizen science data and statistical modelling methods to support the construction of indicators for human-nature relationships. Motivated by the broader aspirational framework of the Nature Relationship Index, the study investigates how voluntary bird observation records can be processed into spatial and temporal measures suitable for statistical analysis,
ObjectivesHuman service workers are at a greater risk for negative work and health-related outcomes due to the highly demanding nature of their work which involves unique stressors such as emotion work and routine interactions with clients. This scoping review synthesizes the current state of literature reporting on the associations of psychosocial safety climate (PSC) with human service workers’
In pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), increased pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) causes right ventricular pressure overload and left ventricular (LV) underfilling. We investigated LV mechanics and their prognostic value in PAH using cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR)-derived LV pressure-volume (PV) loops. We included 96 patients (median age 64 years, 70% women) with PAH and clinically
Youth dropouts in organized sports present a significant challenge across different athletic disciplines worldwide. This thesis aims to uncover the driving factors behind this phenomenon in a specific setting - among youth orienteers in Sweden - using large-scale data analysis and statistical learning. The dataset used in this study consists of historical competition results spanning the years 201

Early experiences with robotic-assisted esophagectomy showed disappointing anastomotic outcomes when techniques were directly translated from open or thoracoscopic surgery. Among intrathoracic anastomotic options in robot-assisted Ivor Lewis esophagectomy (RAMIE-IL), emerging data suggest lower complication rates with the linear stapled side-to-side technique. This method was adopted at our instit
BACKGROUND: Almost a decade ago, about half of biomedical PhD programs across Europe specifically stated that systematic reviews could not be accepted as part of a doctoral thesis, illustrating limited merit value at that time. The aim of this study was to explore current Swedish university policies on this research design.METHODS: Policy documents for PhD theses and applications to associate prof
