BACKGROUND: Medication discrepancies in care transitions and medication non-adherence are problematic. Few interventions consider the entire process, from the hospital to the patient's medication use at home.AIM: In preparation for randomised controlled trials (RCTs), this study aimed (1) to investigate the feasibility of recruitment and retention of patients, and data collection to reduce medicat
Quantum annealing has shown promise for finding solutions to difficult optimization problems, including protein folding. Recently, we used the D-Wave Advantage quantum annealer to explore the folding problem in a coarse-grained lattice model, the HP model, in which amino acids are classified into two broad groups: hydrophobic (H) and polar (P). Using a set of 22 HP sequences with up to 64 amino ac
Space activity is rapidly developing, increasing globally in public and private sectors, and subject to competition amongst dominant spacefaring actors. Global space governance is discordant with the contemporary environment motivating international efforts to develop it. Since 2021 the European Union (EU) is intensively developing space policy and strategies. This dissertation contributes to stud
The advent of new technologies for single-cell RNA sequencing analyses has resulted in the discovery that the myeloid compartment in the tumor microenvironment (TME) is far more complex than previously appreciated, and that intrinsic and extrinsic factors in the TME highly influence the immunosuppressive or active states of these cell types. There is now a need to develop multiplex assays to ident
The global shift in the food system towards more sustainable diets has made legumes such as chickpeas, lentils and beans increasingly important due to their nutritional and environmental benefits. But despite these benefits that they offer, their consumption remains relatively low. A key reason for this, is the digestive discomfort they cause such as bloating and flatulence alongside reduced miner
Denna uppsats undersöker ifall marknadsföringsmetoden Pay What You Want (PWYW) har en starkare positiv påverkan på en konsuments attityd gentemot en produkt i förhållande till gratisprover (FREE). Detta undersöktes på studenter i Lunds Universitet med ett implicit test, SC-IAT. Medan FREE ger bort produkten utan extra kostnad tillåter PWYW konsumenten friheten att köpa en produkt till vilket pris This thesis examines whether the marketing procedure Pay What You Want (PWYW) has a stronger positive influence on a consumer’s attitude towards a product in relation to free product trials (FREE). This was studied on students of Lund University with the tool SC-IAT. While FREE gives the product away without further ado, PWYW allows the consumer the freedom to buy a product at any amount of their
I föreliggande examensarbete har en riskanalysbaserad metod utvecklats som medger bedömning av fiskfaunas respons till ett förändrat framtida klimat såsom modellerat av IPCC, här kallat klimatinducerat påverkanstryck. Metoden har använts på två fiskarter, röding och siklöja, inom deras utbredningsområde i Jönköpings län. Fiskarterna valdes primärt för att de är kallvattenarter och förutspås vara m
Austria, Finland and Sweden became members of the EU in 1995. This paper examines how support for the euro and trust in the European Central Bank (ECB) have evolved in these three countries since their introduction at the turn of the century. Support for the euro in the two euro-area members Austria and Finland has remained high and relatively stable since the physical introduction of the new curr
Aims/hypothesis: The risk of complications and medical consequences of type 2 diabetes are well known. Hospital costs have been identified as a key driver of total costs in studies of the economic burden of type 2 diabetes. Less evidence has been generated on the impact of individual diabetic complications on the overall societal burden. The objective of this study was to analyse costs of hospital
Kelp forests are among the most productive ecosystems on Earth, releasing detritus year-round through direct blade erosion, storm-induced detachment, wave breakage, seasonal shedding, as well as indirect urchin grazing. Fragmental kelp detritus is transported from the euphotic zone to deeper parts of the ocean such as fjords, where decomposition rates are very low and detritus may contribute to lo
This study aimed to examine how interrogation techniques in the form of alpha and omega strategies, as well as a rapport-based approach by the interviewer, were related to engagement and information disclosure in intelligence interviews. The study was conducted through observation and coding of 66 interviews involving a total of 19 interviewees and 6 interviewers in a training-based and realistica
Study region: The Missouri River Basin, located between the states of Nebraska and Iowa, USA. Study focus: Water level (WL) and discharge (Q) are key hydrological variables, accurate prediction of which in both long-term and short-term (extreme events) scenarios is essential for water resources and flood risk management. We propose a novel hybrid deep learning architecture, CNN-NLSTM-SA, which int
Negative symptoms in schizophrenia spectrum are associated with minimal treatment responses. The search for effective treatments is potentially hampered by heterogenous study-designs and sample characteristics depending on the intervention category. This PRISMA-compliant systematic review/synthesis aims to describe the literature on negative symptoms interventions for schizophrenia spectrum disord
The study aimed to investigate if primary health care centers (PHCCs) offering nurse-managed hypertensive care differ from PHCCs with other types of hypertension care regarding blood pressure levels and other key indicators. In this cross-sectional study of the hypertension care given in PHCCs in Stockholm County (now called Region Stockholm), we included all 227 PHCCs in the region. To assess the
Structural design and risk management typically involve uncertainties related to structural performance and loading conditions, which must be effectively managed to ensure compliance with safety requirements. Additionally, the relationships among parameters influencing structural performance are often complex and not easily discernible, thereby complicating the decision-making process. To address
INTRODUCTION: As people age, frailty becomes increasingly prevalent and is associated with adverse outcomes, including higher risks of hospitalisation, institutionalisation and mortality. Early identification of frailty in ambulance and emergency department (ED) settings may support clinical decision-making and help predict outcomes for older patients. However, there is currently no consensus on h
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate psychometric properties of newly developed hand and wrist proprioception tests.DESIGN: Cross-sectional and test-retest comparisons.SUBJECTS/PATIENTS: Twenty-six individuals (mean age 40 years) with wrist disability (> 3 months) due to traumatic injury or general instability.METHODS: Pointing acuity (with eyes open and closed), active joint position sense (in extension, flexi
