Although the Bangsamoro peace-process in the Southern Philippines has been valued for its gender commitments and potential to build just and sustainable peace, discrimination of the Bangsamoro peoples and other minorities prevail. This thesis uncovers how women peace advocates understand social justice and its remedies in the context of the Bangsamoro peace-process, and which opportunities they ha
Sinusitis is a common disease caused by a virus or bacteria, with 84% to 91% of cases caused by a viral pathogen. However, physicians prescribe antibiotics for this disease in 85% of all cases. GPX Medical is a company working on the development of a medical device which, by means of absorption spectroscopy, can determine whether the disease is caused by virus or bacteria supporting, thus, the doc
Purpose: We aimed to illuminate the lived experiences and the path of recovery for adults sustaining a hip fracture before the age of 60. Methods: Participants were purposively sampled from a prospective multicenter cohort study in Sweden and Denmark, and narrative interviews were conducted with 19 individuals 0.7–3.5 years after the fracture. We used a phenomenological hermeneutic method to descr
Realizing ordered structures at the molecular level is a key approach to increase the charge mobility of organic semiconductors. However, the typical solution-based methods employed for the processing make the achievement of well-organized organic nanostructures difficult with the favored formation of disordered assemblies. To realize well-ordered thin films, one needs to design conjugated materia
A search is conducted for new resonant and non-resonant high-mass phenomena in dielectron and dimuon final states. The search uses 36.1 fb−1 of proton-proton collision data, collected at s=13 TeV by the ATLAS experiment at the LHC in 2015 and 2016. No significant deviation from the Standard Model prediction is observed. Upper limits at 95% credibility level are set on the cross-section times branc
This paper reports searches for heavy resonances decaying into ZZ or ZW using data from proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of s=13 TeV. The data, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 36.1 fb−1, were recorded with the ATLAS detector in 2015 and 2016 at the Large Hadron Collider. The searches are performed in final states in which one Z boson decays into either a pair of lig
BACKGROUND: Each year, more than 1.5 million people in Europe have a stroke, and many experience disabilities leading to activity and participation restrictions. Home-based rehabilitation is the recommended approach for stroke rehabilitation, in line with the international shift to integrated care. Despite this, rehabilitation often focuses on the person's physical functions, not the whole life si
Purpose: The purpose of this study is to scrutinize the connection between creativity and innovation in the context of public healthcare. This is achieved by applying the theoretical concept of employee-driven innovation (EDI) to explore employees’ perceptions of their creative engagement in innovation processes, as well as to capture the managerial implications of setting up such processes in the
Purpose: To address key issues of low SNR and image distortions in prostate diffusion MRI (dMRI) by means of using strong gradients, single-shot spiral readouts and an expanded encoding model for image reconstruction. Methods: Diffusion-weighted spin echo imaging with EPI and spiral readouts is performed on a whole-body system equipped with strong gradients (up to 250 mT/m). An expanded encoding m
A search for nonresonant Higgs boson pair production in the Formula Presented final state is presented. The analysis uses Formula Presented of Formula Presented collision data at Formula Presented collected with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider, and targets both the gluon-gluon fusion and vector-boson fusion production modes. No evidence of the signal is found and the observed (expe
A search for non-resonant Higgs boson pair (HH) production is presented, in which one of the Higgs bosons decays to a b-quark pair (bb¯) and the other decays to WW*, ZZ*, or τ+τ−, with in each case a final state with ℓ+ℓ−+ neutrinos (ℓ = e, μ). The analysis targets separately the gluon-gluon fusion and vector boson fusion production modes. Data recorded by the ATLAS detector in proton-proton colli
Background: Small bowel neuroendocrine tumours often present with locally advanced or metastatic disease. The aim of this paper is to provide evidence-based recommendations regarding (controversial) topics in the surgical management of advanced small bowel neuroendocrine tumours. Methods: A working group of experts was formed by the European Society of Endocrine Surgeons. The group addressed 11 cl
Background: Retention of study participants in observational studies is essential to maintaining the representativeness of the population, minimizing selection bias, and assuring sufficient statistical power. The aim of this report is to describe the structures and strategies used to retain participants in The Environmental Determinants of Diabetes in the Young (TEDDY) Study, an observational stud
The hyperfine coupling constants and the natural radiative lifetimes of the 5 p 2 P 3/2 and 6 p 2 P 3/2 levels of K 39 were determined in a level crossing experiment on an enriched K 39 sample in a sealed-off resonance cell. The following results were obtained: ----- -- a (5 p 2 P 3/2 ) = 1.973 (12) MHz -- a (6 p 2 P 3/2 ) = 0.886 (8) MHz ----- -- b (5 p 2 P 3/2 ) = 0.870 (18) MHz -- b (6 p 2 P 3/
This thesis concerns the experimental study of mixing and flow characteristic in turbulent circular impinging jets without and with jet orifice manipulators (i.e. passive-fixed perturbations atthe nozzle exit), without and with swirl. The goal of the studies is to understand the basic mechanisms that control the mixing processes in turbulent impinging jets. The applications of such mixing processe
Popular Abstract in Swedish Bibelhebreiskans verbsystem (som radikalt skiljer sig från den moderna hebreiskans) har fascinerat exegeter, lingvister, teologer och översättare under århundraden, ja, årtusenden. Liksom många språk av utomeuropeiskt ursprung har den klassiska hebreiskan inte riktigt passat i den kostym som traditionell grammatik försett den med. Den traditionella grammatiken är modelThe verbal system of Biblical Hebrew has intrigued the minds of exegetes, linguists, theologians, and translators for centuries. With regard to the verbal system, Biblical Hebrew is radically different from Modern Hebrew. Furthermore, it doesn't fit the traditional structure of grammar modelled on Latin. It is argued that the interpretive categories of aspect, temporal location, and modality shou
