This master’s thesis maps and compares local literary networks within UNESCO’s Cities of Literature, with the aim of understanding how such networks are structured, what their functions are and how they are controlled and developed. Drawing on concepts from social network analysis and Bourdieu’s theories of social fields, capital and habitus, the study combines quantitative and qualitative methods
Rwanda’s Nyabarongo catchment frequently experiences floods, highlighting the need for effective flood susceptibility analysis and management. This study mapped flood susceptibility in the catchment using the random forest (RF), support vector machine (SVM), eXtreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost), SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) models, as well as various conditioning factors including elevation
Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and anxiety disorders are early-onset mental disorders characterized by selective attention and strong emotional reactions. Attentional bias has been proposed to play a role in the development, onset, and maintenance of the disorders, but few studies have included youth with mental disorders, and no study has included more than one clinical group, making it uncl
The currently most promising approach for reducing CO2 emissions of the global steel production is reducing iron ore in shaft furnaces with (green) hydrogen instead of blast furnaces. Unlike to the liquid iron produced in blast furnaces, the direct reduced iron produced in this route (green iron) exists in a solid state and can be transported at reasonable costs over long distances. This allows fo
Optimization of hexyl-beta-glycoside synthesis from lactose in hexanol at low water activity and high temperature was investigated using beta-glycosidases from hyperthermophilic organisms: Sulfolobus solfataricus (LacS) and Pyrococcus furiosus (CelB). The method for water activity adjustment by equilibration with saturated salt solutions was adapted for use at high temperature. The influence of en
Background: A contralateral occult inguinal hernia is frequently observed in patients planned for a unilateral laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair. Surgical strategy for contralateral groin management in patients scheduled for an endo-laparoscopic unilateral inguinal hernia repair is controversial and based on questionable evidence. This study aimed to gather international opinion concerning the s
The Value of a Statistical Life (VSL) is a widely used measure of the value of mortality risk reduction. Since VSL should reflect preferences and attitudes to risk, there are reasons to believe that it varies depending on the type of risk involved. It has been argued that cancer should be considered a “dread disease”, which supports the use of a “cancer premium”. The objective of this study is to
The performance of COATEST® APC® Resistance on different coagulation instruments has been further evaluated through analysis of plasma from 100 blood donors on KC 10, ST 4, ACL 300R, Electra 900 and Thrombolyzer. The electromechanical instruments KC-10 and ST 4 showed a lower response to APC than the turbidimetric or photometric instruments with median APC ratios of 2.7 and 2.8 for the two former
Germline mutations in CDKN2A are frequently identified among melanoma kindreds and are associated with increased atypical nevus counts. However, a clear relationship between pathogenic CDKN2A mutation carriage and other nevus phenotypes including counts of common acquired nevi has not yet been established. Using data from GenoMEL, we investigated the relationships between CDKN2A mutation carriage
OBJECTIVES: To identify germ line variants contributing to the development of monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS), an asymptomatic premalignant precursor for multiple myeloma (MM).METHODS: We conducted the first genomewide association study (GWAS) on MGUS on 243 German cases with a replication on 294 Czech cases. Identified loci were further analyzed in 1508 German MM patient
Environmental exposures to a myriad of chemicals are associated with adverse health effects in humans, while good nutrition is associated with improved health. Single chemical in vivo and in vitro studies demonstrate causal links between the chemicals and outcomes, but such studies do not represent human exposure to environmental mixtures. One way of summarizing the effect of the joint action of c
Study objectives: Following traumatic events, people frequently experience distressing, involuntary memories of them (i.e., intrusions). Accumulating evidence suggests that sleep facilitates voluntary memory retrieval by supporting memory consolidation, but it is less clear what effect sleep has on intrusions. Recent research has used distressing film clips as a proxy for traumatizing events and e
Background: Patients in intensive care units (ICUs) are among the most vulnerable, and they require support to start their recovery. The design of the patient area in the ICU can play a prominent role in both the quality of care and patients’ recovery. The lighting environment has the opportunity to restore and strengthen the natural human circadian rhythm and health. Aim: To evaluate patients’ se
OBJECTIVE - To elucidate whether family characteristics and stressful life events were associated with onset of autoimmune type 1 diabetes in young adults. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS - This investigation was based on a nation-wide study (Diabetes Incidence Study in Sweden) of newly diagnosed patients aged 15-34 years. Patients clinically classified as type 1 diabetic with antibodies to islet cell
Popular Abstract in Swedish Mellanörats funktion är att överföra och förstärka ljudvågor från luften i hörselgången till innerörats vätska. Denna överföring är optimal när trumhinnan är i neutral position, dvs när trycket i mellanörat och omgivningen är lika. Avvikelser i mellanörats tryck ses vid kroniska mellanöresjukdomar, fr a är det visat ett samband mellan negativt tryck och sjukdomstillstånThe middle ear (ME) pressure is regulated by gas diffusion over the ME mucosa and pressure equalizations via the Eustachian tube (ET). Disturbance in the regulation of ME pressure is believed to contribute to the development of chronic ear diseases. In this work subjects with chronic central perforation (CCP), healthy ears with ventilation tubes (VTs), attic cholesteatoma (AC) and Meniere’s diseas
