The purpose of this thesis is to estimate the costs associated with hand injuries inflicted by log splitters and circular saws, and by doing this also estimate a value of prevention. This is carried out in the form of a cost of illness study with an incidence approach. A consecutive data material comprising 57 patients was obtained from the Department of Hand Surgery at Malmö University Hospital (
Under de senaste åren har utvecklingen av artificiell intelligens frodats och med sig tagit en förbättrad träffsäkerhet i taligenkänning. Däremot, liksom med alla snabba teknologiska utvecklingar har den sina brister, i det här fallet bristen på dialektal träningsdata. Den här uppsatsen undersöker om AI har en ojämnt fördelad förståelse av regionalt språk, med fokus på försummandet av de sydsvenskThe recent surge in the development of artificial intelligence has greatly improved the accuracy of automatic speech recognition. However, as with all abrupt technical improvements, it will have its weaknesses, in this case the lack of dialectal training data. This thesis investigates if AI has an unevenly distributed understanding of regional speech, focusing on the disregard of southern Swedish
Agricultural development is widely seen as crucial for poverty reduction and food security. However, the contribution of agricultural interventions to these goals has been mixed. This study evaluates how such interventions influence the livelihood strategies of Ugandan smallholder farmers. By combining insights from the Sustainable Livelihoods and Dynamic Livelihood Strategies Frameworks, a theore
Denna studie undersöker hur semiotiska tecken och i synnerhet paralingvistisk bidrar till att forma narrativ och kommunicera kulturella aspekter i videoreklam inom två distinkta marknadsföringslandskap. Genom en kvalitativ innehållsanalys av totalt sex reklamfilmer från det svenska varumärket ICA och det taiwanesiska PX Mart, har studien undersökt hur icke-verbala tecken kategoriserade under visueThis study explores how semiotic signs and, most notably, paralinguistics in video commercials contribute to facilitating narratives and communicating cultural aspects across two distinct marketing landscapes. By conducting a qualitative content analysis of six commercials from the Swedish brand ICA and the Taiwanese PX Mart, the research examines how a set of non-verbal cues categorized under vis
The rule of law is one of the founding principles that has accompanied the birth and development of the EU and is considered a shared value among the Member States. However, it is currently facing implementation challenges at national level, and this increasing crisis of the principle in some Member States has affected not only the fundamental rights recognised at EU level, even resulting in the b
Soil ecosystems are under pressure from a variety of anthropogenic drivers. Yet, we know surprisingly little about the soil biota, which is believed to be the basis of healthy soils. This thesis explores how Danish agricultural advisors work with soil biota to ensure sustainable soil management.Through qualitative interviews, practices, and challenges in caring for soil biota are revealed, uncover
Water for Injection (WFI) is a critical utility in pharmaceutical manufacturing, traditionally produced through an energy-intensive distillation process. This thesis investigates the feasibility of a more sustainable alternative, ambient WFI production using membrane-based purification technologies combined with ozonation in the storage and distribution loop. Conducted in collaboration with AstraZ
This study investigates how organizations make sense of machine-generated digital trace data, focusing on the interpretation of LUCAS device telemetry at Jolife. While such data is highly granular, it lacks contextual information, creating challenges in translating technical outputs into meaningful representations of real-world use. Adopting a mixed-methods approach, the study combines qualitative
The purpose of this study is to develop an in-depth understanding of middle managers’ sensemaking processes during planned organizational change by examining their use of metaphors, and to analyze how these metaphors influence their role in between strategic intent and organizational practice. Adhering to the interpretive research tradition, the study follows an abductive, qualitative single-case
This thesis analyses how welfare, entitlement and welfare subjects are discursively constructed in the policy process surrounding the proposed qualification requirements for social insurance benefits and financial assistance, as part of the Swedish social benefit reform, ‘bidragsreformen’. Drawing on Norman Fairclough’s three-dimensional model of discourse analysis, the study examines the governme
Background: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common but underrecognized sleep-related breathing disorder characterized by intermittent hypoxemia and autonomic dysfunction. OSA prevalence and clinical relevance in Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (T1DM), particularly in relation to diabetes-related vascular complications, remain insufficiently explored. Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate th
Background: Developing new diagnostic imaging methods that provide detailed visualization of the histoanatomy of tissues and organs requires precise histomorphometric evaluation. With a particular focus on bowel, this study aimed to develop and validate a computer program for reliable and efficient assessment of bowel wall histomorphometry. Methods: A MATLAB-based computer program was developed in
Background: Local networks have been recognized for their potential to govern collaborative action toward a low-carbon future in urban areas, yet there is a need to learn more about the strengths and weaknesses of such governance structures. In this paper we assess the Local Roadmap for a Climate Neutral Building & Construction Industry in Malmö 2030 (LFM30) network which was initiated in 2018

Insects are vital for the environment and biodiversity. Optics-based remote techniques can quickly and effectively identify and track insects in their natural habitat. This has the potential to speed up and improve the time-consuming process of manually monitoring insect diversity. This thesis presents a method to remotely sense insects by analyzing the sunlight reflected by free-flying insects. T
This thesis explores how second-hand clothing shopping contributes to the process of identity-making and social positioning among young adults in Germany and Hungary. Using the Consumer Culture Theory framework, the study investigates the social and cultural infrastructures that influence consumer behavior and emphasizes the symbolic meanings attached to second-hand shopping beyond traditional mot
This thesis explores the possible points of use for autonomous vehicles (AVs) in the last mile delivery context. Motivated by the growing demand for efficient, scalable and customer centric delivery solutions, this thesis identifies the pain points in last mile delivery and evaluates the AV features required for application in the last mile delivery. It employs a qualitative approach and incorpora
