The purpose of this research is to identify how God’s actions are talked about in sermons in the Church of Sweden and how this is perceived by the listeners. The research questions that guide this study are: How do priests in the Church of Sweden in the diocese of Lund talk about God in their sermons? And how is this perceived by the participants in the Sunday service? To answer these questio
The purpose of this master’s thesis is to provide a contribution to the research body regarding consumer returns, particularly within the online fashion retail industry. A quantitative data analysis approach is chosen and two main methods are used: data study that aims to identify patterns and interesting relationships in the data, and a simulation study that uses real input data to attempt to ide
Runt om i världen pågår en omställning av energisystem på internationell, nationell och regional nivå av en omfattning som inte noterats på många årtionden. Omställningen innebär i första hand en övergång från fossila, icke förnybara energikällor till fossilfria, förnybara sådana med huvudsakligt syfte att begränsa de antropologiska klimatförändringarna och andra negativa effekter på miljön. Den fAll around the world, energy systems are transforming at the international, national and regional level and at a rate not seen for many decades. This transformation primarily involves a transition away from fossil, non-renewable energy sources and to fossil-free, renewable ones with the primary purpose of halting the process of anthropological climate change and limiting other adverse effects on t
Introduction: This study evaluated lipid identification using mass spectrometry. Background: Three main modes of acquisition are used in mass spectrometry of lipids; data-independent acquisition (DIA), data-dependent acquisition (DDA) and targeted acquisition. DIA is the most including one, yielding a complete but complex data set, while targeted is the least including one, basing acquisition on
Klimatförändringarna, energikrisen och en ökande efterfrågan på el har uppmärksammat behovet av en hållbar omställning av energisystemet. Havsbaserad vindkraft spelar en viktig roll i denna omställning och förväntas expandera kraftigt globalt, i EU och i Sverige. Samtidigt möter projekt stort lokalt motstånd. Trots att svenskar generellt visar högt stöd för vindkraft så har en majoritet av de senaClimate change, the energy crisis of 2022-2023, and estimations of future electricity demands have stressed the necessity for a rapid transition of the energy system. Offshore wind energy plays an important role in this transition, and is expected to expand considerably on a global level, in the EU and in Sweden. While Swedes show high support of wind energy, a majority of recent projects have bee
Background and purpose — Traditional surgery forarthritis of the distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ), which typicallyinvolves resecting the ulnar head, is being increasingly challengedby newer techniques, such as prosthetic ulnar headreplacement. The aim of our prospective cohort study was toinvestigate the clinical and patient-reported functional results,up to 2 years postoperatively, among patients w
Background: The coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) pandemic posed pronounced challenges in the care of lung transplant (LTx) recipients. Global variations in containment strategies and the introduction of messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) vaccines have sparked extensive debate in both scientific and public arenas. Methods: This retrospective study compared outcomes among LTx recipients in Denmark
The lifelong risk of stroke following adverse pregnancy outcomes, and potential causality, are unknown. This study examined five major adverse pregnancy outcomes and long-term risk of stroke in a large population-based cohort. Methods A national cohort study was conducted of all 2 201 393 women with a singleton delivery in Sweden during 1973–2015, followed up for stroke through 2018. Cox regressio
Background Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) represents a group of rare hereditary disorders characterised by deficient ciliary airway clearance that can be associated with laterality defects. We aimed to describe the underlying gene defects, geographical differences in genotypes and their relationship to diagnostic findings and clinical phenotypes. Methods Genetic variants and clinical findings (a
This thesis is done in cooperation with Dresser Wayne AB in Malmö and the objective has been to investigate if it is possible to use the X-flo meter, see Figure 1, in an LPG-dispencer. An increased pressure is used in the LPG-system, which involves a higher risk of leaking and strength problems. During the development consideration has been taken to a new outlet, though other couplings are used in
This thesis project was to develop a module for a forest precision seeder. The project is made at BCC AB. BCC is a worldwide supplier of forest seed centre and containerized nursery equipment. BCC develops, designs, produces and sales machines for forest seed handling. BCC s existing precision seeder can not handle seed that are tinier than 1 mm in diameter. With a growing market in countries with
Objective: To characterize patients with protein-losing enteropathy (PLE) diagnosed before age 18 years within a nationwide Swedish Fontan cohort. Methods: Surgical records and medical charts were reviewed for all patients born after January 1, 1993, who underwent Fontan completion before January 1, 2021. Results: Among 573 reviewed patients, 28 (4.8%) developed PLE. The median time to onset of PL
BACKGROUND In patients with acute myocardial infarction (MI), therapies that could further reduce the risk of adverse cardiovascular and metabolic outcomes are needed. METHODS In this international registry-based, randomized, double-blind trial, patients without prior diabetes or chronic heart failure, presenting with acute MI and impaired left ventricular systolic function, were randomly assigned
ObjectiveTo determine whether the genetic disorder severe α1-antitrypsin deficiency, which has a known association with increased risk for development of lung and liver diseases, is also associated with increased risk for development of gastrointestinal diseases.Patients and MethodsWe conducted a national, longitudinal, registry-based study of individuals with severe α1-antitrypsin deficiency (phe
Purpose: Reduced rapid-eye movement (REM) sleep has been linked to increased mortality in the general population. We investigated whether diminished REM sleep is associated with higher mortality in adults with coronary artery disease (CAD) and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Methods: This secondary analysis of the RICCADSA trial included 356 revascularized CAD patients with OSA (apnea–hypopnea inde
Background: Helicobacter pylori (Hp) and its virulence factor Cytotoxin-associated gene A (CagA) have been linked to myocardial infarction (MI), but the mechanisms are unknown. This study aims to test if Hp infection and CagA are associated with pre-specified inflammatory and vascular biomarkers in patients with MI and to explore whether a broader biomarker panel can predict infection. Furthermore
Urban meteorology, the study of atmospheric phenomena in urban areas, is vital for understanding the dynamic interactions between rapid urbanization and environmental changes. Over the past two decades (2004–2024), urban heat islands (UHIs), extreme rainfall, pollution, and temperature anomalies have intensified, adversely affecting human health, infrastructure, and ecosystems worldwide. The prese
PURPOSE: This study aimed to examine the associations between the intake of high- and low-fat fermented dairy (cheese and fermented milk), their proteomic profiles, and mortality risk.METHODS: This cohort study included 25,187 participants (mean age 57.7 years, 60.9% females). Fermented dairy intake was assessed by a modified diet history method. In a random subset of this cohort (n = 4359), we co
Background: Studies on long-term exposure to air pollution at high levels suggest an association with increased risk of metabolic syndrome (MetS). We aimed to study this relationship at very low levels, less well-studied, yet of public health importance. Methods: The Swedish CArdioPulmonary bioImage Study (SCAPIS) consists of randomly selected subjects aged 50–64 years from six large cities in Swe
