Bakgrund: Postoperativa infektioner är näst vanligast bland de vårdrelaterade infektionerna och leder till lidande för patienterna. Preoperativ helkroppstvätt med klorhexidinbaserad tvål används i stor utsträckning i förebyggande syfte inför alla typer av kirurgiska ingrepp. Vårdhandboken rekommenderar preoperativ klorhexidintvätt inför särskilt infektionskänsliga ingrepp. Syfte: Att granska oc

Syftet med detta examensarbete är att förstå vad som ligger till grund för dagens utformning av busshållplatser och vilka möjligheter det finns för att bygga attraktiva busshållplatser. För att kunna göra det är det viktigt att förstå de inblandade aktörernas ansvarsfördelning och intressen. Metoden som har använts är kvalitativa intervjuer med trafikplanerare från Malmö Stad, Skånetrafiken och anThe aim of this master thesis is to understand why bus stops are designed the way they are and what the possibilities are to build attractive bus stops. To do so it is also important to know which the invovled parties are and what role they play. The method for this study are qualtive interviews with transport planners from Malmö Stad and Skånetrafiken and other interesting parties. The study has

Social, ecological, and cultural impacts associated with the U.S. military in Hawaii are egregious. However, due to the historical oppressions and injustices to Hawaiians, the U.S. military maintains their hegemony by wielding a disproportionate decisive political and economic power. This study aims to explore perceptions of Native Hawaiian and non-native activists regarding the military impacts a

This thesis explores how advertising practitioners understand and balance creativity and consistency in the advertising that they produce. Employing a qualitative methodology, this research utilised a focus group interview to thematically analyse practitioners' understanding and application of these two dimensions. Integrating theories of brand equity, advertising equity, and sensemaking, we p

This bachelor thesis explores nonbinary people’s experiences of joy and community, as well as how we are affected by social exclusion, anti-gender ideology, unintelligibility, and questions about whether nonbinary people actually exist. The aim of the thesis is to contribute to crucial efforts to amplify the voices and experiences of nonbinary people. Through interviews with five nonbinary people

A rapid increase in renewable energy in response to climate change often generates local conflicts. To achieve a just transition to renewable energy, it is crucial to embed justice into its development processes. I examined the case of solar development in Kushiro, Japan. By combining the theories of multispecies justice and procedural justice, this thesis analyzed how local stakeholders perceive

Vad ska den svenska skogen räcka till idag? Varför ser den ut som den gör? Och kan vi sköta den på ett sätt så att fleras behov täcks? En parallell inläsning om regenerativ design och den svenska skogen står till grund i examensarbetet. Genom att identifiera skogens intressenter och gestalta en plats där de kan mötas undersöker projektet hur platsskapande kan leda till kulturella skiften. Vad händThis study aims to explore the current and potential uses of the Swedish forest, investigating the reasons behind its current state and examining potential management strategies to meet the needs of a diverse range of stakeholders. Drawing on principles of regenerative design, the thesis delves into the implications of creating a space where various forest stakeholders can converge and interact, p

Business Continuity Management (BCM) is in many respects a technically oriented field. The technical aspects of BCM are of great importance, however they become meaningless if not used and managed properly. Without adequate human and organizational conditions, there is a risk that BCM does not take the decisive step from solely comprising well-documented business continuity plans, to also generati

With increasing age, the diameter of central elastic arteries increases, whereas their distensibility decreases. The purpose of this study was to investigate the mechanical properties of the proximal brachial artery in relation to age and gender. Distensibility coefficient (DC), stiffness and compliance coefficient (CC) were calculated in 136 healthy males and females (range 9-82 y) using echo-tra

TBX22 belongs to the T-box family of transcription factors and was originally found in an in silico approach designed to identify new genes on the human Xq12-q21 region. Mutations in TBX22 have been reported in families with X-linked cleft palate and ankyloglossia (CPX), but the underlying pathogenetic mechanism remained unknown. We have identified mouse Tbx22 and analyzed its expression during em
