I denna C-uppsats undersöker jag hur svensk folkmusik- och dans kan berika rytmikmetoden. Rytmikmetoden är mitt huvudämne och utgångspunkten för studien och uppsatsen innehåller därför en historisk översikt över rytmikmetodens utveckling från grundaren Jaques-Dalcroze till idag. Jag förklarar även grundläggande principer, metod och innehåll i rytmikmetoden för att göra jämförelsen med undervisningTitle: Music in motion- An interview study on how Swedish folk music and dance can enrich the method of Eurythmics. In this essay I examine how Swedish folk music and dance can enrich the Eurythmics method. Eurythmics is the starting point for the study and the paper contains a historical overview of Eurythmics, the development from the founder Jaques-Dalcroze to the teaching method of Eurytmics i

Studieobjekt: AI-chatbots, serviceinteraktioner och kundupplevelser. Problemområde: Begränsat med forskning om serviceinteraktioner och kundupplevelser till följd av AI-chatbots. Syfte: Studiens syfte är att undersöka hur kundupplevelsen påverkas i serviceinteraktioner. Vi gör detta genom att fokusera på servicemöten samt service recovery-processer inom detaljhandeln, vården samt hotell- och tra

BackgroundAirway hyperresponsiveness (AHR), a key feature of asthma, leads to airway narrowing in response to bronchoconstrictor stimuli. Notably, AHR is also observed in individuals with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The Mannitol challenge test is an indirect method to assess airway hyperresponsiveness.ObjectiveThe primary aim of this study was to explore airway hyperresponsivenes

IMPORTANCE: Repeating a prostate-specific antigen (PSA) test after an elevated measurement is a guideline-recommended component of the prebiopsy workup. However, it is unclear whether certain patients can be exempted from repeat PSA testing and proceed directly to further workup.OBJECTIVE: To determine yearly PSA variability and implications of repeating an elevated PSA in the Prostate, Lung, Colo

Waste-to-energy fly ash can be repurposed if treated to limit the leaching of potentially toxic elements such as Zn. Ashes with lime additives can be stabilised via gypsum formation, while those without additives are better suited for acid-leaching treatment (and material recovery). In this study, ashes from grate-fired boilers – three without lime addition and one ash with lime addition – were tr

We theoretically investigate the properties of ultracold dipolar atoms in radially coupled, concentric annular traps created by a potential barrier. The nonrotating ground-state phases are investigated across the superfluid-supersolid phase transition, revealing a particle imbalance between the two rings and a preferential density modulation in the outer ring in the absence of rotation. Near the p

Pathogenic bacterial infections lead to bacterial resistance and biofilm formation, causing significant suffering and presenting an urgent issue to be addressed. Polymer materials have garnered considerable attention in the antibacterial field due to their functional moldability and molecular structure designability. These materials can achieve various antibacterial functions by regulating their m

Importance: Prenatal intensive behavioral therapy (IBT) interventions that promote adequate gestational weight gain (GWG) have had variable and mostly modest effects on clinically relevant maternal and infant outcomes. It is unknown whether different maternal obesity metabolic phenotypes underlie the heterogeneity in response. Objective: To examine GWG, adverse perinatal outcomes, substrate change

Quantum instruments describe both the classical outcome and the updated state associated with a quantum measurement. We ask whether these processes can be simulated using only a natural subset of resources, namely projective measurements on the system and quantum processing of the postmeasurement states. We show that the simulability of instruments can be connected to an entanglement classificatio

Introduction: Myocarditis is a complex cardiac disorder with multifactorial etiology, characterized by myocardial inflammation, cardiomyocyte damage, and fibrosis. Left untreated, myocarditis may lead to acute and chronic heart failure and life-threatening arrhythmias. Reliable experimental models of myocarditis are required to study the underlying pathological mechanisms of the disease and to dev

The concept of scattering contrast is central to (small-angle) scattering of neutrons, X-rays, and visible light, as it defines the visibility to the radiation of the nano- and mesostructures under scrutiny, in their respective solvent or matrix. In this chapter, we start with the scattering process by elementary scatterers, such as nuclei or atoms, which produce secondary, scattered waves, and th

Background: Paleolithic Diet Fraction (PDF) and Paleolithic Diet Score (PDS) are both measures of how closely a food intake conforms to a Paleolithic dietary pattern. PDF is calculated directly from an individual’s absolute food intake and PDS is an aggregated score based on an individual’s food intake relative to a population. Both are inversely associated with all-cause and cause-specific mortal

Objective: Drug-coated balloons (DCB) might improve the results of below the knee (BTK) angioplasty, but sufficient randomized data comparing DCB and conventional angioplasty in treating patients with chronic limb threatening ischemia (CLTI) are lacking. This study aimed to perform a randomized comparison between a paclitaxel-coated angioplasty balloon catheter and a conventional balloon angioplas

Air pollution is increasingly discussed as a risk factor for dementia, but the biological mechanisms are not yet fully understood. Biological markers like telomere length are relevant to study with air pollution, as they are associated with aging and dementia. The study aimed to investigate the relationship between source-specific air pollution exposure and telomere length in a low-level air pollu

Entanglement has the ability to enhance the transmission of classical information over a quantum channel. However, fully harvesting this advantage typically requires complex entangling measurements, which are challenging to implement and scale with the system's size. In this Letter, we consider a natural quantum information primitive known as a random access code in which the message to be communi

Introduction: Prenatal exposure to inflammatory states has been suggested to influence offspring neurodevelopment. The aim was to investigate if offspring exposure to maternal Inflammatory bowel disorder (IBD), or specifically the IBD disorder Crohn's disease, during gestation is associated with neurodevelopmental or psychiatric disorders in childhood. Material and Methods: We conducted a populati
