This paper is a part of a research project studying human interaction with lighting control devices in public indoor environments. Factors such as the perception of the environment or objects may guide human behavior, therefore the perception of lighting related objects may have an impact on the behavior toward energy saving. This paper reports the development of a questionnaire for measuring hu

Due to human-induced environmental changes, many natural populations are undergoing extensive fitness declines. Natural or sexual selection could potentially shift the phenotypic mean of critical traits towards new phenotypic optima, promoting evolutionary rescue. However, this process has rarely been studied in natural populations. Furthermore, the population fitness can also be increased by gene

I Sverige har alla rätt till skydd av personuppgifter, rätt att ta del av allmänna handlingar och yttrandefrihet. Rättigheterna skyddas av såväl våra nationella grundlagar som av EU:s primärrätt och EKMR. Det är dock inte ovanligt att det uppstår situationer där dessa rättigheter ställs emot varandra. Exempel på sådana situationer är när en enskild begär att dennes personuppgifter tas bort från enEveryone in Sweden has the right to protection of personal data, the right to access public documents, and freedom of expression. These rights are protected by our national constitution, EU primary law, and the European Convention on Human Rights. However, it is not uncommon for situations to arise where these rights conflict each other. Such an example is when an individual requests that their pe

Adults with a history of substance abuse constitute a marginalized group whose experiences of contact with social services are rarely highlighted in research. This study aimed to explore how clients with prior substance abuse problems experience the treatment they received within the social services’ unit for financial assistance and housing, and how such treatment influences their openness to rec

As one of the primary countries of destination for migrant domestic workers in Asia, Singapore is a developed country with one of the highest standards of living in the region. Yet, the city-state has been on the receiving end of extensive criticism concerning the rights and protections of migrant domestic workers. Civil society organizations have been one of the loudest critics, and in recent pub

Young adult novels about suicide are questioned pieces of literature. Fears of suicide contagion and the perceived unsuitability of such narratives for adolescents lie at the centre of this conflict, which has resulted in the banning of books and other censorship moves. Suicide in literature has been the focus of relatively scarce previous research, and there is a need for further literary critici

Action Research, Participatory Action Research and participatory methods have faced a number of criticisms, including that they do not actually involve citizens or create social change, and that they are tokenistic. This thesis develops and tests a new participatory method that contributes to a democratic and emancipatory PAR that responds to these criticisms and the shortcomings of current method

Background: Photon-counting computed tomography (PCCT) is a new clinical method that may show better diagnostic quality at lower radiation doses than conventional CT. Objective: To investigate the diagnostic quality and radiation dose of paediatric cardiovascular PCCT for diagnosis of congenital heart defects at 70 kV and 90 kV. Materials and methods: This retrospective assessment included clinica

Non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide, with ~40–50% of patients diagnosed with non-metastatic disease (stages IA–IIIC). The treatment landscape is evolving rapidly as immunotherapies and targeted therapy are introduced in the non-metastatic setting, creating a need to assess patient outcomes prior to their introduction. This real-world study usin

The Mediterranean Federation for the Advancing of Vascular Surgery (MeFAVS) was founded in 2018, with the aim to promote cooperation among vascular professionals within Mediterranean countries. Due to its prominent social and economic impact on national health systems, diabetic peripheral artery was selected as the very first topic to be investigated by the federation. In this second paper, differ

The disruption of microtubule dynamics serves as a pivotal strategy for eliminating tumor cells, despite its accompanying toxicities affecting non-tumor cells. This study investigates the potential of selectively targeting γ-tubulin1 (TUBG1) as a therapeutic strategy in cancer treatment. By elucidating the TUBG1-E2F1-retinoblastoma protein (RB1) network, we introduce a novel compound, 4-(6-((3-Met

We present noble gas analyses of sediment-dispersed extraterrestrial chromite grains recovered from similar to 470 Myr old sediments from two quarries (Hallekis and Thorsberg) and of relict chromites in a coeval fossil meteorite from the Gullhogen quarry, all located ill Southern Sweden. Both the sediment-dispersed grains and the meteorite Gullhogen 001 were generated in the L-chondrite parent bod

Studying the composition of exoplanets is one of the most promising approaches to observationally constrain planet formation and evolution processes. However, this endeavour is complicated for small exoplanets by the fact that a wide range of compositions are compatible with their observed bulk properties. To overcome this issue, we identify triangular regions in the mass-radius space where part o
