Sepsis är ett livshotande tillstånd som är ett globalt problem där dödligheten är hög. Mer än 50 miljoner människor drabbas världen över, av dessa dör cirka 10 miljoner. Sepsis kan drabba människor i alla åldrar, sjukdomstillstånd samt livssituationer. Tid och behandling är ytterst viktig vid detta tillstånd då risken av att erhålla komplikationer eller död kan ske på endast några timmar. Patient
Companies face the strategic challenge of expanding into adjacent markets or areas. This often requires a choice between building internally, acquiring through purchases, or forming partnerships to address the opportunity. While extensive literature exists on each of these options individually, there is limited research on the decision-making process that evaluates all these alternatives collectiv
Bakgrund: Äldres population ökar globalt och behovet av akutsjukvård är större hos den äldre befolkningen än populationen i övrigt. Våld mot äldre kan vara svårt att upptäcka och kan leda till stora konsekvenser för den äldre. Akutsjukvården har en betydelsefull roll i att identifiera äldre våldsutsatta personer. Syfte: Beskrivning av hur våld i nära relation mot äldre kan identifieras inom akutsj
Postnatal depression is a highly prevalent problem, with widespread negative consequences for mother and infant. To understand whether Infant Carrying might be able to protect from or mitigate postnatal depression onset, this online study was conducted using a German and American sample of mothers in the first 6 months postpartum (N = 217). The aim was to gather further knowledge on the relationsh
With the sustainable potential of the city as a starting point, this thesis examines brownfield redevelopment in an existing urban context. The Nørrebro neighborhood of Copenhagen serves as a case. The focus is on learning from and reinterpreting existing urban structure, hierarchy, density and scale. Legislation allowing car free development at the chosen site, Vingelodden, also prompts explorati
The needs and wishes of older people have often been forgotten in urban planning in recent decades. Yet already today, more than one billion of the world‘s population is over 60 years old, and according to the World Health Organisation (WHO), one in six people will be over 60 by 2030 - an increase to 1.4 billion by 2030 and up to 2.1 billion by 2050 (WHO, 2024). Like many European countries, Switz
Akutsjukvården präglas av hög belastning, högt arbetstempo och tidskritiska omhändertagande i stressfyllda och oförutsägbara miljöer. Kontinuerliga utmaningar har inneburit påfrestning hos sjuksköterskor, både fysiskt och psykiskt. Litteraturstudien utformades för att fördjupa förståelsen kring arbetsrelaterad stress och vilka faktorer i miljön som kan påverka. Syfte: Syftet var att beskriva s
This thesis explores the application of machine learning techniques to improve the diagnosis of bloodstream infections (BSIs) using tabular data extracted from Swedish electronic health records maintained by Region Skåne. BSIs are associated with high mortality rates, especially when diagnosis and treatment are delayed. Traditional diagnostic methods like blood cultures are time-consuming and can
Abstrakt Bakgrund: Allt flera människor flyr från sitt hemland pga. krig, hot eller förföljelse, de söker skydd hos mottagande land. Papperslösa personer tillhör dessa grupp av människor, de är en extremt utsatt grupp bland Europas befolkning både inom vården och bland allmänheten. De får oftast ojämlikt vård och riskerar därför att få sämre hälsoutfall jämfört med resten av befolkning. MajoriteteAbstract Background: An increasing number of people are fleeing their home countries due to war, threats, or persecution, seeking refuge in host countries. Undocumented individuals are part of this group, constituting an extremely vulnerable population in Europe, both in healthcare settings and among the public. They often receive unequal treatment and are at risk of poorer health outcomes compare
Mitt examensarbete har varit ett undersökande kring vilka riktlinjer som bör finnas för arkitekturen i ett villaområde. Det har också varit en process där jag utforskat nya sätt att tänka kring villatomtens utformning och användning. Examensarbetet utspelar sig i villaområdet Nya Bellevue i Malmö. Området växte fram i början av 1900-talet, under en tid då staden växte som mest. Detta, i samband me
Dark matter is the problem of apparent missing mass in the universe, a discrepancy between observations of large-scale astronomical dynamics, and the observed matter density in large scale structures. The Light Dark Matter eXperiment (LDMX) is a proposed experiment to probe the realm of “light dark matter" in the mass range MeV to GeV. Light dark matter refers to a class of models where a new
The last mass-extinction event happened over 65 million years ago when an asteroid collided with earth, resulting in the loss of 76% of all species. Scientists now warn that we are on the precipice of a new mass-extinction, the responsibility of which can be placed entirely on one species, the homo sapiens. While some species of birds, bats, and arthropods are especially vulnerable, we are all int
The historical record is an underutilised resource within many fields of biology, despite its unique uses. In this thesis, I have used information from entomological collections and species observation systems to investigate and elaborate on the distribution, habitat preferences and phenology of some rare and poorly known moths within the family of Gelechiidae. Like many other microlepidoptera, ge
EQUITY: The Center Of Inequality Awareness offers an alternative viewpoint of the Naturum. It'sa way of learning about your surroundings through engaging activities that center on inequity. EQUITY, which is situated next to one of Sweden's greatest lime quarry, feels strongly about its cause, which is the inequality the workers had compared to investors. I was inspired by the uneven and n
Bakgrund: Naturbaserad terapi i trädgårdsmiljö vänder sig till individer med olika typer av ohälsa. Denna litteraturöversikt fokuserar på stressrelaterad psykisk ohälsa. Genom återhämtande aktiviteter i naturen kan människor komma tillbaka till en fungerande vardag. Arbetsterapeuter ingår ibland i det professionella team som verkar inom fältet. Syfte: Att kartlägga effekter och upplevelser av natu
Examensarbetet Plats för fler i Lund undersöker möjligheterna och utmaningarna i att ge nytt liv åt en förbisedd urban plats. Projektet utgår från frågor om hur offentlig arkitektur kan främja en social blandning, hur kulturhistoriska värden kan influera en ny gestaltning och hur det omgivande stadsrummet kan användas som inspiration och ge indicier om vad som kan kompletteras i stadens urbana mil
This master’s thesis is commissioned by SAAB Group with the purpose of developing a model which can be used to estimate the margin for expansion of devices in PLC systems. Although commercial PLC systems are hard real-time systems, they have inherited unpredictable characteristics due to off-the-shelves components. This makes it difficult to measure the impact on performance when a new device is c
In this master thesis a novel way of trapping nanosized particles were tested. The technology used was based on acoustic trapping with seed particles. In difference to earlier devices the seed particles were held in place by a physical barrier that worked like a filter, stopping the bigger seed particles while allowing the nanosized particles to flow through, a setup that allowed for significantly
The diffusion equation is a partial differential equation that describes how quantities such as heat, particles, or other diffusive substances spread out over time and space. This type of equation can be, at often times, quite challenging to solve analytically. Finding the exact solution is often difficult due to the com- plexity of the functions involved. This thesis focuses on solving the diffus
