We were interested in catalogers as human beings and in their reaction to a changed working situation. In the light of the changes which have been made at the libraries during the nineties, we investigated why the very group catalogers reacted with an intense and engaged open debate at the same time as librarians with special competence didn t seem to react in this way. The open debate about the c

Methodology: This study follows a qualitative research approach by analyzing an acquired company in the logistic industry. Data was collected through s

I have always been curious about the effects architecture and the built environment have on us. The special atmosphere and the ability to arouse a sense of safety and calmness, but also the negative feelings certain spaces can evoke. Which architectural elements contribute to the way we perceive a space and more importantly, does the built environment not only affect our emotions but also our ment

Ungefär en tredjedel av Sveriges befolkning är friluftsaktiva i skog- och mark minst en gång i veckan. Detta intresse ökar för varje år, och under Covid-19-pandemin nådde andelen friluftsintresserade nya höjder där femtio procent av Sveriges totala befolkning aktivt deltog i utomhusaktiviteter. Men, även fast intresse för utemiljöer och naturupplevelser finns, har alla inte samma möjlighet att ta About a third of Sweden's population is active outdoors in forests and fields at least once a week. This interest increases every year, and during the Covid-19 pandemic the percentage of people interested in the outdoors reached new heights where fifty percent of Sweden's total population actively participated in outdoor activities. But, even if there is a strong interest in outdoor enviro

I denna rapport analyseras hur dimensioneringen av Rectiverter och UPS systemens storlek är anpassade för driftsplatsernas faktiska elförbrukning och vilka potentiella lösningar som finns för att effektivisera användandet av systemen för att minska elförbrukningen. Effektiviserandet av driftplatsernas system kommer att leda till en kostnadseffektivare anläggning. För svenska lågspänningsanläggningThis report analyzes how the size of Rectiverter and UPS systems is tailored to the actual electricity consumption at operational sites and explores potential solutions to optimize the usage of these systems in order to reduce electricity consumption. Optimizing the operational sites' systems will result in a more cost-effective facility. In Swedish low-voltage installations, a standard has be

In Sweden rises the competition between construction companies and they are struggling to get projects while they need to perform them at a good profit. The situation is forcing companies to continually develop and streamline their organization while they have high goals in environmental, occupational health, safety and ethics. An important part of the work to streamline companies is that the purc

This qualitative case study analyses the Chilean NGO TECHO, now present in 19 countries in Latin America and the Caribbean, from the perspective of Foucault's concept of governmentality, as elaborated by Rose and Miller (2008). They argue that non-state modes of power are the defining features of contemporary societies, and that these operate through loose, associative networks through which a

Ett antal studier har visat att buller har negativa hälsoeffekter (Barregård et al. 2005; Rosvall et al. 2009; Nilsson, Eriksson & Palmqvist 2009). Exempel på problem som kan uppstå på grund av buller är sömnsvårigheter, hjärt- och kärlsjukdomar, minskad inlärning och reducerad kognitiv förmåga (Berglund, Lindvall & Schwela 1999). Dessa typer av hälsoproblem leder till lidande för den enskNoise has negative health effects according to a number of studies (Barregård et al. 2005; Rosvall et al. 2009; Nilsson, Eriksson & Palmqvist 2009). Example of problems that can occur from exposure to noise is sleeping disturbances, heart diseases, lessened learning and reduced cognitive performance (Berglund, Lindvall & Schwela 1999). This kind of problems cause suffering on a personal le

The supervising organs of the International Labour Organization (ILO) have for decades criticized the Myanmar government for making use of forced labour. In 1996, during the 83rd session of the International Labour Conference, twenty-five worker delegates filed a complaint against Myanmar for violating its obligations under the Forced Labour Convention, and soon after the Governing Body of the ILO

Luftvägssjukdomar är en av de vanligaste orsakerna till dödsfall och påverkar miljontals människor i världen årligen. Idag är den vanligaste administrationsvägen vid behandling av dessa sjukdomar via munnen genom att inhalera en läkemedelsaerosol, små partiklar lösta i en gas som ger en läkemedelseffekt. Även om denna metod är effektiv så finns det ett behov av att hitta fler sätt att bekämpa luftRespiratory diseases are a major global health challenge where current inhalation medication is primarily by oral inhalation. An alternative administration route is by nasal inhalation allowing for rapid drug absorption, high patient compliance and avoidance of the first-pass effect. Despite its potential for local and systemic drug delivery there is limited research on active inhalation of dry po

Objective: Previously proposed “synchronous EEG patterns” predict poor outcome within 24 h after cardiac arrest (CA). We investigate the prognostic performance of these early EEG predictors in addition to the late EEG predictors (>24 h) recommended in the European post-resuscitation guidelines. Methods: Observational substudy of the TTM2-trial including consecutive comatose resuscitated patients.

Introduction Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) mainly affects elderly men, grows slowly, and carries high mortality if left untreated, as rupture risk increases with larger diameters. AAA is well suited for screening due to its slow progression, long latent phase, reliable diagnostics, and established treatments. The primary aim of this thesis was to assess whether absolute infrarenal aortic diamete

Background: Physical activity (PA) in childhood is critical for establishing a healthy lifestyle across the lifespan, particularly to treat and prevent obesity. This study aimed to explore PA and sedentary behaviour (SED) in 6–12-year-old children with obesity and their parents, and possible associations in these behaviours between children and parents. Methods: Children referred to outpatient pae

Background Self-harm is a prevalent health concern among youths, with significant psychosocial impacts on both youths and their parents. The aim of this study is to describe the impact of offspring self-harm on parental work absence. Methods This cohort study included 176 472 mothers and 161833 fathers of 17 726 youths with a first self-harm diagnosis between the years of 2006 and 2016 and 177 260

Background: Chronic low-grade inflammation is a well-known risk factor for coronary heart disease (CHD) and future cardiovascular events. Anti-inflammatory therapy can reduce the risk of ischemic cardiovascular disease (CVD) events following myocardial infarction (MI). However, it remains unknown to what extent inflammation at the time of an acute event predicts long-term outcomes. We explored whe

Background General adiposity, assessed by body mass index (BMI), is a well-established cancer risk factor. This study compared waist circumference (WC), a measure of abdominal adiposity, with BMI as a risk factor for obesity-related cancers, and assessed whether WC provides additional information beyond BMI. Methods We analyzed data from 339 190 individuals in a pooled Swedish cohort with baseline
