Detta examensarbete undersöker möjligheter och utmaningar med sjukresor i Sverige, med fokus på hur olika regioner hanterar transporter för patienter samt de problem som finns kopplade till tillgänglighet och kostnadseffektivitet. Studien syftar till att jämföra regionernas regler och krav för sjukresor samt att utvärdera tillgängligheten i den ordinarie kollektivtrafiken i Skåne. Om den allmänna This thesis investigates the opportunities and challenges of patient transport services in Sweden, focusing on how different regions manage transportation for patients and the associated issues of accessibility and cost efficiency. The study aims to compare regional regulations and requirements for patient transport while also evaluating the accessibility of public transportation in Skåne. If regu

Bygg- och fastighetssektorn står för en avsevärd del av Sveriges klimatpåverkan och resursanvändning, där stålproduktionen är en betydande faktor. Trots att stål är ett material med hög återvinningsgrad är direktåterbruket av bärande stålkomponenter i dagsläget begränsat. Detta utgör en outnyttjad potential för att minska koldioxidutsläpp och främja en cirkulär ekonomi, där Design för Demontering The construction and real estate sector accounts for a considerable share of Sweden's climate impact and resource use, with steel production being a significant factor. Although steel is a material with a high recycling rate, the direct reuse of load-bearing steel components is currently limited. This represents an untapped potential for reducing carbon dioxide emissions and promoting a circul

The Baltic salmon has during the latter part of the 20th century been subjected to several threats. Most notable have been the high levels of contaminant release and a disease that causes early life mortality of the young. Ever since utilization of water power from the Swedish rivers began in the 1940ies, thus deminishing the natural breeding areas for the salmons, an extensive hatchery program ha

A review of a doctoral issertation on "The Visitation of the Sick in Swedish Medieval and Reformation Traditions".

The notion of design research entails research where design practice forms part of the knowledge production. Based on our characterization of the nature of design, we propose to conceptualize this kind of research as programmatic design research. Two ongoing PhD projects in interaction design are presented as examples of programmatic research processes, highlighting issues to do with the virtues a

The article presents and discusses a number of recent scholarly attempts to investigate theological and/or religious dimensions of music. On the basis of critical interpretations of these (Anglophone and German) contributions the article proposes an interdisciplinary approach to a theological aesthetics of music. Such a methodology necessitates any "theologizing" to respect the singular qualities

In children’s literature nonhuman primates are often represented either as ferocious beasts or as curios and charmful vicarious children. In this article I demonstrate how these different constructions interestingly coexist in the popular story ‘‘The monkey that would not kill’’, written by the Scottish evangelist and professor of the natural sciences Henry Drummond in 1891. My study anchors the f

Background: Health inequality and its social determinants are well-studied, but the determinants of inequality of alcohol consumption are less well-investigated. Methods: The total differential approach of decomposition of changes in the concentration index of the probability of participation in alcohol consumption was applied to 8-year longitudinal data for Swedish women aged 28-76 in 1988/89. Re

This paper examines Sweden’s role as a pioneer in mitigating climate change. Critical discourse analysis of climate and energy policy unveils Sweden’s ambition to ‘lead-by-example’, by virtue of a win-win combination of economy and environment via stringent regulations and an early-mover strategy on eco-innovations. The extent of the unilateral approach is constrained by concerns for the competiti

A lattice model for fibril formation on the basis of general peptide interactions is presented. Fibrils are well-structured protein aggregates and a key phenomenon in many diseases, among them Alzheimer. We study the model’s equilibrium and kinetic properties using Wang-Landau sampling and a Metropolis Monte Carlo algorithm with cluster moves. The peptides are shown to form ordered fibrilar aggreg

The purpose of the study is to examine how companies are applying employer branding in social media and how these activities affect potential employees’ engagement. Engagement on social media has been analyzed according to the cognitive, emotional and behavioral dimensions using a mixed method content analysis.

This thesis deals with driving forces for CSR reporting in China. More and more international companies have published their CSR reports under the concern of sustainable development. Chinese companies are facing the environmental and social challenges in China today. CSR reporting has been taken as a sustainable development strategy by the Chinese Central Government and the pioneering Chinese comp

This study focuses on the national system for knowledge-driven management within Swedish healthcare. The study combines theories of governance and implementation with the aim of both analyze the system of knowledge-driven management descriptively, and how it is implemented by local actors. By using text analysis and interviews, the main finding is the complex reality of the system, involving actor

The relationship between development and democracy is robust and enjoys strong scholarly support. While research traditionally has favored country-level comparisons based on objective indicators when studying this relationship, this study crafts an individual-level, perceptions-based index of development, and two measures of support for democracy as a regime type, to approach the relationship. The

Denna uppsats behandlar de rättsliga frågor som uppstår när konserter och idrottsevenemang spelas in, laddas upp eller livestreamas. Bakgrunden är att sådana videor ofta laddas upp på internet, vilket aktualiserar både upphovsrättsliga och avtalsrättsliga frågor. Syftet med uppsatsen är att analysera rättsläget kring inspelning och tillgängliggörande av konserter och idrottsevenemang. Metoden soThis thesis addresses the legal issues that arise when concerts and sporting events are recorded, uploaded or livestreamed. The background is that such videos are often uploaded to the internet, which raises both copyright and contract law questions. The purpose of the thesis is to analyse the legal situation regarding the recording and making available of concerts and sporting events. The method

The aim of the thesis is to present a safety, health and environmental management system based on ISO 14001 and OHSAS 18001 for Industry Park of Sweden. The resulting system is based on a gap analysis between an ideal system and IPOS existing management system. The resulting management system emphasis safety culture before regulations and lets the tenants of the Industry Park proceed with their in
