Abstrakt Bakgrund: I Sverige år 2020 föddes det cirka 114 500 barn. Av dessa föds ungefär 2% med en missbildning som behöver behandlas inom medicinsk eller kirurgisk vård. De barnkirurgiska diagnoserna inom Nationell Högspecialiserad vård (NHV) är endast en liten del av alla de medfödda missbildningarna. Forskningslitteraturen som behandlar barn och familjer med NHV-diagnoserna utifrån ett familj
Abstrakt Bakgrund: Det finns kunskapsbrister om fertilitet, vilket har visat sig påverka individers val av tidpunkt för familjebildning. Senarelagd familjebildning kan leda till ofrivillig barnlöshet eller färre antal barn än önskat. Initiativ för ökad kunskap om fertilitet har bland annat kritiserats för att inte vara tillräckligt skräddarsydda för olika målgrupper. Ökad fertilitetsmedvetenhet r
Bakgrund: Majoriteten av personer med schizofreni upplever begränsningar relaterat till aktivitet och delaktighet i vardagliga aktiviteter. Symtombilden består till stor del av positiva och negativa symtom och en bristande sjukdomsinsikt. Det råder begränsad evidens kring hur arbetsterapeutiska interventioner påverkar aktivitet och delaktighet för personer med schizofreni. Syfte: Att kartlägga arb
The ambition of this study is to assess whether it is most tactically advantageous to have fewer larger surface combatant ships compared to more smaller ones within the framework of a coastal defense operation in Swedish waters. The study notes that since the torpedo was first fired in anger in battle more than 135 years ago, small warships have for long had the ability to sink larger warships. Th
Organiserad brottslighet har under de senaste åren varit en viktig kriminalpolitisk fråga och är det än idag. Media rapporterar frekvent om skjutningar kopplade till hämndaktioner i den kriminella miljön, problem i de utsatta områdena, mord som inte går att klara upp samt företag som förskingrat miljonbelopp. Det ska nämnas att den organiserade brottsligheten har bytt skepnad genom tiderna. MångsiOrganized crime has been an important criminal policy issue in recent years and remains an important issue today. The media frequently reports on shootings linked to retaliation in the criminal environment, problems in the vulnerable areas, murders that cannot be solved and companies that have cheated millions of dollars. It is said that organized crime is a phenomenon that has changed shape over
Heating is a big factor in protected horticulture and current high fuel prices mean many UK growers cannot afford to plant this season’s crops. Meanwhile, vast quantities of surplus heat exist, often an unwanted by-product of other industries. Theoretically, this heat could be used to offset fossil fuel consumption in horticulture, reducing cost and environmental impact. Despite technical and econ
Pyruvate is one of the main molecules needed for the citric acid cycle, which produces energy in the form of ATP. The citric acid cycle reaction occurs in the mitochondrial matrix, and for pyruvate to participate in the reaction, it needs to be transported from the cytosol across the mitochondrial membranes into the mitochondrial matrix. A special membrane protein called the mitochondrial pyruvate
Projektet Intelligent Survey (IS) utvecklades för att predicera depression och ångest från naturligt språk genom att översätta individers kvalitativa svar från elva öppna frågor till kvantitativa värden som jämförs och prediceras mot skalorna; Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9), Generalized Anxiety Disorder scale (GAD-7), Harmony in Life scale (HILS) och Satisfaction With Life Scale (SWLS). I saThe project Intelligent Survey (IS) was developed to predict depression and anxiety from natural language by translating individuals' qualitative answers from eleven open-ended questions to quantitative values, which are compared and predicted against the scales; Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9), Generalized Anxiety Disorder scale (GAD -7), Harmony in Life scale (HILS) and Satisfaction Wit
Bakgrund: Psykisk ohälsa ökar i Sverige och forskning visar att en stor problematik hos målgruppen med psykisk ohälsa är svårigheten att finna mening i aktivitet, vilket ses som en nyckel till tillfrisknandet. Naturunderstödd rehabilitering (NUR) är en rehabiliteringsform som bland annat är utvecklad av arbetsterapeuter och som visat ge positiva effekter för personer med psykisk ohälsa. Trots att
Simulations of domains with large differences in length scales across different directions are often computationally expensive because they require high mesh resolution, leading to long simulation times. This master’s thesis was done in collaboration with FS Dynamics Sweden AB and addressed the high computational cost associated with fully resolved 3D simulations. Inspired by semiconductor and ele
The aim of this project is to establish a workflow that transforms CT-scanned images of paperboard into a calibrated Representative Volume Element (RVE). A RVE is defined as the smallest volume that accurately captures the macroscopic behaviour of the material. First, CT-scanned images are converted into a finite element model that rep- resents the microstructure of the paperboard. Secondly, a di
Bioacoustic sound event detection (SED) is a critical field for biodiversity monitoring, yet the high cost of annotating data poses significant challenges. This thesis explores the application of active learning strategies to reduce the amount of annotated data required for effective model training. This is done for a segment based SED model, where batch active learning is performed by querying fu
The need for speed in communications systems is increasingly prevalent in modern society, which is one of the driving factors for the evolution of new technologies. At the forefront of this evolution are Multiple-input Multiple-output (MIMO) systems. Through the usage of many antennas at the base station (BS) and user equipment (UE), significantly enhances the potential maximum data transfer rates
Flooding in oil palm plantations in Southeast Asia is a common problem. The oil palm’s habitable range is restricted to lowland equatorial areas, and the high rainfall and degraded landscapes associated with oil palm cultivation leaves oil palm prone to flooding. Flooding diminishes yields in mature palms, increases mortality in young palms, and disrupts operational processes. This reduces the ec
On the 19 of October 2004 two people in Linköping, Sweden were murdered. Police secured DNA from the perpetrator, however it could not further the investigation since the DNA was not in the police registry. The case remained cold until 2020 when a new method of ancestral DNA was used, referred to as IGG. The method was previously tested in the USA and solved plenty of cold cases. The double homici
Söndagen den 11:e september 2022 var det återigen dags för riksdagsval i Sverige. Valresultatet som presenterades ett par dagar senare avslöjade att den socialdemokratiska regeringen skulle få avgå efter en period om åtta år, och Sverige skulle komma att få en ny regering. Regeringsskiftet skedde den 18:e oktober 2022, och består idag av en trepartiregering: Moderaterna, Kristdemokraterna och LibParliamentary elections were once again held in Sweden on Sunday the 11th of September 2022. The election results were presented a few days later and revealed that the Social Democratic government would have to resign after a period of eight years, meaning that Sweden soon would become to have a new government. The change of government took place on the 18th of October 2022, and consists today of
In October 2022, the European Commission announced a legislative proposal to make instant payments in euro available to all citizens with a bank account in the EU and EEA countries. When adopting new payment technologies, it can be challenging to balance security and convenience. Consideration must be given to whether compromised security is an unavoidable effect of instant payments or if both obj
Glacier lake outburst floods (GLOFs) are an increasingly documented threat across the Himalayan region, wherein Nepal is situated. GLOFs involve a rapid discharge of water from a lake situated at the side, front, within, beneath, or on the surface of a glacier. Forecasting the impacts associated with such events could facilitate the development of proactive risk management approaches. Impact-based
Syftet med den här uppsatsen är att undersöka huruvida verksamma inom gymnasieskolan upplever sig förberedda inför att ta sig an undervisningen i det nya kunskapsområdet Sexualitet, samtycke och relationer (SSR), som är en del av rådande läroplan sedan höstterminen 2022. Med hjälp av policy enactment theory analyserar vi tematiskt kodade kvalitativa intervjuer med lärare och biträdande rektorer oc
