The recent advent of 3DSG in the computer vision domain has brought powerful high-level representations of 3D environments. These representations strive to mimic human perception and facilitate the extraction of meaningful insight from visual data. This research has led to framework like Hydra, which creates a real-time, persistent spatial perception system that creates a complete 3D map of their
The objective of this report is twofold: to optimise the extraction method of lignin from spruce altering a few process parameters and to investigate the use of lignin as a hydrophobic barrier in food applications. The process used was STEX (steam explosion) pretreatment followed by enzymatic hydrolysis and MWL (milled wood lignin) extraction using a mixture of dioxane-water. The lignin was then c
The aim of the study was to examine how counselors at the women's clinic relate to existential questions in the meeting with patients related to social work in a healthcare setting. The intention was to look closer at what challenges the staff faces, as well as what they find obstacles that stop or make it difficult to talk about existential issues. This was investigated through semi-structure
Krishantering och förebyggande arbete inför naturkatastrofer, som i detta examensarbete avgränsas till tsunamis, har identifierats som bristande genom tiderna. Här studeras tsunamikatastroferna i Indiska Oceanen 2004 och Japan 2011 för att identifiera brister hos varningssystemen som används för att skydda samhällena som befinner sig i dessa riskzoner och dess befolkning. Först visade det sig att
I november 2021 beslutade den dåvarande regeringen att tillsätta en utredning för att göra en översyn av regleringen om frihetsberövande påföljder för unga. I augusti 2023 publicerades utredningen som ställer sig positiv införandet av s.k. ungdomsfängelser. Den frihetsberövande påföljd som i nuläget finns för unga lagöverträdare (15–17 år), utöver fängelse, är sluten ungdomsvård (och stadgas i 32 In November 2021, the Swedish government at the time decided to appoint an inquiry to review the regulations on custodial sanctions for young people. In August 2023, the investigation was published, which is in favor of juvenile prisons. The custodial sanction that currently exists for young offenders (15-17 years old), in addition to imprisonment, is "closed youth care" (and is stipulat
Nationella domstolars skyldighet att inhämta förhandsavgörande från EU-domstolen har under lång tid varit föremål för kritik. Kritiken har främst bestått i att det vid en strikt tolkning av EU-domstolens domskäl i princip är omöjligt att hantera förhandsavgörandefrågan unionskonformt. Under december 2022 beslutade den svenska Högsta domstolen att riva upp ett lagakraftvunnet avgörande med hänvisniThe obligation of national courts to request preliminary rulings from the European Court of Justice (ECJ) has long been criticized, mainly on the grounds that a strict interpretation of the ECJ's case law makes it practically impossible to manage the question of preliminary rulings in a manner compatible with EU law. In December of 2022, the Swedish Supreme Court decided to overturn a final ju
Today the Swedish education system faces major challenges. This study deals with school segregation, and the broad topic is narrowed down through a qualitative study that intends to capture several dimensions of how the municipality in Malmö works to improve the conditions for a good and equal education. It also tries to highlight the ideological discussion of why this work is important for the ci
Taboo obsessions are ego-dystonic, recurrent, and intrusive thoughts involving aggressive, sexual and/or religious themes, which are common in individuals with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). These symptoms are often challenging to treat with traditional, exposure-based approaches. Our research group has developed and successfully piloted an Internet-delivered intervention based on the cognit
Objectives We aimed to compare various methods for imputing disease activity in longitudinally collected observational data of patients with axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA). Methods We conducted a simulation study on data from 8583 axSpA patients from ten European registries. Disease activity was assessed by the Axial Spondyloarthritis Disease Activity Score (ASDAS) and the corresponding low disea
OBJECTIVES: To investigate hip dysplasia as a risk factor for clinically relevant and incident radiographic hip OA.METHODS: From a prospective cohort (CHECK) of 1002 middle-aged, new consulters for hip and/or knee pain, 468 hips (251 individuals) were selected based on hip pain, available lateral center edge angle (LCEA) and absence of definite radiographic hip OA (Kellgren and Lawrence [KL] grade
Controllable hydrogen generation rate of Al-Ga-based on-site hydrogen supply materials significantly impacts their practical application. In many scenarios, the hydrolysis reaction occurs at elevated temperatures, which is a factor often overlooked in its effect on reaction kinetics. This study investigates the relationship between grain size and reaction rate in Al-Ga-based alloys for hydrogen ge
Chrysene-containing polymers functionalized with piperidinium- and quinuclidinium cations, respectively, are prepared by polyhydroxyalkylation and studied as anion exchange membranes (AEMs). Experimental results, supported by theoretical considerations, indicate that the chrysene units significantly enhance alkaline stability; a poly(chrysene piperidinium) AEM shows only 16% total ionic loss, comp
I takt med att generativ AI har blivit både bättre och mer lättillgänglighar skriftliga examinationsformer såsom uppsatser och hemtentamenbörjat ifrågasättas. Med stöd i den traditionella synen på generativ AIsom ett otillåtet hjälpmedel, där studenten genom tekniken inte självformulerar de skriftliga inlämningarna som ska bedömas, beklagar siglärarkollegor över hur skrivuppgiften urholkas och ris
Brief Admission by Self-referral (BA), a standardized crisis intervention for individuals with repeated self-harm or suicidal behavior, was adapted for adolescents from 13 years in Region Skåne, Sweden, in 2018. BA aims to offer access to support based on autonomy and has been associated with reduced need of emergency care. Interviews with adolescents and legal guardians have pointed to BA as valu

The idea that tunneling is enhanced by the compression of the donor-acceptor distance has attracted significant interest. In particular, recent studies argued that this proposal is consistent with pressure effects on enzymatic reactions, and that the observed pressure effects support the idea of vibrationally enhanced catalysis. However, a careful analysis of the current works reveals serious inco
Aims: To estimate the proportion eligible for lipid-lowering therapy (LLT) when using the systemic coronary risk estimation 2 (SCORE2) on apparently healthy individuals. Methods and results: Individuals aged 50-64 years were randomly invited to The Swedish Cardiopulmonary Bioimage Study (n = 30 154). Participants with previous atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (CVD), diabetes mellitus, or chr
Introduction: Investigation of bone marrow (BM) trephine biopsies and/or clot sections by CD34 immunohistochemistry (IHC) testing has been used by pathologists for several decades, and its clinical value has been well established with QBEND10 being the most frequently used primary antibody (Ab) clone. However, most other parameters related to the IHC protocol as well as the readout vary widely bet
