Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are intense, short-lived bursts of gamma-ray radiation observed up to a high redshift (z ∼ 10) due to their luminosities. Thus, they can serve as cosmological tools to probe the early Universe. However, we need a large sample of high-z GRBs, currently limited due to the difficulty in securing time at the large aperture telescopes. Thus, it is painstaking to determine quickl
A central function of human cognition is the ability to perceive, understand, and remember life experiences as meaningful sequences of discrete events. This process, known as event segmentation, allows individuals to spontaneously construct and update event models and has been shown to engage a distributed network of brain regions that transiently increase in activity at event boundaries (e.g., Za
Tetra Pak Global Technical Support AB (GTS) is a company within the Tetra Pak group which main task is to supply the whole world with spare parts for all kinds of Tetra Pak machines. GTS supplies about half a million different parts, which demands a large purchase organisation. This thesis deals with the so-called Sourcing purchase, which is a term for purchase of non-forecasted parts that have no
Ladyfest Sweden is a cultural festival which aims to create a cultural space of expression for women, thus the artists and the organizers are women. It is organized by three different groups in three different cities: Malmö, Stockholm and Göteborg. This thesis is focused on Ladyfest Malmö, all the field work being realized with this group. We tried to include this phenomenon in a global and a part
Title: Overreaction on the Swedish stock market Seminar date: 2008-01-30 Course: Nek K01- Bachelor Thesis in Economics (15 ETCS) Authors: Advisor: Oskar Herbe and Ludvig Persson Hossein Asgharian Key Words: Overreaction, Anomalies, Market Efficiency, Contrarian investment strategies Purpose: The purpose of this thesis is to test if the overreaction hypothesis as originally described by De Bondt an
We have developed an in-situ method using sonication (3 mm probe sonicator, 30 W, 20 kHz) and auto-reduction (control) to study the mechanism of the formation of manganese dioxide (MnO2) on a solid template (silk film), and its resulting enzymatic activity on tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) substrate. The fabrication of the silk film was first optimized for stability (no degradation) and optical transp
Background: Psychiatric comorbidity is common in gambling disorder, a condition with low rates of treatment seeking. There is a paucity of documented nationwide data on gambling disorder and its co-occurring psychiatric comorbidities in the health care system. Methods: This is a nationwide register-based study of all patients aged above 18 years who were diagnosed with gambling disorder (correspon
Background: Radical cystectomy is associated with high rates of perioperative morbidity. Robotic-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) is widely used today despite limited evidence for clinical superiority. The aim of this review was to evaluate the effect of RARC compared to open radical cystectomy (ORC) on complications and secondary on length of stay, time back to work and health-related quality o
Distributed energy systems play a significant role in the integration of renewable energy technologies. The Energy Internet links a fleet of distributed energy systems to each other and with the grid. Interactions between the distributed energy systems via information sharing could significantly enhance the efficiency of their real-time operation. However, privacy and security concerns hinder such
Background: Large lower eyelid defects resulting from tumour removal are frequently reconstructed using a tarsoconjunctival flap from the upper eyelid together with an overlying free skin graft, the so-called Hughes procedure. One disadvantage of this technique is that the tarsoconjunctival flap occludes the eye during the revascularization of the graft, which is particularly troublesome for patie
Enligt 1 kap. 2 § första stycket brottsbalken krävs som huvudregel uppsåt hos den som begår en otillåten gärning, medan oaktsamhet aktualiseras i de fall det är särskilt föreskrivet. Svensk straffrätt utgår från tre uppsåtsformer: avsikts-, insikts- och likgiltighetsuppsåt. Likgiltighetsuppsåt infördes i svensk rätt genom rättsfallet NJA 2004 s. 176 och utgör sedan dess uppsåtets nedre gräns, det As a general rule, Chapter 1, Section 2 of the Swedish Criminal Code requires intent on the part of the offender for a criminal act to be punishable, whereas negligence is relevant only where expressly prescribed. Swedish criminal law recognises three forms of intent: direct intent, indirect intent, and intent by indifference. Intent by indifference was introduced into Swedish law through the Supr
Objective: To assess the risk of suicide after a diagnosis of urinary bladder cancer (UBC) compared with the standard population and to identify potential risk factors and time dependence associated with suicide in patients with UBC. Method: We used data from the Bladder Cancer Data Base Sweden 2.0 (BladderBaSe), including all individuals aged 18 years or older, diagnosed with UBC between 1997 and
Background: Sevoflurane is a rapid-acting volatile anaesthetic agent frequently used in paediatric anaesthesia despite transient postoperative symptoms of cerebral excitation, particularly in preschool children. This randomised and investigator-blinded study was designed to evaluate whether premedication with an opioid might reduce non-divertible postoperative excitation more than premedication wi
Authorship is important for career progression but it also implies responsibility for the integrity of work undertaken. There are variousguidelines for authorship, but with no clear definition and with tacitly agreed standards which vary between disciplines, it can be amatter of interpretation and negotiation who will be listed as an author. It is often not clear what contribution each person has
Aims: Resuscitated out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) patients who remain comatose after hospital arrival are at high risk of mortality due to anoxic brain injury. MicroRNA are small-non-coding RNA molecules ultimately involved in gene-silencing. They show promise as biomarkers, as they are stable in body fluids. The microRNA 9-3p (miR-9-3p) is associated with neurological injury in trauma and
PurposeIncumbent retail organisations need to develop new capabilities to adapt with the increasingly competitive retail landscape. Despite the growing relevance of innovation in retail practice, the strategic management of innovation in retailing is still vastly under-researched. This explorative study thus aims to investigate how incumbent retail firms can organise for innovation from an organis
For better understanding of the transient behavior of the flow/flame interaction in highly turbulent premixed flames, measurement techniques with sufficient temporal resolution are required. Using a burst-mode laser pumped optical parametric oscillator system, the present work demonstrated an ultra-high-speed diagnostic, for the first time, capable of visualizing hydroxyl radicals (OH) and formald
Introduction: The study assessed causes of admission, the rate and time trends of neonatal mortality in DilChora referral hospital, Dire Dawa, Ethiopia, 2013-2017. Methods: A hospital based 5 years retrospective study was conducted among neonates admitted to NICU from January 1/2013 to September 10/2017 in DilChora hospital, Dire Dawa, Ethiopia. Data was abstracted from Neonatal Intensive Care Uni
Background: Transient ischemic attacks (TIA) indicate an increased risk of stroke, one of the leading causes of death and disability worldwide. In order to prevent stroke, our knowledge of diagnosis, demographics, risk factors, investigations, and treatment of patients with TIA needs to be improved.Aims: The aims of this thesis were to validate data and diagnoses in the Riksstroke TIA module (Riks
