The textile industry, dominated by fast fashion, has caused significant environmental and social harm. Its complex global long supply chains, spanning multiple countries and production steps, increases the challenges related to traceability, transparency, and accountability. To address these issues, the European Union has introduced the Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation (ESPR), which w

Background. The live smallpox and Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) vaccinations have been associated with better adult survival in both Guinea-Bissau and Denmark. In Guinea-Bissau, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-1 became an important cause of death after smallpox vaccination was phased out globally in 1980. We hypothesised that smallpox and BCG vaccinations were associated with a lower prevalenc

Hydrogen isotope ratios (δ2H) have become a tool for food traceability and authentication of agricultural products. The principle is that the isotopic composition of the produce is influenced by environmental and biological factors and hence exhibits a spatial differentiation of δ2H. This study investigates the variation in δ2H values of New Zealand milk, both in the bulk powder and individual fat

Inhibitors of dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHODH) have been suggested for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, autoimmune diseases, Plasmodium, and bacterial and fungal infections. Here we present the structures of N-terminally truncated (residues Met30-Arg396) DHODH in complex with two inhibitors: a brequinar analogue (6) and a novel inhibitor (a fenamic acid derivative) (7), as wel

Stigma and discrimination are still prominent features of the life situation of persons with mental illness, adding to the burden of the illness, causing a lowered self-esteem, quality of life and affecting possibilities of adequate housing and work. It is also a major barrier to help seeking. The deinstitutionalization of mental health services has led to a significant increase in contacts betwee

Framställningen belyser och analyserar värdeöverföringsproblematiken vid överlåtelse av egendom från fåmansbolag till närståendebolag. Aktieägarna, som indirekt både är överlåtare och förvärvare av egendomen, kan vilja att överlåtelsen ska ske till ett så lågt pris som möjligt. Men de måste hålla sig inom ramarna för värdeöverföringsreglerna i 17 kap. ABL om de inte vill riskera långtgående sanktiThe thesis highlights and analyses the value transfer problem arising when transferring property from a close company to a related company. The shareholders, who indirectly are both transferors and transferees of the property, may wish to undertake such transfer at the lowest price possible. Nonetheless they have to stay within the limits of the value transfer rules in section 17 in the Swedish Co

Concerns about the decline in knowledge concerning food growing stemming stem from the Green Revolution, as well as the rapid urbanization since the beginning of the 20th Century. There is a gap in the literature about community gardening in industrialized English-speaking countries, and since sharing of knowledge is a well-documented achievement of community gardens, the aim of this thesis is to

In 3D rendering a common task is to render large textured surfaces, such as walls and terrains. Ideally you would want a texture that is not obviously repeating itself, but memory limits often work against this goal. This thesis explores a method using texture synthesis that aims to reduce visual repetition and memory usage at the cost of a pre-processing step and higher run time performance requi

The Greenland ice core from NorthGRIP (NGRIP) contains a proxy climate record across the Pleistocene-Holocene boundary of unprecedented clarity and resolution. Analysis of an array of physical and chemical parameters within the ice enables the base of the Holocene, as reflected in the first signs of climatic warming at the end of the Younger Dryas/Greenland Stadial 1 cold phase, to be located with

OBJECTIVE: The aim of the present study was to analyze the long-term outcome of mid-clavicle fractures in adults and to evaluate the clinical importance of displacement and fracture comminution. DESIGN: Two hundred twenty-five mid-clavicular fractures that had been nonsurgically treated at Malmo University Hospital were retrospectively evaluated, both clinically and radiographically, an average of

Building the European identity and strengthening the concept of European citizenship is a task that can be achieved through various ways. One of the most powerful tools is represented by the system of education. Since the inception of the Community action programmes in this field, pupils, students and teachers take part actively in a new form of socialisation at the European level. Realised in th

Industry Foundation Classes (IFC) models from the Architecture, Engineering and Construction (AEC) -industries can contain information on building life-cycle entities. Urban planning and related domains are interested in data conversions between IFC and City Geography Markup Language (CityGML) because of this. However, the maintenance and versioning of CityGML life-cycle building data poses a s

This essay examines the effect of eighties synth-pop influences on modern day pop music production. The study analyzes retro aesthetics in the music of Charli XCX and The Weeknd, with the aim to gain a deeper understanding of the effect the 1980’s have on mainstream pop music. Synthesizers, drum-machines, rhythm, vocals, effects and timbre of these songs are analyzed to reveal how retro sound aest
