Recent years has seen increasing interest in the concept of affordances in music performance research. Hereby, the agency of musical instruments is understood as defined by the perceived opportunities for action emerging through the sensorimotor relationship (i.e. the continuous interaction between musician and instrument). As such, it is an analytical perspective that highlights material and embo
The aim of this Intensive Care Medicine Rapid Practice Guideline (ICM-RPG) was to provide evidence-based clinical guidance about the use of higher versus lower oxygenation targets for adult patients in the intensive care unit (ICU). The guideline panel comprised 27 international panelists, including content experts, ICU clinicians, methodologists, and patient representatives. We adhered to the met
The intronic SNP rs7903146 in the T-cell factor 7-like 2 gene (TCF7L2) is the common genetic variant most highly associated with Type 2 diabetes known to date. The risk T-allele is located in an open chromatin region specific to human pancreatic islets of Langerhans, thereby accessible for binding of regulatory proteins. The risk T-allele locus exhibits stronger enhancer activity compared to the n
Social media has become the most popular communication channel. Large amounts of information flows are being exchanged between users. The information shared on social media is seen as more reliable than the information found on traditional media. Companies have already incorporated social media as one of their communication channels. However, the evolution of social media has occurred in such a br
Arbetstagare och företagshemligheter har en nära relation till varandra. Faktum är att arbetstagarens kunskap kan utgöra själva företagshemligheten. Den lagliga regleringen av företagshemligheter påverkar därför arbetstagaren betydande. Den 28 november 2013 kom Europa kommissionen med ett förslag till direktiv om företagshemligheter. Denna uppsats behandlar direktivets påverkan på svenska arbetstaEmployees and trade secrets are closely linked. In fact, an employee’s knowledge can sometimes constitute an actual trade secret. Therefore, legislation governing trade secrets greatly affect employees. On the 28th of November 2013 the European Commission proposed a directive on trade secrets. The aim of this thesis is to investigate how this directive will affect Swedish employees. To investigat
Drainage of peatlands causes changes in water table (WT), vegetation and decomposer community. As a consequence, decomposition patterns and carbon dynamics change, which is visible in altered Dissolved Organic Carbon (DOC) concentrations in ground and soil water. Additional changes in precipitation patterns towards more extreme drought and rain periods, as expected with climate change, cause furth

As our cities face the growing impacts of climate change, there is a pressing need to rethink urban development through innovative lenses. One approach is to venture into this change by transforming the functions of the cities to let nature assist in community tasks, thereby reducing the footprint of greenhouse gases. This study shows the integration of Nature-Based Solutions (NbS) and Artificial
Brand authenticity plays a crucial role in a brand’s growth according to previous research, but little research has been conducted to examine how growth may affect brand authenticity. It has been conventional practice in the branding world to study brand authenticity based predominantly on consumer perceptions rather than studying brands’ ability to remain authentic over an extended time period. A
Avhandlingens syfte är att undersöka effektiviteten av tillgång till rättvisa för ursprungsbefolkningar i ljuset av rättigheterna till landområden, territorier och naturresurser. Detta kommer att göras genom att undersöka både rättspraxis från Interamerikanska domstolen för mänskliga rättigheter (och ett fall från Högsta domstolen i Brasilien), den rättsliga ramen på internationell nivå och andra
Today, breast cancer is the most common malignant disease among females worldwide. To predict the prognosis for outcome of the breast cancer, a number of prognostic factors are used such as the axillary lymph node status which is one of several factors to be evaluated when staging the disease. The axilla is routinely staged during sentinel lymph node biopsy excising a couple of lymph nodes to eval
While there have been numerous research papers defining and discussing high technology startup success, there is a lack of unity what the recipe for success is. Due to lack of market orientation being one of the most common reasons for startup failure, combined with the essentiality of having a strong technology base in a high technology environment, there is an interest to study their intersectio
Background: Social media has permeated practically every aspect of our everyday lives. One of these social media platforms is Instagram, which enables people to connect, communicate and share information with other users. The potential of these and social media influencers (SMI) to influence users’ behaviours is considerable. However, sustainability influencers, an emerging type of SMIs, have gain
This thesis explores two interrelated issues when it comes to traditional alcohol in Tanzania and its day-to-day activities: identity formation and local economic life. Given the fact that drinking traditional alcohol in Africa is an intrinsic part of social life, it becomes an object in the articulation of diversity, coexistence, and preservation of identity. The study presents women as nodes thr
Enligt art. 53(1)(b) EUTMR och art. 7 EUTMD utgör ond tro ett registreringshinder, samt en ogiltighetsgrund för varumärkesregistreringar. EU lagstiftare erbjuder inte en mer djupgående förklaring för vad ond tro inom varumärkesrätten innebär. Istället har uppgiften att definiera begreppet ’ond tro’ fallit på EUD, Tribunalen och EUIPOs administrativa nämnder. Föreliggande uppsats har undersökt hur According to art. 53(1)(b) EUTMR and art. 7 EUTMD, trade mark applications filed in bad faith are to be refused registration, or invalidated if already registered. The European legislators do not provide a more in-depth description of what it means for a trade mark applicant to be in bad faith at the time of filing an application. The task of defining the concept of bad faith has been placed in th
Textile industry is one of the most polluting industries in the world and fast fashion is the unsustainable practice that most consumers are following. Adopting the habit of purchasing secondhand goods can lead to a more sustainable life. However, some people still do not prefer to consume secondhand clothes because of various stigma and barriers attached to it. In order to eliminate the stigma an
In this thesis we propose a new form of Variational Autoencoder called the Conditional Latent Space Variational Autoencoder or CL-VAE. By conditioning on a known label in a dataset we can decide what points are being mapped to what prior distribution. This makes the latent space more understandable and separates the classes further. It also subverts the tug-of-war effect between reconstruction los
This thesis seeks to investigate what kind of planning Vesterport needs today. This thesis proposes to cover the rain tracks and create an overall urban planning that not only connects ends, but also links the existing. The ends being connected by infrastructural and nature grips, where a new promenade connects the area to the historical urban ring structure of Copenhagen. The promenade connects
This study employs large-scale Chinese pre-trained language models (BERT series) and the Fill-Mask Association Test (FMAT) to systematically measure gender- and age-based, as well as class-based, heterogeneity in marital status stereotypes embedded in natural language. Four sub-studies were designed to examine the effects of age (22–40 years), residence (urban vs. rural), and education (high vs. l
Amidst a surge in global demand for materials driving the green transition, this thesis investigates how policymakers can best ensure sound environmental performance in the Swedish mining industry following unexpected mine closures. Current Swedish financial assurance mechanisms, intended to operationalize the Polluter Pays Principle, are hampered by unclear criteria and a focus on individual site
