RENOVATION USING PREFABRICATED FAÇADE ELEMENTS

The building sector uses about 40% of the total global energy use. Sweden aims to reach its new goal to reduce the energy use in their residential sector as well as commercial sector by 20%, which should be reached by year 2020 and 50% by year 2050. To find a solution to this problem European Union (EU) collaborated with IVL (Swedish environmental Research Institute) and LKF (lunds Kommuns Fastigh

Cyberattackers olika dimensioner - En analys av artikel 51 i FN-stadgan och dess förhållande till cyberattacker

Den ökade digitaliseringen av samhället har bidragit till att en stor mängd kommunikation förs och att data i allt högre utsträckning lagras digitalt. Detta har lett till en hög effektivisering av samhället. Samtidigt har hackare kunnat utnyttja denna digitalisering för att kunna rikta fientliga cyberangrepp mot andra stater i syfte att försvaga deras nationella försvar. Detta har bidragit till ökThe increased digitalization of society has contributed to a large amount of communication being conducted online, and that data is increasingly stored digitally. This has, in one way, led to high efficiency in society. At the same time, hackers have exploited this digitalization by directing hostile cyberattacks against other nations to weaken their national defenses. This has raised concerns by

Source Design of Vertical III-V Nanowire Tunnel Field-Effect Transistors

We systematically fabricate devices and analyse data for vertical InAs/(In)GaAsSb nanowire Tunnel Field-Effect Transistors, to study the influence of source dopant position and level on their device performance. The results show that delaying the introduction of dopants further in the GaAsSb source segments improved the transistor metrics (subthreshold swing and the ON-current performance), due to

Gigantic solar farms of the future might impact how much solar power can be generated on the other side of the world

The Sun’s energy is effectively limitless. While resources such as coal or gas are finite, if you are able to capture and use solar power it doesn’t prevent anyone else from also using as much sunshine as they need.Except that isn’t quite the full story. Beyond a certain size, solar farms become large enough to affect the weather around them and ultimately the climate as a whole. In our new resear

Associations of Macronutrients Intake With MRI-determined Hepatic Fat Content, Hepatic Fibroinflammation, and NAFLD

CONTEXT: A healthy lifestyle is the cornerstone of management in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). However, the associations between dietary macronutrient composition and different aspects of NAFLD pathology are unclear and dietary recommendations for NAFLD are lacking.OBJECTIVE: This work aimed to evaluate the associations of dietary macronutrient composition with hepatic steatosis, hepat

Foreign Policy Analysis and Securitization

To what extent can securitization theory help us to engage with the puzzles and problems of foreign policy analysis (FPA)? And how can FPA scholarship contribute to the development of the assumptions of securitization? This chapter will probe these questions and attempt to demonstrate that these seemingly disparate research traditions indeed both complement and inform one another. Securitization t

Identification of Putative Causal Relationships Between Type 2 Diabetes and Blood-Based Biomarkers in East Asians by Mendelian Randomization

Observational studies have revealed phenotypic associations between type 2 diabetes (T2D) and many biomarkers. However, causality between these conditions in East Asians is unclear. We leveraged genome-wide association study (GWAS) summary statistics on T2D (n = 77,418 cases; n = 356,122 controls) from the Asian Genetic Epidemiology Network (sample recruited during 2001-2011) and GWAS summary stat

Life story templates in dementia care : Ambiguous direction and purpose

Background: The use of life stories in dementia care has been described as a way of seeing every person as an individual, looking beyond their dementia. Life stories have become synonymous with high-quality care, while in Sweden their mere existence in dementia care settings is taken to indicate quality in national comparisons. Such life stories are often standardised, generated by a family member

Bakom kulisserna av konsumtion: En kvalitativ undersökning om produktplaceringar i tv-serien Emily in Paris och unga vuxnas varumärkesuppfattning.

Studiens syfte är att undersöka hur unga vuxna uppfattar produktplaceringar i tv-serien Emily in Paris. Strävan är att uppnå en större förståelse för hur konsumentens köpintention påverkas av produktplaceringar, samt produktplaceringens påverkan på konsumenternas attityd och kännedom gentemot varumärken. För att besvara frågeställningar har en kvalitativ studie genomförts med 12 semistruktureradeThe aim of this thesis is to examine how young adults perceive product placements in the tv show Emily in Paris. The ambition is to achieve a greater understanding of how consumer purchase intention is influenced by product placements, as well as the impact of product placements on consumers' attitudes and awareness towards brands. To answer the research questions, a qualitative study has bee

Plasma Biomarker Strategy for Selecting Patients with Alzheimer Disease for Antiamyloid Immunotherapies

Importance: Antiamyloid immunotherapies against Alzheimer disease (AD) are emerging. Scalable, cost-effective tools will be needed to identify amyloid β (Aβ)-positive patients without an advanced stage of tau pathology who are most likely to benefit from these therapies. Blood-based biomarkers might reduce the need to use cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) or positron emission tomography (PET) for this. Ob

Teacher Responses to Peer Aggression – Links to Empathy Fatigue, Professional Self-Care, Work Satisfaction, Professional Self-Efficacy, and School Climate

IntroductionThis study is part of an international collaboration that investigates teachers’ attitudes and responses to vignettes depicting school bullying situations. As per Bandura's model of reciprocal determination, attitudes and behavior in these situations can be influenced by individual and contextual factors. This study specifically examines several factors related to teachers ‘professiona

Long-term outcomes for neoadjuvant versus adjuvant chemotherapy in early breast cancer : meta-analysis of individual patient data from ten randomised trials

BACKGROUND: Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) for early breast cancer can make breast-conserving surgery more feasible and might be more likely to eradicate micrometastatic disease than might the same chemotherapy given after surgery. We investigated the long-term benefits and risks of NACT and the influence of tumour characteristics on outcome with a collaborative meta-analysis of individual patien

Inferring the genetic relationship between brain imaging-derived phenotypes and risk of complex diseases by Mendelian randomization and genome-wide colocalization

Observational studies consistently disclose brain imaging-derived phenotypes (IDPs) as critical markers for early diagnosis of both brain disorders and cardiovascular diseases. However, it remains unclear about the shared genetic landscape between brain IDPs and the risk of brain disorders and cardiovascular diseases, restricting the applications of potential diagnostic techniques through brain ID

Mendelian randomization study reveals a population-specific putative causal effect of type 2 diabetes in risk of cataract

BackgroundThe epidemiological association between type 2 diabetes and cataract has been well established. However, it remains unclear whether the two diseases share a genetic basis, and if so, whether this reflects a putative causal relationship.MethodsWe used East Asian population-based genome-wide association studies (GWAS) summary statistics of type 2 diabetes (Ncase = 36 614, Ncontrol = 155 15
