The objective of this scoping review is to offer a thorough overview of disaster preparedness among hospitals in
The composition of food includes water, fat, carbohydrates, protein, etc. which are eaten by humans to get nutritional value to live life. However, the pervasive consumption of adulterated food poses a serious threat to people of all ages. This situation is correlated to victims of around 2.5 million people annually. Food adulteration not only intertwines with human rights but also threatens our b
Physical activity is essential for health and well-being, as recognized by the World Health Organization (WHO), which defines it as any bodily movement produced by skeletal muscles that requires energy expenditure. Recommended levels of physical activity vary depending on age, with children needing at least 60 minutes per day and adults requiring 150–300 minutes of moderate-intensity activity per
Recently, a newly developed family of decoders named as Guessing Random Additive Noise Decoder (GRAND) has been gaining attention. The key idea of the decoder is to look for the most probable error vectors that interacted with the transmitted message, producing the received block. Among the different variations of the algorithm, the soft-input soft-output (SISO) decoder, known as SO-GRAND, emerges
Unravelling the home is an anecdotal mapping of the house and the objects within it to seek a deeper understanding of what a home is constructed of. Through prints, photographs, observations, interviews and drawings, the house is slowly unravelled to visualise the material and the immaterial components, including the norms and narratives, that makes it a home. The notion of the home as a physical
Making live, single-celled organisms fluoresce Protist is a term for a type of organism that has a nucleus and is not an animal, plant or fungus. Most protists are single-celled and can be found in all types of environments across the planet. Protists are highly diverse and understudied, and researching protists directly from the environment has many challenges. One method for researching microbe
This thesis focuses on the development of an image stabilization system for body-worn cameras. Body-worn cameras are frequently used in dynamic situations, exposing them to intense movements. Capturing sharp, high-quality footage in these conditions requires effective image stabilization systems. This investigation involved mapping the nature of the disturbances experienced by the body-worn camera
The global food system is a cause of the worldwide poly-crisis in climate change and ecological decay. Ecological food systems have been emerging to contest the ruinous food production model. This thesis explores one branch of ecological food production: urban farming. Focused on the Swedish context, cases in Växjö, Malmö, and Göteborg were analyzed to examine how urban farms and involved agents n
Är åldersspecifika olikheter på proteinnivå nyckeln till nya behandlingar? Behovet av nya behandlingsmetoder för leukemi är ett faktum. I denna studien har vi undersökt leukemiceller från barn och vuxna på proteinnivå. Genom att identifiera åldersrelaterade olikheter kan dessa utnyttjas i framtida utveckling av behandlingar riktade mot särskilda varianter av leukemi för barn och vuxna. Leukemi
Avloppsreningsmetod för att rena dricksvatten Målet med dricksvattenrening är att bli av med oönskade ämnen i vattnet, så som sjukdomsframkallande bakterier och organiskt material. Detta säkerställer inte bara vattnets säkerhet utan också dess smak, lukt och utseende. Det finns flera olika metoder för att rena vatten, och vilken metod som används beror på vattnets kvalitet och ursprung, samt vilkAt the drinking water treatment plant (DWTP) at Ringsjöverket (Sweden, Stehag), where this project is executed, a process of rapid sand filter (RSF) and slow sand filter (SSF) is used as a part in treating surface water into drinking water. The Moving bed biofilm reactor (MBBR) is a simple and strong biological process that has been shown to be effective in treating polluted raw water from nitroge
Utvecklingen av digitala 3D stadsmodeller i städer har ökat de senaste åren där fokus mestadels varit på byggnader. I den här studien presenteras transportinfrastruktur med olika detaljnivåer (LoD). Det svenska verksamhetssystemet inom transport NVDB samt kommunala trafikdata länkas till en informationsmodell som heter 3CIM. Via digitaliserade ytor i form av trafikområden kopplas väglänks-ID fThe developement of digital 3D city models in cities has increased during recent years with focus on mostly buildings. In this study transport infrastructure is presented with different levels of detail (LoD). The Swedish transportationssystem NVDB and municipality trafficdata are linked to an informationmodel 3CIM. Through digitized trafficareas a road-link id is used to enrich areas with att
Detta examensarbete är en studie av mellanrum i urban miljö. Mellanrum finns överallt runt omkring oss, men de är rum de flesta av oss sällan tänker på. Genom studier i utvalda urbana områden och konstnärligt utforskande undersöker arbetet hur mellanrum kan definieras, deras betydelse för stadsmiljön och hur vi kan involvera dem i en arkitektonisk process. Projektet syftar till att öka förståelse
The buildings and construction sector plays a key role for the European Union to achieve its climate targets. Continuous failure of the sector ́s climate mitigation has brought up a rising discussion about the compatibility of infinite economic growth and long-term socio-ecological sustainability. Grounded in the concept of degrowth, this study analyzes the implicit sustainability understandings a
Amphibians are the most rapidly declining vertebrate class globally and are especially vulnerable to habitat fragmentation causing population isolation. The genetic consequences of population size reduction, inbreeding and genetic drift, can have detrimental effects on the long-term viability of amphibian species, often leading to extinction. Population genomics approaches have become a crucial to
Spatial transcriptomics, a powerful technique that merges sequencing and spatial data, offers unprecedented resolution for studying gene expression within tissues. This study focuses on developing a pipeline to design probes for Multiplexed Error-Robust Fluorescence In Situ Hybridisation (MERFISH) experiments to investigate the spatial distribution of the lung microbiome. Metagenomic data analysis
From Strands to Wires All the genetic information required to develop and maintain an organism is packed tightly into the molecule known as DNA. Determining the order of the four bases, which are the building blocks of DNA, enables the identification of a DNA segment. Modern disease diagnostics use this identification method, known as DNA sequencing, to inspect genetic integrity. Thus, it is vita
Spatial omics allows for the investigation of the Tumor Immune Microenvironment (TIME). Stratifying patients by their TIMEs contributes with insights on tumor immune escape, and help in tumor drug targeting. Tools to investigate such spatial omics approaches suffer from high costs and limited direct clinical applicability. We address this issue by proposing a Machine Learning model which learns to
The aim of this research project was to create a bioinformatic image analysis pipeline for the investigation of lymphocytes in healthy human lungs. The lung is an important organ to study as it provides a fast way for pathogens to enter the body. Therefore, the pulmonary immune system must be further investigated in both healthy and diseased tissue. In order to do comparative studies, we need to c
