In the last decades, numerous post-mortem case series have documented chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) in former contact-sport athletes, though reports of CTE pathology in former soccer players are scarce. This study presents a clinicopathological case of a former professional soccer player with young-onset dementia. The patient experienced early onset progressive cognitive decline and devel

N-2030 is an autonomous car-sharing interior concept that suggests what we humans could be doing in the future of vehicles. Dead time during travelling opens up new abilities of spending time. N-2030 has a focus point on investigating how people have and are using free time in everyday life. Fully autonomous vehicles opens up an opportunity to break the tradition of what to do in a future car int

Continuous use of cloud computing and cloud sourcing has received limited research attention compared to cloud adoption. There are indications that cloud sourcing benefits are not easy to reap in continuous use for companies, calling for more research on the continuance use of cloud computing. The current study is one of the first studies of the continuance use of cloud computing processes at the

In our meta-study from 2022, “A Literature Review and Meta-Analysis of the Effects of Lockdowns on COVID-19 Mortality – II,” we find that the effect of lockdowns—also referred to as ‘Covid restrictions,’ ‘social distancing measures,’ etc.—on mortality was negligible. The first version of our meta-study received criticism from Banholzer, et al. (2022). The authors raised “concerns regarding the sub

Detta examensarbetes huvudsyfte var att jämföra säkerhetsfaktorerna för den svenska och den danska beräkningsmetodiken i markförhållanden sand och lera ovanpå moränlera. Den verkliga bärförmågan i markförhållandena togs fram genom CAPWAP-mätningar. Säkerhetsfaktorn med den svenska beräkningsmetodiken blev 2.7 och säkerhetsfaktorn med den danska beräkningsmetodiken blev 1.3. Detta visar att den sve

IKZF1 deletions are an established prognostic factor in childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). However, their relevance in patients with good risk genetics, namely ETV6::RUNX1 and high hyperdiploid (HeH), ALL remains unclear. We assessed the prognostic impact of IKZF1 deletions in 939 ETV6::RUNX1 and 968 HeH ALL patients by evaluating data from 16 trials from 9 study groups. Only 3% of ETV6

Comparing contemporary legislation and social debates to films and TV-shows from the 2000s and 2010s, this study shows a change in approach to the subject of sexual assault from an intersectional angle. The analysis describes a more individual, neo-liberal angle in the early 2000s, and a more holistic and societal angle in the 2010s. With the intersectional approach, the study finds that whiteness

This project aims to envision the future of virtual collaboration in the year 2030. Global trends show that ever since the Covid-19 pandemic, hybrid work has become a standard in almost all job sectors, making virtual collaboration crucial for the success of hybrid teams. Although the option to work from home partially or completely has well documented outcomes of higher employee productivity and

A stochastic hierarchical model for the evolution of low grade gliomas is proposed. Starting with the description of cell motion using a piecewise diffusion Markov process (PDifMP) at the cellular level, we derive an equation for the density of the transition probability of this Markov process based on the generalised Fokker–Planck equation. Then, a macroscopic model is derived via parabolic limit

Background: Clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP)—the age-related clonal expansion of blood stem cells with leukemia-associated mutations—is a novel cardiovascular risk factor. Whether CHIP remains prognostic in individuals with established atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) is less clear. Objectives: This study tested whether CHIP predicts adverse outcomes in individu

Through this research, I intend to investigate the fascinating domain of Ayahuasca documentary films. This emerging subgenre showcases explorers and scientists reconnecting with nature and spirituality, which I introduced to the reader through my explorative one-year master's thesis, A Study of Ayahuasca Documentary Film (2020). Furthermore, in the present study, I further my research by looki

Background: Current evidence suggests that use of intracoronary imaging during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) of the left main coronary artery (LMCA) reduces mortality. However, there is a scarcity of data on the overall role of intracoronary imaging, particularly in other non-LMCA proximal coronary artery lesions. We aimed to investigate the association of use of intracoronary imaging o

Across the world are small local agencies connected to the United Nations. Unlike the larger bureaucratic organs that make up the UN, these smaller specialized agencies do not work to frame the founding ideals of the UN which are decided on at the highest levels within the institution, but to interpret, carry out, and monitor different mandates or programs at the local level. These agencies transl

III−V nanowire (NW) photovoltaic devices promise high efficiencies at reduced materials usage. However, research has so far focused on small devices, mostly ≤1 mm2. In this study, the upscaling potential of axial junction InP NW photovoltaic devices is investigated. Device processing was carried out on a full 2″ wafer, with device sizes up to 1 cm2, which is a significant increase from the mm-scal
