Asthma and chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) or without (CRSsNP) are chronic respiratory diseases. These two disorders often co-exist based on common anatomical, immunological, histopathological, and pathophysiological basis. Usually, asthma with comorbid CRSwNP is driven by type 2 (T2) inflammation which predisposes to more severe, often intractable, disease. In the past two decad

The TOI-1130 is a known planetary system around a K-dwarf consisting of a gas giant planet, TOI-1130 c on an 8.4-day orbit that is accompanied by an inner Neptune-sized planet, TOI-1130 b, with an orbital period of 4.1 days. We collected precise radial velocity (RV) measurements of TOI-1130 with the HARPS and PFS spectrographs as part of our ongoing RV follow-up program. We performed a photodynami

Detta arbete är en personlig analys med målet att stegvis få kunskap kring och slutligen definiera den musikaliska rösten hos artisten som filmkompositör. Med hjälp av en musikanalytisk metod, en undersökning och reflektioner är målet att kartlägga de huvudsakliga musikaliska och icke-musikaliska aspekterna som bygger den konstnärliga stilen.This work is a personal step by step analysis with the goal of defining the musical voice of the artist as a film composer. With the use of a music analytical method, research and reflections the aim is to map out the major musical and non-musical aspects that build the artistic style.

The purpose of this paper is to explore what kind of effect mental training and physical activity can have on a musician’s daily life and performance. In order to answer my question, I have conducted interviews with working musicians who work in different fields such as elementary school, university, one-on-one teaching and orchestra musicians, where I asked them about their experience with mental

Som musiker arbetar jag dagligen med kontrabasen som mitt huvudsakliga instrument. Och jag hade en grundläggande förståelse hur instrumentet fungerade. Men vad är det som gör varje enskilt instrument så unikt i fråga om klang och utformande? I den kommenterande delen av mitt examensarbete redogör jag för mig själv hur mitt huvudinstrument, kontrabasen är uppbyggd genom att själv bygga ett instrumeAs a musician I’m working daily with the contrabass as my main instrument. I had a basic understanding of how the instrument worked. But what makes each individual instrument so unique in terms of sound and design? In the commentary section of my artistic research, I explain to myself how my main instrument, the contrabass is constructed by building one myself from raw material. And with this expe

Background and aims: Appendectomy has historically been the standard treatment of acute appendicitis, but lately, conservative treatment of uncomplicated acute appendicitis with antibiotics has successfully been used in selected patients. Complicated acute appendicitis is often treated conservatively initially, but may benefit from interval appendectomy due to the higher risk ofappendiceal maligna

The purpose of this thesis was to study secondary school students' motivation to learn a second foreign language in addition to English. In addition to the empirical investigation of L3 motivation over a program of study and the testing of the widely-held assumption that L2 English impacts negatively on L3 motivation, the aim was also to contribute to the conceptual development of self-based motiv

Imorgon lördag är det ett år sedan Mahsa Jina Amini mördades av moralpolisen i Teheran. Sedan dess har 600 demonstranter dödats i protesterna mot förtrycket i Iran. Det är hög tid att Sverige och väst ställer sig bakom det iranska folkets kamp för frihet, skriver Arvin och Ardavan Khoshnood.Tomorrow, Saturday, it will be one year since Mahsa Jina Amini was murdered by the morality police in Tehran. Since then, 600 protesters have been killed in the protests against the repression in Iran. It is high time that Sweden and the West stand behind the Iranian people's fight for freedom, write Arvin and Ardavan Khoshnood.

Though digital platforms (e.g., social media) are often used to promote unhealthy, calorie-dense foods, the dynamics characterizing consumers' engagement with healthy nutrition-based content (e.g., as stimulated trough gamification) on these platforms remains tenuous, warranting further exploration. Addressing this gap, we deploy a qualitative field study and two experiments to show that challenge

How can openness, intuition and external creative tools be valuable assets to the creative process? In this thesis, I explore that question as it relates to three distinct perspectives: my reflections on my own approach, other artists’ thoughts on the subject and the composition of my orchestral piece "let me cry" (2022). My findings are that by integrating openness, intuition, and exte

In the contemporary global context, the global focus on reducing environmental impacts in any formats has intensified. This study intends to assess the environmental impacts and life cycle costs associated with the A1-A5 stages (production and construction stages) of the Köping Port project and eight additional proposed scenarios. The Solidification/ Stabilization method along with the in-situ tec

This paper deals with the issue of isotropic heat conduction in thermomechanical large-strain problems. The aim of the paper is a comparison of different variants of Fourier’s law used in the literature for a large strain problem. In particular, Fourier’s law is specified either in the reference or in the deformed configuration by using different options of heat flux density vectors which are pres
