Association between symtoms of acute cystitis and finding bladder cancer in Swedish standardized athway for macroscoic hematuria

Standardized Care Pathway (SCP) for patients presenting with macroscopic haematuria was introduced in Sweden in 2015. In contrast to neighbouring countries, the Swedish model includes all patients with macroscopic haematuria above the age of 50, notwithstanding obvious causes. The aim of this study was to characterize the patients referred within the SCP and the presence of acute cystitis.All pati

Systemic Economic Offences as International Crimes : Theorising a New Paradigm of Mass Criminality

This open access book asks whether international economic crime can qualify as an international crime and be prosecuted as such.Taking a four-part approach to the question, it traces the origins of the concept of international economic crime, and draws the line between ordinary economic crimes and economic offences of international significance. To this end, it examines six cases involving the com

Beyond sharing good practice : exploring academic developers’ use of teacher-generated artefacts

While sharing good teaching practice is at the core of most academic developers’ professional roles, little systematic evidence has been collected on this topic so far. This paper investigates if, how and for what specific purposes academic developers collect and share teaching artefacts. We report on an exploratory, survey-based study among academic developers from around the world. Our findings

Korrelationsutvärdering av lustgasutsläpp på Klagshamns ARV med hjälp av neurala nätverk

Utsläpp av lustgas från avloppsreningsverk (ARV) utgör en betydande klimatpåverkan och är starkt kopplade till utökad biologisk kväveavskiljning. Syftet med detta arbete har varit att analysera sambanden mellan processparametrar och lustgasutsläpp vid Klagshamns av-loppsreningsverk samt att undersöka hur datadriven modellering kan användas som stöd för driftoptimering. Inledningsvis genomfördes en

Tool for Preliminary Design of Shell-and-Tube Heat Exchangers for Biogas Upgrading

Rå biogas är varm, mättad med vatten och innehåller små mängder av korrosiva spårämnen när den lämnar rötkammaren. I detta skick kan gasen inte levereras till uppgraderingsenheten som tar bort koldioxid, vattenånga och andra föroreningar för att leverera biometan som uppfyller fastställda kvalitetskrav. Den höga fuktigheten kombinerat med reaktiva ämnen leder till okontrollerad kondensation och koRaw biogas leaving an anaerobic digester is warm, saturated with water vapor, and contains small amounts of corrosive trace compounds. In this state, the gas cannot be fed directly to an upgrading system, where carbon dioxide, water vapor and other contaminants are removed to produce biomethane that meets a predefined quality. High humidity combined with reactive species promotes uncontrolled cond

From AcciMap to AgileMap: An Iterative Approach to Revealing Interactive Complexities and Risk in Wildfire Management

Wildfire management is a complex sociotechnical system where enterprise and strategic level decisions significantly impact operational safety. This research explores iterating Rasmussen’s AcciMap through participatory co-design to enhance sensemaking and systems thinking in the U.S. Forest Service. An evolving series of AcciMap-inspired visualizations made from the Eicks Fire Organizational Report

Sångkartan : Att kombinera klassisk sångteknik med klassisk teaterteknik

Titel: Sångkartan Ämne/område: Hur fungerar sångkartan som redskap i arbetet med klassisk repertoar för sångare? Sångkartan är ett verktyg för att arbeta med instudering av ett vokalt parti, baserad på metoder från Stanislavskijs teatertekniker. Tillvägagångssätt: Jag försöker använda sångkartan på samma sätt som jag gjort under min musikalteaterutbilning, fast nu i min klassiska sångutbildning däTitle: The Songchart The topic of this study: How can the song chart be used as a tool in singers’ work with classical repertoire? The Songchart is a tool to use in the work with interpretation with a vocal part, based on methods by Stanislavsky’s theatre techniques. The methods I used were: I try to use the song chart in the same way as I did during my muscial theatre studies, though now in my cl

Optimising Industrial Buildings in India: A calibrated building performance simulation case study

India's buildings sector accounts for 41% of national electricity consumption, yet studies incorporating calibrated whole-building energy simulation with thermal comfort evaluation of manufacturing facilities to reduce the industry’s electricity consumption remain scarce, leaving designers without evidence to prioritise passive strategies for this building typology. This study characterises th

Determining Gaps in Evacuation Design Practice Affecting People with Disabilities

While accessibility in building design is now a widely adopted principle with the industry increasingly adopting inclusive practices, its integration into evacuation provisions remains limited and inconsistently applied across the world. This study examines gaps in evacuation design practices affecting occupants with disabilities through a comparative review of ten building codes and standards, su

Evacuation Behaviour of Deaf People

Deaf and hard of hearing individuals encounter distinct barriers during building fire evacuations, yet empirical evidence on their evacuation behaviour remains largely absent from the Human Behaviour in Fire literature. This study addresses this gap through a mixed methods approach combining an unannounced evacuation drill conducted at an institution for deaf individuals (N = 21) with semi structu

Characterization of Protein Corona Formation, and Enzymatic Activity upon Interaction with Tyre Wear Particles in the Circulatory Systems

Nya miljö- och hälsohotet - Däckpartiklar Under de senaste åren har miljöfrågan blivit en alltmer närvarande del av våra liv, under samtal med kollegor, på morgonnyheterna eller längs de trafikerade vägarna hör vi ständigt denna fråga. Diskussionerna kretsar oftast kring avgasföroreningar och dess påverkan på vårt klimat. Samtidigt finns det betydligt mindre uppmärksammade orsaker till föroreningIn recent years, tyre wear particles (TWPs) have been included in the discussions regarding air pollution, which is a growing global concern. Although exhaust emissions have been extensively studied and are being reformed towards better alternatives, there is still a wide knowledge gap regarding non-exhaust emissions such as TWPs. Most studies regarding TWPs focus on microplastics environmental co

Tungsten carbide and tungsten carbide cobalt nanoparticles interactions with blood proteins – The formation of protein corona, effect on enzymatic activity and secondary structure

Dubbdäckens nanopartiklar – en dold hälsorisk? När de allra flesta människor tänker på trafikutsläpp tänker de nog oftast på de avgaser som bilar släpper ut som bidrar till bland annat växthuseffekten. Men faktum är att även slitage av däck och dubbdäck släpper ut stora mängder mikroskopiska partiklar, även kallade nanopartiklar. Dessa nanopartiklar kan bestå av både gummi från däcken och metallerIt is a known fact that traffic emissions are an environmental hazard. The nanoparticles (NPs) released from traffic emissions are composed of both plastics and rubber materials from the breakdown of tyres, so-called tyre wear particles, as well as metallics such as tungsten carbide (WC) and tungsten carbide cobalt (WC-Co) from the wear of studded tyres. Although research regarding the environment

A comparative assessment of GIS-based data mining models and a novel ensemble model in groundwater well potential mapping

In recent years, application of ensemble models has been increased tremendously in various types of natural hazard assessment such as landslides and floods. However, application of this kind of robust models in groundwater potential mapping is relatively new. This study applied four data mining algorithms including AdaBoost, Bagging, generalized additive model (GAM), and Naive Bayes (NB) models to
