The overall aim of the thesis is to investigate the knowledge problem in regional public transport planning. The knowledge problem is twofold. How do transport policy arrive at the desirable actions they take and how do they assess the alternatives, and what can we say about the contributions of already implemented transport schemes. Paper 1 explores how policy objectives in regional public transp

Medical knowledge is always in motion. It moves from the lab to the office, from a press release to a patient, from an academic journal to a civil servant s desk and then on to a policymaker. These movements matter: value judgements on the validity of certain forms of know­ledge determine the direction of clinical research, and policy decisions are taken in relation to existing knowledge.The compl

Anaerobic digestion of food waste is an attractive and increasingly popular technology within waste management and energy recovery. A better understanding of the microbiology associated with anaerobic digestion of food waste will provide new insight into the operational conditions required for optimizing this process, as well as its potential for utilisation in co-digestion systems. Eighteen full-

Groundwater (GW) is being uncontrollably exploited in various parts of the world resulting from huge needs for water supply as an outcome of population growth and industrialization. Bearing in mind the importance of GW potential assessment in reaching sustainability, this study seeks to use remote sensing (RS)-derived driving factors as an input of the advanced machine learning algorithms (MLAs),

Inflammation is an established risk factor for colorectal cancer. We and others have shown that colorectal cancer patients with elevated cysteinyl leukotriene receptor 2 (CysLT2R) and 15-hydroxyprostaglandin dehydrogenase (15-PGDH) levels exhibit good prognoses. However, both CysLT2R and 15-PGDH, which act as tumour suppressors, are often suppressed in colorectal cancer. We previously reported tha

Epilepsy is a chronic neurological disease with high prevalence and adverse impacts on the quality of life of patients and caregivers. Up to one-third of individuals with epilepsy do not respond to current pharmacotherapy, underscoring the importance of identifying new molecules for epilepsy control. Thalidomide, the first synthetized phthalimide, is a neuroactive molecule with anti-seizure drug p

Software design in e-commerce can be improved with user data through controlled experiments (i.e. A/B tests) to better meet user needs. Machine learning-based algorithmic optimization techniques extends the approach to large number of variables to personalize software to different user needs. So far the optimization techniques has only been applied to optimize software of low complexity, such as c

Objectives The aim of this study is to determine diagnostic patterns in the prehospital paediatric population, age distribution, the level of monitoring and the treatment initiated in the prehospital paediatric case. Hypothesis was that advanced prehospital interventions are rare in the paediatric patient population. Setting We performed a retrospective population-based registry cohort study of ch

BACKGROUND: Anastomotic stricture (AS) is the most frequently occurring complication that occurs after esophageal atresia (EA) repair. Nevertheless, the pathogenesis remains primarily unknown and there is inadequate knowledge regarding the risk factors for AS. Therefore, a systematic review of the literature and a meta-analysis was performed to investigate whether gender and birth weight were risk

Tyendet (tjänstehjon) er en ofte overset gruppe i historieskrivningen. For første gang fortælles deres historie i en samlet oversigt.I 2021 er det 100 år siden, at tyendeloven blev ophævet. Der blev dermed sat punktum for århundreders tilsidesættelse af tjenestefolks rettigheder. F.eks. var det nu slut med den forhadte skudsmålsbog, og det var ikke længere tilladt at slå sine tjenestepiger og -drenge. Denne bog skildrer for første gang tjenestefolkets historie som en samlet fortælling. Den beskæftiger sig med både karle og pige

Against the backdrop of the ecological and climate emergencies and several other deep crises, advocates of degrowth call for democratic transitions towards societies that can thrive beyond economic growth within ecological boundaries while being socially equitable. In recent years, scholarship has emerged that brings together the emerging degrowth paradigm with insights from political economy. Yet
