Studiens syfte var att undersöka om det fanns ett samband mellan anställningsotrygghet och upplevt psykiska välmående med det sociala samspelet mellan kollegor som en medierande effekt. Detta undersöktes genom en webbaserad enkät, där upplevt psykiskt välmående, anställningsotrygghet och det sociala samspelet mättes med konstruktestade formulär. Deltagarna (N=87) var anställda i livsmedelsbutiker The purpose of the study was to examine if there is a covariance between job insecurity and the experienced mental well-being with the factor social interaction between co-workers as a mediating effect. This was studied through a web survey where experienced mental well-being, social interaction and job insecurity was measured with construct validated surveys. The participants (N=87) were employee

Destructive leadership is a phenomenon widely known in organizations and may have severe consequences in high-risk environments such as the construction industry. The present study investigated the measurement of and relationship between safety climate, destructive leadership, and risk behavior on 2 construction sites in Sweden. It was assumed that the Destrudo-L exhibits at least an acceptable le

Sinusitis is a common disease caused by a virus or bacteria, with 84% to 91% of cases caused by a viral pathogen. However, physicians prescribe antibiotics for this disease in 85% of all cases. GPX Medical is a company working on the development of a medical device which, by means of absorption spectroscopy, can determine whether the disease is caused by virus or bacteria supporting, thus, the doc

The purpose of this essay is to how internal armed conflict in Nepal affected children. Besides that how Nepal has implemented the UN Convention on the Rights of Child during the conflict. It has been estimated that over 2 million children have been killed in armed conflict, another 6 million have been rendered permanently disabled and more than 250, 000 children continue to be exploited as child

Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: Grässjön ligger på kommungränsen mellan Osby och Östra Göinge, och har varit utsatt för stora förändringar på 18- och 1900-talen, bl. a. sänkningsprojekt och ändrade flöden. Sjön ingår i Tommaboda/Ekeshultsån, som är en del av Skräbeåns avrinningssystem - en av de åar som rinner ut i Hanöbukten. Grässjön var före 1909 en del av den tills då mycket större VielånThere are records of lowering of the water level in a lot of the Swedish lakes from the middle of the 1700th century. The aim was gaining more areable land to meet the needs of more food to support the expanding population. In areas with top soil which contents of clay or loam as in the southwest of Scania in southern Sweden this was proven to be a successful way expanding the total outcome of the

Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: I Australien är intresset stort för kustprocesser, och en sådan process är masstransport av sand i kustnära områden. Utmed östra Australiens kust finns stora områden med sanddyner och de flesta stränder är sandstränder. I Queensland finns till och med mycket stora öar som består av sand. Den största av dessa öar heter Fraser Island. Många forskare tror att sand In SE Australia, sediments are moved northwards by longshore currents and deposited as barriers, dunes, and estuarine or inner shelf deposits. According to Roy & Thom (1981), the magnitude and complexity of the deposition morphology increase from south to north. Modelling by Cowell, Roy, and Jones (1995) shows that the steepness of the regional substrate is the primary influence on coastal mor

This paper describes a study examining four different GARCH models AR(1)-GARCH(1,1), AR(1)-EGARCH(1,1), AR(1)-APGARCH(1,1) and AR(1)-GJR-GARCH(1,1), and their ability to predict future volatility and thereby providing more reliable estimates for Value-at-Risk. The study is based on daily observations for the return of the OMX Stockholm 30 Index, during the time period 31st December 1996 to 29th De

In this study child pornography offence and more stringent measures against child pornography on the Internet are discussed. Furthermore, the study explores several ways and means of effectively combating child pornography. Thus, the intention with this essay is to consider various provisions that should be taken in order to achieve a more effective combating of child pornography on the Internet.

Type 1 diabetes is a chronic autoimmune disease requiring insulin treatment for survival. Prolonged duration of type 1 diabetes is associated with increased risk of microvascular complications. Although chronic hyperglycemia and diabetes duration have been considered as the major risk factors for vascular complications, this is not universally seen among all patients. Persons with long-term type 1

Background and objective: The pharmacokinetics of mycophenolic acid (MPA) are complex, with large interindividual variability over time. There are also well documented interactions with ciclosporin, and assessment of MPA exposure is therefore necessary when reducing or stopping ciclosporin therapy. Here we report on the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic behaviour of MPA in renal transplant patie

Purpose. When performing perimetry, refracting subjects with central visual field loss, and in emmetropization studies, it is important to accurately measure peripheral refractive errors. Traditional methods for foveal refraction often give uncertain results in eccentric angles as a result of the large aberrations and the reduced retinal function. The aim of this study is therefore to compare and

Osteoporosis has been recognized as a major public health problem for less than two decades. The increasing incidence of fragility fractures, such as vertebral, hip, and wrist fractures, first became apparent from epidemiological studies in the early and mid-1980s, when effective treatment was virtually unavailable. Pharmacological therapies that effectively reduce the number of fractures by impro

The old beech forest (250–300 yr) at Bjurkärr (core area 30 ha) in the province of Småland, S Sweden, was surveyed for epiphytic lichens of conservation concern in 1993–94. Several rare red-listed lichens were recorded, many with large populations. In 2011 the most endangered lichens were resurveyed due to the incorporation of Bjurkärr in the forthcoming national park of Lake Åsnen. Most species o

Purpose: Studies of desmopressin in children with primary nocturnal enuresis show a greater than 90% decrease in wet nights in 20% to 30%, a 50% to less than 90% decrease in 20% to 40% and less than a 50% decrease in up to 60%. Insufficient response to desmopressin is attributable to various factors, including differences in the primary nocturnal enuresis definition, underlying bladder dysfunction

Objective. Overactive bladder (OAB) is a chronic condition that has a profound impact on health-related quality of life (HRQoL). This study measured changes in bother of OAB symptoms and self-perceived HRQoL over 6 months in patients treated with extended-release (ER) tolterodine in a naturalistic setting. Material and methods. This was a prospective, single-cohort observational study of patients

Background: Lumbar spine radiography has limited diagnostic value but low radiation dose compared with computed tomography (CT). The average effective radiation dose from lumbar spine radiography is about 1.1 mSv. Low-dose lumbar spine CT may be an alternative to increase the diagnostic value at low radiation dose, around 1 mSv. Purpose: To determine the optimal settings for low-dose lumbar spine

We have investigated the structure of a microbial community in semi-natural sandy grassland in southeast Sweden. The sand is rich in lime, but in most places the soil is decalcified in the upper layers, and therefore this site shows a large variation in pH within short distances. We collected samples at three different soil depths (0-10 cm, 10-20 cm and 20-30 cm) and found the pH to range from 5 t

A major challenge for a person with diabetes is to adapt insulin dosage regimens and food intake to keep blood glucose within tolerable limits during daily life activities. The early knowledge about the effects of inputs on glycemia would provide the patients with invaluable information for appropriate on-the-spot decision making concerning the management of the disease. Against this background, i
