BACKGROUND: Summary measures of health are essential in making estimates of health status that are comparable across time and place. They can be used for assessing the performance of health systems, informing effective policy making, and monitoring the progress of nations toward achievement of sustainable development goals. The Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, and Risk Factors Study 2015 (GBD

This thesis is a collection of four experimental studies, three of which were preregistered, concerning the effects of French gender-fair forms on mental representations of gender and on processing in reading among adult L1 speakers of French.

In an attempt to provide an explanation for the previously reported effect of pregnancy on the Lewis phenotype of erythrocytes, the level of Leb-active glycolipid in serum was compared with the reactions of erythrocytes, using samples obtained from 73 nonpregnant women, 74 women at the time of delivery, and 2 women at weekly intervals during their pregnancy. In this Swedish population, the frequen

There is a growing number of wind turbines installed in cold temperature zones as a result of the restricted space for new construction. Due to ice deposition on the turbine blades, the increasing installation of wind turbines in freezing temperature areas presents many challenges: ice accumulation increases weight, unbalances the rotor, diminishes aerodynamic efficiency, and creates safety issues

Popular science The eddy-covariance (EC) method is one of the most important methods to measure gas and energy fluxes between biosphere and atmosphere at ecosystem level. This method was applied above the floor of a boreal forest in Norunda, central Sweden, at 1.5 m height. The objective was to measure the energy and carbon dioxide (CO2) fluxes from the soil and the understory vegetation to the at
