Hans Christian Andersen's tale "The Marsh King's Daughter" (1858) is analysed in relation to Birgitta Trotzig's prose tale of the same title, Dykungens dotter (1985), with the emphasis on Andersen's tale which would seem to be a pious Christian morality in which evil is destroyed and the powers of light conquer darkness. At the same time, Andersen's symbols make clear that darkness is a necessary

The BRCA1 gene is thought to exert its main function early in life. We, therefore, studied the effects of BRCA1 mutations on birth weight and birth length. This was carried out by comparing 33 women with and without mutations. Birth weight and length were obtained from a self-administered questionnaire. BRCA1 mutations carriers had a significantly lower birth weight (P = 0.0041) compared with non-

Syftet med denna framställning är att aktivera en diskussion kring öppna och dolda värden i gruppforskning. Med sådana värden avses här explicit eller implicit uttryckta önskvärda tillstånd i grupper. Det kan röra sig om t.ex. "effektivitet", "ideala samverkanssituationer", "demokrati" eller "arbetsgrupp enligt Bion". För att undersöka förekomsten av sådana genomgicks samtliga bidrag av till grupp

As an ambition to stress the construction of an external and an internal dimension within law I have chosen to study the non-pecuniary damages to victims of crime. The foundation for these damages came from the deep structure of law about the idea that the right to integrity of the human body and soul are one of the corner- stones in the state governed by law. But when it comes to estimating the a

Rapporten beskriver prototyper av kontinuerliga tvåfraktionsinsamlare för övervakning av partikulära luftföroreningar i arbetsmiljö som har konstruerats. En prototyp är personburen och ger möjligheter till insamling av två partikelstorleksfraktioner i 18 diskreta intervall. PIXE-metoden (analys med partikelinducerad röntgenstrålning) används för multielementanalys av de erhållna proven. Även med m

It has been proposed that hyaluronan-binding proteoglycans play an important role as guiding cues during neural crest (NC) cell migration, but their precise function has not been elucidated. In this study, we examine the distribution, structure and putative role of the two major hyaluronan-binding proteoglycans, PG-M/versicans and aggrecan, during the course of avian NC development. PG-M/versicans

Context: There are limited reliable epidemiological data concerning whether individuals with benign/malignant parathyroid tumor are at an elevated risk of developing nonendocrine malignancies or vice versa. Objective: The objective of the study was to quantify these risks, especially risk of parathyroid tumors after other cancers. Design: This was a population-based retrospective cohort study. Par

This research investigated how the employees of a company experienced a VR-model of an office building that was to be their future work place and how that VR-experience com¬pared with the employees’ experience of the completed building. About two years after the VR-showings the building was completed and the staff had moved into the building. The results for the employees who saw the VR-presentati

Quantitative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-based biomarkers, which capture physiological and functional tumor processes, were evaluated as imaging surrogates of early tumor response following chemoradiotherapy in glioma patients. A multiparametric extension of a voxel-based analysis, referred as the parametric response map (PRM), was applied to quantitative MRI maps to test the predictive poten

Autoantibodies against glutamic acid decarboxylase 65 (GADA) are found frequently in patients with autoimmune diabetes. Immunoglobulin (Ig)G(1) is the most frequent subclass among the GADA IgG subclasses. IgG(4) is a more common subclass in latent autoimmune diabetes in adults (LADA) at clinical onset compared to type 1 diabetes. The aim of this work was to study the different GADA-IgG subclass pr

Syftet med denna kvantitativa studie var att följa upp extremt för tidigt födda (före vecka 29) när de nått vuxen ålder. De extremt för tidigt födda jämfördes med en kontrollgrupp bestående av jämnåriga födda i fullgången tid. Deltagarna i studien hämtades från en uppföljningsstudie av extremt för tidigt födda som tidigare följts upp vid 10 och 18 års ålder. Deltagarna var vid tiden för studien 27The aim of this quantitative study was to follow up children born extremely preterm (before week 29) in adulthood. The group of extremely preterm adults was compared to peers born at term. The extremely preterm and the control group have previously been followed up at ages 10 and 18. At the time of this study the participants were 27-28 years old. Questionnaires were sent to the two groups and 77
