This article deals with multi-unit questioning turns used in different genres of institutional interactions. Analyzing in detail a corpus of about 400 multiunit questions from health care interactions, court trials, police interrogations, and social welfare office talks from Sweden and Finland (all in the Swedish language), a number of sequential patterns are established. Some of these sequential
Normal ageing in men is associated with a physiological decline in testosterone levels, but adverse environmental or psychosocial factors may also impair testosterone secretion and cause secondary biological changes. In a number of observational or experimental studies in both animals and man, it has been possible to study the influences on gonadal function of stressful life situations. To underst
The recently introduced intrauterine growth curve, based on ultrasonically estimated foetal weights, was retrospectively applied to an inborn population of 883 infants born before 33 gestational weeks at the University Hospital of Lund, during 1985-94. The estimation of birthweight deviation resulted in 630 (71.3%) infants with a birthweight appropriate for gestational age (AGA), 244 (27.6%) infan
Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingens syfte är att undersöka blivande och utexaminerade miljövetare uppfattningar av och förhållningssätt till miljöproblem och till sin profession. Professionaliseringen av miljöarbetet kan ses som en process som skedde till följd av en större samhällsförändring där miljöfrågorna tog plats i samhällsdebatten, vilket innebar att allt fler aktörer börjat arbeta mThe aim of the thesis is to investigate experiences of and ways of relating to environmental issues and towards their profession among a group of graduates in environmentla science. The respondents were either in the end of or had completed an educational program in Environmental sciences with a social science perspective offered at Malmö University. Those who hade completed the program have recen
A new Key Environmental Performance Indicators (KEPIs) approach has been developed considering the perspective of a designer who may like to improve the environmental performance of the products but has limited resources and understanding of complex environmental issues. This approach empowers the designer with indicators like the area of PWB, the amount of precious metals etc which account for th
Abstract in Danish Da Fukushima-katastrofen ramte Japan i dagene efter d. 11. marts 2011, forbløffede det medier i resten af verden, hvordan de japanske massemedier valgte at dække den meget alvorlige og eskalerende begivenhed.

The infrastructure for natural gas distribution can provide the possibility of an evolutionary as opposed to revolutionary introduction of hydrogen as an additive to natural gas (Hythane). In this study, pure natural gas and a hythane blend with 24.8% (vol.) hydrogen have been used to fuel a multi-cylinder heavy-duty natural gas engine.. Some comparisons with pure hydrogen operation are also prese
A model of human eye for experiments in vision research has been developed using PLZT ceramics. This ``artificial eye{''} allows to simulate light scattering caused by cataract in the eye lens. Light scattering of a composite eye lens of the model depends on the electric field applied to a transparent electrooptic PLZT ceramics plate that is attached directly to the lens. The image degradation in
In recent years the Swedish Police Force (SPF) have encountered greater demands on availability and 24/7 services when dealing with errands that are regarded as low priority compared to regular police work, e.g. collecting tips from the public. One attempt to meet these increasing demands was the development of a mobile communications platform that allowed the public to communicate easily with the
There is a growing evidence that neuropeptides may be involved in the pathophysiology of suicidal behavior. A critical review of the literature was conducted to investigate the association between neuropeptides and suicidal behavior. Only articles from peer-reviewed journals were selected for the inclusion in the present review. Twenty-six articles were assessed for eligibility but only 22 studies
