Popular Abstract in Swedish Samhällets stöd, service och vård till människor med psykiska funktionshinder har under de senaste decennierna genomgått stora förändringar. Det har skett en övergång från slutna till samhällsbaserade öppna vårdformer. De kraftiga nedskärningarna av den sjukhusbaserade psykiatriska vården har emellertid långt ifrån alltid ersatts med ett heltäckande och fungerande vård-

The European Union (EU) has laid down very clear objectives for the reduction of greenhouse gases in the hope that it will prevent or mitigate climate change. Political incentives are used to make the power industry adopt changes in order to reach these EU targets. In this thesis, some solutions that could help power companies meet the EU objectives are evaluated. Thermodynamic models have been de

BACKGROUND:: In 2006, a new genetic variant of Chlamydia trachomatis (nvCT) was discovered in Sweden. Clinical manifestations of this infection were studied in a high-risk population. METHODS:: During 2007, a prospective case-control study on sexual lifestyle and urogenital infections was performed at the Centre for Sexual Health (CSH), affiliated to Malmo University Hospital. A total of 629 C. tr

Popular Abstract in Swedish Vad pysslar kräftorna med? Kräftor äter allt! Jag har visat att kräftor äter gamla blad från träd, alger, vattenväxter och även smådjur som till exempel sländlarver, iglar och sövattensgråsuggor. Dessa olika typer av mat har olika näringsvärde. Om vi jämför med vad vi äter så är det ju uppenbart att t.ex. västerbottenpaj och kokta kräftor har olika näringsvärde. Pajen I show that crayfish consume detritus, algae, macrophytes, and an array of invertebrates. Crayfish were found to reduce invertebrate densities. However, prey mobility seemed to be a key factor regulating the strength of interactions between crayfish and prey. Since crayfish seek to maximize growth, they benefit from feeding on invertebrates, shown to promote high growth rates. I found crayfish to

This thesis comprises three different topics within the field of tribology. First, design functions for analyses of slider bearings are developed. Second, a lubricant model applied to elastohydrodynamically lubricated (EHL) line contacts considering wall-slip is presented. Finally, an experimental apparatus for investigations of lubricants at high pressures is presented. The design of hydrodynami

Objective . The management of pancreatic pseudocysts varies, based mainly on local traditions, resources and expertise. No prospective, randomized study has been done comparing different approaches to treatment. The aim of the present study was to identify current treatment strategies in Sweden. Material and methods. A questionnaire comprising 12 questions was e-mailed to the surgical departments

Human Papillomavirus (HPV)-based management of women with borderline (ASCUS) or mildly abnormal (CINI) cervical cytology has been extensively studied in the research setting. We wished to assess safety and healthcare resource use of a real-life healthcare policy using HPV triaging.All 15 outpatient clinics involved in the organized population-based screening program in Stockholm, Sweden screening

Overweight and obesity is associated with an increased risk of postmenopausal breast cancer. However, less is known about the impact of anthropometric factors on tumor pathology and biology. A Swedish population-based prospective cohort study of 9,685 postmenopausal women not using hormonal replacement therapy (HRT) were followed for an average of 10.3 years during which 305 incident breast cancer

Perturbation in the expression and signaling pathways of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) has been linked to pathogenesis of hematologic malignancies. We investigated the expression and clinical importance of VEGF and two of its receptors, VEGFR-1 and VEGFR-2, in childhood precursor B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (pre-B ALL) by using immunohistochemistry. These angiogenic proteins we

As a primary driver of climate change, energy systems are often affected by the type of “self-perpetuation and lock-in” that characterize so-called ‘wicked problems’. Although it has a relatively clean energy system, Canada still has provinces (e.g. Alberta, Saskatchewan) that possess carbon-intensive power grids, and provinces that have experienced minimal renewable energy development other tha

Huvudsyftet med denna pilotstudie var att undersöka anknytningsrepresentationer hos ensamstående kvinnor i Sverige som planerar eller överväger att skaffa barn, som väntar barn eller som har fått barn genom assisterad befruktning (donatorinsemination). Upplevelser av social acceptans relaterat till deras val att frivilligt bli ensamstående mödrar undersöktes också. Som metod användes Adult AttachmThe main aim of this pilot study was to explore inner representations of attachment in single women in Sweden that were planning to have children, that were expecting children or that have had children on their own through assisted reproduction (donor insemination). Experiences of social acceptance regarding their choice to parent alone were also examined. The methods used were The Adult Attachmen

The Swedish law of succession includes a right for the direct heir to retain half of the property in heritage. It is a very strong right, since it is mandatory and goes before a will that trespasses the disposable quota, which is the part of the heritage that the deceased are allowed to dispose through a will. This right is called statuary share of inheritance. The purpose of this essay is to inv

Low-frequency (LF) noise (1/f as well as random telegraph-signal (RTS) noise) measurements were performed on high-performance InGaAs nanowire (NW) metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs). 1/f noise measurements at room temperature (RT) show that the dominant noise mechanism is carrier number fluctuations. The minimum gate area normalized input gate voltage noise power spectral

Authors: Therese Johansson, Moa Sundelin Title: “It’s just sex, man” - A qualitative study concerning personal experiences from those who sell sex through the Internet. [translated title] Supervisor: Lars B Ohlsson Advertisement on the Internet is getting more frequent and the prostitution business is no exception. Selling sex is a much-debated subject in Sweden and it is a very polarizing debate

Popular summary: In my work I have studied the manganese ores at Bölet in Västergötland, southern Sweden. The ores at Bölet are of hydrothermal origin, which means that a hot fluid flushed through the bedrock and precipitated different salts and minerals. The purpose of the study was to determine the temperature of the precipitating fluids and to estimate their composition. To do so I examined mic

Emelie Fridell Källsortering i historisk miljö För företag och organisationer kan lokalers utformning och platsbrist gör dem mindre lämpade att ställa källsorteringsmöbler i. Detta kan innebära att en del historiska byggnader på grund av sin utformning har svårare att installera källsorteringsmöbler. Vid undersökning av AF-borgen i Lund gjordes en volymbestämning av avfallsmängderna i två lokaThe resources of our earth are limited and need to be managed sustainably. Managing waste is thus a global issue which makes recycling of waste an important part of sustainable resource management. Sweden has come a long way in source separation of waste compared to many other European countries, with recycling techniques and equipment for source separation, in use. However, most studies look at h

In recent years, with corporate scandals and the global financial crisis there is continuous attention in the area of corporate governance which is the new concept in corporate world these days. It is seen as a moral duty and includes supporting the conformity to law and showing ethical guide.
