The aim was to describe food intake over time in children and adolescents, with respect to age and gender. The present study was a repeated cross-sectional study using self-reported data from a health questionnaire. Data were collected from the School Health Services in south-east Sweden from 44 297 students, 10, 13-14 and 16 years of age, 48 % girls and 52 % boys from 2009/2010 to 2015/2016. Repo

We compare different procedures for combining fixed-order tree-level matrix element generators with parton showers. We use the case of W-production at the Tevatron and the LHC to compare different implementations of the so-called CKKW scheme and one based on the so-called MLM scheme using different matrix element generators and different parton cascades. We find that although similar results are o

A nonionic lamellar phase was prepared using C10E3 in buffer solution at pH = 7.6. A suitable T4DNA concentration around 5 wt % was immobilized in a lamellar phase with 40 wt % C10E3. The mixed system was investigated at two temperatures, 25 and 5 degrees C by using cryo-fracture TEM direct imaging, fluorescence microscopy and small-angle X-ray scattering. The surprising results where obtained sho

Popular Abstract in Swedish En välfungerande andning med utbyte av syrgas och koldioxid mellan kroppen och omgivningen är en förutsättning för liv. För att detta gasutbyte ska fungera krävs bl. a. att ventilationen, dvs. in- och utflödet av luft i lungorna, står i balans med blodflödet genom lungorna. I lungorna tar blodet emot syrgas som behövs för att cellerna i kroppen ska fungera och samtidigtRespiration relies, among other things, on the balance between regional ventilation and perfusion in the lungs. There are many cardiopulmonary diseases, such as pulmonary embolism (PE), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and left heart failure (LHF), which can affect respiration negatively. The diagnosis of PE, COPD and LHF follows separate diagnostic pathways. However, the symptoms that

Popular Abstract in Swedish Vad arbetar en analytisk kemist med? Exempel på kemiska analyser är att en idrottsman ska dopingtestas eller att eventuella föroreningar i vattnet från en bäck ska bestämmas. Den analytiska kemistens problemställning är vanligtvis att identifiera (kvalitativ analys) och mäta upp (kvantitativ analys) innehållet i ett prov. Ofta är de intressanta ämneshalterna mycket lågaCapillary electrophoresis is characterised by high separation efficiency, applicability to a wide range of compounds, small sample and solvent consumption and simple instrumentation. To improve sensitivity using on-line absorbance detectors, which are hampered by the short optical path length, sample volumes in the microlitre range were concentrated to nanolitre volumes either off-line or on-line.

It is expected that, in the future, gas turbines will be operated on gaseous fuels currently unutilized. The ability to predict the range of feasible fuels, and the extent to which existing turbines must be modified to accommodate these fuels, rests on the nature of these fuels in the combustion environment. Understanding the combustion behavior is aided by investigation of syngases of similar com

The aim of this thesis is to study the flammability and fire spread for textile membranes for weather protection. This thesis includes literature studies to determine current standards and recommendations available. Main focus however have been on the European classification system EN 13501-1 and construction site safety. Two types of experimental tests have been done, cone calorimeter test and te

Bilden av den traditionella kärnfamiljen som enbart ett heterosexuellt gift par med barn ifrågasätts allt mer och andra familjekonstellationer blir allt vanligare. I detta kan vi se att homosexuella personers relationer och familjer har lyfts fram mer och mer och tidigare fördomar om dessa tolereras i mindre grad. Denna förändring i attityd sker dock i olika takt runtom i Europa, vilket gör EuropaThe traditional family as a heterosexual married couple with children is a norm that is increasingly being questioned and other family constellations are getting more common. In this context the relations and families of homosexual persons are being highlighted and prejudices against them are less tolerated. This change of attitude is occurring at different rates around Europe, which renders the t

Syftet med denna studie är att utifrån mitt empiriska material kartlägga och beskriva hur föräldrar till barn intagna på särskilda ungdomshemmen tolkar, definierar och upplever ett behandlingsprojekt, som involverade olika myndigheter, benämnt Motverka Våld och Gäng. Dessutom uppmärksammas hur de anställda samordnarna uppfattades och kategoriserades av föräldrarna. ”Föräldrar” blir i undersökninThe aim of this study is to analyze how mothers with children placed in Swedish juvenile homes interpret, define and perceive, on the one hand, the project “Motverka Våld och Gäng” meaning “Counteract Violence and Gangs”, and on the other hand the role of the Coordinators employed in this project. The mothers who were interviewed spoke about some Coordinators that they appreciated. They then pain

During the last 130 years, a number of exhibitions have interpreted and shown the Danish West Indies. The exhibitions are generally characterized by two tendencies: A rather romantic view on the colonial past with a strong focus on trade and the maritime. 2017 marked the centennial for the transfer of the Danish West Indies from Denmark to the United States. ;ore importantly, perhaps, it also mark

Increasingly warmer springs have caused phenological shifts in both plants and animals. In birds, it is well established that mean laying date has advanced to match the earlier food peak. We know less about changes in the distribution of egg-laying dates within a population and the environmental variables that determine this variation. This could be an important component of how populations respon

The purpose of this paper is to provide an ex-post evaluation of the effectiveness of the South Korean Green New Deal (GND) as an instrument to deliver both an economic recovery and improved environmental performance. We use the energy sector as the main scope for our analysis when measured against climate-related indicators (e.g. CO2 emissions, energy intensity, share of renewable energy in suppl

Purpose - The dimple is adopted into a pin fin wedge duct which is widely used in modern gas turbine vane cooling structure trailing edge region. The purpose of this paper is to study the effects of dimple depth and duct converging angle on the endwall heat transfer and friction factor in this pin fin wedge duct. Design/methodology/approach - The study is carried out by using the numerical simulat

Preeclampsia (PE) is a pregnancy disorder characterized by systemic endothelial damage that leads to long-term cardiovascular complications. The endothelial glycocalyx (EG) covers the luminal surface of endothelium playing a critical role in vascular homeostasis. In this study we aimed to evaluate EG thickness and blood pressure (BP) trends in women with a history of PE vs. normotensive pregnancy.

Biochar produced in cookstoves has the potential to contribute to negative carbon emissions through sequestration of biomass carbon while also providing other benefits for sustainable development, including provision of clean renewable energy and increased yields in tropical agriculture. The aim of the reported research was to estimate effects on food production, household energy access and life c

Qualitative and quantitative visualizations of transonic turbomachinery flows provide essential information on compressibility and Mach number effects on boundary layer development, shock-boundary layer interactions (SBLI) and trailing edge flows. Background Oriented Schlieren (BOS) is a relatively new optical technique that allows capturing unsteady density gradient fields through turbomachinery

The use of material extrusion (MEX) has increased rapidly due to the affordability of 3D printers. This has led to a growing demand for improved print quality, high fidelity, strength, or fast print times. In this study, a non-planar approach for better surface quality is investigated. The hardware of a 3-axis MEX printer was developed together with testing new software for non-planar slicing. The
