Popular Abstract in Swedish När patienten lämnar sjukhuset och återvänder hem efter en operation för kolorektal cancer (tjocktarm och ändtarm) innebär det en stor omställning. De är inte återställda efter den stora bukoperationen och upplever olika symtom som smärta, tarmbesvär och stor trötthet. Eftersom vårdtiderna blir allt kortare har deras återhämtning bara påbörjats på sjukhuset och de kommeThe overall aim of this thesis is to study the experiences of patients and next of kin with regard to information and information needs after being discharged after colorectal cancer surgery. The aim was also to study factors related to this. Different methods were combined in this explorative study in order to obtain diverse types of data. Patients who had undergone surgery for colorectal cancer

A combined sample preparation and sample presentation device, Integrated Selective Enrichment Target (ISET), consisting of an array with 96 perforated nanovials is described. Each perforated nanovial can be filled with soild-phase extraction media for purification and concentration of biomolecules prior to mass spectrometry. The ISET platform provides an efficient, economic and generic sample trea

Syftet med denna studie är att analysera hur personal inom socialtjänsten tolkar, definierar och upplever ett behandlingsprojekt, som involverade olika myndigheter, benämnt Motverka Våld och Gäng. Dessutom uppmärksammas hur den intervjuade och observerade personalen uppfattar och kategoriserar de inom projektet anställda samordnarna. De anställda inom socialtjänsten upplever att projektet kommit The aim of this study is to analyze how the Social Services personnel 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. Heads of units and Social Secretarys were interviewed, as well as observed and recorded at meetings. The personnel of the Soc

Accelerated cell aging, indexed in peripheral leukocytes by telomere shortness and in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) by telomerase activity, has been reported in several studies of major depressive disorder (MDD). However, the relevance of these peripheral measures for brain indices that are presumably more directly related to MDD pathophysiology is unknown. In this study, we explored

The generation of human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) represents an exciting advancement with promise for stem cell transplantation therapies as well as for neurological disease modeling. Based on the emerging roles for astrocytes in neurological disorders, we investigated whether hiPSC-derived astrocyte progenitors could be engrafted to the rodent spinal cord and how the characteristics

The rapid progress in scanning probe microscopy (SPM) techniques in the last decade has induced an increasing need for manufacturing advanced SPM tips. One important case is conductive and transparent tips. For such tips, only a few techniques have been proposed. which are either expensive or have poor reproducibility. We here propose a simple and cheap sol-gel technique to prepare fibers with a s

In his recent work, Eco abandons his conventionalist theory of pictures, which was heavily censored by, among others, the present author. In so doing, however, Eco now goes to the other extreme, claiming that television images are like mirrors, which are no signs. It is my contention that Eco fails to come up with a more acceptable theory of iconicity. Since Eco is one of the few semioticians conc

The chapter gives an overall picture of the conditions of labour market entry for young people (16-19 years) and young adults (20-24 years) and their social exclusion in Sweden from the early 1990s until now. The chapter consists of three sections. The first section provides background information on the entry of young people on the Swedish labour market. The overview summarizes research findings

The aim of this study was to investigate use and need for assistive devices (AD) in a cross-national European sample. Data from the ENABLE-AGE research project were utilised involving very old persons in Sweden, Germany, Latvia, Hungary and the United Kingdom. Of the total sample 65% reported that they had and used one or more AD, and 14% reported unfilled need for AD. The most commonly used AD we

Avsikten med detta projekt har varit att utveckla väl fungerande rutiner för PIXE-analys av biologiska prov med anknytning till exponering i arbetsmiljösituationer. Kravet på metoderna är att de tillvaratar PIXE-metodens fördelar (multielementanalys, små prov, snabb analys, låga detektionsgränser) och samtidigt förändrar eller förstör så lite som möjligt av den information som finns i de ursprungl

If we admit that, with the exception of language, human perception is predominantly visual, it is reasonable to think that all phenomena conveyed by the visual senses have something in common, but then visual semiotics/visual culture will comprehend much more than painting, sculpture, and architecture. The double coding hypotheses of cognitive psychology, as well as Lessing’s classical opposition

The term smart grid refers to an electrical grid system that incorporates a range of operating and energy initiatives including advanced metering, intelligent distribution boards and circuit breakers, load control switches and smart devices, and renewable energy resources. The incorporation of the internet of things (IoT) into the smart grid, called the internet of energy things-smart grid (IoET-S

Lagen (1982:80) om anställningsskydd (LAS) genomgick år 2022 en reform som bland annat innebar en förändring av regleringen för uppsägning på grund av personliga skäl i 7 § LAS. Syftet var att öka förutsebarheten för både arbetsgivare och arbetstagare vid uppsägningar. Med hjälp av rättsdogmatisk metod syftar uppsatsen till att analysera och kartlägga reformen i förhållande till uppsägning på gruThe Employment Protection Act (LAS) underwent a reform in 2022 which, among other things, involved a change in the regulation regarding dismissals on personal grounds in Section 7. The purpose of the reform was to increase predictability for both employers and employees in cases of dismissals. Using a legal dogmatic method, the thesis aims to analyse and map the reform in relation to dismissal on
