Taking a point of departure in a queer/reparatory methodological reading as well as in feminist postcolonial traditions; the thesis analyzes how and why certain ideas about the city of Malmö as a home are constructed and thus which id

Popular Abstract in Swedish Läkemedelsrelaterade problem hos äldre - Interventioner för att förbättra läkemedelsbehandlingen Läkare inom primärvården står för en stor del av den totala läkemedelsförskrivningen i Sverige och är en viktig målgrupp för läkemedelsindustrins information. Det har i flera uppmärksammade studier från Socialstyrelsen uppmärksammats att läkemedelsbehandlingen för patientIntroduction: Elderly people, in particular those residing in nursing homes, often use many drugs. In general elderly patients are at greater risk of experiencing drug-related problems (DRP), as they have multiple diseases, are using many drugs and have changed physiological status. Objectives: To describe the frequency of potential drug-related problems in the elderly and to evaluate different k

Penguins face a major thermal transition when returning to land in a hypothermic state after a foraging trip. Uninsulated appendages (flippers and feet) could provide flexible heat exchange during subsequent rewarming. Here, we tested the hypothesis that peripheral vasodilation could be delayed during this recovery stage. To this end, we designed an experiment to examine patterns of surface rewarmPenguins face a major thermal transition when returning to land in a hypothermic state after a foraging trip.

Popular Science AbstractHow well bees can see the world?aBees such as bumblebees and honeybees are some of the most important pollinators. They pollinate by using different sensory cues from the flowers, primarily vision and olfaction. In my PhD I was interested in understanding how well bees can see while they are inspecting flowers as well as while they are performing high-speed flight maneuversBees use multiple sensory modalities to perform day-to-day tasks. Light allows them to perceive objects and the general features of their surroundings, enabling them to find food and to navigate safely across the landscape. Although both these tasks involve vision, the requirements of the visual system differ depending upon what the bee wants to achieve; locate a flower to feed from or adjust its

mmediate breast reconstruction (IBR) combined with post-mastectomy radiotherapy (PMRT) is associated with an increased risk for complications. Here, we analyse whether IBR combined with PMRT is ethically acceptable. We employ normative analysis following reflective equilibrium and the principles of Beauchamp and Childress: non-maleficence, beneficence, autonomy, and justice.

Secondary and tertiary prevention strategies are essential in targeting those with disabilities to improve their health and well-being. In Sweden, over 95% of all children with cerebral palsy (CP) participate in a follow-up program in which one of the goals is to prevent hip dislocations. To demonstrate the importance of maintaining timely, systematic, preventive, work overtime, we reviewed the in

BACKGROUND: The Scandinavian Neurotrauma Committees (SNC) guideline is a validated and well established decision tool for pediatric minor to moderate head trauma in Sweden, categorizing patients into low, moderate and high risk for intracranial injury. It recommends observation over imaging with computer tomography in low and moderate risk stratified patients. However the effect on guideline imple

We are daily moving in different landscapes for various reasons; sometimes we are looking for specific activities and sometimes just to move from one place to another. Common for this is the affect the landscape can have on us and how it gives us different experiences. In this essay I seek answers to what is important for people when they visit the nature for recreational purposes. What factors do

Since 1st of June 2016, an amortisation requirement in Sweden applies, which means that new mortgages will be amortised to 50 percent of the value of the housing price. This was introduced when the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority (Finansinspektionen) considered that there was a need to dampen the aggregated debt in Sweden and the purpose of the requirement was to increase household resista

BACKGROUND: Although intensive blood pressure (BP) control has not been shown to slow the progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD), intensive BP control has been shown to reduce the risk for adverse cardiovascular outcomes in the CKD population. The aim of this post-hoc study was to study the interplay between a self-monitoring BP system and glomerular function.METHODS: In all, 949 participants
