The prevalence of obesity among children and adolescents is on the rise. The majority of overweight or obese children are treated by primary health care providers including paediatricians, family practitioners, dieticians, nurses, and school health services - and not by specialists. The majority of obese children have no underlying medical disorder causing their obesity yet a significant proportio

BACKGROUND: Healthy life expectancy (HALE) and disability-adjusted life-years (DALYs) provide summary measures of health across geographies and time that can inform assessments of epidemiological patterns and health system performance, help to prioritise investments in research and development, and monitor progress toward the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). We aimed to provide updated HALE a

Fission track analysis (FTA) was developed to be applied to ultra-low levels of 239Pu in bioassay samples. An analytical protocol was established for the FTA processing. The detection limit was determined to 1.5 µBq and the calibration constant was 24 fission fragments per µBq 239Pu. Naturally occuring nuclides of thorium and uranium, present in biological and environmental samples, did not interf

Om en skiljenämnd har överskridit sitt uppdrag kan en part yrka att skiljedo-men ska upphävas genom att klandra skiljedomen och åberopa klandergrunden uppdragsöverskridande enligt 34 § 1 st. 3 p. LSF. För att vinna bifall måste klanderparten göra det sannolikt att uppdragsöverskridandet har inverkat på utgången, ett så kallat effektrekvisit. I NJA 2019 s. 382 ‘CicloMulsion’ re-dogjorde Högsta domsIf an arbitral tribunal has exceeded its mandate a party may request for an ar-bitral award to be set aside on the grounds of ‘excess of mandate’ according to Section 34 para. 1 no. 3 of the Swedish Arbitration Act. To reach a favourable judgment the challenging party has to make probable that the excess of man-date influenced the outcome, a so called requisite of influence. In NJA 2019 s. 382 ‘Ci

Air pollution has increasingly been the focus of management and policy efforts since the early 1950s. Networks of monitoring stations for data to inform, create, focus, assess and improve air pollution management and policy. However, monitoring systems can become disconnected from air quality management and policy without analysis and interpretation to bridge the divide. This thesis develops a met

Several transcripts have been claimed to be clinically valuable for detecting minimal disease in neuroblastoma, but they have not been prospectively compared in a standardized manner. Tyrosine hydroxylase (TH), dopa decarboxylase (DDC) and GD2 synthase (GD2S) mRNAs were analyzed in 554 blood (PB) and bone marrow (BM) samples from 58 children with neuroblastoma. Samples from 44 children with other

This is a qualitative study with the subject; intimate partner violence. The study is based on an assessment manual from Socialstyrelsen named Manual för FREDA Standardiserade bedömningsmetoder för socialtjänstens arbete mot våld i nära relationer. The purpose of the FREDA-manual is to investigate and identify violence in intimate relationships and the purpose of this study focus on investigating

Syfte Uppsatsens syfte var att undersöka om och i så fall hur sångintervention i klassrummet ger effekter på den språkliga förmågan, närmare bestämt på förståelse och produktion av berättelser, hos elever i årskurs 2. Metod Deltagare i studien var 66 elever i årskurs 2 från två olika skolor, fördelade på två grupper A och B. Sångintervention gavs fyra gånger i veckan i 5 veckor och data samlades i

Non-human animals are often excluded from contemporary political theories, much to their detriment in terms of welfare and protection. The ‘political turn’ is a subset of animal ethicists concerned with moving beyond motivating moral status and instead discussing the politics of a shared human-animal society. This thesis evaluates Philip Pettit’s neo-republicanism as a theoretical framework for a

The choice of society – who is to vote? Opportunities to participation in the general elections for people with intellectual disabilities related to the Swedish national objective of an accessible society for all citizens The aim of this study is twofold; first to examine how Swedish government authorities and other relevant actors in the society regard the accessibility of general elections for

Objective. To establish a high-throughput system for testing the ability of drugs or monoclonal antibodies to reduce the in vitro formation of cystatin C dimers to identify substances potentially useful for treatment of patients with hereditary cystatin C amyloid angiopathy (HCCAA). Methods. Various combinations of incubation temperature, time period, guanidinium chloride concentration and concent

Background Being born small for gestational age (SGA) or large for gestational age (LGA) has short and long term metabolic consequences. There is a growing interest in the extent to which body composition, both in the short and the long term, differs in infants born at the extremes of these birth weights. Methods Body composition in 25 SGA and 25 LGA infants were assessed during the first days of

A search for neutral Higgs bosons of the minimal supersymmetric standard model (MSSM) and for a heavneutral Z′ boson is performed using a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.2 fb- 1 from proton–proton collisions at s=13 TeV recorded by the ATLAS detector at the LHC. The heavy resonance is assumed to decay to a τ+τ- pair with at least one τ lepton decaying to final states wit

Objectives: Coagulation test results may be affected by hemolysis, icterus and/or lipemia (HIL). Detailed guidelines for HIL-management are missing, both for manual and automatic HIL-checks. The aim of this survey was to provide an overview of the practical procedures for the detection and handling of HIL-samples used by laboratories in Europe in the context of coagulation testing. Methods: A Surv

Sweden has received a high number of immigrants during the last decade. This has led to an increased ethnic and socioeconomic segregation in Swedish cities, which in turn has led to different integration initiatives to become more frequent. This thesis aims to investigate how a “buddy programme”, a social integration project that matches a newcomer and an established Swede together, can enrich the
