Popular Abstract in Swedish Urininkontinens är en utbredd folksjukdom och ett stort folkhälsoproblem. Omkring 500 000 människor i Sverige, mest kvinnor (2/3) är drabbade. Förekomsten av inkontinens ökar med stigande ålder. Ofrivilligt urinläckage orsakar många gånger både medicinska och sociala handikapp med minskad livskvalitet som följd. Undersökningar har visat att endast 25% av de inkontinentaDysfunction of the pelvic floor can lead to incontinence and different forms of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS). Urinary incontinence is a common problem and about 500 000 persons in Sweden, mostly (2/3) women, suffering from incontinence. The general aim of this thesis was to characterize the function and dysfunction of the pelvic floor muscles in healthy and incontinent women. Vaginal EMG, p

Background: At birth, infants' lungs are fluid-filled. For newborns to have a successful transition, this fluid must be replaced by air to enable effective breathing. Some infants are judged to have inadequate breathing at birth and are resuscitated with positive pressure ventilation (PPV). Giving prolonged (sustained) inflations at the start of PPV may help clear lung fluid and establish gas volu

STUDY QUESTION Does an intensive weight reduction programme prior to IVF increase live birth rates for infertile obese women? SUMMARY ANSWER An intensive weight reduction programme resulted in a large weight loss but did not substantially affect live birth rates in obese women scheduled for IVF. WHAT IS ALREADY KNOWN Among obese women, fertility and obstetric outcomes are influenced negatively wit

BACKGROUND: During the last 5 years, there has been an increase in the use of unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) to treat knee osteoarthritis in Australia, and these account for almost 6% of annual knee replacement procedures. However, there is debate as to whether a fixed bearing or a mobile bearing design is best for decreasing revision for loosening and disease progression as well as impr

Mindre än två månader – så kort kan tiden enligt uppskattningar vara från upptäckten av ett virus med pandemisk potential till dess att virusets spridning över världen når exponentiell takt. Nationella regeringar och myndigheter har därför kort tid på sig för att i samråd med internationella organ planera och införa åtgärder för att hindra eller begränsa smittspridningen inom respektive land.I det

Alternative fuels for combustion engines are becoming increasingly popular as society is pushing to phase out fossil energy to reduce CO2 emissions. The compression ignition (CI) engine has a high overall efficiency which makes it a valuable option for the transport fleet, despite the well known NOx and soot pollutants it emits. These two pollutants are emitted due to a combination of high local c

Background: Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in children is associated with hyperactivity and impulsivity, attention problems, and difficulties with social interactions. Pharmacological treatment may alleviate the symptoms of ADHD but this rarely solves difficulties with social interactions. Children with ADHD may benefit from interventions designed to improve their social skills.We

Fracture behavior of an ultra thin Aluminium foil was studied. For very short crack lengths, fracture has been followed in the scanner electronic microscope (SEM) with a tensile stage. A single edge notched tension specimen was used. Crack length and applied load during the crack growth were measured. These results have been used to calculate fracture strength using linear elastic fracture mechani

The aim of this article is to articulate how legal processes, that produce assumptions about social realities which subsequently shape relations of inequality and oppression, may be explored using a critical legal cartographic approach. Critical cartography points to the duality of representation and construction that is innate to cartography, i.e. when portraying reality, maps are also making it.The aim of this article is to articulate how legal processes, that produce assumptions about social realities which subsequently shape relations of inequality and oppression, may be explored using a critical legal cartographic approach.

Decomposition of soil organic matter (SOM) contributes significantly to the global carbon (C) cycle and climate feedbacks. SOM decomposition depends on soil microbial activities, and these activities are driven by the availability of C and other nutrients. Plant root exudates are known to alter decomposition of SOM, a phenomenon referred to as rhizosphere priming effects (RPE).

I kapitlet diskuteras vilka litteraturhistoriska föreställningar om arbetarlitteratur som styr dagens svenska arbetarlitteratur. Dagens varianter skildrar i stor utsträckning samhällets trasproletariat och tycks därmed ha mer gemensamt med exempelvis Maksim Gorkijs noveller från 1890-talet än med trettiotalets klassisk-kanoniska svenska arbetarskildringar. Hur kan det komma sig? Vad säger denna li

Bacterial extracellular vesicles (EVs) contain numerous active substances that mediate bacterial interactions with their host and with other microbes. Best defined are the EVs from Gram-negative bacteria that have been shown to deliver virulence factors, modulate the immune responses, mediate antibiotic resistance, and also inhibit competitive microbes. Due to the complex cell wall structures of G

With the introduction of information theory in the middle of the 20th century, the concept of noise came to be contrasted with signal. The exhibition Noise to Signal mainly consists of two projects that highlight the relative nature of these terms.The three textile works, all with the title Untitled (Noise), appear abstract but also represent a grainy filter that is usually applied to digital imag

När ett barn föds är det mycket i samhället som det ännu inte har träffat på. Ja, faktiskt det mesta. Vem barnet blir och vilka vägar det väljer genom livet kommer att påverkas av många faktorer, däribland utformningen av alla de produkter och miljöer det över tid möter och interagerar med. I detta kapitel ägnar vi oss åt fysiska aspekter av interaktionen mellan individ och samhälle, med fokus på
