Overweight and obesity rates have increased in recent decades, particularly among the younger population. The long-term consequences of obesity with respect to early venous thromboembolism (VTE) in women have not been established. The aim was to investigate the association between body mass index (BMI) in early pregnancy as a proxy for non-pregnant weight and long-term post-pregnancy risk of VTE i
Context. The star HD 139139 (a.k.a. ‘the Random Transiter’) is a star that exhibited enigmatic transit-like features with no apparent periodicity in K2 data. The shallow depth of the events (-200 ppm - equivalent to transiting objects with radii of -1.5 R⊕ in front of a Sun-like star) and their non-periodicity constitute a challenge for the photometric follow-up of this star. Aims. The goal of thi
Although vegetation phenology thresholds have been developed for a wide range of mapping applications, their use for assessing the distribution of natural bamboo and the related carbon stocks is still limited, especially in Southeast Asia. Here, we used Google Earth Engine (GEE) to collect time-series of Landsat 8 Operational Land Imager (OLI) and Sentinel-2 images and employed a phenology-based t

This thesis analyses how the biblical motif of the deluge is portrayed in modern fantasy. I apply an ecocritical perspective on the deluge as a way to portray natural disasters and climate change. The intertextuality with the Bible and what that lends to the literary works is in focus for the analysis as well as what role the water has in the fictive material. Through the paper I discuss water as
AimObesity is a stigmatised disease, and weight-related bullying is the most common form of victimisation. This study aimed to provide a nuanced understanding of adolescents’ experiences of such victimisation and related interventions.MethodsData were collected between April and October 2025 through semi-structured interviews and analysed using reflexive thematic analysis. Participants were Swedis
In this paper I take my point of departure in a discussion around the research method of doing so called go-alongs, its possibilities and limits when trying to capture every day family practices and social differentiation. Here I am mostly interested in different aspects of work and care in relation to the practice of feeding in families with young children, a routine practice in every day family
Background: The occupational therapy intervention, Active in My Home (AiMH), puts occupational engagement, participation in society and personal recovery in focus and includes increased staff support. Aims/Objectives: To investigate how the residents experienced the AiMH support, with a focus on their possibilities for engaging in occupations and participating in society after the intervention. Ma
The aim of this thesis was to investigate old people's care and quality of life during the last period of life, but also to investigate their own and next-of-kin's experience of this phase. The thesis is based on four studies using separate samples. The sample (n=1198) in study I was drawn from the care and services part of the sub-study ?Good Aging in Skåne? (GAS). The criteria for inclusion in s
Popular Abstract in Swedish Vid mitten av 1800-talet öppnades speciella institutioner i Sverige med syftet att ”rädda” prostituerade kvinnor från ett ”förtappat liv” utanför samhällets ramar. Men vilka var de kvinnor som ville rädda, bli räddare? Var deras engagemang ett uttryck för omsorg eller kan det sociala arbetet ses som en klassrelaterad maktutövning, en vilja att kontrollera och disciplineThe object of this thesis is a Swedish religious reform movement that, from mid nineteenth century to early twentieth century, undertook social work intended to ‘rescue’ female prostitutes. The purpose of the study is to illuminate the encounter between two groups of women, the rescuers and the rescued. This encounter is principally seen from the rescuer’s perspective, since it is the rescue movem
The differentiation between expression and content is fundamental in the concept of signs. Even if the notions of signs are often revised, due partly to the attraction of a semiotic approach from markedly disparate objects of study, a common apprehension of the distinctive character of meanings by sign is its dual nature. (Saussure 1968, Piaget 1951, 1966; Vygotsky 1999; Sigel 1978; DeLoache 2000)
Background: The highest numbers of HIV-infected women are in sub- Saharan Africa, where the natural progression of HIV disease in the absence of treatment results in death before the onset of invasive cervical cancer. With improved access to treatment, several studies outside West Africa demonstrated an increased risk of pre-invasive cervical lesions among HIV-infected women and the positive impac

Introduction: Regional and global brain volumes are of great interest in many different research projects, not least in Alzheimer’s research. The purpose of this project is to optimize the MPRAGE sequence for automatic and repeatable segmentation of human brain tissue. The volume is calculated for the whole brain, white matter (WM), grey matter (GM) and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). Materials and met
Background: Prior research has established evidence for self-determination enhancement as a promising intervention for youth transitioning from out-of-home care. Understanding how participants in these prior trials compare to adolescents in target contexts may inform practice by highlighting the extent to which such models are expected to benefit young people. Objective: To assess the extent to wh
