OBJECTIVES: To investigate the significance of ACE gene insertion/deletion (I/D) polymorphism in the frequency of autoimmune manifestations in sarcoidosis. DESIGN: In patients with sarcoidosis the ACE gene I/D polymorphism was detected with PCR on genomic DNA. The patients with sarcoidosis were divided according to the presence (n = 30) or absence (n = 32) of autoimmune manifestations. The former

Previous research suggests that an inclination to eat in response to unlabeled anxiety and a strong dependence on environmental stimuli are more common in overweight individuals than in normal-weight controls. In particular, individuals who habitually use food and eating in order to alleviate painful feelings have to face these feelings when dieting, unless they can be neutralised by psychological

Background: Despite a strong social gradient in the prevalence of obesity, there is little scientific understanding of obesity in people settled in deprived neighbourhoods. Few studies are actually based on objectively measured data using random sampling of residents in deprived neighbourhoods. In addition, most studies use a crude measure, the body mass index, to estimate obesity. This is of conc

The human L3MBTL gene is located in 20q12, a region that is commonly deleted in myeloproliferative disorders (MPD), myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS), and acute myeloid leukemia (AML). L3MBTL is highly homologous to the D-lethal(3) malignant brain tumor [D-l(3)mbt] gene, which is a putative tumor-suppressor gene (TSG) identified in Drosophila and which is closely related to the Drosophila sex combs

OBJECTIVE: Relatives of patients undergoing cardiac surgery expect successful outcome but sometimes complications cause death. The aim was to interview relatives of patients who have died in connection with cardiac surgery and describe their experiences of information, reception and care. METHODS: Data were obtained from semi-structured interviews with 18 relatives of deceased patients and then an

This book is the major output of a research project exploring the relationship between social partnership and trade union renewal in a comparative context by reporting on recent experiences of co-operative approaches to industrial relations in eight countries: the UK, Sweden, the Netherlands, Germany, Italy, Ireland, Romania and the US. Case studies were compiled to draw out illustrative aspects f

A balance between different experiences of occupations in everyday life is important for well-being. The study aim was to describe hassles and uplifts in everyday occupations among women on long-term sick-leave due to stress-related disorders. The sample consisted of 77 women and experiences were collected by the THU-5 instrument. The statements were analysed using quantitative content analysis. D

The auditor is seen as the guardian of the market. However, several scandals have resulted in the public’s suspicions of auditor ethics. Therefore, the need of investigation of ethical awareness and ethical judgment among auditors should be taken into a deep consideration. The aim of this thesis is to investigate the differences in ethical awareness and ethical judgment of auditors across nations,

Our purpose was to examine the view and perspectives of the residential staff about the disabled individual’s sexuality. Our study was executed in three different group homes. Three questions evolved in our process and quest for insight: How does the residential staff construct the disabled sexuality in a group home? What is the staff´s perception of the disabled responsibility concerning their s

Liabilities for the criminally insane have, for a long time, had a favoured regulation. It has been, and still is, generally considered that people with various forms of mental illness or disorders should be treated differently in certain aspects of the law. The Swedish Criminal Code of 1864 spoke of mental illnesses that could fall into the concept of ''mental disease'' (sinnessju

A tight correlation between the baryonic and observed acceleration of galaxies has been reported over a wide mass range (108 < M bar/M⊙ < 1011 M⊙); this is known as the radial acceleration relation (RAR). This has been interpreted as evidence that dark matter is actually a manifestation of a modified, weak-field gravity theory. In this work, we studied the radially resolved RAR of 12 nearby dwarf

Background: Recently developed buprenorphine depot injections have the potential to reduce risk for diversion and misuse, and to increase adherence with fewer visits for supervised intake. However, it is unclear how patients perceive this new form of medication. The purpose of this study was to explore patients experiences of depot injections and their reasons for continuing, discontinuing, or dec

Power required to fly for a bird generally follows a U-shaped function of airspeed, with higher cost at both low and high speeds. Because power required increases with body mass faster than power available from flight muscles, larger birds may experience restricted flight speed ranges and climbing capabilities. Previous studies found limited flight performance in cormorants. Adapted for both fligh

Syftet med detta examensarbete är att vidga min förståelse för färg som skapande verktyg av arkitektur i rumslighet. Studien fokuserar på olika rumsliga fenomen som kan uppkomma beroende på hur färg samspelar med objekt, ytor och rumslighet. Parallellt med detta identifieras olika verktyg och praktiseras sedan i syfte att hitta sätt för färg att vara med i den tidiga designprocessen. För att samlaThe purpose of this thesis is to broaden my understanding of color as a creative tool of architecture in spatiality. The study will focus on different spatial phenomenons that can arise depending on how color interacts with objects, surfaces and spatiality. Parallel to this, different tools will be identified and then practiced in order to find ways for color to be included in the early design pro
