In the literature enlarged/increased cross-sectional area (CSA) of type I muscle fibres has been reported as a morphological mark of work-related localised myalgia in the descending part of the trapezius muscle of women. These studies did not use enough subjects or lacked an adequate control group. The recording of surface electromyograms (EMG) is central to the research field of work-related myal

Introduction:Fava beans are becoming an increasingly popular and viable crop, offering a nutritious option for innovative plant-based food products. Despite their potential, fava beans remain underutilized in the food industry, with their primary use still being as animal feed [1]. However, fava beans are an interesting base material for producing plant-based milk alternatives. While soy milk curr

I en tid där den sino-europeiska handeln ökar snabbt, stiger även antalet juridiska tvister. Det finns få saker som är så skrämmande som att funktionera i en obekant miljö. Med anledning av detta undersöker och jämför denna uppsats varumärkeslagstiftningen och –skydden i EU och Kina, med särskild hänsyn till de problem som västerländska kommersiella aktörer förväntas bemöta i samband med inträde pIn an era where Sino-European trade is increasing rapidly, the number of legal disputes is on the rise. There are few things as frightening as operating in an unfamiliar environment. For this reason, this thesis examines and compares the systems of trademark law and protection in the EU and China, with special regard to problems commonly encountered by western commercial actors in their entrance o

Introduction. Fava beans are an increasingly popular and viable crop, and an excellent nutritious choice for novel plant-based food products. Fava beans are industrially underexploited as a food ingredient and are today mainly used as animal feed [1]. However, fava beans are an interesting base material for producing plant-based milk. While soy milk dominates the legume-based beverage segment, the

Climate change and anthropogenic activities are producing a range of new selection pressures, both abiotic and biotic, on marine organisms. While there are numerous studies that have investigated the response of individual marine organisms to climate change, few studies have focused on differences in organismal responses across trophic levels. Such trophic differences in response to climate change

This deliverable reports on Risk Assessment for Wetland Sediment Applications on Agricultural Land. The main content is a thorough and critical evaluation (literature review) of the wetland coupled agriculture and the related concerns such as nutrients, sediments and contamination risks. This will also be supported by the two case studies. Constructed wetlands act as traps for substances carried w

This book is a contribution to the discussion about religion in contemporary Western society, characterized by the privatization of religion. The concept religion is not easily operational and does not carry meaning or implications that remain valid or consistent over time. It must be re-substantiated in order to remain descriptive and operational. This book’s ambition is to explore a means of re-

Popular Abstract in Swedish Tjugo patienter som deltog i psykiatrisk öppenvård baserad på arbetsterapi undersöktes beträffande behandlingsresultat, uppfattningen om vårdklimatet och upplevelsen av behandlingsrelationen med arbetsterapeuten. Psykiatriska symtom, global mental hälsa, livskvalitet och fungerandet i dagligt liv studerades vid inskrivning i behandlingen, vid utskrivning, samt vid en etThe outcomes of 20 patients participating in occupational group therapy at a psychiatric outpatient unit were explored and related to perceptions of the ward atmosphere and the treatment process. The outcome variables - psychiatric symptoms, global mental health, quality of life, and occupational functioning - were measured at admission, at discharge, and 1 year after discharge. The ward atmospher

Popular Abstract in Swedish Kostnaden för grund- och gymnasieskolan i Sverige motsvarar idag ca 4,5% av BNP. Med tanke på investeringens storlek är det viktigt att dessa resurser används effektivt. I avhandlingen studeras effektivitet inom den kommunala skolan på tre nivåer: Kommunal nivå, skolnivå och individuell nivå. Effektiviteten skattas i linjärprogrammeringsmodeller, genom så kallad Data EnSweden spends altogether about 4.5% of GDP on primary, secondary and upper secondary school. Considering the magnitude of this investment it is important that these resources are used efficiently. In this thesis efficiency in public education is analysed on three different levels: The municipal level, the school level, and the individual level. Efficiency is estimated using a linear programming te

The overall aim of the thesis was to investigate and explore job satisfaction, strain and stress of conscience (SC) among nurse assistants (NAs) working in residential care for older people. The thesis had a descriptive, cross-sectional and correlational design and consisted of one paper where qualitative methodology was used and three where quantitative methodology was used.

We are currently witnessing a growing interest of network operators to migrate their ex- isting 2G/3G networks to 4G technologies such as long-term evolution (LTE) to enhance the user experience and service opportunities in terms of providing multi-megabit band- width, more efficient use of radio networks, latency reduction, and improved mobility. Along with this, there is a strong deployment of p

The hallmark of severe haemophilia, defined as a circulating level of factor (F) VIII (haemophilia A cases) or FIX (haemophilia B cases) of < 1%, is recurrent bleeding into muscles and joints (haemarthroses) from an early age of life. The inevitable result of such bleeding is progressive joint damage, leading to disabling arthritis that is typically evident within the first 2 decades of life in pe

Industrial robots typically require very structured and predictable working environments, and explicit programming, in order to perform well. Therefore, expensive and time-consuming engineering work is a major obstruction when mediating tasks to robots. This thesis presents methods that decrease the amount of engineering work required for robot programming, and increase the ability of robots to ha

Introduction: A large number of policy instruments have been developed to induce energy efficiency and mitigate climate change. Traditional policy evaluations have assessed the performance of individual policy instruments, applying criteria such as target effectiveness, cost-effectiveness, legitimacy and distributional effects. More recently there has been a shift of interest in how policy instrum

This master thesis addresses the electrically powered assisted bicycle (EPAC) as a future low-carbon commuting option and its market. The purpose of the report is to evaluate whether the EPAC can be used to improve the climate performance of the transport sector and to assess the outlook for the Swedish EPAC market. The EPAC is compared to the bicycle, car, bus and train and assessed thereafter. T

Food safety and quality has been an emerging trend on the food market in recent years. In the grain and cereals market focus is shifting from looking at grain as a bulk commodity to look at it as individual kernels. In the pursuit of quality improvement and assurance various methods are emerging attempting to sort grain, all grain, according to quality on a single kernel basis. One such technology

Antalet barn och unga som upplever könsdysfori har ökat drastiskt under det senaste årtiondet. Unga könsdysforiker har behandlats och behandlas idag med hormoner som kan bromsa pubertetsutvecklingen eller göra att kroppen utvecklas närmare till det könet som den unga identifierar sig som. Könsbe-kräftande hormonbehandlingar till barn har på senare tid väckt ett antal frågor, eftersom behandlingarn

Older women have long been invisible and marginalized in society and culture at large because of the ‘gendered’ ageist stereotypes towards them. Especially, ageist stereotypes towards older women have been reinforced by their invisibility and stereotypical portrayals in traditional media. However, with the rise of social media, elderly women have become visible in society bypassing the gatekeepers
