An overview of the language cultivation (ideas, implementation, organization etc.) in Sweden in the 19th and 20th centuries.

Recurrent disease after operation for colorectal carcinoma is a major problem for patients and for their doctors. Scientific evidence for guidelines is poor. It appears that intensive surveillance increases survival but we do not know which parameters in surveillance are important for this result.

Swedish textile art is often described as highly successful and as part of an appreciated tradition. But there are some interesting points to be made from looking at the subject as an Art Historian with a gender- and genre-perspective. First of all the textile material is closely linked to notions of femininity. The textile material is also persistently placed within the craft sphere. Secondly, th

Popular Abstract in Swedish I min avhandling studerar jag Folke Isakssons lyriska författarskap. Jag försöker visa hur han använder sig av platsskildringar, landskapsbilder och naturelement för att framställa ett själstillstånd. Genom att inte göra en sträng uppdelning mellan yttre och inre, mellan plats och själ, åstadkommer Isaksson en speciell poetisk effekt. De platser han skildrar i sin lyrikMy study focuses on the analysis of single poems chosen as paradigmatic of Fole Isaksson's style and poetic vision. This approach is grounded in the belief that there is a certain thematic unity to Isaksson's lyric output, a unity which stems from the poet's constant preoccupation with the relations between the speaker of a poem and external nature, i.e. the place or landscape in or before which t

Introduction: The COVID-19 pandemic forced leaders and employees in health care services to take difficult decisions to manage risks associated with employee health and the organizations’ functioning. This study aims to identify the changes in employee working routines, job demands, and job resources within Swedish maternal healthcare during the COVID-19 pandemic, and how these changes affected wo

The labour market consequences of early-onset or congenital disabilities have received little attention in the literature. In this paper, we study the consequences of cerebral palsy (CP), a lifelong early onset disability, and pathways through which it affects labour outcomes. We use data from multiple linked Swedish National Population Registers between 1990 and 2015 and apply both regression and

Spine Computed Tomography (SCT) is essential for identifying fractures, tumors and degenerative spine diseases, assisting medical practitioners in formulating an accurate diagnosis and treatment. One of the core element of SCT is reporting. The effectiveness of spine reporting is often limited by challenges such as an inadequate infrastructure and lack of experts. Automated SCT analysis has the po

This thesis deals with urban planning in connection with social and spatial integration. It´s a study of a new planning project in Malmö in southern Sweden. It´s an interesting case because this new, fashionable area will be located next to areas facing socio-economical challanges and stagnation. By using two theoretical models I analyse how the visions for planning a city are formulated and appl

Background: The Patient-Reported Indices for Multiple Sclerosis (PRIMUS) comprises a suite of three scales for assessing symptoms, activity limitations, and quality of life in multiple sclerosis (MS). It was developed in the UK and has been shown to have excellent psychometric properties. This study describes the adaptation of eight language versions for Canadian English, Canadian French, French,

Background Trauma is the leading cause of quality-related mortality in low- and middle-income countries, with an estimated two million preventable deaths each year. Although trauma quality improvement programmes have been utilised in high-income countries for more than three decades, there is no high-level evidence of their effect on patient outcomes. We aimed to assess whether implementing a cont

Different approaches are made to simulate snowmelt induced runoff using physically based equations. It is shown that overland flow as well as subsurface flow to rivulets or gullies may produce large runoff fluctuations when the rain or melt flux to the snowcovered ground is intermittent or periodic. A literature review and theoretical considera- tions show that groundwater often makes the largest

En god hälsa är grundläggande för barns och ungas utveckling, och en förutsättning för socialt och ekonomiskt deltagande under livet. Således innebär bördan av psykisk ohälsa stora utmaningar för både individ och samhälle. Det har rapporterats att den psykiska ohälsan ökar i Sverige dels bland den yngre befolkningen, dels i vissa grupper av den vuxna befolkningen. Det finns svårigheter med att mätThe purpose of this thesis is to improve the understanding of factors related to mental ill-health, and itsdistribution, in the Swedish population. The thesis consists of four studies. In study I, we find thatbetween the years 1994 and 2011, the probability of receiving a psychiatric inpatient diagnosisincreased by 12.6 percent, while the relative and absolute income-related inequalities in diagno
