Background: A substantial proportion of women with breast cancer (BC) experience a wide range of long-term persistent and troublesome side effects related to the disease and its treatment. The ReScreen randomized controlled trial is conducted aiming to evaluate the effect of early screening of distress followed by individualized rehabilitation after primary BC treatment.Purpose: To examine recruit

Bacterial surface-associated plasmin formation is believed to contribute to invasion, although the underlying molecular mechanisms are poorly understood. To define the components necessary for plasmin generation on group A streptococci we used strain AP53 which exposes an M-like protein ("PAM") that contains a plasminogen-binding sequence with two 13-amino acid residues long tandem repeats (a1 and

This article is a reaction to previous appeals to widen the conceptual remit of Critical Discourse Studies (CDS). It proposes research bricolage as means for critical engagement with conceptual constructs originating from adjacent social science disciplines. Borrowing such concepts as far-right metapolitics from political science, superordinate intersectionality from gender studies, and Web 2.0 so

We aimed to study psychological health, as approximated by the use of psychotropic drugs, in a population diagnosed and surgically treated for carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) or ulnar nerve entrapment (UNE), or both, also considering the demographic and socioeconomic factors of the individuals. Linking data from five large national registers, use of psychotropics (at least one dispensation during the

The educational opportunities of refugee learners are shaped by forces of globalization, restrictive mobility regimes and geopolitical agendas, that place them in a position of structural disadvantage. The majority of the world's refugee learners have fled due to armed conflict and reside in neighboring countries in the global South. In many cases forced displacement is protracted, with limited gl

Föreliggande rapport handlar om demokrati, delaktighet och inflytande i två av Lomma kommuns grundskolor. Elevers rättigheter till inflytande finns föreskrivet i barnkonventionen, skollagen, kommunala styrdokument, samt i enskilda skolors lokala vardag. Vad innebär elevinflytande? Hur gestaltas elevinflytandet, formellt och informellt? Hur upplever elever möjligheterna till delaktighet i undervisn

An evaluation of the project “Nätverk Handel i Malmö” (continued during 2004 – 2005), which aimed to improved working conditions for the commercial employees in Malmö.

En fastighetspaketering innebär att ett moderbolag överlåter en fastighet till ett för ändamålet nybildat dotterbolag genom en underprisöverlåtelse till skattemässigt värde, varefter andelarna i dotterbolaget avyttras koncernexternt. Förfarandet med fastighetspaketeringar är ett skatteplaneringsverktyg som resulterar i minimerad skattebelastning för såväl överlåtaren som förvärvaren. I denna uppsaThe concept of packing assets in terms of real estate signifies that a parent company transfers a real estate to a newly formed subsidiary through an undervalue-transfer set to tax value, i.e. for a price under fair market value, whereafter the shares in the subsidiary are disposed of. The given procedure is a tax planning tool which causes minimized tax burden for the transferor, as well as for t

Studien syftar till att undersöka hur rytmikpedagoger beskriver och förhåller sig till utforskande i sin undervisning och hur utforskande tas i uttryck i deras rytmikundervisning. Studien syftar också till att undersöka hur rytmikpedagogerna relaterar lärande till utforskande och vilka faktorer som kan påverkar detta. För studien genomfördes fem semistrukturerade intervjuer med rytmikpedagoger, viThis study aims to examine how teachers of eurythmics describe and relate to the concept of exploration in their teaching, as well as examine how this exploration takes place in their teaching. The study also examines how teachers relate learning to exploration and what factors may have an impact on this. For the study, five semi-structured interviews were done with eurythmic teachers, who teach a

Background: Mild to moderate cognitive impairment is common amongst long-term survivors of cardiac arrest. In the Target Temperature Management trial (TTM-trial) comatose survivors were randomized to 33 degrees C or 36 degrees C temperature control for 24 hours after cardiac arrest and the effects on survival and neurological outcome assessed. This protocol describes a sub-study of the TTM-trial i

Popular Abstract in Swedish Sambanden mellan kostens sammansättning och risk för hjärt-kärlsjukdom är i många fall oklara. En kost rik på fleromättade fettsyror har ansetts kunna ge skydd mot hjärt-kärlsjukdom, men resultaten från olika studier är motstridiga. En anledning till detta kan vara för att man inte har tagit hänsyn till de genetiska skillnader som finns mellan individer. Omega-3 och oIn previous studies, a high quality diet has been associated with a reduced risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) compared to a low diet quality, and specific “healthy” diet components, such as polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), have been hypothesized to reduce the risk of CVD. However, results from epidemiological studies have been conflicting. This may be due to individuals having varied geneti

Nowadays it is becoming more and more common for children, young and older, to have some type of mental health problems, but the question is how does this affect the person's life? The purpose of this paper is to get a more specific understanding of mental health problems regarding children. The paper aims to show how mental health affects children, after a diagnosis and/or a turning point in

In the introduction, different contributions are brought together in an analysis of pre-industrial living standards in East and West, viewed in the light of the general debate on these issues from the classical economists to present times. The general picture emerging is not one of great divergence, but instead one of considerable similarities. Regional differences within Europe or Asia were often

The paper explores the role and meaning of maṣlaḥa (social utility) and its possible appropriation in the field of Islamic legal and economic thought, as laid down by various medieval and contemporary Muslim scholars. Questions that are pertinent to the research are the following: how has maṣlaḥa been incorporated in legal reasoning and what kind of meaning does it convey; what type of economic (a

This thesis intends to point out the limits of exclusively formalist literary criticism. To locate these limits with precision the thesis contrasts the formalist criticism of Monroe C. Beardsley with the critical hermeneutics of Paul Ricoeur. The idea for this thesis is based in an experience that strictly rule-governed formalist criticism does not seem to correspond to the fullness of its object,
