Bakgrund: God balans kräver ett samarbete mellan flera av kroppens olika sinnen och strategier. En nedsättning i något av dessa sinnen eller en oförmåga att använda dessa strategier ökar risken för fallolyckor, som leder till stort personligt lidande för individen och stora kostnader för samhället. Fallpreventivt arbete krävs för att förhindra fallolyckor. För att detta ska förbättras behövs en ök

Kristianstadsslätten breder ut sig i nordöstra Skåne och in i sydvästra Blekinge med sin komplicerade och varierade geologi. De komplexa förhållandena leder till att det finns ett flertal akvifärer i både jordlager och berggrund, där den mest vattenförande formationen är den av glaukonitsand. Syftet med arbetet har varit att undersöka vilket infiltrerat vattenflöde, vid vilket pumptryck, en brunn Kristianstad plain stretches from the northeast of Scania to the southwest of Blekinge with a complicated and varying geology. The complexity has resulted in multiple aquifers in both soil and bedrock, where the highest amount of withdrawable groundwater is in the formation of glauconite sand. The aim of this paper has been to investigate which infiltrated water flow at a certain pumping pressure,

Abstract The self-driving car (SDC) is about to exit fantasy and enter reality. SDCs are expected to be available for purchase in just a few years, and the new technologies that enable autonomous driving hold much promise, regarding safety, environmental impact, increased mobility and higher comfortability. However, there are worrying prospects, too. Some experts worry that the autonomous car

Abstract Since the late 1970’s, China has rapidly increased its exports of industrial products and inflow of foreign direct investment (FDI) through the use of special economic areas (SEA), which offer special benefits to foreign investors and export producers.

For the Geneva motor show 2006 I created a special Trim and Colour for Pininfarina’s three production cars. Trim and Colour means the complete design of materials and colours used in the car exterior and interior. In my diploma work I explored the possibility to unite the image of three different cars by the use of material and colours. I analysed the exhibition environment in which they were to

Till följd av de rådande klimatutmaningarna har intresset för miljö- och klimatfrågor ökat i samhället. Konsumenter, näringsidkare och internationella organisationer strävar alla efter att bidra till den gröna omställningen. Särskilt konsumenterna efterfrågar miljömässigt hållbara produkter, vilket har lett till att många näringsidkare använder miljöpåståenden i sin marknadsföring. Dessa påståendeAs a result of the ongoing climate challenges, interest in environmental and climate issues has increased across society. Consumers, businesses, and international organizations are all striving to contribute to the green transition. In particular, consumers are demanding sustainable products, prompting many businesses to use environmental claims in their marketing. However, such claims are often v

Introduction Neoadjuvant therapy is the standard of care for the treatment of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive breast cancer (BC). Studies on first-generation antibody-drug conjugates, such as trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1), showed equal or slightly lower efficacy than chemotherapy combined with dual HER2 blockade. Trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) is a next-generation conjugat

Recently the question of agriculture development has been emphasised as an important part of balanced sustainable growth in China. My paper accounts for different growth trajectories and development pace between coastal regions and inland provinces. My interest is more convergence-divergence between agriculture development in different regions than convergence-divergence between rural and urban ar

I ett aktiebolag eller motsvarande bolagsform med begränsat ansvar för aktieägarna står aktiekapitalet i centrum. Lagstadgat krav på aktiekapital har förekommit i somliga rättsordningar. I vissa länder har kapitalkravet eftergetts. I detta arbete kommer att göras en komparativ jämförelse mellan Tysklands, Storbritanniens, Sveriges och EU:s aktiebolagsformer med avseende på minsta kapitalkravet i bIn a limited liability company or similar corporate form with limited liability for the shareholders the legal capital plays an important role. The minimum capital requirements have appeared in some jurisdictions. In some countries, the minimum capital requirement have been abolished. This work will be a comparative comparison between German, British and Swedish companies rules with focus on the m

The objectives of treatment in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) are to reduce temporary symptoms due to inflammatory activity and, more importantly, to preserve function. The introduction of potent disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs) in recent years has increased the opportunities for effective treatment. However, these treatments come at a substantially higher cost than traditional DMARDs an

Water service delivery to most residents of peri-urban areas of greater Maputo depends largely on alternative service providers. mostly in the form of small-scale independent providers (SSIPs). This paper discusses the present and long-term challenges facing SSIPs in supplying quality water of sufficient quantity in peri-Urban Maputo and possible human health risks associated with the consumption

OBJECTIVE: To compare the reliability of quantitative measurement of minimum hip joint space with a qualitative global assessment of radiological features for estimating the prevalence of primary osteoarthritis (OA) of the hip in colon radiographs.METHODS: All colon radiographs from patients aged 35 or older, taken at three different radiographic departments in Iceland during the years 1990-96, we

In the past two decades, the eddy covariance technique has been used for an increasing number of methane flux studies at an ecosystem scale. Previously, most of these studies used a closed path setup with a tunable diode laser spectrometer (TDL). Although this method worked well, the TDL has to be calibrated regularly and cooled with liquid nitrogen or a cryogenic system, which limits its use in r

OBJECTIVE: Serum and glucocorticoid regulated kinase 1 (SGK1) expression is increased by aldosterone and is a key regulator of the amiloride-sensitive sodium channel (ENaC) in the distal nephron. We have previously shown that two SNPs in SGK1 (rs1057293 and rs1743966) are associated with blood pressure variation and blood pressure progression in the general population. Therefore, we tested the ass

Gastric bypass surgery results in remission of type 2 diabetes in the majority of patients. The incretin hormones glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) have been implicated in the observed remission. Most knowledge so far has been generated in obese subjects. To isolate the surgical effects of gastric bypass on metabolism and hormone responses from
