Popular Abstract in Swedish Livskvalitet och problem i dagligt liv under och efter akut leukemi eller högmalignt lymfom - ett omvårdnadsperspektiv. Syftet med avhandlingen var att undersöka hur personer med akut leukemi eller hög- malignt lymfom upplevde och hanterade de problem som uppstod i det dagliga livet i samband med sjukdom och behandling och efter det att behandlingen avslutats. StudierThe aims of this thesis were, to investigate the impact on daily living of acute leukaemia or highly malignant lymphoma when under treatment, viewed retrospectively and from a longitudinal perspective, from the point of view of the patients and their spouses, and to ascertain their view of the nursing care provided. A combination of qualitative and quantitative methods was use i.e. open-ended inte

This volume is the result of a conference on population and development held in Båstad, 17 - 18 April 1991. with the participation of social scientists, health specialists and development administrators from the Scandinavian countries. The contributions to the conference cover a wide range of issues. Starting with a critical assessment of conventional thinking on demographic prospects, the volume

The distribution of 47 species in the south Swedish provinces of Skane (Scania), Halland, Blekinge, Oland and Smaland has been mapped. Most of these species are endemic to central Fennoscandia and many reach their southern distribution limits in the investigated area. However, there are also some local endemics as well as some species with a wider north European distribution. Within the area, the

Previous studies in drylands have shown that while gender roles are becoming more flexible, privatization and formalization of land tenure tends to marginalize women in drylands while environmental degradation leads to differential changes in gender workload. Chepareria, a ward in West Pokot County, has undergone the above-mentioned tenure and environmental changes and is nowadays dominated by pri

The critical features of a strategy to promote improved teaching and learning are explored in this article from a socio-cultural perspective in a research-intensive institution. The paper presents theoretical underpinnings and implications as well as an empirical case study of such a strategy and its seemingly successful results. The strategy builds on scholarship of teaching and learning beyond i

Fertility and outcome of pregnancy were assessed in all 78 women below 40 years of age in a total, unselected series of patients with Crohn's disease, diagnosed during a 17-year period and consecutively treated with resectional surgery, in most cases at an early stage. The median follow-up time after the primary operation was 12.8 years. During the observation time there were 87 pregnancies in 44

A part of the project of transforming the worn down medieval fortress Glimmingehus into a tourist attraction for the people of the 20th century, was to dig out the once filled in moat surrounding it. This very labour intensive project did not only result in a nostalgic atmosphere but also a large amount of fairly well preserved finds, since the moat had once been used as a rubbish dump. A part of

I Sverige har forskningen om svartas upplevelser i akademin varit begränsade, på grund av en självbild som är färgblind och som förhindrar erkännandet av svartas existens (praktik, tanke, kroppar). Denna studie är ett kulturanalytiskt försök att kunna bidra och bredda forskningsfältet för kritiska studier i den svenska akademin, genom att utforska svarta kvinnors känslomässiga och kroppsliga uppleIn Sweden the research about Black people’s experiences in academia is quite limited, because of a self-image that is colourblind which prevents the acknowledgement of Black existence (practice, thought, bodies). This thesis is a cultural analytical attempt to contribute and widen the research field of critical studies in Swedish academia, through exploring Black female’s emotional and body experi

Planet earth is getting hotter and regional climates are becoming increasingly unpredictable across the globe. Cities and communities on all continents are already impacted by the changing climate, but also by two other crises – the fossil-energy decent and the 6th mass extinction event. These three complex and interconnected crises all increase the risk of food becoming a scarce resource. In fact

Från att den svenska synen på avtalsförhållanden tidigare betonat parternas avtalsfrihet och starkt präglats av en restriktivitet mot att fylla ut avtal med förpliktelser som inte uttryckligen följer av dessa, har utvecklingen på avtalsrättens område gått emot en syn som snarare ser avtalsförhållandet som ett samarbetsförhållande än ett motpartsförhållande. Svenska avtalsparter har i takt med den The Swedish view of contractual relations has previously emphasized the parties’ contractual freedom and has been characterized by a restrictiveness towards imposing obligations on the parties beyond what expressly follows from the agreement. Development in the area of contract law has led to the contractual relationship being seen rather as a cooperative relationship than a counter-party relation

The ongoing climate change is not only a challenge for the environment but also for economic and social development. The continuing rise of consumption and production of natural resources that needs to be preserved is affecting the environment. The urbanization is contributing to a higher demand of commercial buildings and housing, this needs resources like building material which releases carbon

Some numerical methods approximate the Jacobian using finite differences as part of their process. The finite difference method of approximation resembles the limit definition of the derivative. Since a computer cannot handle the mathematical concept of limits, a sufficiently small number has to be chosen as an increment. However, when the increments are chosen outside of certain acceptable ranges

Glycoprotein 2 (GP2) is a glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored protein primarily produced by pancreatic acinar cells. It is expressed on M cells and can interact with the type 1 fimbrial adhesin (FimH), a component of type 1 pili found in gram-negative bacteria e.g Salmonella. It shares homology to Tamm-Horsfall protein (THP) which has been shown to have antibacterial effects and can also i

The digital technology has in a short time led to dramatic developments in today's society as the majority of crimes today have taken a new form on social media. The dominant crimes on Facebook and Instagram have mainly shown to be illegal threats,harassment and sexual harassment among young women which only about four percent are solved and while the rest of the reports are dropped. The probl

I Alternativa övningsmetoder för musiker – del 1 presenteras olika sätt på vilka musikaliska färdigheter kan övas genom mentalisering och andra alternativa övningsmetoder som inte inkluderar användande av musikernas huvudinstrument. Den visar också hur dessa metoder kan kombineras. Här beskrivs även hur och varför dessa arbetssätt fungerar för musikalisk instudering individuellt och i en duo samt Alternative Methods of Practising Music – A study of practising without one’s main instrument for single musicians and small ensembles – Part 1 presents different ways in which musical skills can be practised through imagery and other alternative methods of practising that do not involve the use of the musicians’ main instruments. It also shows how these methods may be combined. Furthermore, it de

Climate change is projected to cause unprecedented levels of global change and it will alter the ways in which humans currently rely on getting essential resources such as food. Africa is considered to be the most vulnerable continent to this change, with many countries that have low economic stability and insecure food sources a change to the way resources can be accessed could be detrimental to

The use of reliable distance estimates is key to derive accurate three-dimensional velocities of celestial objects. Systematic overestimation and large uncertainties in the distances will thus provide misleading information of an object's kinematics. In turn, astronomers will get a flawed understanding of dynamical properties of substructures in the Milky Way. In this paper, we employ the imp

In the past few decades the ways of addressing past atrocities in states on the verge of transition from abusive regimes to human rights abiding democracies have developed into an area of international law commonly known as 'Transitional Justice'. The focus lies on facilitating the transition through different measures with the purpose of addressing the past and seeking reparation for the

This bachelor thesis investigates how investments in new sets of transportation infrastructures could affect regional development. By using central theories for transportation geography and regional development, empirical comparison and interviews with experts within the field and politicians, this paper answer four different research questions to discuss the purpose of the thesis. The questions a
