Background: Apart from a consistent focus on treating inflammation, patients with inflammatory arthritis (IA) report a range of unmet needs. Many experience not only residual symptoms but also various other physical, psychological, and social effects. Therefore, this study aimed to develop a complex Interdisciplinary Nurse-coordinated self-management (INSELMA) intervention for patients with IA, as
In solid mechanics, linear structures often exhibit (local) nonlinear behavior when close to failure. For instance, the elastic deformation of a structure becomes plastic after being deformed beyond recovery. To properly assess such problems in a real-life application, we need fast and multi-query evaluations of coupled linear and nonlinear structural systems, whose approximations are not straight
Popular Abstract in Swedish Brosk bekläder våra leder och förser dem med en slät yta vilket förhindrar en direkt ben mot ben kontakt. Det fungerar också som stötdämpare i belastade leder och ger glidytan mycket låg friktion. Vatten hålls kvar i broskets matrix på grund av den negativt laddade proteogykanen Aggrecan vilken i sin tur hålls kvar i ett nätverk av kollagenfibrer. När en led belastas prThe cartilage matrix is made up of a fibrillar meshwork comprising type II collagen and other associated proteins. One main function of this network is to retain the large aggregating proteoglycan, aggrecan, a vital component in the regulation of fluid flux in cartilage. In disease such as osteoarthritis, the breakdown of the collagen network appears to be the final step in destruction of cartilag
Popular Abstract in Swedish Dagens samhälle är mycket beroende av fordonsbränslen och kemikalier som producerats av råolja. Framtidens tillgång på råolja är oviss, det enda som är säkert är att det är en ändlig resurs. Användningen av olja bidrar dessutom till koldioxidutsläpp till atmosfären. För att säkra framtida tillförsel av energi och kemikalier till samhället och för att uppnå ett mer klimaMany scientists believe that the oil production will peak in the near future, if the peak has not already occurred. Peak oil theories and uncertain future oil deliveries have stimulated interest in alternative sources of fuel and chemicals. This interest has been enhanced by concerns about energy security and about the climate change caused by emissions of carbon dioxide. The result has been incre
Background Coronary artery disease is one of the most common causes of death. A common cardiac examination is to give a visualization of the myocardial blood flow by injecting a radio pharmaceutical and detect the radiation with a camera. The camera has for decades been using thallium doped sodium iodide (NaI(Tl)) as the detector material. New detector materials have been developed because of the
The present study investigated second language (L2) learners’ processing of filler-gap dependencies and tested the implications of Clahsen and Felser’s (2006) shallow structure hypothesis according to which L2 learners underuse syntactic information during the processing of these sentence types. Advanced L2 learners of English (native Swedish speakers) listened to English sentences with object-rel
The adolescent experience has over the last twenty years differed immensely from earlier generations. Generation Z, born somewhere between 1995 and 2010, are what some would call ‘digital natives’, being the very first children to be brought up in a digital advanced world with easy access to information and inspiration through constant connection to the world wide web. This research draws in parti
Denna studie behandlar barnpornografibrottets placering i Brottsbalken (BrB). Uppsatsens syfte är att utreda barnpornografibrottets placering i BrB och dess bakomliggande skäl. Placeringen av barnpornografibrottet granskas ur ett allmänkritiskt perspektiv, men även med ett barnperspektiv. Framställningen beskriver gällande rätt och brottets placering i ljuset av brottets skyddsintressen. Studien bThis thesis discusses the crime of child pornography and its placement in Swedish criminal law, “Brottsbalken” (BrB). The purpose of the thesis is to examine the placement of the crime in BrB and the reasons behind the placement. The placement of the crime is viewed with a general critical perspective, but also with a child perspective. The thesis describes how the law is designed and the placemen
The recovery of ‘waste heat’ from industrial and urban processes could meet a significant share of heating demands in urban and semi-urban areas. Replacing conventional heat sources in district heating (DH) systems with recovered heat could decrease primary energy inputs in a sector that globally relies to 90% on fossil fuels. Yet, despite the environmental, social, and economic benefits of waste
The rise of solar cells have been received with open arms as a renewable energy resource in Sweden. The new generation of solar cells containing semi conductive type III-V nanowires may pose, without proper safety measures, negative implications on health and the environment. In this study an overview of possible risks is considered in the waste management with solar cells containing nanowires. Al
The purpose of this thesis is to broaden my understanding of color as a creative tool of architecture in spatiality. The study will focus on different spatial phenomenons that can arise depending on how color interacts with objects, surfaces and spatiality. Parallel to this, different tools will be identified and then practiced in order to find ways for color to be included in the early design pro
Emittenters skyldighet att offentliggöra insiderinformation enligt marknadsmissbruksförordningen (MAR) är betydelsefull för att upprätthålla en transparent och effektiv värdepappersmarknad med allmänhetens förtroende. Syftet med denna uppsats var att undersöka de bedömningar emittenten ställs inför till följd av MAR när information som potentiellt utgör insiderinformation uppstår inför offentliggöIssuers’ duty to disclose inside information according to the market abuse regulation (MAR) is important in order to maintain a transparent and efficient market with the confidence of the public. The purpose of this essay was to examine the assessments faced by the issuer as a result of MAR when information that could constitute inside information arises prior to the disclosure of an interim repor
In this master's thesis the ability to estimate the respiratory frequency from heart rate variability measurement is analyzed. The goal was to implement a solution that is easily transferable to real time. Starting from the initial processing of data, continuing with two different spectrogram implementations, a single spectrogram and a multitaper spectrogram, combined with three different meth
European environmental policy has in the recent years become more and more prominent, and with the European Commission launching the European green deal, environmental policy has become a part of the centre stage of European policy. When looking to decarbonise the economy natural gas becomes a favourable solution. However, natural gas is not without a problem i.e., natural gas is still a fossil f
Travel on railway in Sweden has increased steadily over the past three decades and there are today twice as many passengers travelling by train as there were 30 years ago. The increasing awareness of environmental issues with other methods of transportation is likely to favour railway travel, and so the number of passengers is expected to continue to rise. As the number of passengers increase, so
Uppsatsens syfte är att undersöka den tidigare outforskade svenska konsuln i Alger, George Logie (1694-1776), och sammanflätningen av aktörer som var drivande bakom den kommersiella expansionen i Medelhavet efter Stora nordiska krigets slut. Expansionen resulterade i ökad handel med en infrastrukturell etablering av flertalet konsulat, vilket ledde vidare till utökat utbyte mellan Nordeuropa, Mede
In the present-day world, a state is only one of a number of social actors, each of which has its own identity, functions and structure. The successful functioning and even existential survival of the state is dependent on various factors, including its capacity to face the challenges of the processes of globalisation, including new threats which emerge from the development of communication techno
Anställningsförhållandet grundas på ett personligt förhållande och präglas av ett starkt behov av förtroende. I bestående anställningsavtal skall arbetstagaren i stort sett sätta arbetsgivarens intresse framför sitt eget. Vilken skyldighet har emellertid arbetstagare att iaktta arbetsgivarens intresse vid ingående av anställningsavtalet? Syftet med denna uppsats har varit att utreda i vilken utstrWhen entering into a contract it is important to maintain a certain grade of honesty and loyalty. Not only is it wrong to deceive a party in order to reach a beneficial agreement, it is in certain cases also contrary to good faith and fair dealing to leave a mistaken party in error. The law therefore imposes a duty of disclosure that requires a party to reveal all matters known, in its entirety, t
