BACKGROUND: Anal sphincter rupture is a serious complication of vaginal delivery and almost half the affected women have persistent defecatory symptoms despite adequate primary repair. During the past decade, the incidence of anal sphincter ruptures has been increasing in Sweden and is currently estimated to occur in 2.5% of vaginal deliveries. The aim of the study was to report the frequency of a

This paper is based on the keynote talk that I gave on the EAHIL+ICAHIS+ICLC 2015 Workshop in Edinburgh. A starting point for the talk was the theme for the Workshop: “Research-minded: supporting, understanding, conducting research”. Some features of qualitative research are presented and a number of methodsare mentioned before zooming in on interviewing, discussing some aspects of that method wit

Se-methyl L-selenocysteine (MeSeCys) is one of the major organic selenium compounds acquired from the diet by human beings. It has been shown to have anticancer activity and cancer prevention functions. However, its antioxidant activity, largely related to its biological function, has not been well characterized so far. We here report a stopped-flow kinetic study of the reduction of the Pt(IV) ant

The German bread market is considered one of the most developed and diverse bread markets worldwide. However, until so far no empirical evidence exists with respect to consumers liking and willingness to pay for different value-added attributes in whole grain bread. Thus, our study is the first one providing empirical evidence on how German consumers perceive different value-added attributes in wh

This thesis deals with the design and synthesis of rhodium and iridium bis-η2 diolefin catalysts and their applications in C–C bond formation and asymmetric catalysis.More specifically, the second chapter describes the development of inter- and intramolecular (5+2) cycloadditions catalyzed by cationic iridium(I) complexes that lead to the formation of seven-membered rings in a single step. DFT was

The sequence diversity of protein families is a result of the biophysical selection pressures that shaped their evolutionary history. Among the dominant pressures is selection for protein thermostability, which in itself is an attractive target in protein engineering because of its importance for various biopharmaceutical properties, the performance of industrial enzymes, and the ability to design

The aim of this special issue is to invite scholars in public administration to address issues of power in relation to evaluation practices in the public sector. Power is one of those big, difficult, and inherently nebulous concepts that both scholars and practitioners appear to consciously or unconsciously avoid. Our ambition in this introduction is not to present a comprehensive conceptual revie

Scrum is currently a widely used process in most areas of software development. Conversely, usability activities as prescribed in the area of HCI are not widely used in the software industry, especially not in agile software development projects. Through an analysis of interview and survey data from five studies we scrutinize the reasons for choosing Scrum, consequences of using Scrum, and study t

This bachelor thesis investigates how women's representation in municipal councils affects the political agenda in two Swedish municipalities, Trelleborg and Landskrona. Through a qualitative analysis of municipal council minutes from the year 2022, it compares how issues related to women's rights and interests are addressed in these municipalities. The study applies theories from Lena Wän

The national plebiscite in Colombia regarding the peace agreement between the government and FARC (Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia) was held on October 2nd 2016 and was suprisingly won by the No-side with a minimum of votes resulting in a rejection of the current peace deal. Yet, a majority of the Colombian people did not show up at the polls to vote. Less than 40% of the electorates actual

From a communicative perspective, this study intended to achieve a greater under- standing and knowledge of how internal communication, structure and culture con- tribute to the anchoring of an organization's identity. The study also aimed to make visible the prevailing power relations and its importance for the creation of identity. The survey was conducted in an organization that was part of
