Family history of depression is an important risk factor for depression. The aim of this study was to examine whether the effect of family history of depression is confounded by individual and familial socioeconomic factors (i.e., country of origin, educational attainment, family income and mobility) and neighborhood environmental factors (i.e., neighborhood deprivation and neighborhood social cap
Background: To become a parent of a child who is born small for gestational age can lead to challenges in addition to the newly acquired parenting role. There is currently a lack of knowledge regarding parents' experiences of having a child born small for gestational age. Purpose: The purpose of this study was to describe the experience of becoming a parent of a child small for gestational age Des
BACKGROUND/AIMS: The aim of this study was to develop a risk model for intraoperative complication (IC) during cataract surgery, defined as posterior capsule rupture and/or zonular dehiscence, and to include previous intravitreal therapy (pIVT) in the model.METHODS: This retrospective register-based study covered patients reported to the Swedish National Cataract Register (SNCR) between 1 January
Treatment of melanoma with a BRAF inhibitor (BRAFi) frequently initiates development of BRAFi resistance, leading to increased tumor progression and metastasis. Previously, we showed that combined inhibition of elevated WNT5A and IL-6 signaling reduced the invasion and migration of BRAFi-resistant (BRAFi-R) melanoma cells. However, the use of a combined approach per se and the need for high inhibi
Self-injury is associated with significant psychological distress and functional impairments, including difficulties with self-care. However, little is known about how individuals engaging in self-injury perceive and manage self-care in their daily lives. This study aimed to explore the lived experiences of self-care among individuals receiving psychiatric treatment for self-injury and to identify
In recent years, Swedish municipalities have introduced programs that combine Swedish language education with vocational training. However, due to the novelty and lack of an established framework, data and research on their effectiveness in improving immigrant labour market performance is limited. This essay addresses this gap by estimating the causal effect of vocational training combined with Sw
Enligt nyligen publicerade vetenskapliga rapporter blir planeten varmare i en takt aldrig tidigare skådad. Om inte utsläppen av växthusgaser minskas kraftigt så kommer temperaturmålet på 1,5 °C som fastställdes i Parisavtalet att överskridas. Även om alla påverkas av klimatförändringar på ett eller annat sätt så är barn särskilt sårbara för effekterna. Unga generationer idag kommer också att få taAccording to recently published scientific reports, the planet is getting warmer at an unprecedented rate. The temperature goal of 1,5°C set in the Paris Agreement will be exceeded unless deep reductions in greenhouse gas emissions are made. While everyone feels the effects of climate change, children are particularly vulnerable to them and will also be left with the impacts for a longer time. Con
Title: Critical success factors that influence the corporate venturing process Seminar date: 2013-05-02 Course: ENTN39 Internship and Degree Project Authors: Martin Zündorf & Marcus Holgersson Advisor/s: Joakim Winborg Purpose: We investigated the influence of different factors on the corporate venturing process. Therefore we combined several factors from the organizational level with cha
Baker’s yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae’s potential in industrial biotechnology for producing valuable products e.g. biofuels, bulk chemicals, bio-flavours and pharmaceuticals is established. In order to achieve efficient production, the intracellular balance of the NADH/NAD + redox couple must be monitored and maintained, as this influences the feasibility of over 100 reactions in the cell. My ap
As urban areas expand rapidly worldwide, wildlife is exposed to a wide range of novel environmental stressors, such as increased air pollution and artificial light at night. Birds in highly polluted and/or urbanized habitats have been found to have increased antioxidant protection, which is likely important to avoid accumulation of oxidative damage, which can have negative fitness consequences. Ye
