Popular Abstract in Swedish När patienten lämnar sjukhuset och återvänder hem efter en operation för kolorektal cancer (tjocktarm och ändtarm) innebär det en stor omställning. De är inte återställda efter den stora bukoperationen och upplever olika symtom som smärta, tarmbesvär och stor trötthet. Eftersom vårdtiderna blir allt kortare har deras återhämtning bara påbörjats på sjukhuset och de kommeThe overall aim of this thesis is to study the experiences of patients and next of kin with regard to information and information needs after being discharged after colorectal cancer surgery. The aim was also to study factors related to this. Different methods were combined in this explorative study in order to obtain diverse types of data. Patients who had undergone surgery for colorectal cancer

A stochastic model for interpreting BrdUrd DNA FCM-derived data is proposed. The model is based on branching processes and describes the progression of the DNA distribution of BrdUrd-labelled cells through the cell cycle. With the main focus on estimating the S phase duration and its variation, the DNA replication rate is modelled by a piecewise linear function, while assuming a gamma distribution

Popular Abstract in Swedish Resultatet efter en höftprotesoperation är otvetydigt gott med smärtfrihet och god funktion ofta livet ut hos de flesta. 2012 opererades i Sverige cirka 16000 patienter med höftprotes och siffran stiger. 3-4% av patienterna drabbas av en proteslossning under de första tio åren och behöver opereras om, en så kallad revision. Den gamla protesen avlägsnas då och ersätts meThe clinical success of primary hip replacement is paramount but the need for revisions will continue to increase due to the increasing number of operated individuals. In Sweden, the number of hip revisions in 2012 exceeded 2,300. During implant loosening, some of the bone in the femur is lost, which can make the revision more difficult. One way of handling bone loss has been the impaction techniq

Food insecurity is a reality faced by millions of people worldwide. Poor access and availability to food markets, poverty, and uncertain global system futures all exacerbate this issue. In seeking to combat food insecurity for South Carolina residents and improve the viability and resilience of local food markets around Greenville County, South Carolina, this assessment determines optimal potentia

Det skånska landskapet har sedan 1800talet varit starkt påverkat av lantbruket. Åar har rätats ut, fördjupats och kulverterats, vilket i kombination med en ökad gödsling har lett till ökat näringsläckage som gett konsekvenser i form av minskad biologisk mångfald och övergödning. Ett sätt att minska övergödningen är att anlägga vallbesådda skyddszoner längs vattendrag. Lantbrukare kan få ersättningThe landscape of Scania in southern Sweden has been heavily influenced by agriculture since the 1800s. Rivers have been straightened, deepened and culverted which in combination with increased fertilization has had consequences such as loss of biodiversity and eutrophication. One way to reduce eutrophication is to construct grass seeded buffer zones along watercourses. Farmers can receive compensa

Glulam is almost exclusively the chosen material of timber frame structures. Of those, three-hinged (three-pin) portal frames are incomparably the most common type. Being both statically determinate and stable against horizontal forces in its own plane offer both practical (basic constructive details) and economical benefits. The design of the haunch allows for various solutions: it can be curved

Syftet med uppsatsen är att utreda vad som anses vara barnets bästa i en situation där barnet har bortförts till och vistats i ett nytt land under så lång tid att barnet har anpassat sig till förhållandena där. Undersökningen är begränsad till länder som är anslutna till 1980 års Haagkonvention. Ska barnet återföras till ursprungslandet eller stanna kvar i det nya landet? Finns det en tidsmässig gThe purpose of this essay is to examine what is considered to be in the child’s best interest in a situation where the child has been abducted to and stayed in a new country for so long that the child has adapted to the conditions there. The examination is limited to countries that are part of the Convention on the Civil Aspects of International Child Abduction. Will the child be transported back

In Sweden approximately ten percent of all children grows up in a family where at least one parent is having an alcohol related addiction. Since 1998 the development of group activities for children in this situation has been immense. The aim of group activities is to break the child's isolation and make them feel that they are not lonely in their experiences, give them knowledge about addicti

Ökande skador på skogen har observerats i stora delar av Europa sedan mitten av 1970-talet. Samma indikationer på skador sågs ganska snart även i Sverige. Skadorna observerades först på barrträdsbestånd, men under 1980-talet observerades även skador på lövträd, framförallt hos bok och ek. Skogsstyrelsen lät till följd av detta genomföra skogsskadeinventeringar 1988, 1993 och 1999 av bok (Fagus sylSince the middle of the 1970´s damage to forest have been observed in large areas of central Europe. The same indications on forest damage were soon found in Sweden as well. Forest damage was first observed in coniferous forest stands, but during the 1980´s damage indication were also observed on deciduous forest stand, particularly on beech and oak. To investigate this further the National Board

The report, designed for interested parties of the industrial food industry in France, is founded on three research questions inspired by literature studies of sustainable development, management of corporate social responsibility, industrial food production and food product quality. The research questions search for the identification and explanation of critical categories of concern relevant for

This study has been conducted in order to try to clarify how one as a piano teacher, by the choice of teaching material and method of teaching, can influence the process of learning. The study deals with novice teaching and more specifically first semester teaching. I have studied three books, their methods and how they take on the task of introducing music and piano playing to novice students. I

Utgångspunkten för uppsatsen är Svea hovrätts uppmärksammade dom i mål B 2457–23 (Swedbank-domen). Domen rörde Swedbanks tidigare vd, Birgitte Bonnesen, som dömdes för grovt svindleri på grund av att hon undanhållit information om misstänkt penningtvätt i bankens estländska verksamhet. Eftersom svindleribrottet sällan prövas i domstol har Swedbank-domen stor betydelse för hur verkställande direktöThe starting point of this thesis is the widely discussed ruling by the Svea court of Appeal in case B 2457–23 (the Swedbank-case). The case concerned Swedbank’s former chief executive officer (CEO), Birgitte Bonnesen, who was convicted of gross swindle for withholding information about suspected money laundering in the bank’s Estonian operations. Since swindle cases are rare, the Swedbank-case is

The terrestrial ecosystem stores up to 2400Gt of carbon in the upper 1m of the soil profile. However, this carbon storage is not stable and is vulnerable to loss. Agricultural soils with continuous heavy management drive a release of this soil carbon to the atmosphere. Recently, the implementation of perennial crops has been suggested as a method to facilitate a greater carbon sequestration. Howev
