Funktionshindrade är intresserade av att delta i samhället. I Internationella konventionen om ekonomiska, sociala och kulturella rättigheter (ICESCR) artikel 15(1)(a) har medlemsstaterna erkänt varje individs mänskliga rättighet att delta i kulturlivet. Alla individer har också rätt till friheten att ''söka, ta emot och sprida uppgifter och idéer av alla slag'' enligt artikel 19(2)

OBJECTIVE: To estimate the accuracy of endometrial thickness measurement in the detection of endometrial cancer among women with postmenopausal bleeding with individual patient data using different meta-analytic strategies. DATA SOURCES: Original data sets of studies detected after reviewing the included studies of three previous reviews on this subject. An additional literature search of publishe

Leukotriene A(4) hydrolase (LTA4H) is a key enzyme in the inflammatory process of mammals. It is an epoxide hydrolase and an aminopeptidase of the M1 family of the MA clan of Zn-metallopeptidases. We have solved the crystal structure of LTA4H in complex with N-[3(R)-[(hydroxyamino)carbonyl]-2-benzyl-1-oxopropyl]-L-alanine, a potent inhibitor of several Zn-metalloenzymes, both endopeptidases and am

Patients with perihilar cholangiocarcinoma and gallbladder cancer extending into the hilum often present with jaundice and a small future liver remnant (FLR). If resectable, preoperative biliary drainage and portal vein embolization (PVE) are indicated. Classically, these measures have been performed sequentially, separated by 4-6 weeks.

First, we explore the performance of nonword repetition (NWR) in children with specific language impairment (SLI) and typically developing children (TD) in order to investigate the accuracy of NWR as a clinical marker for SLI in Swedishspeaking school-age children. Second, we examine the relationship between NWR, family aggregation, and parental level of education in children with SLI. A sample of

This Letter presents a search at the LHC for s-channel single top-quark production in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 8 TeV. The analyzed data set was recorded by the ATLAS detector and corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 20.3 fb(-1). Selected events contain one charged lepton, large missing transverse momentum and exactly two b-tagged jets. A multivariate event class

Global warming and climate change is projected to cause intensified extreme weather events. Food production is threatened by this and crop yields have shown to be negatively affected by extreme weather events. This study examined the correlations between extreme precipitation and temperature and crop yield of spring barley in Säby in Uppsala, Sweden in 1981-2021. Crop yield of spring barley was co

Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) is the study of fluid flows for the analysis of phenomena by scenarios simulated in a computer-based environment. One of the most well-known CFD simulation packages in the fire safety field is Fire Dynamic Simulator (FDS). The tasks of setting up an FDS input file can be time-consuming especially for complex building geometries. Building Information Modelling (BI

The purpose of this thesis is to explicate different strategies that states can, and do, use to negotiate with challenging partners in conflict situations. A challenging partner, as defined in this thesis, refers to a key player in minority position who is blocking negotiations from reaching consensus agreements. A theoretical model containing five different strategies is developed using theories

This project utilizes an electrochemical recover unit to extract succinic acid through an anion exchange membrane. The extraction was first used in abiotic experiments using synthetic broth mimicking a fermentation with Actinobacillus succinogenes. The extraction was favored by high salinity of the anolyte and a pH controlled at pH 7 in the catholyte. Batch fermentations were coupled with the extr

Epilepsy is a neurological disorder, affecting approximately 1% of the population. The high rate of drug-resistance in epilepsy in general (30%), and temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) in particular, pose a serious clinical problem. Thus, novel treatments for drug-resistant epilepsy is highly warranted. Gene therapy has been suggested to be a promising approach to target drug-resistant focal epilepsy si

Background: Crohn disease and biliary diseases have been associated with small-bowel adenocarcinoma (SBA). We examined how medical conditions affect the risk of SBA. Methods: A population-based European multicentre case-control study during the period 1995-97 including 95 histologically verified cases of SBA along with 3335 population controls; 70 cases (74%) and 2070 (62%) controls were interview

By giving a brief overview of the metaconcepts in nursing, with a focus on environment, we sketch a theoretical framework for an emancipatory perspective in nursing care practice. To meet the requirements of equality in care and treatment, we have in our theoretical framework added a critical lifeworld perspective to the antioppressive practice, to meet requirements of equity in health care encoun
