Congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) is a severe birth defect frequently associated with pulmonary hypoplasia, pulmonary hypertension, and heart failure. Since amniotic fluid comprises proteins of both fetal and maternal origin, its analysis could provide insights on mechanisms underlying CDH and provide biomarkers for early diagnosis, severity of pulmonary changes and treatment response. The stu
Psoriasis is a chronic, immune-mediated inflammatory disease with a worldwide prevalence ranging between 0.51 and 11.43%. It results in a large clinical and social burden, with patients frequently suffering from reduced quality of life, psychologic distress and debilitating comorbidities. Biologic agents are used to establish and maintain disease control in patients with moderate-to-severe psorias
Shared housing is a rather unusual phenomenon in Sweden. However, due to the decreasing availability of affordable housing and a large share of single-person households in urban areas, sharing is on the rise and new forms of shared housing have entered the market. By analysing how shared housing overlaps with existing patterns of socioeconomic segregation and by interviewing developers of diverse
The decreasing oil supply, more stringent pollutant legislations and strong focus on decreasing carbon dioxide emissions drives the research of more efficient and clean combustion engines. One such combustion engine concept is Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition (HCCI) which potentially achieves high efficiency and low NOx and soot emissions. One practical realization of HCCI in SI engines is
Oncologists frequently approach patients to discuss difficult topics, such as bad news about cancer progression and referrals to palliative care and hospice. To communicate effectively in these difficult situations, it is helpful to assess what the patient knows and wants to know about their disease in general and, specifically, their prognosis. Although some patients fully accept the diagnosis of
BACKGROUND: Physical function constitutes a key component of outcome assessment for almost all osteoarthritis interventions. The aim was to compare physical function measured using a self-assessed performance-based test versus self-reported function using questionnaires among individuals with knee or hip osteoarthritis (OA) participating in a digital exercise and education therapy.METHODS: We anal
Inequalities of opportunity affect a person’s life expectancy and access to basic services and human rights through discrimination, abuse, and lack of access to justice. High levels of inequality of opportunity discourage skill accumulation, choke economic and social mobility, and, consequently, depress economic growth. Inequality also entrenches uncertainty, vulnerability, and insecurity; undermi
Security and sustainability are prioritized goals in the “Western liberal” world. Maintaining democratic resources while simultaneously strengthening society’s ability to deal with security issues firmly resonates with ideals associated with social sustainability. However, merging normative theories like security and social sustainability produces conceptual difficulties that are hard to resolve.
The ALICE Collaboration reports three measurements in ultraperipheral proton-lead collisions at forward rapidity. The exclusive two-photon process γγ→μ+μ- and the exclusive photoproduction of J/ψ are studied. J/ψ photoproduction with proton dissociation is measured for the first time at a hadron collider. The cross section for the two-photon process of dimuons in the invariant mass range from 1 to
Popular Abstract in Swedish Översvämningar i städer ökar på grund av ökad urbanisering samt klimatförändringar och klimatvariabilitet. Denna avhandling presenterar effekterna av klimatförändringar och intensiv nederbörd i städer samt handhavandet av översvämning i urban områden i Mumbai, Indien och i Skåne samt Göteborg. En rad statistiska och analytiska verktyg har tillämpats för att studera nedeFlooding in urban basins is intensifying due to increasing urbanization and climate change and variability. This thesis presents how the effects of climate change and high-intensive rainfall on the urban drainage system and management of flooding in urban areas of were studied in Mumbai, India and Southern Sweden, including Skåne and Gothenburg. Various statistical and analytical tools were applie
The almost complete focus on the aggregate level in previous research on demographic, socioeconomic and cultural determinants of the fertility transition means that we to a large extent not only lack knowledge about the specific mechanisms of the decline, but also its socioeconomic patterns. In this paper we explore socioeconomic fertility differentials in an industrializing community of southern
The purpose of this dissertation is to explore and shed light on the subject content within Physical Education and Health (PEH). The first aim of the study is to describe and analyse what knowledge is legitimate within the subject, in the syllabus, as viewed by teachers and during the realisation of lessons. The second aim is to clarify and analyse similarities and dissimilarities between these th
Denna uppsats syftar till att utreda var gränsen för den upphovsrättsliga inskränkningen om exemplarframställning för privat bruk går, när det kommer till publicering av bilder och fotografi på Internet och i sociala medier. Upphovsrätt är en ensamrätt, vilken innebär att upphovsmannen besitter en uteslutande förfoganderätt till sitt verk. Ensamrätten består av dels ekonomiska rättigheter och delsIn my final thesis I aim to investigate where the limit of the copyright restriction on copying and reproduction for private use goes, when it comes to posting photos and photography on the Internet and in different social media forums. Copyright is an exclusive right, which means that the author possesses an exclusive right of use to his work. Exclusivity comprises both economic rights and moral
The aim of this study is to analyse the social workers assessments about economic assistance to clients with a drug- or alcoholic abuse. Furthermore this paper will also shed light on the differences in thoughts that these social workers have on economic assistance for clients with drug- or alcoholic abuse. Our questions for the study is if there are any rules and routines in the different communi
Metal contamination of lakes can bring negative effects to aquatic biota, and to the general health of the ecosystem. Urban discharge is a known source of common metals. In cold regions, snow disposal sites further enhances the risk of contaminating recipient lakes, due to accumulation of pollutants. The importance of this source is poorly known and is further investigated in this study. Metal con
The urban population in developing countries was, in 2005, more than 2.3 billion people, which forms an increase by 7 times comparing to the situation in 1950. This is expected to increase even more, until it reaches 3.9 billion by 2030. A parallel urban growth results in high density cities and informal settlements and the creation of urban slums. Naturally, it is the urban poor who are not able
When building new constructions under ground level in cities it is important that the foundations of neighboring buildings are undisturbed. The regulations regarding soil deformations are hence very strict and conventional methods of predicting soil behavior is often too crude. Finite element calculations are therefore becoming an increasingly important tool used to predict soil behavior in and ar
This thesis focuses on developing energy barrier models that increase photovoltaic hot carrier extraction efficiency. Hot carriers are electrons containing an excess of kinetic energy and the energy required to leave the valence band. In mitigating losses and increasing the efficiency of solar cells, hot carriers offer the opportunity to extract this kinetic energy. The study of extracting the kin
