Popular Abstract in Swedish Syfte Syftet med denna avhandling var att undersöka om barn födda i Sverige till invandrare (icke-Svenskar) hade en ökad risk för typ 1 diabetes (T1D) och om immunogenetiska markörer för T1D (HLA och icke-HLA genetiska faktorer samt ö-cellsantikroppar) skiljde sig från svenska T1D barn (Svenskar). Målsättningen var också att analysera ärftliga förutsättningar (T1D och TThis thesis examined whether the offspring of immigrants (non-Swedes) to Sweden are at increased risk of Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) when they are born or live in Sweden. It also evaluated if their T1D and T2D-related genes differed from Swedish patients and whether this genetic heritage determined the types and existence of islet autoantibodies at time of diagnosis and affected the classification of di

Background More than one in five patients who undergo treatment for breast cancer will develop breast cancer-related lymphedema (BCRL). BCRL can occur as a result of breast cancer surgery and/or radiation therapy. BCRL can negatively impact comfort, function, and quality of life (QoL). Manual lymphatic drainage (MLD), a type of hands-on therapy, is frequently used for BCRL and often as part of com

To develop a meaningful allocation policy as the basis for economic welfare, it’s necessary to make some kind of comparison of the utility different people get with the various options that are available. If you put the greatest emphasis on raising the overall benefit of society, or seek to maximize other ideals such as liberty, equality and justice, the allocation will be different. I have in thi

Created in the aftermath of the Second World War, the main task of the UN is the maintenance of international peace and security. Although the UN Charter, signed in San Francisco in 1945, has remained almost the same, the world has changed. In order to adapt the Charter to new upcoming problems two main possibilities exist. The Charter can either be changed itself, following the procedure set fort

This thesis examines the humanitarian situation that has unfolded in Zimbabwe during the ZANU-PF fast track land reform. It attempts to; 1) analyze whether the SADC has the necessary political capacity to redress the Zimbabwean human rights victims during the land reform. In order to do this it seeks to; 2) determine whether the land reform is in breach with the SADC Treaty and the SADC Protocol o

Given Sweden’s reputation as a frontrunner in sustainable development, its problems of implementing its own environmental strategy is somewhat surprising. In any attempt to mitigate climate change, involving the local level will be absolutely crucial – both in Swedish efforts to achieve its climate policy, and to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions globally. Swedish municipalities are central im

Arbetstagarskyddet vid verksamhetsöverlåtelser regleras inom Europeiska unionen (EU) av Rådets direktiv 2001/23/EG av den 12 mars 2001 om till-närmning av medlemsstaternas lagstiftning om skydd för arbetstagares rättig-heter vid överlåtelse av företag, verksamheter eller delar av företag eller verk-samheter (överlåtelsedirektivet). I svensk rätt har reglerna implementerats ge-nom ändringar i lag (The protection of employees in the case of business transfers is regulated within the European Union (EU) by Council Directive 2001/23/EC of 12 March 2001 on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to the safeguarding of employees’ rights in the event of the transfer of under-takings, businesses or parts of undertakings or businesses (Transfer of Un-dertakings directive). In Sw

The number of degrees of freedom is a crucial parameter in many electromagnetic problems. In for example modern communication systems spatial diversity is often employed through multiple beams to enhance capacity and reliability. However, while the degrees of freedom can be computed, their connection to physical quantities is not as easily understood. To address this issue, this paper proposes a s

Aims. We study the dynamics and growth of dust particles in circumstellar disks of different masses that are prone to gravitational instability during the critical first Myr of their evolution. Methods. We solved the hydrodynamics equations for a self-gravitating and viscous circumstellar disk in a thin-disk limit using the FEOSAD numerical hydrodynamics code. The dust component is made up of two

Sweden was unique in early modern Europe, in that its parliament included a peasant farmer estate. It is commonplace in Swedish and international research to consider the peasant farmer politicians as the guarantee of a liberal and egalitarian path of development. On the other hand, in the Swedish-language political history literature, the peasant politicians are often seen as rather narrow-minded

Several studies have reported that spontaneous eye movements occur when visuospatial information is recalled from memory. Such gazes closely reflect the content and spatial relations from the original scene layout (e.g., Johansson et al., 2012). However, when someone has originally read a scene description, the memory of the physical layout of the text itself might compete with the memory of the s

People with psychiatric disabilities need to be able to express their views about their support, for example, the provision of meaningful activity in supported accommodation. Brief scales may be necessary to avoid strain and discomfort for this group. The aim was to develop a brief version of Perceived Meaning in Activity—Housing (PMA-H) an

Background: Hyperuricemia (HU) is in the causal pathway for developing clinical gout. There are few population-based assessments of the absolute and relative risk of clinically diagnosed incident gout in subjects with HU. We aimed to explore the long-term risk of developing incident gout among asymptomatic adults with different levels of serum urate (SU). Methods: Malmö Preventive Project was a po

Wireless communication is evolving rapidly with ever more connected devicesand significantly increasing data rates. Since the invention of the smartphoneand the mass introduction of mobile apps, users demand more andmore traffic to stream music, watch high-definition video or to simply browsethe internet. This tremendous growth is more pronounced by the introductionof the Internet of Things (IoT)

The European REACH legislation accepts the use of non-testing methods, such as QSARs, to inform chemical risk assessment. In this paper, we aim to initiate a discussion on the characterization of predictive uncertainty from QSAR regressions. For the purpose of decision making, we discuss applications from the perspective of applying QSARs to support probabilistic risk assessment. Predictive uncert
