The thesis examines the situation of Third Country Nationals who have familial links to a ‘returning’ Community citizen. The thesis analyses Danish Immigration law, Community free movement provisions, and the case law of the Court suggesting that the application of National law is ‘dying’ due to the Court’s interpretation of ‘abuse’ and gradual elimination of the ‘wholly internal situations’. The
We investigated several aspects of the role of physical activity in colon and rectal cancer etiology that remain unclear in the European Prospective Investigation into Nutrition and Cancer. This cohort of 413,044 men and women had 1,094 cases of colon and 599 cases of rectal cancer diagnosed during an average of 6.4 years of follow-up. We analyzed baseline data on occupational, household, and recr
Region Skåne har slagit samman Skånes två största sjukhus vilket har bemötts på många olika sätt, både positiva och negativa. Vi anser att sjukvården i Skåne är av stort allmänintresse och har därför valt att granska hur integrationen av journalsystemen utförts vid sammanslagningen, detta genom projektet SkåneGemensamt Melior. Journalsystemens kompatibilitet är starkt kopplat till patientsäkerhete
In 1989, the General Assembly of the United Nations adopted the Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC). The convention, whose purpose is to ensure and protect children’s rights globally, was later ratified by Sweden 1990. Thereby, the country committed itself to legally follow the articles of the convention. By conducting a descriptive case study analysis of the CRC, this text aims to invest
Coming from a predominantly Catholic country, Lithuanian immigrants in Scandinavia find themselves in a contrasting Protestant context of the host societies. This ethnographic study of diasporic Lithuanian communities and their transnational Catholic practices aims to understand what motivates immigrant Lithuanians to join the church in Sweden or Norway and whether this foreign environment influen
I denna teoriprövande fallstudie undersöks utvecklingen efter arabiska våren i Syrien och huruvida Joel S. Migdals teori om formativa moment kan ges förklaringskraft i en jämförelse mellan två områden. Genom en processpårning analyseras fyra förhållandens påverkan på den syriska statens möjlighet till social kontroll i Homs och Raqqa för att utreda varför det varit svårare för den syriska staten a

Popular Abstract in Swedish Streptococcus pyogenes Människan är ständigt koloniserad av en mängd olika mikroorganismer. De flesta bakterier är ofarliga och en del av dem är faktiskt nödvändiga för oss, t.ex. de tarmbakterier som hjälper oss att producera vitaminer. Grupp A streptokocker (GAS) eller Streptococcus pyogenes, är en av de vanligaste sjukdomsframkallande bakterierna hos människan. De kaWe have found that a set of group A streptococcal strains, primarily associated with skin infections, express surface-associated M proteins that bind plasminogen and plasmin with high affinity. The binding is mediated by a common 13 amino acid internal repeated sequence located in the NH2-terminal surface-exposed portion of these M proteins. It could be demonstrated that plasminogen, absorbed by t

The consumption of meat and other foods of animal origin is a risk factor for several types of cancer, but the results for lymphomas are inconclusive. Therefore, we examined these associations among 411,097 participants of the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition. During a median follow-up of 8.5 years, 1,334 lymphomas (1,267 non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) and 67 Hodgkin lympho
Intervention studies have shown that high-intensity training programs with duration of 1-3 years can influence bone mass in post-menopausal women. We wanted to investigate whether moderate physical activity could be associated with reduced post-menopausal bone loss also in the long-term perspective. We evaluated changes in bone mass and bone structure by repeated single-photon absorptiometry measu
This article is a follow-up of Alvesson and Karreman (2011a), which was in itself a follow-up of Alvesson and Karreman (2000), and a response to a critique of the former by Hardy and Grant (2012). The critique is addressed directly and the logic behind it investigated critically. The article also addresses wider concerns regarding the politics of research and publishing and the conditions of criti
Many case-control studies have suggested that higher consumption of fruit and vegetables is associated with a lower risk or pancreatic cancer, whereas cohort studies do not support such an association. We examined the associations of the consumption of. fruits and vegetables and their main subgroups with pancreatic cancer risk within the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition
Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most widespread type of cancer, as well as the most frequent leukemia in children. Malignant ALL cells originate from normal T lymphocytes or B cells that are blocked at immature stages of differentiation. Since T cell lineage derived ALL in children is associated with various unfavorable features, it is no surprise that childhood T lineage ALL have been r
