Background. Several population-based studies have shown that self-perceived health is a powerful predictor of health outcomes. The extent to which self-perceived health is associated with personality characteristics is, however, largely unknown. We aimed to study the relationship between self-perceived health and personality among adults in the community. Method. Data were drawn from the Midlife D

Introduction of a conjugated vaccine against encapsulated Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib) has led to a dramatic reduction of invasive Hib disease. However, an increasing incidence of invasive disease by H. influenzae non-type b has recently been reported. Non-type b strains have been suggested to be opportunists in an invasive context, but information on clinical consequences and related medic

The basis for this has not been fully clarified.Objective:To investigate in detail the cause of death in a large cohort of patients with hypopituitarism subjected to long-term follow-up.Design and Methods:All-cause and cause-specific mortality in 1286 Swedish patients with hypopituitarism prospectively monitored i

Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingen utgår från förhållandet att symtom på psykisk ohälsa har tenderat att öka över tid i exempelvis de undersökningar som görs regelbundet av hälsorisker och ohälsa i form av olika så kallade folkhälsoenkäter och liknande undersökningar av hälsoläget i den svenska befolkningen. Det finns en diskussion bland forskare kring vad denna tendens står för, exempelvis Mental disorders, especially depression, have been increasingly described as a growing burden to global public health. Critics argue, however, that the use of mental health surveys, underlying these descriptions, tends to overestimate the prevalence of mental disorders by not distinguishing everyday experiences of distress from pathological conditions. This medicalization of public health is belie

I svensk rätt utgörs den yttersta gränsen för ansvar av ett krav på tillräcklig medvetenhet. I denna uppsats utforskas den historiska och teoretiska bakgrunden till begreppet. Här presenteras det medvetenhetsbegrepp som framträder i doktrin och rättspraxis. Här förs också en diskussion om hur väl medvetenhetsbegreppet överensstämmer med de allmänna rättsliga principer som kräver förutsägbarhet, liIn Swedish law, legal liability is limited by a requirement of sufficient awareness (medvetenhet). The subject of this essay is to explore the theoretical and historical background of this legal concept. This is done by a presentation of how the legal term awareness is described in legal literature and case law. The essay also includes a discussion on to what extent the concept of awareness compli

Signs of Flesh: Institution and Body in Accounts of Paranoia (Notes on Schreber and Fabian) As the call for paper to this conference aptly states, phenomenology holds that "[c]onsciousness [is] dependent on a body and a world, which bestow it with existence and meaning." My take on this phenomenologist axiom would be to suggest a complementary thesis, something like: "The world (understood as the

Introduktion: Medicinsk abort är den vanligaste metoden för abort världen över. Metoden har haft stor betydelse för kvinnohälsan relaterat till dess icke-invasiva tillvägagångssätt, vilket medför minskad risk för komplikationer. Den vanligast rapporterade bieffekten är blödning och buksmärta. Syfte: Belysa kvinnors erfarenheter av smärta och smärtlindring vid medicinsk abort. Metod: En litteraturs

För att en person ska kunna dömas för ett brott krävs det att denna har handlat med uppsåt eller i vissa fall oaktsamhet. För att uppsåt ska föreligga ska handlingen ha varit medveten och det ska finnas ett kausalsamband mellan denna och dess följd. Uppsåtsbegreppet är indelat i tre grader: avsiktsuppsåt, insiktsuppsåt och likgiltighetsuppsåt och de är graderade i den ordning de räknades upp med dResearchers who studied alcohol dependence in humans have come to the conclusion that alcoholism affects the brain's neurotransmitters, which means that the brain can begin to function differently about exposing the large amounts of alcohol over a long period of time. An addiction to alcohol is hard to recover from, with many severe withdrawal symptoms as a result. In the current legal situati

My master degree project started with an open brief, setting out to explore new possibilities within healthcare in relation to the benefits of IoT. By looking at medical trends, cutting edge diagnostic technologies, hypothesis about the future and by interviewing patients and medical personnel a couple of interesting project directions emerged. A decision was made to focus on prevention and one to

Denna uppsats undersöker samspelet mellan internationell humanitär rätt, internationella mänskliga rättigheter och internationell straffrätt med sexuellt våld mot män inom väpnade konflikter. Inom denna utforskning märktes det att en partisk syn fanns som gynnade kvinnliga offer av sexuellt våld genom bättre skydd och möjligheter till upprättelse. Medicinska tidskrifter, rapporterar från icke-statThis thesis explores the seldom-researched interaction of sexual violence against men in armed conflict within the fields of international humanitarian law, international human rights law, and international criminal law. Through the study of these three fields of law it was found that a bias exists towards female victims of sexual violence as more protection and forums for redress is afforded thes
