Introduction: Propolis is a sticky substance produced by honeybees from plant resins collected from locally growing vegetation. Its chemical composition varies depending on the plant species visited by the bees. Contact dermatitis is commonly reported following exposure to cosmetics containing propolis or following the intake of food supplements. Objectives: To investigate the prevalence of contac

Urine-metanephrines are used in the screening for pheochromocytomas in patients with adrenal incidentalomas, but their potential as markers for mortality in patients with adrenal adenomas has not been studied. A retrospective cohort study was designed to investigate if urine-metanephrines were associated with mortality in patients with adrenal adenomas. Participants where consecutively included be

Individual natural hazards may be combined in different ways, leading to cascading or co-occurring effects, turning them into compound hazards. However, assessment of individual as well as compound hazards is often hampered by short or incomplete observational records of actual hazards, and records of various hazards that do not easily combine. In this study we propose an alternative way to detect

En vetenskaplig text i vilken jag på engelska och för en internationell läsarkrets presenterar de centrala forskningsresultaten och slutsatserna från min avhandling.

17 kap. 3 § rättegångsbalken (RB) omgärdas av omfattande begrepps- och teoribildning. Som exempel har det skrivit tre svenska avhandlingar som har bestämmelsen som huvudtema. När det kommer skiljeförfaranden enligt lagen (1999:116) om skiljeförfarande (LSF) är det en omdebatterad fråga i vad mån tvistemålsprocessens begrepps- och teoribildning bör tillämpas analogt. LSF har ingen uttrycklig bestäm

The use of gender-inclusive pronouns aims to make language more inclusive and to reduce biases and prejudices based on gender. Previous research shows that men tend to resist gender-inclusive pronouns more strongly than other individuals. The aim of the current study is to contribute to the understanding of this stronger resistance among men. We hypothesize that men are more negative toward gender

Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: Kadmium är en tungmetall som liksom andra tungmetaller finns naturligt i miljön. Genom att människan finner användning för kadmium och använder sig av produkter som har kadmium som en förorening i sig kan större mängder ansamlas på ett ställe än vad som är naturligt. Kadmium kan man finna i bilar, båtar och andra maskiners metalldelar men också i avgaserna som sModelling of pollutants is commonly used in research and at departments working with environmental issues. The need to use large amounts of data when modelling creates the opportunity for more generalised models with lower data demands. Aggregating functions into coarser elements is a sort of generalisation of actual features in nature. A development of a method and a modelling tool called “Kadmiu
