Cancerpatienters upplevelser i samband med PET/CT undersökningar

Positronemissionstomografi/datortomografi (PET/CT) är en nukleärmedicins undersökning. Det är en kraftfull metod som används för att för att kartlägga tumörutbredning, bestämma lämplig behandling, utvärdera given cancerbehandling och att upptäcka återfall av tumörsjukdom. Denna undersökning ger möjligheter till förbättringar av vården för cancersjuka patienter. Syfte med litteraturstudie är att un

Riskerar barn att fara illa? - Om domstolens riskbedömning i mål om vårdnad, boende och umgänge

Samhället har ett intresse av att skydda barn från att komma till skada när de växer upp under farliga förhållanden. Barns exponering för våld och övergrepp kan få allvarliga konsekvenser för barnets hälsa och utveckling. Bestämmelserna som reglerar vårdnad, boende och umgänge finns i 6 kap. föräldrabalken (1949:381). Barnets bästa ska vara avgörande vid alla beslut som rör barn. Vid domstolens Society has an interest in protecting children from harm when they grow up under dangerous conditions. Children’s exposure to violence and abuse can have serious consequences for the child’s health and development.

Sustainability in higher education : learning for a change

There have been many calls for higher education to facilitate a transition towards sustainability, in particular, with a social change dimension. Literature exists on the different learning outcomes and competencies expected of students in this process, but not much is written about learning approaches used within curriculums that can enable social change. This thesis aims to address this issue by

An STM-based study of Bi deposition on InAs(110)

Under andra hälften av 1900-talet applicerades kunskapen av halvledare i form av bland annat transistorer, komponenter i radioapparater, och LED-lampor. Sedan dess har halvledare blivit desto mindre och desto kraftfullare. Persondatorn Apple II, som introducerades 1977 av Steve Wozniak och Steve Jobs, innehöll en processor med cirka 3000 transistorer. Idag rymmer de flesta speldatorer grafikkort sIII-V semiconductor compounds containing Bi, such as InBi, have recently attracted much attention due to predictions of band inversion and topological insulators. The predictions showed that films of InBi could be applicable in quantum computers and at room temperature. The common approach of realizing such a structure, by growing InAsBi films, has not been successful, as the Bi content has been f

”En väldigt fluffig fråga” - En fallstudie om hur en större stad arbetar med jämställdhet och trygghet i samhällsplaneringen

Samhällsplanerare måste ta hänsyn till ett flertal aspekter och många mål- och styrdokument i sitt arbete med att utveckla och planera kommunen. En viktig aspekt är jämställdhetsaspekten som åter blivit aktuell. Det är dock inte helt klart hur planerare ska tänka för att främja jämställdhet i samhällsplaneringen. I form av en fallstudie där fyra samtalsintervjuer gjordes syftar denna uppsats till

Under the Xi administration, China’s approach to diplomacy has focussed on the quest of becoming a major global power while, or rather through, upholding its traditional values. This paper seeks to analyse how the current dis

Kvinnors upplevelser av oro och ångest i samband med mammografiska hälsokontroller

Bakgrund: I Sverige erbjuds kvinnor mellan åldrarna 40-74 att vartannat år delta i mammografiska hälsokontroller. Deltagandet kan bidra till tidig upptäckt av bröstcancer. Ökad kunskap och förståelse om kvinnors upplevelser i samband med mammografiska hälsokontroller kan bidra till utveckling av strategier för att förebygga negativa upplevelser. Syfte: Att belysa kvinnors upplevelser av ångest och

The Ebb of the Pink Tide and a Turn to the Right in Latin America

The left-wing governments that possessed the power of the executive in Latin America for almost two decades are now under duress. The event that has posed the initial threat to the “reign” of the Pink Tide is believed to be the 2015 election of Mauricio Macri in Argentina. This event triggered a chain reaction of conservative changes in government and a backlash against left-leaning dominance. Hav

Of Algorithms and Autocrats: A Case Study of Chinese Computational Propaganda Exploitation for Soft Power During Covid-19 Crisis

This study explores the Chinese computational propaganda exploitation during the Covid-19 crisis. By demonstrating the intricacies of this case of computational propaganda utilization, this research attempts to answer an even larger question: How do authoritarian countries incorporate computational propaganda to their soft power strategies. To that end, first; a theoretical bridge was formed betwe

Den outtalade och allvarliga faran

In association with the refugee crisis in 2015, more people sought asylum in Sweden than ever before. The Swedish government initially pursued a relatively welcoming asylum policy with open borders and with a vision of maintaining the right to asylum. This moral attitude towards refugees would subsequently take a turn. On December 9 in 2015, the Bill "Specific measures during serious danger t

Självbestämmande, urfolkskvinnor och tillgång till rättvisa- en fallstudie i Amazonas regnskog

De 14 olika urfolken i Ecuador har landrättigheter och rätt till kollektivt självbestämmande. Inom ramen för detta har urfolk också rätt till att utöva urfolksrättiva.

Vetenskapliga metoder och praktiska tillvägagångssätt för beroendeanalyser inom samhällsviktiga verksamheter

För samhällsviktiga verksamheter som drivs av offentliga aktörer finns lagkrav på att utföra risk- och sårbarhetsanalyser, vilka ska innehålla beroendeanalyser. Dock finns det en brist på vägledning gällande utförande av dessa analyser. Ett av de starkaste beroenden som finns i samhället idag är elberoendet. Därför finns ett intresse för att undersöka hur elberoendet analyseras i praktiken inom saIn Sweden, risk- and vulnerability assessments, including dependency analyses, are required by law for public actors who are of vital societal functions or critical infrastructure. However, there is a lack of guidance regarding how to perform this kind of analysis. Electrical power is one of the strongest dependencies of our society today. Thus, it is interesting to examine how the dependency of e

The project started with the question “why wouldn’t a disabled or old person want it to look nice at home?” Many assistive products on the market are designed in a way that doesn’t fit the interior trends, which is an issue for several reasons. By the aesthetics assistive products possess, the users get labeled as people who are sick and abnormal. The brief was then created and the goal was to des
