Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a consequence of obesity and defined as cluster of at least three out of five criteria covering insulin resistance/glucose intolerance, abdominal obesity, hypertension, low HDL-c and elevated TG levels. Imbalance between energy intake and expenditure is known to alter normal physiological function in many aspects, and leads to obesity, which in the long run may turn in

Mental health problems affect the patients and their families, who may also need therapeutic interventions. Mindfulness interventions have shown beneficial health effects for clinical and healthy populations. A web-based mindfulness intervention was tailored to address families' needs of support and tested in a pilot intervention study. The aim of this study was to explore the participants' experi

Taking as its point of departure an article entitled "Tagging Banksy: using geographic profiling to investigate a modern art mystery" which was published in Journal of Spatial Science in March 2016, the present keynote paper aims to open up a discussion about ethical research practice within the street art world and the implications for street art researchers when such practice is violated.

Översatt sammanfattning:Livsmedelsproduktion och konsumtion bidrar i hög grad till utsläppen av växthusgaser. Eftersom det råder bred enighet om att en övergång till hållbara kostvanor och hållbara livsmedelssystem är nödvändig är en strategi att fokusera på nya livsmedel, såsom tidigare outnyttjade resurser, och att integrera dessa i den vardagliga kosten.Marina makroalger (tång), som inte kräverFood production and consumption are significant contributors to greenhouse gas emissions. As a transition to sustainable diets and sustainable food systems is widely agreed upon, one strategy is to focus on novel foods, such as previously unused resources, and their integration into everyday diets.Marine macroalgae (seaweed), which require no freshwater, agricultural land, or fertilizers, are posi

Popular Abstract in Swedish Syftet med denna avhandling är att studera den sydhalländska stickningsindustrins framväxt, utveckling och organisation under tidigmodern tid. Denna protoindustriella verksamhet bedrevs i godsbygd i huvudsak på förlagsbasis. Tidigt spelade Wallens gods i Våxtorps socken en aktiv roll i verksamheten. Under 1700-talets senare hälft organiserades stickningsindustrin av förThe aim of this dissertation has been to examine the growth, development, and organisation of the knitting industry in southern Halland during early modern times. This proto-industrial enterprise was conducted primarily via a putting-out system in the goods districts. Wallen's estate in Våxtorp parish played an active role in the enterprise already from an early stage. During the latter half of th

China's transition from planned to market economy is at present one of the topics most discussed among researchers. According to almost any version of mainstream property rights theory, the rapid privatization or what has been described as the "East European model" basically represents the correct approach to transformation, while the gradual transition, or the "Chinese model", should represent a

A primary purpose of traditional systems analysis is seen as ‘capture’ or ‘elicitation’ of user requirements, in order to produce specifications as a basis for information systems design. Such a view presupposes that user requirements are pre-existing and clear, and that the particular ‘users’ concerned know what they are, and can therefore articulate them. We would argue that none of these assump

Popular Abstract in Swedish Forskningspolitiken har i allt högre utsträckning kommit att kopplas till närings- och innovationspolitiken. Ett exempel är den strategiska forskningspolitik som växte fram i början av 1990-talet, där ett antal forskningsstiftelser med nya mål och modeller för finansiering tillkom. I denna studie diskuteras implikationerna av dessa förvaltnings- och forskningspolitiska Research policy is increasingly linked to social needs and to some extent integrated with industrial and innovation policy. The strategic research policy that emerged in Sweden in the early 1990's resulted in the establishment of a new kind of research funding both in form and direction: strategic research foundations. The purpose of one of these foundations, the Knowledge Foundation (Stiftelsen f

The purpose of the paper is to highlight the influence of expectations of professionals towards a greater role in decision-taking at all levels. This includes an expectation of collaboration in the development of organizational information systems. To this end we drew upon Claudio Ciborra's Mood, represented by his discussion of bricolage, hacking and improvisation and their philosophical foundati
