Pediatric Intensive Care from the Perspective of Parents: Experiences and Satisfaction with Person- and Family-Centered Care

The overall aim of this thesis was to investigate parents’ experiences and satisfaction with family-centered care (FCC)when their child was cared for at a pediatric intensive care unit (PICU). To obtain a deeper understanding of parents’experiences and satisfaction, two qualitative studies were conducted (Papers I and III). For Paper I, 10 individualinterviews were conducted two years after their

Restricted dispersal in a long-distance migrant bird with patchy distribution, the great reed warbler

In patchily distributed species dispersal connects local populations into metapopulations. Reliable quantifications of dispersal are therefore crucial to understanding the population dynamics and genetic structure of such metapopulation systems. The great reed warbler (Acrocephalus arundinaceus) inhabits eutrophic lakes and has a patchy breeding distribution. In this study we investigated the disp

Asthma incidence in children growing up close to traffic: a registry-based birth cohort

Background: Recent reviews conclude an association between traffic-related pollution and incidence of asthma in children, but not all studies agree. Studies have almost exclusively relied on parental-reported symptoms or parental-reported diagnoses of asthma and wheeze. Our aim was to investigate if traffic exposure is associated with higher incidence of early onset asthma, using registry-based ou

Gestational diabetes mellitus is associated with TCF7L2 gene polymorphisms independent of HLA-DQB1*0602 genotypes and islet cell autoantibodies.

Aims: To test whether the TCF7L2 gene was associated with gestational diabetes, whether the association between TCF7L2 and gestational diabetes was independent of HLA-DQB1*0602 and islet cell autoantibodies, as well as maternal age, number of pregnancies, family history of diabetes and the HLA-DQB1 genotypes, and to test whether the distribution of HLA-DQB1 alleles was affected by country of birth
