Relationer med nära vuxna är viktiga för barns utveckling. Forskning om känslomässig trygghet, så kallad ”anknytning”, mellan barn och förälder har visat att hur föräldrar bemöter barnets behov av tröst och närhet inverkar på barnets sätt att hantera känslomässig stress och navigera sociala relationer. Även andra omsorgspersoner i ett barns vardagsliv kan bli anknytningsfigurer för barnet, såsom pCurrent child developmental research encourages a more systemic understanding of attachment-related relationship-building. As many young children spend a substantial part of their daily life in professional childcare, e.g., “preschool”, interactions with teachers at preschool are of particular interest in this respect. In bridging the developmentally important contexts of home and preschool for th

AbstractModern radiotherapy aims to treat the decease while minimizing the radiation dose to the adjacent normal tissue, to minimize acute and late effects of the treatment. The foremost technological approaches have been intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) and intensity modulated proton therapy (IMPT) in combination with image guided radiotherapy (IGRT). IMRT and IMPT is characterized by a moModern radiotherapy aims to treat the decease while minimizing the radiation dose to the adjacent normal tissue, to minimize acute and late effects of the treatment.

Type 2 diabetes is characterized by hyperglycemia due to insulin resistance in the target tissue and insufficient insulin secretion from the beta cells. Finding new mechanisms and pathways involved in the regulation of insulin secretion from the pancreatic beta cells is of great importance. Our group has earlier found, miRNA-212 and miRNA-132 to be upregulated in the non-obese type 2 diabetic GK r

Lactobacillus is a heterogeneous bacterial genus comprising at present 91 species. The high species number often makes classification and identification difficult, especially as the taxonomy to a high degree has been based on phenotypical traits. Members of the genus are of commercial importance, involved in a range of industrial products and applied as probiotics, “live microorganisms which when

BACKGROUND: The high prevalence of obesity in children and adolescents emphasizes the necessity to develop evidence-based treatment programs that are useful in a clinical setting. AIMS: The overall aim of the thesis was to develop and evaluate multidisciplinary approaches for management of children and adolescents with obesity. The focus was on generalizability of the treatment in a clinical setti

STUDY QUESTION: What are the diagnostic benefits of using ultrasound in patients with a clinical suspicion of acute salpingitis and signs of pelvic inflammatory disease (PID)? SUMMARY ANSWER: In patients with a clinical suspicion of acute salpingitis, the absence of bilateral adnexal masses at ultrasound decreases the odds of mild-to-severe acute salpingitis about five times, while the presence of

Idag används årligen över 2 miljoner ton bekämpningsmedel (BM) i världen. Avdessa står Sverige för drygt 9000 ton, eller knappt en halv procent. Den häravhandlingen handlar om att ta fram metoder för att bestämma rester av vissabekämpningsmedel i kroppsvätskor (urin) hos människor och sedan användametoderna för att mäta exponering för bekämpningsmedlen i en befolkningsgrupp. Arbetet är en del av fAlmost every human is exposed to pesticides, in work environments, by domestic use and via diet, drinking water and personal products. Current research expresses concern that low dose exposure over time can lead to adverse health effects. It is therefore important to biomonitor exposure to pesticides in different groups, especially vulnerable groups such as pregnant women. However, there is a gene

Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a complex polygenic disease influenced by both environmental and genetic factors resulting in impaired insulin release from pancreatic beta cells and insulin resistance in target tissues. The incidence of T2D is escalating and it is projected that over 640 million people will be affected by 2040. Therefore, it is imperative to understand molecular processes that cause T2D

In recent years, small businesses have received much attention from policy makers and researchers, in that these businesses are considered important for economic growth and job creation. At the same time small businesses are assumed to face major problems in securing long-term external finance, which is regarded as restraining their development and growth. Small business managers are assumed to us

By the mid-19th century, syphilis had been established for several hundred years as a disease associated with immorality, from which the poor in particular suffered. Although hospitals for the treatment of venereal diseases existed in most European countries, there would be no cure for another hundred years, and physicians battled unsuccessfully against disfigurement and death. The lock hospital i

The focus of this thesis is to perform a comparative study between two noninvasive optical techniques: Photon Time-of-flight Spectroscopy (pTOFS) and a Continuous-wave NIRS system for measuring muscle tissue oxygen saturation. INVOS 5100C (Manufactured in 2011, Serial Number 11-10269, Produced by Somanetics Troy, MI 48084 USA) is such a CW-NIRS system that provides tissue oxygenation using continu

Popular science summary: The Battle Against Cancer Daily, people are diagnosed with cancer, a disease that brings suffering and despair. I'm sure you have heard about chemotherapy and radiation as a way of trying to treat cancer, but it is equally important to find an effective method to quickly and reliably detect a tumor at an early stage, before it is too late. In my master's thesis,

Om inte statusen på Sveriges byggnadsbestånd förbättras kommer miljömålet ”God bebyggd miljö” inte kunna uppfyllas. Då miljömålet beaktar många aspekter måste ett holistiskt synsätt gälla vid genomförandet av åtgärder i byggnadsbeståndet. För att kunna göra detta måste en dialog föras kring viktiga aspekter på byggnadens samtliga områden mellan inblandade parter. Om en parameter ändras riskerar de

Att minska energiförbrukningens klimatpåverkan handlar om att göra energieffektiviseringar och att ersätta fossil energi med icke-fossil. Olika icke-fossila energilösningar ger olika klimatpåverkan sett ur ett livscykelperspektiv, och därför är valet av icke-fossila energilösningar av betydelse för klimatet. Biogas kan användas både för värme- och elproduktion samt som drivmedel. Detta examensarbeReducing climate impact from energy consumption is a matter of improving energy efficiency and replacing fossil energy with non-fossil. Different non-fossil energy alternatives cause different climate impact in a life-cycle perspective and, therefore, the choices between non-fossil energy alternatives have an impact on the climate performance. Biogas can be used for both heat- and electricity prod

Syftet med denna uppsats är att analysera vissa skattefria och vissa skattepliktiga förmåner som utgått inom ramen för en näringsverksamhet. Undersökningen omfattar både förmåner i fåmansaktiebolag och i enskild näringsverksamhet. En frågeställning behandlar om de aktuella förmånerna beskattas likadant inom de två företagsformerna, och i förlängningen om förmånsbeskattningssystemet är neutralt utfThe purpose of this paper is to analyse certain non-taxable and certain taxable benefits provided within the confines of a business. The survey examines fringe benefits both within close companies and sole economic activities. One question deals with whether the benefits at hand are taxed equally in the two forms of enterprise, and by extension if neutrality prevails within the tax system of fring

Kontraheringsplikt innebär en skyldighet att ingå avtal och utgör därmed ett undantag från principen om avtalsfrihet. En kontraheringsplikt finns i försäkringsavtalslagen och innebär en skyldighet för försäkringsbolag att ingå avtal med personer som vill teckna konsument- eller personförsäkring, såvida det inte finns särskilda skäl för avslag. I utredningen Ds 2005:42 fastställdes att en sådan konA duty to contract involves an obligation to enter into an agreement, and there-fore constitutes an exception from the principle of contractual freedom. A duty to contract exists in the Insurance Contracts Act and stipulates an obligation for insurance companies to enter into an agreement with an individual who wants to acquire a consumer- or personal insurance, unless there are special reasons pr

Upphovsrätter ger upphov till både ekonomiska och ideella rättigheter. Den ideella rätten bygger på en tanke om att upphovsmän har ett starkt personligt intresse och en koppling till sina verk. Samma tanke ligger bakom det överlåtelseförbud som finns i 28 § lag (1960:729) om upphovsrätt till litterära och konstnärliga verk (URL). Förbudet gör det otillåtet för en förvärvare av en upphovsrätt att öCopyright is composed of two rights, the economic and moral rights. The moral rights are built on the thoughts that the creator of the copyright has a strong personal interest and a connection to its creation. It is the same thoughts that are behind the transfer prohibition in 28 § lag (1960:729) om upphovsrätt till litterära och konstnärliga verk (URL). The prohibition makes it illicit for the as
