BACKGROUND: An increasing incidence of penicillin-resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae (PRP) was detected in Malmo in 1994. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate clonality and factors facilitating the spread of PRP among children in day-care centers (DCCs). METHODS: We used phenotypic and DNA-fingerprinting methods in conjunction with epidemiologic data from the South Swedish Pneumococcal Intervention Project's in

Traditional measures for improved traffic safety need to be complemented by modern technologies in the struggle to reduce the consequences of traffic accidents all over the world. This thesis introduces the Loyal Speed Adaptation (LSA) function based on recent developments in the area of Intelligent Transport Sys-tems to support the vehicle drivers in not using inappropriate or excessive speeds, w

BACKGROUND: Our recently reported finding of rapid bi-exponential elimination of free prostate-specific antigen (PSA) after radical retropubic prostatectomy in patients with moderately elevated PSA levels, which contrasted a very slow, linear elimination of PSA complexed to alpha-1-antichymotrypsin (ACT), prompted us to study whether these elimination rates were applicable for patients selected fo

Popular Abstract in Swedish Vid tillagning av kött, och framför allt stekning och grillning, bildas mutagena ämnen i stekskorpan. Dessa ämnen benämns heterocykliska aminer. Flera epidemiologiska studier har visat ett samband mellan uppkomsten av cancer och intaget av heterocykliska aminer, medan några studier inte finner något samband. Ämnena har också visat kunna utveckla tumörer och cancer i djuCommonly cooked meat dishes contain heterocyclic amines (HAs) at ng/g levels. HAs are animal carcinogens, form DNA adducts in human tissues, and have been associated with increased risk of cancer in epidemiological studies, and it is thus recommended that human intake be decreased. The aim of this investigation was to find ways of modifying cooking practices to reduce the formation of HAs. Various

Virtual Reality and advanced, interactive simulators illustrate the potentials of modern technology for improving the ecological validity of learning experiments. Yet much more preliminary work is needed to appreciate how these growingly complex means can be utilized to promote high-order emotional and motivational constructs of the user, such as self-efficacy. Drawing from the frameworks of serio

Biodiversity was during the 1990s perceived as 'green gold'. With the emergence of the biotechnology industry, biodiversity prospecting, or bioprospecting, was perceived to provide opportunities to gain benefits for several purposes. Benefits would attribute towards conservation, development of source countries, new medicines, profits for the industry and welfare to local providers of biog

Att göra en studie om hur detaljhandelsföretag tar tillvara på och hanterar Big Data för att stärka sina kundrelationer samt hur de kan förbättras. Vi har utfört en kvalitativ fallstudie i form av djupintervjuer samt en egen undersökning. Djupintervjuerna har haft en semistrukturerad uppbyggnad. Den egna undersökningen har en komparativ karaktär där insamlingen av data gällande kunder, har jämförA study about how retail companies collect and manage Big Data in order to strengthen and develop their customer relationship. The study is one of qualitative character, which is built upon several in-depth interviews as well as a survey performed by the authors. The in-depth interviews are semi-structured. The survey is of comparative nature where the gathering of customer-driven-data is compar

Eventuella beteendemässiga konsekvenser av pornografianvändande har undersökts flitigt under de senaste decennierna. Forskningen har dock inte inkorporerat kontextuella aspekter av pornografianvändande eller intresserat sig för möjliga samband med användarnas egen sexualitet. Denna studies första syfte var att undersöka pornografianvändande i en icke-klinisk population av 16- till 30-åringar i SveAn increasing body of research has accumulated over last decades investigating the possible behavioral outcomes and correlates of pornography use. However, research has not incorporated contextual aspects of pornography use or it’s relation with users’ own sexuality. The first aim of this study was to investigate several aspects of pornography use in a non clinical population of 16-30 year olds’ i

Despite increasing focus on the role of fathers in the face of changing societal norms, we still do not understand men’s transition to fatherhood and how it may be related to his and other family members’ well-being. Given evidence of an association between psychological parameters of this transition and postnatal depressive symptoms, we explored longitudinal paths between expectant fathers’ paren

Oavsett vad en förälder kan ha förordnat genom testamente har bröstarvingar enligt nuvarande arvsreglering alltid rätt till hälften av kvarlåtenskapen, den så kallade laglottsrätten. Uppsatsens syfte är att undersöka vilka intressen som har motiverat laglottsinstitutets utformning i Sverige, från instiftandet fram till nuvarande reglering, samt vilka argument som framförts för och emot dess bevaraAccording to the present law of succession, the direct heirs of a deceased person have the right to retain half of the property in heritage, the so-called statutory share of inheritance, regardless of what a parent has assigned by will. The purpose of this essay is to examine the interests that legitimate the statutory share of inheritance in Sweden, from its establishment to present regulation, a

With the rapid advancement of electromobility sector, the power density and heat generation of electronic chips is significantly rising. Due to its higher load and lower thermal mass, electronics chips in BEV inverters, such as MOSFETs, are increasingly susceptible to rapid temperature rises. Through the utilization of latent heat absorption, Phase Change Material (PCM) offers a promising passive

Hybrid solutions that combine multiple renewable energy sources, such as solar power and hydro power, are gaining popularity as a means of meeting the growing energy demands while minimising environmental impacts, but also as an opportunity of connecting solar power plants to the grid in areas where this might not be possible unless large investments are made. This master thesis aims to evaluate t
