Individual energy turnover rates can vary remarkably, even within a species. In this thesis I study the causes and consequences of this pronounced variation and show that individual energy turnover rates can be affected by a large number of factors. I here show that both the early conditions during the incubation period and prenatal levels of the hormone testosterone can have consequences on indiv
Background The aim of this review article is to examine the evidence in the literature with regard to the safety of exercise in pregnancy. Material and Methods A literature search revealed fourteen randomised controlled trials which were systematically reviewed. The outcome measures looked at were both short and long term consequences of training in healthy pregnant women. Results The methodo
Background: Infants and toddlers with disabilities follows the same developmental paths as typically developing children, but build individual patterns of achievements in their own pace. Aim: To illustrate development in infants who got opportunities to experience locomotion before the age when they developed the physical abilities to move by rolling, crawling, creeping or walking. Method: Re-anal
I svensk straffrätt är alla medborgare föremål för åtal även om individen lider av en allvarlig psykisk störning. Åtalade som lider av en allvarlig psykisk störning kan få rättspsykiatrisk vård som påföljd. Rättspsykiatrisk vård är en tidsobestämd påföljd som inte kan kombineras med ett fängelsestraff. Vården kan förenas med en så kallad särskild utskrivningsprövning om det finns risk för att persIn Swedish penal law all defendants can be prosecuted even if they suffer from a serious mental disorder. These defendants can be sentenced to forensic psychiatric care for an indefinite time. In today’s system there are no possibilities to combine psychiatric care with prison as a penalty. The psychiatric care can be combined with a special discharge review that enables the convicted’s sentence t
In a recent paper,(1) we investigated how the interaction between two adsorbing surfaces in a polymer solution responds to changes of the intrinsic stiffness of the polymer chains. We demonstrated that as the chain rigidity is increased, starting from the fully flexible limit, a free energy barrier develops. In this work, we shall continue our studies of semiflexible polymers but focus on the othe
Popular Abstract in Swedish Det är välkänt att övervikt och fetma är starkt associerade med sjukliga förändringar i hjärtkärlsystemet och ökar risken att drabbas av hjärtkärlsjukdom och förtida död. Trots att viktnedgång hos överviktiga kan leda till en tillbakagång av sjukliga förändringar i hjärta och kärl, har man dock inte klart visat att viktnedgång leder till minskad risk att drabbas av hjärHigh body mass index (BMI) is associated with cardiovascular risk factors such as hypertension, dyslipidemia, and insulin resistance. Obesity is also an independent risk factor for coronary artery disease (CAD) and can cause structural as well as functional changes in the heart. High BMI is associated with increased mortality in the population. Weight-loss from a state of overweight or obesity may
Asthma patients who continue to experience symptoms despite taking regular inhaled corticosteroids represent a management challenge. Leukotrienes play a key role in asthma pathophysiology, and since pro-inflammatory leukotrienes are poorly suppressed by corticosteroids it seems rational to add a leukotriene receptor antagonist (LTRA) when a low to moderate dose of inhaled corticosteroids does not
Reconstructions of palaeomagnetic secular variation (PSV) in sediment cores can be compared to well-dated regional PSV master curves to infer deposition age. The existing PSV master curve for Fennoscandia, "Fennostack" (Snowball et al., 2007), is limited to the past 10 ka. In this study, we construct a deglacial (for the interval 14-11 ka) PSV master curve for Fennoscandia by including data from a
We present a new methodology, which we call Single Pair of Observations Technique with Eddy Covariance (SPOT-EC), to estimate regional-scale surface fluxes of 222Rn from tower-based observations of 222Rn activity concentration, CO2 mole fractions and direct CO2 flux measurements from eddy covariance. For specific events, the regional (222Rn) surface flux is calculated from short-term changes in am
This thesis contributes to econometric methodology in terms of estimation and inference in static panel data models with unobserved multidimensional heterogeneity. When not properly accounted for, unobserved heterogeneity may introduce bias into the parameter estimates associated with covariates of interest, such as treatment indicators or determinants of macroeconomic indicators. A common way of
Antigens of the clinically important ABO and P1PK blood group systems are carbohydrate structures. Thus the underlying genes do not encode antigens directly but glycosyltransferases that add specific sugar molecules to selected precursor chains. The aim of this study was to investigate the transcriptional regulation of ABO and A4GALT, with an emphasis on interindividual differences. The up-and dow

While surgery is a cornerstone in treatment of peripheral nerve injuries, it is not a comprehensive approach, and outcome is unsatisfactory, especially sensory function. The present aim was to translate recent findings about stem- and progenitor cells to improve regenerative outcome, where the cells have to be autologous, available within the same surgical procedure, and minimally manipulated. Gra
In the field of sociophysics, concepts and techniques taken from statistical physics are used to model and investigate some social and political behavior of a large group of humans: their social network is given by a simple graph and neighboring individuals meet and interact in pairs or small groups. Although most of the established models feature rather simple microscopic interaction rules, the m
The internet has radically transformed the way that people seek and share information and, as a consequence, their relationship to established epistemic authorities. It has been stated that ‘the contestation of expertise is perhaps nowhere more pronounced’ than in the field of health (Vuolanto et al., 2020: 508). Health-related information on the internet stems from a variety of actors and sometim
Forskare och praktiker betonar alltmer vikten av tvärvetenskapliga och experimentella sätt att förstå och bemöta hållbarhetsutmaningar. Det finns en bred enighet om att samhället måste genomgå djupa och radikala förändringar, alltså omvandling (transformation). Men detta berorpå många dynamiska faktorer i lokala sammanhang. I denna avhandling utforskar jag hur man kan främja experimentella tvärvetScholars and practitioners increasingly emphasize the importance of transdisciplinary and experimental approaches for understanding and addressing sustainability challenges. While there is widespread agreement that human society must undergo deep and radical changes, or so-called transformation, how transformation happens depends on multiple and dynamic factors in local contexts.

När vi människor försöker röra på oss skickas elektriska impulser genom nervsystemet från hjärnan ner till de muskler som är inblandade i den tilltänkta rörelsen. Att kunna mäta sådana nervimpulser hade varit av värde för en rad tillämpningar—information hade då kunnat överföras direkt från nervsystemet utan att gå via långsamma, mekaniska gränssnitt så som tangentbord och pekskärmar. OlyckligtvisElectrical activity produced by muscles during voluntary movement is a reflection of the firing patterns of relevant motor neurons and, by extension, the latent motor intent driving the movement. Once transduced via electromyography (EMG) and converted into digital form, this activity can be processed to provide an estimate of the original motor intent and is as such a feasible basis for non-invas
Objective: It has been proposed that endogenous sex hormone levels may present a modifiable risk factor for cognitive decline. However, the evidence for effects of sex steroids on cognitive ageing is conflicting. We therefore investigated associations between endogenous hormone levels, androgen receptor CAG repeat length, and cognitive domains including visuoconstructional abilities, visual memory
