Popular Abstract in Swedish Att balansera. Cancer från ett primärvårdsperspektiv. Diagnostik, posttraumatisk stress och vård vid livets slut Denna avhandling belyser cancer från en utgångspunkt som kanske inte handlar om vad man först kommer att tänka på när man hör ordet cancerforskning. Det handlar inte om att “lösa cancerns gåta” eller att hitta nya metoder för behandling eller diagnos. UtgångThis thesis explores cancer from a primary care perspective covering three areas: diagnosis, posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and end-of-life care. We analyzed patient records of every child diagnosed with a malignancy in a defined area. During 12 years 68 children were diagnosed (incidence 14/100,000). For 68% the diagnosis was initiated in primary care. There were 25 children with leukemia
Popular Abstract in Swedish Diskussionen tar sin utgångspunkt i den klyfta som finns mellan, å ena sidan, stora delar av forsknings- och policy-världen och, å andra sidan, den verklighet som författaren stött på ute på den afrikanska landsbygden. Forskningsvärlden ser vattenresurser som en rent ekonomisk tillgång och småskaliga bönder beskrivs såsom vinstmaximerande individer, medan verkligheten äAllocation, control, and management of natural resources are issues that absorb researchers within both the social and natural sciences. This study deals with such research questions as well as with one of the most fundamental issues in Economic History – namely institutional change. The plot is set around continuity and change of property rights institutions governing water resources. The setting
Self-adaptive software systems are designed to support a number of alternative solutions for fulfilling their requirements. These define an adaptation space. During operation, a self-adaptive system monitors its performance and when it finds that its requirements are not fulfilled, searches its adaptation space to select a best adaptation. Two major problems need to be addressed during the selecti
Public service organizations rely on IT systems to fulfill their missions. IT incidents are more and more frequent and the impacts of IT incidents on the organizations are getting more severe. There is a strong need to manage risks on service related IT systems in public service organizations. Risk management process practiced in software development companies cannot be used in public service orga

The objective was to investigate if diffusing laser fibres can be modelled as conductive heat sources without miscalculating coagulated volumes, and if finite element analysis, disregarding light transport, may be used for three dimensional (3D) treatment planning in interstitial laser thermotherapy (ILT). Temperature distributions and coagulated volumes with a diffusing laser fibre, as compared t
The Emergency Management sector in Denmark consists of 24 Municipal Fire and Rescue Services (MFRSs) responsible for providing a justifiable response to prevent, limit, and redress personal injury and damage to property and the environment arising from accidents and disasters. This research investigates how the MFRSs throughout Denmark define and direct the prevention and response parameters of qu
BackgroundBreathlessness is a common and distressing symptom across a wide range of medical conditions. Different aspects (dimensions) of breathlessness can be assessed using the Multidimensional Dyspnoea Profile (MDP) and Dyspnoea-12 (D12) questionnaires. We aimed to examine whether the order of completing MDP and D12 affects the breathlessness responses in people with cardiorespiratory disease.M
Independence and collaboration both play crucial roles in PhD students’ research practice and in their socialization into the PhD role. This study examines how theexpectation of PhD students' academic independence intersects with the need for more collaborative engagements within research groups. Drawing on interviews with supervisors and an analysis of co-authorship patterns in PhD studentdissert
BACKGROUND: The implementation of COVID-19 vaccination among older persons at nursing homes has lowered the infection-associated mortality considerably, but emerging virus variants and decline in vaccine-induced immunity over time necessitate examination of future booster dosing strategies. The overall aim of this study was to assess vaccine protection against COVID-19 mortality in relation to tim
Objective: Foetal growth restriction (FGR) affects 10% of pregnancies, contributing to 30% of stillbirths. Current management of early-onset FGR (< 32 + 0 weeks' gestation) delivers the foetus before stillbirth or irreversible organ damage. The resulting preterm births create additional risks independent of FGR. We determined the economic cost associated with severe early-onset FGR. Design: Econom
Cognitive control is a skill used to control one’s own behaviour to reach a goal. We compared this skill across archosaurs by using the distraction task on American alligators, emus, chickens, and common ravens. We investigated whether the animals would still find a food reward hidden behind one of two identical opaque barriers after picking up a food distraction. Results show that all species can
Oral assessment is an important method to evaluate the learning outcomes of scientific courses. However,there are certain limitations when oral assessment is applied.One of these limitations, which is not apparent in anonymous written exams, is the existence of biases which could lead to unfair (positive or negative) outcomes of the assessment. This could lead to decreased motivation and sense of
Research on human emotions towards large carnivores is often based on self-reported emotions. This study aimed to investigate physiological and behavioral responses to feared animals among people who say that they are fearful or not fearful of brown bear and wolf. Participants were recruited to be bear fearful only (n=8), fearful of both bear and wolves (n=15), or fearful of neither carnivore (n=1
