Title: The municipal school of arts and music - "a school for everyone?" - A study of the accessibility of "Kulturskolor", focusing on the absence of fees. The aim of this thesis is to increase the understanding of a complex of problems concerning broadened recruitment of students and teachers in "Kulturskolor". I have chosen to focus on three schools of performing ar

According to statistics two thirds of Swedish criminals relapse into crimes within three years (Brå, 2007). Researchers suggest a relationship between attitudes toward crime and delinquent behaviour (Andrews & Bonta, 2003), but whether these attitudes are implicit or explicit remains unclear. Therefore, the aim of this study was to measure both constructs. Using SC-IAT (Karpinski & Steinma

Att ta körkort och skaffa bil är en självklarhet för många människor. För funktionshindrade kan körkort och bil bidra till ökad mobilitet och självständighet i vardagen. Arbetsterapeuten kan då hjälpa till med körkorts- och bilanpassningsfrågor då detta kan vara en besvärlig process för funktionshindrade. Syftet med studien var att, med stöd av den arbetsterapeutiska arbetsprocessen, undersöka hur

Stroke is a life threatening medical condition that is caused either by a blood clot or a bleeding inside the brain. It is generally agreed that immediate treatment of stroke patients is crucial for their ability to recover; however, before treatment can be initiated, the stroke patient has to be diagnosed using, for example, a computed tomography scan of the brain. This, in turn, requires that th

BACKGROUND: Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) is the single most common cause of vestibular vertigo and is characterised by short episodes of rotational vertigo precipitated by changes in head positions like lying down or turning in bed. OBJECTIVE: This study aims to assess useful questions when suspecting benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) caused dizziness as well as identifyin

Synucleinopathies, including Parkinson’s disease (PD), dementia with Lewy bodies(DLB) and multiple system atrophy (MSA), are a group of neurodegenerative disorders characterized by the abnormal accumulation of insoluble alpha-synuclein (α-syn) aggregates in the brain. The detection of α syn pathology has relied vastly on the use of several antibodies, which were mostly generated against different

In 2007, Roman Shukhevych (1907–1950), the commander of the Ukrainian Insurgent Army (UPA), was designated an official Ukrainian state hero. He has since become the object of an elaborate cult of personality. Lauded for his resistance to the Soviet authorities in 1944–1950, Shukhevych is highly controversial in neighbouring Poland for the ethnic cleansing that the UPA carried out in 1943–1944, as

Purpose: To evaluate the access to human rights of persons with disabilities who use prosthetic and orthotic assistive devices, and to compare groups of participants in terms of gender, residential area, income, and type and level of assistive device. The addressed areas were rights to: health, a standard of living adequate for health, education, marry and establish a family, vote, and work. Metho

We used the nation-wide Swedish Family-Cancer Database to analyze the risk for bone cancer in offspring by parental cancers and in siblings of bone cancer probands. Additionally, the risk of second cancer following childhood bone cancer was investigated. In offspring, 1,190 bone cancers were diagnosed between years 1958 and 1996. Groups of offspring were compared by calculating standardized incide

Purpose: We applied Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) methods in a structured benefit–risk assessment of cladribine and newer approved disease-modifying drugs (DMDs) for patients with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS). Methods: Decision conferencing with clinical neurologists as decision makers was used to create an MCDA model that incorporated available evidence on DMDs for RRMS

Background: Successful cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) requires appropriate left ventricular (LV) lead placement on a suitable segment of the free LV wall. Current guidelines suggest targeted lead placement, but the individual anatomy of the cardiac veins is often a limiting factor. Purpose: To map cardiac veins with multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) and plot the veins in cardiac se
