Method: Two cohorts from Northern Sweden, one of T1DM patients and one of a general population, were given survey

A study investigating methods of ultrasound imaging for detection and treatment of Hirschsprung's disease. Hirschsprung's disease is characterized by the absence of ganglia cells in the colon and rectum. The diagnosis today consists of x-ray and biopsies from the bowel wall. The affected part of the bowel needs to be surgically removed to allow normal bowel function. During the surgery bio

This research uniquely addresses the underexplored area of storytelling as a medium for learning and safety in sports diving, a high-risk discretionary activity. It achieves this by utilising a comprehensive mixed-method approach, that incorporates online surveys, focus groups, and interviews to gather perspectives from a wide range of stakeholders in the diving community. The informants were dive

Popular Abstract in English The potential of coconut proteins as food ingredients was studied with the aim of evaluating how plant proteins, in particular those from coconut, could find industrial applications and compete with proteins of animal origin based on meat, fish, milk or eggs. Three research directions were chosen for investigation, to evaluate how coconut proteins would perform in each At present, coconut proteins are discarded as a waste product by the coconut oil industry. If the range of applications of coconut proteins is to be expanded, their potential functionalities should be investigated. Emulsions and gels are of the greatest interest in food industry. Today the dry processing of copra at elevated temperatures is used to optimize the oil recovery. The functionalities o

The paper investigates possible effects of cross-linguistic variation on measures of syntactic complexity in 60 texts from learners of L2 English, L3 French and L4 Italian at CEFR level A and CEFR level B. A previous study by Gyllstad et al. (2014) showed significant differences between proficiency levels for two length measures of complexity in English and French, but not in Italian. In this papeThe paper investigates possible effects of cross‐linguistic variation on measures of syntactic complexity in 60 texts from Swedish L1 learners of English, French and Italian as foreign languages at CEFR level A and CEFR level B. A previous study on the same learners and texts, showed significant differences between proficiency levels for two length measures of complexity in English and French, but

A major theme of the current “Haitian turn” has been what I call a “universality-analysis”, which stresses that the Haitian Revolution, in contrast to the American and the French, once and for all abolished slavery. The chapter investigates the intervention into the Haitian Turn by two scholars specialized in the history of human rights: Lynn Hunt, who advocates a universality-analysis of the Hait

24 million people in war-torn Yemen were in 2019 in need of humanitarian aid. Delivery of aid has been hindered by parties to the conflict in what is best described as a strategic weaponization of food. The use of food as a weapon in Yemen requires thorough investigation, but there is a lack of research on the topic. Through a qualitative analysis of the single case of Yemen, this study identifies

Since June 2012 to September 2016, it is estimated that about 300 people has been travelling from Sweden to the conflict in Syria and Iraq. At the same time, and the years leading up to 2012 and after, segregation in the second and third-biggest cities in Sweden- Gothenburg and Malmo could be seen according to data. This thesis examines the relationship between travellers and the circumstances of

The source material consists

It changed the so called ´FRA-law` which regard the institution ´Swedish Defence Radio Authority` and enabled it to wiretap all telephone and Internet traffic that crosses Sweden's borders. With these two central factors for a ´good` democratic com

African cooperatives are in the process to adapt to a liberalised economy where they are expected to function as independent business entities. So is also the case in Uganda where the competition on the free market puts pressure on cooperative performance. This thesis asks the question why some cooperatives fail in this context while others succeed and tries to find the answer in the organisationa
