Stock indices from the two countries are analysed to examine whether there exist any comovements between the different equity markets. Econometric time series testing of weekly stock values indicate that
Att ersätta bilresor med cykelresor har många fördelar, både ur ett individ- och samhällsperspektiv, t.ex. bättre hälsa genom ökad fysisk aktivitet, lägre nivåer av föroreningar och trängsel. Det finns dock vissa potentiella problem med en sådan förändring. Cyklister löper exempelvis högre risk för trafikolyckor per fordonskilometer än bilförare. Denna risk måste minimeras för en optimal övergång A shift in modal share from car driving to cycling has many benefits, bothfrom individual- and societal perspectives, e.g., better health from anincrease in physical activity, lower levels of pollution and congestion.However, there are also some potential problems with such a shift. Cyclistshave a higher risk of traffic incidents per travelled kilometre than cardrivers. This risk needs to be minim
Based on the experiences from a social innovation process ofSwedish preschool remodelling – aiming to enhance equal and inclusivelearning and play – the study investigates socio-material dimensions incomplex multi-actor/level (ex)change. Previous studies on systemic changethrough social innovation ecosystems help reveal dynamics and challenges inthe coordination of varying logics and interests amo
In recent years outsourcing of public health care activities has increased in Sweden. Outsourcing of public health care activities involves possibilities of innovation and improvement according to many, but there are difficulties with how to maintain and control quality in the outsourced activities. The focus of this thesis is on how quality is ensured when public activities are subject to contrac

Popular Abstract in Swedish Den vanligaste dödsorsaken i västvärlden är hjärt-kärlsjukdom. Därför finns det ett stort intresse att undersöka vilka faktorer som är av avgörande betydelse för att vi ska utveckla t.ex ateroskleros (åderförkalkning). Spelar livsstil och matvanor någon roll eller är det helt och hållet genetiskt betingat? Utvecklingen av förebyggande åtgärder, operationsteknik och postMigration and proliferation of smooth muscle cells (SMC) are important events in the development of atherosclerosis and restenosis following angioplastic surgery. It is important to gain further knowledge about the mechanisms regulating SMC form and function in order to understand the underlying disease process. In this thesis I have used cultured rat aortic SMC and analysed how these cells respon
This study is based on dialogic readings of two of John Cowper Powys´s major novels, A Glastonbury Romance and Porius. The aim of this thesis is to demonstrate the interrelationship in the examined texts between the chain of narrative displacements and the frequent changes of voice and genre. Powys´s cornucopian writing with its wide employment of characteristics from various genres
Gestational diabetes mellitus(GDM) defines an unhealthy state of hyperglycaemia that develops in response to an otherwise normal physiological adaptive insulin resistance state during pregnancy. However, the exact plasma glucose levels differentiating the unhealthy GDM state from a normal pregnancy is unknown, and relies upon arbitrary cut off criteria based on associations with adverse health out
Celiac disease is associated with the HLA-DR3-DQA1*05:01-DQB1*02:01 and DR4-DQA1*03:01-DQB1*03:02 haplotypes. In addition, there are currently over 40 non-HLA loci associated with celiac disease. This study extends previous analyses on different HLA haplotypes in celiac disease using next generation targeted sequencing. Included were 143 patients with celiac disease and 135 non-celiac disease cont
A 4 pi silicon bail for detection and identification of light charged particles in large multidetector gamma-arrays as EUROBALL is presented. The design is based on a N = 42 ball with 12 pentagons and 30 hexagons as used in the GASP array. The absorptive material for gamma-rays is minimized to the detector thickness of 300 or 500 mu m and a 0.63 mm ceramic backing. The geometrical coverage is desi
The main aim of this thesis is to explore young women’s lived experience of the body, which, on one hand, is viewed as deviant – the disabled body – and, on the other hand, is viewed as accomplished – the sporting body. The questions posed in the thesis are the following: how do the young women handle the two subject positions that emerge as a result of the perception of them as respectively devia
This article outlines some of the common denominators of Nordic crime fiction: characteristics beyond the geographical setting, which are shared by a majority of the fiction included in concepts like Nordic Noir or Scandicrime, and which seem to make this fiction especially attractive to international readers. Five such factors are found to be of particular importance: 1) The Stieg Larsson effect,
Popular Abstract in Swedish Summary in Swedish Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning Förhöjt blodtryck, s.k. hypertension, är en folksjukdom i västvärlden och en riskfaktor för hjärtkärlsjukdomar som hjärtinfarkt och stroke (slaganfall). Ca 27 % av den vuxna befolkningen i Sverige beräknas ha hypertension och är lika fördelad mellan män och kvinnor. Salt beräknas bidra till förhöjt blodtryck och kan Abstract The average amount of salt ingested is about 10 grams daily compared to less than one gram in pre-historic life. Salt, althought somewhat debated, is considered a risk factor for elevated blood pressure and end organ damage beyond the blood pressure effect. Thus, salt contributes to the hypertensive phenotype, increase risk of cardiovasvcular disease, deaths and is a great socioeconomic
Background: Previous research suggests that sleep problems may be an important predictor for chronic widespread pain (CWP). With this study we investigated both sleep problems and fatigue as predictors for the onset of CWP over a 5-year and an 18-year perspective in a population free from CWP at baseline. Methods: To get a more stable classification of CWP, we used a wash-out period, including onl
Background: Active compression-decompression cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ACD-CPR) utilises a suction cup to lift the chest-wall actively during the decompression phase (AD). We hypothesised that mechanical ACD-CPR (Intervention), with AD up to 30 mm above the sternal resting position, would generate better haemodynamic results than standard mechanical CPR (Control). Methods: This out-of-hospita

Tidtabeller är nyckeln för att utnyttja den tillgängliga kapaciteten på järnvägen på ett optimalt sätt. I Sverige är det Trafikverket som tilldelar kapacitet genom att årligen ta fram en tågplan som specificerar alla tåg som ska framföras det kommande året. Att ta fram tågplanen är en komplex uppgift som försvåras av infrastrukturens begränsningar och att alla aktörer är beroende av varandra. När Timetables are the key to utilizing the capacity on the railway in an optimal way. In Sweden, the Swedish Transport Administration, Trafikverket, makes the allocation of capacity. It is done by preparing an annual timetable specifying all trains that will run the following year. Creating the annual timetable is a complex task made difficult by limitations in the infrastructure and because all acto
Illegal gränsöverskridande avfallshandel är en komplex fråga. Att en avfallstransport är illegal är inte alltid lätt att bevisa då det är flera aspekter som spelar in. I Sverige är det flera myndigheter som samarbetar på området och samarbetar med andra länder. Svenska myndigheter jobbar återkommande med att förbättra tillsynen när det kommer till att identifiera och stoppa de illegala avfallstranIllegal waste trafficking is today one of the most profitable illegal activities in the world. About 25 % of all global waste transports are estimated to be illegal and they are increasing. The same applies to plastics; the production of plastics is increasing and so is the illegal shipment of plastic waste. Due to the often- harmful substances in plastics, when plastic waste is not taken care of
