  1. 16. ADHD in substance use disorders : prevalence and pharmacotherapy

    Författare :Maija Konstenius; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Substance use disorders (SUD) and Attention deficit /hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) are persistent and prevailing disorders that conjointly are associated with negative lifeevents and mental distress. The overall aim of this thesis was to examine the rate of ADHD in substance using populations and to investigate the feasibility and efficacy of methylphenidate pharmacotherapy for treatment of co-existing ADHD and SUD.

  3. 17. Violence against a person : the role of mental disorder and abuse : a study of homicides and an analysis of criminality in a cohort of patients with schizophrenia

    Författare :Per Lindqvist; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Aggression; alcohol intoxication; alcoholism; family; follow-up studies; forensic psychiatry; homicide; mental disorder; schizophrenia; substance abuse;

    Sammanfattning : Interpersonal violence is a matter of growing concern. Where the safety of the common man is concerned, the dangerousness of mental patients, the ongoing de-institutionalization within psychiatry, and the role of alcohol is disputed. LÄS MER

  4. 18. Cognitive deficits in alcohol use disorder : etiology and treatment

  7. 20. Structure formation at solid/liquid interfaces : Understanding self-assembly and environmental challenges

    Författare :Shirin Nouhi; Adrian R. Rennie; Vassilios Kapaklis; Maja S. Hellsing; Ann Terry; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Solid liquid interface; neutron scattering; colloidal particles; self-assembly; perfluoroalkyl substance; Moringa seed proteins; adsorption; lamellar disorder; thermal fluctuations.;

    Sammanfattning : The work described in the present dissertation has explored the structure of particles and molecules at solid/liquid interfaces, aiming to understand the physics of self-organizing systems and use this knowledge to address some environmental issues. Surface-sensitive neutron scattering techniques, such as reflectometry and grazing incidence small angle scattering, have been used as the primary tool to investigate structures in proximity to an interface.
