  1. 11. Academic Performance in Swedish Ninth Grade Students Treated for Brain Tumours

    Författare :Malin Lönnerblad; Eva Berglund; Klas Blomgren; Ingrid van’t Hooft; Lisa Thorell; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; School performance; academic performance; brain tumour; academic grades; national tests; delayed graduation; theoretical subjects; practical and aesthetic subjects; specialpedagogik; Special Education;

    Sammanfattning : The overall aim of this thesis was to investigate how children in Sweden treated for brain tumours performed in their ninth year at school compared with matched controls. The studies investigated grades and results from national tests in the theoretical subjects of Swedish, English, and mathematics; grades in the practical and aesthetic subjects of art, crafts, music, home and consumer studies, physical education and health; and the frequency of delayed graduation and qualification for school years 10-12 (corresponding to upper-secondary school or high school).

  2. 12. Improving the transparency and predictability of environmental risk assessments of pharmaceuticals

    Författare :Marlene Ågerstrand; Christina Rudén; Cynthia de Wit; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; environmental risk assessment; pharmaceuticals; transparency; predictability; accuracy; consistency; voluntary initiatives; reliability evaluation; non-standard test data.; Philosophy subjects; Filosofiämnen;

    Sammanfattning : The risk assessment process and the subsequent risk management measures need tobe constantly evaluated, updated and improved. This thesis contributes to that workby considering, and suggesting improvements, regarding aspects like userfriendliness,transparency, accuracy, consistency, data reporting, data selection anddata evaluation.

  3. 13. Optimizing and evaluation of a methacholine provocation test : with application in occupational research

    Författare :Britt-Marie Sundblad; Bengt-Eric Skoogh; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Physiology; Airway responsiveness; methacholine provocation; nitric oxide; eucapnic hyperventilation; organic dust; Fysiologi; Physiology; Fysiologi; Physiology; fysiologi;

    Sammanfattning : We have developed a methacholine provocation method, which detects bronchial responsiveness in more than 80% of healthy subjects. The method enables us to detect differences in bronchial responsiveness within the normal range. With this method FEV1 and Gaw had similar sensitivity in detecting small differences in bronchial responsiveness. LÄS MER

  4. 14. The Rarebit fovea test : a new measure of visual function

    Författare :Maria Nilsson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Rarebit Fovea Test; Rarebit Perimetry; foveal function; fixation; diabetes; cataract; binocular summation;

    Sammanfattning : Visual acuity (VA) measurement by the use of letter charts is the most frequently used method for testing foveal function. However, since a decimal visual acuity of 1. LÄS MER

  5. 15. A New Shoulder for the THOR Dummy Intended for Oblique Collisions

    Författare :Fredrik Törnvall; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Shoulder; Shoulder range-of-motion; Volunteers; Kinematics; Biofidelity; Post Mortem Human Subjects; THOR; Crash test dummy; Oblique collision;

    Sammanfattning : Offset and oblique frontal car collisions represent a type of crash in which severe and fatal injuries frequently occur. This indicates the importance of having protective systems in vehicles for these types of collisions. LÄS MER
