  1. 1. Chronic pain related to childbirth : Prevalence, characteristics, women's experiences about its impact and support from healthcare

    Författare :Beata Molin; Susanne Georgsson; Anna Sand; Anna-Karin Berger; Sofia Zwedberg; Linda Vixner; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; Sophiahemmet Högskola; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Pregnancy and labour often entail pain and tissue damage, which may lead to the development of chronic pain. Globally, chronic pain, defined as pain that persists after three months, is a leading cause of lasting suffering and disability. If pain is not timely diagnosed and adequately treated it can become a chronic condition. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Endothelin and nitric oxide in the fetoplacental circulation

    Författare :Anna Sand; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Fetoplacental circulation; placental arteries; endothelin-1; nitric oxide; potassium channels; M-CSF; endothelin receptors; BKCa; ETA; ETB;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Normal fetal growth and development depend on a satisfactory uteroplacental and fetoplacental blood flow. This will ensure an adequate gaseous exchange and nutritional supply to the fetus. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Volatile organic compounds from microorganisms : identification and health effects

    Författare :Anna-Sara Claeson; Anna-Lena Sunesson; Jan-Olof Levin; Steven Nordin; Bengt Järvholm; Charles Weschler; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :microorganisms; building materials; VOCs; MVOCs; amines; LC-MS MS; exposure; perceived air quality; Occupational and Environmental Medicine; arbets- och miljömedicin;

    Sammanfattning : Damp building materials are subjected to degradation processes due to moisture and also microbial growth, with both of these giving rise to emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) that may contribute to indoor air health problems. The overall aim of this thesis was to investigate emissions of reactive and non-reactive VOCs from damp building materials and from the microorganisms growing on them, and also to investigate the possible health impact of these compounds.

  5. 4. Drawing Lines in the Sand : Organizational Responses to Evaluations in a Swedish University

    Författare :Niklas Bomark; Stefan Arora-Jonsson; Fredrik Nilsson; Anna-Karin Stockenstrand; Roy Suddaby; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Organizational Responses; Evaluation; Rating; Research Evaluation; Business Studies; Företagsekonomi;

    Sammanfattning : As organizations are increasingly evaluated, evaluative practices are becoming central to organization theory. While highlighting how organizations may respond to evaluations, earlier work on organizations and evaluation has been limited to inter-organizational evaluations, such as third-party rankings or ratings.

  7. 5. Matrix Suction in Silt and Sand Slopes. Significance and Practical Use in Stability Analysis

    Författare :Anna-Lena Öberg; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Conventional stability analysis in unsaturated silt and sand slopes often results in unrealistically low factors of safety. The purpose of the study was to increase the knowledge and the understanding of the unsaturated zone and its matrix suction in order to facilitate more elaborate stability analyses of silt and sand slopes.
