1. Conformational Studies of Biologically Active Peptides
Sammanfattning : In this work conformational studies have been performed on peptides from four different systems in an attempt to gain knowledge about their biological function. Circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy in combination with distance geometry and restrained molecular dynamics simulations were the methods used.

2. NMR STUDIES ON STRUCTURE AND DYNAMICS OF TWO-DOMAIN PROTEINS
Sammanfattning : The general objective of the present thesis work was to examine 3-dimensional structure as well as the motional properties of two different types of two-domain proteins by solution-state NMR. One of the major tasks of this thesis work was to investigate the domain orientation of these molecules by employing residual dipolar couplings (RDC) which can be used as orientational restraints for increasing the accuracy of protein structures determined by NMR.

3. Physical restraint use and falls in institutional care of old people : effects of a restraint minimization program
Sammanfattning : Physical restraint use and falls are common in institutional care of old people and various attempts have been made to reduce their occurrence. Falls and concomitant injuries are a major problem due to their negative effect on morbidity and mortality. LÄS MER
4. Older people's safety and security in community care for the elderly : focusing on fall risk and fall
Sammanfattning : Background: In Sweden the majority of very old people are healthy, and able to live in their own homes and manage without any assistance from their local authorities. However, many of them suffer from impaired cognitive and physical function, a decline in activity and poorer health, leading to a dependency on others in daily life. LÄS MER
5. Omvårdnadstraditioner inom svensk psykiatrisk vård under 1900-talets första hälft
Sammanfattning : The study concerns the history of Swedish psychiatric nursing in the first half of the 20th century. Its primary purpose is to draw on the experiences and insight of nurses to increase our knowledge of the history of Swedish psychiatric nursing. LÄS MER
