    Sammanfattning : This thesis explores the experiences of living with oesophageal cancer from the perspective of patients and family members. Also, their needs for information and how they seek information in relation to the illness were investigated. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Prenatal diagnosis in routine antenatal care : a randomised controlled trial

    Författare :Sissel Saltvedt; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Ultrasound; fetal ultrasonography; Down s syndrome; chromosomal disorder; nuchal translucency; genetic screening; prenatal diagnosis; abnormalities; gestational age; in vitro fertilization; fetometry; dating formulas; false positive reactions; anxiety;

    Sammanfattning : Nuchal translucency (NT) measurement combined with maternal age has been shown to identify women at an increased risk of carrying a fetus with Down's syndrome (DS) more accurately than does maternal age alone. The aim of this study was to evaluate more widely the effects of two different strategies for prenatal diagnosis. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Stopover behaviour in migratory songbirds: timing, orientation and departures

    Författare :Sissel Sjöberg; Funktionell zoologi; []

  5. 4. Growth, Characterization, and Thermal Stability of CeO2 Thin Films

    Författare :Sissel N. Jacobsen; David K. Fork; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Rare earth oxides are potentially useful materials in various optical electronic, and catalytic devices. The characteristics of such devices are strongly dependent on the interface structure of heterojunctions, hence engineering of the performance can be achieved through tailoring of the micro- and/ or surface structure.
