Background: Excess body weight and weight gain have been reported to independently increase the risk of several cancers. There are few published studies in nationally representative populations of women on specific, ‘obesity-related’ cancers in relation to prior weight change and relevant confounders. Methods: Based on self-reported anthropometry, we prospectively assessed body mass index (BMI), w

There is widespread agreement on the many benefits citizens gain from recreational use of local green spaces such as urban woodlands, and the importance of involving users in the development of their everyday landscapes. Despite this, the impact of userparticipation on the quality of public green spaces has not been thoroughly studied. In this PhD thesis, resident participation in public urban woo

Även om man redan under 1930- och 40 talen förstod att små vattendroppar under vissa förutsättningar kan förbättra släckeffektiviteten för vatten jämfört med större vattendroppar och slutna vattenstrålar, så var det inte förrän på 1990 talet som tekniken med fasta system med ”vattendimma” kommersialiserades. Incitamentet var i första hand det så kallade Montrealprotokollet och branden ombord på paModern, commercial water mist fire protection system technology evolved at the beginning of the 1990s due a need to replace halon fire-extinguishing systems and improve fire safety on passenger ships. This thesis documents the unknown water mist system development work by two Swedish companies during the 1970s and 1980s. It also documents the development of the first international installation rec

The erection process of in situ cast concrete frameworks in multi-storey housing consists of multiple on site activities in which labour, equipment and materials are interacting in a complex system. Studies have shown that the current process involves a wide range of non-value adding activities, resulting in poor process efficiency. This paper presents a model developed for discrete-event simulati

Ribonucleotide reductase (RNR) is a central enzyme for DNA building block synthesis. Most aerobic organisms, including nearly all eukaryotes, have class I RNRs consisting of R1 and R2 subunits. The catalytic R1 subunit contains an overall activity site that can allosterically turn the enzyme on or off by the binding of ATP or dATP, respectively. The mechanism behind the ability to turn the enzyme

Human dependence is a phenomenon with above all negative connotations. We tend to associate it either with addiction or an economic, social and emotional lack of independence and view it as an impediment to women’s liberation. Dependence has been viewed as mutually exclusive to freedom. This is particularly the case in a country like Sweden, where independence is built in to the societal system so

We introduce and provide a new data-set of species-specific ecological indicator values (alternative ‘Ellenberg values’ for climatic variables, light, moisture, soil reaction/pH, salinity, nitrogen and phosphorus plus response to management and disturbance), physiological and reproductive traits (including symbionts, phenology, pol- linators, nectar production, seed properties), indices of relevanWe introduce and provide a new data-set of species-specific ecological indicator values (alternative ‘Ellenberg values’ for climatic variables, light, moisture, soil reaction/pH, salinity, nitrogen and phosphorus plus response to management and disturbance), physiological and reproductive traits (including symbionts, phenology, pol- linators, nectar production, seed properties), indices of relevan

Recension av Fredrik Malm: Naftasyndikat

En redogörelse av en enkel undersökning som visar att en övervägande majoritet av de tillfrågade föredrar en mer klassisk version av byggnad i centrala Helsingborg framför den modernistiska som förverkligas.

En reflektion kring värdet av en attraktiv stadskärna i tider

BACKGROUND: Urothelial carcinoma is the predominant (95%) bladder cancer subtype in industrialized nations. Animal and epidemiologic human studies suggest that hormonal factors may influence urothelial carcinoma risk. METHODS: We used an analytic cohort of 333,919 women from the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition Cohort. Associations between hormonal factors and incident
