Ehlers-Danlos syndrom (EDS) är en grupp ärftliga sjukdomar som påverkar kroppens bindväv. Sjukdomen kan yttra sig på många olika sätt och de vanligaste symtomen är töjbar hud, överrör- liga leder och kronisk smärta. Patienter med EDS upplever ofta misstro i mötet med den skånska sjukvården. År 2022 startades en specialistenhet vid Skånes universitetssjukhus (SUS) för att säkra vården för denna patIntroduction: Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS) is a group of hereditary diseases that affect the body’s connective tissue. It presents with many different symptoms, the most common being stretchy skin, hypermobility and chronic pain. EDS-patients often experience mistrust and disbelief in their encounters with healthcare personnel. A specialized healthcare unit was established at Skåne University Hosp

This project named Kursi aims to address the design challenges specific to the moun- tainous regions of Nepal. These areas are renowned for trekking and can only be reached after days of arduous hiking or by air travel, typically through helicopters. Tourism plays a significant role in the lives of the local communities, and the landscape has adapted to accommodate these temporary residents who

UNLABELLED: Trigger finger is overrepresented among patients with diabetes mellitus (DM). Whether DM affects the outcome after open trigger finger release (OTFR) in patients with DM is not known. Our aim was thus to explore outcomes after OTFR in patients with type 1 (T1D) and type 2 DM (T2D).METHODS: Data included patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) from all OTFRs performed between 2010 and

PAX Good Behavior Game (PAX-GBG) är en skolbaserad intervention som har visats öka elevers självreglering, främja prosociala beteenden och hämma utmanande beteenden. Det finns dock begränsad kunskap kring hur deltagande elever känner inför interventionen. Vi genomförde semistrukturerade intervjuer och enkätundersökningar med elever i 3:e klass i Sverige för att undersöka deras känslor kring och atPAX Good Behavior Game (PAX-GBG) is a school-based intervention which has been shown to increase student’s self-regulation, promote prosocial behaviors, and inhibit challenging behaviors. However, little is known about how participating students feel about the intervention. In this study, we conducted semi-structured interviews and surveys with 3rd grade students in Sweden to examine their feeling

Diet-related diseases kill millions of people every year and pose significant costs to the economy and society. In Sweden, this is an increasingly prevalent phenomenon. However, a healthy diet can prevent this. This thesis investigates what costs and benefits there are to adopting healthy eating habits and how these effects impact the Swedish economy. This thesis finds that the costs and benefits

Att Östersjöns tillstånd är ur balans har sedan länge varit ett faktum. Hanöbukten, ett havsområde som sträcker sig förbi Listerlandet i norr till Simrishamn i söder, har varit föremål för diskussioner om och observationer av minskat bestånd av kustnära fisk, ökad frekvens på sårskador på fisk och att vattnet emellanåt varit illaluktande och brunaktig. Undersökningar av miljöföroreningar har utförThe Baltic Seas imbalanced state has long been a recognized fact. Hanö Bay, a marine area stretching from Listerlandet in the north to Simrishamn in the south, has been subject of discussions and observations regarding declining populations of coastal fish, increased frequency of fish injuries and occasional foul-smelling and brownish water. Environmental pollution investigations have been conduct

Dispositionsprincipen är en grundläggande princip i svensk processrätt. Prin-cipen innebär att rätten endast ska eller får företa en viss processhandling på yrkande av en eller båda parterna. Principen gäller i såväl domstolsprocesser som i skiljetvister. I svensk processrätt kommer dispositionsprincipen främst till uttryck i 17 kap. 3 § rättegångsbalken, vilken i första meningen föreskri-ver att The principle of party-disposition is a fundamental principle in Swedish pro-cedural law. The principle means that the court should only undertake a cer-tain procedural action upon the request of one or both parties. This principle applies to both court proceedings and arbitration disputes. In Swedish pro-cedural law, the principle of party-disposition is primarily expressed in Chapter 17, Section

A growing trend within the technologies acting as enablers for 6g, such as Massive MIMO and Large Intelligence Surfaces, is benefiting from both the communication and the positioning aspects that they can provide. As these kinds of systems are employing a large number of arrays which provide high amounts of data, a distributed hardware approach having near-antenna processing is explored in this wo

Background: Preload responsive postoperative patients with signs of inadequate organ perfusion are commonly assumed to be hypovolemic and therefore treated with fluids to increase preload. However, preload is influenced not only by blood volume, but also by venous vascular tone and the contribution of these factors to preload responsiveness in this setting is unknown. Based on this, the objective

Mitochondria play essential roles in plant metabolism, supporting both development and stress responses. To maintain a healthy pool of mitochondria, several quality control systems are in place. Selected degradation of mitochondria by autophagy -mitophagy- has been extensively studied in yeast and animals, but information on mitophagy components in plants is limited. The ‘Friendly Mitochondria’ (F

In yet another alarming development in Syria, the waters of the Euphrates River have declined to critically low levels in 2021. The unprecedented low water levels of the Euphrates put nearly 5.5 million Syrians at risk as they depend on the Euphrates basin for drinking water and agricultural production. This study examines the phenomenon of water shortages in the Euphrates River whilst utilising t

In Colombia, the renewable energy transition has brought a focus on the La Guajira department, which is largely inhabited by the Indigenous Wayúu communities, which face a long history of exploitation, marginalisation and neglect. The Colombian path towards a just renewable energy transition is obscured by the controversies surrounding the large-scale expansion of wind parks and associated infrast

This thesis explores Saudi women’s participation in public life, particularly the changing role of women in public life before and after the launch of Saudi vision 2030. Taking a qualitative content analysis, this thesis uses two representative Saudi female films directed by the first Saudi female director, and , as my cases. It also attempts to explore the dynamic interplay between the social ch

This thesis addresses the ongoing debate on the involvement of Chinese nationals in Ghana's artisanal and small-scale gold mining (ASGM) sector. Despite the Minerals and Mining Law, Act 703 (2006) prohibiting foreigners from engaging in ASGM, it is reported that about 50,000 Chinese nationals have migrated to rural Ghana to engage in illegal mining activities. This has caught the attention of

The accumulation of carbon (C) within boreal forest biomass is an important component of the global carbon cycle. Whilst it is understood that old forests contain a large carbon stock, the continued sequestration of carbon in these forests is debated. Swedish forests today are intensively managed as even-aged monocultures with short rotation times and have historically been managed through selecti

Systemic racism is a prevalent and longstanding problem in society that gained widespread public interest through the Black Lives Matter movement. Following the murder of George Floyd in May 2020, the movement expanded to Austria and brought heightened attention to the racialized branding of an Austrian brewery. Here, this expansion contributed to an existing resistance of the NO MOHR campaign aga
