Icke farmakologisk behandling av illamående och kräkningar hos kvinnor med bröstcancer som behandlas med cytostatika
Illamående och kräkningar hos kvinnor som behandlas med cytostatika mot bröstcancer är ettomfattande problem inom den onkologiska omvårdnaden. Många kvinnor upplever, trots välutvecklade läkemedel för att motverka cytostatika utlöst illamående och kräkningar denna, förmånga fruktade biverkan. Syftet med litteraturöversikten var att finna förebyggande ochlindrande icke farmakologiska metoder som kan hjälpa till att minska det cytostatika utlöstaillamåendet och kräkningarna som kan uppstå hos kvinnor med bröstcancer i samband medcytostatikabehandlingen och effekten av dessa metoder.Som teoretiskt stöd användes Orem´s egenvårdsteori och för att identifiera metoderna gjordesen litteraturöversikt med kvantitativa originalartiklar ur vetenskapliga tidskrifter. De ickefarmakologiska metoderna som studerades var akupressur, elektroakupunktur, yoga,fysiskträning, massage och utbildning.Användandet av dessa icke farmakologiska metoder visade på en minskning av cytostatikautlöst illamående och kräkningar, antingen som placeboeffekt eller som faktisk effekt. Sombifynd diskuteras ångest och stress effekt på illamående och kräkningar, eftersom metodernavisat sig kunna inverka och förbättra kvinnornas sinnesstämning genom suggestion.De studerade icke farmakologiska metoderna är förhållandevis lätta att tillämpa och är inte såtidskrävande.

Lövskogens förändring i eklandskapet söder om Linköping : 1927 jämfört med 2013
The forests of Sweden are constantly changing. Map studies indicate that the amount of deciduous trees in Sweden has decreased in recent years in favor of the coniferous trees. The National Forest Inventory has since the early 1920s monitored the Swedish forests and in recent years has made the old data digitally available. In the present project, we have investigated how the numbers of stems in different diameter classes have changed for birch and other deciduous trees. The inventory was conducted in the same manner as in the first forest inventory.
Oralt intag av grönt te och dess effekt på uppkomsten av UV-inducerad hudrodnad, erythema solare ? En systematisk litteraturöversikt
Sahlgrenska Academyat University of GothenburgDepartment of Internal Medicine and Clinical NutritionAbstractTitle: Oral intake of green tea and its effect on the appearance of UV-induced erythema, erythema solare ? A systematic literature reviewAuthors: Ernita Antoni Mulliqi and Pernilla GustafssonSupervisor: Sofia KlingbergExaminer: Ingrid LarssonProgramme: Dietetics programme, 180/240 ECTSType of paper: Examination paper, 15 hpDate: April 10, 2013Background: UV irradiation of the skin can cause erythema, clinically called erythema solare. The condition can exert pain as well as discomfort and may in the long term lead to negative effects including skin cancer. Green tea contains catechins which are substances with anti-inflammatory effect that may have positive effects on the skin. The intake of green tea is believed to have a protective effect against UV irradiation, since green tea extracts in lotions in previous studies have shown to increase the skin tolerance level against UV irradiation.Objective: To examine the scientific basis and determine whether an oral intake of green tea has a protective effect against UV-induced erythema.Search strategy: Searches in the scientific databases PubMed and Scopus were made to find suitable articles.
Information inför mammografi som hälsokontroll
Bakgrund:I Sverige inbjuds alla kvinnor i åldern 40 till 74 år regelbundet till mammografi som hälsokontroll. Undersökningen är frivillig och syftet är att minska dödligheten i bröstcancer. För att kvinnor ska kunna fatta ett välgrundat beslut om att medverka vid mammografi som hälsokontroll eller inte, bör informationen vara relevant och sanningsenlig. Evidensbaserad information som beskriver både för- och nackdelar med mammografi som hälsokontroll är därför av stor vikt. Syftet:Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka innehållet i den information som skickas till kvinnor i Sverige i samband med kallelsen till mammografi som hälsokontroll.
Resursskola, berättigad skolform eller tvivelaktig placering? : -en studie ur elevperspektiv.
The purpose of this report is to investigate teachers views of whether pupils with Asperger Syndrome, autistic symptoms or ADHD shall go in ordinary classes or special groups. The study tells you about what difficulties these pupils often have, what adjustments they need in their schoolsituation and the positive and negative effects of joining a special group.A teacher for special needs, two teachers in special groups and two teachers in ordinary classes have been intervjued and earlier made researches have been studied.The conclusions of this study are that the decision of whether a pupil shall go in a normal class or a special group must be made individually. Most pupils who are capable to profit from the training in a normal class and pass their examination, shall go in a normal class. The greater part of the recommended adjustments are possible to do in a normal class. But it requires more resourses and teachers with better knowledges about theese handicaps..

"Titta fröken, en cirkel!" : Matematik i den fria leken, med fokus på sortering och klassificering
In my study I have chosen to examine the mathematics in children's free play and everyday situations, with focus on sorting and classification. The purpose of the study was to see how children express their mathematical knowledge. I have chosen to use a qualitative method in my examination, here I did observations in a children's group where the children were between three and six years old. I also did interviews with the teacher's on the department to see how they relate to the mathematics and how they formulate the department to achieve as good a learning environment as possible.The result shows that the teacher's approach is incredible important to the children's learning ability and that they are always present to challenge and discuss together with the children. The observation indicates that children use mathematics all the time in their everyday situations and that it is the interaction between individuals and environment that affects children's development. .
Samförstånd eller motstånd? : En jämförelse av uppbackningar i samtal mellan pojkar från teoretiska och praktiska gymnasieprogram

Two groups consisting of male students preparing for ensuing studies, and two groups consisting of male students taking vocational studies, was interviewed in four separate interviews. By comparing how these four groups used linguistic feedback in conversation noticeable differences has been identified. For example, the boys preparing for ensuing studies used linguistic feedback the most. Also, all interviewed groups used linguistic feedback the most when they agreed with each other.
Normer, presentation och självrepresentation : En kvalitativ studie om unga kvinnor som bloggar
In this paper we examine how young women present themselves on their weblogs. The main purpose of this study is to get their own opinions and thoughts about their own blogging, to see if we can find norms for how they present themselves and how the presentation online matches themselves offline. We put this in relation to information technologies, social software and Computer mediated communication, CMC. It´s also in our interest to see how the phenomenon of blogs, its role and methods of communication have changed and developed in the last few years, and whether there are differences in the way people use it according to age. The major finding is that, unlike previous research, the women in our study tend to be themselves in their weblogs and they do not manipulate their identities.
Implementation av Informationssäkerhet : Utvärdering av möjligheten att använda Change Management som stöd
