Förbättrad muskelfunktion och balans hos äldre kvinnor efter sex veckors funktionell träning
Sweden is the country that has got the largest amount of elderly in the adult population in the world. The physical activity level decreases as we grow old and we experience muscle mass loss and a bone density reduction. This leads to an increased risk for falls and subsequent fractures. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether an exercise program could affect muscle function and balance ability to prevent falls. 17 women (age 64-79) participated in this study and was assigned to a control group (n=7) and an intervention group (n=10).

Vaccinering mot H1N1 : En studie av vad som påverkade svenska individers vaccinationsbeslut 2009
The Swine flu (H1N1) erupted in 2009 and wasquickly spread over the world and developed into a pandemic, with a great threat against people?s health. It was soon discovered that the H1N1?virus had a different character than the seasonal flu, since it especially affected younger individuals and the consequences from the disease were expected to be more severe. In Sweden it was decided to provide a free of charge vaccination against the H1N1-virus, and the Swedish vaccination ratiobecome relatively high compared to other countries.
Lokala skillnader i konsumtion av påväxtalger och terrestra löv hos en differentierad population av Asellus aquaticus
That ecological and evolutionary processes can take place on the same time scale is a recent insight. Today we also know that they are directly linked to each other. In the lake Tåkern, in year 2000, there was a structural change when phytoplankton declined and submerged vegetation, mainly stoneworts began to spread. This led to evolutionary changes in the aquatic sowbug, Asellus aquaticus which had previously been limited to the reed, most likely feeding on detritus. But then, sowbugs could exploit the new habitat in stoneworts and a new food resource in terms of periphyton.
Prissättning av IPO:s på den svenska aktiemarknaden
Title: Pricing of IPO:s on the Swedish stock market
Authors: Mikael Gustavsson
Martin Kvist
Henrik Wannberg
Tutor: Anders Hederstierna
Problem: There are certain sets of problems for underwriters when they are
pricing potential stock-exchange companies. The problem partly consists of
estimating the demand at an IPO and also to accurately value the business in
comparison to the market.
To set the price per share is problematic, since the company carrying out the
public offering wants to optimise the amount of capital at the same time as
they want the share to be subscribed in full. If the IPO would not be carried
out, it could cause harm to the position of the underwriters.
Purpose: To investigate whether underpricing exists associated with IPO:s on
the Swedish market during the period 1995-1999.
Method: The collection of data has been achieved by means of: Internet, E-mail
and telephone calls.
Conclusions: We have reached the conclusion that oversubscribing in comparison
to the return at an IPO has an average growth of 3.3 per cent the first day, on
every occasion of oversubscribing.
For the studied population, including 138 initial public offerings, the average
market value rise is 15 per cent the first day. When we made our calculations,
adjustments have been made for the general index of Affärsvärlden (AFGX).
Biblioteksprofiler: kvalitativa fallstudier på tre folkbibliotek
The aim of this master?s thesis is to examine the roles ofthree different public libraries in three differentcommunities. In order to get some answers about the roles ofthe public libraries I have used the following questions: Howis the local cultural policy formulated? How is the locallibrary structured? What or which profiles has the publiclibraries in the three communities?I have made three qualitative case-studies in three differentcommunities. These three communities are somewhatlocated in the same area in order to identify any cooperationbetween them.
Managing urban development : A case study of urban forest?s sense ofplace in Hammarbyskogen, Stockholm
Due to the growing population in Stockholm, some of the urban green areas are beingsubjected to exploitation. Hammarbyskogen is an urban forest in the south of Stockholm andis an example of a green area that is planned to be transformed into an urban environment.This paper investigates key qualities and values of an urban forest of Hammarbyskogenvalued by local inhabitants of the neighbourhoods of Hammarbyhöjden and Björkhagen in thesouth of Stockholm. In addition to that, the study seeks to investigate people?s perception ofthe planned development of the forest as well as investigate how these perceptions andqualities are being incorporated into the process of neighbourhood development.Using text analysis, interviews and discussion forums, findings have been made showing thatthe local inhabitants value the urban forest mostly for its ecological and recreational qualities.Regarding perception of the change, people are either positive or negative to the developmentwhich can be explained by people?s experienced sense of place and place attachment of thearea and the forest itself. The study has also shown that the urban planners rely on localinhabitants? view, as well as on expert knowledge during the process of planning.The results of the study contributes to a better understanding of why and for what purposesurban forests are important for the city dwellers..
En nation av emigranter: En studie över den salvadoranska statens förhållande till sin emigrerande befolkning samt konsekvenserna för deras medborgarskap.
Around the world governments reach out to their emigrant population, embracingthem as part of the nation, expecting their economic contribution. The aim of thisthesis is to examine the political strategy and governmental activities of ElSalvador with the purpose to include emigrants in the nation building project. Themain question is what consequences this has for the significance of citizenship.This case study is based on the theoretical framework of external citizenshipwhich is a new fenomena emanating from states growing interest of theirexpanding diaspora. It divides external citizenship in two parts; a legal dimensionand a practiced identity.I find that as the economic potential of salvadoreans abroad increase, theSalvadorean government makes institutional changes to tie emigrants to thenationstate. This results in the possibility for salvadoreans to remain citizens intheir country of origin, practicing their salvadorean identity at the same time asthey naturalize abroad.

Betydelsen av prokainets nedbrytning i plasma vid penicillinchock hos häst :
The use of intramuscular injections of procaine penicillin G (bensylpenicillin procaine) in the horse is now and then associated with acute adverse reactions (penicillin-chock). The etiology is not yet clearly understood, but the theories are several. One possibility is that it can be caused by procaine toxicity. Procaine penicillin G is a salt which is quickly dissolved in plasma. Procaine is then metabolized by plasmaesterases to non-toxic metabolites, p-aminobenzoic acid (PABA) and diethylaminoethanol.
Omloppstid för returenheter
Cycle time has a direct influence on number of returnable crates needed and therefore a crucial parameter for cost structure and pricing of the user fec in the pool system.For providing the growing market, number of crates has to increase as well as the utilization of existing crates. To accomplish this aim, cycle time for the whole supply chain has to be fully unravelled and understand.The purpose is to map cycle time and stock movements, to see how, where and when crates are being used in the supply chain. The goal is to make a method of cycle time calculation, together with suggestions of improving the pool system and decrease cycle time.The study has been a combination of qualitative and quantitative research and comprises the three biggest wholesalers in Sweden; ICA, Coop and Axfood. Furthermore have 65 grocery shops, connected to the wholesalers, been investigated and mapped.The study has come to a conclusion that cycle time for an average returnable crate is 19 days. The full-size and half-size crates have a bit longer cycle time, 21-22 days, while Dual Height-crates and shallow haif-size crates have 17-18 days.
Mjölkraskorsningar i avelsvärdering av tillväxt hos svenska köttrastjurar
The concerning issue of declining number of hunters in North America is also apparent in Europe and Sweden. When the bulk of research found on human dimensions and hunting participation has almost exclusively been done in the United States, this report seeks to add to the needed knowledge on a national level focusing on the causes of hunter declines related to social factors within Sweden. Using hunter data reaching from commune, county to National level, this report describes the correlation between a number of variables and the hunting participation in Sweden.The typical Swedish hunter lives in an area with low population density, the person usually has higher education, the living situation is stable with no recent moving and there is relatively good access to forest land. Persons with weaker connection to the Swedish culture such as foreign citizens, people with foreign background and people born outside ?the Nordic countries? are less likely to start hunt or participate in hunting.A strong relationship was found between the favorite game, moose (Alces alces), and the amount of hunters participating in the hunting.
Framställningar av svenskhet i media : - En diskursanalys av tidningsartiklar om invandring och integration
The media plays a key role in constructing identities and categories, as its messages influence the way we understand the world. In the debate on integration issues, categories such as ?Swede? and ?immigrant? are often treated as obvious and unproblematic. ?Swedish?, being the norm, is seldom defined and frequently appears with subtlety. This paper set out to study what characterizes Swedishness in newspaper articles on integration issues, and how it is represented in relations to immigrants.
Känslig för känslor? : En kvantitativ studie av ett känsloregleringsperspektiv på oro och Generaliserat ångestsyndrom.
Forskning har sedan länge visat att oro dämpar upplevelsen av känslor och fysiologiskt påslag, men inte varför vissa personer har större behov av att dämpa sina känslor än andra. Nyare teorier om Generaliserat ångestsyndrom (GAD) indikerar att det är svårigheter med känsloreglering som är kännetecknande för diagnosen, då personer med GAD i högre grad än andra antas uppleva sina känslor som aversiva, och oro blir ett symptom på detta. Studien bekräftar en stark koppling mellan oro och svårigheter med känsloreglering i en studentpopulation , mätt med hjälp av tre självskattningsformulär, där det framkommer att ju större svårigheter med känsloreglering en person har, desto mer oroar sig denne. Den specifika känsloregleringssvårighet som i studien har störst koppling till oro och GAD är ?bristande strategier att handskas med känslorna?.
