Sahlgrenska Academy at University of GothenburgDepartment of Department of Internal Medicine and Clinical NutritionAbstractTitle: Does coffee consumption affect the risk of stroke?Author: Jenny KällSupervisor: Heléne Bertéus ForslundExaminer: Anna WinkvistProgramme: Dietician study programme, 180/240 ECTSType of paper: Examination paper, 15 hpDate: May 22, 2012___________________________________________________________________________Background: The widespread consumption of coffee worldwide makes this drink interesting to study from a public health perspective. Even minor health effects may be important for the whole population. Stroke patients require the largest number of days spent in hospitals and nursing homes than any other medical condition group. Risk factors for stroke include smoking, high alcohol intake, physical inactivity, hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, high waist-hip ratio and diabetes.

This thesis deal with tick burden on roe deer (Capreolus capreolus) fawns, in relation to age, weight, hind foot length, and as well as to vegetation and habitat on bed sites. Roe deer fawns (N = 25) were captured from May 27 to June 27. Samples of ticks were collected and tick burden were estimated. Of all sampled ticks the nymphs and adults were Ixodes ricinus, while the larvae were not identified. 4.4 % of the sampled ticks were larvae, 55.0 % nymphs, 26.8 % adult females, and 13.8 % adult males.

I vårt examensarbete skrev vi allenast om elever som redan har diagnos ADHD. Vi valde att undersöka och studera de pedagogiska strategier som lärare använde sig av gällande läs-, skriv- och talutveckling hos elever som har ADHD. För att anpassa skoluppgifterna till elever som har ADHD fanns det många fakta, tips och idéer. Våra frågeställningar handlade om läs-, skriv- och talutveckling, undervisning, klassrumsmiljö och utbildning. Litteraturen som vi har läst poängterar vikten av att vuxna, såsom lärare och föräldrar, skall utbilda och vidareutbilda sig.

The purpose of this thesis is to carry out a qualitative study of the perceptions of language teachers as to their role in the teaching of values and morals to pupils. Five language teachers have been interviewed about their perceptions of how values are taught and their role therein. The interviews serve to investigate the reality of teaching values to pupils in a Swedish secondary school and the work involved in this on-going process, this being with a view to having a better understanding of just how important a role the teaching of values plays in the daily working life of a teacher. Terms such as fundamental values and morals can be difficult to define as they are highly personal and can differ from person to person depending on one?s background, experiences and family circumstances, for example.

Internet har under de senaste åren blivit en starkare kanal för kommunikation som ökat explosionsartat och även öppnat upp nya kommunikationsvägar för bankerna. Kunder som tidigare varit svåra att bygga upp en relation med kan idag bli nåbara på ett enklare sätt medhjälp av den nya kanalen. Segmentering används idag av banker i allt större utsträckning för att kunna identifiera olika typer av konsumenter för att mer effektivt kunna kommunicera med sina kunder och skapa relationer med dem.Syftet med uppsatsen är att undersöka om svenska storbanker använder sig av relationsmarknadsföring via Internet på ett framgångsrikt sätt mot segmentet unga vuxna i åldern 18-26 år. Studien har utifrån intervjuer med segmentet unga vuxna, intervjuer med en av de svenska storbankerna samt kompletterande undersökningar om ungdomars Internetvanor uppnått följande slutsatser.De flesta ungdomar i segmentet gör inget aktivt val av bank utan låter faktorer som bekvämlighet och enkelhet styra, vilket förklarar varför de flesta har valt samma bank som sina föräldrar. De flesta har heller inte haft några problem med sin bank, då de av naturligaskäl inte heller haft så stor kontakt med banken eller haft specifika behov.

Bakgrund: Enligt WHO beräknas det vara 448 miljoner nya fall av STI årligen hos personer i åldrarna 15-49 år. Under de senaste tio åren har STI ökat kraftigt.  Det är framför allt ungdomar och unga vuxna som drabbas. Attityd- och beteendeförändringar bidrar till fler partners och fler tillfälliga partners. Idag finns ett annat synsätt på relationer vilket leder till en ökad risk för spridning av STI.

Many wood living insects are considered threatened by modern forestry due to the reduction in amount of dead wood. During the last decade various methods have been used to enhance the quantity of dead wood in managed forests. However little is known how and if these methods are aiding saproxylic insects. The threatened tenebrionid beetle, Upis ceramboides, is already extinct in southern Sweden. It develops in white rotted dead birch (Betula spp) and requires sun-exposed sites.

AbstractAt Saltvikens copperindustry, which is located in the municipality of Oskarshamn, copper was refined from sulphiteore some hundred years ago. The ore underwent several steps in the process before the final product was received. These steps all had an influence on the environment through discharge of heavy metals. The area where the copper industry was located is today considered to be of specific national interest due to its valuable nature and cultural values, as well as its value for recreational outdoor activities. Therefore, it is important to determine the present level of contamination and if any transport of contaminants have occurred, and to identify the risks that are associated with the site both at present and in a longer time perspective.Thirtynine soil samples and 16 sediment samples have been analyzed.

The purpose of this essay is to shed light upon the ecumenical work that has been done between the Church of Sweden and the Mission Covenant Church of Sweden. The recent years of work have led to a recommendation for a certain degree of fellowship to be established between those churches. This proposal as well as other documents are analysed in the essay from an ecclesio-logical point of view, to find out how the Church of Sweden looks upon itself in meeting another church.To structure the material, the essay has been subdivided into seven parts that is related to ecclesiology. In those seven chapters the positions of the Church of Sweden and the Mission Covenant Church of Sweden are given individually as well as in common. Questions like the im-portance of dioceses, local congregations or parishes and the national level are described.

CODA (Children of deaf adults) innebär att man är hörande själv men har en eller två teckenspråkiga föräldrar. CODA-elever har teckenspråk som hemspråk och de lever mittemellan den döva världen och den hörande. Det skulle kunna liknas vid att växa upp i en invandrarfamilj med en annan kultur och ett annat språk hemma än vad de har i skolan. (Fredäng 2003). Det saknas beprövade metoder för vilka insatser som kan behövas kring CODA elever i skolan.

Då parförhållandet utvecklas från att bestå av två vuxna till att få barn tillsammans och blir en familj förändras livet för alltid. För de flesta par innebär föräldraskapet glädje och att barnet berikar deras liv, men för många parrelationer innebär det även en stor utmaning. Det finns mycket begränsat med forskning i Norden om hur föräldrapar har det i sin relation och vad som gör att vissa par klarar av omställningen till föräldraskapet bättre än andra. Syftet med arbetet var att beskriva föräldrars upplevelse av parrelationen när första gemensamma barnet var fyra år. Metoden som användes var kvalitativ innehållsanalys för att analysera det insamlade materialet som utgjordes av svaret på en öppen fråga ingående i en enkätstudie.

Befolkningen i dagens samhälle blir allt äldre. Många individer drabbas av någon typ av demens, exempelvis Alzheimers sjukdom, då denna sjukdom är starkt knuten till hög ålder. En demenssjukdom för med sig många svårigheter, däribland drabbas minne, språk samt kommunikation. I Sverige idag finns många yrkesgrupper representerade kring den som har insjuknat i demens men sällan finns någon som har djupgående kunskaper om de språkliga och kommunikativa svårigheter som en individ, till följd av sjukdomen får. I början av Alzheimers sjukdom är de språkliga förändringarna knappt märkbara men med tiden tilltar de språkliga svårigheterna.

Manystudies have investigated the effects on different carbohydrate intakes on training performance. Thescientific researchers have met a consensus in the fact that a higher intake of carbohydratescompared to a lower carbohydrate intake improves athletic performance. Lately, the increasedinterest in low carbohydrate diets has despite these recommendations gained followers globally.ObjectiveTo determine if a higher carbohydrate intake results in a better endurance performance, comparedto a lower carbohydrate intake, for adult males and females, measured as time to exhaustion, totaldistance covered and power output/cadence. To be able to give nutrition recommendations toendurance athletes based on the current scientific evidence and identify if there is need for furtherresearch in this area.Search strategyThe databases used for the literature search were PubMed and Scopus.

The discussion about organic and fair trade products has been a big issue during the last few years. Despite an extensive knowledge about the environmental problems and a willingness to do something about it, the consumers are not always acting that way. Children do imitate their parents and other adults at an early age, so if the role models do not begin to act, think and dress ethically correct, neither will the children. Three problems have been identified out of the discussion. They relate to the questions of how older school children and parents of younger school children are taking sides regarding the organic/fair trade clothes and how existing trends in the society as well as those in fashion contexts influence their attitudes and consumer behaviour.
