Röster från långtidsarbetslösa: en kvalitativ studie av unga vuxnas upplevelser och hantering kring sin livssituation
Under vårterminen 2014 har vi arbetat kontinuerligt med ämnet långtidsarbetslösa unga vuxna. Detta forskningsområde är en aktuell debatterad fråga i dagens samhälle, och har varit intressant som fenomen att undersöka.Härmed vill vi tacka och rikta vår uppskattning till er som har bistått oss under studiens gång och gjort det möjligt för oss att genomföra samt färdigställa denna kandidatuppsats.Ett stort tack till Arbetsförmedlingen i Trollhättan, som stod för ett varmt mottagande och ett gott samarbete. Vi vill här särskilt rikta ett stort Tack till samtliga intervjudeltagare som så fint ställt upp och berätta om deras personliga erfarenheter gällande långtidsarbetslöshet. Vi anser att utan er hjälp, hade inte denna uppsats blivit av.Sist, men inte minst, ett varmt tack till vår handledare Yngve Mohlin, för hans positiva inställning och inspiration, samt för all konstruktiv kritik och pedagogiskt vägledande under hela processen.Vi har noggrant övervägt för- och nackdelar med att skriva denna studie tillsammans.

Urbana bomärken : människor och uttryck på drift
`When one does not have what one wants, one
must want what one has´: `I have had, you see,
to resort more and more to very small, almost
invisible pleasures, little extras....You´ve no idea
how great one becomes with these little details,
it´s incredible how one grows. ´
The aim of this master thesis is to find words and
expressions that can accompany city phenomenas
as well as the people wandering through the space
which is defiened as city. Through this tentative
search a new term was found namely Urban
Settler Marks. This term started a journey and an
attempt to theoretisize why people have a need for
various spaces to put their Urban Settlers Marks
onto. My focus was drawn to electrical boxes in
the urban environment because of their ambigious
nature.

Despite this, new research indicates that a higher BMI could be a protective factor for those with a chronic cardiovascular disease. This discovery is called the obesity paradox and could change the perception of patients' BMI in both public health and clinical work.Objective: The objective of this systematic review article is to examine the scientific evidence for the existence of the obesity paradox in chronic cardiovascular disease, i.e. if a BMI >25 kg/m2 is associated with lower mortality among adults with chronic cardiovascular disease.Search strategy: The databases used in the literature study were PubMed, Summon, Scopus and Cochrane. The keywords were: obesity paradox, cardiovascular, heart, male, BMI, intentional weight loss, cardiovascular mortality and mortality heart failure.Selection criteria: Studies, which had an adult population classified after BMI that suffered from chronic cardiovascular disease and had all-cause mortality and cardiovascular mortality as endpoints, were included.Data collection and analysis: Ten studies were included.

Förbättrad hållning kring axelleden genom funktionell träning - En studie på kontorsarbetande kvinnor
Eight out of ten Swedes has once in a while pain in the back, neck or shoulders. This often depends on inactivity and monotonous work under a long time. Pain affects us mentally since the body and mind affect each other, which can lead to an evil circle of pain and depression. A typical imbalance in an office worker with the arms in front of the body while working is that the muscles on the front of the trunk will be shortened, since they never work with their full length and become strong because of the constant use. On the other hand, the muscles on the back of the trunk will be weakened and elongated, since they are working in an extended and static position.

Construction consists of the following components: self confidence, hope, optimism and resilience.

Beröringens makt : En litteraturöversikt om hur vårdpersonal använder sig av beröring i omvårdnaden
Background: Human interaction by touch plays a central role for our health and well being throughout life. When people touch each other our bodies release a hormone called oxytocin into the bloodstream, this gives the body a soothing effect.

From biblical times and through to today human touch plays a central part of nursing.
