Background: Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) includes Crohn´s disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UK). The diseases are chronic and have a pattern of relapses interspersed with relatively symptom-free periods. Common symptoms during relapse are diarrhea, abdominal pain and weight loss. Since you have IBD for life it is important to find ways to relate to and cope with the disease. In that process a nurse can be of great help.Aim: The purpose of this literature review was to increase the understanding of how adult patients with inflammatory bowel disease experience their daily lives.  Method: The method used was a literature review.

Syftet är att genom kvalitativa intervjuer undersöka fyra lärares föreställningar om vad elevinflytande innebär för elevernas motivation och hur de menar att de arbetar med elevinflytande i spanskundervisning i årskurs sju. Resultaten visar att lärarna arbetar på ett traditionellt sätt i spanska. De gör likadana aktiviteter i spanskundervisningen, de vill att eleverna ska lära sig ?ett levande språk?. Intervjupersonerna menar vidare att variation, läromedlet och att låta elever välja stoff samt arbetssätt är viktiga för elevers engagemang.

A growing population together with a change in food habits to a more diverse diet containing more animal products such as meat and milk makes the possibility to produce and sell products of cattle a growing market. And at the same time there is an ongoing debate about global warming, where raising cattle is questioned due to their high production of enteric methane. To be able to raise animals in a more environmental friendly way and at the same time improve productivity in a developing country such as Vietnam would be favorable. The use of feed additives with high electron affinity could decrease the methane production and at the same time improve the gross energy digested. Nitrate and Sulfur are both good electron acceptors, but due to its toxic effects the use of nitrate in feed has been neglected.

I Idrottens betydelse för elever i skolan undersöker Andreas Jönsson och Viktor von Eggers Patron hur idrottstimmarna och dess betydelse har förändrats ur ett större perspektiv. Det empiriska materialet är baserat på lärarintervjuer och elevenkäter. Lärarintervjuerna har varit i fokus då lärarna har år av erfarenhet i och större inblick i ämnet. På så sätt kan de ge sin bild om idrottens betydelse, exempelvis hur eleverna påverkas av idrotten över en längre tidsperiod, vilket eleverna inte alltid kan göra. Undersökningens frågeställning är: Hur påverkar idrott och hälsa barnens övriga studier? Hur kan idrott och hälsa påverka elevernas koncentrationsförmåga samt deras inlärningsförmåga? Räcker det att ha idrott & hälsa på schemat för att det ska ha någon effekt eller krävs det en viss mängd av det? Kan skolan påverka barnens hälsa genom idrott och hälsa? Resultaten visar att om eleverna har mycket idrott på schemat höjs deras betyg i övriga ämnen samtidigt som det ökade deras inlärningsförmåga.

The purpose of this essay is to analyse and understand how branding can take place in a football organisation. Football clubs have for a long time been seen as non-profit organisations but since money have become a main factor also in football these days the organisations are more or less turning in to commercial businesses. Football organisations have for many years neglected the assets of actively contributing values to their brand. Despite that branding doesn't seem to be seen as important in football organisations as it is for real companies who spend a fortune of money on building strong brands, which makes us curious to find out how this approach can be developed also in football. We are also interested in what the characteristics are and which underlying factors that determines the choice of a football brand.

The aim of this Master?s thesis is to examine the retrieval performance of two search engines, Yahoo! News and Sesam, specialized on indexing news articles in Swedish. Thirty search questions were used in this study, divided into three different categories: domestic news, amusement and sport. Precision has been calculated both for the 30 search questions as a total and for the three categories as well. Precision was calculated at every DCV-level and then divided with the number of search questions used, in an attempt to reach an average measure.

During the last decades major changes has occurred at the financial markets, meaning an increasing supply and a greater variation of financial instruments. The saving habits of the Swedish people have gone from traditional bank deposits to investments in equities, funds and bonds.

The contents of the thesis can be described as three bricks, representing the survey questions.

I denna studie undersöks orsaker till att vissa elever inte är aktiva i någon föreningsidrott samt hur idrott och hälsa kan få fler elever intresserade och engagerade i föreningsidrotten. Fokus har varit att undersöka de föreningsinaktiva elevernas perspektiv och hur deras motivation i ämnet idrott och hälsa ser ut.Studien utgår från strukturerade intervjuer med tio elever samt en svensk version avSport motivation scale och Academic motivation scale för att tydliggöra elevernas motivation. Resultatet visar att de elever som inte är aktiva i en idrottsförening har låg motivation till idrott och hälsa. De anledningar som framkommer till att eleverna inte är delaktiga i någon idrottsförening är främst att de inte har något intresse eller har andra intressen. Även tidsbrist och för seriös satsning inom idrottsföreningarna uppges som orsak till att inte delta i en idrottsförening.

Background: Traditional oral health education is seldom enough in order for dental care personnel to motivate their patients to good, long-lasting oral health care habits and there is a need for evaluation of other more efficient methods. One of these methods is motivational interviewing. An overview of its origin, definition, theoretical background and practical methods is given by way of introduction. Aim: The aim of the investigation was to review studies that had used motivational interviewing in order to obtain oral health, focusing on prevention and treatment of gingivitis, periodontitis and dental caries. Method: Systematic review. A search question was run through the databases ASSIA, ERIC, PsycINFO, Social Services Abstracts, Sociological Abstracts and PubMed. The articles were reviewed based on defined inclusion and exclusion criteria. Results: Five publications (based on three studies) met the inclusion criteria.

En idrottsförenings ekonomi är idag avgörande för hur den sportsliga verksamheten kan bedrivas. Många föreningar måste jobba hårt för att få verksamheten att gå runt. Ett sätt att arbeta på för att få in pengar är att locka företag att sponsra verksamheten.Denna studie ställer upp en hypotes för Uppsalaidrotten om ett linjärt samband mellan föreningarnas synlighet hos publik och i media gentemot deras sponsringsintäkter. Studien undersöker sedan om denna hypotes stämmer genom att studera tre idrottsföreningar valda utefter deras synlighet i media och hos publik samt tre företag som sponsrar Uppsalaidrotten. Den insamlade informationen har analyserats med hjälp av en analysmodell baserat på teorier om sponsring.
