Sahlgrenska Academyat University of GothenburgDepartment of Internal Medicine and Clinical NutritionAbstractTitle: Does low fat dairy products reduce blood pressure?Author: Emma Bergman and Naman LimaniSupervisor: Lena HulthénExaminer: Anna WinkvistProgramme: Dietician study programme, 180/240 ECTSType of paper: Examination paper, 15 hpDate: May 26, 2014Background: It is estimated that at least a third of the population in Sweden have a high blood pressure with genetics, unhealthy diet and physical inactivity as the main contributing causes. High blood pressure is one of the greatest risk factors to develop cardiovascular diseases, which is the leading cause of death worldwide. Milk is a nutritional food product and previous research suggests that low fat dairy products may have blood pressure lowering effect.Objective: The aim was to examine the scientific basis of how low fat dairy products affect blood pressure.Search strategy: Twelve searches were conducted on PubMed and Scopus, where the chosen search terms were combined to produce a broad search as possible in the particular area. The search terms used were dairy, dairy products, milk, blood pressure and hypertension.Selection criteria: Studies on normotensive or hypertensive individuals who received low fat dairy products were included.

Alfa-linolensyra från linfröolja och dess påverkan på blodtrycket -En systematisk översiktsartikel

Sahlgrenska Academy at University of Gothenburg Department of Internal Medicine and Clinical NutritionAbstractTitle: Alpha-linolenic acid from flaxseed oil and effects on blood pressure ? A systematic reviewAuthor: Christine Hårdfelt och Liduina van SitterenSupervisor: Helen LindqvistExaminer: Anna WinkvistProgramme: Dietician study programme, 180/240 ECTSType of paper: Examination paper, 15 hpDate: April 9th, 2014Background: High blood pressure is strongly associated with an increased risk of developing cardiovascular disease, particularly stroke. ALA-fatty acids have previously been associated with decreased blood pressure. Flaxseed oil is very rich in these fatty acids and has also been highlighted as an affordable and sustainable source.Objective: To investigate whether ALA-fatty acids from flaxseed oil may affect blood pressure in people with high risk for cardiovascular disease.Search strategy: Two searches in PubMed and Scopus were performed. The sample was specified by using specific keywords.Selection criteria: The criteria for inclusion of studies required that flaxseed oil was compared with a control and that blood pressure was measured as an endpoint.

Sluta drömma, fram med vardagen! en analys av den realistiska strömningens idéer i fyra svenska barnböcker utgivna mellan åren 1965 1975

The aim of this Masters thesis is to investigate if the ideas of the realistic tale in Swedish literature for children can be identified by examining four books for children. The four books are all published between the years 1965 to 1975. The methods used to identify the ideas of the realistic tale are the concepts of alienation and antiestablishment. By using the theory of true and false consciousness represented by Diderichsen and the theory of Socialisation by Giddens, two questions are addressed. The questions are if the ideas of the realistic tale develop a true or a false consciousness.

Laktatnivån i blodet : en prognostisk markör för tikar med pyometra?

The purpose of the present study was to explore if blood lactate levels are increased in bitches with pyometra, and if the lactate measurement could be used as a prognostic indicator and to determine outcome. The present study included 16 bitches with pyometra that were admitted to the University Animal Hospital, Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences, Uppsala, Sweden. For comparison, a control group consisting of 14 healthy staffowned bitches was also evaluated. In all bitches, a physical examination was performed and blood samples for analysis of haematological and biochemical parameters were obtained. In all bitches with pyometra, surgical ovariohysterectomy was performed and a uterine sample for bacteriological culture and identification was collected.

Evaluation of a method for determinationof glutathionereductase activity inerythrocytes

Glutathione (GSH) is a molecule that consists of three amino acids: glutamic acid, cysteine and glycine. GSH has several important functions: to protect cells from free radicals, reactive oxygen species and oxidative stress. GSH exists in a reduced form, GSH, and in an oxidized dimeric form, glutationdisulfid, GSSG. The enzymes glutathionereductase (GR) catalyses the reduction of GSSG back to GSH. Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) is required as a coenzyme in the reaction.

Råda bot på öm fot

There is something magical about shoes?They can create an irresistible desire or be the one thing that we want to get rid of the most at the end of a long day. When people by shoes the chose more out of appearance rather then comfort. The result is a fact. The feet feel tired and soar after a couple of hours and the only thoughts are about the aching feet that firmly object to the way there being treated.

Traktkilars inverkan på hovens glukos- och laktatmetabolism :

The equine hoof is often manipulated in purpose to achieve a better stride or to reduce the weight on damaged tissue. The living tissue in the hoof can?t store energy as glycogen and is therefore depending on a continuous supply of glucose for its energy production. The purpose of the study was to determine if wedging (i.e. elevating) the heel could influence the hooves glucose and lactate consumption/production. Five standardbred horses were trained to trot on a treadmill without getting physical or mentally tired.

Evaluation of indirect blood pressure measurement, plasma endothelin-1 and serum cortisol in clinically healthy horses

Equine metabolic syndrome (EMS) it?s a clinical condition that includes obesity, regional adiposity, insulin resistance (IR) and laminitis. A similar syndrome exists in human medi-cine, the metabolic syndrome (MS), were systemic hypertension also is a prominent fea-ture. The systemic hypertension seen in humans with MS is partly due to a vascular endo-thelial dysfunction with an enhanced endothelin-1 (ET-1) mediated vasoconstriction. There are indications that systemic hypertension might be a feature in EMS as well but if ET-1 is involved in the development of the systemic hypertension in horses is not known.

Möten mellan levande och döda : En semiotisk analys av tv-serien True Blood

AbstraktSyftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka hur genus representeras i HBO`s tv-serieTrue Blood och hur denna porträttering står i kontrast till normer i samhället. Viss fokus ligger även på relationen mellan genus och etnicitet.Vampyrerna i populärkulturen har genomgått en stor förändring under de senaste seklerna vilket diskuteras genom tidigare forskning av Anna Höglund och Katarina Harrisson Lindbergh. Detta hjälper till att ge en bakgrundsbild av de fiktiva varelser som står i centrum för seriens handling.Connells teorier om genus används för att definiera genus och fastställa samhällets bild av hur en man och en kvinna ska vara. Detta kompletteras med Fiskes forskning om hur mening skapas samt hur tv-industrin framställer kön och etnicitet.Baserat på ett antal avsnitt från seriens första säsong identifieras ett antal huvudkaraktärer, två män och två kvinnor, som sedan studeras noggrannare under utvalda scener där de samspelar med varandra. Analysen sker genom en semiotisk analys, med hjälp av Roland Barthes begrepp om denotation och konnotation, för att identifiera vilka egenskaper som utmärker männen och kvinnorna i serien. Dessa egenskaper ställs sedan emot det teoretiska ramverket för att fastställa hur väl seriens genusmönster överensstämde med verkligheten.Ett antal gemensamma teman identifierades och analysen visar att det finns samband mellan den teoretiska ramen och resultaten funna i serien.

Oäkta Goodwill: Den oäkta goodwilldelens effekt på nedskrivningar av koncerngoodwill

Since January 2005 new rules have been introduced from the International Financial Reporting Standards for accounting of Business Combinations. Goodwill, which is the difference between the purchase price and the value of the net assets in an acquired firm, should no longer be amortized but should instead be treated as an object for yearly impairment tests. Nevertheless, there are many companies making the tests but not impairing goodwill. The theoretical frame of reference looks at goodwill from its two parts; true goodwill and false goodwill. False goodwill is defined as a measurement bias and constitutes a certain percentage of the operating net assets.

Extrapoäng till de som skriker "han är inte true" : en netnografisk diskursanalys om gother och deras symboler

The aim of this study is to identify and analyze the discourse within a gothic online community and examine how they use significant symbols to create themselves as goths and being part of a community. In order to achive this aim, eleven different forum threads were examined to amalyze how the goths created their significant symbols within the online community and through interaction with each other. The results implies that the discourse within the community describes the goths as either true or false goths and that it is important to maintain this boundary.

The Innovation Process - from Invention to Innovation: A case study of the company True

Syfte: Syftet med denna uppsats är att beskriva och förklara hur processen av att omvandla en invention till en innovation kan se ut. Detta genom att granska de olika steg som lyfts fram som centrala inom existerande teorier kring innovationsprocesser. Vidare syftar vi till att utifrån dessa teorier undersöka om de fullt ut kan användas för att förklara ett företags fall eller framgång vid en innovationsprocess. Metod: Vi har utfört en abduktiv fallstudie där vi samlat primärdata dels genom personliga intervjuer, dels via telefonintervjuer. Sekundärdata kommer från internet i form av de berörda företagens officiella hemsidor, samt presentationsmaterial från företaget True.

Kontinuerlig glukosmätning : en möjlighet för den svenska djursjukvården?

The purpose of this scientific essay is to evaluate if a continuous glucose monitoring system is something that can benefit Swedish animal health care. The study investigates if it is medically possible to use continuous glucose monitoring systems on dogs with an apparatus attached to their bodies. Furthermore, I try to establish whether this is possible in practice and how it could be done. The keywords used were diabetes mellitus, insulin, continuous glucose monitoring, blood glucose monitoring, dog, pet owner and animal nursing care. Furthermore, I wanted to find out if this system could be an alternative to currently established methods to measure the patient?s blood glucose level.
