Popular Abstract in Swedish En majoritet av sk förlossningsskador med tecken på syrebrist i hjärnan uppstår troligen inte i samband med förlossning utan inträffar under graviditeten, ofta av okänt ursprung. Förlossningen är dock en stressituation med ökat krav på god blod- och syretillförsel till fostret. Övervakning med kardiotokografi (CTG) under förlossningen har inte påtagligt förändrat antaleThe studies upon which this thesis is based were designed to evaluate normal fetal and neonatal adaptation and the effects of obstetrical interventions during labor and delivery on fetal and neonatal cerebral circulation. Non-invasive Doppler ultrasound was used to record blood flow velocities from the middle cerebral artery (MCA) both antenatally from the fetus, and from the newborn in the early

The aim of this thesis was to study maternal emotional impact on the fetus and on pregnancy outcome. The thesis comprises five papers, which emanate from a prospective study regarding life situation, the experience of pregnancy, anxiety (Spielberger State-Trait Anxiety),and life events in nulliparous women, conducted in Malmö during 1988-1989. Examinations of fetal hemo-dynamics, fetal movements,

MASTER (MAnaging Speeds of Traffic on European Roads) aims to provide recommendations for speed management strategies and policies and to elaborate guidelines for the development of innovative speed management tools. Within the framework of the project, field trials with a car equipped with a speed limiter were carried out in three “regional typical” European countries: Sweden, the Netherlands, an

Popular Abstract in Swedish EG-fördragets regler om varors fria rörlighet är ett centralt område inom de Europeiska gemenskapernas rättsordning. Detta rättsområdet har stor betydelse i det praktiska rättslivet, såväl för offentlig förvaltning som för enskilda företag. I denna bok behandlas spörsmål rörande EG-fördragets regler om icke-tariffära handelshinder (artiklarna 30, 34 och 36). Ända sedanThis thesis concerns the Articles 30, 34 and 36 of the EC-Treaty and conflicts of competence between the Community and the Member States. It deals especially with the delimitation between community concerns and national concerns in the field of non-tariff barriers to trade in community law. A new perspective concerning the application of Articles 30 and 34 of the EC-Treaty is introduced. It is arg

Popular Abstract in Swedish Den föreliggande doktorsavhandlingen handlar om en kärnfysikalisk modell, kallad cranking-modellen, för beräkningar av egenskaper hos snabbt roterande atomkärnor. I modellen tvingas ett deformerat (icke-klotformat) kraftfält att rotera kring en axel genom masscentrum, samtidigt som partiklarna i atomkärnan, protonerna och neutronerna, rör sig i sina s.k. banor inuti denThe nuclear model for three dimensional cranking is extended to include a generalization of the Strutinski renormalization procedure from principal axis cranking to cranking about an tilted axis. A new computer code has been written for realistic, full-scale calculations within the three dimensional cranking model. The code is developed for calculations to produce output of high precision to allow

Creation and adoption of corporate policies requires significant commitment of scarce senior management resources. In the absence of processes and tools, convergence upon final policy and may not be achieved in a timely manner. Significant similarities between policy and requirements documents suggest that requirements engineering techniques could be used to generate policy. However, neither evide

Popular Abstract in English Psychotropic pharmaceuticals include various groups of chemicals that have been designed to affect neurochemistry in human consumers resulting in changes in cognition, mood, and/or behavior; many target specific receptors and subsequently alter neurotransmitter levels in the central nervous system. The use of pharmaceuticals by consumers results in the release of these Psychotropic pharmaceuticals have been shown to exert a variety of sublethal effects on non-target organisms, even at low concentrations found in the environment (ng/L to µg/L); hence, the aim of my research has been to determine the individual-level effects of psychotropic pharmaceuticals (the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors sertraline and fluoxetine, and the β-blocker propranolol) on beh

In Early Scandinavian "under" was used as a preposition with the local meaning 'under', 'below' and possibly also (as in German) 'among', 'between'. During the Middle Ages the preposition also aquired the temporal meaning 'during'. It is discussed whether and how the new meaning can be explained from one of the original local meanings.

The grocery retail industry, with its large product volumes, low margins and fierce competition, is constantly seeking efficiency improvements in its supply chain. The grocery retail industry uses an immense amount of packaging and is directly affected by packaging logistics activities. There is, therefore, a potential for efficiency improvements in the grocery retail supply chain through the inte

Intelligent transport information systems (TIS) are one of the most rapidly emerging applications of wireless vehicular communications using DSRC/WAVE technology. A core function in a TIS is the estimation of traffic density using beacons transmitted by individual vehicles, subsequently used for purposes such as traffic light control or incident detection. In this paper, we conduct an in-depth stu

Popular Abstract in Swedish Vattengråsuggan Asellus aquaticus är ett väldigt vanligt ryggradslöst djur i många typer av svenska vatten. Den kan bli över 10 mm stor och äter allt från dött organiskt material till levande alger och växter. Färgen hos gråsuggan kan variera mycket mellan olika miljöer. Den är oftast mörk men kan även vara nästan vit i underjordiska grottpopulationer. Jag har studerat Pigmentation in the freshwater isopod Asellus aquaticus differed between two habitats. Asellus were lighter pigmented in stands of submerged stonewort vegetation, than in nearby reed stands. Moreover, Asellus pigmentation became lighter with time in recently established stonewort stands. Diet or pigment adjustment had minor influence on pigmentation and mating was random with respect to pigmentati
