Data on the association between alcohol abuse and cancer morbidity are scarce in large cohorts of non-hospitalised alcoholic men and women. Of 18, 368 alcohol abusers who entered an outpatient clinic in Copenhagen during 1954-87, 18, 307 were followed and their cancer incidence was compared with that of the total Danish population. On average the 15, 214 men were observed for 12.9 years and the 3,

Postoperative morbidity after hysterectomy was studied prospectively in 229 consecutive patients in our departments. The incidence of alcohol abuse (> or = 60 gm of alcohol daily) and moderate drinking (between 25 and 60 gm of alcohol daily) was 6.5% for each. When compared with the moderate drinkers and the control group, the alcohol abusers developed significantly more complications (80% versus

Abstract Purpose: The purpose is to explore how consumer attitude are influenced by the use of female empowerment as part of a company's brand building process. Methodology: A qualitative case study, using focus group interviews. The paper has directed its focus towards the online D2C brands Estrid and Stronger. The focus groups consisted of the brands’ main target group, women aged 20-25. F

Water damage in homes and buildings can cause moisture problems such as mold growth and negative health effects for residents. The water damage from building services not only affects the indoor environment but leads to costs for society both in Sweden and other countries. This paper aims to make a cost analysis to attain an estimate of the cost of water damages to society. The analysis is based o

Background/Purpose: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Systemic inflammation, driven by cytokines such as TNF, IL-6 and IL-17A, has been implicated as a contributing factor to CVD development in RA. The objective of this study was to investigate the impact of 92 inflammatory proteins on the risk of CVD events in patients with early RA.Me

OBJECTIVE: To clarify, using an extended adoption design, the sources of parent-offspring transmission for anxiety disorder (AD) and its major subforms and their familial cross-generational relationship with major depression (MD). METHODS: Offspring (born 1960-1992) and their parents, from six family types (intact, not-lived-with biological father or mother, lived-with step-father or step-mother,

This study seeks to determine how elementary school teachers in Denmark versus Sweden experience their national school law when it comes to values within it. It also examines how Danish and Swedish teachers work to ensure motivation for learning and how they work to prepare their students for active democratic citizenship. This bachelor’s thesis is based upon a small qualitative analysis of six in

Affibody molecules constitute a class of small (7 kDa) scaffold proteins that can be engineered to have excellent tumor targeting properties. High reabsorption in kidneys complicates development of affibody molecules for radionuclide therapy. In this study, we evaluated the influence of the composition of cysteine-containing C-terminal peptide-based chelators on the biodistribution and renal reten

This paper derives from the twelve-hour costume-based ‘performative-walk’ Community Walk that locomoted through the central area of Copenhagen on June 29, 2020. The frame for Community Walk was a bright yellow costume that physically connected two wearers and the concept of ‘walking and talking’. ‘Walking’ was physically sensing the co-wearer through the costume and jointly navigating and negotiat

In line with recent trends in sociology of migration, the paper presents majorresearch findings on Swedish immigrant organizations (SIOs) and their labor marketintegration activities. Analyses of engagement in these activities are particularlyimportant as Sweden wrestles with significant problems of labor market marginalization, particularly among non-European migrants. Drawing on official dataand

Reliable methods for estimating financial return volatility are crucial in many areas of trading and investing. Two such frameworks, the GARCH and SV, have been of particular interest to academics and practitioners alike. The GARCH model describes the variance of the current innovation as a function of the actual sizes of the previous innovations. In contrast, the stochastic volatility model descr

Folkparkerna förstås idag ofta som baser för arbetarrörelsens kulturella projekt. Men allra tydligast under parkrörelsens första tre decennier hade de även en fundamental politiska roll. I denna presentation fokuserar vi på denna roll i ljuset av storstrejken 1909, där parkerna spelade en viktig roll för arbetarrörelsen som tydliga politiska platser på offentlighetens kant. När många andra platser

This thesis presents the temperature dependence of InGaAs Nanowire (NW) metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs) grown at two different temperatures. The two different growths represent one sample having nanowires which have a mixed crystal structure (showing stacking faults) and one sample with nanowires of pure crystal structure (without stacking faults). The sample with a pu

Retrospective studies suggest increased postoperative morbidity among alcohol misusers. We have prospectively studied the risk associated with alcohol intake among patients undergoing surgery. We investigated 15 persons who required colorectal surgery and who were drinking at least five Danish drinks per day. These patients were matched for sex, nutrition, age, weight, cardio-pulmonary disease, di

What kind of insights can anthropology offer to the study of IOs? This essay illustrates this via an inductive theorization on the effectiveness of organizational aesthetics.

Lignin is found in all biomass and is an abundant natural source of aromatic compounds. It has the potential to serve as a renewable raw material for a variety of chemicals currently derived from fossil fuel sources such as muconic acid, an important platform chemical. Kraft lignin is a waste stream from the pulp and paper industry. Upon depolymerization of softwood-derived lignin, aromatic compou

How well can modern wearable eye trackers cope with head and body movement? To investigate this question, we asked four participants to stand still, walk, skip, and jump while fixating a static physical target in space. We did this for six different eye trackers. All the eye trackers were capable of recording gaze during the most dynamic episodes (skipping and jumping). The accuracy became worse a
