  2. 1. Children with juvenile idiopathic arthritis : health-related quality of life and participation in healthcare encounters

    Author : Veronica Lundberg; Anncristine Fjellman-Wiklund; Catharina Eriksson; Torbjörn Lind; Rebecka Janols; Eva Broström; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Child; Gender; Healthcare professionals; Health-related quality of life; Informant discrepancies; Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis; Parents; Participation; Pediatrics; Qualitative; Questionnaire; pediatrik; Pediatrics;

    Abstract : Background: Growing up with Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (JIA) can be associated with functional limitations, feelings of being different, and an impaired health-related quality of life (HRQOL). Children’s and parents’ reports of child HRQOL may differ. READ MORE

  4. 2. Quality of Life in Patients with Endocrine Gastrointestinal Tumours

    Author : Gunnel Larsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Medical sciences; Endocrine gastrointestinal tumours; health-related quality of life; psychosocial; function; importance-satisfaction discrepancies; MEDICIN OCH VÅRD; MEDICINE; MEDICIN; omvårdnadsforskning med medicinsk inriktning; Caring Sciences;

    Abstract : The overall aim of this thesis is to investigate health-related quality of life (HRQoL), anxiety and depression in patients with endocrine gastrointestinal (GI) tumours. Patient as well as staff perceptions were assessed. HRQoL was studied with the EORTC QLQ-C30, and anxiety and depression with the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale. READ MORE

  5. 3. Discrepancy between pregnancy dating methods – correlates and outcomes

    Author : Merit Kullinger; Alkistis Skalkidou; Helle Kieler; Karin Källén; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; pregnancy; gestational age; ultrasound; last menstrual period; Obstetrik och gynekologi; Obstetrics and Gynaecology;

    Abstract : With the introduction of obstetric ultrasound there has been a shift from last menstrual period-based to ultrasound-based estimation of gestational age. The choice of the method and timing of pregnancy dating is important because it can affect dating precision and perinatal outcomes. READ MORE

    Abstract : The five different K -> 3 Pi and the three K -> 2 Pi decays are calculated in Chiral Perturbation Theory. The calculation is done using different approximations, to study whether this changes the result significantly. First the isospin approximation is used. Discrepancies are then found between theory and experiment. READ MORE
