    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Rehabilitation; Spinal Cord Injuries; International Classification of Functioning; Disability and Health ICF ; Aging; Depression; Exercise; Activities of Daily Living; Adaptation; Psychological; Sense of Coherence;

    Abstract : As a result of advances in healthcare and rehabilitation, many people with spinal cord injury (SCI) have lived several decades with their injury. Knowledge of living with long-term SCI into older age is limited, despite an increased focus on aging with SCI in research and clinical practice. READ MORE

  2. 2. Assessment of cattle and pig welfare at stunning in commercial abattoirs

    Author : Sophie Atkinson; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Keywords : LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : This thesis aimed to develop and implement a standardised assessment for stun quality for use in commercial pig and cattle abattoirs to protect animal welfare. A stun quality protocol identified and rated symptoms signifying recovery risk and level of concern for inferior animal welfare. READ MORE

  3. 3. Pituitary autoantibodies in endocrine disorders

    Author : Sophie Bensing; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Lymphocytic hypophysitis; hypopituitarism; empty sella syndrome; APS 1; autoantibodies; autoantigen; Secretogranin II; TDRD6.;

    Abstract : Autoimmune endocrine disorders are characterised by the development of autoantibodies to specific autoantigens in the target organs. Lymphocytic hypophysitis (LyH) is a disease characterised by inflammation of the pituitary gland, often resulting in hypopituitarism. The aetiology of LyH is considered to be autoimmune. READ MORE

    Abstract : Aim: The objective of the thesis was to describe the most common causes of substandard care during labour contributing to severe asphyxia or neonatal death, to study risk factors related to asphyxia associated with substandard care and to explore the occurrence of substandard care during labour. Background: There are about 100 000 infants born every year in Sweden. READ MORE

  5. 5. Asymmetric Formation and Isomerization of Three-Membered Rings : Catalyst Development and Evaluation

    Author : Sophie Bertilsson; Tobias Rein; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Chemistry; allylic alcohol; α-amino acid derivative; aza-Diels-Alder reaction; aziridination; cyclopropanation; desymmetrization; epoxide rearrangement; kinetic resolution; lithium amide; rhodium-carboxylate; Kemi; Chemistry; Kemi; organisk kemi; Organic Chemistry;

    Abstract : Enantiopure α-amino acid derivatives were prepared using a protocol which allows for highly controlled regio- and chemoselectivity in the hydrogenation/ hydrogenolysis of aza-Diels-Alder adducts. One of the resulting α-amino esters, (1S,3R,4R)-2-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane-3-carboxylic acid ethyl ester, was utilized further as a catalyst precursor. READ MORE
