Abstract:

The purpose for this qualitative study is to examine the crime prevention strategies against youth crime within non-state actors' work. As well as obtaining views of successes and challenges of this work in practice. Youth crime is a major area of interest within criminology, and in recent years much interest has been directed at problems that arise in the so-called vulnerable areas of Sweden, where young people are at risk of being drawn into crime. Information has been gathered through semi-structured interviews with nine people representing seven different organizations / associations. The

Abstract:

Missbruk av alkohol och droger kan leda till stora sociala och relationella problem. Dessa problem kan i sin tur bli svåra att hantera för den enskilde människan och de kan leda till att han eller hon tappar impulskontrollen och begår självmord. Det är därför angeläget att samhället satsar mer på dessa områden för att preventivt kunna minska antalet människor som begår självmord. Undersökningar bör även göras för att få klarhet i vilka förebyggande insatser som finns och hur dessa insatser kan minska antalet självmord.

Abstract:

Background: Diabetes is a common and costly disease that is expected to continue even to grow in prevalence and health expenditures over the coming decades. Type 2 diabetes is the most common diabetes type and is characterized by insulin resistance and relative insulin deficiency. Type 2 diabetes develops over a long period and is often undetected over years. During this time, people almost always first develop any of the pre-diabetic states, i.e. impaired fasting glucose (IFG), impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) or a combination of both (IFG&IGT).

Falls in older adults are a serious and increasing problem for the NHS. Due to their multifactorial causes falls are difficult to prevent but research suggests that assessment and early interventions of those at risk of falling can help reduce fall frequency and consequently alleviate the health service burden and improve quality of life for older adults. The overall objective of this work was to investigate postural stability in persons over the age of 65 years to understand why this age group are susceptible to falls.

Abstract:

Public policy has been shifting from child abuse and neglect (CAN) intervention toward prevention, using public health style frameworks, which emphasize shared community and legislative responsibilities to support families (Browne, 2014; CDC, 2014).

The transitioning years of an adolescent moving from elementary through middle school deem to be some of the most important, influential, and challenging years not only for the teenager but the parents. As the adolescent begins the process of being independent, the parent/adolescent relationship changes.
