Små molekyler med stor inverkan - interferon alfas roll i Systemisk Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) Systemisk Lupus Erythematosus är en autoimmun sjukdom där immunförsvaret attackerar kroppens egna vävnader. Detta leder till en kronisk inflammation som kan yttra sig i en rad olika manifestationer beroende på var inflammationen sker. Sjukdomsaktiviteten går i perioder, dvs att den går upp i skov där patSystemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disease where the immune system is attacking the body and its tissues. This leads to a chronic inflammation that can affect different parts of the body and therefore present itself in a vast variety of symptoms. Depending on the activity of the disease it can go up in flares where the patients experience symptoms and then go down into recession.

Synchrotron and Free Electron Laser (FEL) light is becoming an increasingly sought after tool for almost all scientific research aspects. MAX IV Laboratory introduced the first 4th generation light source that provides the brightest synchrotron light in the world. Since all of the experiments at MAX IV rely only on Insertion Device (ID) radiation, the need for improving ID technology has subsequen

In this thesis work, experiments have been carried out to study the behavior of radio frequency power amplifier which is the one of the largest power consumers in a user equipment which is a mobile phone in this case. A CMW-500 which is a Rohde and Schwarz equipment has been used to emulate the base station. A user equipment has been chosen that operates in accordance with cat12 LTE. The input pat

Studiens syfte är att undersöka hur fiollärare jobbar för att motivera sina elever och vilka faktorer elever själva anser har betydelse för deras motivation vad gäller musicerande. Studien syftar också till att undersöka vilka egenskaper elever eftersöker hos en motiverande lärare. Utifrån tidigare forskning och litteratur kring motivationsarbete och övning, samt resultatet av intervjuer med fioll

Morfologiska likheter med asbest tillsammans med toxikologiska studier i celler och försöksdjur har väckt oro för de potentiella hälsoriskerna om nanotrådar kan bli luftburna och inandas vid hantering. Nanotrådar växta på substrat genom epitaxi kan riskera att skadas under hantering vid förberedelse för analys i mikroskop och detta examensarbete ämnar undersöka huruvida nanotrådar eller fragment a

Neural networks have an increasingly important role in the financial market, by offering a solution to stationarity and non-linearity whilst also providing robustness and predictive power. Options and option pricing are a fundamental area of interest in the daily activities of investment banks, hedge funds and trading firms in the financial market. Implied volatility is the focal point of these op

On April 25, 1983, STERN, a renowned German magazine, held a press conference attended by more than 200 journalists and 27 television crews from all around the world. On that day, STERN announced that it had obtained private diaries of Adolf Hitler through a confidential source and intended to publish them. The Hamburg based magazine had already signed several contracts with various European magaz

Jämställdheten mellan kvinnor och män i arbetslivet är en viktig del i arbetet mot ett mer jämställt samhälle. Denna uppsats syftar till att utreda hur Sverige har valt att tolka begreppet positiv särbehandling. Positiv särbehandling tillåter särbehandling, i de fall det är ett steg till att främja jämställdheten mellan kvinnor och män på arbetsplatsen. Begreppet är dock vagt formulerat. Detta innEquality between women and men in the workplace is important when working towards an equal society. This essay aims to investigate how Sweden has interpreted the exemption from discrimination called positive action. The concept is based on EU law and is formulated to promote equality between men and women at the workplace. This possibility for using positive action is, however, composed vaguely. T

December 2nd 2016 it was established that Oatly had a new co-owner, China Resources, a partnership that went against not only their own core values but also the values of their oat followers. However, it was not until 2019 the media storm drew in. Oatly owned the spotlight and the debates continued whether Oatly could be trusted or if boycott was the best decision. Oatly however, answered the crit

Multidimensional integrals are used in many areas of physics; electrodynamics, quantum mechanics and statistical physics, to name a few. Many integrals can not be solved analytically, but can instead be approximated numerically. VEGAS is a Monte Carlo integration algorithm, which specializes it in approximating multidimensional integrals. By treating each integration variable independently, VEGAS

Chile is one of the countries in South American working to achieve energy independence by introducing renewables energy to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions from conventional energy sources. Chile has a variety of water resources from the North to the South, where most of these resources are comprehended by short rivers that are exploited to produce hydro-electric power. Chile has a huge number

Syfte: Arbetets syfte var att undersöka hur medarbetare upplever deras chefers ledarskap och användning av olika grupper av påverkanstaktiker. Vidare var vi intresserade om detta påverkades eller modulerades något av chefernas egen ålder eller kön. Vidare ville vi även få en fördjupad förståelse hur denna relation mellan medarbetare, chef och påverkanstaktik påverkar medarbetarnas egenupplevda motPurpose: The purpose of this study was to generate an understanding of how followers experience their boss’s leadership as well as their use of different groups of influence tactics. Furthermore, we were interested in researching if this was affected or modulated by either the boss’s gender or age. We further wanted to generate a deeper understanding how the relation between follower and boss and

Den här studien undersöker om en tidigare åkermark i sydöstra Skåne har potential att utvecklas till en artrik gräsmark. En inventering av kärlväxter utfördes i ett målområde för att undersöka vilka gräsmarksarter från den omedelbara omgivningen som lyckats etablera sig i den igenlagda åkern. Med hjälp av ekologiska indikatorvärden undersöktes vad som utmärkte de arter som förekom i målområdet med

The aim of this study is to hermeneutically understand and critically assess manifestations and impacts of certain aspects of the phenomenon of patriarchal gender norms. Seeing that gender norms are the sustaining component of the greater and oppressing gender system of patriarchy, this study is relevant in relation to the broader analysis and understanding of patriarchy and its influences. By usi

In this study a coarse-grained model of intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) is evaluated to determine whether the model is suitable to use for analyzing the structure and dynamics of IDPs. IDPs are proteins that lack a stable tertiary structure which gives them a flexible structure. The aim with this study is to find a model that is appropriate to use for analyzing dynamics events of IDPs. To
