Lagen (1982:80) om anställningsskydd (LAS) genomgick år 2022 en reform som bland annat innebar en förändring av regleringen för uppsägning på grund av personliga skäl i 7 § LAS. Syftet var att öka förutsebarheten för både arbetsgivare och arbetstagare vid uppsägningar. Med hjälp av rättsdogmatisk metod syftar uppsatsen till att analysera och kartlägga reformen i förhållande till uppsägning på gruThe Employment Protection Act (LAS) underwent a reform in 2022 which, among other things, involved a change in the regulation regarding dismissals on personal grounds in Section 7. The purpose of the reform was to increase predictability for both employers and employees in cases of dismissals. Using a legal dogmatic method, the thesis aims to analyse and map the reform in relation to dismissal on

This report evaluates and compares the methods in fire inspection at Malmø Fire Brigade and Copenhagen Fire Brigade. The report also examines fire safety laws and regulations and the educational differences of the fire inspectors in Malmø and Copenhagen. The investigation is a project for Malmø Fire Brigade and Copenhagen Fire Brigade in co-operation with the Department of Fire Safety Engineering

CONTEXT: Uptake of organic farming falls short of stated sustainability targets, particularly in highly productive regions where adoption could mitigate environmental impacts of intensive farming. Several hypotheses have been advanced to explain the constraints on adoption, but these have not been assessed within an integrative, interdisciplinary framework.OBJECTIVE: The objective was to develop a

Denna berättelse om Synergi mellan Strål- och Immun-Terapi har sitt ursprung i resultaten av försök som utfördes år 2001 vilka avsåg att kombinera tumörvaccin-behandling med strålterapi av Fischer-344 råttor med gliom-tumörer inokulerade i hjärnan.Med 3 omgångar tumörvaccin kombinerat med endast en fraktion strålterapi á 5Gy, överlevde sex av åtta behandlade djur (ca.75%). Detta dramatiska re

Real catalysts consisting of nanoparticles host many nanofacets. Each nanofacet changes its structure and function in response to its local environment but is also affected by neighboring nanofacets. Time-resolved operando experiments close to realistic conditions at polycrystals mimicking real catalyst particles are unfortunately challenging but could be highly rewarding. Here, we demonstrate how

Agricultural production systems are under pressure to contribute to climate mitigation, biodiversity conservation, and resilient food production. This calls for multifunctional strategies, potentially including integrated biomass production in intensively farmed landscapes to generate renewable energy and positive environmental impacts as co-benefits. Despite this, broader implications of large-sc

Retrospective, propensity-score-adjusted (PSA) studies have indicated to practitioners in the field that contrast-induced acute kidney injury (AKI) after contrast-enhanced CT (CECT) is of minor importance or even non-existent. This has led to controversies between clinicians demanding CECT not to miss any diagnoses and radiologists reluctant or even refusing CECT in risky patients. A critical revi

UNLABELLED: Children gain increased health and well-being by participating in physical activity. Children with cerebral palsy who are ambulatory (CP-A) are known to be less physically active than children without physical disabilities, making them an important group of children to support in becoming more physically active. Assistive technologies, such as eHealth, may support physical exercise in

The ability to precisely control the localization of individual cells or other microscopic biological particles in aqueous suspension inside a microfluidic confinement is essential for the realization of future tools for single-cell studies in basic biology and medicine. We previously demonstrated that thermoacoustic streaming stemming from interactions of an acoustic field with a thermal gradient

The EU's Clean Energy Package introduced renewable and citizen energy communities (RECs/CECs) to strengthen citizen participation in electricity markets. Nordic countries, however, have long-standing traditions of community-based energy provision, including district heating cooperatives, small hydropower schemes, and wind cooperatives. This article examines how nationally embedded energy models in

Cancer cells display marked heterogeneity in size and morphology, traits long recognized in pathology as indicators of pleomorphism and poor prognosis. Yet, the functional significance and phenotypic consequences of these morphological variations within a single cancer cell population remain poorly understood. Here, we employed a deterministic lateral displacement (DLD) microfluidic device with a

This report describes and addresses patterns of discrimination in Sweden’s care sector, primarily related to gender and migrant status. It examines national legislation, collective agreements, case law, and equality bodies’ activities concerning equal treatment, pay transparency, parental leave, and occupational safety. It highlights the highly feminised nature of the care workforce, persistent ge

This study reveals specific ion effects on particle formation during peristaltic pumping of a monoclonal Antibody (Antibody A). For this purpose, three anions in the direct Hofmeister series were selected, ranging from the kosmotropic SO42- to the more neutral Cl- and the chaotropic SCN-. Protein particle formation during peristaltic pumping is described primarily as a surface-driven mechanism. Th

Environmental changes over time and across different regions profoundly affect agriculture, forestry, water management, public health, and ecosystems. Therefore, monitoring these fluctuations is crucial for informing decision-making and developing strategies for long-term sustainability. While ground-based methods provide valuable insights into environmental dynamics, they are inherently limited i

Childhood stunting is a serious global public health issue that exhibits local spatial variations. Previous studies have used traditional statistical methods to identify stunting risk factors, and little is known about the application and usefulness of spatial machine learning techniques in identifying localized stunting risk factors based on complex datasets. This study assesses the performance o

The prevalence of tattoos in western countries is about 20%. Tattoo ink may contain carcinogenic compounds. The aim of this study was to investigate if tattoo exposure is associated with an increased risk of cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma in individuals. In this population-based case-control study, 2857 cases aged 20 to 60 years, diagnosed between 2014 and 2017, were identified in the Swedish C

Photoacoustic imaging can potentially map oxygen saturation (sO2) non-invasively. However, in-vivo human application is challenging due to spectral coloring, which causes a wavelength-dependent fluence attenuation and uncertainty in the estimation of chromophore concentrations deep in tissue. This study compares the performances of two previously proposed methods for spectral coloring compensation

Background: Cognitive rigidity and working memory impairment are established features of internalizing syndromes. Growing evidence suggests that deficits in affective control –cognitive control in the context of emotion – may underpin elevated emotion-related impulsivity in various psychiatric disorders. Objective: This study examines two components of affective control (affective flexibility and

Background: Depression and suicidal behavior have been linked to increased blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeability. Platelet-derived growth factor receptor beta (PDGFR-β) is widely expressed in pericytes and promotes BBB integrity. Here, we investigated cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) levels of PDGFR-β in suicide attempters and healthy controls and correlated PDGFR-β to depression symptom severity. Metho
