Popular Abstract in Swedish Mer än hälften av alla kvinnor har haft en urinvägsinfektion. Infektionen uppkommer när bakterier når urinblåsan och börjar växa. Immunförsvaret känner igen bakterierna, reagerar med en inflammation och symptom som sveda, trängningar och smärtor i nedre magtrakten uppstår. Om bakterierna klättrar upp till njurarna sprider sig inflammationen dit och orsakar ryggsmärtor oUrinary tract infections (UTIs) present an interesting and relevant model for studying microbial adaptation. After establishing significant numbers, the bacteria either cause severe disease, or an asymptomatic carrier state resembling the normal flora at other mucosal sites. Patients with asymptomatic bacteriuria (ABU) are protected from re-infection if the strain that they carry outcompetes more

Interactions between T-cells and other body cells is an essential part of the immune system. It involves the binding between surface receptors of the two cells. Specifically, T-cell receptors (TCRs) bind onto pMHC (peptide-loaded major histocompatibility complex) molecules on the partnering cell surface. This way, a cell signal from the TCR to the nucleus can be initiated. Depending on the "m

I denna framställning utreds hur beviskravet påverkas av att åklagarens gärningsbeskrivning innehåller vagheter i prövningen vid mordåtal och våldtäktsåtal. I studien undersöks även intressekonflikten mellan den tilltalades rättssäkerhetsintresse och effektivitetsintresset i strafftillämningen. Vagheter anses i någon mån behövlig i gärningsbeskrivningen för att kunna få till stånd ett åtal för visThis thesis examines how the evidential requirement is influenced in the indictment of murder and rape if there is vagueness in the prosecutor's statement of the criminal act as charged. The study also assesses the conflict of interest between the accused's legal certainty of the rule of law and the effectiveness in the application of the law. Vagueness is considered necessary in some case

Skyldigheten för en avtalspart att meddela motparten om eventuellt miss-nöje med avtalsrelationen eller den levererade prestationen har länge varit en del av den svenska rätten. Skyldigheten förstås i dag som ett utlopp av par-ternas lojalitetsplikt och stadgar en allmän avtalsrättslig reklamationsplikt. Den allmänna reklamationsplikten har de senaste åren återkommande prö-vats av HD. Genom HD:s pThe obligation for a contracting party to notify the counterparty of any dissatisfaction with the contractual relationship or the counterparty’s performance has for long been a part of Swedish law. The obligation is an expression of the parties’ duty of loyalty and establishes a general contractual obligation to give notice. An obligation that has been the focus of several of the Swedish Supreme C

This dissertation has three cornerstones: * Haptics * Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) * Blind Users Haptics deals with controlling human movements and getting feedback through the sense of touch. A haptic interface transmits forces to a person’s hand or fingers in a way that mimics the sensation of touching real objects. Virtual haptic touch can be particularly useful for people with visual i

Land-Use Change and Terrestrial Predator–Prey Networks Land-use change, here defined as the conversion of one land-use type into another (e.g., forest to arable land), affects biodiversity and biotic interactions worldwide (Sala et al., 2000). Although there has been large regional variation in the extent of agricultural expansion and abandonment in Europe in the past 50 years (Rabbinge and van Di

Exposure to vibrations from tools and machines used in construction work can induce damages to the human body. Oscillations around a fix point with a certain direction, frequency and magnitude describe the phenomenon vibrations. Their influence is generally expressed as acceleration [m/s2]. Furthermore, vibrations are separated in two categories; hand‐arm vibrations or whole body vibrations. Expos

Förhållandet mellan dubbel straffbarhet och brukande av cannabis i Danmark är ett komplicerat sådant. I Danmark är bruk av narkotika inte självständigt reglerat i narkotikalagstiftningen såsom det är i Sverige. Med anledning av detta är det således problematiskt för det svenska rättsväsendet att avgöra om det är legaliserat eller ej att bruka narkotika i Danmark. I den danska narkotikalagstiftninThe relationship between the requirement of double criminality and using cannabis in Denmark is complicated. The reason is that the Danish legislation of drugs doesn´t have a specific rule which prohibits the condition of using drugs. Therefore, it´s a difficult task for the Swedish judicial system to decide whether or not it´s illegal to use drugs in Denmark. As a consequence, it´s also hard to d
