Food is a daily product which has a significant part of private consumption. Just like other goods, food prices tend to fluctuate, depending on a number of factors. An increasingly globalized food production, coupled with increased consumption, makes Swedish food prices more sensitive to outside factors. The increase in imports and the decrease in self-sufficiency means that prices in Sweden are a

Den föreliggande studien undersökte förhållandet mellan extraversion och resilience, resilience och emotionsreglering, extraversion och emotionsreglering, samt emotionsregleringens mediering av förhållandet mellan extraversion och resilience. Urvalsgruppen var studenter vid Lunds Universitet i Sverige, en population som tidigare inte undersökts i detta sammanhang. Deltagarna (n = 253) svarade på eThis study investigated the relationship between extraversion and resilience, resilience and emotion regulation, extraversion and emotion regulation, and the possibility of emotion regulation as a mediator in the relationship between extraversion and resilience. The researched population in this study consisted of students from Lund’s University in Sweden. This population has not been researched i

The main purpose of this thesis is to present and analyze spatial characteristics of 31 different European atmospheric measurement stations in the ICOS (Integrated Carbon Observation System) station network. The characterization includes quantification of where air arriving at the stations can be expected to have come from, as well as a breakdown of what these areas cover with regards to land cove

Uppsatsen behandlar den senaste lagändringen av 6 kap. 2 a § föräldrabalken, som trädde i kraft den 1 januari 2025, och analyserar hur lagändringen påverkar rättsutvecklingen kring principen om barnets bästa i vårdnadstvister. Syftet är att undersöka i vilken utsträckning lagändringen har omformat bedömningen av barnets bästa och hur barnets rätt att bli hörd påverkas i ljuset av den nya regleringThis thesis examines the latest amendment to Chapter 6, Section 2 a of the Swedish Children and Parents Code (FB), which entered into force on 1 January 2025, and analyses how the amendment influences the legal development of the principle of the best interests of the child in custody disputes. The purpose is to investigate the extent to which the amendment has re-shaped the assessment of the chil

Amyloid plaques and neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs) in the brain are the neuropathological hallmarks of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Amyloid plaques are composed of β-amyloid peptides (Aβ), while NFTs contain hyperphosphorylated tau proteins. Patients with familial AD who have mutations in the amyloid precursor protein (APP) gene have either increased production of Aβ or generate more aggregation-pron

Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are emerging players in cancer and they entail potential as prognostic biomarkers or therapeutic targets. Earlier studies have identified somatic mutations in lncRNAs that are associated with tumor relapse after therapy, but the underlying mechanisms behind these associations remain unknown. Given the relevance of secondary structure for the function of some lncRNAs,

The healthy cornea is transparent, however, disease can affect its structure, rendering it more or less opaque. The ability to assess the clarity of the cornea objectively could thus be of considerable interest for keratoconus patients. It has previously been suggested that densitometry can be used to diagnose early keratoconus, and that the values of densitometry variables increase with increasin

Shrunken pore syndrome (SPS) is a condition in which the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) based on serum/plasma cystatin C concentration is significantly lower than the eGFR based on creatinine. According to the literatures, the diagnosis of SPS could be defined when the eGFRcystatin C is <70% of eGFRcreatinine. Although the incidence of SPS varies in different patient populations and h

Mental ill-health among adolescents – From professional social workers perspective (translated title) Abstract Authors: Erica Månsson and Victoria Bergendorff Title: Mental ill-health among adolescents – From professional social workers perspective (translated title) Supervisor: Åsa Lundqvist Assessor: Elizabeth Martinell Barfoed The purpose of this study was to examine the mental ill-health a

XXXX, 1–39 © De Gruyter YYYY Numerical Methods for Unsteady Thermal Fluid Structure Interaction Philipp Birken and Azahar Monge Abstract. We discuss thermal fluid structure interaction processes, where a simulation of the time dependent temperature field is of interest. Thereby, we consider partitioned coupling schemes with a Dirichlet-Neumann method. We present an analysis of the method on a mode

PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) are a group of synthetically manufactured chemicals contributing to environmental pollution. The largest point source of PFAS in Sweden is the usage of firefighting foam, and at MSB (Swedish Civil Contingencies Agency) Revinge, firefighting foam has frequently been used. Moreover, PFAS is known to accumulate in plants, and a Salix plant cultivation has be

Uppsatsen har syftat till att kritiskt granska samtyckesrekvisitet i 16 kapitlet 4 § HSL samt 10 kapitlet 8 och 9 §§ SoL (kallad SIP-bestämmelsen), speciellt i relation till individer med nedsatt beslutsförmåga. Lagtext och dess förarbeten har granskats liksom den praktiska tillämpningen av SIP-bestämmelsen. Dessutom har bestämmelsen satts i ett annat perspektiv genom att samtyckesregleringen i SVThis essay set out to critically examine the need for consent regarding the possibility to obtain a coordinated individual plan (SIP). This is covered in a legal provision I refer to as the SIP-provision. It is analysed in relation to individuals with impaired decision-making capacity. The legal provision as well as preparatory works has been explored and there is also the aspect of how the provis

At the heart of many nucleoside triphosphatases is a conserved phosphate-binding sequence motif. A current model of early enzyme evolution proposes that this six to eight residue motif could have sparked the emergence of the very first nucleoside triphosphatases—a striking example of evolutionary continuity from simple beginnings, if true. To test this provocative model, seven disembodied Walker A

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a neurodegenerative disease characterized by a progressive loss of motor neurons. Neuroinflammation is apparent in affected tissues, including increased T cell infiltration and activation of microglia, particularly in the spinal cord1,2. Autoimmune responses are thought to have a key role in ALS pathology, and it is hypothesized that T cells contribute to the
