The intensification of agriculture during the second half of the twentieth century, has caused sever declines of farmland biodiversity, where loss of semi-natural habitats is one of the major drivers. To halt further loss of habitat and biodiversity, agri-environmental schemes (AES) are used to compensate farmers to use methods less harmful to the environment. In this thesis, I have investigated t
Conventional capacity expansion planning (CEP) relies on a perfect-foresight planning horizon and linear investment optimisation, which fail to capture the non-linear dynamics of electricity markets. In the Nordics, hydro-related weather variability plays a critical role in maintaining the robustness of the power system. This paper addresses the intra-year perfect-foresight limitation in current C
AIMS: A history of preeclampsia is associated with at least a twofold increased risk of coronary artery disease (CAD), with unclear underlying mechanisms. This study aimed to investigate coronary plaque characteristics in women with a history of preeclampsia compared to women from the general population.METHODS: In this cross-sectional study, women with a history of preeclampsia from the Cardiovas
The aim of this dissertation is to map out and illustrate particularly troublesome and central areas in grammar learning. The point of departure is Josefsson and Lundin’s three suggested threshold concepts within grammar: to be able to distinguish between meaning, form and function, to be able to distinguish between a linear and a hierarchical dimension and to be able to identify and segment claus
Background: Bile leakage is a severe complication after cholecystectomy and is associated with an increased risk of morbidity and mortality. The aim of this study was to evaluate the incidence of bile leakage post-cholecystectomy and to identify potential risk factors and their association with changes in the incidence of bile leakage over time. Methods: Demographic and perioperative data of all p
Background: The use of high-flow oxygen therapy (HFOT) compared with standard low-flow oxygen therapy (LFOT) may improve outcomes in people with oxygen-dependent chronic respiratory failure (CRF). The primary aim of this multicentre trial was to evaluate HFOT in addition to LFOT, compared with regular LFOT in people with CRF due to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or interstitial lung
INTRODUCTION: People with longstanding hip and groin pain (LHGP) are often referred to orthopaedic care. Physical therapist-led interventions are recommended in consensus statements as the first line of treatment, but it is unknown if structured interventions are more effective than usual care. The aim of this trial is to evaluate the effectiveness of a structured physical therapist-led treatment
Context: Life satisfaction (LS) is associated with health and longevity but decreases after spinal cord injury (SCI). Yet, little is known about changes in LS over time, many years after SCI. Objectives: To assess changes in LS over six years among older adults aging with long-term SCI, determine how changes in LS are associated with sex, age, injury characteristics, and with changes in secondary
Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: Målsättningen med detta arbete är att ta fram en metod för att kartera och analysera den rumsliga variationen av landskapets sårbarhet för miljögifter, samt att visa hur geografiska informationssystem (GIS) kan underlätta denna rumsliga kartering och analys. Analysen utfördes inom vattenskyddsområdet Ignaberga-Hässleholm i Hässleholms kommun. Först studerades
De flesta aktiebolag i Sverige är fåmansföretag – vilket innebär att de ägs till övervägande del av en eller ett fåtal personer – och för dessa företag gäller särskilda skatterättsliga regler. Bakgrunden till denna särreglering är att det inte föreligger något sant tvåpartsförhållande mellan företaget och dess ägare, vilka utan särreglering därför skulle kunna skaffa sig omotiverade skattemässiga
Den här uppsatsen handlar om förhållandet mellan senmedeltida och tidigmodernt fursteideal. Studien är en komparativ idéanalys mellan den svenska "Konungastyrelsen" och Machiavellis "Fursten". Genom att anlägga politisk kultur som analytiskt redskap visar jag att det finns en idéhistorisk kontinuitet, med vissa brott och förändringar, i det västeuropeiska fursteidealet.
