Breast cancer is one of the most common cancer types with almost 1,700,000 cases and greater than 500,000 deaths each year worldwide. This represents approximately one new case and one death every 20 and 60 seconds, respectively. Breast cancer has garnered considerable scientific attention because of the high incidence. Traditionally, patients are classified into three distinct clinical subtypes d

2011 hade filmen Play premiär. Filmens regissör, Ruben Östlund, hämtade inspiration till filmen ur en serie verkliga händelser som ledde till ett omfattande rättsfall där fem förövare stod anklagade för att ha utfört flera rån med hjälp av det så kallade “brorsantricket”. Efter filmens premiär uppstod en omfattande debatt på kultursidorna i dagspressen som i huvudsak behandlade frågan om regissöre

I detta arbete granskas den svenska bevisrättens öppna utformning genom att jämföra den med det för den amerikanska bevisrätten centrala fallet Mapp v. Ohio. I fallet etablerades en exkluderingsregel vars syfte var att begränsa användningen av regelvidrigt införskaffad bevisning i brottmål. Fallet reser fundamentala frågor där man menar att bevisrätten inte bara bör utformas efter vad som fungerarThis study scrutinizes the Swedish theory of evidence, or lack thereof, through a side by side comparison of the US landmark case of Mapp v. Ohio contrasted with the Swedish law of evidence. Said case establishes an exclusionary rule entailing limitations on the usage of ill-gotten evidence on the part of state actors in criminal cases. It shows that the laws of evidence should not simply be a mat

Med ofta stora summor involverade i ärenden relaterade till osäkra hamnar är det av stort intresse för både redaren och befraktaren att etablera deras respektive risk de har under en resa. Den här uppsatsen behandlar relationen mellan redaren och befraktaren då redaren har åsamkats skada på grund av en osäker hamn. Frågan är till vilken grad det är möjligt att hålla befraktaren ansvarig för en såWith often large amounts involved, the issue of unsafe ports is of great interest for both the shipowner and the charterer in order to establish what kind of risk they would bear under a voyage. This thesis deals with the relationship between the shipowner and the charterer when the shipowner has suffered a loss due to an unsafe port. The question is to what extent it is possible to hold the char

The purpose of this paper is to illustrate drug addiction treatment for women and to get an insight if and how they regard the issue of prostitution in women’s rehab. I will do this by reviewing if the context in law SoL 2001:453 kap. 5 § 9 can be applied to women in treatment for drug addiction with prostitution as their main funding source. According to SoL 2001:453 kap.5 § 9 the care that is of

Private retail banking is a central aspect of contemporary life in Sweden. By engaging in banking actions and activities, individuals are able to access money, make payments and commercial transactions, and aim to organize and control private finances. Through the introduction of banking onto digital platforms, handheld devices and plastic cards, banking has become more flexible, mobile and indivi

Miyake et al. (2012,2013) upptäckte en snabb ökning av 14C i träringar daterade till 774-5 och 992-3 vilket tillskrevs exceptionalla kosmik strålnings händelser. Dessa extrema partikel händelser har inget motstycke i instrumentala eller hstoriska arkiv och blev följdaktigen mycket uppmärksammade. Många studier har försöt koppla samman dessa två händelser med sol protonstormar (SPE), supernovor, gaMiyake et al. (2012, 2013) discovered rapid increases of 14C content in tree rings dated to AD 774-5 and AD 992-3 which were attributed to unprecedented cosmic-ray events. These extreme particle events have no counterparts in the instrumental and historical record and consequently praised great interest. Indeed, many studies have tentatively associated the two events to solar proton events (SPE),

The thesis is primarily concerned with rare earth ions doped into yttrium ortho silicate crystals, RE:YSO. It is considered to be an ambitious platform for the development of quantum computing schemes. One such scheme requires the detection of single cerium ions. The project was aimed at measuring the saturation intensity of cerium 5d-4f transition which is needed for the single ion detection. Th

The research of pornography has always been sorrowful and affected by many accusations of researchers being ‘Porn apologists dressing up personal convictions to look more objective by attaching the word “studies” to the title of their journal’ or often according to anti-porn advocates they were ‘expressing their own opinions rather than producing research’ and were likely to write ‘fulsome article

Frågeställningar: - Hur konceptualiseras IKEA Malmös mångfaldsarbete? - Hur implementeras och kommuniceras mångfaldsarbetet på IKEA Malmö? - Hur upplever medarbetarna mångfaldsarbetet? Metod: En kva

Uppsatsen syftar till att jämföra hur tolkningen av targeting-reglerna inom den humanitära rätten skiljer sig åt mellan Sverige och USA. Uppsatsen fokuserar på grunderna inom targeting, dvs. distinktions- och proportionalitetsprincipen, och avser att åskådliggöra den amerikanska och svenska synen på vad som utgör ett lagligt mål och hur ett sådant mål attackeras på ett lagligt vis. En komparativThe purpose of the thesis is to compare how the interpretation of the law of targeting differs between the United States and Sweden. The thesis is focused on the basis of the law of targeting, i.e. the principles of distinction and proportionality, and answers the questions of what the view of the United States and Sweden is regarding what constitutes a lawful target and how to lawfully attack suc

This thesis describes how the development work associated with the construction of a circuit board. The circuit board that is constructed is a card that can drive two small stepper motors. The control of the driver is done by connecting the driver with a higher-level controller (CPP-card). This card is programmed to control the stepper motors. The development work has largely consisted in selectin

Implementation of a MES (Management Execution System) was made on a server that belongs to a factory owned by Oatly AB. The task was assigned by Schneider Electric AB in Helsingborg. Most of the time was spent in a Schneider Electric office, where new software in the field of energy analysis were studied, tested and finally implemented by remote controlling Oatly’s server. By using MES, measuremen

This report outlines a method to price and hedge a generalized swing option based on the European natural gas and electricity markets. The method is model free in that is does not assume a certain spot price dynamics. It only requires a forward curve and European call options prices that cover the delivery period of the swing option. The results is a lower bound derived from the price of forwards

China, the EU and the US are the top 3 destinations for exports from Africa. The implication for this relationship is that economic growth in these economic giants will have an effect on the aggregate demand of African economies through trade. Additionally, the emergence of China as an economic power has enabled it to increase its influence on the global stage on various fronts. African countries
