Background: Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by tau and amyloid brain pathology. With the gradual degeneration of neurons, cognitive symptoms will arise and the affected individual will eventually develop AD dementia. The neuropathologic hallmarks of AD have been observed also in cognitively healthy individuals, which has led to the assumption that the disorde
Malaria caused by Plasmodium falciparum is still a major health threat in endemic areas especially for children below 5 years of age. While it is recognized that antibody immunity plays an important role in controlling the disease, knowledge of the mechanisms of sustenance and natural boosting of immunity is very limited. Before, it has not been possible to investigate malaria specific B-cells dir
Climate change is likely to have severe effects on water availability in Ethiopia. The aim of the present study was to assess the impact of climate change on the Gilgel Abay River, Upper Blue Nile Basin. The Statistical Downscaling Tool (SDSM) was used to downscale the HadCM3 (Hadley centre Climate Model 3) Global Circulation Model (GCM) scenario data into finer scale resolution. The Soil and Wate
The purpose of this study was to determine whether delayed gadolinium-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging of cartilage (dGEMRIC) and T2 mapping are accurate techniques for measuring cartilage thickness in the metacarpus3/metatarsus3 (Mc3/Mt3) of Thoroughbred racehorses. Twenty-four Mc3/Mt3 cadaver specimens were acquired from six healthy racehorses. Cartilage thickness was measured from postintra-
I takt med att komplexiteten inom vissa rättsområden ökat, har även behovet vuxit fram av en domstolsorganisation med fördjupad kunskap och kompetens att handlägga tvister inom dessa områden. För att uppnå sådan specialisering har rättskipningen i Sverige delats upp mellan olika särskilda och speciella domstolar, där varje domstolsslag har exklusiv behörighet att pröva mål som faller inom dess resAs the complexity of certain areas of law has increased, so too has the need for a court organization with specialized knowledge and competence to handle disputes within these areas of law. To achieve such specialization, the administration of justice in Sweden has been divided among various specialized courts, each of which has exclusive jurisdiction to hear cases falling within its respective su
Reservdelars tillgänglighet är en central fråga i EU:s arbete för en cirkulär ekonomi och hållbar konsumtion. Genom den s.k. designreformen, bestående av förordning (EU) 2024/2822 och direktiv (EU) 2024/2823, införs ett harmoniserat reparationsundantag för formberoende reservdelar. Undantaget syftar till att harmonisera mönsterskyddet för reservdelar inom EU, och att liberalisera eftermarknaden föThe availability of spare parts is a central issue in the EU’s efforts to promote a circular economy and sustainable consumption. Through the so-called Design Reform, consisting of Regulation (EU) 2024/2822 and Directive (EU) 2024/282, a harmonised repair clause for component parts whose appearance determines the design is introduced. The purpose of the clause is to harmonise design protection for
The European Union’s identity as a normative power has long been examined and contested, most famously by Ian Manners' conceptualization in his 2002 work, Normative Power Europe. This study critically reassesses the EU's proposed identity through the lens of its responses to two pivotal crises: the Syrian conflict (2012-2015) and the 2016 EU-Türkiye Refugee Deal. The research interrogates
Syftet med den här uppsatsen är att undersöka om takvolym är analogt tillämpligt på dynamiska inköpssystem. De senaste åren har prejudikat förändrat synen på vad som maximalt kan avropas inom ett ramavtal. Det skapar följdfrågor om takvolym kan tillämpas analogt på dynamiska inköpssystem, vilket är uppsatsens huvudsakliga fråga. Uppsatsen kommer att börja med att introducera upphandling i stora drThe purpose of this essay is to investigate the possibility of applying “ceiling volume” onto a dynamic purchasing system. Ceiling volume means the requirement to specify a maximum volume of supplies or services. In recent years legal cases have changed the view of the maximum volume that can be awarded during a given period within a framework agreement. A question has now been raised as to whethe
Current automated haematology systems lack the functionality of avian blood analysis using 10x magnification, which is an important feature as it allows for faster and more cost-effective blood analysis. The problem originates from the difference in red blood cell morphology in avian blood compared to mammalian blood, as the former are nucleated. The project was divided in two objectives, finding
This bachelor thesis investigates how women's representation in municipal councils affects the political agenda in two Swedish municipalities, Trelleborg and Landskrona. Through a qualitative analysis of municipal council minutes from the year 2022, it compares how issues related to women's rights and interests are addressed in these municipalities. The study applies theories from Lena Wän
Abstract The purpose of this study is to create an understanding of how radical right-wing parties attract female votes, with a focus on the Swedish Democrats (SD) in Sweden. This party typically takes on a more critical approach against equality and their voters are mostly young, white men, which makes it interesting to study how they attract womens votes. By studying the Swedish Democratic women
This qualitative study aimed to explore the experiences related to the integration process in the Swedish labor market of highly educated female refugees who fled from Syria to Sweden between the years of 2014 to 2021. Interviews were conducted with a total of seven women who, at the time of their interviews, were in different stages of integration into the labor market. Three of the women that we
I över 100 år har den svenska avtalslagen varit i kraft. Under majoriteten av dessa år har avtalslagen och dess förarbeten utgjort en stabil grund för avtals-mekanismen. De metoder för avtalsslut som lagen ursprungligen utformades för skiljer sig avsevärt från dagens möjligheter. Trots detta har avtalslagen hittills visat sig flexibel nog att hantera moderna utmaningar och lösa problem även i nya The Contract Act has been in force for over 100 years. For the majority of these years, the Contract Act and its preparatory works have provided a stable basis for the contract mechanism. The methods of contracting for which the law was originally designed differ significantly from today's possibilities. Nevertheless, the Contract Act has so far proved flexible enough to cope with modern chall
Den nuvarande ökningen av icke-statliga aktörer som bedriver kommersiell verksamhet i rymden har lett till juridiska frågor om bland annat ansvar. Är det nuvarande internationella rättsliga ramverket för yttre rymden tillräckligt etablerat för att hantera övergången från ett rättsområde som en gång dominerades av stater, till ett område som idag drivs av privata ekonomiska intressen? I denna uppThe important rise of non-state actors performing commercial activities in outer space has resulted in legal issues regarding inter alia responsibility. The question is whether the current international legal framework on outer space is sufficiently established to cope with a continuously shifting legal area once dominated by States to one today driven by private economic interests. This essay i
The survival of our planet is in crisis, and it is affecting society at large. People recognise companies have significantly contributed to the problem, and stakeholders expect and demand businesses to do better. Nowadays, there are strong arguments in sustainability for engaging with as many employees as possible to find novel and innovative solutions more quickly. This study investigated how a p
ABSTRACT This thesis explores the chances of learning from an educational model from Colombia, Escuela Nueva Learning Circles, to overcome issues with refugee integration in primary schools in Austria. It set out to understand the current challenges in Austria and a possible utilization of a pedagogical model of the Global South for empowering refugee children in a Global North context. The empir
The focus of this paper is on the relationship between U.S. interest rates and real GDP per capita growth in emerging markets. The analysis of the paper seeks to determine if the relationship is negative and non-linear in nature as postulated by the paper’s two hypotheses. Three panel data regressions using the same dependent variable, real GDP per capita growth rate, but different explanatory var
In Sweden women with an immigrant background are through different policies frequently secluded to care labour. Consequently, a big part of women migrating to Sweden work as an assisting nurse in eldercare. The aim of this study is therefore to further develop an understanding of these women’s agency in Sweden, by discovering how agency exists in relation to work, family and spare time. Therefore,
