I Sverige har våld i nära relationer de senaste decennierna varit en högt prioriterad fråga, såväl politiskt som straffrättsligt. Partnervåld, och i synnerhet mäns våld mot kvinnor, har ansetts vara ett av de största hindren mot ett jämställt samhället. Det första straffrättsliga krafttaget för att motverka partnervåld gjordes i slutet på 1990-talet i samband med instiftandet av brottet grov kvinnIn Sweden, domestic violence has during recent decades been a high priority issue, both politically and in criminal law. Domestic abuse in relationships, and particularly men's violence against women, has been considered as one of the biggest obstacles to reach gender equality. The most significant measure in criminal law reguarding this issue was done in the late 1990s, when the legislation G

Background: Studying contemporary hybridization increases our understanding of introgression, adaptation and, ultimately, speciation. The sister species Ischnura elegans and I. graellsii (Odonata: Coenagrionidae) are ecologically, morphologically and genetically similar and hybridize. Recently, I. elegans has colonized northern Spain, creating a broad sympatric region with I. graellsii. Here, we r

Thesis Purpose: This study aims to enhance the understanding of factors that discourage consumers from buying pre-owned fashion in a multichannel retail setting. Methodology: Rooted in a qualitative and exploratory method, this study is further guided by an abductive approach. By embracing the essence of the social constructivist epistemology and a relativistic ontological standpoint, it delves i

Universum är en underlig plats som har ställt många frågor, vissa som vi svarat på men många är kvar och ännu fler är okända. En av de som vi aktivt börjat besvara är frågan om mörk materia. Hur vet vi att det finns? Hur kan vi veta mer? Vad är det? Den första av dessa delfrågor har vi redan besvarat, vi vet att mörk materia finns för att det behövs någon osynlig massa för att, bland annat, rotatiDark matter has an important role in our Universe, especially in galaxy formation and evolution, but there are many theoretical models that attempt to describe it and to find out which one, if any, are correct we must test them. Testing a theoretical model of this nature at a galactic scale must and has been done using computational methods through simulations, but this has revealed more complicat

De bärande grundtankarna för det svenska processrättsliga förfarandet är att förhandlingen i domstol utgår från principerna om omedelbarhet, muntlighet och koncentration. Av det följer att ett mål som huvudregel ska avgöras vid en muntlig och koncentrerad förhandling och där rätten enbart på det som förekommit vid förhandlingen får grunda sin dom. Tillkomsten av principerna sträcker sig så långt bThe fundamental ideas underlying the Swedish procedural law procedure are that the hearing in court is based on the principles of immediacy, orality and concentration. It follows that a case must, as a general rule, be decided at an oral and concentrated hearing and that the court may base its judgment solely on what has occurred at the hearing. The origins of these principles go back as far as th

Context This research looks at managing uncertainty and recovery processes following failure of a sociotechnical system. The provision of Air Traffic Services (ATS) is an essential service that must continue to function supporting at a minimum; medical flights, search and rescue operations, humanitarian aid, State and military flights (as demonstrated during the recent global pandemic). Purpose Th

I Sverige finns inget direkt förbud mot att bränna religiösa skrifter, vilket det däremot finns i Finland. Att bränna religiösa skrifter är en form av hädelse, och det är en sådan typ av lagstiftning som Finland har. Att häda innebär att kränka Gud eller ett annat religiöst föremål. Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka hädelselagstiftningens historia i Sverige och Fin-land. FrågeställningarnaIn Sweden, there is no direct prohibition against burning religious scriptures, which however exists in Finland. Burning religious scriptures is a form av blasphemy, and it is this type of legislation Finland has. Blasphemy means insulting God or another religious object. The purpose of this essay is to examine the history of blasphemy legislation in Sweden and Finland. The research questions are

In this essay the problem of finding fair equilibria in auctions with multiple heterogeneous and indivisible items is investigated. We assume an equal number of bidders demanding items as number of items, and that every bidder is assigned exactly one item. Among the theoretical results we show the existence of an equilibrium, strategy-proofness for a particular set of prices and convergence of the

Background Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is the most common gastrointestinal disorder, affecting more than 10% of the general population worldwide. Although a genetic component is suspected, unambiguous susceptibility genes have so far not been identified. This study tested the hypothesis that genes contributing to epithelial barrier integrity, control of mucosal immune responses and interactions

Popular Abstract in Swedish Bakgrund och syfte med avhandlingen Glutenintolerans, celiaki är en av de vanligaste kroniska sjukdomarna bland barn och innebär att man inte tåler gluten, som är ett protein och finns i vete, råg och korn. Tunntarmen har en veckad slemhinna med fingerlika utskott , tarmludd och hela tarmen har en yta på 250 kvadratmeter, vilket är lika stort som en tennisplan. Den stBackground: The prevalence of celiac disease (CD) is estimated to be around 1%, but most CD cases are undiagnosed. Sweden experienced an epidemic of clinically detected celiac disease in children younger than 2 years of age, partly due to changes in infant feeding practices, were the amount of gluten and age at introduction was changed. However, it was not clear if the increase in clinically detec

Human dUTPase, expressed in Escherichia coli, has been crystallized. Single crystals were obtained by the vapour-diffusion technique using 2-propanol and PEG 4000 as precipitants. The enzyme was co-crystallized with the substrate dUTP and a metal chelator EDTA to prevent hydrolysis of the substrate. The crystals belong to the orthorombic space group P212121 with cell dimensions a = 67.51, b = 68.2

The loop region of chymotrypsin inhibitor 2 from barley has been employed as a scaffold for testing the intrinsic propensity of a peptide fragment to form a secondary structure. The helix formation of the nine amino acid residue segment Lys-Gln- Ala-Val- Asp- Asn- Ala-Tyr-Ala of helix E from subtilisin Carlsberg has been studied by the construction of a hybrid consisting of chymotrypsin inhibitor

The release gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) and ATP from rat beta cells was monitored using an electrophysiological assay based on overexpression GABAA or P2X2 receptor ion channels. Exocytosis of LDCVs, detected by carbon fiber amperometry of serotonin, correlated strongly (similar to 80%) with ATP release. The increase in membrane capacitance per ATP release event was 3.4 fF, close to the expecte

PURPOSE Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a potential adverse effect of endocrine treatment (ET) for prostate cancer (PC). We investigated absolute and relative CVD risk in 76,600 patients with PC undergoing ET, curative treatment, or surveillance. METHODS PCBaSe Sweden is based on the National Prostate Cancer Register, which covers more than 96% of PC cases. Standardized incidence ratios (SIRs) and

When a system is maintained, its automated test suites must also be maintained to keep the tests up to date. Even though practice indicates that test suite maintenance can be very costly we have seen few studies considering the actual efforts for maintenance of testware. We conducted a case study on an evolving system with three updated versions, changed with three different change strategies.

Context: Glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) are cleaved by dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4); plasma activity of DPP-4 may be increased in obesity. The impact of this increase on incretin hormone secretion and metabolism is not known. Objective: The aim of the study was to assess incretin hormone secretion and degradation in lean and obese nondiabet

The article reports on a longitudinal study of children placed in a children's home during the first two years of the 1980s. The 26 children placed when younger than 4 years of age and staying more than 4 weeks were followed up 3 and 9 months after leaving the children's home and 5, 10, 15 and 20 years later. The children's family relations, including early attachments and later parental relations

Soil microorganisms, the central drivers of terrestrial Antarctic ecosystems, are being confronted with increasing temperatures as parts of the continent experience considerable warming. Here we determined short-term temperature dependencies of Antarctic soil bacterial community growth rates, using the leucine incorporation technique, in order to predict future changes in temperature sensitivity o
