Type-2 diabetes (T2D) develops due to insulin resistance and an inability of the pancreatic β-cells to increase secretion of insulin and reduce elevated blood glucose levels. Diminished β-cell function and mass have been implicated in impaired β-cell secretory capacity and several microRNAs (miRNAs) have been reported to be involved in regulating β-cell processes. We believe miRNAs are nodes in im

Psykiskt störda lagöverträdare har länge särbehandlats i den svenska rättsordningen. I nästan alla rättssystem ingår ett krav på tillräknelighet som brottsförutsättning. Detta krav togs bort i den svenska straffrätten i samband med brottsbalkens ikraftträdande 1965. Att vara tillräknelig innebär att man har en viss förmåga att förstå vad man gör, och att man kan kontrollera sitt handlande. Endast Mentally disturbed offenders have for a long time been treated differently in the Swedish criminal law. In nearly all legal systems there is a requirement of accountability for criminal liability. In order to be accountable you have to possess the ability to understand your actions and to be able to control them. Only then you can be punished for a criminal act. The requirement was removed from th

Inom konkurrensrätten finns sedan länge en diskussion kring de konkurrenssnedvridningar som uppstår i samband med att offentliga aktörer bedriver säljverksamhet i konkurrens med privata aktörer. Snedvridningarna kan härledas till de olika grundförutsättningar som gäller för offentlig respektive privat näringsverksamhet. De kan sällan åtgärdas med förbudsreglerna i 2 kap. 1 och 7 §§ konkurrenslagenIn the field of competition law, there has been a discussion for decades about the distortions of competition that arise when public actors carry on economic activities in competition with private actors. These distortions derive from the different prerequisites that apply to public and private economic activity respectively. The prohibition rules in chapter 2 paras. 1 and 7 of the Competition Act

Vi har arbetat med trådlös kommunikation för att undersöka en möjlig lösning för att streama video från ett fordon i rörelse till en stationär mottagare. Under våra tester så använde vi video-kodnings standarderna H.264 och MJPEG. Vi testade även att använda både WiFi samt LTE som trådlösa medium för att transportera data mellan enheter. Vi utförde sedermera tester på kombinationer av dessa mediumFor our master's thesis we have worked with a company called Uniti to help them establish a system for communicating with their autonomous vehicle during a public demonstration. This included handling a video feed from the vehicle as well as assuring low latency for said feed. For the purposes of this thesis the targeted latency was below 200ms. In order to construct a solution which met our

I dagsläget energiåtervinner vi största delen av vårt producerade avfall i Sverige, men under 1900-talet var deponering en flitigt använd metod att hantera avfall på. Eftersom deponeringen av avfall sedan slutet av 1990-talet minskat kraftigt förväntas produktionen av gas som bildas under avfallets nedbrytning i framtiden att minska. Detta får till följd att dagens lösningar att använda gasen på bLandfill gas, consisting mainly of methane and carbon dioxides, is produced on waste disposal sites which contain organic waste. The release of the gas to the environment gives rise to several environmental effects. Regulation in Sweden requires that the landfill gas is managed in some way, for example to reduce emissions. The management options are energy utilization or flaring. In a situation wi

In industrial circles, in political parties, and in newspapers, there is seldom one reiterating issue that concerns the general public more than the situation of a national economy, as well as how to secure or to undo the practice of it. What is arguably one of the core principals of modern cultures, especially in European societies, not just being a nuclear unit in a bigger economy, but enacting

Frågan om en kriminalisering av psykiskt våld har aktualiserats i flera lagstiftningsprocesser i Sverige. Någon kriminalisering har däremot inte kommit till stånd. I Danmark infördes emellertid år 2019 en ny bestämmelse i straffeloven som reglerar psykiskt våld i nära relationer. I uppsatsen undersöks svenska regeringens respektive danska Justitieministeriets argument som har aktualiserats beträff
