På grund av den ökande förekomsten av fetma och fetmarelaterade sjukdomar, såsom diabetes och förfettning av levern, har intresset för olika diagnostiseringsmetoder av dessa sjukdomar också ökat de senaste åren. Då man dessutom har upptäckt att det finns en relation mellan sjukdom och fettsammansättningen (mättat, enkelomättat och fleromättat fett) i exempelvis levern, har intresset för att kunna The increasing prevalence of obesity and obesity related diseases in this modern world has resulted in a lot of research in the area of water-fat separation with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Since the introduction of the two-point Dixon technique, this area of research has expanded and relationships have been discovered between fat content and fatty acid (FA) composition, and diseases such as

Homosexuella par fick möjlighet till juridiskt föräldraskap 2003 som en följd av den statliga utredningen SOU 2001:10 Barn i homosexuella familjer. När ett kvinnligt samkönat par genomgår en insemination inom den svenska offentligt finansierade sjukvården kan föräldraskapet för den kvinna som inte föder barnet fastställas genom dom eller bekräftelse. Om paret genomgår inseminationen i privat regi Homosexual couples in Sweden have had access to legal parenthood since 2003, as a result of SOU 2001:10 Barn i homosexuella relationer (Swedish Government Official Reports series 2001:10 Children in homosexual relationships). When a female same-sex couple undergo insemination at a state-run facility, the parenthood of the woman not carrying the child can be settled through a court judgement or thr

In recent years, Deep Learning has proven to be an outstanding tool in the field of computer vision showing promising results in different fields such as the analysis of medical images, obstacle detection for self-driving cars, automatic image caption generation, etc. In the case of Archaeology, the adoption of these methods in the detection of archaeological structures from aerial images has been

Herbert William Heinrich is one of the most influential pioneers within safety. His concepts, originally from the late 1920s, influence safety practice and theory, even today. In recent years, Heinrich’s legacy received increasing critique, also from contemporary safety authors that generally are counted among the ‘new view’. The objective of this thesis is to explore how ‘new view’ thinkers/autho

Skatterättslig företrädaransvar innebär att en företrädare för ett bolag blir solidariskt betalningsansvarig med bolaget för dess obetalda skatter. När Skatteverket upptäcker obetalda skatter hos bolag och anser att företrädaren har agerat uppsåtligen eller grovt oaktsamt ansöker de om företrädaransvar hos förvaltningsrätten. Företrädaren kan sedan bli befriad från betalningsansvaret om särskilda Liability of a representative within the area of tax law means that a representative of a legal entity becomes jointly liable with the company for the company's unpaid taxes. When the Swedish Tax Agency discovers such an unpaid tax, they apply for liability of a representative at the administrative court if they consider that the representative has acted intentionally or grossly negligently.

År 2014 antogs direktiv 2014/65EU, även kallat MiFID II. Direktivet reglerar bland annat hur finansiella institut ska organisera sin verksamhet för att skydda kundernas intresse i de fall kunderna handlar med finansiella instrument. Direktivet är skrivet med ett starkt kundskydd och harmoniserad inre marknad som mål. Två år senare, 2016, antogs direktiv 2016/97, även kallat IDD. IDD är motsvarandeThe financial crisis 2008 revealed several weaknesses in the regulation on the financial markets. It was evident that a new, stricter, regulation was needed to be created. Directive 2014/65EU, MiFID II and directive 2016/97, IDD, is a part of the new financial regulation. MiFID II regulates how financial institutes can interact with investors, when investors seek to buy or sell financial instrumen

The low-carbon benefits and emissions savings from circular economy (CE) strategies are not yet well understood, yet are crucial for global development within Planetary Boundaries. Using the mineral fraction of waste incinerator bottom ash (MIBA) as construction material in road construction is one application of a CE strategy that could lead to environmental gains by substituting energy-intensive

Hotet från terrorism har under 2000-talet ökat. Den 7 april 2017 blev ökningen ännu mer markant, då ett terrordåd inträffade i Stockholm. Strax efter denna händelse tillsatte regeringen en utredning för att utreda om ytterligare lagstiftning på området än den redan relativt omfattande regleringen som fanns behövdes. Utredaren kom man fram till att kriminalisering av deltagande i en terroristorganiThe threat from terrorism has during the 21st century increased. When an act of terror occurred in Stockholm on the 7th of April 2017, the threat got even more apparent. Terrorism legislation has for a long time been a well-regulated area in Swedish law, however soon after this incident the Swedish government assigned an investigation to see if further legislation in the area was required. In the

I Sverige utgår de flesta transaktionsavtal från att köparen inte får åberopa garantiavvikelser som denne känt till innan avtalsslutet (anti-sandbagging). En stor del av de amerikanska transaktionsavtalen utgår i stället från att köparen får åberopa garantierna oavsett vad köparen känt till innan avtalsslutet (sandbagging). Den rättsliga effekten av sandbagging i Sverige är oklar och syftet med miNormally parties in Swedish transaction agreements agree that the buyer can´t invoke warranties if the buyer knew about warranted defects before closing (anti-sandbagging). In US it´s more common that the warranties apply regardless of buyers knowledge (sandbagging). The legal effect of agreeing on sandbagging in Sweden is unclear today. My purpose has therefore been to investigate the legal effec

Innovation är ett vidkänt koncept som har fått ökad betydelse i dagens organisationer. Uppmärksamhet har framförallt riktats till de initiala faserna av innovationsprocessen, kallade Fuzzy Front End (FFE). Att hantera FFE effektivt har blivit nödvändigt i utvecklingen av nya innovativa produkter, eftersom det kan minska cykeltider och kostnader relaterat till produktutvecklingen. Det är dock svårtInnovation is a widely known concept which has received increased importance in today's organizations. Attention has especially been directed to the initial phases of the innovation process, commonly referred to as the Fuzzy Front End (FFE). Managing the FFE effectively, has become essential in the development of innovative products, since it can reduce cycle times and costs related to product

Under de senaste 10 åren har cirka en miljon människor sökt asyl i Sverige varav hela 163 000 enbart under 2015 när den stora flyktingvågen tog fart i världen. Detta satte stor press på Sveriges hantering av flyktingar och framförallt kommunernas bostadsförsörjningsansvar. Den 1 mars 2016 införde regeringen beslutet att kommunerna är skyldiga att ta emot ett visst antal nyanlända i syfte att ge deDuring the last 10 years approximately one million people have applied for asylum in Sweden and 163 000 only during the big stream of immigrants in 2015. This put a huge pressure on the Swedish management of immigrants and the housing for this group of people. The 1st of March 2016 the Swedish Government introduced a law where the Swedish municipalities are obligated to receive a certain number of

As multistressors have been shown to have significant effects on biodiversity and ecosystem functioning, the following study was made with the purpose of examining how a number of stressors specifically connected to climate change may have varied during the latest 65,5 million years and whether it is possible to predict potential effects on global biodiversity in the future. The analyses focused o

Bostik AB has long had a production where parts of the production are done manually. These parts include that an employee needs to lift a rubber pulp from a conveyor belt, twist and put the rubber pulp into a pallet. The employee should then put on a plastic patch between each layer. This process can in the long run be unhealthy for the employees who will carry out the movement because repeated li

The purpose of this master thesis in practical theology is to investigate the reasons for choices of hymns made by parents baptising their children in the Church of Sweden. From earlier data on baptisms and hymns we do know which hymns are most commonly chosen, but no one to date has interviewed parents on their choices. The method used is semi structured interviews of eleven parents whose childre

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is an arrhythmia distinguished by irregular heartbeats, which has seen a significant rise in prevalence globally. Due to the risk of strokes, the condition necessitates early detection and intervention to prevent severe complications, highlighting the critical role of early and precise detection techniques.
