Metal contamination of lakes can bring negative effects to aquatic biota, and to the general health of the ecosystem. Urban discharge is a known source of common metals. In cold regions, snow disposal sites further enhances the risk of contaminating recipient lakes, due to accumulation of pollutants. The importance of this source is poorly known and is further investigated in this study. Metal con
Ett antal flodskärningar undersöktes längs Logatafloden och dess omkringliggande områden för att ge en ökad förståelse om de senaste istiderna för denna del av världen. De påträffade sedimenten vittnade om en marin miljö efter en isframstöt och därefter en landhöjning som ledde till dagens flod- och tundralandskap. Det finns många teorier angående hur utbredd inlandsisen var över arktiska SibirieA number of sites were investigated in river sections along the Logata River on the Taymyr Peninsula, Russia, and its adjacent areas to shed more light on the glaciation history over the last glacial cycles. The sediments exposed at the investigated sites are correlated and put into a local stratigraphic scheme divided into five main units. Unit 1 is positioned lowest in the stratigraphy and con
I södra utkanten av Lomma, längs den långgrunda bukten sträcker sig Öresundsparken. En kort promenad från Alnarp mellan böljande fält. På andra sidan svänger Malmövägen över landskapet. Bakom fyra upprätta flaggstänger ligger ett ljusblått vägcafé. Skylten finns kvar men fönstren är igenspikade. Verksamheten satt på paus. Mellan plattsättningen börjar smala björkar tränga upp. Ljudet av svischande
Popular Abstract in Swedish Vilka uppfattningar fanns under tidigmodern tid i Sverige om relationen mellan man och kvinna? Ansåg man att kärlek och parternas fria val var viktigt när människor skulle gifta sig? Vad hände då äktenskapen inte fungerade? Förekom skilsmässor? Varför var sexualiteten kontrollerad och hur påverkade det kvinnor och män? Vilken effekt hade förändringar i lagstiftningen i What did people think about the relationship between a man and a woman in Early Modern Sweden? Did they consider love and the parties' free choice to be of any importantance in the making of a marriage? What happened when marriages were falling apart, how common were divorces? I also discuss why sexuality was restricted, and how it affected women and men. What effects did changes in the legislatio
Introduction: The proportion of elderly patients who are undernourished is high and undernutrition has serious health implications. No consensus exists regarding nutritional screening measurements suitable for elderly patients. There is a need to identify risk factors for undernutrition in elderly patients to enable prevention and treatment. Aim: To identify clinically identifiable risk factors fo
Strain stability of plasmid-containing recombinant organisms is clearly important for industrial applications. Stability is normally assessed by methods such as selective colony forming units or by simply measuring the recombinant product. These methods are typically performed off-line, are time-consuming, and do not give detailed information on the changes in the metabolism. In the current work,
När ett offentligt organ ägnar sig åt offentlig upphandling torde huvudsyftet vara att tillfredsställa ett behov av varor, tjänster eller byggentreprenader. En utgångspunkt för offentlig upphandling är att det är den upphandlande enheten som identifierar sitt behov och således avgör vad som ska upp¬handlas. Utöver syftet att tillfredsställa sitt primära upphandlingsbehov kan en upphandlande enhet When a public body engages in public procurement the main purpose for it to do so is arguably to satisfy a need for goods, services or works. A starting point for public procurement is that it is the procuring entity which identifies its own needs and thus determines what is to be procured. In addition to the purpose of satisfying its primary procurement needs, a contracting entity, however, may h
När den europeiska konventionen angående skydd för de mänskliga rättig-heterna och grundläggande friheterna (EKMR) inkorporerades genom vanlig lag i svensk rätt, ville lagstiftaren inte att balansen mellan den lagstif-tande och den dömande makten skulle förskjutas. Huvudansvaret för fören-ligheten mellan EKMR och annan intern rätt föll därför på lagstiftaren, vilket manifesterades i grundlagen. KoWhen the European Convention of Human Rights and Fundamental Free-doms (ECHR) was incorporated by law in the Swedish legal system, the intent was to maintain the relation between the legislative power and judici-al power. The legislature is forbidden to legislate in violation of the ECHR. If domestic law is considered to be in conflict with the ECHR, the conflict should, if possible, be solved by
ABSTRACT The domestic violence among lgbt - persons is a social problem and should be treated as such. Until now it has not been investigated as much as domestic violence amongst heterosexuals. This despite the fact that it is known that between 20 and 50 % (Alexander 2002) of homosexual couples have suffered from it. In other words it is as common as within heterosexual couples. The science and r
Kenya is one of the most corrupt countries in the world due to a long legacy of corrupt leaders. It is so visible that it is impossible for a citizen or even a visitor to deny its presence. By travelling to Nakuru, Kenya, my aim was to explore individual attitudes and actions towards corruption and to see if these attitudes and actions affected the survival of the patron-client theory. Another aim
Entrepreneurship among immigrants is an old phenomenon that is caused by migration processes. It is receiving special attention due to the fact that its potential in contribution to countries‟ economies is huge. In European context it is a reason and a cause of international mobility, immigrant policies, integration issues and diversified society composition. Studying of immigrant entrepreneurship
The purpose of this thesis is to understand if the picture of wealth in Matthew 27:57, where Joseph of Arimathea is described as rich, is coherent with the picture of wealth that appears in the rest of the Gospel of Matthew. This is investigated through an analysis of passages in the Gospel of Matthew, which implicitly or explicitly are associated with wealth. The greek word πλούσιος that depicts
This is a study of the Swedish governments control over pathologicalized bodies. I have carried out a genealogical analysis of Swedish government official reports concerning forced sterilizations. The purpose of the study was to find out in which ways the Swedish government controls and restricts “certain kinds” of bodies when it comes to reproduction. With theoretical influences from Judith Butle
The energy transition of housing is accelerating in parallel with economic inequality reaching historically high levels. There is thus an opportunity to reduce inequalities in living conditions, but also a risk that the costs of the transition are unequally distributed and aggravate existing inequalities.

Abstract Objective. Population-based data on the impact of bacterial infections on the course of compensated and decompensated cirrhosis as well as the occurrence, predictors of infection-related acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) and its fatal outcome are limited. Material and methods. All patients with incident cirrhosis in the period 2001-2010, residing in an area of 600,000 inhabitants, wer
Objective: This multiple case study investigated support and process in the Individual Placement and Support (IPS) approach from individual client, longitudinal and Person-Environment-Occupation (PEO) model perspectives. Participants: Five IPS-participants, or cases, with severe mental illness (SMI) who worked a minimum of 4 hours a week entered the study. Methods: A multiple data collectio
Background and Objective: Waste in clinical trials remains rife. We developed an economic model to predict the cost of trials based on input costs, duration, power, number of sites, recruitment eligibility and consenting rates. Methods: We parameterised the model for three proxy placebo-controlled surgical trials using data from a systematic review, a bespoke cost survey, and from the literature.
The transport sector accounted for 37% of global CO2 emissions from end-use sectors in 2021. For the transport- and road freight sector to contribute to emissions reduction targets while still meeting the foreseen increase in transport demands, decarbonization will play a key role. This study focus on battery-electric heavy-duty trucks and the objective is to provide an overview of policy instrume
Background: Cardiac surgery carries a heightened risk of bradyarrhythmias, but current permanent pacemaker (PPM) implantation estimates rely on non-contemporary studies. This study primarily aimed to explore the incidence and indications for PPM implantation at 30 days and 1 year after different cardiac surgical procedures in a modern cohort. Secondary outcomes were PPM incidence at 10 years and t
Mate finding and dispersal from the natal patch in parasitoid Hymenoptera are influenced by the availability of host resources and interactions with other organisms. We compared the mating behavior of three solitary aphid parasitoids, Aphidius ervi Haliday, Lysiphlebus hirticornis Mackauer and Pauesia pini (Haliday) (Hymenoptera: Braconidae: Aphidiinae) that differ in host resource exploitation an
