Relict spinel grains (similar to 25-250 mu m in diameter) from decomposed extraterrestrial material in Archean to Recent sediments can be used to reconstruct variations in the flux of different types of meteorites to Earth through the ages. Meteorite falls are rare and meteorites weather and decay rapidly on the Earth surface, making it a challenge to reconstruct ancient fluxes. Almost all meteori
Alla människor har rätt till hälsa enligt artikel 12 Konventionen om ekonomiska, sociala och kulturella rättigheter (ICESCR) och artikel 35 i EU:s rättighetsstadga (stadgan). För många människor är läkemedel livsviktiga. Emellertid har läkemedelsbolag med patenträttigheter en möjlighet till fri prissättning. Företag behöver tjäna pengar för att kunna forska fram nya produkter och läkemedelsbolag kAccess to pharmaceuticals can be vital for a lot of people. The public’s right to health is ensured by article 12 of the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights (ICESCR) and by article 35 of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European union (the EU Charter). However, pharmaceutical companies with patent rights can charge whatever price they want on medicines. Companies
In the last couple of decades in Sweden, there has been an adoption of “workfare”-oriented policy approaches to unemployment (as opposed to the former, less conditioned welfare-oriented ones). Consequently, labour market policies more and more have started to encompass the Social Services Department (in Swedish; “socialtjänsten”). In Scandinavia, active labour market policies are commonly referred
MAX-lab is a synchrotron radiation laboratory run in cooperation between Lund University and the Swedish Research Council. It currently consists of three stor-age rings, however, construction has begun of the fourth. MAX IV will be located outside of the Lund University Faculty of Engineering campus, in the northeastern part of Lund. Induced by the development in material technology at the nanomet
Runt om i världen pågår en omställning av energisystem på internationell, nationell och regional nivå av en omfattning som inte noterats på många årtionden. Omställningen innebär i första hand en övergång från fossila, icke förnybara energikällor till fossilfria, förnybara sådana med huvudsakligt syfte att begränsa de antropologiska klimatförändringarna och andra negativa effekter på miljön. Den f
Genom samhällsutvecklingen utmanas gamla sjukdomsbegrepp och lagar. I medierapportering och forskning har självskadebeteende uppmärksammats allt mer. Självskadebeteenden kan ta olika uttryck och även sex har påvisats kunna utgöra ett medel för att skada sig själv. Idag finns det medicinsk forskning om sex som självskadebeteende och rättsvetenskaplig forskning om tillämpningen respektive tolkningenSocietal development is constantly challenging old concepts of disease and law. In media reporting and medical research, self-injurious behavior has received increased interest. Self-injurious behavior can be expressed in various forms. Sex as self-injury is a new concept in the research field and the current knowledge of sex as self-injury did not exist when the Care of Young Persons Act, hereaft
I studien undersöks utmaningar och förbättringsförslag relaterade till arbetsmiljö, säkerhet och kommunikation inom byggindustrin för utländska arbetstagare, med extra fokus på länderna Polen och Litauen. Fri rörlighet för arbetstagare inom EU, som fastställs av artikel 45 i EUF-fördraget, möjliggör lika tillgång till både arbetsmöjligheter och behandling oavsett nationalitet. Syftet med studien The study examines challenges and improvement suggestions related to the work environment, safety, and communication within the construction industry for foreign workers, with a particular focus on Poland and Lithuania. The free movement of workers within the EU, as established by Article 45 of the treaty on the functioning of the European Union, ensures equal access to both employment opportuniti
Interactions between metals and natural organic matter (NOM) are of great environmental importance and one of the key factors influencing hydrolysis, solubility, and speciation of the metals. However, studying geochemically relevant metals like Al, Fe, and Cu is sometimes associated with analytical problems; for example Fe and Cu are both redox active. Gallium (Ga) is a non-redox active metal that
In 1997-2003, a protocol for treatment of acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) (except promyelocytic leukaemia) was activated in four Swedish health care regions covering 50% of the national population. Based on cytogenetics and clinical findings, patients aged 18-60 yr were assigned to one of three risk groups. In this report we account for the long-term clinical outcome of enrolled patients. Patients r
NMR relaxation experiments have provided a wealth of information about molecular motions in macromolecules and ordered fluids. Even though a rigorous theory of spin relaxation is available, the complexity of the investigated systems often makes the interpretation of limited datasets challenging and ambiguous. To allow physically meaningful information to be extracted from the data without commitme
In the future atmospheric CO2 concentrations might exceed 550 ppm according to the RCP8.5 scenario by mid-century from our current 410 ppm, while our world population is projected to surpass the 9.7 billion threshold within the same time span. This challenge leads to the raising of questions addressing future food security. Elevated CO2 has been shown to not only increase photosynthetic rates in
Radiotherapy is commonly used for cancer treatment, given to approximately half of all cancer patients in Sweden. Despite its widespread usage, there is currently no non-invasive and reliable imaging method that can identify regions of radiation resistance. These regions may be identified by hypoxia, given that radiobiological research has demonstrated a significant correlation between oxygen leve
Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka integrationsklausulen utifrån ett svenskt civilprocessrättsligt perspektiv. En integrationsklausul syftar till att visa att det skriftliga avtalsdokumentet utgör avtalsparternas fullständiga avtalsförhållande. Således ska det skriftliga avtalet ersätta alla tidigare förhandlingar, diskussioner och andra sådana prekontraktuella mellanhavanden som förekommitThe purpose of this paper is to analyze the integration clause from a Swedish civil procedural perspective. An integration clause is typically intended to show that the written contract is the entire agreement between the contracting parties. It thus supersedes all agreements, discussions and other such pre-contractual dealings that were undertaken before the establishment and signing of the writt
In some postmodern philosophy and theology, the view of God has returned to the centre of the discussion. God is seen as a living reality beyond human conception. Some of the contemporary philosophers even relate to the negative or apofatic theology. They often do this as a contrast to the positive theology. The view of God in postmodern theology and philosophy is beyond our rational knowledge. Th

The starting point of our thesis is the new Education Act (Skollagen) which was introduced in Sweden during 2011. It requires that all students have access to a school library, regardless of the type of school. Since the new Education Act’s (Skollagens) introduction, the school library has received a statutory basis and thus a stronger position in today’s schools. However, the Act does not define

Popular Abstract in Swedish Artros i knäleden är en av de tio vanligaste orsakerna till smärta och funktionshinder hos vuxna. Ett av problemen med artros är att det är svårt att diagnosticera vid ett tidigt stadium. Det kan synas som förändringar på röntgen, men ofta inte förrän flera år efter att det utvecklats. Mina studier visar att det finns ett samband mellan muskelfunktion i benen och riskenThe overall purpose of this thesis was to explore the impact of exercise and functional performance on development and treatment of knee osteoarthritis in the middle aged. In this thesis, I have studied a population based cohort of middle-aged subjects (35-54 years, 42 % women) with chronic knee pain at baseline, to evaluate the longitudinal effect of muscle weakness on knee osteoarthritis develo
A number of deleterious health effects have been identified from exposure to outdoor air-borne particulate matter. This issue is complicated by the fact that people are spending most of the time indoors, where particles of both indoor and outdoor origin are present. The aim of this work was to assess the differences in particle chemical composition inside and outside of the residence and gain bett
