Nontypeable Haemophilus influenzae (NTHi) is a remarkably proficient colonizer of the human respiratory tract. The aim of this thesis has been to characterize currently known, and identify novel, bacterial factors involved in the key processes of colonization and pathogenesis, namely adherence to host tissue and evasion of the host innate immunity. We have shown that the NTHi virulence factor Pr
The Basel III regulatory framework was created in direct response to the financial crisis that occurred in 2007-2008. The regulatory framework in place during and before the crisis, Basel II, had not done enough to prevent the crisis. This prompted a revision and expansion of the regulations. The regulators created a new framework, which was initiated in January of 2013 and is expected to be fully
Syftet med den här uppsatsen är att argumentera för en individuell föräldraförsäkring. Den svenska föräldraförsäkringen studeras utifrån ett rättighetsperspektiv, något som tidigare har saknats. Föräldraförsäkringen är idag en grupprättighet och stor del av min teori har därför kretsat kring grupprättigheter och individuella rättigheter. I analysen av förarbetena till föräldraförsäkringen blir det
The employer’s right to rule is always a burning topic and many employers are currently not as familiar with the subject as they perhaps should be. High demands are placed on the employer in an employment relationship with employees, who also apply to employees. At the same time, the employer has been given, through the employer’s right to rule, the right to freely manage and allocate work in the
Problemfomulering: Ystad, som är beläget längs Skånes sydkust, har länge varit utsatt för kusterosion. När det blåser över Östersjön genereras vågor som orsakar uppspolning och direkt erosion av klitterna på stranden. Ett av de mest utsatta områdena är Ystads Sandskog, beläget öster om Ystads centrum. Här karakteriseras strandprofilen av en relativt kort strand med klitter som skyddar den låglänta

bstract The real estate sector in Sweden has long been characterized by high entry barriers, strict regulations, and a high demand for large initial capital. These factors make it challenging for new ventures to succeed in the market. With this background, it seems relevant to understand which driving factors can be related to entrepreneurial success. This study researches how specific characteris
Background: Gender differences in palliative care is an under-researched area, both internationally and in Sweden. A regional pilot study by our research group indicated that men have greater unmet palliative care needs prior to referral. Building on these findings, the aim of this study was to examine gender differences in the quality of care received at the end of life within specialized palliat
The role of market-specific factors in driving business model adaptation during international expansion has received limited scholarly attention, particularly among early-stage start-ups in the agricultural biotechnology industry. Therefore, this study asks how market-specific factors influence business model adaptation during internationalization in the agricultural biotechnology sector, thereby
This thesis examines how principles associated with direct democracy are transformed when citizen participation is organised through digital platforms. It compares Riketsröst, an early-stage voting initiative intended for local use in Vellinge, with Malmöinitiativet, an institutionalised municipal e-petition system. The purpose is to analyse how the two cases enable agenda-setting, communication a
Introduction Prevalence of planned pregnancies varies between countries but is often measured in a dichotomous manner. The aim of this study was to investigate to what level pregnant women had planned their pregnancies and whether pregnancy planning was associated with background characteristics and pregnancy-planning behavior. Material and methods A cross-sectional study that utilized the baselin
Resident skin micro-organisms such as S. epidermidis and other coagulase-negative staphylococci (CoNS), are by far the most common causes of biomaterial-associated infections. These micro-organisms often exhibit surface adhesins that specifically bind serum and tissue proteins adsorbed to implanted biomaterials. The aim of this study was to extend our knowledge about such adhesins produced by CoNS
In 2009 the EU approved two directives as a first initiative towards reducing greenhouse gas emissions and becoming independent of fossil fuels: the Renewable Energy Directive and the Fuel Quality Directive. As a result, the demand for biofuels will increase enormously over the next decade, both nationally and in the entire EU. This huge demand will require a more advanced type of biofuels, produc
