In this thesis, I concentrate on dispersal, inbreeding and fitness in natural populations. I consider dispersal ra

Abstract—Service Level Agreements (SLA) are considered a good practice not only for IT outsourcing but also for IT management within an organisation. In this paper we study the usage of SLAs in municipal IT management. Municipal IT management traditionally involves a large organisation, often with a low IT maturity, but with high requirements on software quality and information security. In this s

The paediatric nasopharyngeal flora is regarded as the largest reservoir for Streptococcus pneumoniae, and the carrier state is always antecedent to infection and a prerequisite for dispersion of these bacteria. Pneumococci are the predominant aetiology of bacterial respiratory tract infections and a major cause of morbidity and mortality, in the most severe cases due to invasive pneumococcal dise

Today type 2 diabetes is a common disease with a worldwide prevalence of 8.3%. The disease is characterised by hyperglycaemia which is a result of insufficient insulin secretion from the beta-cells in the pancreatic islets as well as an insulin resistance seen in the target tissues. Type 2 diabetes is a multifactorial disease with genetic, epigenetic and environmental background. In study I we in

Despite the fact that venous thromboembolism (VTE) is an important cause of morbidity and mortality there is still insufficient information on VTE risk factors and patient characteristics in the general population. Previously published incidences of VTE (deep venous thrombosis [DVT] and pulmonary embolism [PE]) vary from 71 to 192 per 100,000 individuals per year. Incidences of DVT and PE have bee

Medborgarskapslagens 11 § innehåller de vägar en utlänning kan bli medborgare i Sverige genom det som kallas naturalisering.

Dessa krav, och till viss del om medborgarskapet och dess historia i allmänhet, kommer framöver avhandlas. Störst fokus kommer ligga på

När sambo B bidrar med ett ekonomiskt tillskott eller en arbetsmässig insats för att förbättra egendom som sambo A äger sedan innan samlevnaden kan samborna avtala om att insatsens ekonomiska värde ska utgöra en gåva eller en försträckning. Situationen är dock inte alltid så klar. Den nära personliga och ekonomiska gemenskap som ett samboskap i regel innebär medför att situationen kan hamna någonsWhen cohabitant B contributes with a financial contribution or a work contribution to improve property that cohabitant A owns since before the cohabitation, the cohabitants can agree that the financial value of the contribution shall constitute a gift or a loan. However, the situation is not always so clear. The close personal and financial community that a cohabitation usually entails means that
