För att en användare ska ha rätt att utnyttja ett upphovsrättskyddat verk krävs tillstånd från upphovsmannen. Inom vissa verksamheter utnyttjas stora mängder av upphovsrättskyddade verk som behöver klareras. Det kan vara tidskrävande och dyrt att införskaffa individuella tillstånd för dessa. De nordiska länderna har löst detta problem genom att införa ett avtalslicenssystem. Avtalslicensen är ett In order for a user to exploit a copyright protected work, permission needs to be obtained from the author. In certain fields, large amounts of copyright protected work are exploited. To acquire individual permits is both time consuming and expensive. The Nordic countries have solved this problem by introducing a system of extended collective licenses (ECL). An ECL is an agreement between an organ

En ökad medvetenhet om värdet av ett rent grundvatten yttrar sig i allt fler sammanhang, bl.a. i det nationella miljömål om grundvatten av god kvalitet som riksdagen presenterat. Simrishamns kommun ser över vattenskyddsområdena runt kommunens grundvattentäkter för att säkerställa ett rent grundvatten. Målet med detta examensarbete är att ta fram ett underlag som skall kunna ligga till grund för av

BackgroundUniversity students experience a distinct working environment in the context of completing their studies. In line with existing research into the connection between workplace environment and stress, it is rational to believe that such study environments can affect the level of stress that students experience. However, few instruments have been developed for measuring this.ObjectiveThe ai

Introduction: Female surgeons remain a minority within the field of orthopaedics, particularly in certain specialties such as arthroplasty. There is no scientific evidence on whether the surgeon's sex affects the patient-reported outcome after orthopaedic surgery such as total hip arthroplasty (THA). We therefore aimed to investigate the association between surgeon sex and health-related quality o

Background: Dizziness and vertigo affect around 15% of adults annually and represent common reasons for contacting health services, accounting for around 3% of all emergency department visits worldwide. Vertigo is also associated with excessive use of diagnostic imaging and emergency care and decreased productivity, primarily because of work absenteeism. Vestibular rehabilitation is an evidence-ba

Background Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) require lifelong treatment. The aim of the present study was to investigate adherence to disease-specific treatment in patients with PAH or CTEPH.Methods The study comprised an adult population diagnosed with PAH (n=384) or CTEPH (n=187) alive in 2016–2017. The study utilised three registries

Today, innovation is a key word for many universities, as it constitutes an important part of most universities’ public and scientific interaction with society. Many universities are striving to increase the number of innovations spun out. At many universities, innovations are thought of as being sprung from research projects and generated by researchers. However, Sandström (2014) claims that whil

BACKGROUND: Hospital performance, presented as the comparison of average measurements, dismisses that hospital outcomes may vary across types of patients. We aim at drawing out the relevance of accounting for patient heterogeneity when reporting on hospital performance.METHODS: An observational study on administrative data from virtually all 2009 hospital admissions for Acute Myocardial Infarction

Background Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) of heart transplant recipient- and donor-derived cardiac biopsies may facilitate organ matching, graft failure prediction, and immunotolerance research. The objective of this study was to determine the feasibility of WGS based on formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded endomyocardial biopsies. Methods and results The study included serial donor- and recipient samp

Wolcott-Rallison syndrome is a rare genetic syndrome of neonatal diabetes, liver failure, and growth retardation. We present a case with a EIF2AK3 p.(Arg902Ter) mutation, additionally complicated by hypothyroidism, impaired renal function, and exocrine pancreas insufficiency, focusing on clinical management. For its optimization, thorough care of multiple organ systems is needed.
