BACKGROUND: Statins have been suggested to protect against breast cancer risk, but the observational evidence is inconclusive. We examined the association between statin use and breast cancer incidence among women at higher risk of breast cancer due to a history of benign breast disease (BBD).METHODS: Using Danish registries, we identified cancer-free women aged ≥50 years during 1996-2018 with a h

The chemical forms of zinc in fly ash from municipal solid waste incineration (MSWI) crucially affect ash management, influencing both material recovery options and the risk of unwanted leaching into ecosystems. The zinc speciation was investigated in fly ash samples sourced from full-scale MSWI plants, including four grate fired boilers (GB) and one fluidized bed boiler (FB). We applied X-ray Abs

A photoelectron, emitted due to the absorption of light quanta as described by the photoelectric effect, is often characterized experimentally by a classical quantity, its momentum. However, since the photoelectron is a quantum object, its rigorous characterization requires the reconstruction of the complete quantum state, the photoelectron’s density matrix. Here we use quantum-state tomography to

Radiolabeled targeting agents have emerged as valuable tools for the treatment of disseminated cancer. Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) are widely employed as carriers for diagnostic and therapeutic radionuclides due to their exceptional specificity and affinity. However, their prolonged circulatory half-life can diminish diagnostic efficacy and increase radiation exposure to non-target tissues in the

The emission spectra from the ablation of airborne alumina nanoparticles by a 532 nm nanosecond pulsed laser are investigated to clarify the underlying mechanism and the applicability of different laser diagnostic techniques such as the laser-induced incandescence (LII) and the laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS). The particles were observed to be completely ablated above the laser fluence

Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) technology can detect molecular information; Because of its high sensitivity, it is widely used in chemical analysis. In this study discussed the experimental detection of 1,4-diethynylbenzene molecule based on SERS technology. The SERS spectra of 1,4-diethynylbenzene molecule were calculated by Density Functional Theory (DFT) simulation, and the results sh

INTRODUCTION: Trust in healthcare is central to the delivery of care and unequally distributed between groups in society. Experiences of perceived discrimination have been associated with lack of such trust. Although the importance of trust in healthcare has been highlighted in recent years, studies in this area are relatively scarce.MATERIALS AND METHODS: We investigated the risk of low trust in

Mantle plumes are subject of a great discussion within the field of Geology. Do they really exist, and in that case, from where do they originate? The scope of this Bachelor thesis is to discuss the characteristics of mantle plumes and the arguments in favor of and against their proposed existence. The mantle plume hypothesis was first presented in 1971 by Jason Morgan, suggesting diapirs of hot r

Förbudet mot köp av sexuella tjänster har varit i kraft i 16 år. Den debatt som åtföljt lagstiftningsarbetet kan dock sägas ha pågått under närmare 40 år. Det är en debatt med starka ideologiska förtecken och det är tydligt att prostitution är en fråga som inte lämnar någon oberörd. Uppsatsens syfte är utreda vilka ideologiska värderingar och skyddsintressen som återfinns i lagstiftarens syn på pThe Swedish prohibition of the purchase of a sexual service has been in effect for 16 years. The debate accompanying the legislation process has, however, been going on for almost 40 years. It is a debate with a strong ideological nature and it is clear that prostitution is a phenomenon that leaves no one unaffected. The aim of this essay is to investigate which ideological values have affected th

Enligt svensk rätt ska utländska äktenskap erkännas om de är giltiga enligt lagen i det land de ingåtts. Undantaget till detta är om äktenskapet går emot svensk ordre public. Huruvida så är fallet för polygami är fortfarande osäkert. Det här arbetet kommer inte beröra huruvida Sverige bör ha en begränsning på antal äktenskap eller inte, utan fokus ligger på den svenska hanteringen av utländska polAccording to Swedish law a foreign marriage is recognized if it is valid under the law of the state where it was entered into. The exception to this is if such a marriage is void as a matter of public policy. Whether or not that applies to polygamy is still uncertain. This thesis will not touch upon whether or not Sweden should have a restriction on the number of parties in a marriage; instead it

Att ha förtalat någon är att ha begått ett brott. Men processrätten kring förtalsbrottet skiljer sig från vanliga brott. Om brottet varit tillräckligt kvalificerat tar åklagare över åtalet som ett allmänt åtal men om det inte nått upp till denna gräns har det ålegat den enskilde att väcka åtal. Det är främst den typen av brott som inte nått upp till gränsen för allmänt åtal som denna uppsats tagitTo have slandered someone is to have committed a crime. But the procedure surrounding the crime of slander differs from regular crimes. If the crime is considered qualifying enough a prosecutor will take over the case as general prosecution but if the crime hasn’t lived up to that level it’s up to the individual to arouse individual prosecution. It’s mainly the type of offense that doesn’t qualify

Denna uppsats undersöker hur systemet för ersättning av rättegångskostnader i förvaltningsprocessen förhåller sig till rätten till en rättvis rättegång. Denna uppsats undersöker också vilka möjligheter som finns för att få ersättning för rättegångskostnader i förvaltningsprocessen genom en separat skadeståndsta-lan i allmän domstol. För att svara på frågeställningarna tillämpas rättsdogmatisk metoThis thesis examines the system for reimbursing legal costs in the administra-tive law proceedings and how it relates to the right to a fair trial. It also inves-tigates the possibilities for obtaining reimbursement of legal costs in adminis-trative proceedings through a separate damages claim in a general court. To address the research questions, a legal dogmatic method is applied, with a signif

Ett vattenskyddsområde vad är det egentligen? Jo, runt om i Sverige finns det idag områden med speciella förhållanden som är skapade för att skydda vårt grundvatten. Dessa områden har speciella regler som måste följas. Reglerna är enormt viktiga och reglerar bland annat lantbruken inom dessa områden gällande hantering och användning av kemikalier. Olika dispenser för användningen finns även inom oThis study investigates the relationship between the use of pesticides within Ängelholm Municipality’s largest water protection area and the levels of these substances in the drink-ing water. With a growing population and modern lifestyle, society has developed a de-pendency on continuous food production, which in turn has led to increased use of pesti-cides to ensure stable harvesters. This can h

En aktieägare har inget personligt betalningsansvar för aktiebolagets förpliktelser. Bolagets borgenärer har således endast bolagsförmögenheten som säkerhet för sina fordringar på bolaget. På grund av detta är det viktigt att en sådan förmögenhet tillförs bolaget då det bildas och att denna förmögenhet sedan stannar kvar i bolaget under verksamhetens gång, detta för att skydda borgenärerna. Det ärA shareholder has no personal liability for the obligations of the limited company. The creditors of the company have only the company assets as a collateral for their claims against the company. Therefor, it is important that capital is contributed to the company when it is founded and that the capital stays in the company during the activity, and this to protect the creditors. Owing to this, ref

With the foreign political turbulence after the fall of the Berlin Wall, the world came into a change. The post-cold war environment meant that the politics of the bipolarity no longer were the case. This period leads to pressure in redefining Sweden’s foreign and security policy, resulting in an emergence of a different commitment to the countries neutrality and non-alignment. In the light of Kje

Purpose: The purpose of this thesis is to examine if there are financial purposes for companies to create sustainability reports, by comparing the quality of sustainability reports with profitability for swedish public companies, listed on Nasdaq OMX Stockholm, that are subject to the 6 chapter 10 § Annual Accounts Act by the year of 2018, that earlier haven’t created a sustainability report.
