This thesis examines the Multifunctional Land Redistribution Fund, launched in March 2020 by the Danish Ministry of Environment and Food, and the outcomes this policy may propel. The Fund takes aim at multiple issues of sustainability related to land use: biodiversity loss, groundwater contamination, nutrient leaching, and rural development. The Fund is to serve as a pilot project for large-scale
Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka hur hot i högerpopulistisk kommunikation påverkar emotioner, attityder och intentioner att handla politiskt. Studien utformades som ett experiment och genomfördes på ett brittiskt urval. Deltagare (N=390) blev slumpmässigt fördelade till tre betingelser: realistiskt hot, symboliskt hot eller kontrollgrupp. Efter att ha läst betingelsespecifika vinjetter svThis study aimed to investigate the influence of threat inducing right-wing populist communication on emotions, attitude and political action intentions. The study applied an experimental design and was conducted on a UK sample. Participants (N=390) were randomly assigned to one of three conditions; realistic threat, symbolic threat or control group. After reading condition-specific vignettes, par
Actio popularis är en talerätt till förmån för någon annan i syfte att skydda ett kollektivt intresse. Principen actio popularis är internationellt kritiserad och är inte erkänd inom internationell rätt. Däremot finns andra verktyg utanför den internationella domstolsprocessen som skyddar kollektiva intressen. Denna uppsats avser att skildra hur actio popularis kan inverka på rätten att föra talanActio popularis is the right to make a judicial claim on behalf of others in protection of a public legal interest. Although actio popularis is criticised and not acknowledged in international law, other forms of protection for public legal interest has been acknowledged outside judicial proceedings. This thesis aims to depict how actio popularis could affect a State’s right to initiate a judicial
The purpose of this case study was to explain the impact of peer education to promote behavioural change in a student community. The ABC behaviours to abstain, be faithful and use condom have been central and unique behavioural approach to reduce HIV infections in the 1990s in Uganda. Behavioural and empowerment theories, including diffusion of innovations, are central for this study. Semi-struc
The present immunohistochemical investigation reveals that difucosylated carbohydrate antigens (DFCA) are extensively expressed in rectal and rectosigmoid carcinomas while normal mucosa and hyperplastic polyps are mainly negative. The adenomas showed intermediate staining patterns where adenomas with villous structures and moderate-severe dysplasia resembled of carcinomas. CEA was more extensively
Background: The evidence about nitrosamines and heme iron intake and cancer risk is limited, despite the biologic plausibility of the hypothesis that these factors might increase cancer risk. We investigated the association between dietary nitrosamines and heme iron and the risk of prostate cancer among participants of European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC). Methods: D
We present a model for developing health services for men who have sex with men (MSM) in sub-Saharan Africa and other places where MSM are heavily stigmatized and marginalized. The processes of the SPEND model include Safe treatment for sexually transmissible infections (STIs) and HIV; Pharmacy sites for treatment of STIs in countries where pharmacies and drug stores are the source of medical advi
Abstract in UndeterminedThis article points to four worrisome aspects of the Court’s reasoning in Rantsev v. Cyprus and Russia. First, the Court takes on board the concept of ‘human trafficking’ without offering any meaningful legal analysis as to the elements of the human trafficking definition. Second, the adoption of the human trafficking framework implicates the ECtHR in anti-immigration and a
A high fat intake, together with an inability to match lipid utilization of a high-fat intake, is correlated with obesity in man. In this review enterostatin, a peptide, which specifically reduces fat intake, is described. Enterostatin is formed in the intestine by the cleavage of pancreatic procolipase, the remaining colipase serving as an obligatory cofactor for pancreatic lipase during fat dige
Production of protein is often accompanied with difficulties due to the large amounts of different biological material resulting from fermentation. This makes purification necessary and affinity chromatography is usually involved as being biospecific, although suffering from limitations as low recovery due to ineffective elution and inability to handle particulate materials. Displacement of lactat
Pancreaticobiliary diversion (PBD) and biliodigestive shunt (BDS) cause long-standing hypercholecystokininemia followed by pancreatic hyperplasia. These changes have been suggested to be due to the lack of intraluminal trypsin and bile, respectively, in the upper small intestine. The aim of these experiments was to study the effect of restoration of intraluminal trypsin and bile on plasma levels o
We examined the association between fruits and vegetables and risk of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) in the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC). Dietary intake data and complete follow-up information on cancer incidence were available for 375,851 participants recruited in EPIC centers of 8 countries. During an average follow-up of 6.2 years, 306 incident cases of RCC we
Popular Abstract in Swedish En ny typ av reaktor för kemikalie och läkemedelsproduktion är under utveckling av Alfa Laval AB, ett svenskt företag som är en världsledande tillverkare av värmeväxlare. Den nya reaktortypen, som kallas för plattreaktor, kombinerar den höga värmeöverföringsförmågan från plattvärmeväxlaren med den effektiva mikro-mixningen av kemikalier som är typisk för en mikro-reaktoA new chemical reactor, the Alfa Laval Plate Reactor, is being developed by Alfa Laval, a Swedish world-leading heat exchanger company. The plate reactor combines the high-heat-transfer capabilities of plate heat exchangers with the efficient mixing and reaction control typical of microreactors. With this new concept, highly exothermic reactions can be produced using more concentrated reactants an
Objective: The association between consumption of fruit and vegetables and risk of ovarian cancer is still unclear from a prospective point of view. Methods: Female participants (n = 325,640) of the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition study, free of any cancer at baseline, were followed on average for 6.3 years to develop ovarian cancer. During 2,049,346 person-years, 581
Hereditary angioedema (HAE), a rare but life-threatening condition, manifests as acute attacks of facial, laryngeal, genital, or peripheral swelling or abdominal pain secondary to intra-abdominal edema. Resulting from mutations affecting C1 esterase inhibitor (C1-INH), inhibitor of the first complement system component, attacks are not histamine-mediated and do not respond to antihistamines or cor
Previous rock magnetic investigations of oceanic basement samples have been mainly restricted by single drill holes of dredge collections. In this study, we present new and published data on the rock magnetic properties of igneous rock samples recovered during seven Ocean Drilling Program (ODP) legs in the Atlantic, Pacific, and the southern Indian oceans. The recovered igneous rocks from these le
This paper compares the extraction effectiveness of six different commonly applied extraction techniques for the determination of PCBs in soil. The techniques included are Soxhlet, Soxtec, ultrasonication extraction, supercritical fluid extraction, microwave-assisted extraction and accelerated solvent extraction. For none of the techniques were the extraction conditions optimized, but instead the
Dietary fibre and fat affect colonic tumourigenesis and inflammation. Sphingomyelin metabolism may have implications for the pathogenesis of colonic tumours and ulcerative colitis. The present study examined the effects of psyllium and fat on the enzymes responsible for sphingomyelin metabolism and apoptosis in the colon. Mice were fed control, psyllium-containing (100 g/kg), high-fat (313 g/kg, 5
