Unsafe abortion is a major contributing factor to maternal mortality with 47,000 largely avoidable deaths occurring globally every year, the majority in the global south. Ethiopia has taken a unique approach to addressing maternal mortality impacted by unsafe abortion through a 2005 reform of the abortion legislation in which abortion is illegal but available under a range of exceptions. The purpo
Emojikulturen - Emotionalisering och församtaligande av skriftlig medierad kommunikation är författad av Hannah Busch och Emma Olausson, vid Institutionen för kommunikation och medier vid Lunds universitet. Studiens syfte har varit att utmana föreställningen om att förmågan att kommunicera känslor i medierad kommunikation gått förlorat i och med den ökade digitaliseringen, genom att undersöka vad
The issue of alcohol and drug testing in the workplace has become an increasingly prominent and complex issue. With an increase in such tests in recent years, the debate about the balance between control and privacy has intensified. On the one hand, employers seek to minimize risks associated with alcohol and drug use by creating a safe and drug-free work environment. On the other hand, workers fa
NJA 2015 s. 702, ofta kallat Balkongmålet, har under åren väckt stor uppmärksamhet till följd av fallets introduktion av en ny bevisprövningsmetod. Modellen har kommit att kallas ”Balkongmetoden” och innebär att domstolen i första hand tar hänsyn till bevisningen till stöd för gärningsbeskrivningen. Bara i de fall åklagarens bevisning i sig uppnår beviskravet vägs denna mot bevisningen som talar tEver since the ‘Balcony case’ introduced a new way of evaluating evidence, the method has been a subject of debate. The evaluation model, known as the ‘Balcony method’, offers a step-by-step structure that initially reviews the evidence presented by the prosecutor. Only if this evidence independently meets the evidentiary requirement may the court continue to the next step of the evaluation and ta
Fängelse på livstid tillämpas som påföljd för flera brott enligt svensk lag. Majoriteten av de livstidsdömda har begått brottet mord, som regleras i 3 kap. 1 § brottsbalken. Under de senaste åren har denna paragraf ändrats två gånger, och ytterligare en ändring har nu föreslagits, i syfte att skärpa straffen och öka tillämpningen av livstids fängelse som påföljd för mord. Syftet med uppsatsen ärLife imprisonment is used as a penalty for several crimes in Swedish law. The majority of those sentenced to life imprisonment have committed murder. This crime is regulated in chapter 3, paragraph 1 in the Swedish Penal Code. In recent years, the legislators have expressed a will to change this paragraph. Two changes have been made so far, and another amendment has been proposed, in order to incr
Innan 1994 fanns ingen lagstadgad rätt till personlig assistans. Efter den s.k. Handikapputredningen år 1989 kom ett lagförslag som utmynnade i Lag (1993:387) om stöd och service till vissa funktionshindrade (LSS). Enligt denna lag skulle de funktionshindrade som hade krävande och omfattande hjälpbehov ha rätt till en personlig assistent. Försäkringskassan blev beslutsmyndighet för att avgöra huruBefore 1994 there was no legal right to a personal assistant in Sweden. After the so-called Handikapputredningen in year 1989, Lag (1993) om stöd och service till vissa funktionshindrade (LSS) was instituted.* According to this law, the disabled people who had exigent and extensive needs would have right to a personal assistant. The Swedish Social Insurance Agency (SSIA) became the agency responsi
The paper examines the relationship between non-formal education activities and youth employability in the Republic of Armenia. A case study has been conducted in order to identify soft skills competitive in the labour market and see to what extent non-formal education increases youth productivity thus helping them get engaged in the job market. Another thing that the paper aims to study is the ro
Abstract Background: The WHO advises against recumbent or supine position for longer periods during labour and birth and states that caregivers should encourage and support the woman to take the position in which she feels most comfortable. It has been suggested that upright positions may improve childbirth outcomes and reduce the risk for instrumental delivery; however RCTs of interventions to en
I såväl media som inom myndigheter och organisationer har det under de senaste åren i allt högre grad uppmärksammats att migrerande arbetskraft inom jordbruket/den gröna näringen eventuellt används på ett sätt som kan strida mot arbetsrättsliga och sociala regleringar.Avsikten med föreliggande studie är framförallt att sammanställa den forskning som finns avseende olika arbetslivs- och arbetsmiljö
Förenta nationernas klimatpanel indikerade redan år 1990 att klimatförändringarnas största inverkan kan vara på mänsklig migration. Idag är fenomenet med klimatinducerad migration redan en realitet och det förväntas bli allt mer akut under de kommande åren med miljontals människor på flykt från sina hem och samhällen. Ändå är situationen för klimatflyktingar, en kategori människor som i nuläget saThe Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) indicated already in 1990 that the greatest impact of climate change could be on human migration. At present, the phenomenon of climate-induced migration is already a reality and it is expected to become increasingly urgent in the forthcoming years with millions of people displaced from their homes and communities. Yet, the situation of climate
Pinus sylvestris (tall) är en betydelsefull trädart i Sverige och Europa, både ekonomiskt och kulturellt sett. Trädet infekteras dock av den destruktiva rottickan (Heterobasidion spp.) vilket resulterar i stora ekonomiska förluster inom skogsindustrin, med en uppskattad monetär förlust på ca 800 miljoner EUR årligen i Europa. Det är svårt att upptäcka svampen i tidiga infektionsstadier eftersom inPinus sylvestris (Scots pine) is an important tree species in Sweden and Europe, both economically and culturally. However, the highly destructive root rot fungi Heterobasidion spp. infect P. sylvestris and cause major economic losses in the forest industry, estimated to about 800 million EUR annually in Europe alone. Detection of the fungus in early stages is hard, as the infection mainly stays i
Under de senaste åren har det politiska intresset av en satsning på inhemska energiråvaror samt ett minskat utsläpp av växthusgaser ökat i Sverige. Genom dessa intressen anses torv kunna ha en betydelse i omställningen mot ett mer uthålligt svenskt energisystem. I takt med att torvens värde som energikälla uppmärksammats har även de myrområden som hyser detta lager av ofullständigt nedbrutna växtd
Cosmological models and their parameters are widely debated, especially about whether the current discrepancy between the values of the Hubble constant, H 0, obtained by Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) and the Planck data from the cosmic microwave background radiation could be alleviated when alternative cosmological models are considered. Thus, combining high-redshift probes, such as gamma-ray bursts
Aim: To describe fathers’ lived experiences of caring for their preterm infant at the neonatal unit and in hospital-based neonatal home care after the introduction of an individualised parental support programme. Method: Seven fathers from a larger study were included due to their rich narrative interviews about the phenomenon under study. The interviews took place after discharge from neonatal ho
It has repeatedly been shown that consumers consider the higher price of organic produce to be a barrier to buying organic food products. The present paper therefore asks whether organic consumption affects consumers’ actual total food expenditures. Food purchase data for a panel of Danish households during 2006–2014 were used to compare the total food expenditures of different organic household sIt has repeatedly been shown that consumers consider the higher price of organic produce to be a barrier to buying organic food products.

The results of a search for new heavy W′ bosons decaying to an electron or muon and a neutrino using proton–proton collision data at a centre-of-mass energy of s=13 TeV are presented. The dataset was collected in 2015 and 2016 by the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider and corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 36.1 fb-1. As no excess of events above the Standard Model prediction is
As an effective strategy to control the combustion of advanced combustion modes, the application of variable valve timing (VVT) in reactivity controlled compression ignition (RCCI) combustion was investigated in this study. By coupling KIVA-3V code with genetic algorithm, the combustion of a heavy-duty engine with RCCI combustion combined with VVT strategy was optimized under a wide load range. At
Background: The LUCAS™ device delivers mechanical chest compressions that have been shown in experimental studies to improve perfusion pressures to the brain and heart as well as augmenting cerebral blood flow and end tidal CO2, compared with results from standard manual cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). Two randomised pilot studies in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest patients have not shown impr
