For people with learning disabilities care in institutions has been replaced by a life in community settings e.g. group homes, where a number of persons (4-5) are living with staff support. My case-studies cover three elderly and three more lately produced such units as well as a ward in a nursing home. Data were gathered through participant observations and semistructured interviews with staff an

Popular Abstract in Swedish Beräkningar från Cancerfonden visar på att ungefär var tredje person i Sverige kommer att få en cancerdiagnos under sin livstid. Cancerceller är celler som har utvecklat speciella förmågor som gör att de har börjat dela sig ohämmat. Denna ohämmade celldelning leder till bildandet av en tumör och när tumören har nått ett visst stadie i sin utveckling så börjar den spridaAs a cancer grows it will, at a certain stage of disease progression, start spreading in the body. For several types of cancer this spreading will first occur through the lymphatic system and the first place where metastatic cell will be encountered is the first lymph node that drains the area where the tumor is located. This lymph node is defined as the sentinel lymph node (SLN). By analyzing the

Det rapporteras många fall och spenderas årligen stora mängder av resurser på vattenskador i byggnader i Sverige. Vattenskador som uppkommer på grund av läckage och utströmning av vatten från installationer så som tappvatten-, avlopp- och värmesystem, utrustning så som kylskåp, frysar och diskmaskiner samt läckande tätskikt i våtrum. Vattenskador från dessa system orsakar allvarliga problem i byggA large amount of water damage cases and resources are annually reported and spent on water damage in Sweden from cases occurring in buildings from building services such as tap water-, sewage, heating systems, household appliances such as refrigerators, freezers and dishwashers and inadequate waterproof membranes in wet rooms. These water damage cases in buildings cause several problems in the bu

Under senare år har uppmärksammats ett ökande intresse för regleringen gällande mervärdesskattegrupper i artikel 11 rådets direktiv 2006/112/EG. Möjligheten att ingå i en mervärdesskattegrupp är särskilt betydelsefull inom viss finansiell sektor, undantagen från skatteplikt. Samtidigt kan emellertid konstateras en betydande diskrepans vad gäller implementering och tolkning av artikelbestämmelsen, In recent years, Member States have shown an increasing interest in using the option of VAT grouping provided in Article 11 of Council Directive 2006/112/EC. The possibility of joining a VAT group is particularly useful for entities performing VAT exempt activities, such as companies in the financial sector. At the same time, there is a wide discrepancy in terms of implementation and interpretatio

Frågan om bevisning utgör en viktig fråga även i skiljeförfaranden. I synnerhet skriftlig bevisning är viktig då den överlag anses vara mer tillförlitlig än muntlig sådan. Det är därför av vikt att part får tillgång till all skriftlig bevisning, även sådan som motpart eller annan kan tänkas inneha. Om dessa dokument frivilligt företes av part eller tredje man uppstår inga problem. Problemen börjar

Chemical Loping Combustion (CLC) is a novel combustion technology in which the exhaust gas is inherently divided into oxygen depleted air in one stream and CO2 and water vapour in another. This is however under the ideal condition that the fuel conversion is complete, i.e. all the hydrocarbons in the fuel is transformed to heat, water vapour and CO2. The CO2 capture rate can under such ideal condi

Background: Soils contain the largest stock of organic carbon (C) in terrestrial ecosystems and changes in soil C stocks may significantly affect atmospheric CO2. A significant part of soil C is present in cultivated soils that occupy about 35 % of the global land surface. Agricultural intensification has led to practices that may decrease soil organic carbon (SOC), and agricultural management has

Background and aim: The Barsebäck nuclear power plant (NPP) units ceased operations in 1999 and 2005. Now the NPP is in the phase of decommissioning, which is a complicated process that will take many years to complete. Radiological characterization of the surrounding area is a part of the decommissioning process. The aim of this thesis was to identify and quantify residual anthropogenic radioacti

The aim of the project MASTER (MAnaging Speeds of Traffic on European Roads) was to produce information that can be cited in the preparation of national and EU decisions concerning speed management and speed control equipment standards. For this purpose, the project looked for answers to three key questions: 1)What are acceptable ranges of speeds? 2)What are the key factors influencing drivers’ ch

Importance: Long-term follow-up after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is of interest given that longitudinal data on mortality and durability of transcatheter heart valves are limited. The REPRISE III (Repositionable Percutaneous Replacement of Stenotic Aortic Valve Through Implantation of Lotus Valve System-Randomized Clinical Evaluation) randomized clinical trial compared the mecha

Background: Mental health problems are prevalent among adolescents with severe obesity, but long-term mental health outcomes after adolescent bariatric surgery are not well known. We aimed to assess mental health outcomes over 5 years of follow-up after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery in adolescents who participated in the Adolescent Morbid Obesity Surgery (AMOS) study. Methods: This was a non-ra

IMPORTANCE: The clinical utility of stress cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) in stable chest pain is still debated, and the low-risk period for adverse cardiovascular (CV) events after a negative test result is unknown.OBJECTIVE: To provide contemporary quantitative data synthesis of the diagnostic accuracy and prognostic value of stress CMR in stable chest pain.DATA SOURCES: PubMed

I denna rapport redovisas populationstrender för 224 svenska fågelarter för olika långa tidsperioder, samt korttidstrender för 13 arter av större däggdjur. Fåglarna har räknats höst, vinter, vår och sommar enligt strikt standardiserade metoder. Sommar- respektive vinterpunktrutter har räknats sedan 1975, i huvudsak i södra Sverige. Standardrutterna räknas också på sommaren (sedan 1996) men täcker We present the results of the Swedish Bird Survey, a project run by the Department of Biology, Lund University, as a part of the National Monitoring Programme of the Swedish Environmental Protection Agency. The results for 2023 include data from: 517 winter point counts in 2022/2023 (48th winter), of which 243 were carried out during the Christmas/New Year count, 181 summer point count routes (49t

The ongoing grid paradigm shift has resulted in synchronous generators currently being phased out. As the generators have been providing ancillary services, such as frequency control regulation, this means that new technologies to perform ancillary services need to be developed and evaluated. Electric vehicles (EVs) is an energy source that today is being underutilized. Therefore, research has bee

Background and purpose: During radiotherapy, rectal cancer patients show inter-fractional internal motion that effects the delivered dose distribution. The purpose of this work is to study I) the inter-fractional bladder volume change, II) the effect of bladder volume change on bowel dose distribution, III) the effect of bladder optimization on the relationship between bladder volume and bowel dos

Detta examensarbete undersöker det rättsliga landskapet kring möjligheter att få stöd och service för barn med funktionsnedsättning som har fått tillfälligt skydd i Sverige enligt Massflyktsdirektivet. Detta skedde som ett resultat av Rysslands invasion av Ukraina 2022, vilket ledde till en betydande tillströmning av personer till EU och aktiveringen av EU:s Massflyktsdirektiv för första gången. This thesis examines the legal landscape surrounding the social assistance provided to children with disabilities under temporary protection in Sweden. The aftermath of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in 2022 prompted a significant influx of displaced individuals into the EU. The EU Temporary Protection Directive was activated for the first time. The thesis explores the Swedish legal system’s respons

An LSS resident has been built, a resident with users that suffers from mental disabilities, a passive house by Karnfastigheter. In this project the technology of the passive house concept has been applied on a new area. An evaluation of the passive house Prisman 7 will show if the building works as projected. The energy values are taken from the building when it is in operational condition. The c
