Yogurt is an ancient food, used for a better preservation of milk. Milk gets fermented by Streptococcus thermophilicus and Lactobacillus bulgaricus (lactic acid bacteria, LAB) which converts the lactose present in the milk to lactic acid. These probiotics support the microbial population balance of the gastrointestinal tract. Sweet potato, Ipomoea batatas, is an important security crop in developi
This thesis explores the extent to which international human rights law and international labour law place obligations on States to protect migrant workers’ fundamental rights, especially their rights to social security. More importantly, this thesis examines intra-ASEAN migrant workers’ accesses to the social security benefits, as defined by the ILO Social Security (Minimum Standards) Convention,
The question of secondary liability of internet intermediaries for illegal content online is closely linked to the enjoyment of freedom of expression that has to be guaranteed both online and offline. The provisions concerning internet service providers’ liability in Europe include ‘notice and take down’ procedure, blocking measures and injunctions against intermediaries, which are all well-desi
I Sverige är det idag inte tillåtet med anonym vittnesbevisning från privatpersoner men detta kan komma att ändras i framtiden. Denna uppsats ämnar reda ut hur anonyma vittnesmål förhåller sig till centrala processuella principer i den svenska rätten samt vilken inverkan dessa vittnesmål skulle ha på rättssäkerheten i Sverige om de skulle bli tillåtna. Uppsatsen fokuserar främst på vittnen i broCurrently Sweden doesn’t allow witnesses to appear in court anonymously although some factors indicate that this might be possible in the future. This thesis aims to examine the compatibility between anonymous witnesses and central principles in the Swedish court procedure. The thesis also intends to analyse the impact a new witness regulation, with the possibility to testify anonymously, would ha
I den svenska straffrätten döms allvarligt psykiskt störda brottslingar i regel till rättspsykiatrisk vård istället för fängelse. Om brottet anses ha begåtts ”under påverkan av” den allvarliga psykiska störningen så kan domen förenas med beslut om särskild utskrivningsprövning, vilket innebär att förvaltningsrätten beslutar om utskrivning när den bedömer att individen inte längre har ett vårdbehovIn Swedish criminal law, ”severely mentally disturbed” (allvarligt psykiskt störda) criminals are usually sentenced to psychiatric care instead of prison. If the crime is deemed to have been committed “under the influence” of this mental disturbance, the sentence can be combined with a prescription for “special release inquiry” (särskild utskrivningsprövning). This means that an administrative cou
LTHs 9:e Pedagogiska Inspirationskonferens, 15 december 2016 Strategies for Teaching Students with Heterogeneous Prior Knowledge Emma Fitzgerald∗ Michael Lentmaier∗ Abstract—In this paper we investigate teaching of students with heterogeneous prior knowledge in the context of the international Masters in Wireless Communications program at LTH. To analyse the problem, we conducted a survey and inte

MAX IV Laboratory, inaugurated in 2016, is a Swedish national synchrotron radiation facility that presently has 16 beamlines in operation. MAX IV consists of three accelerators with different characteristics. The 3 GeV storage ring is the world’s first fourth-generation ring and pioneered the use of the multibend achromat lattice to produce ultrahigh brightness X-rays. MAX IV is the continuation o
Estimating and monitoring migratory bird populations involves significant challenges, even in the most well-studied and easily-counted species, and can be further complicated by long-held but unverified assumptions and by shifting distributions in changing flyway conditions. We illustrate these challenges using Bar-tailed Godwits Limosa lapponica on the East Atlantic Flyway. The subspecies L. l. l
INTRODUCTION: This study aimed to adapt the Short Digital Stress Scale (SDSS) into Turkish and to evaluate its psychometric properties in an adult population. Digital stress has become increasingly relevant with the widespread and continuous use of digital technologies, highlighting the need for valid and reliable instruments across cultural contexts.METHODS: A total of 276 adults (72.8% female, 2
CONTEXT: People viewed as "overweight" or "obese" are vulnerable to weight-based discrimination, creating inequities and adverse health outcomes. Given the high rates of obesity recorded globally, studies documenting weight discrimination in multiple countries, and an absence of legislation to address this form of discrimination, research examining policy remedies across different countries is nee
In this paper, we investigate a Multi-layer Aerial system for GenAI inference at the Edge (MAGE). Therein, ground user equipments (UEs) request image synthesis services from a remote base station (BS) that leverages the Latent Diffusion Model (LDM) for image generation. Multiple Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) are deployed to serve the UEs for relaying their images and prompts to the BS. To reduce
AIMS/HYPOTHESIS: The incidence of type 1 diabetes increased during the pandemic in various countries. SARS-CoV-2 infections may trigger the development of type 1 diabetes, but the evidence is inconclusive. This study aimed to assess trends in type 1 diabetes incidence between 2007 and 2023, and to quantify the association between SARS-CoV-2 infections and the risk for developing type 1 diabetes.ME
Purpose: The purpose is to retrospectively investigate how the addition of prior and concurrent mammograms affects wide-angle digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) screening false-positive recall rates, malignancy scoring, and recall agreement. Approach: A total of 200 cases were selected from the Malmö Breast Tomosynthesis Screening Trial. They consist of 150 recalled cases [30 true positives (TPs),
Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer among women worldwide and a leading cause of cancer-related deaths. While most cancer cases are sporadic, approximately 5-10% are hereditary, with early-onset cases being more frequently associated with hereditary factors. They are often linked to mutations in DNA damage repair genes such as BRCA1/2, and their interacting partners, BARD1, BRIP1,
The call is coming from inside: your body’s own defences might be against you Mycobacterium avium is a species of bacteria, closely related to tuberculosis, that can cause pulmonary disease in people. Despite this, we likely come in contact with these microorganisms every day. They can be found in water reservoirs and in the soil, entering the lungs of the host – like humans and rodents – through
Background: Around 95% of all websites selling medicines globally are illegal and contribute to the spread of substandard and falsified medicines. Hence, it is important to identify legal pharmacies when accessing medicines online. During 2022-2024, 250 million prescriptions were legally dispensed in Sweden, and 69% were prescribed in primary care. Pharmacists and general practitioners are key hea
BACKGROUND: Child abuse continues to pose a significant threat to children's health. The repercussions of abuse are profound, impacting the child's physical, social, and emotional well-being, with potential long-term effects that may extend into adulthood. To assist in identifying health concerns in children associated with exposure to physical abuse, a health questionnaire was developed to be use
Key message: A candidate gene exhibiting pleiotropic effect on twelve different seed size and weight traits was identified through a combination of evidence from population genetic selection, GWAS, earlier QTL studies, transcriptome analysis, and transgenic analyses. Abstract: Peanut is an important oilseed crop. Seed weight and size significantly impact yield, leading to the identification of num
The traditional approaches rely solely on temperature measures to assess heat-related health risks; but there is a growing trend towards using bio-meteorological indices for a more comprehensive evaluation. However, the adoption of bio-meteorological indices in developing countries is considerably limited. Therefore, this study compares bio-meteorological index, the maximum Universal Thermal Clima
