Background: The Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) plays a central role in immunity and has been given considerable attention by evolutionary ecologists due to its associations with fitness-related traits. Songbirds have unusually high numbers of MHC class I (MHC-I) genes, but it is not known whether all are expressed and equally important for immune function. Classical MHC-I genes are highly
Background: In observational studies, men with prostate cancer treated with gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonists had a higher risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) compared to men who had undergone orchiectomy. However, selection bias may have influenced the difference in risk. Objective: To investigate the association of type of androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) with risk of CVD while m
Background: Oral anticoagulation therapy is recommended for the prevention of recurrent ischemic stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). Current guidelines do not provide evidence-based recommendations on optimal time-point to start anticoagulation therapy after an acute ischemic stroke. Non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants (NOACs) may offer advantages compared to warfarin becaus
Jupiter Trojans are a resonant asteroidal population characterised by photometric colours that are compatible with trans-Neptunian objects, high inclinations, and an asymmetric distribution of the number of asteroids between the two swarms. Different models have been proposed to explain the high inclination of the Trojans and to interpret their relation with the Trans-Neptunian objects, but none o
If you live in Sweden (and I guess you do), there is a two in three chance that youhave shopped online at least once in the last month. You may also know that inSweden on average, each of us spends over 3000 SEK per month buying goods andservices online. It is expected that over 2 billion people will be shopping online bythe year 2020, thus generating a global revenue of 4.1 trillion USD. One imag
N-acylated substituted β 3 oligoamides are known to form unique supramolecular nanorods based on a 3-point hydrogen bond self-assembly motif. This motif is an intermolecular extension of the hydrogen bonding network that stabilizes the 14-helix secondary structure unique to β 3 oligoamides. Acetylation of the N-terminus of the molecule provides the necessary third hydrogen bond pair of the motif.
Animal coloration is a multifaceted trait with many ecological roles and related to a variety of developmental and physiological processes. Consequently, coloration is often subject to a variety of selective pressures, leading to the evolutionary maintenance of variation. In this study, we investigated hypotheses related to the maintenance of dorsal color variation in wood frogs (Rana sylvatica).
Background: Topical probiotics have been suggested as a treatment option for allergic rhinitis, as they may skew the immune response towards a beneficial type-1 non-allergic profile. So far observations in man have exclusively involved oral intake. The aim of this study was to examine whether a topical/nasal administration of a probiotic assemblage (PA) affects quality of life, symptoms and signs
The aim of this master’s thesis is to examine how national archival legislation affects the archival profession in the practical work regarding digital archive solutions. In addition to this aim, we also explore to which extent the archival professionals have the ability to influence the digital archive solutions at their workplace. The subjects for our research have been the Swedish and Danish na
Den sakkunniges roll är att hjälpa domstolen vid bevisvärderingen genom att tillhandahålla sin sakkunnigkunskap. Det har i flera olika sammanhang framförts kritik mot att domstolar inte kritiskt granskar sakkunnigutlåtanden. Vid mål som rör våld med dödlig utgång utgör den rättsmedicinska obduktionsrapporten en viktig del i bevisningen. Ur rättssäkerhetssynpunkt är det viktigt den rättsmedicinska The role of the expert witness is to assist the court in the assessment of evidence by providing expert knowledge. Yet it has been alleged that courts do not critically review expert opinions. From a legal certainty point of view, it is essential that forensic evidence is correctly assessed and that forensic medical examiners and legal practitioners understand one another. In homicide cases the me
Det primära syftet med offentlig upphandling har varit att på bästa sätt hushålla med den offentliga sektorns pengar, varpå det avgörande för huruvida en anbudsgivare tilldelas ett kontrakt ofta är ifall den tillhandahåller den upphandlade tjänsten till lägst pris. Det har enligt kritiker lett till att arbetsgivare som betalar sämre löner och färre förmåner till sina anställda premieras då deras lThe primary purpose of public procurement is to spend money from the public sector wisely and efficiently and thereby reduce waste. The purpose creates a situation where the contract award decision is based primarily on lowest price. According to critics, this leads to a situation where employers who provide their employees with fewer benefits and lower wages than the national average have an adva
Syftet med uppsatsen är att utreda förutsebarheten i rättsläget för hets mot folkgrupp. Förutsebarhet är ett grundläggande kriterium för rättssäkerhet. Inte minst gäller detta yttrandefriheten med sin särskilt starka ställning i svensk rätt. För att uppnå uppsatsens syfte görs en rättsutredning av rättsläget för hets mot folkgrupp, vars resultat senare analyseras utifrån förutsebarhet enligt Åke FThe aim of this paper is to evaluate the predictability of the Swedish law that prohibits the spreading of threats or disdain against certain groups of people, known as hets mot folkgrupp. While hate speech is a commonly used term for such phenomena, its use is not appropriate in this context because of its limited scope. Hets mot folkgrupp encompasses a broader variety of scenarios. Predictabilit
Aktieägaravtal existerar i gränslandet mellan aktiebolagsrätt och avtalsrätt. Till följd av det uppkommer svåra frågor om vilken verkan avtalet anses medföra, och vilka faktorer som påverkar ett ställningstagande i frågan. Länge har det hävdats att aktiebolagsrättsliga överväganden inte inverkar på den obligationsrättsliga verkan av aktieägaravtal. Det synsättet har motiverats av en föreställning When determining the implications of shareholder agreements, both company law and contract law are applicable. At times, it is not always clear which law should take precedent when both are potentially applicable to an issue arising from the agreement. Traditionally, it has been argued that considerations relating to company law do not affect the shareholder’s obligations to each other arising fro
Inom omsorgsverksamhet uppstår ibland situationer där personalen ser en frihetsberövande åtgärd som nödvändig för att fullfölja sin omsorgs- och tillsynsplikt. Denna uppsats syftar till att utreda hur gränsen dras mellan brottsliga och icke brottsliga frihetsberövanden inom nyss nämnda kontext. I avsaknad av särskild reglering med relevans för bedömningen är allmänna straffrättsliga regler och priIn health and social care services situations may arise where the staff considers deprivation of liberty to be a necessary measure to fulfil their supervisory and care duties. This essay aims to examine how the line between criminal and noncriminal deprivations of liberty is being drawn in the context of health and social care. Whereas no specific regulations of relevance for the issue exist, gene
This research set out to examine if participation can improve the management of water resources in rural Jordanian communities. Jordan is second most resource-scare country in the world, and is facing significant increase in demand for water as a result of the arrivals of refugees from the Syrian conflict. The purpose of this work is to delineate the role of participation as a facilitator for impr
Om naturagäldenären i ett avtal delegerar vidare sin prestationsskyldighet enligt avtalet till en tredje part uppkommer en så kallad kontraktskedja. I praktiken är dessa vanligt förekommande, inte minst vid entreprenadavtal där en generalentreprenör kan anlita en mängd olika underentreprenörer för att uppfylla avtalsförpliktelsen mot beställaren. Om en sådan tredje part, det vill säga det bakre leWhen the debtor of a contract delegates his duty to perform under the contract to a third party, a chain of contracts is created. This type of chain of contracts often appears within construction agreements, when the contractor enters into an agreement with a sub-contractor in order to fulfil his obligations towards the employer. If this third party commits a wrongful act, which causes harm to the
Rådande klimatkris kräver lösningar. Företagsmarknadens aktörer har bl.a. genom fenomenet klimatkompensation visat på en vilja att ta sitt ansvar i krisen och kompensera för deras befintliga utsläpp. Den klimatkompensation som redogörs för i uppsatsen innebär att företag finansierar projekt som är miljömässigt fördelaktiga och beräknas kompensera för samma andel utsläpp som företaget bidragit tillThe current climate crisis requires solutions. Solutions that not only are dictated by the government, but ones that also engage corporations. Currently, many companies are showing a willingness to take responsibility in the crisis and mitigate their emissions through imposing phenomena such as climate compensation. While there are many broad definitions within the scope of taxation law; as define
In today's world, it is essential to understand how customer in-store experiences can be successfully transferred to online environments for international jewelry retailers to master their digital transformation. Further, there is an apparent lack of extensive research about the jewelry retailing industry and its customers in academia despite its prominence in the business world. Therefore, th
Observing in the infrared has many benefits, such as seeing through the interstellar dust in the galaxy, easier use of adaptive optics, and better flux ratios for direct observations of exoplanets. Before the infrared spectral range can be utilised for highly accurate stellar spectroscopy there is a need for a better understanding of both stellar modelling and the atomic physics that go into formi
Kring millennieskiftet dömde HFD ett antal mål som väckte stor diskussion inom den skatterättsliga doktrinen. Målen rörde frågan om hur en civilrättslig rättshandling eller rättshandlingar den skatteskyldige hade vidtagit skulle bedömas. Det som väckte debatt var hur HFD hade kommit fram till att avtalen skulle tolkas på ett annat sätt vilket kom att kallas rättshandlingens verkliga innebörd. OlikIn this essay, I have researched if the Supreme Administrative Court has used the economic consequences of a civil act to reinterpret the civil actit in terms of taxation. I have chosen three cases where the issue has been tried. In conclusion, I can reasonably inferdetermine that there is no such method in swedish law. Rather, the court is making an interpretation of the act which is consistent w
