This thesis orbits around the changes in the Swedish abortion laws during the last century, and the relation to religion. The aim is to make visible the values enshrined in the first abortion law, and those in the current abortion law, as the legislation made a volte-face in the 1970’s. Today, abortion is a right and the state is the duty-bearer. This construction collides with the conscience of r

Specifically, WP6 examines the pilots' innovation and governancearrangements that help implementation and scaling of aqua thermal energy (AE) systems in real-worldcontexts. The work is therefore primarily based on lessons learned through a mixed methods approach

Laminins are basement membrane components that regulate a plethora of biological processes. Despite decades of research, the exact roles of laminins in different tissues and in organogenesis remain to be elucidated. Here, we investigated the function of laminin γ1 chain in heart, lung and other tissues by generating a mouse that lacks laminin γ1 in cells expressing SM22α (Tagln) (LMγ1 flox/SM22α C

Från år 2021 ska alla nybyggnationer i Europa vara nära-nollenergibyggnader. Detta innebär att byggnaders energianvändning bör vara låg och i mycket hög grad tillförs i form från förnybara energikällor som produceras på plats eller i närheten. Syftet med de höga energikraven är att påskynda takten för att skapa ett mer energieffektivt byggande. Den minskade energianvändningen tillsam-mans med en öFrom year 2021, all new buildings in Europe will be net zero-energy buildings. This means that the building's energy is supplied from renewable energy sources that are produced on site or nearby. The purpose of the high energy requirements is to accelerate the pace of creating more energy-efficient constructions. The reduced energy consumption, together with increased use of renewable energy,

Background: Working life is an important arena in most people's lives, and the working line concept is important for the development of welfare in a society. For young people, the period before permanent establishment in working life has become longer during the last two decades. Knowledge about attitudes towards work can help us to understand young people's transition to the labour market. Adoles

High blood pressure (BP) is associated with cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Both genetic and environmental factors are implicated in BP homeostatsis and hypertension development. The aims of the present theisis were: (a) to test if ambulatory BP (ABP) is better than office BP (OBP) to capture the heritable part of BP and if BP variability (BPV) measured by ABP monitoring is a heritable tra

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to revise the concept of positioning to differentiate between fundamental approaches to it and chart a scheme of schools of positioning. Design/methodology/approach – An extensive literature review traces the roots and evolution of the concept. Two approaches to positioning are explored and related to the paradigms of market and brand orientation. Based on c

The secondary structure of proteins is crucial for proper function of the protein in biological systems. Peptide T, an octapeptide from the envelope glycoprotein gp120 of the HIV virus, has previously been shown to be responsible for binding to the CD4 receptor on T helper/inducer lymphocytes. NMR studies showed that the four C-terminal amino acid residues of peptide T adopted a beta-turn conforma

QuestionHow do pollen-based functional and phylogenetic diversity help to explain post-glacial vegetation change in relation to climate and human influence? LocationEstonia and Latvia, NE Europe. MethodsWe used a data set of 1062 pollen samples from 20 sites covering the last 14500yrs to estimate plant richness, evenness, functional and phylogenetic diversity (community-weighted mean and mean pair

Popular Abstract in Swedish Potatis har varit, och är fortfarande ett viktigt baslivsmedel i svensk kosthållning. Det finns många sorter med olika egenskaper vilket bidrar till dess variationsrikedom. Potatisen är en rik källa till stärkelse, kostfibrer samt vitaminer och mineraler, t ex C-vitamin och järn. En invändning mot potatis ur nutritionell synvinkel är att stärkelsen lätt bryts ned av enzDespite decreased consumption potatoes still constitute an important staple in the Swedish diet. An objection to potatoes and potato products from a nutritional point of view is the ease by which the starch is digested and absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract. This results in unfavourably high glycaemic and insulinaemic responses (glycaemic index, GI and insulinaemic index, II, respectively). Su

Popular Abstract in Swedish BAKGRUND Fokus riktas allt mer mot försörjningskedjan och allt mindre mot det enskilda företaget i takt med att konkurrens mellan enskilda företag ersätts av konkurrens mellan försörjningskedjor. Det är emellertid endast det enskilda företaget som kan fatta beslut och vidta åtgärder, men dessa beslut och åtgärder måste idag ske utifrån ett kedjeperspektiv. Med ökat foBackground Today's modern, industrialized society is based on globalization, specialization and mass-production. It is a society dependent upon highly integrated, continuously ongoing supply chain flows. Disruptions in those flows may cause devastating negative consequences, both for the individual company, for the supply chain, and for the society at large. Purpose and objectives The purpose o

Over the last 40 years, the concept of resilience has made a journey from the fields of ecology and psychology into the social sciences. By now, it has become a term commonly used in the international climate change adaptation and development spheres, describing the ability of an individual or a community to cope with or recover from harmful events. Critics have raised concerns about this spread,

In my thesis work I have explored the relationship between site and building. As the focal point for my studies I have had a, too me, very familiar site in the outskirts of the village of Höör in the centre of Skåne. e site has been the property of my grandfather who took care of the place until he got to old to do it. I spend a lot of time here when visiting my grandparents as a kid. Today my mot

En ökad tillgång till och användning av information utmanar både de tekniska system och den lagstiftning som finns idag. Det är därför viktigt att det finns säkra och transparenta digitala tekniker för transaktioner och informationslagring samt lagstiftning som hanterar detta. Genom blockkedjeteknik kan parter registrera och verifiera transaktioner, dokument och avtal med fullständig tillit trots An increased access to and use of information challenges both the technical systems and the legislation there is today. Therefore, it is important that there are secure and transparent digital techniques for transactions and storage of information and a clear legislation on the matter. Through the blockchain technique, parties can register and verify transactions, documents and contracts with full

We think much of a current consumption is strongly based on various types of loans every person should have an idea about how the loan approval mechanism works. Because everybody wants to know if they have a possibility of getting a loan approval, almost all banks’ web pages have a maximum loan calculator, which gives a client a maximum loan amount he/she could borrow at a current date given certa

Public procurement - which can shortly be explained with the government's activity of purchasing goods and services - presents one of the largest economic markets in the world, accounting, on average, for 15 per cent of the gross national product (GDP) worldwide. One of the most controversially debated issues regarding public procurement is that of procurement linkages. The questions evolve ar

Ribonucleotide reductases (RNR) are key enzymes for transformation of RNA building blocks (NTPs) to DNA building blocks (dNTPs), an essential step in biological systems. RNRs are known to be the first enzymes identified with free radical chemistry and play an important role in having a tight control over dNTP levels, as these DNA building blocks are needed for vital cellular processes such as cell
