Syftet med denna uppsats har varit att undersöka om en marknadsanpassad socialtjänst lyckas uppfylla socialtjänstlagens intentioner om att arbeta förebyggande med unga narkotikamissbrukare. För att få svar på detta har jag dels studerat hur en sådan kommunal organisation fungerar i förhållande till lagstiftningen, dels hur många ungdomar det rör sig om som under ett år kommer i kontakt med socialt
Abstract Abstract Author: Lama Akkache and Linnea Svensson Title: The professional meeting between social worker and client [translated title] Supervisor: Kristina Göransson Assessor: The purpose of this study was to examine if and how cultural differences between the social worker and client may have an effect on the professional meeting. More specifically the aim was to find out if the client a
The transition from animal-based to plant-based proteins is rapidly increasing because of different concerns about meat consumption, some being the nutritional and environmental effects of meat consumption. During this transition, there needs to be a holistic approach to assessing plant-based food. This master thesis is focused on investigating the nutritional and environmental impact of three pla
De perspektiv av blankningslagstiftningen som kommer att lyftas fram i uppsatsen är inte enbart de nationella utan även de europeiska. Den europeiska harmoniseringen har inte uppnått så stora resultat på det skatterättsliga området, vilket beror på den starka suveräniteten som funnits historiskt när det gäller ländernas egna skattesystem. Fokus kommer i huvudsak att ligga på de skatterättsliga effThe perspectives of short-selling rules that will be highlighted in the paper are not only national but also European. The European harmonization has not achieved such great results in the tax area, which is due to the strong sovereignty that existed historically in terms of countries own tax system. The focus will mainly be on the fiscal impact of the phenomenon of short selling, but also the civ
This report is a study on the effects pyrotechnically generated aerosols, PGA, has on electrical components and our health. Experiments were conducted in small and full scale at Lunds tekniska högskola and the Swedish rescue service’s school at Revinge. The experiments were conducted using only one type of PGA with exception for the full scale experiments in wich two types were used. The experimen
We have in our thesis examined energy system for small houses for Skanska Teknik AB. The environment is a current issue in our society and buildings from the past are rarely energy effective, since many houses built during the seventies had heating based on oil or direct electricity. In new buildings it is more and more important to be energy efficient, to meet the demands from our future environm

This essay is a statistical analysis on the patients at the rheumatology clinic of Lund. We investigate whether effects of the treatment differ depending on the patient’s diagnosis, sex, age and drug. Diagnoses included in this study are rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, spondarthritis, juvenile chronic arthritis and arthritis. The drugs we investigate in this study are Mabthera inf, Cimz
In this paper I have investigated what factors that may affect the recruitment, such as whether the applicant is a recent graduate, parent of young children, have been trained abroad or approaching retirement. I also want to investigate how the choice of candidates is affected if there is surplus, balance or a shortage of labor as it is for cultural secretaries, for the physical education teachers
Antibiotic resistance poses a global threat. Antibiotics are administered to 80-90% of terminally ill patients but evidence of their effectiveness in improving survival or symptom relief at the end of life (EOL) is scarce. To determine the proportion of deceased patients that continue antibiotic treatment after documented EOL discussion and the decision to prioritise symptom relief over active tre
BackgroundImmune-related hepatitis (ir-hepatitis) ranks among the most frequent adverse events of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs). Limited knowledge exists regarding the incidence, characteristics, and treatment of patients having an inadequate response to initial therapy with steroids. Characterizing ir-hepatitis phenotypes and treatment responses can provide valuable insights for guiding tre
Quantification using the Centiloid (CL) scale has become a valuable information to consider when interpreting amyloid-PET images and is now implemented in several software packages. This work aims to assess the comparability of CL from [18F]flutemetamol scans derived using several research and commercial quantification pipelines. Methods: This analysis relies on three datasets: a test-retest cohor
BACKGROUND: Long COVID has emerged as a global health challenge, with increasing evidence of cardiovascular sequelae. Most previous studies have focused on hospitalised cohorts, whereas cardiovascular risk in community-managed long COVID cases remains less explored. We aimed to investigate the incidence of major cardiovascular events in individuals with long COVID compared to those without long CO
Background: Knowledge is increasing about TSC-Associated Neuropsychiatric Disorders (TAND), but little is known about the potentially confounding effects of intellectual ability (IA) on the rates of TAND across age, sex, and genotype. We evaluated TAND in (a) children vs. adults, (b) males vs. females, and (c) TSC1 vs. TSC2 mutations, after stratification for levels of IA, in a large, internationa
Apart from the substantive public procurement rules, harmonising national provisions for the award of public contracts, the Community also strives to ensure compliance with those rules. For that purposes the Remedies Directive 89/665/EEC has been adopted to ensure that effective and rapid remedies are available to aggrieved bidders. This directive has recently been amended by Directive 2007/66/EC
The regulation of the European parliament and the Council (EG) nr. 864/2007 on the law applicable to non-contractual obligations is known as Rome II. Rome II contains a conflict rule in art. 7 which determines the law applicable to a claim involving environmental damages connected with more than one state. This conflict rule does not only apply to cases of damage to property and persons, but also
Background: The global plant-based food shift puts high pressure on manufacturing capacity at facilities like Oatly's Landskrona site. This environment faces high combinatorial complexity due to growing product variety and sequence-dependent cleaning requirements. Relying on manual, experience-based planning to navigate these rules limits throughput and introduces organisational risk. Purpose
Childhood cancer aetiology is poorly understood and is considered to originate in utero and early postnatal life. In this study, we investigated perinatal characteristics as potential risk factors by performing a population-based case-control study, including 1340 cancer cases diagnosed < 19y and born between 1989–2021 in southern Sweden, and 13400 controls matched by sex, year, and municipality o
Biodiversity hotspots are biogeographic regions exceptionally rich in endemic species showing high rates of habitat loss, making them the priority of global conservation efforts. As part of the biodiversity hotspot with the highest density of endemic species, the West Usambara Mountains in Tanzania require an efficient and resourceful monitoring solution. This thesis aimed to model the tree specie
BackgroundInflammation and tyrosine-kinases are known mediators in the pathobiology of cardiovascular disease. Plasma biomarkers reflecting these systems may provide a noninvasive complement reflecting hemodynamics, aiding in clinical decision-making. We therefore aimed to investigate the plasma levels of vascular and inflammatory proteins, and their associations with invasive hemodynamics in adva
