The European Union’s sugar policy is one of the most distorting policies within the common agricultural policy. It includes import control, production quota, and export refunds to support producer price within the EU at levels high above international prices. The main beneficiaries of the support system are the EU sugar industries and EU beet growers, but they are not the only producers benefiting
This paper discusses five major parameters in desalination, namely technology, raw-water, energy sources, cost and environmental effects. Both size and yield have grown rapidly in desalination plants due to high performance in technology developments in the last few years. Five different types of desalination technology are presented and bench-marked for long-term use: multistage flash evaporation
Abstract in Undetermined Packaging is of particular importance to retailers, since it can be considered an integral part of the product and the first point of contact with the brand (Rundh 2005). Over 73% of interviewed consumers rely on packaging to aid their purchasing decisions (Wells et al. 2007), and retailers are the ‘gatekeepers’ to the consumers (Dobson et al. 2003) via the retail stores,
Dumping is generally considered an unfair practice and through the Antidumping Agreement of the GATT many governments offer protection to domestic producers against dumped goods. In 1992 and 1998 large amounts of steel entered the U.S. at low prices, and large amounts of antidumping investigations were initiated in order to curb the surge of imports flooding the country. The increase in steel imp
Background Oral contraceptives were introduced almost 50 years ago, and over 100 million women currently use them. Oral contraceptives can reduce the risk of ovarian cancer, but the eventual public-health effects of this reduction will depend on how long the protection lasts after use ceases. We aimed to assess these effects. Methods Individual data for 23 257 women with ovarian cancer (cases) a
Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy was used in order to investigate the relationships between structure, dynamics and calcium binding in the intracellular regulatory protein, calmodulin. Calmodulin consists of two similar domains, each binding two calcium ions with positive cooperativity. The studies described in this thesis focus on the isolated C-terminal domain, TR2C, and two mutants
This paper includes a brief description of some closely related ongoing research activities aiming at learning from failures in order to improve the resilience of the Swedish railway system. One of these activities includes the development of a method aiming at assessing the capability for restoring the service of the railway system after strains affecting its technical, and often highly interdepe
A new Regulation on nutrition and health claims came into force in 2007 with implementation during a three-year period and will harmonise this area within the European Community. It makes provision for health claims on foods, including reduction of disease risk claims, and thus recognises the importance of food and nutrition for health. Member states have provided suggestions for claims regarding
The aim of the present Study was to make a 16-year follow-up of children of psychosocial risk mothers as concerns emotional/behavioural problems, self-esteem, life events, and academic grades. Forty-three teenagers (index group) and 61 reference teenagers were personally interviewed and asked to answer the Youth Self-report (YSR), the Self-image questionnaire I Think I Am, and a Life Event questio
The exponential growth of Big Data, the Internet of Things (IoT), and Large Language Models (LLMs) has significantly increased the computational and energy demands of modern computing systems. In response, research has increasingly focused on alternative machine learning paradigms and hardware architectures that reduce model complexity and computational load. One such paradigm is the Kolmogorov-Ar
Entrepreneurial intentions have been identified as a relevant precursor to entrepreneurial behavior; however, the complexities of entrepreneurial intention remain under-explored. This study examines the impact of offspring involvement with parental businesses on their entrepreneurial career intentions and the indirect roles of perceived desirability and perceived feasibility. Building primarily on
Introduction: Proactive and easily accessible interventions are needed to support people with long-term health conditions who experience limitations in activities of everyday life. However, there is a lack of interventions that promote self-management skills that prevent deterioration and improve health. The internet-based programme 'Strategies for Empowering Activities in Everyday Life' (SEE) sup
Globally, road traffic accidents (RTAs) remain a major cause of death, particularly among individuals aged 15–30 years. While Sweden has been at the forefront of traffic safety through the Vision Zero initiative, in-hospital management remains crucial in determining RTA outcomes. Drawing on North American evidence suggesting improved survival at trauma centres, the Swedish healthcare system has in
Objective: In primary health care in southern Sweden, interprofessional medication reviews are conducted, to a limited extent, for patients living independently, with the purpose of optimising their pharmacological treatment. These medication reviews have identified and addressed many important issues regarding the patients’ medication. However, there is limited knowledge regarding the participati
BACKGROUND: Patient perceptions of iron deficiency and efficacy of iron therapy may differ from the interpretations of doctors. Qualitative investigation at an individual level related may help define patient expectations and therapeutic targets. Therefore, we aimed to explore this concept in exercising females of reproductive age.METHODS: Exercising females (n = 403) who either (a) were currently
