Since the Washington consensus in the 1980s, economic liberalization has been seen as a panacea for increasing the economic development and the welfare of a developing country. By reducing trade tariffs and barriers, moving from a socialistic economic system and removing state monopoly on major exports, it is believed that a developing country will increase its income and economic growth while ben

Hyran för kommersiella lokaler regleras utifrån principen om marknadshyra, vilken sätts av ingående kontrakt mellan hyresvärd och hyresgäst. Hyresavtalen beror vanligtvis på lokalens fastighetsanknutna attribut och medför givetvis att hyresnivåerna kommer att skilja sig åt mellan varje enskilt kontrakt. Förfarandet vid avtalsupprättande är välbeprövat och finns reglerat i Jordabalken (1979:994). SThe rents for commercial premises are regulated by the principle of market rent, which are set by contracts between landlords and tenants. The leases typically depends on the property related attributes and naturally means that rental levels will differ between each individual contract. However, according to the Swedish property indicator, the general rent levels of commercial stores and offices,

Ultraljud och mikrochip kan hjälpa oss att förstå cancer bättre En tumör och dess omgivning spelar stor roll i hur cancer utvecklas och genom att förstå vilka celler den består av och sortera ut de viktigaste kan man öka kunskapen om hur cancern bäst ska bekämpas. I detta arbete har immunceller från sådan upplöst bröstvävnad sorteras ut med hjälp av ett mikrochip med små kanaler samt en ultraljudThe aim of this thesis was to compare different ways of dissociating tissue - specifically breast cancer tissue - and sorting out tumour cells and immune cells from the dissociated tissue using acoustophoresis in a microfluidic chip. Due to ethical issues with using tumour tissues to work on the methodology of a project, ultimately only healthy breast tissue was used in this work. Two dissociatio

Sufficient solute and water removal are crucial for adequate peritoneal dialy- sis (PD) treatment. However, present clinical tests for peritoneal membrane trans- port characteristics are cumbersome and time consuming. Here, a mathematical model consisting of linear differential equations aiming to describe the complex process of solute and water transport accross the peritoneal membrane, in order

Background: Obesity, type 2 diabetes and atrial fibrillation (AF) are closely associated, but the underlying mechanisms are not fully understood. We aimed to explore associations between body mass index (BMI) or weight change with risk of AF in patients with type 2 diabetes. Methods: A total of 7,169 participations with newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes were stratified according to baseline BMI, and

Prediction of flood and evaluation of the impact of climate change in a catchment needs to be correctly estimated, which can be accomplished by hydrological modelling in HEC-HMS. In this paper, the objectives were to gain an understanding of the rainfall-runoff process and estimate the flood frequency curve in the Kävlinge River Basin. However, due to the complexity of a catchment, models should b

För att nå Sveriges transportpolitiska mål är krävs det att fler väljer cykeln som huvudsakligt färdmedel. Genom att prioritera cyklisters trafiksäkerhet och framkomlighet ökar attraktiviteten vilket gör att fler väljer att cykla. I denna studie har tre korsningar i Malmö analyserats med avseende på trafiksäkerhet och framkomlighet där syftet var att undersöka hur trafiksäkerhet och framkomlighet In order to achieve Sweden's transport policy goals, it is required that more people choose the bicycle as their main mode of transport. By prioritizing cyclists' traffic safety and level of service, attractiveness increases, which means that more people choose to cycle. In this study, three intersections in Malmö have been analyzed with regard to traffic safety and level of service, where

Intresset för att bygga fler och högre trähus i Sverige har senaste tiden ökat bland annat då trä är ett betydligt mer miljövänligt alternativ att bygga med än stål och betong. Stomsystem i trä har dock ingen naturlig sammanhållning likt en platsgjuten betongstomme och därför måste anslutningarna i en trästomme hanteras explicit. RISE (Research Institutes of Sweden) driver en konceptstudie om högaThe interest in building more and higher timber buildings in Sweden has recently increased, for example, because wood is a much more environmentally friendly alternative to construct with then steel and concrete. Frame system in wood has no natural cohesion like a cast concrete frame and therefore the connection in a wooden frame must be managed explicitly. RISE (Research Institutes of Sweden) run

Increased risks of certain cancers have been observed in patients with hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. However, data on other cancer sites/types are lacking. We analyzed systematically the risk of developing 35 common cancers in patients with HCV infection using a nationwide Swedish database. Patients with HCV infection were identified from the Swedish Hospital Inpatient and Outpatient Register

In order to obtain a higher thermal efficiency, the inlet temperature of gas turbines is gradually increased. However, this increases the thermal load on the first stage vane endwall surface. Therefore, an advanced cooling technique must be implemented for the endwall cooling to ensure that the gas turbine operates safely. In the current study, effects of swirling coolant flow from the upstream sl

BACKGROUND/AIM: Consequences of an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury include worse patient-reported outcomes (PROs) and a decrease in activity level. Muscle function can be improved by targeted exercise. Our aims were to investigate cross-sectional and longitudinal associations among lower extremity muscle function and PROs after ACL injury.METHODS: Fifty-four participants (15 women, mean 30

There is limited research on indoor air quality in the Middle East. In this study, concentrations and size distributions of indoor particles were measured in eight Jordanian dwellings during the winter and summer. Supplemental measurements of selected gaseous pollutants were also conducted. Indoor cooking, heating via the combustion of natural gas and kerosene, and tobacco/shisha smoking were asso

We analyzed seasonal flu vaccination rates among the Italian population suffering from Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) in order to identify socio-demographic and clinical determinants for vaccination. We used data from the survey "Health and health care use in Italy", which interviewed 5,935 persons (age 15 - 102 years) suffering from COPD in the period 2004-2005. For each respondent,

Background: Register diagnoses, both hospital-based and from open clinic care, are often used in research studies in Sweden. The validity of such diagnoses has been debated and a validation assessment can improve the diagnostic accuracy for use in research studies.Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the quality of register-derived dementia diagnoses in the Malmö Diet and Cancer pop

A 9-month lab experiment was carried out with three different amendments (vine pruning wastes, PW; composted vine pruning wastes, cPW; and sewage sludge, SS) added at three different rates (90, 180, and 240 t ha−1, dry weight) in order to test whether the type or the quantity of the amendments applied to a semiarid, degraded soil determined the Corg accumulation in its particle-size fractions (coa

This paper aimed to study the agreement and repeatability, both intra- and interobserver, of infrapopliteal lesion assessment with magnetic resonance angiography (MRA), using the TransAtlantic Inter-Society Consensus (TASC) II criteria, with perioperative digital subtraction angiography (DSA) as a reference. Sixty-eight patients with an MRA preceding an endovascular infrapopliteal revascularizatio

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) constitutes a global epidemic. Overall outcome is poor, with mortality ranging from 10 to 70% and significant long-term morbidity. Several experimental reports have claimed effect on traumatic edema, but all clinical trials have failed. Antisecretory factor, an endogenous protein, is commercially available as Salovum®, which is classified as a medical food by the Europ
