Susceptibility Weighted Imaging is an MRI- and post-processing technique that utilize the phase information from the MR signal to enhance the contrast in areas with different susceptibility than surrounding tissue in T2*-weighted images. This technique is becoming more and more important as a clinical tool. Susceptibility-weighted imaging has been commercialized by Siemens Healthcare under the acr
Location Specific Advantages (LSAs) kan ses som lokala, immateriella tillgångar som finns på en viss plats i form av exempelvis billig arbetskraft eller en välutvecklad infrastruktur. I FN:s manual för internprissättning från maj 2013 ges både Kina och Indien egna kapitel där de förklarar sin syn på LSAs och hur de anser att multinationella bolag bör ta hänsyn till dessa i sin internprissättning. Location Specific Advantages (LSAs) can be considered as local intangibles in a specific place, as for instance: cheap labour or well-developed infrastructure. Both China and India have their own chapters in the United Nations Practical Manual on Transfer Pricing for Developing Countries from May 2013, where they are able to express their views on LSAs and how multinational enterprises (MNEs) shou
Syftet med denna uppsats är att visa hur staden Lagos har vuxit i storlek och ökat i befolkning mellan åren 1990-2008. Jämförelser över staden för åren 1990, 1999 och 2008 har gjorts så att huvudragen i stadens tillväxt har kunnat visas och analyseras. Baserat på hur staden har vuxit och förändrats under dessa år så har även tre stycken framtidsmodeller för hur Lagos kan tänkas se ut år 2020 produThe aim of this thesis is to show how the city of Lagos has grown in size and population between the years 1990-2008. Comparisons over the city for the years 1990, 1999 and 2008 have been made so that the main characteristics of the city’s growth can be shown and analyzed. Based on this expansion future prospects for the city has been provided through producing three different scenarios on how Lag
The purpose of this thesis is to create a greater understanding of the process of the commissionaires’ work with the report Malmö’s way to a sustainable future, which was finished and presented in March 2013. It is not the content of the report that is of interest for the writer, or in focus in this thesis, but how the commissionaires working with the report experienced the process: was it transpa
Den organiserade brottsligheten är ett ämne som ständigt är aktuellt och som ständigt diskuteras. Det är ett omfattande och problematiskt område, bland annat när det kommer till definitioner. Under senare år har stora resurser lagts ner på bekämpandet av denna brottslighet. Den organiserade brottsligheten sägs ständigt växa, trots betydande resurssatsningar, och frågan om hur denna brottslighet bäOrganised crime is a subject that is constantly current and constantly discussed. It is an extensive and problematic area, for example when it comes to definitions. In recent years, considerable resources have been spent on combating organised crime. Organised crime is said to constantly grow, despite considerable resource investments, and the question of how this type of crime is best fought, is
In 2014 five member states of the European union recieved 72 percent of all asylum applications that reached the union. This uneven distribution happend in spite of the fact that the Common European Asylum System (CEAS) since the adoptation of the Lisbon treaty according to article 80 TFEU is supposed to be governed by the princip of solidarity and fair sharing of responsibility. One explanation t
A growing world population confronts humanity and the planet with several challenges due to its increased demand for food, space and energy, implying changes in land use. While agriculture currently provides enough food, it is destroying biodiversity and hence aggravates the planet ́s vulnerability to climate change. A paradigm shift might therefore be needed. Applying a political ecology lens, co
Om samhället bör reglera prostitution, och hur denna lagstiftning i så fall bör utformas, är ett ämne föremål för ständig debatt. Sexköpsregleringens utformning varierar kraftigt länder emellan. I Sverige kriminaliseras inte försäljning, utan endast köp av sexuella tjänster. Denna uppsats undersöker om det svenska sexköpsförbudets ideologiska utgångspunkter och skyddsintressen haft någon betydelse

The Draft Treaty establishing the Constitution for Europe introduces some significant changes in the institutional setting of the European Union; the present study focuses on reforms made by this text in the EU system of external representation, particularly in the area of the Common Foreign and Security Policy.

It is frustrating for every reasonable human being to observe scenes of exploitation around the world in respect of children, because of their either naivety or vulnerability. It is unacceptable that still in the 21st century, children do not benefit from the protection, attention and love they deserve. An estimated 300 million children worldwide are subject to violence, exploitation and abuse inc
The system that regulates insulin secretion from beta-cells in the islet of Langerhans has a capsaicin-sensitive inhibitory component. As calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP)-expressing primary sensory fibers innervate the islets, and a major proportion of the CGRP-containing primary sensory neurons is sensitive to capsaicin, the islet-innervating sensory fibers may represent the capsaicin-sensi
Tapasin is a subunit of the transporter associated with antigen processing (TAP). It associates with the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I. We show that tapasin interacts with beta- and gamma-subunits of COPI coatomer. COPI retrieves membrane proteins from the Golgi network back to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). The COPI subunit-associated tapasin also interacts with MHC class I mole
The Greenland ice core from NorthGRIP (NGRIP) contains a proxy climate record across the Pleistocene-Holocene boundary of unprecedented clarity and resolution. Analysis of an array of physical and chemical parameters within the ice enables the base of the Holocene, as reflected in the first signs of climatic warming at the end of the Younger Dryas/Greenland Stadial 1 cold phase, to be located with
