Decomposition of soil organic matter (SOM) contributes significantly to the global carbon (C) cycle and climate feedbacks. SOM decomposition depends on soil microbial activities, and these activities are driven by the availability of C and other nutrients. Plant root exudates are known to alter decomposition of SOM, a phenomenon referred to as rhizosphere priming effects (RPE).

Idag finns det över 100 000 gode män eller förvaltare, sk ställföreträdare, i Sverige. En ställföreträdare kan utses för att sköta huvudmannens ekono-miska, rättsliga eller personliga angelägenheter. Förhållandet mellan huvud-mannen och ställföreträdrädaren betraktas som ett slags fullmaktsförhål-lande där ställföreträdaren utför ärenden åt huvudmannen mot viss betal-ning. Inom svensk politik har In Sweden, there are currently over 100,000 trustees and legal guardians, who can be appointed to handle a person’s financial, legal, and/or personal matters. The relationship between the individual and the trustee is considered a form of power of attorney for performing tasks for the person against some minor payment. Within swedish politics, there have been a lot of discussions about issues in t

I svensk rätt men även av Europadomstolen har det ansetts möjligt att tillmäta en tilltalads tystnad eller icke trovärdiga förklaring en för denne negativ bevis-verkan genom åläggandet av en förklaringsbörda. Uppsatsens syfte är att un-dersöka om denna förklaringsbörda i ljuset av bevisrättsliga principer samt rättspsykologisk forskning är lämplig att använda i brottmål. För att uppfylla syftet koIn Swedish law as well as by the European Court of Human Rights it has been considered possible to draw adverse inferences from a defendant’s si-lence or non-credible explanation by imposing a burden of explanation (förklaringsbörda). The purpose of this essay is to investigate whether this burden of explanation in light of principles of evidence law and forensic psy-chological research is appropr

Necessity is a justification rule in 24th chapter 4 § in the Swedish Penal Code (Sw. brottsbalken). The clause is applicable when a danger threatens life, health, property or another interest that is protected by the legal system. An act committed in an emergency is seen as a crime only if it, with regard to the nature of the danger, the damage that is caused and the other circumstances, is unjust

Popular Abstract in English An increased risk of pre-cancer lesions of the cervix among HIV-infected women, and the positive impact of HIV treatment on its outcome has been reported globally. However there is paucity of information from west Africa with genetically distinct viral strains. Considering that HIV strains differ in the rate and pattern of HIV disease progression, a different outcome isBackground: The highest numbers of HIV-infected women are in sub- Saharan Africa, where the natural progression of HIV disease in the absence of treatment results in death before the onset of invasive cervical cancer. With improved access to treatment, several studies outside West Africa demonstrated an increased risk of pre-invasive cervical lesions among HIV-infected women and the positive impac

Popular Abstract in Swedish Typ 1-diabetes är en allvarlig, autoimmun, sjukdom och Sverige har världens näst högsta antal nya insjuknanden. Varje år diagnostiseras ca 700 individer i Sverige med sjukdomen som kan debutera i alla åldrar. Senare studier tyder dock på att barn med typ 1-diabetes blir allt yngre. Vi vet idag att ärftligheten är kopplad till en specifik gen vilket förklarar ca 30-50% aObjective The primary aim of this thesis was to test whether gestational exposure to environmental factors may induce islet autoimmunity. The second aim was to determine to what extent the exposure to viruses or other environmental factors is a risk factor for type 1 diabetes in the offspring. As children with type 1 diabetes have a higher risk of developing celiac disease (CD), an additional aim

Popular Abstract in English Nowadays, the majority of energy production comes from combustion which is universally linked to daily human activities. Public awakening of the environmental effects of combustion pollution evokes extensive research activities in improving combustion efficiency and reducing pollutant production. Development of combustion processes also includes the use of renewable bioThe work presented in the thesis concerns the developments of laser-based diagnostics and its application to the study of turbulent premixed combustion. The diagnostic developments, mainly concerned with planar laser-induced fluorescence (PLIF), are intended to provide instantaneous visualization of the key species originating from the combustion processes involved in the burning of hydrocarbons

Popular Abstract in Swedish Under de senaste decennierna har osteoporos (benskörhet) erhållit allt större uppmärksamhet eftersom allt fler individer drabbas av åkomman. Osteoporos är en sjukdom som ökar med stigande ålder och framför allt drabbar kvinnor. Sjukdomen leder till ökad risk för fraktur (benbrott) och antalet osteoporosrelaterade frakturer har ökat markant under senaste halvan av 1900-tThis thesis considers the effect of physical activity on bone mass in weight-loaded and unloaded regions of the skeleton. Bone mass was measured by Dual X-ray Absorptiometry (DXA) and by Quantitative Ultrasound (QUS). In a cross-sectional study 67 male soccer-players, on different levels of the Swedish national league, were compared with 24 male controls. No differences were demonstrated between s

Popular Abstract in Swedish Urininkontinens är en utbredd folksjukdom och ett stort folkhälsoproblem. Omkring 500 000 människor i Sverige, mest kvinnor (2/3) är drabbade. Förekomsten av inkontinens ökar med stigande ålder. Ofrivilligt urinläckage orsakar många gånger både medicinska och sociala handikapp med minskad livskvalitet som följd. Undersökningar har visat att endast 25% av de inkontinentaDysfunction of the pelvic floor can lead to incontinence and different forms of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS). Urinary incontinence is a common problem and about 500 000 persons in Sweden, mostly (2/3) women, suffering from incontinence. The general aim of this thesis was to characterize the function and dysfunction of the pelvic floor muscles in healthy and incontinent women. Vaginal EMG, p

Mindre än två månader – så kort kan tiden enligt uppskattningar vara från upptäckten av ett virus med pandemisk potential till dess att virusets spridning över världen når exponentiell takt. Nationella regeringar och myndigheter har därför kort tid på sig för att i samråd med internationella organ planera och införa åtgärder för att hindra eller begränsa smittspridningen inom respektive land.I det

A team of clinical researchers at Lund University found that electromagnetic radiation, such as that used in GSM-900 mobile telephones, at low non-thermal power values (<2 W/kg), causes users' blood albumin to leak through the blood-brain barrier "BBB" into in the brain tissue.

With the introduction of information theory in the middle of the 20th century, the concept of noise came to be contrasted with signal. The exhibition Noise to Signal mainly consists of two projects that highlight the relative nature of these terms.The three textile works, all with the title Untitled (Noise), appear abstract but also represent a grainy filter that is usually applied to digital imag

Jag tycker det är bra att LTH satsar på en civilingenjörsutbildning inom brandteknik. Samhället förändras och utvecklas – räddningstjänstens arbete blir i takt med det alltmer komplicerat. Vi behöver kompensera för och axla upp till vår omgivnings nya krav och verklighet.

During the Covid-19 pandemic, telework has been a central part of the strategy to reduce the spread of the virus. Before the pandemic, only 5% of EU workers worked remotely on a regular basis. When the pandemic broke out, the proportion of employees working remotely in the EU increased to almost 40%. The rapid transition to telework has raised several issues of labor law. The purpose of this thesi

Since the end of the cold war issues concerning civil preparedness at the municipal level has been slumbering in Sweden. During WWII and the cold war Sweden had an extensive civil preparedness at all political levels. With the absence of the threat of war the civil preparedness in Sweden faded away.
