Objectives To describe the first-in-man experience with the ClearLumen Thrombectomy System (Walk Vascular, Irvine, CA) and report on its safety, feasibility and efficacy when used as an adjunctive therapy during primary PCI. Background Thrombus aspiration (TA) aims to improve microvascular perfusion but currently available devices are not optimal. Methods Prospective, single-centre, non-randomized

The purpose of this thesis is to study beam-cavity interactions, with a focus on how to maintain an unperturbed acceleration field in a conducting cavity with a proton beam present. The impact on a cavity acceleration field from different perturbation sources is investigated through computer simulations of a theoreti- cal model based on a resonant circuit. Perturbations from the RF input pulse to

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to research and analyze how the establishment in new markets of small and medium Swedish fashion companies can be made more efficient from a network perspective. Methodology: The researchers have decided to take a phenomenological standpoint and undertake an exploratory study in order to gain understanding of the phenomenon of market entry and the use of netwo

Alltfler människor har idag råd att unna sig något exklusivt och det finns en växande konkurrens på marknaden. Det finns därför också många böcker inom marknadsföring som talar om för företag hur de kan göra för att nå framgång med sina varumärken. Vårt syfte med denna uppsats är att titta på några av dessa teorier och att utifrån ett företagsperspektiv undersöka vilka faktorer i modern marknadsfö

In an increasingly globalized world, the contact with diverse individuals on a daily basis is unquestionable. Individuals regularly seek intercultural experiences and skills as a way to enrichen their professional and personal approaches and stand out in today’s competitive markets. This study focuses on international master students from Lund University’s School of Economics and Management (LUSEM

The aim of this thesis is to demonstrate how the concept of the ideal victim of crime contributes to re-victimize significant populations exploited by human traffickers. The argument is that seeing women trafficked in the sex industry as the norm together with a focus only on “women and children” as victims/survivors contribute to further hide-and therefore re-victimize-men and young boys. The Peo

The aim of the study was to study people with the experience of being overweight from a phenomenological perspective. The two main focuses where: How does the informants experience their body in their everyday life regarding the body, food and eating, working out, health and resistance from a phenomenological perspective? How do the informants experience their body in interaction to others and the

In 1993 with the entry into force of the Maastricht Treaty, the European Union, for the first time, formally institutionalized foreign policy cooperation in its Treaties. Thence, the Treaties governing the foreign policy of the Union has undergone no less than four reforms, introducing theoretically interesting institutional innovations. Despite this, academia has largely turned its attention towa

As China modernizes, its waste management capacities are put to a test. Faced by significant pressures to find a solution for growing municipal solid waste, China’s authorities have embraced waste incineration technology as a seemingly cost-efficient alternative to landfills. Against this push, significant societal opposition against the construction of waste incinerators has been mounting. Yet wh

Wine tourism is a niche tourism product that is increasing in wine regions across the world. Wine tourism is also being hailed as a more sustainable approach to tourism due to its promotion of economic, environmental and social sustainability. Sustainable rural development is a high priority around the world due to declining rural economies. Tourism is increasingly being viewed as a component of r

I artikel 1F flyktingkonventionen stadgas ett antal av de så kallade uteslutandeklausulerna från flyktingstatus, vilka utgör undantag från möjligheten att åtnjuta internationellt skydd för personer som uppfyller rekvisiten i flyktingdefinitionen. Artikeln utesluter asylsökande som misstänks för vissa grova brott, såsom krigsförbrytelser och brott mot mänskligheten, om det finns synnerligen anledniArticle 1F in the Refugee Convention constitutes one of the so called exclusions clauses from the possibility to be recognized as a refugee and hence obtain international protection. The Article excludes asylum seekers who are suspected for serious crimes, such as war crimes and crimes against humanity, if there are serious reasons for considering that the person has committed the alleged crime.

Våld i nära relationer, och då främst mäns våld mot kvinnor, utgör ett erkänt samhällsproblem. En särskilt utsatt grupp är våldsutsatta kvinnor med osäker uppehållsrätt som kommit till Sverige på anknytning till en svensk man. Kvinnorna får tidsbegränsade uppehållstillstånd och om anknytningen bryts föreligger inte längre förutsättningar för uppehållstillståndet, och kvinnan utvisas. Om kvinnan kaDomestic violence, and primarily men's violence against women, is a well-recognized social problem. A particularly vulnerable group is abused women with uncertain right of residence. Their migration status depends on that of their spouse, and they receive only a temporary residence permit. If the relationship is broken, the conditions for the residence permit are no longer present and the woma

I denna uppsats har jag intervjuat sex akademiker för att förstå hur akademin kan förstås ur ett dekolonialt perspektiv samt vilka möjligheter det finns för att arbeta dekolonialt inom akademin. Till hjälp har jag tagit teorier om bankundervisning, nollpunktens hybris, avlänkning, epistemisk våld samt dekoloniala pedagogier. Studien visar att akademin setts som en neutral och fristående institutio

Icke-erkända stater utgör ett främmande element i det internationella systemet. Tidigare forskning har dock visat att icke-erkända stater ofta har en beskyddarstat (​patron state​), som stödjer staten militärt såväl som finansiellt. Denna uppsats undersöker varför beskyddarstaten Turkiet erkänt Nordcypern, medan beskyddarstaten Armenien inte erkänt Nagorno Karabach. Fallen påminner bortsett från d

Securing access to land around the world is an issue that pervades many development agendas. Often promoted through legal and administrative systems, secure land tenure is used in the battle against poverty and to reduce land based conflict. Conceptualizations of secure tenure tend to differ between international institutions and academia. This thesis aims to understand how the World Bank concept
