This doctoral thesis comprises a critical edition of a previously unpublished manuscript from the late seventeenth century, which is housed in Lund University Library. The manuscript consists of copies of eighty-eight letters and other documents in Latin. The originals were, in most cases, written by country vicars from Scania, a Swedish province that until 1658 was part of Denmark. The identity o

Context: The notion of insignificant prostate cancer (Ins-PCa) has progressively emerged in the past two decades. The clinical relevance of such a definition was based on the fact that low-grade, small-volume, and organ-confined prostate cancer (PCa) may be indolent and unlikely to progress to biologic significance in the absence of treatment. Objective: To review the definition of Ins-PCa, its in

Popular Abstract in Swedish Övervikt och fetma fortsätter öka världen över, och har redan nått enorma proportioner. Med dessa tillstånd följer en rad sjukdomar, så som diabetes typ 2, hjärtoch kärlsjukdomar och en del cancersjukdomar. Idag är det globalt sett fler människor som dör av fetma och de sjukdomar som är relaterade till övervikt, än som dör av undervikt och svält. Övervikt orsakas främstThe incidence of overweight and obesity has reached alarming proportions. Today, overweight, obesity and the metabolic diseases cause more death than starvation. To counteract an increasing body weight gain, regulation of appetite and a controlled food intake is of greatest importance. Simply put, body weight is regulated by the amount of energy ingested, and the amount of energy expended. In toda

Popular Abstract in Swedish Cancer är den vanligaste dödsorsaken bland barn mellan 1–14 år i Sverige. Neuroblastom, som nästan uteslutande drabbar barn, är en aggressiv cancersjukdom som har sitt ursprung i det sympatiska (icke-viljestyrda) nervsystemet. I frisk vävnad råder strikt balans mellan celldelning och celldöd, medan cancerceller kännetecknas av en ohämmad celldelning och minskad celldödNeuroblastoma is a childhood tumor of the developing sympathetic nervous system (SNS) and is the most commonly diagnosed form of cancer in children before one year of age. Although survival curves have improved for these patients during the past decades, the conventional regimen of neuroblastoma treatment has clearly reached a plateau of efficiency with regard to increasing the survival rates of h

Reclamation on bare tailing ponds has the potential to represent soil genesis in Technosols favoring the understanding of the changes of microbial communities and function. In this study we used phytostabilization aided with calcium carbonate and pig slurry/manure to reclaim an acidic bare tailing pond with the aim of investigating the effect of amending and different species on microbial communit

Proteins are composed of 20 different amino acids. In the translation process, each of these 20 amino acids is specifically recognized by their cognate aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase. The fidelity of this recognition system is essential if translation is to function properly. The development of an in vitro system based on this recognition scheme would make a powerful analytical tool with which to analy

Urban design and city planning have historically been a practice undertaken by distanced experts and funded by detached donors and political bodies. The result is often urban sprawl, transit domination, and streets deprioritizing pedestrians. While urban areas do support innovation and knowledge-intensive production, the occurrence of social and environmental urban vulnerabilities is increasing an

Abstract Title: Is blood really thicker than water? Author: Casper Krönlein and Milje Wiik Supervisor: Maria Bangura Arvidsson The aim within the Swedish welfare system is that a child in foster care should maintain a strong relationsship with their biological parents throughout the placement, with the intention of a reunion with the biological family. There is no time limit set on reunion and t

Begrepp som kreativitet och innovation har aldrig varit så viktiga som de är idag. Ökad innovationskraft tros bidra till Europas konkurrensförmåga på världsmarknaden liksom till hållbarhet och fler arbetstillfällen inom Unionen. Enligt EU nås framgång genom att skapa ideala förutsättningar för innovation och att främja kreativitet med politiskt stöd. En patentpool är ett arrangemang där ett flertConcepts such as creativity and innovation have never been more important than they are today. Increased innovativeness is believed to contribute to Europe’s competitiveness on the world market as well as sustainability and job creation within the union. According to the EU, the way to success is to set up ideal conditions for innovation and nurture creativity through political support. A patent

The basis for this thesis is a proposal presented by the British government in 2003. It was suggested in the proposal that asylum claims should not be assessed within the EU. Instead all asylum seekers arriving irregularly at the borders of a Member State of the European Union - the EU - should be returned to an asylum center, a camp, established in an asylum producing area of the world. Here the

Allmänt känt hos många jurister – om inte alla – är att allmän domstol använder sig av vissa utarbetade modeller eller metoder då den har att utföra en tolkningsoperation på ett avtal. Dessa metoder underlättar för tolkaren att uppvisa enhetlighet i bedömningen så att lika avtal tolkas lika. Detta är även önskvärt då det leder till ett visst mått av förutsägbarhet. Allmänna reklamationsnämnden är Common knowledge among Swedish lawyers is that the Swedish Court – in cases regarding the interpretation of a contract – uses certain established methods for determining the proper content of that contract. These methods help the interpreter (in most cases a judge or an arbitrator) to uphold uniformity so that all cases that are alike are treated the same. These methods also help in withholding a

Low-energy buildings are nowadays often used in common speech, for selling or promotion – everything has to be ”low energy”. But how do you know if your house is a low energy building? And how do the manufacturers of the building components know? Is there an official definition, what technical criteria do these buildings have to fulfill? The growing of low-energy buildings causes a demand of compl

Skiljeförfarande har under de senaste decennierna växt fram till en mycket populär och uppskattad metod för tvistlösning, särskilt bland kommersiella parter. En större partsautonomi, effektivitet och slutlighet har betonats som fördelar jämfört med domstolsförfarande. Samtidigt finns frågor och svårigheter att reda ut. En av dessa aspekter lyftes i samband med att delar av lagen om skiljeförfarand

Fisken som simmar i våra vattendrag är en väsentlig del av ekosystemet. Där bidrar de med allt från att driva näringskretsloppet till att stötta lokala ekonomier genom fiske och rekreation. Men dessa akvatiska ekosystem är under hot från en rad olika mänskliga aktiviteter, till exempel jordbruk, urbanisering, anläggandet och upprätthållandet av dammar. Under de senaste årtiondena så har det gjorts

I takt med ett mer extremt klimat till följd av global uppvärmning förväntas kusterna världen över bli allt mer utsatta då stormars frekvens och intensitet beräknas öka. För att kustnära infrastruktur och personlig egendom ska kunna stå emot dessa intensifierade belastningar behöver stora delar av världens kustskydd rustas upp. För att tillämpa adekvat dimensionering av dessa faciliteter behöver kThe aim of this masters dissertation is to investigate how problems that includes fluids can be solved numerical through FE-analysis. The problem at hand is to predict the impact force implied by breaking ocean waves on vertical coastal structures. The importance that coastal areas has on human society both from a perspective of economy, infrastructure and recreation are indubitable. Furthermore,

Sammanfattning Uppsåtets nedre gräns mot medveten oaktsamhet utgjordes tidigare huvudsakligen av det eventuella uppsåtet med hypotetiskt prov. Att det hypotetiska eventuella uppsåtet skulle utgöra uppsåtslärans nedre gräns i svensk rätt fastslogs genom NJA 1959 s. 63 ”Råbypojkarna”. Trots 1959 års avgörande gjordes genom senare rättspraxis ett antal försök att omformulera uppsåtets nedre gräns. FöSummary The boundary between intent and conscious negligence in the Swedish legal system was previously set by the so called ‘dolus eventualis with a hypothetical test’. The latter was established by the Swedish Supreme Court (hereafter the Court) in a ruling from 1959, the “Råbyboys” case (NJA 1959 s. 63). Despite this there have been numerous attempts to replace dolus eventualis with a hypotheti
