Background: Free oxygen radicals have been implicated in the pathogenesis of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) in preterm infants. Superoxide dismutase (SOD) is a naturally occurring enzyme which provides a defense against such oxidant injury. Providing supplementary SOD has been tested in clinical trials to prevent BPD in preterm infants. Objectives: To determine the efficacy and safety of SOD in

Importance: Prenatal intensive behavioral therapy (IBT) interventions that promote adequate gestational weight gain (GWG) have had variable and mostly modest effects on clinically relevant maternal and infant outcomes. It is unknown whether different maternal obesity metabolic phenotypes underlie the heterogeneity in response. Objective: To examine GWG, adverse perinatal outcomes, substrate change

Konflikter mellan olika samhällsgrupper och människors fördomar har länge intresserat samhällsvetenskapliga forskare. Många har också sökt svar på frågan om vad som kan göras för att överbrygga och minska dessa klyftor, splittringar och fördomar. Denna avhandling relaterar till denna diskussion och forskningsprocessen har ägt rum i flera steg. Först har en experimentell praxis utvecklats för att mConflicts between different social groups and people's prejudices have interested social science researchers for a long time. Many have also sought answers to the question of what can be done to bridge and reduce these gaps, divisions and prejudices. This dissertation relates to these discussions and the research process has taken place in several stages. First, an experimental practice has been d

In the plant-based beverage industry, a residue called okara, is generated in large quantities in the liquid-solid separation step. Despite the high nutritional value of okara from soy and oat beverages with respect to fiber and protein content, these residues are generally discarded or used as animal feed or compost. It would be more sustainable to utilize okara for human consumption, however, th

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) har vuxit från att på 1950-talet varit en diskussion om företags sociala ansvar, till att idag utgöra en allt viktigare beståndsdel i företags beslutsfattande. CSR har uppstått som en motreaktion från allmänheten efter flertalet företagsskandaler och ökad globalisering då företagen kommit att utgöra viktiga aktörer för samhällsutvecklingen. Utvecklingen har frCorporate Social Responsibility (CSR) has evolved from in the 1950s being a discussion, to today constitute an increasingly more important component of corporate decision-making. CSR has emerged as a public backlash against several corporate scandals and increased globalization that has given corporations greater influence over the societal development. The CSR development has, until now, been cha

The way a society remembers its past is crucial for how it deals with its present. Migration is one of these historically continuous events that produce memory cultures, which affect how refugees and migrants are perceived today. This thesis presents a case study of mediated memory cultures of migration in Germany. Mediations of migration history from two strikingly similar periods of condensed so

Virusinfektioner och Diabetes? Diabetes kännetecknas av konstant förhöjt blodsocker. Sjukdomen ökar i lavinartade former och beskrivs som en av det moderna samhällets stora epidemier. Diabetes förekommer vanligtvis i två huvudsakliga former, typ1 och typ 2. I typ I-diabetes (T1D), som framförallt drabbar barn och ungdomar, har de insulinproducerande beta-cellerna förstörts av kroppens immunförsvType 1 Diabetes (T1D) is an immune-mediated disease where the pancreatic beta cells are selectively destroyed by autoreactive CD8+ T cells. However, the triggering events that eventually leads to autoreactive CD8 T cells infiltrating the pancreatic islets and, subsequently, destroying them still needs to be unveiled. Genetic and epidemiological evidence points to a substantial influence of environ

Protesting against human rights violations is dangerous. Worldwide, human rights defenders are subject to violations ranging from harassment to murder. One way in which human rights defenders are silenced is through the misuse of the national judicial system where it is employed to punish human rights defenders for their work. Vague laws contribute to making this possible because they obfuscate th

The importance of sterilization processes has been a major topic in the food manufacturing industry since it preserves the quality and provides longer shelf-life by preventing microbiological recontamination of products. Aseptic packaging is an alternative technique to pack commercially sterile products into containers with a very low recontamination rate, thus, the entire production chain must be

Framväxten av artificiell intelligens (AI) har medfört ett flertal utmaningar för det upphovsrättsliga regelverket. Det befintliga upphovsrättsliga regelverket ger skydd åt verk som skapats av en människa. Samtidigt har framstegen inom AI och den djupa maskininlärningen möjliggjort att AI-system genererar alster i form av litteratur, musik och bilder, som traditionellt har hört till människans domThe emergence of Artificial Intelligence (AI) poses a number of challenges to copyright law. The existing copyright regulations provide protection for works created by human beings. At the same time, advances in AI and deep machine learning have enabled AI systems to generate creations of literature, music and images, which are traditionally associated with the human domain. The thesis investigat

Skyldigheten för en avtalspart att meddela motparten om eventuellt miss-nöje med avtalsrelationen eller den levererade prestationen har länge varit en del av den svenska rätten. Skyldigheten förstås i dag som ett utlopp av par-ternas lojalitetsplikt och stadgar en allmän avtalsrättslig reklamationsplikt. Den allmänna reklamationsplikten har de senaste åren återkommande prö-vats av HD. Genom HD:s pThe obligation for a contracting party to notify the counterparty of any dissatisfaction with the contractual relationship or the counterparty’s performance has for long been a part of Swedish law. The obligation is an expression of the parties’ duty of loyalty and establishes a general contractual obligation to give notice. An obligation that has been the focus of several of the Swedish Supreme C

This thesis examines the phenomena of third-party enforcement in public international law, in a historical as well as in a contemporary perspective. To that end, it traces the role of such enforcement measures from the past into the present. It also studies the potential discrepancies between current unilateral sanctions and the recent changes experienced by international law at large. Two legal m

Efter att fransk polis lyckats få tillgång till material från den krypterade kommunikationstjänsten EncroChat vidarebefordrades delar av materialet till den svenska Polisen. Detta resulterade i att ett stort antal personer dömdes till långa fängelsestraff. EncroChat är dels en krypterad kommunikationstjänst, dels ett operativsystem för smarta mobiltelefoner. EncroChat används av personer som inteAfter the French police managed to gain access to material from the encrypted communication service EncroChat, parts of the material were forwarded to the Swedish police. This resulted in a large number of people being sentenced to long prison terms. EncroChat is partly an encrypted communication service and partly an operating system that runs on smartphones. EncroChat is used by people who do n

This work reports the research and findings concerning the processes of groundwater flow and distribution to lake Bolmen in the Småland region, Sweden. The watershed of Bolmen is of high interest since it provides water for drinking and energy purposes, representing a resource of notable importance for the society of southern Sweden. Among the main objectives there is the estimation of the water b

Genom Europakonventionen och regeringsformen tillförsäkras den enskilde ett flertal rättigheter. Varje medborgare åtnjuter bland annat skydd till frihet och personlig säkerhet samt till privat och familjeliv, sitt hem och sin korrespondens. Dessa friheter får begränsas genom lag under förutsättning att begränsningen tillgodoser ändamål som är godtagbara i ett demokratiskt samhälle. Att utreda brotThe Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms (ECHR) and the Swedish constitution guarantee everyone a number of civil rights. Every citizen has the right to respect for his private and family life, his home and his correspondence. These rights may be limited by law, presumed that these limitations have a righteous purpose in a democratic society. Investigating crimes

Endast den som är svensk medborgare har en absolut rätt att vistas i landet. När en utlänning begår ett brott kan detta under vissa förutsättningar leda till att utlänningen utvisas. När domstolen avgör om en utlänning ska utvisas på grund av brott görs en avvägning mellan brottets allvarlighet eller risken för att utlänningen återfaller i brott och utlänningens anknytning till Sverige. UppsatsenSummary Only Swedish citizens enjoy the absolute right to reside in Sweden. A foreigner who commits a crime can, under certain circumstances, be deported. When the court decides whether or not a foreigner is going to be deported because of crime it makes an adjustment between the severity of the crime or the risk of continued criminal activity and the foreigners attachment to Sweden.

Principen om aktiers fria överlåtbarhet är av grundläggande betydelse för aktiebolagsrätten. Med anledning av att framförallt fåmansbolag har ett berättigat behov av att kunna begränsa aktiens omsättning, och därigenom kontrollera bolagets ägarkrets, tillhandahåller ABL tre olika överlåtelsebegränsningar vilka kan regleras i bolagsordningen. Vid sidan av bolagsordningen, kan aktieägarna emellertidIn the field of company law, the principle of free transferability of shares is of fundamental importance. Since close companies in particular have a justified need for the ability to limit share turnover, and thus control the company ownership group, the Swedish Companies Act provides three different means of transfer restrictions that can be implemented in the articles of association. However, b

For a successful project of urban wind power requires wind as well as attachments, sound level and the requirements and regulations should be taken under consideration. But a lot of experience is still lacking and many projects fail therefore. This report covers the aspects described above and a summary of experiences and knowledge gaps have been made with the aim of facilitating the planning phas

Intellectual property law seeks to promote society's industrial development through the recognition of patents. The logic of granting patent protection is clear-cut: Patents provide incentives for developing new technology. The lack of an adequate legal protection for innovations would slow progress and the benefits it brings. Without legal protection, companies would be unlikely to spend sign
