BACKGROUND: Hair cosmetics such as hair dyes, bleaching, waving, and cleansing products are composed of numerous chemical ingredients. Allergic reactions to these contact allergens, other than p-phenylenediamine, are rarely reported.OBJECTIVES: To study the incidence of patch test reactions to hair cosmetic allergens and identify the factors associated with hair cosmetic allergy in Thailand.METHOD
Inflammation plays an important role in atherosclerosis. One of the most potent pro-inflammatory cytokines is tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-a), a cytokine identified to have a pathogenic role in chronic inflammatory diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The major objectives of this investigation was to establish a role for TNF-a in the development of atherosclerosis and neointimal formati
Feedbacks mechanisms are essential components of our climate system, as they either increase or decrease changes in climate-related quantities in the presence of external forcings. In this work, we provide the first quantitative estimate regarding the terrestrial climate feedback loop connecting the increasing atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration, changes in gross primary production (GPP) asso
The interaction of blood coagulation factor X and its Gla-containing fragments with negatively charged phospholipid membranes composed of 25 mol% phosphatidylserine (PtdSer) and 75 mol% phosphatidylcholine (PtdCho) was studied by surface plasmon resonance. The binding to 100 mol% PtdCho membranes was negligible. The calcium dependence in the membrane binding was evaluated for intact bovine factor
Accident prediction models are often used to predict the number of accidents on segments and at intersections in the road network. Most often the models are developed for a total number of crashes for the facility, or crashes by severity. However, the frequency and severity of crashes of different types can be expected to vary with regards to the underlying phenomena that cause them to occur. To b

This thesis demonstrates the usefulness of sedimentary pigments as biomarkers of environmental change in estuarine systems and as biomarkers in lakes in relation to climate change. These are two fields where sediment pigment records as measured by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) are emerging areas of study. A detailed study was undertaken to examine the effects of different storage o
Mangroves provide numerous environmental benefits, such as carbon sequestration, water purification, climate change mitigation, and flood and Tsunami impact reduction. Despite these unique advantages, mangroves are threatened by the combined adverse impacts of human activities and climate change. Therefore, it is essential to implement reasonable practices to avoid further degradation of mangroves
Antigenic diversity in pathogenic microbes can be a result of at least three different processes: diversifying selection by acquired immunity, host–pathogen coevolution and/or host specialization. Here, we investigate whether host specialization drives diversity at ospC (which encodes an immunodominant surface protein) in the tick-transmitted bacterium Borrelia afzelii. We determined prevalence an
Stability is a fundamental property affecting function, activity, and regulation of biomolecules. Stability changes are often found for mutated proteins involved in diseases. Stability predictors computationally predict protein-stability changes caused by mutations. We performed a systematic analysis of 11 online stability predictors' performances. These predictors are CUPSAT, Dmutant, FoldX, I-Mu
Examensarbetet behandlar upphörande av tvångsvård för barn. Lag (1990:52) med särskilda bestämmelser om vård av unga är en skyddslagstiftning som garanterar att utsatta barn ska få sina behov av vård tillgodosedda. Enligt 1 § LVU ska alla beslut som rör barn vara avgörande till vad som är det bästa för det individuella barnet. Samhället har befogenhet att bereda barnet tvångsvård om barnet lever i
Syftet med denna uppsats är att utifrån en rättsdogmatisk metodlära undersöka vad som krävs för att ett barn ska beredas vård med stöd av LVU för ett socialt nedbrytande beteende. För att besvara syftet har jag använt mig av underrättspraxis. Detta med anledning av att förarbetets tolkning av rekvisitet är vagt. Utifrån syftet är frågeställningarna: Hur bör barnets bästa tolkas? Överensstämmer LVUThe necessary conditions for the compulsory care of children based on the grounds of socially degrading behaviour are vague in the legislative history. The purpose of this thesis is to examine compulsory care of children on the grounds of socially degrading behaviour with aim of creating more clarity. This is regulated through 3 § of the Act pertaining to Special Provisions on the Care of Young Pe
Mot bakgrund av inkorporeringen av barnkonventionen 1 januari 2020 är syftet med uppsatsen att undersöka om konventionen fått det genomslag i rättstillämpningen som lagstiftaren avsåg vid införandet av lagen. Syftet uppnås genom att frågeställningen hur inkorporeringen av barnkonventionen i svensk lag har påverkat bedömningen av barnets bästa när särskilt ömmande omständigheter utgör grund för uppIn light of the incorporation of the Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC) in Swedish law on January 1st, 2020, the purpose of the thesis is to examine whether the convention has had the impact on the application of law that the legislator intended when the law was incorporated. The purpose is fulfilled by answering the question of how the incorporation of the CRC into Swedish law has affect
Barnets bästa är den bärande principen i dagens barnrätt och härstammar ur såväl FN:s barnkonvention och föräldrabalken.1 Översiktligt går det att konstatera att de grundläggande tankarna om principen är att stärka respekten för barnets människovärde och integritet, samt som en etisk vägledning för alla enskilda bedömningar i mål som rör barnet. Det innebär att principen inte enbart ska tillämpas
Barnets bästa är en central princip som har sin grund i barnkonventionen. Be- stämmelsen är intagen i såväl UtlL som LVU men dock med skilda formule- ringar. Barnets bästa ska beaktas och väga tungt i utvisningsärenden men vara avgörande i LVU-ärenden. Uppsatsens syftar till att beskriva vad principen barnets bästa innebär enligt gällande rätt, men också genom en empirisk undersökning av såväl LVU
Popular Abstract in Swedish Bröstcancer är den vanligaste maligna sjukdomen hos kvinnor i världen. Årligen insjuknar mer än 7300 kvinnor i Sverige, vilket innebär nästan 30 % av all kvinnlig cancer. Mer än 80 000 kvinnor i Sverige är friska efter att ha blivit behandlade för bröstcancer, och cirka 3000 kvinnor lever med återfall av sjukdomen. Prognosen har förbättrats de senaste decennierna, delviRadiotherapy (RT) after mastectomy has been part of the treatment for early breast cancer since the 1940s. The treatment reduces the risk of loco-regional recurrences, but implies risk of late side effects that can begin decades after RT. Aims of the thesis were: - To analyse the long term effects of postmastectomy radiotherapy and systemic treatment for 1100 stage II breast cancer patients in t
År 2010 beslutade regeringen att lagstiftningen avseende barn- och tvångsäktenskap krävde översyn och skärpning. Beslutet fattades mot bakgrund av uppgifter som Ungdomsstyrelsen lade fram 2009. Dessa uppgifter bestod av beräkningar att uppskattningsvis 70 000 ungdomar då levde i en situation där deras val av partner var begränsat och villkorat av deras familj. Lagstiftningsåtgärderna trädde i krafIn 2010, Sweden's Government decided that the legislation, concerning child marriages and forced marriages, needed to be strengthened and reviewed. The decision was made in light of data that Ungdomsstyrelsen put forward in 2009. This data consisted of calculations that approximately 70 000 youths lived in a situation where their choice of partner was limited and conditioned by their families.
