I denna uppsats har jag genom att använda en rättsdogmatisk metod försökt uppnå uppsatsens syfte: Att undersöka varför den svenska lagstiftaren inte infört ett rekvisit om bristande samtycke i den svenska lagstiftningen. Syftet är också at utreda förhållandet mellan den så kallade Bulgariendomen och den nuvarande svenska våldtäktslagstiftningen. Från 1864 års strafflag till idag har våldtäktsbrottIn this thesis I have used the legal dogmatic method to achieve the purpose of the thesis: To examine why the Swedish legislation has not adopted a rape legislation based on consent. The purpose is also to examine the relationship between the Bulgarian case and Swedish rape legislation. Since the year of 1864 rape legislation has been expanded to cover a greater scope of application. Rape within m

Detta examensarbete handlar om fukthantering i träkonstruktioner. Det blir vanligare att använda sig av korslimmat trä (KL-trä) i konstruktioner idag och syftet med arbetet är därför att fördjupa sig mer i ämnet och undersöka vilka orosmoment som kan uppstå när man bygger med trä och hur man hindrar att orosmomentet uppstår på ett optimalt sätt. Frågeställningarna som togs fram var: • Vilka typeThis thesis deals with moisture management in wooden structures. In modern society it is currently common to use cross-laminated timber wood (CLT) in constructions. As the new technologies advances every day, moisture management needs to be streamlined. The purpose of the work is to delve deeper into the subject and investigate which concerns can arise when building in wood and how to prevent the

Title: The Impact of the Pandemic and War on the State of Global Supply Chains Purpose: The purpose of the thesis is to outline the current state of global supply chains and global energy supply as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic as well as Russia-Ukraine war. Current energy and supply chain issues are explored and discussed based on existing theory on the topic. When the overall issues are cla

Background: Accurate volumetry and imaging characterization of chronic subdural hematoma (cSDH) are essential for prognostication and treatment planning, but manual assessment is time-consuming and therefore underutilized. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed preoperative non-contrast CT (NCCT) scans of 257 patients undergoing first-time surgery for uni- or bilateral cSDH. Hematoma volumes were m

BackgroundAcute-phase proteins (APPs) reflect systemic inflammation and nutritional status, yet their perioperative trajectories and clinical utility as biomarkers of outcome in advanced ovarian cancer (aEOC) remain unclear. We aimed to characterise perioperative APP fluctuations and assess their associations with postoperative complications.MethodsThis observational study included patients underg

In this paper, a parametric analysis on the main engine calibration parameters applied on gasoline Partially Premixed Combustion (PPC) is performed. Theoretically, the PPC concept permits to improve both the engine efficiencies and the NOx-soot trade-off simultaneously compared to the conventional diesel combustion. This work is based on the design of experiments (DoE), statistical approach, and i

Purpose: To examine health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and supportive care needs among young adult (YA) cancer survivors up to 3 years post-diagnosis. Methods: A national cohort of individuals diagnosed at 18–39 years with breast, cervical, ovarian, or testicular cancer, lymphoma or brain tumor was approached with surveys at 1.5 (n = 1010, response rate 67%) and 3 (n = 722) years post-diagnosi

Track irregularities induce increased wheel-rail contact forces causing poor ride comfort, accelerated mechanical degradation of vehicle and track or even failures that may lead to speed restrictions or temporary track closure. Today’s monitoring of railway tracks in Sweden using measurement vehicles consumes traffic capacity and means a restriction in data collection to a few occasions per year.

From a cohort of 171 patients comprising 121 aggressive pituitary tumours (APT) and 50 pituitary carcinomas (PC), the clinicopathological or five-tiered classification based on tumour invasion and proliferation evaluated by at least 2 proliferative markers over the cut-offs (Ki-67 ≥3% or ≥10%, p53 positive or expressed in %, mitotic count >2%), could be applied on 43 tumours: 20 PC and 23 APT. At

BACKGROUND: The effect of myocardial infarction (MI) on life expectancy is difficult to study because the prevalence of MI hinders direct comparison with the life expectancy of the general population. We sought to assess this in relation to age, sex, and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) by comparing individuals with MI with matched comparators without previous MI. METHODS: We included pat

Water service delivery to most residents of peri-urban areas of greater Maputo depends largely on alternative service providers. mostly in the form of small-scale independent providers (SSIPs). This paper discusses the present and long-term challenges facing SSIPs in supplying quality water of sufficient quantity in peri-Urban Maputo and possible human health risks associated with the consumption

Popular Abstract in Undetermined Denne afhandling præsenterer en ny udlæsnings metode udviklet til cantileverbaserede sensorer. Cantilevere er tynde vipper, der er fastgjorte i den ene ende, og som igennem de seneste ti °ar har vist sig at være en interessant ny type bio/kemisk sensor. Den specifikke genkendelse af et kemikalie viser sig ved at cantileveren bøjer som følge af det skabte overfladesThis thesis presents a novel read-out method developed for cantilever-based sensors. Cantilevers are thin beams clamped at one end and during the last 10 years they have emerged as an interesting new type of bio/chemical sensor. The specific recognition of a chemical manifests itself as a bending of the cantilever from the generated surface stress. Conventionally the read-out used for this type of

Recombinant FVIIa (rFVIIa) was developed for treatment of haemophilia patients with inhibitors against FVIII/FIX. The haemostatic efficacy rate of 80-90% including major orthopaedic surgery (dosing of 90-120 mu g/kg every other hour [h] for at least the first 24 h) was achieved in these patients. In a home-treatment setting the efficacy rate of haemostasis in mild-moderate bleedings was 92% (avera

Purpose: To estimate inter-observer agreement with regard to describing adnexal masses using the International Ovarian Tumor Analysis (IOTA) terminology and the risk of malignancy calculated using IOTA logistic regression models LR1 and LR2, and to elucidate what explained the largest inter-observer differences in calculated risk of malignancy. Experimental Design: 117 women with adnexal masses we

Sweden’s rapid economic growth after World War II meant that the native labour supply was incapable of meeting the high demand, especially for industrial labourers. Three agreements on organised collective transfers were signed, but a large majority of the labour migrants came on their own initiative. Not all applicants were equally welcomed. In this article, logistic regressions are used to inves

OBJECTIVE: To compare the reliability of quantitative measurement of minimum hip joint space with a qualitative global assessment of radiological features for estimating the prevalence of primary osteoarthritis (OA) of the hip in colon radiographs.METHODS: All colon radiographs from patients aged 35 or older, taken at three different radiographic departments in Iceland during the years 1990-96, we

Calreticulin (CRT) is a eukaryotic, highly conserved, Ca2+-binding protein predominantly located in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) lumen. In addition to being involved in the regulation of cellular Ca2+, calreticulin is a key quality control element during protein folding in the ER lumen. Tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) suspension cells overexpressing a maize CRT (CRT1a) were used here to examine t

In the past two decades, the eddy covariance technique has been used for an increasing number of methane flux studies at an ecosystem scale. Previously, most of these studies used a closed path setup with a tunable diode laser spectrometer (TDL). Although this method worked well, the TDL has to be calibrated regularly and cooled with liquid nitrogen or a cryogenic system, which limits its use in r

Studies seeking to validate real-time three-dimensional echocardiography (3DE) with regard to cardiac function and dimensions have almost exclusively used apical views. However, it has never been examined whether apical views are preferable to parasternal or subcostal views. In the present study, we compared the feasibility of 3DE volumetric measurements of the four heart chambers in three differe
