Denna uppsats har till syfte att utreda det rättsliga klimatet och se på vilka faktorer som påverkade rättstillämpningen under de svenska häxprocessernas tidiga skede. Den ska även se hur detta tillsammans med myndigheternas agerande påverkade processernas fortsatta spridning. För att uppnå detta inleds uppsatsen med att ge en överblick över samhället och den gällande rätten vid häxprocessernas This paper aims to investigate the legal environment during period of 1667-1672 and to see which factors influenced the application of law during the Swedish witch trials in their early stages. It will also investigate how these factors, along with the actions of the authorities, affected how the early witch trials spread over the country. To achieve this, the essay begins by giving an overview of

Background: Selected patients with advanced germ cell tumors have a poor prognosis. These include patients with brain, bone or liver metastases, very elevated tumor markers or primary mediastinal tumor. High-dose chemotherapy (HDCT) with autologous stem cell support is recommended in the Swedish and Norwegian Testicular Cancer Group (SWENOTECA) guidelines in selected poor risk patients with poor r

UV irradiation is getting increasingly popular as a disinfection step in drinking water production. Ringsjöverket, a drinking water treatment plant in Sweden installed a full-scale UV aggregate in December 2016. However, the effect of UV irradiation on drinking water has mainly been tested on specific pathogens in labscale environment. Heterotrophic plate counts are often used when analyzing drink

Popular Abstract in Swedish Bröstcancer är den vanligaste cancerformen hos kvinnor i Sverige. Årligen drabbas 7000 kvinnor i Sverige och cirka 1500 kvinnor dör av sin sjukdom. Bröstcancer uppkommer genom ett samspel mellan livsstil, miljö och gener. En kvinna som har en förstagradssläkting (t.ex. syster, mor) med bröstcancer har ungefär dubbelt så stor risk att drabbas av bröstcancer jämfört med e

Introduction: Although Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is associated with early death, its life expectancy differs greatly between patients. A better understanding of this heterogeneity may reveal important disease mechanisms underlying the malignancy of AD. The aim of this study was to examine the relation between AD pathologies and early death in AD caused by dementia. Methods: At a memory clinic, 247

Popular Abstract in Swedish Abdominellt aortaaneurysm, (AAA) är termen på en utvidgning av den storakroppspulsådern i dess förlopp i bukhålan. Fyra av fem drabbade är äldre män och rökning är vanligt förekommande. Sjukdomen, som innebär en succesivt ökande diameter på kroppspulsådern kan på siktmedföra en bristning, ruptur av kroppspulsådern och patientens nära förestående död. Oupptäckt och utan

This is the first comprehensive monograph on the subject of the architect Fred Forbat. He was a pioneer of functionalism who worked in four different countries. Besides being a presentation of Forbats work, interesting in itself, this investigation also aims at addressing certain questions regarding the history and concept of functionalism as a style and movement. I deal with the work in chronolog

In a prospective study of a consecutive breast cancer series accumulated in the period 1978-82, the S-phase fraction (SPF) and ploidy status were determined by flow cytometry performed on cell nuclei derived from samples of 580 primary tumors. Sixty percent of the tumors were non-diploid. After correction for debris the median SPF values were 7.3% overall, 12% for non-diploid tumors, and 2.9% for

Antibiotic resistance poses a global threat. Antibiotics are administered to 80-90% of terminally ill patients but evidence of their effectiveness in improving survival or symptom relief at the end of life (EOL) is scarce. To determine the proportion of deceased patients that continue antibiotic treatment after documented EOL discussion and the decision to prioritise symptom relief over active tre

Background Few studies on long-term exposure to air pollution and mortality have been reported from Europe. Within the multicentre European Study of Cohorts for Air Pollution Effects (ESCAPE), we aimed to investigate the association between natural-cause mortality and long-term exposure to several air pollutants. Methods We used data from 22 European cohort studies, which created a total study pop

Background: An increasing number of patients with central nervous system (CNS) tumor could survive to reproductive age and successfully have children, especially patients diagnosed at a younger age. However, it is largely unknown whether the history of CNS tumor and its treatments might affect their children. We aimed to explore the health status and school performance in offspring of survivors wi

Background Evidence-based guidance for starting ages of screening for first-degree relatives (FDRs) of patients with prostate cancer (PCa) to prevent stage III/IV or fatal PCa is lacking in current PCa screening guidelines. We aimed to provide evidence for risk-adapted starting age of screening for relatives of patients with PCa. Methods and findings In this register-based nationwide cohort study,

BACKGROUND: Heart failure (HF) is a common complication to atrial fibrillation (AF), leading to rehospitalization and death. Early identification of patients with AF at risk for HF might improve outcomes. We aimed to derive a score to predict 1-year risk of new-onset HF after an emergency department (ED) visit with AF. METHODS AND RESULTS: The RE-LY AF (Randomized Evaluation of Long-Term Anticoagu

Background: There is recent evidence supporting that a comprehensive post-stroke treatment program improves outcome. However, the prevalence of stroke-related health problems and the extent of needed interventions have not been well-delineated. The Struct-FU study aims to assess the feasibility of a comprehensive stroke follow-up model and to map stroke-related problems and subsequent multidiscipl

Background: The Tau PET ligand 18F-AV1451 has been shown to reliably detect paired helical filaments of tau in Alzheimer's disease, but it is not yet known whether it binds to the tau aggregates present in patients with mutations in the gene (MAPT) coding for the tau protein. Further, no study has yet compared the cerebral retention of 18F -AV1451 with the tau aggregates revealed using neuropathol

Objective: To provide clinical clues to differential diagnosis in patients with chorea and other movement disorders with blood acanthocytes. Background: Neuroacanthocytosis (NA) is an umbrella term for neurological conditions associated with acanthocytosis. Core NA syndromes, with basal ganglia involvement and in which acanthocytosis is a frequent finding, include autosomal recessive choreaacantho

Ovaj članak prezentira teoretski i metodološki model za analizu prepričanih iskustava bivših logoraša koji su kao civili odvedeni u koncentracione logore početkom rata u Bosni i Hercegovini 1990-tih godina. Cilj je analizirati prepričane rituale ratnog nasilja u koncentracionim logorima kao i identifikovati kako se počinioci ratnog nasilja i žrtve simbolično definiraju u pričama. Priče o nasilju u

Background: Sweden has closed all institutions and imposed legislation to ensure service and support for individuals with intellectual disability (ID). Understanding mortality among older individuals with ID is essential to inform development of health promotion and disease control strategies. We investigated patterns and risk of mortality among older adults with ID in Sweden. Methods: This retros

Polonium-210 is an alpha particle emitting radioactive element with a half-life of 138 days. It appears at the end of the decay-chain of Uranium-238 where the long lived Lead-210 (22.3 a) decays to Bismuth-210, and finally Polonium-210. 210Po is introduced into the biosphere through various routes of terrestrial and marine radioecological pathways. The level of 210Po activity in drinking water (5
