Objective: To investigate the feasibility of active heart sparing (AHS) planning in patients with locally advanced and centrally located NSCLC receiving standard definitive radiotherapy (RT), while maintaining or improving appropriate lung, esophagus, and spinal cord constraints and planning target volume (PTV) coverage intent. Methods and materials: A total of 27 patients with stage IIIA/B NSCLC
At present, in potato starch industries, not only starch is extracted from the process but even proteins and fibers are recovered as they are economically valuable. Unfortunately, the process used for protein recovery can only partially recover protein from the potato fruit juice (PJ), while the reaming PJ is concentrated using an evaporator and is later on used as fertilizers. Potato starch indus
Barnhandel är rekrytering, transport, överföring, inhysande eller mottagande av ett barn i syfte att exploatera hen. I Sverige, som i första hand är ett destinationsland för barnhandel, identifieras ett 50-tal barn per år som offer för människohandel. Antalet okända fall uppges dock vara betydligt högre. Med barn re-trafficking avses varje situation där ett barn som har brutit sig loss från en mänChild trafficking is the recruitment, transportation, transfer, harbouring, or receipt of a child for the purpose of exploitation. In Sweden, which primarily is a country of destination for child trafficking, around 50 children per year are identified as child victims of human trafficking. However, the number of unknown cases is said to be significantly higher. Child re-trafficking means any situa

The thesis focuses on optimizing microfluidic methodology to create lipid sponge phase nanoparticles (L3NPs) for myoglobin encapsulation, while investigating buffer and pH effect on particle characteristics. Traditional LNP production methods like ultrasonication are time consuming and requires large material quantities. Microfluidic techniques offer a more precise and cost effective alternative b
Background: Life skills-based approaches are broadly used in HIV prevention programmes world-wide. However, evaluations of such programmes have found mixed evidence for their effects on indicators of safer sexual behaviour. Methods: Questionnaires of 4,381 participants of the Star for Life (SFL) life skills-based prevention programme in South African schools were analysed using binary logistic reg
Wheat bran is a by-product from the production of wheat flour. Nowadays wheat bran is mostly used as feed for animals, in the food and baking industry or it is simply burned in open air. However, wheat bran could be used in biorefineries for production of value-added products such as bioplastics, biofuels and chemicals as a substitute for fossil feedstocks as petroleum. Since wheat bran is an agri
Abstract Trying to preserve the forest is an important issue considering its tremendous impact on the ecosystem and subsequently on humans and their lives. On the other hand, humans have changed the area of the forest in different ways. Therefore, investigating the human impact and helping to prevent the destruction of the forest plays a vital role in preserving biodiversity and maintaining ecosys
Background: Type 2 diabetes (T2D) and dementia represent a growing dual burden in aging populations. These conditions share pathophysiological mechanisms that may create a self-reinforcing cycle in which cognitive impairment affects diabetes management, a crucial factor for preventing complications. Despite Sweden's comprehensive care, there is limited longitudinal evidence on how cognitive
Lagen om anställningsskydd infördes år 1974 för att trygga anställningen för alla enskilda arbetstagare på den svenska arbetsmarknaden. Tidigare hade arbetstagarnas rättigheter reglerats i kollektivavtal och endast vissa arbetstagares rättigheter var reglerade i lag. Några regler som infördes i 1974 års lag var bland annat saklig grund för uppsägning enigt 7 § LAS. För att saklig grund skulle anseThe Employment Protection Act from 1974 was implemented in to Swedish law as a way to secure the employments of the employees. Before the implementation of the Act, the rights of the employees were regulated in collective agreements. By then there were only some rights regulated in the law. Some of the regulations that were implemented in to the Employment Protection Act was the 7§. The 7 § states
The problem studied in this thesis is the impact of the principle of mutual trust on the possibility of EU nationals to claim asylum and avoiding extradition for political offences within the EU. The principle of mutual trust presumes that human rights are not violated in any EU Member State. The difficulty arises if and when human rights are actually violated. It is not clear to what extent funda
The building industry accounts for a large part of the world’s carbon dioxide emissions. At the same time the awareness of sustainable construction and production phase has increased and focus has been directed towards the material wood. Likewise, continuing urbanisation requires multi-storey buildings made of wood which brings along certain difficulties and challenges. Due to the low mass of wood
Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka förslaget att införa en ny form av uppgiftsskyldighet, Mandatory Disclosure Rules, i skatteförfarandelagen. Förslaget består dels av en implementering av EU-direktivet DAC 6, dels av en inhemsk reglering som saknar motsvarighet i DAC 6. Det huvudsakliga syftet med förslaget är att motverka aggressiv skatteplanering. I uppsatsen används den rättsdogmatiska The purpose of this thesis is to review the proposal to introduce a new reporting obligation, Mandatory Disclosure Rules, in the Swedish Tax Procedures Act. The proposal consists partly of an implementation of the EU directive DAC 6, partly of a domestic regulation without parallel in DAC 6. The main purpose of the proposal is to counter aggressive tax planning. In the thesis, the traditional lega
BACKGROUND: One of the major environmental threats to human health is air pollution. It contributes to premature deaths of millions of people worldwide. Air quality issues are growing exponentially in developing countries (West et al. 2016). More specifically, household air pollution that results from indoor cooking with solid fuels is damaging to the human health in LMIC. About 54% of global popu
Sammanfattning Surrogatmoderskap är inte är tillåtet i Sverige och har på senare tid blivit en mycket omdebatterad och högst aktuell fråga. Till följd av förändrade uppfattningar och föreställningar i samhället utreds nu huruvida surrogatmoderskap kan införas som en metod för att avhjälpa ofrivillig barnlöshet. En viktig aspekt på området är att hänsyn måste tas till det blivande barnet. Bedömning
Syftet med uppsatsen är att ur ett kritiskt perspektiv granska dagens rättsläge och klargöra om bolaget kan bli ansvarigt för fel eller brister i prospekt. Sverige har sedan en lång tid tillbaka haft en haft en restriktiv inställning till att ålägga någon person ansvar för rena förmögenhetsskador. Ansvaret för fel eller brister i prospekt är ett område där restriktiviteten blir tydlig. Endast föThe purpose of this essay is to from critical perspective examine today’s legal position and clarify whether a company can become liable for errors or omissions in a prospectus. Sweden has for a long time had a restrictive attitude to impose any liability for pure economic loss. The responsibility for errors or omissions in a prospectus is an area where the strictness becomes clear. Only for one g
I detta examensarbete åtar jag mig uppgiften att analysera bevisteori gällande svensk straffprocessrätt utifrån ett kunskaps- och vetenskapsteoretiskt perspektiv. Härvid försöker jag först besvara frågan om vilka idéer eller föreställningar om kunskap som kommer till uttryck i bevisteorin. Jag gör dock inte anspråk på någon uttömmande uppräkning av dessa, utan vill snarare ge en översikt över ett In this graduate thesis I set out to analyze Swedish evidence theory (as it pertains to procedural law in criminal cases) using epistemology and philosophy of science. In doing so, I have attempted to answer question of which ideas or concepts, borrowed from these two disciplines, can be found in Swedish evidence theory, whether explicit or implicit. On this account, it has not been my aim to give
