Containrar är i ständig rörelse över landsgränser, vilket gör det näst intill omöjligt för en containerleasegivare att förutse i vilka jurisdiktioner uthyrda containrar kommer att befinna sig under leaseperioden – en fråga som dock är av stor betydelse. Leasegivarens äganderättsliga skydd är avhängigt av att de länder i vilka containrarna befinner sig respekterar och upprätthåller det. Inte desto Containers are constantly crossing borders, making it almost impossible for a container leasing company to predict which jurisdictions containers on lease may enter – a question, however, of great importance. The protection of the lessor’s proprietary rights is dependent on that countries respect and uphold the protection. Nonetheless does the protection as of today vary widely and it occurs that

Denna studie syftade till att evaluera och undersöka eventuell förändring i psykologisk symtomnivå samt klienttillfredsställelse hos klienter som behandlats med kognitiv beteendeterapi eller psykodynamisk terapi på en utbildningsmottagning för blivande psykologer. Studien syftade även till att undersöka eventuella skillnader i resultatet mellan klienter i kognitiv beteendeterapi och psykodynamisk This study aimed to investigate and evaluate change in psychological symptom levels and client satisfaction in clients treated with cognitive behavioral therapy or psychodynamic psychotherapy at a training clinic for prospective psychologists. The study also aimed to examine possible differences in outcome between clients in cognitive-behavioral therapy and psychodynamic therapy, and to examine wh

Issue of study: A forecasted increase in energy demand and consumption, together with a decrease of existing oil and gas reserves, has led the oil and gas producers to new areas beyond the conventional oil and gas regions. The Arctic, an area mainly located north of the Arctic Circle, is believed to hold very large potential of the world’s yet-to-be discovered oil and gas reserves. In addition, th

This paper analyzes mortality, cancer recurrence (loco-regional, other types of cancer and distant) and the impact of progesterone status on the effect of Tamoxifen using survival analysis methods. The data consists of 258 postmenopausal women from the Southern Sweden health care region with estrogen positive receptor status receiving radiotherapy, Tamoxifen and a combination of those after mastect

The empirical study in this thesis is applying the method Dicourse Quality Index as presented in the research project published in the book Deliberative Politics in Action: Analysing Parliamentary Discourse by Steiner et Al, 2004. This method is meant to be measuring "discourse quality" as per some highlighted Habermasian definitions of deliberation through his theoretical work on "

Abstract Title: Social services department’s modern centaurs – about social worker's dual role in cases of suspected crimes contribution Authors: Branislav Ros; Carl-Johan Martinsson Tutor: Lena Palvén Examiner: Elizabeth Martinell Barfoed The purpose of this study was to examine how social workers, in the social services department of economical aid, experience their dual role as helper

This research investigates the current situation of bioenergy development in rural China from the business perspective. Biomass combustion power stations, medium and large biogas facilities, and household level biogas digesters are discussed in the research. In total 6 empirical case studies and interviews with different stakeholders are employed in the research. This thesis argues that the govern

The purpose of this essay is to study how the course books for confirmation candidates in the Church of Sweden relate and correspond to the steering documents drawn up and adopted by the Church on the one hand, and by the public system of elementary schools on the other, between the years 1962 and 1978. The research is based on printed literature, where the primary sources are the steering documen

The X-ray flux provided by X-ray free-electron lasers and storage rings offers new spatiotemporal possibilities to study in-situ and operando dynamics, even using single pulses of such facilities. X-ray Multi-Projection Imaging (XMPI) is a novel technique that enables volumetric information using single pulses of such facilities and avoids centrifugal forces induced by state-of-the-art time-resolv

Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) occurs more often among individuals with diabetes. The aim of this retrospective observational registry study was to examine whether individuals with diabetes and CTS are treated surgically to the same extent as individuals with CTS but without diabetes. Data on CTS diagnosis and surgery were collected from the Skåne Healthcare Register (SHR). A total of 35,105 individ

Sustainable products have arrived on the market and faced competition with traditional products with one extra challenge: they normally tend to be more expensive than traditional ones. Customers are yet to pay more for these products as they are alerted for environmental impacts. However, the gap between knowledge and action is being decreased slowly. One of the factors for this sluggish behavior

Transgenic techniques in inbred mouse strains are powerful tools to investigate the specific roles of genes in biological pathways and disease models. However, there is increasing concern over the influence of a variable genetic background in such experiments. To date there have been few investigations of the immunological differences between inbred mouse strains used in models of autoimmune disea

Therapeutic resistance and recurrence remain core challenges in cancer therapy. How therapy resistance arises is currently not fully understood with tumors surviving via multiple alternative routes. Here, we demonstrate that a subset of cancer cells survives therapeutic stress by entering a transient state characterized by whole-genome doubling. At the onset of the polyploidization program, we ide

To resolve the various types of biological ice nuclei (IN) with atmospheric models, an extension of the empirical parameterization (EP) is proposed to predict the active IN from multiple groups of primary biological aerosol particles (PBAPs). Our approach is to utilize coincident observations of PBAP sizes, concentrations, biological composition, and ice nucleating ability. The parameterization or

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate if ileo-psoas muscle size and visceral adipose tissue (VAT) can predict long-term survival after endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR). METHODS: Patients who underwent EVAR between 2004 and 2012 in a single centre were included. Total psoas muscle area (TPA), abdominal VAT area, subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT), and total adipose tissue were measured on the preoperative CT.

Both trio and population designs are popular study designs for identifying risk genetic variants in genome-wide association studies (GWASs). The trio design, as a family-based design, is robust to confounding due to population structure, whereas the population design is often more powerful due to larger sample sizes. Here, we propose KnockoffHybrid, a knockoff-based statistical method for hybrid a

This paper investigates the aeroacoustic properties of dual-stream co-axial supersonic jets, focusing on sound generation at the engine nozzle exit, which significantly contributes to cabin noise in supersonic civil aviation. The study delves into three primary noise-generating mechanisms present in supersonic jets: broadband shock-associated noise, jet screech, and turbulent mixing noise. While s
