OBJECTIVE: Approximately 5-10% of prostate cancer cases are caused by dominantly inherited susceptibility to the disease. Although advances have been made in research concerning the genetic mechanisms of hereditary prostate cancer, little is known about the psychological consequences. The aim of this study was to assess possible negative psychological effects of screening for prostate cancer in a

Prophylaxis and treatment with antiretroviral drugs and elective caesarean section delivery have resulted in very low mother-to-child transmission of HIV during recent years. Updated general treatment guidelines and increasing knowledge about mother-to-child transmission have necessitated regular revisions of the recommendations for the prophylaxis and treatment of HIV-1 infection in pregnancy. Th

Popular Abstract in English Drizzle a thin stream of olive oil into water. The oil splashes into tiny little drops first, and in a fraction of a second, they emerge from bulk to the surface, and then coalesce to form a thin layer. This phenomenon relates to the molecular properties of the liquids. Olive oil is composed, in a large extent, of molecules with a fierce name, triglycerides, which are bSolid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations were employed to study molecular structure and dynamics in amphiphilic bilayers. This thesis reports on method development and practical applications to two types of bilayer systems: simple cell membrane models composed of phosphatidylcholine lipids and cholesterol; and liquid crystals composed of eth

Multiple Sclerosis (MS), is a neurologic, autoimmune disease characterized by CNS immune cell infiltration and demyelination. To experimentally study MS, we have utilized the mouse model Experimental Autoimmune Encephalomyelitis (EAE). EAE is induced through immunization with myelin antigens, which elicits an autoreactive Th1 cell response. Encephalitogenic T cells migrate into the CNS where they

The presence of activated protein C resistance, plasma hyperhomocysteinemia and the MTHFR C677T mutation in patients with central retinal vein occlusion were investigated and compared to a control group. Activated protein C resistance was overrepresented in the group of patients less than 50 years of age whereas this was not the case in patients more than 50 years of age. Neither hyperhomocysteine

INTRODUCTION: Hypertension and dyslipidemia often precede cardiovascular disease. Lifestyle modifications help prevent these conditions, and referrals for women may be possible during reproductive health care visits. However, screening recommendations vary, which may affect screening rates. The objectives of this systematic review were to 1) assess the available literature on the effectiveness of

Popular AbstractDenna rättssociologiska avhandling studerar "law in progress" genom att undersöka de normbildningsprocesser som framkommer i en interaktion mellan aktörer över tid. Avhandlingen har en empirisk utgångspunkt och illustrerar dessa processer utifrån ett empiriskt exempel, ett Europeiskt "Earth Observation" (EO) initiativ: Global Monitoring for Environment and Security (GMES). AvhandliThis PhD-thesis in Sociology of Law studies ”Law in Progress” by investigating norm-generating processes, which emerge through an interaction between actors over time. The thesis has an empirical approach, thus illustrates these processes through an empirical example, a European “Earth Observation” (EO) initiative: Global Monitoring for Environment and Security (GMES). The main research questions

Legitimacy has been a key concept in political philosophy since Plato’s Republic. In this degree project I examine the way in which Shakespeare portrays royal legitimacy in seven of his History plays: Richard II, Henry IV parts I-II, Henry V and Henry VI parts I-III. The objective is to examine the representation of two aspects of royal legitimacy and how they relate to each other: the inheritance

The Global Compact on Refugees, which is to be adopted in the autumn of 2018, represents an aspiration on the part of the international community towards strengthened solidarity with refugees and affected host countries and is the most ambitious instrument of its kind to date. Indeed, the creation of the Refugee Compact is timely, although perhaps also somewhat surprising in an era of rising popul

Abstract: Interest conflicts has been a major issue when it comes to urban planning especially when it comes to traffic planning. The purpose of this thesis is to identify these conflicts and why they appear in the planning process. The aim of the research is to evaluate what can be done in order to ensure that these conflicts does not affect the planning of sustainable cities in a dissatisfactory

Under de senaste decennierna har Högsta förvaltningsdomstolen i ett flertal rättsfall konfronterats med frågan huruvida oförbindande förvaltningsbeslut, d.v.s. beslut som inte är verkställbara och inte bindande (utan positiv rättskraft) för framtida beslut, kan överklagas. Dessa förvaltningsbeslut har ofta involverat uppmaningar från myndigheter till enskilda att företa vissa handlingar eller avstOver the last few decades, the Supreme Administrative Court of Sweden has in several cases been confronted with the question of whether non-binding administrative decisions, i.e. decisions that are not enforceable and not binding (without collateral estoppel effect) with regard to future decisions, are subject to appeal. These administrative decisions have often involved authorities urging individ

Lung cancer is the third most frequently diagnosed cancer in Europe. The diagnosis of lung cancer is often made late and the clinical management of lung cancer is often multimodal. Radio-chemotherapy may be the primary treatment. Undesired effects of radiotherapy include esophagitis, cough, skin reactions and fatigue. The aim of the study was to explore lung cancer patients' experiences of the

En stor del av världens sjötransporter går mellan Asien och Europa. Idag är den södra rutten genom Suez-kanalen populärast, men efter att isen i Arktis börjat smälta har den norra rutten öppnats upp som en möjlig utmanare till den södra rutten och skeppsägare ställs nu inför ett val. Sjötransport är en riskfylld verksamhet och både den södra och den norra rutten innehåller områden med ökad risk. There are two main shipping routes between Europe and Asia, among those the Southern Route through the Suez Canal is by far the most popular route. Due to a decrease in Arctic sea ice, the Northern Sea Route have opened up and is expected to become a viable alternative and a possible competitor to the Southern Route. The purpose of this essay is to contribute by advising ship-owners on what route

Tropical deforestation, primarily driven by the expansion of agricultural land use, is responsible for significant global CO2 emissions, threatening current climate goals. Indonesia experiences one of the highest deforestation rates, endangering its rich biodiversity and human health. Global demand for Indonesia's crops is a critical force behind its increasing deforestation. Recent bilateral

In the past century, Sweden has seen vast developments in narrowing the gender earnings gap between men and women. Nevertheless the gap still remains, and has revealed patterns of stagnation in the recent decade. In the presence of a gender earnings gap there is an unequal distribution of economic power between men and women, which may lead to an inefficient resource allocation. Today there is a l

Number theory is in a sense among the oldest disciplines of mathematics. A running theme is that many number theoretic problems are very easy to state and understand. However, actually solving these problems often requires much work or some very clever trick. An extreme case of this would be Fermat's last theorem: originally a conjecture by French lawyer Pierre de Fermat whose statement is und

Eftersom Storbritannien efter mer än 30 år sedan CISG:s ikraftträdande fortfarande inte har anslutit sig till konventionen, frågan uppstår om varför så är fallet. Kan det vara så att det till en viss del kan bero på skillnader angående hur den engelska tillämpliga lagen ifråga och CISG ställer sig till skyldigheten att betala skadestånd? Syftet med uppsatsen är att klargöra de likheter och skillnaSince the U.K. after more than 30 years from the CISG’s enforcement still has not adopted the Convention, the question arises; how come? Could it be that this partially is due to differences in how the English applicable law and the CISG addresses liability for damages? The objective of this paper is to elucidate the similarities and differences in the two laws, regarding the seller’s obligation t
