Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a consequence of obesity and defined as cluster of at least three out of five criteria covering insulin resistance/glucose intolerance, abdominal obesity, hypertension, low HDL-c and elevated TG levels. Imbalance between energy intake and expenditure is known to alter normal physiological function in many aspects, and leads to obesity, which in the long run may turn in
Plastics are efficient materials for many purposes, e.g. packaging and construction, but are also associated with significant problems. These span from littering in forests and oceans, toxicity of additives, to the fundamental dependence on fossil resource for the production of the plastic material. This report aims to give an overview of the challenges for decarbonisation of plastics, i.e. moving
As a part of a democratic demand for transparency in urban development processes it is important that design professionals hold the ability to scrutinize their own work process, and at certain stages let go of predefined ideas of future realities. The work of Sandra Kopljar’s dissertation revolves around how design professionals perceive options for design in such situations. A basic assumption th
Background The complex carbohydrate composition of natural and refined plant material is not known in detail but a matter that is of both basic and applied importance. Qualitative assessment of complex samples like plant and wood tissues requires the availability of a range of specific probes. Monoclonal antibodies and naturally existing carbohydrate binding modules (CBMs) have been used in the pa
Popular Abstract in Swedish Svampmycel i marken hämtar sin energi både från levande och dött organiskt material. Vissa svampar hämtar energi direkt från levande växter genom att bilda en symbios som kallas mykorrhiza. Arbuskulär mykorrhiza (AM) är en sådan typ som bildas av svampar som inte kan leva utan värdväxter. AM-svamp hämtar sin energi från rötter, samtidigt tar svampen upp viktiga växtnäriArbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi colonise a wide range of plant species and are especially common in soils with a relatively high pH, where phosphorus availability is a limiting factor for primary production. The aim of this thesis was to study the ecophysiology of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi when exposed to different environments. Development of AM fungi and their host plants were investig
INTRODUCTION: Thorough treatment planning is essential for a good clinical outcome in orthognathic treatment. The planning is often digital. Both 2-dimensional (2D) and 3-dimensional (3D) software options are available. The aim of this randomized 2-arm parallel double-blinded active-controlled clinical trial was to compare the outcomes of computer-based 2D and 3D planning techniques according to p
Uppsatsen syftar till att undersöka definitionen av handelsagent i 1 § Lag (1991:351) om handelsagentur och hur denna förhåller sig till motsvarande definition i Direktiv 86/653/EEG om samordning av medlemsstaternas lagar rörande självständiga handelsagenter och dess tillämpningsområde. Uppsatsen tar sin utgångspunkt i det faktum att den svenska definitionen av handelsagent förefaller innehålla eThe purpose of the thesis is to examine the definition of commercial agent in 1 § of the Swedish Commercial Agents Act and how it compares to the corresponding definition in the Council Directive 86/653/EEG on the coordination of the laws of the Member States relating to self-employed commercial agents and its scope of application. The thesis starts out from the fact the Swedish definition of com
Uppsatsens syfte är att utreda vilket utrymme som tillkommer en god man och förvaltare att samtycka till sjukvård åt sin huvudman samt huruvida deras behörigheter skiljer sig åt. Vidare diskuteras det i uppsatsen om det kan strida mot skyddet mot påtvingade kroppsliga ingrepp i 2 kap. 6 § Regeringsformen att godta ett samtycke från dessa ställföreträdare och i så fall i vilka situationer. Metoden The purpose of this essay is to investigate the capacity for a limited guardian and administrator to consent to health care for the person they are representing. Furthermore, the essay explores whether the competence of one differs from that of the other. The essay also discusses if accepting consent from these deputies could possibly contravene the constitutional law. The method applied for answe
Textile waste presents significant harm to the environment, prompting the development of advanced textile recycling technologies. One such process recycles cellulosic fibers using zinc chloride (ZnCl2) at certain hydration levels to dissolve the cellulose, which is later precipitated by the addition of water and can be re-spun into new fibers. However, this process uses large amounts of zinc chl
Recently, a widespread attention has been given to the protection of traditional cultural expressions and traditional knowledge. Their legal protection is even more urgent in the current global society. The focus in this thesis has been given to the copyright protection of traditional cultural expressions (TCEs). The purpose of this thesis is to assess the protection of TCEs under the copyright la
In Sweden and elsewhere in the world the construction industry has encountered criticism due to its lower productivity gains in comparison to other industries. This is why continual improvement of processes and forms of cooperation are important, as is utilisation of technologies giving greater efficiencies. The focus in Sweden has mainly been on the construction of multifamily buildings, both bec
The aim of this study is to examine a possible fusion of the different legal regimes applicable to international and non-international armed conflicts. The thesis points at different means of rendering the provisions of the Geneva Conventions applicable to conflicts which appear to be non-international. The Conventions are interpreted according to the provisions on interpretation of treaties in th
I entreprenadprojekt är förändringar under kontraktstiden ofta nödvändiga till följd av projektens tekniska komplexitet, långa genomförandetid och de många osäkerhetsmoment som präglar bygg- och anläggningsarbeten. Det är sällan möjligt att i förväg förutse alla arbeten som kommer att behöva utföras. För att hantera behovet av flexibilitet innehåller standardavtalet AB 04 särskilda bestämmelser omIn construction projects, changes during the contract period are often necessary due to the technical complexity of the projects, their long duration, and the numerous uncertainties inherent in construction work. Foreseeing all the work that will need to be carried out is rarely possible. To accommodate the need for flexibility, the standard agreement General Conditions of Contract for Building an
Flygskatt har under många år varit en del av den svenska skatteaparaten. Flygskatten klassificeras som en punktskatt vilket är skatter som appliceras på ett antal produkter och tjänster som anses vara farliga för den allmänna hälsan och samhället i stort. Efter ett sammanträde i riksdagen beslutades det att flygskatten avskaffas den första juli i år (2025). Beslutet har fått blandade reakt-ioner dAviation tax has for many years been a part of the Swedish tax system. The aviation tax is categorized as an excise duty, which refers to taxes applied to certain goods and services that are considered as harmful to the public health and to society as a whole. After a session in the Swedish Parliment, it was decided that the avitation tax will be abolished on the 1st of July this year (2025). The
Type 1 diabetes, formerly known as juvenile diabetes or insulin-dependent diabetes, results from the specific autoimmune destruction of the pancreatic islet beta cells. The subsequent loss of insulin leads to increased blood and urine glucose. The classical symptoms are polyuria (frequent urination), polydipsia (increased thirst), polyphagia (increased hunger), and weight loss. The disease may be
I dagens affärsliv, med anledning av att ingåendet av ett avtal ska löpa så smidigt som möjligt, har det utvecklats olika typer av förhandlingsinstrument. Ett sådan instrument är ett s.k. letter of intent. Genom ett letter of intent kan parterna i det prekontraktuella skedet manifestera sin avsikt om att i framtiden ingå avtal. Syftet med ett letter of intent kan sägas vara att på ett ändamålsenliIn today's business world, to ensure that the conclusion of the agreement runs as smoothly as possible, various types of negotiation instruments have been developed. One such instrument is a letter of intent. Through a letter of intent, the parties can manifest their intention to enter into agreements in the future at the pre-contractual stage. The purpose of a letter of intent can be said to
