Self-levelling flooring compounds (SLCs) are mainly used on concrete floors. Their purpose is to smooth the floors and make them horizontal. The fact that they are self-levelling means that they spread out like water over the floor before hardening to a horizontal layer. Some of them are also advertised as being self-desiccating. A quote from a big manufacturer on the Swedish market regarding thei
Purpose Intensity modulation of radiation is one of several important conditions to evaluate for full understanding of how cells involved in the bystander effect influence each other when cells are exposed to radiation at low and high dose rates. The aim of this study was to develop and apply a useful and practical dosimetric method for measurement of the absorbed dose to cell cultures exposed to
In Sweden the authorities’ demands gets higher and higher concerning moisture safety in the building process. Nowadays all new constructions need special planning regarding moisture safety, according to Boverkets byggregler. To fulfil their demands regarding a moisture safe building process, Boverkets byggregler recommends a method called ByggaF. This is a method for including moisture safety in t
Solidariskt ansvar har under lång tid tillämpats i Svensk lag i fall då flera personer ska svara för ett skadestånd. Det solidariska ansvaret innebär att en skadelidande kan kräva ut hela skadeståndet från endera skadevållaren. För att detta inte ska leda till orimliga slutsatser finns det dock tillfällen vid jämkade skadestånd då det solidariska skadeståndet ej används. I vilka jämkningsfall ett Joint and several liability has been used in Sweden for a long time when several people are held responsible for damages. Joint and several liability entails that a creditor can demand full compensation from any of the defendants. In order for this rule not to result in absurd consequences, there is an exception where mitigation of damages can lead to several liability instead. However, to what ex
BACKGROUND: Germinal matrix-intraventricular haemorrhage (GMH-IVH) remains a substantial issue in neonatal intensive care units worldwide. Current therapies to prevent or treat GMH-IVH are limited. Stem cell-based therapies offer a potential therapeutic approach to repair, restore, and/or regenerate injured brain tissue. These preclinical findings have now culminated in ongoing human neonatal stud
BACKGROUND: Breast cancer in young adults has been implicated with a worse outcome. Analyses of genomic traits associated with age have been heterogenous, likely because of an incomplete accounting for underlying molecular subtypes. We aimed to resolve whether triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) in younger versus older patients represent similar or different molecular diseases in the context of g
The thesis is a collection of four papers on Greek street art (specifically situated in the city of Athens) with a focus on metaphors and narratives. The overall aim guiding this thesis is to explore how street art in times of crisis can represent sociopolitical issues and in what ways these messages can be conveyed. By using the perspective of cognitive semiotics to address this, a parallel aim i
Danon disease (DD) is a monogenic X-linked disorder characterized by cardiomyopathy, skeletal myopathy and variable degrees of intellectual disability. DD develops due to mutations in the gene encoding lysosomal-associated membrane protein 2 (LAMP2). We report on a family exhibiting the clinical phenotype comprising of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and ventricular pre-excitation, myopia and mild myo
The utilization of neural stem cells and their progeny in applications such as disease modelling, drug screening or safety assessment will require the development of robust methods for consistent, high quality uniform cell production. Previously, we described the generation of adherent, homogeneous, non-immortalized mouse and human neural stem cells derived from both brain tissue and pluripotent e
This master’s thesis deals with the distinct semantic weight carried by adverbials in German sentence constructions, where they can take on functions normally performed by verbs in other languages like English. While German mostly offers the same grammatical possibilities as English does to express certain types of semantic content verbally, the two languages differ when it comes to the preference
The integration of small computer units in vehicles has made more complex in-vehicle functionality possible. To troubleshoot these more advanced functions, the diagnostic services need to read out more data from the integrated computer units, causing an increased network load. This has caused a demand on more efficient ways of performing vehicle diagnostics. One possible way to decrease the netwo
Framväxten av artificiell intelligens (AI) har medfört ett flertal utmaningar för det upphovsrättsliga regelverket. Det befintliga upphovsrättsliga regelverket ger skydd åt verk som skapats av en människa. Samtidigt har framstegen inom AI och den djupa maskininlärningen möjliggjort att AI-system genererar alster i form av litteratur, musik och bilder, som traditionellt har hört till människans dom
Att röra på sig är och har alltid varit en grundförutsättning för vår hälsa och välbefinnande. Dagens samhällsutveckling tyder på en allt mer stillasittande livsstil i form av arbeten, vardagsliv och fritidsaktiviteter. Bristen på fysisk aktivitet är en av de största hälsoutmaningarna idag och individers levnadsvanor har visat en konstaterad anledning till detta. Det har traditionellt sätt varit Movement is and has always been essential for our health and well-being. Today's social development indicates a more sedentary lifestyle in terms of work, everyday life and leisure time activities. The lack of physical activity is one of the biggest health challenges of today and the living habits of individuals have shown a strong reason for this. It has traditionally been the individual'
Den europeiska gemenskapen inom försvars-och säkerhetsfrågor rör sig allt mer ifrån transnationellt samarbete mot federal integration. Parallellt med denna utveckling identifieras på EU-nivå i dagsläget dessutom en rad nya säkerhetspolitiska utmaningar som både unionen och medlemsstaterna till stor del är överens om att hantera gemensamt. Likväl förekommer också att krav ställs på mer nationellt s
Var femte fall av dödligt våld i Sverige år 2018 bestod av dödligt våld mot kvinnor där offret och förövaren var eller hade varit i en parrelation. Mäns dödliga våld mot kvinnor i nära relationer är ett omfattande samhällsproblem som akut måste stoppas. Lagstiftning och fördömande genom rättskipning är betydelsefulla medel i striden om förändring i jämställdhetsfrämjande riktning. Det finns emelleEvery fifth case of lethal violence in Sweden 2018 was constituted by men’s lethal violence against female partners or formal partners. This kind of violence is a problem of big proportions that needs to be detained now. Legislation and condemnation through the Swedish justice system are important means to achieve change in a gender equal direction. There are however parts of the Swedish criminal
Föreliggande uppsats utreder förändringen från den 26 mars 2021 avseende den bredare tillämpningen av artikel 22 koncentrationsförordningen och undersöker de osäkerhetsmoment som därigenom uppstår för parter i företagsförvärv. Förändringen innebär ett tydligt avsteg från den Europeiska kommissionens väletablerade praxis i tillämpningen av bestämmelsen. Denna kursändring får som konsekvens att kritThe present thesis examines the changes from the 26th of March 2021 regarding the wider application of article 22 of the EC Merger Regulation, and examines the uncer-tainties that thereby arise for parties in certain mergers and acquisitions (M&A). The change constitutes a clear parting from the European Commission’s own, well-estab-lished practice regarding the application of the provision. T
Radiation protection is of importance for the general public, patients and personnel in many different situations: rare accidents involving ionizing radiation, medical examinations or work tasks in the medical clinic or nuclear industry to name a few. Optimization in radiation protection and limitation of radiation doses are essential to prevent overexposure and for reducing negative health conseq
Skattelättnadsregeln för medlemmar i oäkta bostadsföretag, som togs bort från och med inkomståret 2016, innebar att de kunde göra ett avdrag på den beskattningsbara bostadsförmånen. I och med borttagandet av denna regel påverkas cirka 5000 privatpersoner av en högre utgift för sitt boende. Att en bostadsrättsförening klassas som ett oäkta bostadsföretag beror ofta på att de har en stor andel lokalUp until recently, members of co-operative housing associations with a high income deriving from non-housing activities could benefit from a tax exemption rule. This rule was last applied in 2015 and meant that a deduction could be made for the taxable housing benefit. With the removal of this rule approximately 5,000 private individuals are affected by a higher cost for their accommodation. When

To reduce transportation cost, choosing the appropriate transportation mode is an important decision both on a strategic and tactical level. There are several models and approaches when choosing transportation mode, including several factors
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) has been developed in the USA by Marsha M Linehan, during the last two decades. Linehan elaborated this method for self-destructive women and in continuous cooperation with those women in treatment throughout her research. Randomised controlled studies have showed good results for self-destructive women with a borderline personality disorder. This group of patien
