Detention as a measure of last resort only for the shortest period of time? This is the title of the thesis and also the key question to be investigated. Children involved in the criminal justice system are far too often infringed upon their fundamental human rights. As a result children are subject to maltreatment, neglect and abuse. According to the law, the rights of the child shall in all situ

Background and purpose — Traditional surgery forarthritis of the distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ), which typicallyinvolves resecting the ulnar head, is being increasingly challengedby newer techniques, such as prosthetic ulnar headreplacement. The aim of our prospective cohort study was toinvestigate the clinical and patient-reported functional results,up to 2 years postoperatively, among patients w

Background: The coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) pandemic posed pronounced challenges in the care of lung transplant (LTx) recipients. Global variations in containment strategies and the introduction of messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) vaccines have sparked extensive debate in both scientific and public arenas. Methods: This retrospective study compared outcomes among LTx recipients in Denmark

Background Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) represents a group of rare hereditary disorders characterised by deficient ciliary airway clearance that can be associated with laterality defects. We aimed to describe the underlying gene defects, geographical differences in genotypes and their relationship to diagnostic findings and clinical phenotypes. Methods Genetic variants and clinical findings (a

PURPOSE: This study aimed to examine the associations between the intake of high- and low-fat fermented dairy (cheese and fermented milk), their proteomic profiles, and mortality risk.METHODS: This cohort study included 25,187 participants (mean age 57.7 years, 60.9% females). Fermented dairy intake was assessed by a modified diet history method. In a random subset of this cohort (n = 4359), we co

Problem background: The past few years, banks have gone from only being lenders and borrowers of money to also cover a broad portfolio of offers to customers. Banks today supply their customers with several investment alternatives for the savings capital. It is a fierce competition at the financial market and the employees must continuously keep up to date with all the new information and knowledg

The starting point of our thesis is the new Education Act (Skollagen) which was introduced in Sweden during 2011. It requires that all students have access to a school library, regardless of the type of school. Since the new Education Act’s (Skollagens) introduction, the school library has received a statutory basis and thus a stronger position in today’s schools. However, the Act does not define

The Elderly people in Zambia face numerous challenges resulting from high poverty levels, stigma, and social exclusion, poor service provision in old people's homes, and lack of proper care and support from family and the public. In addition, changes in population ageing have also resulted in increased longevity affecting the obligatory responsibilities of the state and the family to meet indi

Intresset för etablering av solcellsanläggningar på Skånes jordbruksmark har ökat kraftigt under de senaste åren i takt med stigande elpriser och den pågående omställningen till en fossilfri energiförsörjning. Samtidigt står Skåne för en stor del av Sveriges livsmedelsproduktion, vilket innebär en potentiell målkonflikt mellan två viktiga samhällsintressen; mat-och energiproduktion. En central aktThe interest in establishing ground-mounted solar power plants on farmland in southern Sweden has increased considerably during the last years, as the electricity price is increasing and the society is transitioning to reach climate targets. As Scania counts for a large part of the Swedish food supply, this leads to a potential conflict of interests between energy and food production. In the esta

With a growing human population on Earth, the demand of food increases rapidly. Today the meat industry is responsible for 10-12% of the total amount of greenhouse gases emitted by humans. During 2010, USA and Europe consumed approximately 40% of the world’s total beef production. This by only holding 17% of Earth population. With a high meat consumption over a small population it’s possible to af

This master thesis was a project in cooperation with Höganäs AB. The aim was to increase the apparent density (AD) of two biomass chars, by three different agglomeration methods. The reason for the investigation is that biomass char could be used as a reducing agent in the sponge iron process at Höganäs AB. The goal was to exchange anthracite in the reduction mixture to agglomerated biomass char.

Most migratory bird species divide their migration in stages of flight and stopovers. They use these stopovers to refuel the energy reserves needed to face their long migration journeys. These stopovers are an important element to determine the overall migration speed. Time spent on migration and arrival date to the wintering grounds have been demonstrated to have a large effects the following bre

Kolloider är partiklar i storleksordningen nm till μm. De är viktiga i biologiska system, där exempelvis proteiner är en typ av kolloid. Att studera kolloider ger oss därför insikt i hur till exempel proteiner byggs upp och interagerar. I detta fall försökte vi tillverka kolloidala molekyler, alltså kolloider som interagerar med varandra genom ett specifikt antal bindningar i väl definierade positThe ability of thermoresponsive, amine-functionalized microgel particles to take part in microgelmicrogel inter-cross-linking has previously been reported in the literature, in connection to applications such as for example the formation of stimuli-responsive colloidal gels and colloidosomes [1]. This thesis deals with the synthesis of such thermoresponsive, cross-linkable microgels and their subs

The study contains both an empirical and theoretical purpose. The aim is to analyze and explain the current portrayal of auditors by Swedish media, and if and when this portrayal is made in a positive way. Different theoretical perspectives will be combined in order to develop a more comprehensive framework for analysing the relation between media and auditors. The theoretical framework is based

The elderly population within the European Union is growing where as the amount of caregivers is not. The objective of the NavMem project is to make older citizens more self-sufficient and confident specifically while traveling on foot. This could potentially lead to a more active and social life while decreasing the need of senior citizen care. With this objective in mind the NavMem consortium ha

Material och produkter som kan innehålla hälsofarliga ämnen förekommer på förskolor i Hässleholms kommun. Bristande kunskap och rutiner bidrar även till barns exponering för dessa ämnen. Det är av vikt att man arbetar långsiktigt för giftfria förskolor. Åtgärder finns, och en hel del kan göras omgående för att minimera problemet. Användningen av kemikalier har ökat markant de senaste decennierna.During the last decades the production and consumption of chemicals has increased dramatically. We know that some chemicals are hazardous for humans and the environment but for most of them our knowledge is limited. Children are very sensitive to hazardous substances compared to adults because of their undeveloped bodies and different behavior. Due to lacking knowledge and regulation of chemicals

Det nya forskningsfältet barnrätt har vuxit sig starkare inom juridiken på senare år. Parallellt med denna utveckling har diskussioner om att göra barnkonventionen direkt tillämplig som lag i Sverige förts på flera håll i samhället. I Norge har barnkonventionen varit gällande rätt sedan 2003. Juridiska studier om barn har emellertid främst haft familjerätten som utgångspunkt. Denna studie tar avstChildren’s rights, as a new field of study, has grown stronger in the legal area the last few years. Side by side with this development, discussion has arisen concerning the implementation of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child as a law in Sweden. Norway implemented this convention as national law in 2003. In Sweden legal studies regarding children continue primarily to be don
