Under början av 1900-talet införde alla nordiska länder, förutom Norge, en möjlighet för frihetsberövade kvinnor att medföra sitt spädbarn i anstalten under straffverkställigheten. Regleringarna grundades på arvsbiologiska aspekter, då det var vanligt att de små barnen fortfarande ammades av sina mödrar och de var beroende av modersmjölken för att överleva. Med tiden har dock regleringarnas syfte In the beginning of the 20th century all Nordic countries except Norway introduced a possibility for imprisoned women to bring their infants with them during their sentence. The legislation was considered necessary due to the fact that the infant still was breast-fed by their mother. Child psychologist and psychoanalysist John Bowlby (from Great Britain) developed the affiliation theory during th

Background/Purpose: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Systemic inflammation, driven by cytokines such as TNF, IL-6 and IL-17A, has been implicated as a contributing factor to CVD development in RA. The objective of this study was to investigate the impact of 92 inflammatory proteins on the risk of CVD events in patients with early RA.Me

BackgroundNanowires are a high-aspect-ratio material of increasing interest for a wide range of applications. A new and promising method to produce nanowires is by aerotaxy, where the wires are grown in a continuous stream of gas. The aerotaxy method can grow nanowires much faster than by more conventional methods. Nanowires have important properties in common with asbestos fibers, which indicate

Background: Posterior cortical atrophy is a rare syndrome characterised by early, prominent, and progressive impairment in visuoperceptual and visuospatial processing. The disorder has been associated with underlying neuropathological features of Alzheimer's disease, but large-scale biomarker and neuropathological studies are scarce. We aimed to describe demographic, clinical, biomarker, and neuro

Participants judged the risk of an infection during a face to face conversation at different interpersonal distances from a SARS-CoV-2 infected person who wore a face mask or not, and in the same questionnaire answered questions about Corona related issues. Keeping a distance to an infected person serves as a protective measure against an infection. When an infected person moves closer, risk of in

BACKGROUND: Despite absence of evidence of a clinical benefit of arthroscopic partial meniscectomy (APM), many surgeons claim that subgroups of patients benefit from APM.OBJECTIVE: We developed a prognostic model predicting change in patient-reported outcome 1 year following arthroscopic meniscal surgery to identify such subgroups.METHODS: We included 641 patients (age 48.7 years (SD 13), 56% men)

Design The study employed a qualitative semistructured interview design to gain in-depth insights. Data were collected in 2024, and an explanatory model was formed in accordance with grounded theory analysis. Setting Interviews were c

Jag har i detta arbete tagit fram en metod för att mäta mängden fett i muskelceller som vare sig kräver vävnadsprover eller nålstick. Metoden ger också en bild av fettfördelningen i vävnaden. Detta kan vara mycket användbart vid utveckling av läkemedel, men också vid diabetes- och fetmaforskning. Muskelceller innehåller ett bränsleförråd i form av en droppe fett. För diabetespatienter och som en b"Introduction Cardiac steatosis, or overstorage of fat in the cardiac muscle cells, is a possible side effect from drugs treating diabetes mellitus. Therefore, a non-invasive means of fat quantification is needed during drug development. The aim of this master thesis is to develop a method to quantify the fraction intra-myocellular fat in the cardiac muscle of rats using magnetic resonance im

This paper gives the reader an opportunity to explore new grounds regarding a relatively new field that has opened in Sweden. The result is based on an explorative research conducted by us, with starting point whether immigrants, consisting of Middle Eastern ones, can be seen as an attractive target group for big grocery shops. In order to understand whether they are attractive to target, we need

Miljörätten är en väldigt speciell del i den svenska rätten, och när det gäller miljöstraffrätten och miljöbrott är detta ett väldigt komplext område. Från att tidigare ha varit en uppdelad miljölagstiftning på inte mindre än 16 lagar, till att efter reformationen 1999 samla alla dessa i en ny miljöbalk som från och med då skulle bli den centrala delen i Sveriges arbete mot en hållbar utveckling. Environmental law is a very special part of Swedish law, and in terms of environmental law and environmental crime, this is a very complex area. From having previously been a divided environmental legislation of no less than 16 laws, until after the 1999 reform, all of them gathered in a new environmental bar that would then become the central part of Sweden's work towards sustainable developm

Staten har ett behov av att kunna inkräva obetalda skatteskulder från juridiska personer. Lösningen på detta har varit det så kallade företrädaransvaret. Detta ansvar ger staten möjlighet att utkräva ansvar från bolaget solidariskt med dess företrädare. Verkställande direktörer, styrelseledamöter och andra med ett bestämmande inflytande över bolaget måste uppfylla vissa skyldigheter, annars riskerThe state has a need of being able to collect unpaid tax debts from juridical persons. The solution to this has been the so called personal liability. This gives the state the possibility of demanding accountability from the company alongside it’s representatives. Chief executives, board members and others with determinant influence have to meet certain responsibilities, If not they risk having to

The European Union has committed to the ambitious target of increasing renewable energy sources by 27% in the energy consumption of member states by 2030. Biomass is considered as one of the most promising renewable energy resources to meet these goals. Currently, energy from biomass contributes up to two-thirds of the 28 member states primary combined renewable energy production. In Hungary, the

Hearing is our second most important sense. The main focus of a surveillance camera is obviously the video but the audio shouldn't be neglected. It is possible to hear what the camera can't see and what is said in a conversation can't be showed in a video. Therefore there are good reasons to always try and achieve the best audio possible. This is not an easy task since cameras are oper

Climate change is a long-term challenge that requires urgent actions. An increased amount of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, causing changes in the climate system such as melting glaciers and extreme weather conditions, are correlated to economic growth. To mitigate climate change, there is a need to evolve efficient strategies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from companies within all branc

Standardization plays a key role in modern industries. Standards provide compatibility and interoperability of products, thus increasing their value for consumers. In fact, standards go beyond that and positively affect market integration, consumer safety, environment issues etc. The European Union actively supports standardization run by Standard Setting Organizations. These organizations operate

The current Lambda Cold Dark Matter cosmology predicts galaxy growth by hierarchical merging, leading to galaxy substructure like tidal streams and dark matter subhalos devoid of stars. The goal of this thesis is to investigate whether tidal stream-subhalo interactions can leave observable gaps in the streams, and at which rate this might happen in a galaxy like the Milky Way. The stream-subhalo i

Sub-Saharan Africa suffers from land degradation, depletion of natural resources and rural poverty. In the Lake Victoria Basin, where large parts of the population are small scale farmers, people are facing such issues coupled with altered climatic conditions. The focus area of this study is the Mara region in northern Tanzania, situated on the eastern lakeshore. Mara has experienced a doubling of
