Uppsatsens syfte är att med utgångspunkt i före detta polisers upplevelser, beskriva och analysera, varför poliser i yrkesverksam ålder väljer att lämna polisyrket samt deras uppfattning över vilka åtgärder Polismyndigheten behöver vidta för att bli en attraktivare arbetsgivare. Vi har utfört en kvalitativ forskningsstudie med ett hermeneutiskt perspektiv, där det teoretiska och empiriska material
Doktrinen om R2P kom som en respons på de omfattande grymheter som skedde runt om i världen på 1990-talet. FN hade inte kunnat agera och förhindra de övergrepp som den civila befolkningen i exempelvis Rwanda och forna Jugoslavien hade blivit utsatta för. Man kom överens om att det krävdes en förändring för att ett skydd av de mänskliga rättigheterna skulle garanteras. Av denna anledning tillsattesThe doctrine R2P came as a response to the mass atrocities around the world during the 1990s. The UN had not been able to act and prevent the atrocities against the civilian population in, for example, Rwanda and former Yugoslavia. This demanded change, and therefore the ICISS Commission was appointed. The ICISS Commission wrote the rapport about “The Responsibility to protect”. According to their
This paper examines the connection between inflation and long-term economic growth in the European Union by using a panel data analysis over the period 1983-2023. The study is built on earlier research which indicates that inflation may have a negative impact on economic growth but especially at higher levels. Relying on both exogenous and endogenous growth theories, this study also highlights the
This thesis explores how Hannah Arendt’s idea of the "banality of evil" can clarify human rights abuses within bureaucratic systems, concentrating on the Nazi Holocaust and the internment of Uyghur Muslims in Xinjiang, China. By examining historical documents, official records, and accounts from survivors, the research investigates how administrative frameworks normalize and facilitate s
BackgroundLongitudinal data on weight change, its timing, and the age of obesity onset in relation to cause-specific mortality are limited.MethodsFrom ODDS, a nationwide pooled cohort study in Sweden, we included 258,269 men and 361,784 women with at least three weight assessments between ages 17 and 60, collected in 1963–2015. We applied linear mixed-effects models to estimate weight trajectories
Venture capital-bolag tjänar sina pengar genom att investera i företags tidiga utvecklingsskeden, för att senare sälja sin del för en större summa än de investerade. Detta gör att tillfället då venture capital-bolaget säljer är väldigt kritiskt för hur mycket de skall tjäna på sin investering. I detta skede spelar självklart en mängd faktorer in på vilket pris som erhålls. Enligt samtal med flera

Abraham från Godegård – berättelsen om en originell människa och hans musik bygger på Peter Berrys mångåriga efterforskningar om folkskolläraren Abraham Hagholm (1811-1890). Hagholm var son till en fattig torpare i en avlägsen socken av Östergötland och drabbades i tidig ålder av förlamning. Hagholm övervann svårigheterna i sitt liv genom sin starka vilja och sitt livslånga engagemang i musik. IdaAbraham of Godegård – a tale of originality and music Summarizing a story as wild and ambiguous as this one is a difficult task. My story seems to lack order but is a thorough scholarly study at the same time as being a very personal rendition of how I have proceeded along the road of my research and my search for, and relationship to the subject of my story, the school teacher and musician Abrah
Mainstream research on reading and writing is based on the assumption, common in modern linguistics, that spoken language is primary to written language in most important respects. Unfortunately, the conceptual framework for the study of language and 'literacy' (encompassing both reading and writing skills) is built around this assumption. This is problematic with regard to the philosophy of scien
BackgroundRight ventricular (RV) function is a major determinant of outcome in patients with pulmonary hypertension. Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) is gold standard to assess RV ejection fraction (RVEFCMR), however this is a crude measure. New CMR measures of RV function beyond RVEFCMR have emerged, such as RV lateral atrio-ventricular plane displacement (AVPDlat), maximum emptying velocity (S’C
Circulating proteins are vital in human health and disease and are frequently used as biomarkers for clinical decision-making or as targets for pharmacological intervention. Here, we map and replicate protein quantitative trait loci (pQTL) for 90 cardiovascular proteins in over 30,000 individuals, resulting in 451 pQTLs for 85 proteins. For each protein, we further perform pathway mapping to obtai
I denna rapport redovisas populationstrender för 175 svenska fågelarter för åren 1975–2011. Fåglarna har räknats på vintern och på sommaren enligt strikt standardiserade metoder. Sommar- respektive vinterpunktrutter har räknats sedan 1975, i huvudsak i södra Sverige. Standardrutterna räknas också på sommaren men täcker hela Sverige. De har räknats sedan 1996. Vintern 2010/2011 räknades 75 000 fåglWe present the results of the Swedish Bird Survey, run by the Department of Biology, Lund University, as a part of the National Monitoring Programme of the Swedish Environmental Protection Agency. The results for 2011 include data from 589 winter point count routes in 2010/2011 (36th winter), of which 273 were carried out during the Christmas/New Year count and 262 summer point count routes (37th
Characterization of gene expression in pancreatic islets and its alteration in type 2 diabetes (T2D) are vital in understanding islet function and T2D pathogenesis. We leveraged RNA sequencing and genome-wide genotyping in islets from 188 donors to create the Islet Gene View (IGW) platform to make this information easily accessible to the scientific community. Expression data were related to islet
This paper provides a comprehensive overview of quantile-parameterized distributions (QPDs) as a tool for capturing expert predictions and parametric judgments. We survey a range of methods for constructing distributions that are parameterized by a set of quantile-probability pairs and describe an approach to generalizing them to enhance their tail flexibility. Furthermore, we explore the extensio
Recessive diseases arise when both copies of a gene are impacted by a damaging genetic variant. When a patient carries two potentially causal variants in a gene, accurate diagnosis requires determining that these variants occur on different copies of the chromosome (that is, are in trans) rather than on the same copy (that is, in cis). However, current approaches for determining phase, beyond pare
INTRODUCTION: Survival and healthcare for patients with congenital heart disease have improved, and the number of pregnancies among women of childbearing age with congenital heart disease has increased. Our aim was to investigate obstetric outcomes in a large retrospective, national registry study of women with congenital heart disease compared to controls.MATERIAL AND METHODS: The study included
Type 2 diabetes and dementia are associated, but it is unclear whether the two diseases have common genetic risk markers that could partly explain their association. It is also unclear whether the association between the two diseases is of a causal nature. Furthermore, few studies on diabetes and dementia have validated dementia end-points with high diagnostic precision. We tested associations bet
Aims: Transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) exists in three isoforms TGF-β1, -β2, and -β3. TGF-β1 has been suggested to be important for maintaining plaque stability, yet the role of TGF-β2 and -β3 in atherosclerosis remains to be investigated. This study explores the association of the three isoforms of TGF-β with plaque stability in the human atherosclerotic disease. Methods and results: TGF-β
Cell death plays a pivotal role in many physiological processes, such as cell homeostasis, embryonic development, immune defence and in the pathophysiology of numerous diseases, such as cancer, infections and degenerative diseases. However, the lack of a comprehensive and up-to-date resource on cell death regulators poses a significant challenge to researchers in the field. Existing databases are of
