The purpose of this study is to examine the international legal instruments specifically addressing the practice of enforced disappearance and analyse if they are sufficient in relation to the gravity and seriousness of the crime. The instruments examined are: the International Convention for the Protection of All Persons from Enforced Disappearance, the Inter-American Convention on Forced Disappe

Background Technological advancements over the last decades have resulted in an increased degree of digitalisation within as well as in between companies around the world. As a result, requirements on companies in general are growing and global competition is steadily increasing. One area for which this is highly relevant, and for which there is still a lot of potential for improvement, is industr

Popular Abstract in Swedish Hjärt- och kärlsjukdomar är idag den vanligaste dödsorsaken i stora delar av världen för både män och kvinnor. I Sverige är hjärtinfarkt den vanligaste dödsorsaken för kvinnor över 55 år och för män över 45 år. Det vill säga kvinnor drabbas cirka 10 år senare. Tidigare forskning har baserats i huvudsak på män varvid forskning på kvinnor med hjärt- och kärlsjukdomar har Background: Coronary heart disease (CHD) is the sleading cause of mortality in men and women in Western society. Few studies of CHD have been performed on women or with a focus on cardiac risk factors in women’s lives. Results from studies of men have been generalized to women, which may be inappropriate or even dangerous. Aim: The overall aim of this thesis was to describe women’s experience of a

Popular Abstract in Swedish Bakgrund: Regelbunden fysisk aktivitet och träning anses som en livsstilsfaktor som kan förbättra muskelstyrkan, skelettet, konditionen och kroppssammansättningen. För barn och ungdomar är fysisk aktivitet inte bara viktigt för att träna de muskulära funktionerna, koordinationen och balansen. I ett större perspektiv kan en fysiskt aktiv livsstil också minska risken för Background: Regular participation in physical activity or organized exercise is regarded as one important lifestyle factor that could improve musculoskeletal health, fitness and body composition. For children and adolescents physical activity is important not only in training of the neuromuscular system, coordination and balance, but in a wider perspective, for adopting a lifestyle that possibly r

Popular Abstract in Swedish Partikelfysik och det vetenskapliga arvet Har du gått i en ljus vänlig skog om sommaren när vinden susar bland löven och små djur kilar omkring under gräset och solen skiner på din hud och kittlar din amygdala i det innersta av din hjärna? Har du någonsin reflekterat över naturens oändliga rikedom? Hur kan en värld vara uppbyggd som uppvisar en sådan komplexitet? Vill HERA-B is a high-energy physics experiment at HERA. It is a fixed-target experiment with a forward spectrometer to benefit from the strong boost of beauty hadrons. The main goal of HERA-B is to detect and measure the degree of CP violation in exclusive B-decays, with emphasis on the {em golden} decay, $golden$. A computer simulated study on this decay is presented and the accuracy of the measureme

It is expected that, in the future, gas turbines will be operated on gaseous fuels currently unutilized. The ability to predict the range of feasible fuels, and the extent to which existing turbines must be modified to accommodate these fuels, rests on the nature of these fuels in the combustion environment. Understanding the combustion behavior is aided by investigation of syngases of similar com

This essay explores the possible influence from WTO law into Community law in the area of State aid. In order to do so one needs to examine questions relating to material law as well as EC enforcement and procedure. Special attention is paid to State aid as regulated in Article 87.1 ECT. When an EC Member State thinks that another Member State is violating Article 87 ECT by administering illegal a

Question: What is the interrater agreement of EEG interpretation in adult comatose post cardiac arrest patients using the American Clinical Neurophysiology Society (ACNS) standardized critical care EEG terminology? Methods: The EEG-data were obtained from patients included in the Target Temperature Management trial (TTM), an international, multicenter, clinical trial of temperature management in c

There are no known estimates of the prevalence, severity and impacts from breathlessness in low- and middle-income countries. This study aimed to explore the prevalence, severity, self-attributed underlying conditions and impacts of breathlessness limiting exertion in community-dwelling adults in India. This exploratory, population-based online survey recruited a pre-planned sample of 3,000 adult

To avoid discomfort, health care professionals may hesitate to pursue conversations about end of life with patients. Certain tools have the potential to facilitate smoother conversations in this matter. The objective was to explore the experiences of patients in palliative care in using statement cards to talk about their wishes and priorities. Forty-six cards with statements of wishes and priorit

As more people are surviving cardiac arrest, focus needs to shift towards improving neurological outcomes and quality of life in survivors. Brain injury after resuscitation, a common sequela following cardiac arrest, ranges in severity from mild impairment to devastating brain injury and brainstem death. Effective strategies to minimise brain injury after resuscitation include early intervention w

Estimating age distributions, or star formation histories, of stellar populations in the Milky Way is important in order to study the evolution of trends in elemental abundances and kinematics. We build on previous work to develop an algorithm for estimating the age-metallicity distribution which uses the full age-metallicity probability density functions (PDFs) of individual stars. No assumptions

Crowding has a major impact on the dynamics of many material and biological systems, inducing effects as diverse as glassy dynamics and swarming. While this issue has been deeply investigated for a variety of living organisms, more research remains to be done on the effect of crowding on the behaviour of copepods, the most abundant metazoans on Earth. To this aim, we experimentally investigate the

Comparing 3D neutron and X-ray microtomography (NCT and XCT) results of fully pyrolyzed and pristine samples, we observed that the contrast in the neutron images increased for the carbonized samples, suggesting that H would be concentrated at the surface of the carbonized material structure.

This is an account that should be heard of an important struggle: the struggle of a large group of experts who came together at the beginning of the Covid-19 pandemic to warn the world about the risk of airborne transmission and the consequences of ignoring it. We alerted the World Health Organization (WHO) about the potential significance of the airborne transmission of SARS-CoV-2 and the urgent

We study the spectral phase introduced by parametric amplification and how high extraction efficiency of energy leads to deterioration of the phase. Avoiding this regime, and using a pulse shaper, we achieve high-contrast ultrashort pulses.
