Popular Abstract in Swedish Den här avhandlingen tar sin utgångspunkt i de omfattande ökningarna i övervikt och fetma som har observerats, och blivit ett stort folkhälsoproblem, runtom i världen, och som har kommit att benämnas fetma-epidemi. Det inledande kapitlet motiverar att fetma studeras från ekonomiska perspektiv och ger en bakgrund till de efterföljande kapitlen. Därefter följer fyra fristThis thesis takes its starting point in the large spread and rise in obesity prevalence that have been observed around the world, making obesity an increasing public health concern. The thesis consists of an introductory chapter, which justifies the study of obesity from economic perspectives and puts the subsequent studies in context, and four studies that address obesity from different economic

Today there are climate policy targets within the EU and Sweden about limiting global warming and drastically reducing greenhouse gas emissions. In order to stay within the goal of a global warming of less than 2 ºC, the industrialised countries should decrease their emissions by 80-95 % in 2050, and bring them down to zero in the longer run. Scenario studies indicate that this is possible to achi

Are anti-vibration gloves the solution to the problem of hand-arm vibration?Vibrations from hand-held machinery are a major problem in the Swedish labour force. In 2009, 14% of men and 3% of women of employed in Sweden reported exposure to hand-arm vibration at least a quarter of their working time according to the Swedish Work Environment Authority (Arbetsmiljöverket 2010). It is tempting to imag

It is now becoming increasingly clear that free radicals contribute to brain damage in several conditions, such as hyperoxia and trauma. It has been more difficult to prove that free radical production mediates ischemic brain damage, but it has often been suggested that it may be a major contributor to reperfusion damage, observed following transient ischemia. Recent results demonstrate that cereb

1. INTRODUCTION Geographers at the University of Lund have been active in research on desertification/ land degradation and environmental change monitoring of African drylands since the mid 1970’ies and of Asian drylands since the beginning of the 1990’ies. The results obtained so far do not confirm the concept of desertification as a mainly man made phenomena but indicate that the importance of c

Popular Abstract in Swedish Vad triggar kunskapsprocesser och kunskapsstrategier i projektbaserade organisationer? Sofia Pemsel, Institutionen för Byggvetenskaper, Lunds Tekniska Högskola. Inledning Vad avgör om en organisation har välutvecklade och fungerande kunskapsprocesser och färdigheter eller inte? Varför är vissa organisationer fantastiska på kundhantering medans andra är fenomenala i teThe beauty of projects lies in their ability to integrate different knowledge bases and expertise in novel ways. Projects, though, are temporary in nature and this has consequences for the organization that uses them as a business strategy to improve its efficiency. Project-based organizations are representative of this organizational form and can either be standalone or subsidiary organizations w

Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingen behandlar barns flyttningar hemifrån i det förindustriella bondesamhället. Utöver att studera när barn lämnade hemmet kopplas också flyttningsprocessen till den förindustriella hushållsekonomins funktionssätt. Analysen görs på ett longitudinellt material för ett område i västra Skåne under perioden 1829-1866. Individerna följs från födseln, eller från det aThis study deals with the process of children leaving home and its interactions with the household economy in preindustrial society. A theoretical model of leaving home is outlined and then analyzed multivariately, using a longitudinal micro-level dataset for a sample of parishes in western Scania, Sweden, for the period 1829-1866. In a first introductory part the social and economic background as

Popular Abstract in Swedish Naturliga störningsregimer är viktiga drivkrafter i vegetationsdynamiken hos de flesta skogstyper jorden runt. Att förstå de rumsliga och tidsmässiga egenskaperna i störningarna, såväl i nutid som i förfluten tid, är viktigt bl a vid utformningen av strategier för naturvård, likväl som för att kunna modellera inflytandet av klimat och människans påverkan. I denna avhandNatural disturbance is an important driving force of community dynamics in many forest types around the globe. Understanding spatial and temporal properties of disturbance events in the present and in the past is important in formulating the nature conservation strategies as well as for the modeling of climate and human impacts on forest vegetation. In this thesis I studied wind and fire disturban

Land remediation is an important part of restoration measures after a radioactive fallout containing long-lived fission products such as 137Cs. In this multidisciplinary study, we focused on three main issues related to remediation of contaminated urban areas. First, we assessed how much decontamination contributes to reducing resident radiation exposure and how much this reduction depends on the

Amputation of a hand is a life-changing event, and the loss of motor and sensory functions leads to disability and has devastating effects on the individual. What is normally performed using two hands must be solved with only one, and the loss also affects body balance and body posture. In addition, amputation of a hand has psychological effects, and has an influence on social life, participation,

Recent years have brought new directionality to university’s work with innovation – increasing the focus on addressing societal challenges and contributing to much broader frames for impact. Working with complex challenges, where no one actor can do everything by themselves, requires collaboration across actor groups (private sector, academia, public sector, civil society), industrial sectors, dis

Periprostheteic joint infection (PJI) is a rare complication of arthroplasty with severe consequences for the affected patients. PJI most often necessitates additional surgery and prolonged courses of antibiotic treatment, leading to worse functional results and increased societal costs. Evaluating treatment of PJI as well as preventive efforts are essential to increase our understanding of PJI an

Många avtal, speciellt sådana som rör komplicerade frågor eller stora ekonomiska värden föregås av omfattande förhandlingsmoment. Om förhand-lingarna strandar kan parterna drabbas av förluster – dels i form av utebliven vinst från det tilltänkta avtalet, och dels i form av nedlagda kostnader som inte längre kan komma till nytta. Eftersom denna situation inte omfattas av ett bindande avtal blir deBefore entering into a contract, the parties thereto are often involved in extensive preliminary negotiations, especially if the contract in question concern complicated issues or a large economic value. If the negotiations fail, costs and expenditures incurred during the negotiations are no longer useful, and the parties stand to lose the expected profit of the prospective contract. Since this si

Uppsatsen utvärderar och undersöker effekterna av den svenska regleringen gällande särskilda transaktionsavtal, s.k. budrelaterade arrangemang. Detta genom att undersöka regleringens effekt på den svenska kapitalmarknaden och målbolagsaktieägare. Grunderna för den svenska takeoverregleringen presenteras genom att undersöka de relevanta bestämmelserna i, och förhållandet mellan, aktiemarknadsrätt, The thesis evaluates and examines the effects of the Swedish regulation of deal protection arrangements by looking to the impact of the provision on the Swedish capital market and target shareholders. The foundations of the Swedish takeover regulation are examined by presenting and arguing the relevant provisions in, and relationship between, stock exchange law, corporate law and EU law. Fiduciar

Background: Growing corporate awareness of environmental and social impacts, coupled with initiatives like the Science-Based Targets initiative (SBTi), is driving companies to address greenhouse gas emissions, particularly indirect Scope 3 emissions which often constitute the largest share of their carbon footprint. For ASSA ABLOY, Scope 3 emissions represent 99% of its total footprint, with purch

Merry Go Round: Rolling-circle telomere elongation Imagine a shoelace. At the end of the shoelace, there is a protective piece called an aglet, keeping the fibers together. A human chromosome is a bit like that, too – long and linear, with a characteristic structure at the end called the telomere, which protects the chromosome from instability. With each cell division, a piece of the telomeric
