The thesis explores online knowledge production around a subject that has been considered taboo and inappropriate through history – sexual, reproductive and genital health for people with female genitals. Therefore, it also examines the political potential of coming together to openly discuss such “delicate issues”. The focus of the study is the Swedish Facebook-group “Fittlife – underliv och häls
Rådande rättsläge ger antydningar om att den avdragsrätt ekonomiska föreningar erhåller för lämnad utdelning under vissa omständigheter kan brukas på ett otillbörligt sätt. Syftet med denna framställning är att genom den rättsdogmatiska metoden försöka utreda vilka förutsättningar som måste föreligga för att ett fåmansföretag och dess ägare vid utdelning, ska kunna åtnjuta skattemässiga fördelar v
The aim of this study was to examine how death and mourning is portrayed in children’s books used in social work. A selection of five books, all written relatively recently and originating from Western European countries, was made based on advice from a hospital library, an important resource for medical social workers. These books were analyzed using content analysis, where we searched for themes
Achieving the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) depends on timely and reliable information. However, standardized methodologies and regularly available data exist for only 40% of the 232 indicators. The “Data Revolution for Sustainable Development” is supposed to bridge these data gaps by harnessing ongoing developments in information technology, particularly big data. Currently existing pil
Power systems operate at a specific frequency and constantly require a balance between production and consumption of electricity in order to maintain the frequency within a certain interval. Larger frequency deviations can cause blackouts or damage equipment connected to the grid. Balancing functions that stabilise the grid are referred to as \textit{ancillary services}, which in Sweden include th
Deciduous forests and especially oak (Quercus robur) and beech (Fagus sylvatica) are very important for biodiversity and provide habitats for many threatened species. They are also good environments for recreation. Bruces forest in Helsingborg is a nature reserve where rejuventation of deciduous forest is a main objective. Hence, this study examined factors influencing rejuvenation, different reju
Scania is a region vulnerable to climate change and climate models project an increase in extreme precipitation events for this area. Pluvial flooding in urban areas is mostly associated with the large amount of impermeable surfaces and sewer system overload. In 2014 the County Administrative Board of Scania released a regional action plan for adaptation strategies and stormwater is described as a
The notional amounts outstanding of over-the-counter (OTC) derivatives had grown exponentially for almost two decades and its rapid growth were mainly due the increase in OTC interest rate derivatives. As of december 2014, the total notional amounts outstanding in the global OTC market was 630 trillions USD and the OTC interest rate derivatives represents about 80% of the market. Trading with OTC
This thesis compares the performance of the first-differenced maximum likelihood estimator (FDML) and the Blundell-Bond continuously-updating system GMM estimator of the autoregressive parameter in an AR(1) dynamic panel model without exogenous covariates, particularly focusing on the close-to-non-stationary case. This case is far from trivial, as a high degree of persistence is the norm rather th
This master thesis examines disabled residents’ roles as citizens in a place branding process within the political framework of a place. This is in line with the resident approach in a political context within the research field of place branding. My contribution to the resident approach is a case study in the municipality of Borås, where I study the organized work of accessibility between citizen
Med hjälp av koncernbidrag, vilket kan ges mellan koncernbolag, uppnår svenska företagsgrupper en utjämning av sina resultat. Att ge koncernbidrag är möjligt bara mellan helägda dotterbolag. Med helägt menas i detta fall att moderbolaget måste äga dotterbolaget till mer än 90 procent. Det uppställs alltså ett så kallat ägandekrav för moderbolaget. Genom aktuell praxis, främst HFD 2021 ref. 66 har
Abstrakt Bakgrund: I Sverige år 2020 föddes det cirka 114 500 barn. Av dessa föds ungefär 2% med en missbildning som behöver behandlas inom medicinsk eller kirurgisk vård. De barnkirurgiska diagnoserna inom Nationell Högspecialiserad vård (NHV) är endast en liten del av alla de medfödda missbildningarna. Forskningslitteraturen som behandlar barn och familjer med NHV-diagnoserna utifrån ett familj
Abstrakt Bakgrund: Det finns kunskapsbrister om fertilitet, vilket har visat sig påverka individers val av tidpunkt för familjebildning. Senarelagd familjebildning kan leda till ofrivillig barnlöshet eller färre antal barn än önskat. Initiativ för ökad kunskap om fertilitet har bland annat kritiserats för att inte vara tillräckligt skräddarsydda för olika målgrupper. Ökad fertilitetsmedvetenhet r
Bakgrund: Majoriteten av personer med schizofreni upplever begränsningar relaterat till aktivitet och delaktighet i vardagliga aktiviteter. Symtombilden består till stor del av positiva och negativa symtom och en bristande sjukdomsinsikt. Det råder begränsad evidens kring hur arbetsterapeutiska interventioner påverkar aktivitet och delaktighet för personer med schizofreni. Syfte: Att kartlägga arb
The ambition of this study is to assess whether it is most tactically advantageous to have fewer larger surface combatant ships compared to more smaller ones within the framework of a coastal defense operation in Swedish waters. The study notes that since the torpedo was first fired in anger in battle more than 135 years ago, small warships have for long had the ability to sink larger warships. Th
Organiserad brottslighet har under de senaste åren varit en viktig kriminalpolitisk fråga och är det än idag. Media rapporterar frekvent om skjutningar kopplade till hämndaktioner i den kriminella miljön, problem i de utsatta områdena, mord som inte går att klara upp samt företag som förskingrat miljonbelopp. Det ska nämnas att den organiserade brottsligheten har bytt skepnad genom tiderna. MångsiOrganized crime has been an important criminal policy issue in recent years and remains an important issue today. The media frequently reports on shootings linked to retaliation in the criminal environment, problems in the vulnerable areas, murders that cannot be solved and companies that have cheated millions of dollars. It is said that organized crime is a phenomenon that has changed shape over
Heating is a big factor in protected horticulture and current high fuel prices mean many UK growers cannot afford to plant this season’s crops. Meanwhile, vast quantities of surplus heat exist, often an unwanted by-product of other industries. Theoretically, this heat could be used to offset fossil fuel consumption in horticulture, reducing cost and environmental impact. Despite technical and econ
Pyruvate is one of the main molecules needed for the citric acid cycle, which produces energy in the form of ATP. The citric acid cycle reaction occurs in the mitochondrial matrix, and for pyruvate to participate in the reaction, it needs to be transported from the cytosol across the mitochondrial membranes into the mitochondrial matrix. A special membrane protein called the mitochondrial pyruvate
