Background: Electroconvulsive seizure (ECS)-treatment, a model for electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) has been shown to induce proliferation of endothelial cells in the dentate gyrus (DG) of adult rats. Here we quantified the net angiogenic response after hypoxia a known inducer of aniogenesis. Therefore we also examined the effect of oxygenation on ECS-induced proliferation of endothelial cells.

Popular Abstract in Swedish Syftet med avhandlingen är att undersöka bondeskapets (the peasantry)framtida existens. Analysen görs på global nivå, men framför allt på lokal nivå i samband med implikationerna av Mexikos nya jordreform från 1992. Bonden dekonstrueras i ekonomisk-och sociopolitisk aktör för att belysa hans/hennes complexitet. Försörjningsstrategier i tider då staten ersätts av markandThe thesis deals with a classical issue, that of the fate of the peasantry, in particular the process of the transformation of the peasantry. The aim is to explore whether there is a place for the smallholding peasantry in the future, or if the process of dissolution is inevitable. The discussion of this broad question is approached by first deconstructing the peasantry into economic actors and so

This thesis investigates accessible information to the “interested citizen” about EU-related matters in his/her city, with a theoretical method that departs from Dahl’s (1998) definition of democracy, and focuses especially on the criteria of enlightened understanding. The study consists of analyses of online information and city council debates as well as interviews and mail correspondence with l
Under början av 2000-talet växte konceptet Responsibility to Protect (R2P) fram i syfte att stärka skyddet för befolkningar i vissa särskilt utsatta situationer. Genom konceptet skulle det internationella samfundet åläggas en skyldighet att skydda människor. Konceptet har dock sedan dess tillkomst kritiserats flitigt i den internationella debatten och har fortfarande inte uppnått rättslig status. During the beginning of the 21st century, the concept of Responsibility to Protect (R2P) emerged with the purpose of strengthening the protection of populations at certain risk. Through the concept, the international community was supposed to carry a responsibility to protect human beings. However, the concept has been highly criticized in the international debate ever since its foundation and has
Barn och unga som enlig LVU är placerade på särskilda ungdomshem befin-ner sig i en särskilt utsatt situation. Utöver de särskilda befogenheter som ut-tryckligen regleras i LVU och som inskränker barnens grundläggande rättig-heter, används i praktiken även åtgärden fasthållning. Denna åtgärd är inte reglerad i LVU som särskild befogenhet men används ofta i samband med eller i stället för avskiljniChildren and young people who, according to the Care of Young Persons (Special Provisions) Act (the Act), are placed in special residential homes are in a particularly vulnerable state.

In the last ten years labor economists have become increasingly interested in convex earnings structures in the labor market and their impact on the gender pay gap, an approach spearheaded by Claudia Goldin in her 2014 Presidential Address to the American Economic Association. The study has seen widespread acclaim, but very little replication. This study replicates parts of Claudia Goldin’s work,
During excavations, steel sheet piles are often installed through vibratory driving, to establish a retaining wall that resists soil instability and ground water leakage. The method of vibratory driving is that the sheet pile is driven into the soil with a vertical vibratory motion. This is especially effective in soft soils. In parts of Sweden, however, the most common type of soil is the glacial
The global pandemic of Covid-19 has drastically changed the behaviour of citizens around the world. This research aims to identify actions that ensure low-carbon, inclusive forms of mobility that respond to the behavioural changes during Covid-19.

The construction sector is one of the biggest contributors to global CO2 emissions and buildings account for a significant part of the energy use in Sweden. Population growth in combination with economic development is putting more pressure on the environment, resulting in escalating consumption trends and larger quantities of raw material extraction.

This thesis examines the blockchain technology from a General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) point of view. The focus area is the protection of personal data in blockchains. Blockchain can be summarized as a shared, decentralized ledger where data can only be added, not removed. In essence, it works like a trust-creator that has the potential to remove the need for middlemen. From a legal pers

Uppsatsen syftar till att utreda rättsläget i frågan om en allmän reklamationsplikt vid avtalsbrott i situationer som inte omfattas av någon lagreglering. Ett särskilt syfte är att klargöra reklamationsplikten närmare beskaffenhet när det handlar om avtal om komplexa immateriella tjänster, såsom rådgivnings- och undersökningstjänster.

A legal dogmatic method is appli
De provokativa åtgärderna är en polisiär arbets- och utredningsmetod, vilken traditionellt beskrivs som att polisen i sitt brottsbekämpande arbete lockar fram beteenden från en enskild brottsmisstänkt, i form av yttranden eller handlingar, som kan vara ofördelaktiga för vederbörande.

Rätten till nödvärn är en av de ansvarsfrihetsgrunder som rättfärdigar en annars brottsbelagd gärning. För att nödvärn ska föreligga måste nödvärnshandlingen inte vara uppenbart oförsvarlig samt och det måste föreligga en nödvärnssituation. I denna försvarlighetsbedömning granskas angreppets beskaffenhet, det angripnas betydelse och omständigheterna i övrigt. Andra faktorer som kan påverka bedömniThe right to self-defence is one of the few ways to render an otherwise illegal action legal. The right to self-defence can only be given if the action taken by the attacked was not clearly unjustifiable and the situation calls for self-defence, according to the situations given in first paragraph in the 24 chapter of the Swedish Penal Code.
