This study contains a document analysis of articles in the Swedish newspaper Aftonbladet. It's a social constructionist analysis with a discourse theory. The empirical material is published articles from the newspaper Aftonbladet between the dates 18th of October till 17th of November. Every article that contained the words “gang crime” and “gun violence” was selected. 36 articles have been re

This study aimed to investigate how women who are victims of domestic violence describe the process of leaving their violent partner. The study took empirical data from three autobiographies written by women who had experienced domestic violence before managing to leave their abuser. The research questions used to answer the study’s aim revolved around the women’s descriptions of the factors that

This study aimed to investigate the differences between girls and boys who get sentenced to the Care of Young Persons (Special Provisions) Act in Sweden. We wanted to investigate if there were any differences between why they get sentenced and if the view on gender about social problems differs in the court documents. The method was based on qualitative research to analyze twenty court documents,

Empathy is a multifaceted competency that underlies socioemotional functioning, improves prosocial behavior, and prevents mental health risks, which makes its development central during childhood with long-lasting impacts on individuals’ lives. In this systematic review we investigate which aspects of caregiver-child conversations that are critical in fostering children’s empathy. The study and se

Emulsioner är blandningar bestående av två olika vätskor (även kallade faser) som inte löser sig i varandra. Vanligtvis består den ena vätskan av någon typ av olja och den andra vätskan vanligtvis av vatten. Bägge faserna kan även bestå av andra vätskor eller fasta ämnen som är lösliga i antingen vattnet eller oljan. Om emulsionen är utformad så att oljan är fördelad i små droppar i vattnet, så kaOil in water (o/w) emulsions are thermodynamically unstable systems composed of small oil droplets dispersed in a continuous aqueous phase. This means that given enough time, the two phases will separate. Pharmaceutical emulsions are used as a method of administering the Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient (API) for topical applications. The API for this project will be dissolved in the aqueous phase

Idag används stål eller titan som fixtur för benbrott. Dessa måste opereras in, och efter läkning opereras ut igen. En kandidat att ersätta dessa material är Magnesium, vilken naturligt och ofarligt bryts ned i kroppen så en andra operation inte behövs. För att kunna designa en magnesiumlegering vilken kan användas som implantat vid benbrott måste vi förstå hur nedbrytningsprocessen går till. FörMagnesium alloys are promising candidates as biomedical implants. However, a good understanding of their degradation processes is lacking. In this work, degradation in two magnesium alloys were studied in a simple physiological-fluid electrolyte of H2O+0.9wt%NaCl, Mg-5wt%Zn (Z5) & Mg-5wt%Zn-0.3wt%Ca (ZX50). Z5 alloy was studied in two microstructural states, as-cast and as a supersaturated sol

Köttätande bakterier – från ofarlig till livshotande Bakterier är små levande ting som inte är synliga för blotta ögat. Alla bakterier orsakar inte sjukdom och vissa bakterier gör det om de befinner sig på fel plats i din kropp. Köttätande bakterier har fått sitt namn från att dom gör att vävnad i kroppen dör och när det sker orsakar dessa bakterier en mycket sällsynt och livshotande infektion. I

Den samtida och framtida brassbandskompositionen" är ett examensarbete som syftar till att, utifrån ett tonsättarperspektiv, undersöka musik som är komponerad för brassbandstävlingar och identifiera de komponenter som behövs i både komposition och instrumentation för att skapa såväl en konstnärlig produkt som tävlingsförutsättningar. För att genomföra detta har författaren Daniel Möllås - tiThe contemporary and future brass band composition" is a thesis which, from a composers point of view, aims to investigate music composed for brass band competitions and to identify the components needed in both composition and instrumentation, in order to create an artistic product as well as conditions for competing. To accomplish this, the author Daniel Möllås - also a composition student

The CFSP has become a focal point of legal and political analysis, particularly concerning its impact on fundamental rights and the free movement of capital. Departing from that situation, the thesis attempts to delve into the complex question as its research question to find out how the EU balance its collective interests in pursuing sanctions with national sovereignty, the fundamental rights of

Tuberculosis (TB), caused by infection with Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) remains a global health threat, claiming 1.6 million lives in 2021 alone and infecting an estimated quarter of the world’s population in a latent or controlled infection. Glycolipids make up a large part of the bacterial cell wall and closely interact with innate immune cells, influencing their response upon infection. Th

Megalencephalic leukoencephalopathy with subcortical cysts (MLC), is a congenital leukodystrophy with childhood onset. It is an extremely rare genetic disorder of the brain that affects less than 1 per 1,000,000 live births. Patients typically present macrocephaly during early childhood and later develop symptoms like decreased motor and cognitive functions, and epileptic seizures, all of which us

Utvärdering av Variantrankmodellen vid Genetiska Sjukdomar Vid misstänkt genetisk sjukdom kan en person få remiss till helgenomsekvensering, vilket är en teknik där näst intill hela DNA-uppsättningen (genomet) hos patienten blir avläst. Detta kan användas till att hitta skillnader, eller varianter, mellan patientens genom och ett friskt genom. Alla människor har väldigt många små ofarliga genetisIn this master’s thesis, different options to update the variant rank model used at the University hospital in Lund are presented. The variant rank model filters genetic variants from whole genome sequencing. This is done to identify potential causative variants in patients. Since the knowledge concerning these variants and rare genetic diseases grows rapidly, the model which filters said variants

Travelling in a straight line, answers in a beetle brain If you find yourself outdoors in South Africa you might stumble upon a ball-rolling dung beetle determinately rolling a dung ball. if you then follow the direction of the beetle from where it was rolling along a straight line, you will find yourself at a dung pat. The dung beetle is capable of rolling a dung ball in a straight line. It assi

En potentiell biomarkörer för prostatacancer metastaser Prostatacancer (PCa) är den vanligaste cancerformen hos män i industriländer. Då den primära tumören inte längre är en stor utmaning för dagens medicin, är den metastaserande sjukdom den främsta orsaken till cancerrelaterade dödsfall hos dessa män. Trots många olika palliativa behandlingar mot metastaser, finns det ingen tillgänglig behandl

A guide in the darkness; A system shedding light on mRNA pseudouridylation by PUS7 Proteins, the building blocks of life, are produced from messenger RNA (mRNA). mRNA is built by four ribonucleotides, namely adenine (A), guanine (G), cytosine (C) and uridine (U). Interestingly, RNA includes also chemically modified versions of the above nucleotides affecting many physiological processes. The most

Type 2 diabetes is a growing health problem. 537 million people had diabetes in 2021 and the number is continuously increasing. Our group previously showed that the isoforms of the complement inhibitor CD59, named IRIS-1 and IRIS-2 (Isoforms Rescuing Insulin Secretion 1 and 2) are localized in the cytoplasm of pancreatic ß-cells, where they are needed for insulin secretion. A downregulation in the

Decoding Colors: How mutations in barley genes affect pigmentation Plants are an incredibly diverse group of organisms that share one crucial component: the presence of a green pigment called chlorophyll. Chlorophyll plays a pivotal role in capturing light energy and facilitating the process of photosynthesis, which converts this light energy into chemical energy. The green appearance of plants i
