On February 23, 2022, The EU Commission published its Proposal for a Directive of the European Parliament and of the Council on Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence and amending Directive (EU) 2019/1937 (“CSDDD” or “the Proposal”). The purpose of the Proposal, to further the “Union’s transition to a climate-neutral and green economy in line with the European Green Deal and in delivering on the U

Traffic safety is a complex and important research area with the potential to save many lives in the future. Two key problems are considered, namely the gathering of reliable and detailed road user statistics which can be used to estimate the safety of a traffic environment and taking advantage of surveillance infrastructure to guide and assist vehicles in real time, primarily autonomous ones. A c

Background and purpose: In younger patients with a femoral neck fracture (FNF), internal fixation is the recommended treatment regardless of displacement. Healing complications are often treated with arthroplasty. We determined the rate of conversion to arthroplasty up to 5 years after fixation of either undisplaced FNFs (uFNFs) or displaced FNFs (dFNFs).Patients and methods: The study was based o

Allergic disease affects millions of individuals worldwide and leads to both impaired life quality of the affected individuals and large economic costs for the society. Allergen-specific antibodies of IgE type act as one of the key players in the disease, by activating effector cells upon binding of its allergen. Allergen-specific antibodies of other isotypes, such as IgG, can instead act protecti

En översättningsvolym som innehåller ett brett urval av Lasse Söderbergs (f. 1931) dikter, från 1955 till 2017. Medöversättare är den amerikanska poeten och översättaren Carolyn Forché (f. 1950), professor vid Georgetown University.

Allergic diseases affect many individuals world-wide and are dependent on the interaction between allergens and antibodies of the IgE isotype. Allergen-specific immunotherapy (AIT) can alter the development of the disease, e.g., through induction of allergen-specific IgG that block allergen-IgE interactions. The knowledge of epitopes recognized by allergy-causing and protective antibodies are limi

Förändringar i det svenska välfärdssamhället har devalverat ersättningsnivåer för ekonomiskt bistånd. Mottagare av ekonomiskt bistånd söker även ekonomisk hjälp från Svenska kyrkan. Diakonerna arbetar med ekonomisk hjälp, trots att kyrkan saknar nationella riktlinjer för hur och till vem hjälpen förmedlas. Forskningen om kyrkans hjälpverksamhet är sparsmakad, och det finns ingen forskning utifrån Despite changes in the Swedish welfare system with a devaluation of income from the Social Services and a request from government to civil society to carry out welfare tasks, little research has been conducted on service users’ experience of support from civil society. This article investigates service users’ reasons for seeking economic support from the Church of Sweden and what they think charac

Idag framstår det som obegripligt. Från 1400-talet och tre århundraden framåt avrättades omkring 35 000 människor i Europa, anklagade för att ha ägnat sig åt förbjuden trolldom. Majoriteten av de drabbade tillhörde de lägre socialskikten, med enstaka undantag i högborgerliga och adliga kretsar. Långt mer än hälften av de åtalade var kvinnor. Och ingen av dem hade, såvitt vi vet, verkligen gjort nå

Manual co-speech gestures can facilitate language comprehension, but do they influence language comprehension in simultaneous interpreters, and if so, is this influence modulated by simultaneous interpreting (SI) and/or by interpreting experience? In a picture-matching task, 24 professional interpreters and 24 professional translators were exposed to utterances accompanied by semantically matching
