Barriärer mot abort - Kvinnors upplevelse av abort i Europa ur ett genusetiskt perspektiv

Bakgrund: World Health Organisation [WHO] anser att helhetsinriktad abortvård ska inkluderas in basal hälsovård. WHO anser därför att länder ska lagstadga om tillgänglig, säker och rättvis abort på kvinnors egen begäran. Abortlagstiftningen varierar dock kraftigt mellan länderna i Europa och går i olika grad emot WHO:s rekommendationer, vilket påverkar kvinnors tillgång till abortvård. Restriktiva

Discovery of the Selective and Orally Available Galectin-1 Inhibitor GB1908 as a Potential Treatment for Lung Cancer

We have previously described a new series of selective and orally available galectin-1 inhibitors resulting in the thiazole-containing glycomimetic GB1490. Here, we show that the introduction of polar substituents to the thiazole ring results in galectin-1-specific compounds with low nM affinities. X-ray structural analysis of a new ligand-galectin-1 complex shows changes in the binding mode and l

War inflation and taxation

Warfare has been commonly associated with increasing levels of inflation, with important implications for tax systems. In this chapter, we first review the literature on war finance and inflation, considering both the fiscal causes of inflation during wartimes and the effects of inflation on tax revenues. Second, we focus on developments in the income tax during the World Wars, building upon our p

Att översätta polysema ord. Hur polysema ord påverkar måltexten i översättningen av Gabor Matés In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts: Close Encounters with Addiction

Utgångspunkt för denna uppsats är Gabor Matés facklitterära bok In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts: Close Encounters with Addiction från 2008. Första delen av uppsatsen innehåller en källtextanalys av boken, där bland annat bokens kontext, innehåll och stil diskuteras. Andra delen av uppsatsen utgörs av en översättningsanalys, där hanteringen av några polysema ord analyseras. Före själva analysen prese

The Meaning of Work: Or Why Somebody Creates a Chair

This thesis an interview-based study that will broach the topic of meaning in work by looking at how meaning is created amongst Swedish artisans; a group of labourers defined by their uniqueness in contemporary labour-norms. The focus of this study is the theorisation of two processes which create meaning within artisan labour: one based on reflexive engagement with production, and one based o

Composting Colonialism - An Ethnographic Study of Ecological Māori Agriculture

This ethnographic study outlines the spiritual and political underpinnings of three Māori farms in Aotearoa/New Zealand. I conceptualise a sub-division of the Degrowth movement interested in incorporating Māori worldviews and traditions into ecological agriculture. The participants’ aspirations and experiences are analysed as examples of a movement in the dawn of a new developmental phase. I depic

Leveraging eBPF to Produce Container Audit Data for the Purpose of AppArmor Profile Generation

This thesis investigates the possibility of leveraging eBPF to audit containerized workloads to produce data equivalent to AppArmor auditing, with the goal of later using that data to automatically generate AppArmor profiles to protect those workloads. The report presents several challenges posed by the restrictive nature of eBPF as well as how these challenges were addressed in the implementation

A Systematic Review of Research Gaps in the Built Environment of Inpatient Healthcare Settings

OBJECTIVE: This study utilized the evidence-gap map method and critically examined the scope, methodologies, and focus of the studies that investigated the influence of the built environment on inpatient healthcare settings over a decade (2010-2021).METHODS: We conducted a systematic review per the preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analyses guidelines and surveyed 406 artic

Investigating the Inhibitory Factors of Sucrose Hydrolysis in Sugar Beet Molasses with Yeast and Invertase

Sugar beet molasses is a low-value byproduct from the sugar industry. It contains significant amounts of sucrose (approx. 50% (w/w)), which can be used for many different applications, for example, as feedstock for the production of fuel (as ethanol) and biobased chemicals such as 5-hydoxymethyl furfural (HMF). To produce platform chemicals, sucrose is hydrolyzed into its monomeric C6 sugars: gluc

Timing of acceleration peaks and acceleration changes

Articulators accelerate and decelerate continuously during speech. Previous research reveals a structured pattern of deceleration peaks aligning with segment onset and acceleration peaks with segment offset. This study reports on previous EMA findings on 18 speakers while also sets out to explain why the deceleration peak lags behind at onset boundary, as previously reported. A qualitative analysi

”Du ser bara kriser och katastrofer!” En studie om kuratorns upplevda hinder och möjligheter att fråga om våld i ungas parrelationer

Youth intimate partner violence (Youth IPV) has long been an overlooked field of research, but an increasing number of recent studies are showing the extent and severity of the problem. Health care plays an important role in identifying Youth IVP, but there are no official guidelines regarding which profession within health care should have the responsibility, knowledge, or competence to identify

The silent potential: A study of coworkers’ voicing in workplace meetings

Much of contemporary organisational life is enacted in meetings. Yet, our understanding of meetings and coworkers’ role in them remains limited and influenced by the dominant functionalist and linear perspectives on communication. Such an approach is, however, problematic as it obscures the constitutive role of coworker’s voicing in meetings and how it produces and reproduces work teams, organisat

A Comprehensive Robustness Analysis of Storj DCS Under Coordinated DDoS Attack

Decentralized Cloud Storage (DCS) is considered to be the future for sustainable data storage within Web 3.0, in which we will move from a single cloud service provider to creating an ecosystem where anybody could be a cloud storage provider. Currently, the cloud storage market is highly dominated by centralized players like Amazon S3, Google Cloud, Box, etc. Decentralized projects like Storj, Fil

On Decentralized Cloud Storage Security and an Efficient Post-Quantum Encryption Scheme

In this thesis, we address three main security problems related to cryptography andcloud storage. To tackle the challenge posed by a quantum computer, we needencryption that is resistant to quantum computers. This category of cryptographyis called post-quantum cryptography. In the first paper, we solve a challengein one of the lattice-based cryptographic protocols called Nth-degree Truncatedpolyno

Seizure freedom but not epilepsy surgery is associated with fewer neuropsychiatric difficulties in patients with tuberous sclerosis

BACKGROUND: Drug-resistant epilepsy (DRE) in selected individuals with the rare tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) may benefit from resective epilepsy surgery. Furthermore, associated neuropsychiatric disorders (TAND) are common in patients with TSC; however, long-term data on how surgery affects neuropsychiatric comorbidities are sparse.MATERIALS AND METHODS: Two retrospective approaches were used
