The thesis accounts for a comparison between the two different parts of The National Law of King Christopher (1442): the parts taken over from the older national law and the parts rewritten och new written. I also compare with those parts of The Urban Law of King Magnus Eriksson that are independent of the national law. The investigations concern legal case clauses, legal enactment modes, syntacti

The cellular and molecular pathways initiated by traumatic brain injury (TBI) may compromise the function and structural integrity of mitochondria, thereby contributing to cerebral metabolic dysfunction and cell death. The extent to which TBI affects regional mitochondrial populations with respect to structure, function, and swelling was assessed 3 hours and 24 hours after lateral fluid-percussion

A novel molecularly imprinted polymer was prepared by copolymerization of trimethylolpropane trimethacrylate (1) and methacrylic acid (3) in the presence of a dipeptide acting as the template. The recognition capability of the synthetic receptor-like binding sites produced in the polymer network for the peptide was demonstrated by using the polymer as a chiral stationary phase in HPLC. The polymer

We have performed scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM) measurements of thin films of Co and CoPt alloys on Pt(111). In contrast to the interpretation of an earlier low energy electron diffraction investigation by Tsay and Shern [Surf. Sci. 396 (1998) 313] we find that the structure observed upon annealing a Pt(111) sample with a 2 ML (monolayer, ML) thick film of Co does not consist of a rotated C

This article analyses the consequences of using the concept of caregiving as a basis of extending social rights in the welfare state. By focusing on the administration of the right to a care allowance to a parent with a disabled child, the development of the concept of individualized justice and the use of discretion are examined. The article reveals how rights are differentially distributed throu

The Kalpha satellite spectra arising from the correlative multielectron processes accompanying K-shell photoionization of Ca, Ti and V were measured using a broad range crystal spectrometer. Multiconfiguration Dirac-Fock calculations were performed to interpret the observed,x-ray energies and the spectral line shape., The calculations agree fairly well with the experimental results. The variation

BACKGROUND: An early age at menarche, a short menstrual cycle length, and a high age at first full term pregnancy or nulliparity are known risk factors for breast cancer. These risk factors have previously been reported to differ between breast cancer patients with and without a family history of breast cancer and also between breast cancer patients and controls. METHODS: Self-administered questio

In the present study, our objective was to quantify the daily duration of vibration exposure from ultrasonic scaling in dental hygienists and to compare different methods of self-estimates to time-recorded measurements. The exposure time was self-estimated by use of diary and interview methods in 10 subjects. We found that the measured total daily exposure time was limited, only on average 12 min,

Introduction. Limited information is available concerning the general and sexual health status of European men. Aim. To investigate the age-related changes in general and sexual health in middle-aged and older men from different countries of the European Union. Methods. This is a cross-sectional multicenter survey performed on a sample of 3,369 community-dwelling men aged 40-79 years old (mean 60

Den preposition som används för att uttrycka ursprung eller upphov i en konstruktion med verbet ‘få’ i skriftlig norska är prepositionen av. i norska dialekter blir dock även flera andra prepositioner använda för att uttrycka denna relation. Förutom tå, som kan räknas som en variant av av, finner man hos, hjå och med. Den nyligen färdigställda forskningsinfrastrukturen, Nordisk dialektkorpus och N

This thesis presents experimental results on the development and optimization of novel and highly compact sources of beams of fast ions, relativistic electrons and coherent x-rays, driven by intense laser-plasma interactions. The rapid development of high-power, short-pulse laser systems have made available peak powers reaching the petawatt regime and focused intensities reaching 10^21 W/cm2. Whe

Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most common brain tumor in adults. It presents an extremely challenging clinical problem, and treatment very frequently fails due to the infiltrative growth, facilitated by extensive angiogenesis and neovascularization. Pericytes constitute an important part of the GBM microvasculature. The contribution of endogenous brain pericytes to the tumor vasculature in

This paper investigates the decision-making processes of mayors on the municipal level in Brandenburg, Germany, to support 100% renewable energy policies as well as the respective key success factors. Three different cases and their specific settings are examined: (1) Turnow-Preilack with Germany's largest solar power plant, (2) Prenzlau, a town claiming the title 'City of Renewable Energy’ and (3
