ABSTRACT This dissertation focuses on Sweden’s involvement in applying EU anti-dumping measures within the framework of its WTO commitments. Laying emphasis on the dilemma of liberal trade policy evident in Sweden on one hand and safeguarding its Indigenous industries from unfair competition on the other hand, this research seeks to unravel how this country fulfills its obligations to the EU and t

In the northwest of Skåne, a peninsula stretches out and tapers off out into the ocean. This is Kullahalvön, a stronghold of contrasts that swings between the dramatic and romantic. Its edge rises from the sea like armor: shaped by weather and protective of all the landscape that rests behind it. Forests, meadows,fields and beaches overlap between the old fishing villages that have grown into town

Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterised by motor and non-motor symptoms, including significant speech impairments. Early and accurate diagnosis is crucial for effective management and treatment. However, traditional diagnostic methods are often limited because they rely on subjective assessments and only detect symptoms after they have become noticeable.

This thesis explores the intersection of vernacular knowledge, modern technology and community engaging design to address the challenges posed by flooding and rising water levels in vulnerable areas. Initiated as a conceptual project for a flood resilient neighbourhood, the project evolved into a direct response to the specific needs of the DRCNAI community in Coloong, Valenzuela, Philippines. Thr

The NMDA receptors are natural glutamate binders that play critical roles in the function of the central nervous system, with their dysfunction implicated in serious psychiatric disorders and neurodegenerative conditions. Understanding their roles in the brain and developing treatments will benefit from the existence of small molecules specifically targeting different NMDA receptor subtypes. This

Pesticides or plant protection products (PPP) protect plants from harmful organisms and prevent the spread of invasive species. However, their use is not without problems, as pesticides can have harmful effects on the environment. One of these effects is reduced biodiversity, as pesticides often affect non-target organisms and change water and soil composition. Reduced diversity through the cleari

Bakgrund: HLR innebär att hjärtkompressioner och inblåsningar ska göras i händelse av ett plötsligt hjärtstopp. En legitimerad läkare får, i samråd med annan legitimerad personal, fatta beslut om att avstå HLR. Att genomföra utsiktslös HLR vid svår kronisk sjukdom, eller vid livets slut, kan leda till förlängt lidande och förlust av värdighet för patienten. Att genomföra utsiktslös HLR kan även le

This study examines how The New York Times and The Guardian framed the Mahsa Amini protests in Iran from September 2022 to September 2023. Using qualitative content analysis of 186 news articles, guided by framing theory and the protest paradigm, the study explores dominant frames, predominant themes, narratives, and depictions of protest legality and state responses. A mixed inductive-deductive c

Research of the recent years indicated that the heavy alkaline earth metals may possess a bonding behaviour similar to transition metals, where they are able to involve their d-orbitals in bonding. The exact nature of such bonds is still elusive and a point of discussion amongst researchers. To further study this, low- or zero-valent complexes of those metals are needed. The objective of this proj

Undersökning av lokalanvändning i fastigheter för undervisning Resurseffektivisering har sällan varit mer viktigt än det är idag och bygg- och fastighetsbranschen behöver göra omfattande förändringar för att anpassa sig till framtidens hållbara samhälle. För att göra detta krävs en mycket god förståelse av de behov av byggnader som faktiskt finns och hur dessa ska nyttjas, utan att förbruka ellerThis research aims to investigate the usage, problems and solutions within management of real estate used for higher education. The study is based on a case study, consisting of interviews, surveys and data analysis of specific buildings. The goal is to create an example of how a framework for exploring the usage and occupancy rates within these types of facilities can be executed. Furthermore, th

Bakgrund: Kvalificerad personal är av yttersta vikt ur ett samhällsperspektiv för att kunna erbjuda invånarna högkvalitativ vård och främjar hälsa. Handledningen till nyanställda sjuksköterskor kan ibland bli bristfällig och i värsta fall utebli vilket leder till att patientsäkerheten hotas, då nyanställda sjuksköterskor blir otrygga i sin yrkesroll. Forskning finns inom handledning och handledareBackground: Qualified personnel are of utmost importance from a societal perspective to provide residents with high-quality care and promote health. The mentoring of newly employed nurses can sometimes be inadequate and, in the worst case, absent, which threatens patient safety as new nurses become insecure in their professional roles. Research exists on mentoring and the role of the mentor, as we

Sepsis är ett livshotande tillstånd som är ett globalt problem där dödligheten är hög. Mer än 50 miljoner människor drabbas världen över, av dessa dör cirka 10 miljoner. Sepsis kan drabba människor i alla åldrar, sjukdomstillstånd samt livssituationer. Tid och behandling är ytterst viktig vid detta tillstånd då risken av att erhålla komplikationer eller död kan ske på endast några timmar. Patient

Companies face the strategic challenge of expanding into adjacent markets or areas. This often requires a choice between building internally, acquiring through purchases, or forming partnerships to address the opportunity. While extensive literature exists on each of these options individually, there is limited research on the decision-making process that evaluates all these alternatives collectiv

Bakgrund: Äldres population ökar globalt och behovet av akutsjukvård är större hos den äldre befolkningen än populationen i övrigt. Våld mot äldre kan vara svårt att upptäcka och kan leda till stora konsekvenser för den äldre. Akutsjukvården har en betydelsefull roll i att identifiera äldre våldsutsatta personer. Syfte: Beskrivning av hur våld i nära relation mot äldre kan identifieras inom akutsj

Postnatal depression is a highly prevalent problem, with widespread negative consequences for mother and infant. To understand whether Infant Carrying might be able to protect from or mitigate postnatal depression onset, this online study was conducted using a German and American sample of mothers in the first 6 months postpartum (N = 217). The aim was to gather further knowledge on the relationsh

With the sustainable potential of the city as a starting point, this thesis examines brownfield redevelopment in an existing urban context. The Nørrebro neighborhood of Copenhagen serves as a case. The focus is on learning from and reinterpreting existing urban structure, hierarchy, density and scale. Legislation allowing car free development at the chosen site, Vingelodden, also prompts explorati

The needs and wishes of older people have often been forgotten in urban planning in recent decades. Yet already today, more than one billion of the world‘s population is over 60 years old, and according to the World Health Organisation (WHO), one in six people will be over 60 by 2030 - an increase to 1.4 billion by 2030 and up to 2.1 billion by 2050 (WHO, 2024). Like many European countries, Switz

Akutsjukvården präglas av hög belastning, högt arbetstempo och tidskritiska omhändertagande i stressfyllda och oförutsägbara miljöer. Kontinuerliga utmaningar har inneburit påfrestning hos sjuksköterskor, både fysiskt och psykiskt. Litteraturstudien utformades för att fördjupa förståelsen kring arbetsrelaterad stress och vilka faktorer i miljön som kan påverka. Syfte: Syftet var att beskriva sThis masters dissertation describes occupational stress amongst nurses who work in the Emergency Care Unit. Occupational stress's effect on nurses health, wellbeing and their performance at work. The dissertation is executed in the form of a litterature review of original scientific articles published in English language. The litteratures that were reviewed describes nurses experience and feel
