Urban women applying for induced abortion. Studies of epidemiology, attitudes and emotional reactions

Popular Abstract in Swedish Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning på svenska Abort är ett av de vanligaste kriurgiska ingreppen i Sverige. 1989 var aborttalet för hela landet 21.5 per 1000 kvinnor i åldern 15-24 år. Storstäderna Stockholm, Göteborg och Malmö har i många år haft det högsta aborttalen, vilka var för dessa 1989 28.4, 27.0 respektive 27.8. De aktuella studierna omfattar de 1466 kvinnorIn Sweden between 32-38,000 women annually elect to terminate pregnancy by means of induced abortion, though their reasons are still not well understood. The purpose of these studies, carried out at the Department of Obstetrics and gynecology and of Community Medicine at University Hospital, Malmö, was to elucidate the incidence of induced abortion in an urban population, with special emphasis on

The miracle of generative violence. René Girard and the use of force in International law

In this article, I apply René Girard's theory of generative violence to the international law relating to the use of force. I argue that texts of international law make gestures of referral towards an immanent normativity on the fettering of divine violence. The means to this end is a form of sacrificial violence that seeks to promote the preservation and cohesion of the ‘international community’.

Convex optimization for optimal realization of material properties

We show how the best passive approximation to a given target material or structure can be found by convex optimization. The approach is based on a representation of positive real functions, where some of the parameters can be given physical relevance by comparison to low- and high-frequency asymptotics of the material or structure under study. A number of different optimization problems can be for

Reconfigurable cell array as enabler for supporting concurrent multiple standards in mobile terminals

This manuscript presents an reconfigurable architecture, suitable to process time synchronization for multiple OFDM standards. The proposed architecture is based on a coarse-grained reconfigurable cell array, and the different radio standards under analysis are IEEE 802.11n, 3GPP Long Term Evolution and Digital Video Broadcast for cellular devices. With the use of a 2-by-2 cell array, composed of

Basal Vertebrate Divergences from a Molecular Perspective

Popular Abstract in Swedish Visst har väl vi väl alla någon gång funderat på vårt ursprung. Hur såg vi ut innan vi blev människor? Såg mina förfäder ut som jag eller var de håriga över hela kroppen? Är vi kanske kusiner med schimpanserna eller är våra närmaste ap-släktingar små silkesapor? Visst är detta intressanta frågor, men har du någonsin funderat på hur våra förfäder såg ut för ännu längre sFishes (Superclass Pisces) constitute the most numerous and morphologically diverse vertebrate group, yet only a small fraction of all molecular evolutionary studies concern piscine evolution. This thesis aims to investigate the vertebrate tree, through the analysis of mitochondrial (mt) DNA sequences. To this end the coding regions of the mt genome of a jawless fish, the hagfish (Myxine glutinosa

A Framework for Sustainable Strategic Energy Company Investment Analysis and Decision-support: Towards the Operationalisation of Sustainable Energy Systems

In addition to being a key criterion of the sustainable development proviso, for business, the integration of social- and ecological considerations into decision-making is of growing importance for minimising future environmentally-related risk and associated economic costs, as well as gaining a share in growing markets favouring products and companies focusing upon social responsibility and ecolo

Cell and Particle Trapping in Microfluidic Systems Using Ultrasonic Standing Waves

Analysis methods are currently being miniaturized in order to save time and money while achieving higher sensitivities. The ultimate goal is to create a lab-on-a-chip where all analysis steps and instruments can be automated and integrated into a single chip. In order to perform cellassays and microparticle based bioassays on chip, methods to manipulate particles and cells in microsystems are desi

Religion and Conflict : Essays on the Origins of Religious Conflicts and Resulotion Approaches

This manual introduces a theoretical and practical framework among theologians, as well as other professionals. It proposes a historical and sociological, as well as a political and gender approach to the three monotheistic religions based on conflicts provocation and their transgression. Furthermore it aims to identify and map the European theological adn religious curricula which promote the ana
