The Marieberg porcelain factory, situated on the island of Kungsholmen in Stockholm, existed between 1758 and 1788. The aim of this study has been to investigate the manufacture of tiled stoves at Marieberg. The first question I wanted to answer was: how many were actually produced? The few documents from the period that have survived show that Marieberg must have had continuous production of tile
We report on the event structure and double helicity asymmetry (A(LL)) of jet production in longitudinally polarized p + p collisions at root s = 200 GeV. Photons and charged particles were measured by the PHENIX experiment at midrapidity vertical bar eta vertical bar < 0.35 with the requirement of a high-momentum (> 2 GeV/c) photon in the event. Event structure, such as multiplicity, p(T) density
Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingen utgångspunkt tas från den senmesolitiska boplatsen vid Motala ström, Motala stad, Östergötland, Sverige. Problematiken som diskuteras i texten utgår från frågeställningarna vad som formade de materiella uttrycken under en 500-årig tidsperiod, 5500-5000 f.Kr, dokumenterade genom arkeologiska undersökningar. Texten i avhandlingen är i analysen strukturerad i This dissertation focuses on the Strandvägen site located in the town of Motala, Östergötland, Sweden. The problem concerns what shaped the material expressions on the site during 5500?5000 B.C. For reasons of text structure the space outside the settlement site (the home) is divided into the world, the district, and the neighbourhood. These spatial concepts are finally brought together in the syn
The study of pragmatic markers attracts many scholars within the field of pragmatics, in particular in the area of radical pragmatics. Pragmatic markers are often perceived by speakers as having vague meanings that are hard to pin down in words. A pragmatic marker marker also often seem to contribute in different ways to the explicit or implicit message that the speaker wants to convey depending o
AIMS/HYPOTHESIS: Impaired glucose tolerance and impaired insulin secretion have been reported in families with PAX6 mutations and it is suggested that they result from defective proinsulin processing due to lack of prohormone convertase 1/3, encoded by PCSK1. We investigated whether a common PAX6 variant would mimic these findings and explored in detail its effect on islet function in man. METHODS
PURPOSE: To in a cross-sectional study population investigate concentrations of cartilage and bone markers, and pro-inflammatory cytokines in synovial fluid (SF) collected at different time-points from acutely injured knees with hemarthrosis and to compare these with SF concentrations of knees of age and gender-matched healthy reference subjects. METHODS: SF was aspirated from the acutely inju
The Second String Quartet by Arnold Schoenberg, written in 1907 and 1908, is breaking musical traditions at least twice – (1) by leaving tonality, (2) by breaking the genre of string quartet, adding a voice who is interpreting two poems by the German symbolist Stefan George in its third and forth movements. In this paper, I want to raise the question about the reasons why Schoenberg might have add
Background and Objectives: Animal studies have suggested a link between benzodiazepine and related Z-drug (BZDR) use and immune dysfunction. Corresponding evidence in humans is limited and focuses mainly on pneumonia. This study aimed to assess the association of incident BZDR use with subsequent development of serious infections. Methods: This Swedish register-based study included a population-ba
‘Screen time’ has become both a discursive and conceptual construction which has been at the centre of debates and discussions during, most prominently, the last decade, not least amongst parents. The concept evokes questions of control, perceived harmful effects and restrictions. Large global health players like the World Health Organisation have even articulated recommendations on screen time, a
BACKGROUND: Sustained intrauterine hypoxia causes some four million perinatal deaths annually worldwide. The condition is predicated by neonatal acidemia, as determined by pH in umbilical cord blood at birth. We aimed to evaluate the association between umbilical cord arterial pH and long-term outcomes up to 20 years of follow-up.STUDY DESIGN: Using a retrospective cohort design, umbilical cord ar
Background: Prostate cancer therapy with surgical or chemical castration with gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonists has been linked to elevated follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) levels, which may contribute to secondary health disorders, including atherosclerosis and diabetes. Although recent findings suggest a role for FSH beyond the reproductive system, its metabolic impact remains unc
BackgroundThe optimal ways of using aromatase inhibitors or tamoxifen as endocrine treatment for early breast cancer remains uncertain.MethodsWe undertook meta-analyses of individual data on 31 920 postmenopausal women with oestrogen-receptor-positive early breast cancer in the randomised trials of 5 years of aromatase inhibitor versus 5 years of tamoxifen; of 5 years of aromatase inhibitor versus

Dödsstraffet är ett straff som har diskuterats i hundratals år. Jag är själv fascinerad av de argument som har använts, och fortfarande används, för och emot bibehållandet av strafftypen. Genom att studera förarbeten och doktrin har jag försökt utreda hur och varför Sverige avskaffade dödsstraffet. Jag har också jämfört den svenska processen med den som pågick vid ungefär samma tid i Danmark. BådaThe death penalty has been debated for hundreds of years. I am personally fascinated by the arguments used for keeping and removing the penalty from the legislation. I have by studying the legislative history and doctrine tried to research how and why Sweden abolished the death penalty. I also compared the results with the same process in Denmark. Both countries chose to abolish the death penalty
Ingen rättsordning tillskriver alla sorters löften bindande verkan. Det här arbetet syftar till att kritiskt granska och jämföra hur man har valt att avgränsa bindande löften från oförbindande löften i svensk respektive amerikansk avtalsrätt. Ett anbud är enligt svensk rätt en bindande viljeförklaring. Utgångspunkten är att en viljeförklaring är bindande om avsändaren hade för avsikt att juridiskNo legal system enforces all sorts of promises. The objective of his essay is to analyse and compare the general basis for enforcing promises in Swedish and American contract law. In Swedish contract law, an offer is a manifestation of intent to be legally bound by the offer. However, contract law is concerned only with what intent was objectively manifested, which may not necessarily correspond w
My main purpose in this master thesis is to investigate what it meant to be a nun in Vadstena abbey in the beginning of the 16th-century according to the confessor general Nicolaus Ragvaldi. The main question of this thesis is: What should the ideal nun be like according to the sermons of the confessor general Nicolaus Ragvaldi performed in Vadstena abbey 1501 – 1506? While other legislative texts
Space structures are a leaf taken from Nature. Natural forms possess exceptional rigidity and use minimum materials to maximum structural advantage. To quote Makowski, "Natural forms act in the direction of minimum effort". Man has not been slow in copying these examples drawn from Nature. The main structural aim which drives the use of this construction system is to use the least materi
The purpose of my thesis is to examine if the financial crisis 2008-2009 effects economic gender equality in Sweden during (2008-2009) and after (2010-2015) the crisis and if so, how. The purpose is also to analyse if the outcomes are consistent with Gary S. Becker´s theoretical framework the taste discrimination model and the division of labour model. I define economic gender equality by using th
Trafikbrottslagens 5 § ålägger alla trafikanter, som är inblandade i en trafikolycka, att stanna kvar på platsen för olyckan och lämna upplysningar om händelsen. Uppsatsen undersöker om denna upplysningsplikt kan strida mot Europakonventionens sjätte artikel och skyddet mot självinkriminering, som innebär att en misstänkt person aldrig ska behöva bidra till utredningen om sin egen brottslighet. EuSection 5 of the Swedish Traffic Crimes Act, requires all persons involved in a traffic accident to remain at the scene of the accident and provide information about the incident. This essay examines whether the obligation to disclose certain information about the incident, may violate the sixth article of the European Convention on human rights and the protection against self-incrimination. Accor
This master thesis examines positions to long-term preservation of digital games in Sweden. Digital games are a new artform and type of cultural heritage but few actions have been taken to preserve them in an institutional context. If nothing is done now digital games risk disappearing very soon. The majority of long-term preservation of digital games has been performed by individual or groups
