Begreppen ha?llbarhet och CSR, corporate social responsibility, ses ba?da som ett sa?tt fo?r ett fo?retag att ta socialt ansvar fo?r samha?llet och samtidigt minimera risker fo?r ova?ntade ha?ndelser. Bankernas roll i att bidra till en ha?llbar utveckling a?r betydande pa? grund av sin fo?rmedlande roll i ekonomin. Bankerna har en stor inverkan pa? den ekonomiska utvecklingen i va?rlden.

I the year of 2008 there were more than 60 000 purebred dogs newly registered in theSwedish Kennel Club. In addition there are a lot of mixed breed dogs and in the year of2006 it was estimated that there were over 700 000 dogs in Sweden. In today?s society it isnot unusual that people change their life situation by moving, getting a new job or startinga family. Because of this there is a risk of rehoming for dogs owned by these people.In Sweden dogs are among others rehomed by advertising or by rehoming organisations.

Canine herpes virus 1 (CHV-1) är en vitt utbredd smittsam patogen. Viruset tycks verka enzootiskt i hundpopulationer och ger upphov till en livslång latens hos infekterade djur. CHV-1 kan sedan reaktiveras vid exempelvis stress, som vid dräktighet. Hos vuxna hundar får infektionen ofta ett subkliniskt uttryck, men kan också ge upphov till respiratoriska symtom samt genitala blåsor och ögoninfektioner. Dräktiga tikar kan drabbas av fertilitetsproblem, med mumifikation, resorption, dödfödsel samt abort av foster.

Denna studie a?r en analys av Geronimos sja?lvbiografi samt annan litteratur ro?rande honom och apacheindianerna. Syftet a?r att underso?ka apacheindianens sja?lvbild och klargo?ra eventuell pa?verkan av den amerikanska kulturen efter kolonisationen och krigen. Vidare underso?ks hur da?tidens nybyggare uppfattade Geronimo och apacherna fo?r att fo?rsta? ba?da parters handlande.

I statens tjänst används idag hundar inom polisen, försvaret, Tullverket och kriminalvården. Med hjälp av statliga medel utbildas även ledarhundar. Vi har valt att rikta in oss på polisens, försvarets och Tullverkets hundar. Då vi inte vet så mycket om dessa hundar och inte heller har så mycket information om deras hälsa vill vi med detta arbete bilda oss en uppfattning om ämnet. Om vi ska kunna förstå om hundarnas liv som tjänstehundar är bra för dem eller inte måste vi ha kunskap om deras grundläggande behov.

Pyometra, chronic purulent metritis in metoestrus, is a common disease in intact bitches. About 25% of all bitches in Sweden have contracted the disease before ten years of age. Clinical signs of the disease are varied, and the course may be either slow or acute. The diagnosis is most commonly made by radiographical or ultrasonographical examination of the abdomen in combination with blood biochemical and hematological analyses. The safest and most efficient treatment of pyometra is surgical ovariohysterectomy.There is room for improvement of both diagnostic tools and possible prognostic indicators for pyometra.Mast cells are large leucocytes, with granule that contain inflammatory mediators.

Handledare: Johanna HanssonExaminator: Per ForsbergTitel: Da?rfo?r va?ljer fo?retagare aktiebolag idagBakgrund: Denna uppsats har sin utga?ngspunkt i de fo?ra?ndringar som skett fra?n statens sida vad ga?ller aktiekapital och revisorsplikt. Detta skapade en tanke om vad det a?r som faktiskt pa?verkar fo?retagarnas beslut att va?lja aktiebolag.Syfte: Studiens syfte a?r att beskriva vilka faktorer som a?r viktigast i fo?retagares val av bolagsformen aktiebolag efter de fo?ra?ndringar i lagar och regler som skedde a?r 2010. Detta ska go?ras genom en ja?mfo?relse av svar fra?n respektive respondent fo?r att sedan ta fram de viktigaste kategorierna utifra?n den teori som tagits fram.

Steroid-responsive meningitis-arteritis (SRMA) is a common form of meningitis in dogs. The condition is immunopathological, but the etiology is not yet fully understood. The aim of this study was to compile facts about the disease from records of Swedish dogs. The owners were interviewed by telephone for follow up where it was possible. 15 dogs were included in the study. All of them were neurologically examined in the Small Animal Clinic at the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences.

Bakgrund: En procent av den svenska befolkningen får någon gång i livet diagnosen schizofreni. Sjukdomen kan leda till funktionsnedsättningar som påverkar det dagliga livet. Det kan vara svårt att förstå upplevelsen av att leva med schizofreni. Det finns positiva symtom som rösthallucinationer och vanföreställningar, det finns även negativa symtom som viljelöshet, apati och osocialt beteende. Syfte: Att belysa personers upplevelser av att leva med schizofreni.

Bakgrund/syfte: Sma?rtlindring via PCA-pump a?r en effektiv och sa?ker metod vid postoperativ va?rd. Den syftar till att ge patienten sto?rre mo?jlighet att pa?verka sin sma?rtlindring. Tidigare studier pa?visar att ma?nga patienter upplever sin kunskap om PCA- pumpen som otillra?cklig.

Bakgrund och problem: H?llbarhet och h?llbar utveckling ?r idag ett aktuellt ?mne i samh?llet och d?rmed aktuellt f?r f?retag i deras redovisning. Transportbranschen har en stor negativ p?verkan och av denna anledning ?r det intressant att studera hur f?retag inom branschen redovisar. Vidare visar tidigare forskning p? att f?retag anv?nder Impression management strategier i sin redovisning f?r att gynna sina prestationer vilket minskar transparensen mot intressenter.

In this essay dog as a compatible model were put against human. The major histocompatibility complex (MHC) genes were compared between dogs, human, cat and mouse. To evaluate dog as a model and study similarities and differences was the aim with this review. Dog as a model contributes to understand mechanisms behind autoimmune diseases and showed clearly histological similarities between human and dogs concerning the skin disease mucous membrane pemphigoid (MMP)/cicatricial pemphgioid (CP). Further genetic evidence motivated the choice of using dog as a comprehensive model when the MHC-complex correlated with hypothyroiditis in Doberman dog as it does in human. Physiological similarities with low levels of thyroid hormones (T3 and T4) together with high level of thyroid releasing hormone (TSH) were found in the same way as in human.

In this essay I have studied Aftonbladets portrayal of the Swedish businessman Jan Stenbeck and if the reporting changes before and after his death, and if so, in which ways. With help from a qualitative syntax analysis and a content analysis I studied my material about Stenbeck during the time period 2000-09-19 to 2004-09-19. In my quantitative analysis I studied 140 articles and in my syntax analysis I studied ten articles, five before and five after Stenbecks death. The theoretical perspectives that I applied in my study is Sigurd Allerns theory about tabloid papers novelty criteria and Adam Shehatas theory about Framing. Allerns theory describes what criteria the tabloid papers have on news and Shehatas theory about framing describes the political forces behind the news who wants to set their own agenda.

The aim of the study was to investigate whether the sedation method had an effect on the screening result for hip dysplasia (HD). Another aspect considered was if the dog?s weight had an impact on the results. This study was a follow up on the results from an earlier study of sedation routines in Swedish dogs. The breeds included in this study were the same as in the earlier one; German shepherd, Bernese mountain dog, Boxer, Newfoundland, Rottweiler, Saint Bernard, Golden and Labrador Retriever.

The aim of the study was to examine the retinal ON- and OFF-pathways of the canine electroretinogram (ERG). The ON- and OFF-pathways are used to distinguish objects from their backgrounds. A dark object is discernible from a lighter background using the OFFpathway and the ON-pathway is used to descry a light object upon a darker background. This study shows that the dog ERG has both ON- and OFF-responses and that these responses can be separated by prolonging the flash duration over 50 ms. The dog OFF-response waveform was more similar to the cat OFF-response than the human OFF-response (Frishman, 2006; Zrenner and Gouras, 1979). In this study six female three-year-old Beagle dogs were included. Both background and flash stimuli were provided by LEDs (light emitting diodes) with a wavelength of 470 nm, a wavelength that is absorbed almost as effectively by the canine M/L-cones as by the S-cones. These stimuli gave ERGs with both ON- and OFF-responses.
