The purpose of this thesis is to evaluate the compatibility of the current dominant approach in international taxation for intragroup transactions, based on arm’s length principle, with international agreements on development. In this sense, the thesis aims to explore the viability of formulary apportionment as an alternative that could reduce contradictions between international tax law and devel

Article 31 remains a vital provision of the 1951 Convention as much as an uneasy compromise. It is a rather complex provision affecting a much broader range of issues than the criminalization of immigration infractions and detention. Due to the difference between contemporary migratory realities and those of the drafting period, it is not straightforwardly applied. Resort to the travaux préparatoi

Embedded systems are becoming increasingly networked and are deployed in application areas that require close interaction with their physical environment. Examples include distributed mobile agents and wireless sensor/actuator networks. The complexity of these applications make co-simulation a necessary tool during system development. This paper presents a simulation environment that facilitates s

Popular Abstract in Swedish Cancer är ett samlingsnamn för en grupp av sjukdomar som karakteriseras av att cellerna delar sig okontrollerat, till skillnad mot kroppens friska celler. Det leder till att en tumör kan bildas och cellerna kan därifrån sprida sig till andra delar av kroppen och ge upphov till dottertumörer, även kallade metastaser. I Sverige uppskattar man att cirka var tredje person kSmall cell lung carcinoma (SCLC) is a very aggressive solid tumor and is often widely metastasized by the time of diagnosis. Despite good response to the initial chemotherapy, SCLC cells often develop multidrug resistance to conventionally used chemotherapeutic drugs, which cause almost all SCLC tumors to relapse. The 5-year survival rate for patients with limited disease is around 20% while it is

Malignant brain tumors present a major therapeutic challenge because no selective or efficient treatment is available. Here, we demonstrate that intratumoral administration of human α-lactalbumin made lethal to tumor cells (HAMLET) prolongs survival in a human glioblastoma (GBM) xenograft model, by selective induction of tumor cell apoptosis. HAMLET is a protein-lipid complex that is formed from α

Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingen består av tre delar. Den första, Från utbildningsmarknad till of-fentlig utbildning. Svensk flickskola 1874-1962, behandlar dels integrationen av flickornas sekundärutbildning i den offentliga utbildningsorganisationen, dels förstärkningen respektive försvagningen av denna speciellt genuskodade utbild-ning. Sekundärutbildningen har varit könssegregerad och The thesis is divided into three sections. The first, “From an education market to public education. The Swedish girls’ school 1874-1962”, deals with the integration of girls’ secondary education into the public education system, as well as with the strengthening and weakening of this special, gender-coded education. Secondary education was gender segregated and integration involved a process of s

Background: Caldicellulosiruptor saccharolyticus is an attractive hydrogen producer suitable for growth on various lignocellulosic substrates. The aim of this study was to quantify uptake of pentose and hexose monosaccharides in anindustrial substrate and to present a kinetic growth model of C. saccharolyticus that includes sugar uptake on defined and industrial media. The model is based on Monod

Arsenic is an established carcinogen and a risk factor for several non-malignant diseases. Mechanisms of arsenic toxicity may include interference with gene expression. The impact of arsenic exposure on gene expression was evaluated in women (n = 80) living in the Puna of the northern Argentinian Andes with varying concentrations (10–1251 μg/L) of arsenic in drinking water.

Viral triggers at the intestinal mucosa can have multiple global effects on intestinal integrity, causing elevated intestinal barrier strength and relative protection from subsequent inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) induction in various models. As viruses can interfere with the intestinal immune system both directly and indirectly through commensal bacteria, cause-effect relationships are difficul

To study the influence of acidosis on free radical formation and lipid peroxidation in brain tissues, homogenates fortified with ferrous ions and, in some experiments, with ascorbic acid were equilibrated with 5–15% O2 at pH values of 7.0, 6.5, 6.0, and 5.0, with subsequent measurements of thiobarbituric acid-reactive (TBAR) material, as well as of water- and lipid-soluble antioxidants (glutathion

The deliberation that precedes or runs alongside the remaking of cities, buildings and landscapes seem almost by default to generate situations with unsatisfied stakehold-ers, neglected citizen groups or completely ignored voices. What does it mean to find, listen and respond to those concerned by alteration of built environments? Here, in this paper, citizen participation, its ideological and pol

The purpose of this chapter is to discuss the legal issues relating to cruise ship passenger contracts, their nature and salient features, parties to the contract and their rights and obligations. Claims arising out of passenger carriage subject to applicable law and contracts containing standard terms and conditions are addressed. It is rare for passengers to examine the terms and conditions of t

To investigate the consumption of alcohol among emergency room patients, we included 395 patients above 18 years old entering the emergency room during a period of ten days. The patients completed a questionnaire about alcohol consumption, smoking habits and medication. In our investigation 56% of the men and 25% of the women had a daily consumption above the limits recommended by the Ministry of

This chapter summarizes my doctoral thesis about Universal Design (UD) in Sweden, contributing knowledge about the understanding, implementation, and co-creation of UD. The implementation of the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities in Sweden made UD a guiding principle, necessitating research about the practical side of UD. Using qualitative research methods, interviews and gro
