We sought to identify risk factors for stroke and to evaluate the effect of stroke on outcomes in surgical ATAAD patients. METHODS: The Nordic Consortium for Acute Type A Ao
Popular Abstract in Swedish Att arbete med barn som brottsoffer – en rättssociologisk studie Barn som utsätt's för brott utgör en grupp i vårt samhälle som i många situationer är beroende av företrädare för att få den hjälp och behandlig som de kan vara i behov av.

Socialtjänstlagen (SoL) utgår från hushållsgemenskap vid prövning av rätten till bistånd. En individ blir beviljad bistånd om denne inte kan försörja sig själv på annat sätt. Ett sådant sätt är bland annat hjälp från anhöriga. Makar och sambor förväntas bidra till varandras försörjning. SoL behandlar ett hushåll som en ekonomisk enhet med gemensamma inkomster. Inkomstskattelagen (IL) utgår från et
Energy for heating and cooling purposes is essential for many industrial processes, as well as something we all rely on to provide us with warm water and a pleasant indoor climate. As much as half of all energy consumed in the EU is used for heating and cooling [1]. District heating and cooling grids are common ways in which the energy is delivered and distributed, and due to the large quantities

Sammanfattning Sverige har upprepade gånger fått kritik av olika FN – organ för att inte följa den internationella folkrätten för de rättigheter som ursprungsbefolkningar har, i Sveriges fall samerna. Kritiken handlar bland annat om samernas bristande inflytande på beslut som angår dem. Gruvnäringen anses vara ett stort problem då gruvnäringens intressen sätts före de samiska rättigheterna samtidiSummary Sweden has repeatedly been criticized by the UN for not following international human rights law for indigenous peoples, in the case of Sweden, the Saami. The criticism include the Saami people's lack of influence on decisions affecting them. The mining industry is considered to be a major problem because of its big impact on the Saami culture and the swedish mineral-law gets critic be
Most flowering plants depend on insect pollinators for their reproduction, yet these pollinators have been facing considerable losses in abundance and diversity in recent decades. The ongoing pollinator declines, caused by stressors including land-use and climate change, have raised concerns for species-rich plant communities such as those found in semi-natural grasslands. These communities contai
This dissertation examines the construction of P&&semicI club letters of undertaking by the English courts, and whether their approach can be criticised based on the legal nature of such contracts, the principles of construction which have been held applicable to them and their commercial purpose. A letter of undertaking serves as alternative security to an arrest and consists of a prom
Denna uppsats handlar om särskilda problem som kan drabba parterna i en domstolsprocess på grund av att de har olika tillgång till relevant information. Det huvudsakliga föremålet för min undersökning har varit exempel på avtal som används för att komma tillrätta med ett ojämlikt informationsläge innan en process faktiskt inleds. För att ge en bakgrund till de avtalen börjar jag dock med att gå igThis essay deals with specific problems that can affect the parties in court proceedings because they have different degrees of access to relevant information. The main purpose of my investigation was to find examples of contracts used to adress unequalities in the parties’ abilities as it comes to pre-trial information collectio. I begin, however, with a rough sketch of the main features of the r

The Court of Justice's ability to enforce a satisfactory system of human rights protection for the European Union has been questioned over the years and still is today.

Stabiliteten på finansmarknaden har visat sig vara en viktig fråga för Kommissionen och en integrerad del av EU: s konkurrenspolitik. Den globala finanskrisen, med ursprung i USA, har påverkat de flesta av EU:s medlemsstater och framförallt skadat banker. Ett minskat förtroende för de finansiella marknaderna ledde till att utlåningen mellan banker totalt uteblev. Detta ledde i sin tur till en kredThe stability of the financial market has proven to be an important issue for the European Commission and an integral part of European competition policy. The global financial crisis, originating from the U.S., has affected most of the European Union’s Member States. A loss of confidence in the financial markets led to a freeze in interbank lending and an unprecedented credit crunch. As a response
Det är viktigt att undvika förseningar i ett rättssystem för att upprätthålla rättssäkerheten. Långa handläggningstider utsätter de berörda individerna för stress och osäkerhet, vilket kan riskera både effektiviteten och trovärdigheten av rättssystemet. Europakonventionen, som också är Svensk lag, innehåller bestämmelser om en rättvis rättegång inom skälig tid. Frågan är dock om Sverige lever up tIn a judicial system it is very important to administer justice without delay to uphold the rule of law. Lengthy proceedings subject the concerned individuals to stress and uncertainty, and might jeopardize the effectiveness and credibility of justice. The European Convention on human rights, which is incorporated in Swedish law, provides a right to a fair trial within reasonable time, but is Swed

PURPOSE: Acquired chemoresistance is a frequent event in small cell lung cancer (SCLC), one of the deadliest human malignancies. Histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACi) have been shown to synergize with different chemotherapeutic agents including cisplatin. Accordingly, we aimed to investigate the dual targeting of HDAC inhibition and chemotherapy in SCLC.EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: The efficacy of HDACi
