Objective To evaluate which factors are the most strongly related to self-perceived health among older men and describe the shape of the association between the related factors and self-perceived health using machine learning.Design and setting This is a cross-sectional study within the population-based VAScular and Chronic Obstructive Lung disease study (VASCOL) conducted in southern Sweden in 20
Reutilizing biomass ashes in agriculture can substitute inputs of P from finite primary sources. However, recycling of ashes is disputed due to their content of toxic substances such as heavy metals. This study evaluates the potential risk of replacing easily soluble inorganic P fertilizer with P in biomass ashes in a barley crop grown on soil with adequate P status. Two contrasting doses of three
Autistic persons often have difficulties with social interaction and communication. Sensory impressions are often processed differently than in neurotypicals. The person may be negatively affected bodily, e.g., being unstable or having reduced body awareness. The body awareness may be observed as an expression in movement quality. However, there is a lack of knowledge about experiences, assessment
Popular Abstract in Swedish Retrovirus är en typ av virus som finns hos både människor och djur. Detta virus sprider sig genom att en virus partikel tar sig in i en cell och sedan integrerar sin virala arvsmassa in i cellens arvmassa, DNA. Retrovirusets arvsmassa är från början RNA men skrivs sedan om till DNA för att kunna integreras. I molekylärbiologins barndom trodde man att det genetiska flödThe human genome contains genetic elements which are more or less similar to infectious retroviruses. These are called human endogenous retroviruses (HERVs) and are thought to be remnants of infections in the primate lineage. Most of them have been inserted 10 to 60 million years ago but have at different time points spread in the genome via intracellular retrotransposition and make up as much as
We present Clog, a declarative language for describing static code checkers for C. Unlike other extensible state-of-the-art checker frameworks, Clog enables powerful interprocedural checkers without exposing the underlying program representation: Clog checkers consist of Datalog-style recursive rules that access the program under analysis via syntactic pattern matching and control flow edges only.
BACKGROUND: Drug-resistant epilepsy (DRE) in selected individuals with the rare tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) may benefit from resective epilepsy surgery. Furthermore, associated neuropsychiatric disorders (TAND) are common in patients with TSC; however, long-term data on how surgery affects neuropsychiatric comorbidities are sparse.MATERIALS AND METHODS: Two retrospective approaches were used
We consider geometric problems on planar n2-point sets in the congested clique model. Initially, each node in the n-clique network holds a batch of n distinct points in the Euclidean plane given by Ο(log n)-bit coordinates. Ineach round, each node can send a distinct Ο(log n)-bit message to each other node in the clique and perform unlimited local computations. We show that the convex hull of the
Responsibility to protect är en princip som presenterades kring millennieskiftet av den internationella kommissionen för interventioner och statssuveränitet. Kommissionen skapades i syfte att utveckla ett sätt att skydda medborgare som utsattes för grova och systematiska brott och då värdstaten inte ville eller kunde stoppa dessa. Utgångspunkten för R2P är att det primära ansvaret ligger på värdstResponsibility to protect is a principle developed in order to try to protect citizens from atrocious and systematic crimes when a host state does not want to or does not have the possibility to do so themselves, and was first mentioned by the International Commission for Intervention and State Sovereignty in 2001. R2P is based on the idea that each individual state has a responsibility to protect
Legalitetsprincipen är av yttersta vikt för tillförsäkrande av enskildas rättssäkerhet, vilken säkerställs genom att den offentliga maktutövningen inte får vara godtycklig eller oförutsebar. Eftersom skatteflyktslagen sedan dess tillkomst kritiserats för att medföra en analog skattelagstillämpning oförenlig med legalitetsprincipen, och den skatterättsliga legalitetsprincipens innebörd och ställninThe principle of legality is of utmost importance to ensure the legal certainty of individuals, which is ensured by preventing that the exercise of public authority is arbitrary or unpredictable. Since the creation of the tax evasion law, the law has been criticized for its analogical application of tax laws and its incompatibility with the principle of legality. Additionally, the meaning and stat
The widespread consequences of climate change are becoming more and more evident around the world and are raising crucial awareness to world leaders that a sustainable transition is direly needed to mitigate against disastrous climatic events. In Australia, in early 2020, these events took the form of some of the most devastating and largest forest fires the country has ever seen. This devastation
The aim of this thesis is to build an understanding of the current instruments and mechanisms governing global supply chains and to identify the governance gaps in the protection of labour rights. In order to fully understand the implications of globalization on labour law, the thesis undertakes a theoretical framework drawing on transnational labour law perspectives and a conceptual analysis of g
Med sexuellt självskadebeteende avses, förenklat sett, ett handlingsmönster vari en person söker sig till destruktiva sexuella förbindelser i syfte att skada sig själv psykiskt och/eller fysiskt. Beteendet är relativt outforskat i Sverige, och kunskap saknas särskilt inom den juridiska disciplinen. Ändå förekommer det personer, vilka kan antas lida av denna typ av självskada, inom både den straffrSex as self-injury could be described as a pattern of seeking destructive sexual connections in order to harm oneself mentally and/or physically. In Sweden, this behaviour is relatively unexplored, especially within the legal system. Nevertheless, people, which could be assumed to suffer from sex as self-injury, are to be found in both penal- and administrative fields of law. In this thesis I fir
BACKGROUND: One of the major environmental threats to human health is air pollution. It contributes to premature deaths of millions of people worldwide. Air quality issues are growing exponentially in developing countries (West et al. 2016). More specifically, household air pollution that results from indoor cooking with solid fuels is damaging to the human health in LMIC. About 54% of global popu
This thesis seeks to develop an understanding of racial stereotyping in the Netherlands, through examining the role of public authorities in the societal debate on the character of Zwarte Piet. It is the portraying of this character that can contribute to negative racial stereotyping. How did the societal debate come to its current form, and what role do public authorities have, or what role shoul
Den legala arvsordningen ska garantera att en bröstarvinge får del av föräldrarnas egendom när de dör. I Sverige ska den del en bröstarvinge är garanterad vara hälften av kvarlåtenskapen delat med antalet bröstarvingar. Denna del kallas laglott. Detta innebär en begränsning av en förälders rätt att testamentera bort egendom. Endast hälften av en förälders egendom kan fritt fördelas utanför den legThe right of inheritance is supposed to ensure that an offspring receives part of the parents' property when they die. In Sweden, the part that an offspring to the deceased is guaranteed is half of the estate divided by the number of siblings. This part is the reserved portion (portio legitima). This means that a parent's right to bequeath property is limited. Only half of a parent's p
Den ökande internetanvändningen och teknikutvecklingen har lett till en förflyttning av traditionella brott till den digitala miljön. Internet möjliggör kommunikation i en annan utsträckning än tidigare och större möjligheter för sexualförbrytare att kontakta barn i syfte att utsätta dessa för sexuella övergrepp. Digital bevisning avseende elektronisk kommunikation blir ett avgörande inslag i samtThe increasing use of internet and the development of technology has led to the transfer of traditional crimes into the digital environment. The internet enables communication to a different extent than before and greater opportunities for sexual offenders to contact children with the aim of exposing them to sexual abuse. Digital evidence is a crucial element in all investigations of such crimes.
Unga lagöverträdare har sedan länge särbehandlats i det svenska påföljdssystemet. Den som begår brott innan 21 års ålder särbehandlas idag både beträffande straffmätningen och påföljdsvalet. Bland annat får den unge lagöverträdaren sitt straff reducerat genom den så kallade straffrabatten. I december 2018 utkom ungdomsreduktionsutredningen med ett förslag om slopad straffrabatt för unga lagöverträYoung offenders have long been treated differently than adult offenders in the Swedish penal system. Anyone who commits crimes before the age of 21 is today treated differently both in terms of the sentencing measure and the choice of penalty. Among other things, the young offenders gets their sentence reduced by the so-called “penalty discount”. In December of 2018 a government department issued
This study aims to summarize some of the climate change related challenges for city centers in Sweden by using the city Helsingborg as an example. The approach is wide and includes three different dimensions: City planning, shopping in city centers and mobility. By doing so the reader will see climate change related challenges from different perspectives which all affect each other. Shopping and m
