Abstract The aim of this three-year research project is to investigate displacements, i.e. changes in the right to housing and food according to the Swedish Social Service Act between 1982-2018, and its implications for the broader issue of social rights in the welfare state. This is done through the notion of advanced legal practices, which refer to incidents where the dominant current law is con
Background Syndesmotic injuries of the ankle without fractures can result from external rotation, abduction and dorsiflexion injuries. Kinematic studies of these trauma mechanisms have not been performed. We attempted to describe the kinematics of the tibiofibular joint in cadaveric specimens using radiostereometry after sequential ligament sectioning, and resulting from different trauma mechanism
BackgroundResting pulse is robustly and inversely associated with the risk for externalizing disorders and may be positively associated with internalizing disorders. We know little about the causal nature of these associations.MethodsWe examined resting pulse at conscription examination in 369 301 males born 1960-80 with a mean (s.d.) follow-up of 29.1 (7.7) years. From pulse rates, we predicted,
Almost all countries in the world are party to the Rio Conventions. This entails a number of responsibilities, including reporting periodically on aspects of environmental health and national implementation of the convention. These reports can cover hundreds of pages, so completing reports is often a significant undertaking. Since countries can be party to numerous Multilateral Environmental Agree
Weakly-coupled TeV-scale particles may mediate the interactions between normal matter and dark matter. If so, the LHC would produce dark matter through these mediators, leading to the familiar “mono-X” search signatures, but the mediators would also produce signals without missing momentum via the same vertices involved in their production. This document from the LHC Dark Matter Working Group sugg
In a community effort to combat sample mislabeling in multi-omic studies, computational solutions received show a wide range of accuracy. The final collaborative product, COSMO, achieves high performance. Applying COSMO to published datasets demonstrates biological impact of the tool.Sample mislabeling or misannotation has been a long-standing problem in scientific research, particularly prevalent in large-scale, multi-omic studies due to the complexity of multi-omic workflows. There exists an urgent need for implementing quality controls to automatically screen for and correct sample mislabels or misannotations in multi-omic studies. Here, we describe a crowdsourced precision
Mafic dykes and dyke swarms in continental settings provide information on the evolution of the subcontinental mantle and can be key elements in the reconstruction of paleo-geographic settings of now separated crustal terranes. This study focuses on the petrogenesis and geochronology of mafic dykes of the WNW (~125°) trending Bhanupratappur swarm in the central Bastar Craton, central India. Dykes
We introduce and provide a new data-set of species-specific ecological indicator values (alternative ‘Ellenberg values’ for climatic variables, light, moisture, soil reaction/pH, salinity, nitrogen and phosphorus plus response to management and disturbance), physiological and reproductive traits (including symbionts, phenology, pol- linators, nectar production, seed properties), indices of relevanWe introduce and provide a new data-set of species-specific ecological indicator values (alternative ‘Ellenberg values’ for climatic variables, light, moisture, soil reaction/pH, salinity, nitrogen and phosphorus plus response to management and disturbance), physiological and reproductive traits (including symbionts, phenology, pol- linators, nectar production, seed properties), indices of relevan
Purpose: To evaluate the association between a previously published 313 variant–based breast cancer (BC) polygenic risk score (PRS313) and contralateral breast cancer (CBC) risk, in BRCA1 and BRCA2 pathogenic variant heterozygotes. Methods: We included women of European ancestry with a prevalent first primary invasive BC (BRCA1 = 6,591 with 1,402 prevalent CBC cases; BRCA2 = 4,208 with 647 prevale
A search for new charged massive gauge bosons, W′, is performed with the ATLAS detector at the LHC. Data were collected in proton–proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of s=13 TeV and correspond to an integrated luminosity of 36.1 fb−1. This analysis searches for W′ bosons in the W′→tb¯ decay channel in final states with an electron or muon plus jets. The search covers resonance masses betw
BACKGROUND: Hyperthyroidism is known to have a significant impact on quality of life (QoL), at least in the short term. The purpose of the present study was to assess QoL in patients 6-10 years after treatment for Graves' disease (GD) with radioiodine (RAI) compared to those treated with thyroidectomy or antithyroid drugs (ATD) as assessed with both thyroid-specific Thyroid-Related Patient-Reporte
A search for new phenomena in final states containing an e+e- or μ+μ- pair, jets, and large missing transverse momentum is presented. This analysis makes use of proton–proton collision data with an integrated luminosity of 36.1fb-1, collected during 2015 and 2016 at a centre-of-mass energy s=13TeV with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. The search targets the pair production of super
A search for exotic decays of the Higgs boson into a pair of spin-zero particles, H → aa, where the a-boson decay sin to b-quarks promptly or with a mean proper lifetime cτa up to 6 mm and has a mass in the range of 20–60 GeV, is presented. The search is performed in events where the Higgs boson is produced in association with a W or Z boson, giving rise to a signature of one or two charged lepton
Following the adoption of the "double carbon" policy in China, the concept of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) has gained considerable attention within the Chinese market, significantly impacting investor decision-making. This thesis examines the impacts of ESG principles on the overall financial performance of investment portfolios. Through the classification of Chinese A-lis
I juli 2014 föreslog Europakommissionen ett cirkulärt ekonomipaket som skulle bidra till att göra EU mer resurseffektivt genom att recirkulera resurser in i det ekonomiska systemet. En cirkulär ekonomi syftar till att tillvarata värdefulla naturresurser samtidigt som man motverkar behovet av att extrahera nya. Det föreslagna paketet innehöll bland annat ändringar i avfallsdirektiven, höjda återvinIn order to become more resource efficient and circulate resources back into the economic system, the European Commission adapted a circular economy package in 2014. This is in line with the idea of a circular economy. This study investigates how the legislative proposal to review recycling and other waste-related targets in the EU, which was a part of the proposed circular economy package, would
Genom sitt beslut i målet Centros, öppnade EU-domstolen för en bred användning av etableringsfriheten för juridiska personer. I huvudsak konstaterar domen att det finns situationer där etableringsfriheten kan åberopas för att kringgå nationell lagstiftning. Sådana kringgående transaktioner kan betecknas som regelarbitrage Det ska förstås som åtgärder varigenom ekonomiska aktörer försöker dra nyttThrough its decision in Centros, ECJ opened up for a wide use of the freedom of establishment for legal persons. In substance the ruling concluded that there are situations were the freedom of establishment can be relied upon in order to circumvent national legislation. Such circimventional transactions can be denominated as regulatory arbitrage. It is to be understood as the actions by which eco
Geokronologi och paleomagnetiska studier är de viktigaste verktygen för paleogeografiska rekonstruktioner kring hur kontinenter fårhållit sig relativt till varandra under geologisk tid. Genom att jämföra s.k. polvandringskurvor och tidpunkter för storskaliga magmatiska händelser mellan olika krustala block (kontienter/kratoner) kan vi få en bättre förståelse av hur dessa block förhöll sig relativtRobust geochronology and well-constrained paleopoles are the main tools for paleogeographic reconstructions. Through the completion of so called barcode diagrams (matching of coeval events of mafic magmatism between blocks) and determination of the apparent polar wander paths, these studies provide a better understanding of the position of continents and supercontinents in the past. The robust U–P
