En affärsrelation mellan två kommersiella parter regleras ofta i flera, mer eller mindre sammanhängande avtal. Det kan då hända att bara ett av avtalen har försetts med en skiljeklausul medan övriga avtal saknar skiljeklausuler (eller innehåller oliklydande skiljeklausuler). Om det i framtiden skulle uppstå en tvist som inte grundas direkt på avtalet med skiljeklausul utan istället på något av de A business relationship between two commercial parties often consists of multiple contracts that are more or less connected to each other. In such a multi-contract context, it is possible that only one contract includes an arbitration clause while the other contracts lack arbitration clauses (or contain different arbitration clauses). If, in the future, a dispute arises which is not based directly

Hypothyroidism is a common disease involving diverse physical, cognitive, and emotional symptoms impacting many aspects of functioning. The indicated treatment produces significant improvements but leaves many with residual symptoms that significantly impair functioning. Numerous patient surveys reveal high levels of dissatisfaction with the treatment and healthcare professionals. Less well unders

The thesis will in this matter clarify the child’s prospect to exercise his or her right within this judicial process. Furthermore, the dissertation is written through a children’s rights pe

Disruption of the homeostatic balance of intestinal dendritic cells (DCs) and macrophages (MQs) may contribute to inflammatory bowel disease. We characterized DC and MQ populations, including their ability to produce retinoic acid, in clinical material encompassing Crohn's ileitis, Crohn's colitis and ulcerative colitis (UC) as well as mesenteric lymph nodes (MLNs) draining these sites. Increased

Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingen är en sammanläggningsavhandling, bestående av fem artiklar, kring hur finansiella behov hanteras i nya och små företag. Den empiriska datan har insamlats genom två enkätstudier och en fallstudie. Det viktigaste bidraget i avhandlingen består i utvecklingen av begrepp som gör det möjligt att förstå s.k. finansiell bootstrapping i nya och små företag. Med finThe overall aim of this composite thesis, consisting of five articles, is to develop concepts for furthering the understanding of small business managers´ handling of finance. The main contribution is the development of a conceptual understanding of so-called financial bootstrapping behavior in small businesses (referring to the use of methods for minimizing and/or eliminating the need for financi

The construction of a magnetron-based source for neutral metal vapors is presented. The first photoelectron spectroscopy experiments with the source using synchrotron radiation at MAX-lab, Sweden are described. Photoelectron spectra of atomic copper, silver, and nickel are reported with an 80 meV resolution for Cu and Ag, previously not achieved in experiments using synchrotron light. (c) 2006 Ame

The purpose of the study was to investigate whether baseline quality of life (QoL) and changes in QoL scores from baseline are prognostic for time to progression (TTP) and/or overall survival (OS) in patients with advanced breast cancer receiving docetaxel (T) or sequential methotrexate and 5-fluorouracil (MF). QoL was assessed at baseline and before each treatment using the European Organization

In the spectrum of an emission-line region ejected from the massive star Eta Carinae, called the strontium filament (SrF), forbidden lines from many elements, in particular [Sr II] and [Ti II], are observed. These lines are strong in this specific region and valuable for plasma diagnostics. Forbidden lines are not easily produced in laboratory light sources and the atomic parameters for these line

Försöken med förångning från vätskespill av aceton, dietyleter, etanol och metyletylketon och fördelning av brännbara ångor i dragskåp utförda med en inloppshastighet av ca 0.5 m/s visade att: mängden förångad vätska efter spill av olika vätskor vid olika initialtemperaturer kan förutsägas med god noggrannhet med befintliga dataprogram. Vid ett spill stannar den tunga ångan kvar i den nedre delen

Purpose: To investigate the relative importance of spatial resolution and noise on the image quality of clinical radiographs. Methods: The spatial resolution and noise of fifteen digitised lumbar spine radiographs were altered with image processing. Three different MTF curves and three different Wiener spectra were combined into seven different combinations of spatial resolution and noise. These s

Popular Abstract in Swedish Arbetare i gummiindustrin utsätts för ett stort antal kemikalier med hög giftighet. Tidigare forskning har visat att kemikalierna innebär en fara för hälsan. Gummiarbetarna har tidigare haft en ökad risk att drabbas av olika sjukdomar, t.ex. cancer, hjärtkärlsjukdomar och luftvägsbesvär, jämfört med allmänbefolkningen. Däremot vet man inte exakt vilka ämnen som är farliWorkers in the rubber industry have an increased risk of several diseases, such as airway disease, cancer and probably cardiovascular disease. The exposure is very complex; carbon disulfide (CS2) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) being two of the contaminants. The general aim of this thesis was to find exposure-response relationships usable for risk assessments in the rubber industry. U

Recent magnetic-resonance work on Y-Z suggests that this species exhibits considerable motional flexibility in its functional site and that its phenol oxygen is not involved in a well-ordered hydrogen-bond interaction (Tang et al., submitted; Tommos et al., in press). Both of these observations are inconsistent with a simple electron-transfer function for this radical in photosynthetic water oxida

The surface-to-bulk intensity ratio in Auger electron spectra has been studied in comparison with core-level photoelectron spectra using free argon clusters of sizes ranging over two orders of magnitude. Enhanced surface sensitivity is observed in L2,3M2,3M2.3 Auger electron spectra compared to 2p photoelectron spectra where electrons of similar kinetic energies were recorded. This is discussed in

At the point of saturation in a high-gain free-electron laser (FEL) the light is fully transversely coherent. The number and evolution of the transverse modes is important for the effective tune-up and subsequent operation of FELs based on the photon beam characterization and in designing multi-module devices that rely on relatively stable saturation distances in each module. In the latter, this i

Neural tissue transplantation has become an alternative treatment for Parkinson's disease (PD) and other neurodegenerative disorders. The clinical use of neural grafts as a source of dopamine for Parkinson's disease patients, although beneficial, is associated with logistical and ethical issues. Thus, alternative graft sources have been explored including polymer-encapsulated cells and nonneural c

OBJECTIVES: Untreated primary hyperarathyroidism (pHPT) is accompanied by an excessive morbidity in circulatory disorders, associated with blood pressure and diabetes. The aim of the present study was to further penetrate the impact of pHPT on glucose, urate, lipid and lipoprotein concentrations, known to be interrelated metabolic cardiovascular risk factors.DESIGN: Longitudinal study of patients

Impaired beta-cell function is key to the development of type 2 diabetes. Cocaine- and amphetamine-regulated transcript (CART) is an islet peptide with insulinotropic and glucagonostatic properties. Here we studied the role of endogenous CART in beta-cell function. CART silencing in INS-1 (832/13) beta-cells reduced insulin secretion and production, ATP levels and beta-cell exocytosis. This was su

Morphological studies have indicated that proximal nerve ends of transected rat sciatic nerves regenerating into preformed mesothelial chambers show a different organization as compared to neuromas developed in contact with a muscle fascia. We have studied the physiological properties of nerve fibres arising from these types of preparations with reference to ongoing activity, response to mechanica

This volume presents a series of case studies that trace the ways in which audiences across Europe have attempted to return to Pompeii by emulating its interior decorations since the city’s rediscovery in the mid-eighteenth century. As such, it is about both the impact of Pompeian antiquity on the present and the reception in the present of that antique past, exploring the variety of ways in which
