Purpose: Childhood cancer is rare, and treatment is frequently associated with long-term morbidity. Disparities in survival and long-term side effects encourage the establishment of networks to increase access to complex organ-conservative strategies, such as brachytherapy. We report our experience of an international cooperation model in childhood cancers. Methods and Materials: We examined the o
The Council Directive 92/50/EEC of 18 June 1992 relating to the coordination of procedures for the award of public service contracts establishes shared rules and procedures for the award of public service contracts within the internal market. The directive defines the public service contract award criteria, contracting authorities are bound to apply. Purpose of this study is to demonstrate how leg
Denna uppsats ämnar undersöka, analysera och diskutera försvarlighetsbedömningar vid förtal enligt brottsbalken. Uppsatsen söker svaret på hur bedömningen går till samt hur den bör gå till. Undersökningen är begränsad till att omfatta förtal begångna på sociala medier då någon blivit utpekad som brottsling.

It looks at how assessments currently proceed rela- tive to how they could potentially be handled differently. This survey is limited to cover- ing slander committed on social media when someone has been singled out as a criminal. Our thesis also addresses what is relevant in
Den 1 juli 2018 trädde en ny lag om våldtäktsbrottet i kraft baserad på frivillighet. Överväganden kring ett införande av en samtyckesbaserad lagstiftning har pågått och omdebatterats under lång tid och två gånger tidigare har frågan utretts i 1998 års sexualbrottskommitté och 2008 års sexualbrottsutredning. Efter lagändringen 2018 är det tillräckligt med avsaknad av frivillighet vid deltagande i The 1st of July 2018, a new legislation regarding rape came into force, based on consent and voluntary participation. Considerations regarding a consent-based legislation has been ongoing and disputed, not least during the last century and twice before the question has been investigated in the 1998 sex crime committee and the 2008 sex crime investigation. Since the change it is no longer required
Den här uppsatsen handlar om tillämpningen av barnets bästa i vårdnadstvister som föregåtts av umgängessabotage. När vårdnaden om ett barn ska beslutas ska avgörandet göras efter vad som är barnets bästa. Umgängessabotage utgör en omständighet av särskild betydelse i avvägningen mellan olika intressen som alla kan tala för barnets bästa. Därtill är ett barns bästa inte alltid det bästa för ett annThe purpose of this paper is to examine the adjudication of the child's best interest in custody trials preceded by one parent preventing the other parent from contact with the child. In custody trials, the best interest of the child is always the primary consideration. Preventing the other parent from contact with the child constitute a circumstance of particular importance in the determinati
Medlingsinstitutet är en alternativ konflikthantering där parterna ges möjlighet att påverka konfliktens lösning och att återställa lugnet parterna emellan. Transaktioner är inte alltid friktionsfria och situationer kan uppstå där en av parterna vill föra saken inför domstol. Det är inte ovanligt att ombud i dessa situationer hotar om stämning som en skrämseltaktik för att ge sin part en hävstång.The Mediation Institute is a form of dispute resolution alternative to the judicial process where the parties may impact with the process and can influence the outcome, all in the purpose of restoring the calm between the parties. Transactions are not always successful and may result in a dispute where one party is inclined to take the dispute to court. It is not unusual that a part’s lawyer uses
This thesis examines the extent to which lobbyists bring democratic value to the policy-formulation and decision-making stages of the EU policy process. It is examined through a single case study of the amendment of Directive 2001/83/EC. By adopting an actor-centered institutionalism perspective and through theoretical discussion on Robert Keohane, Fritz Scharpf and Pieter Bouwen, this thesis bui
Att polisen använder sig av provokativa åtgärder i brottsbekämpningen är i viss mån accepterat i Sverige. Brottsprovokation och bevisprovokation anses vara nödvändiga metoder för att bekämpa allvarlig och organiserad brottslighet och har blivit ett allt vanligare inslag i polisens arbete sedan början av 1980-talet. Sedan dess har även en förändring skett vad gäller inställningen till den provoceraThe use of provocative investigative measures is in Sweden an accepted method in the control of crime. These measures are considered to be essential parts in the fight against serious and organized criminality and have become a more commonly used instrument for the police since the early 1980’s. Since then, there has been a change concerning how a criminal is treated legally after being subject to
Most of the common modeling approaches to premixed combustion in engineering applications are either based on the assumption of infinitely fast chemistry or the flamelet assumption with simple chemistry. The level-set flamelet library approach (FLA) has shown great potential in predicting major species and heat release, as well as intermediate and minor species, where more simple models often fail
The sharing economy is currently widely discussed and politically of great importance, especially in urban areas. After a first rise in public interest due to a potential decrease of consumption, engaged actors are now calling for regulation mechanisms to defend the concept against the co-option by large incumbent firms, who transform the original idea into new economic opportunities. The accommod
Today, many cities around the world are looking for means to reduce their consumption-originated emissions and in this way improve their sustainability. Consequently, local governments are becoming increasingly interested in the potential of the ‘sharing economy’ (SE). By enabling the consumption of resources and services through sharing as opposed to purchasing goods for ownership, urban sharing
Historiskt sett har människor byggt sina hus med de material som den omgivande naturen gav. Både vass och lera är två sådana material som förekommer naturligt. Det som bl.a. skiljer dessa material åt är de processer som krävs för att de ska kunna användas som taktäckningsmaterial. Vassen skördas och torkas medan leran bearbetas och bränns för att slutligen bli en användbar produkt. I tidigare svenHistorically, people built their houses with the materials that the surrounding nature gave. Reeds and clay are two such materials occurring naturally. A difference between these materials is the processes required for them to be used as roofing material. Reed is harvested and then dried while the clay is processed and fired to finally become the useful product. In earlier Swedish history roofs we
Korruption är ett begrepp som inte har någon klar definition. Det är många vetenskaper som diskuterar korruption, dock görs detta med delvis olika synvinklar. Denna framställning visar att det finns många olika perspektiv att anlägga på korruptionsproblematiken, perspektiv som dessutom leder till olika slutsatser om problematikens orsaker och verkan. Fler tvärvetenskapliga perspektiv behövs, för aCorruption is a term that has no clear definition. There are many disciplines that discuss corruption, however, this is done with somewhat different perspectives. This essay shows multiple perspectives on corruption issues, perspectives which also lead to different conclusions about the causes and effects of corruption. More interdisciplinary perspectives are needed to be able to work against corr

When new technologies for the health care sector are developed, it is of outmost importance to increase the possibilities of survival and remain high quality of life for patients. During the conception and design of such technologies, the problem to solve and the possible solutions to achieve have to be well understood and the scope has to be defined. For the particular case of the project LISA, t
Ladyfest Sweden is a cultural festival which aims to create a cultural space of expression for women, thus the artists and the organizers are women. It is organized by three different groups in three different cities: Malmö, Stockholm and Göteborg. This thesis is focused on Ladyfest Malmö, all the field work being realized with this group. We tried to include this phenomenon in a global and a part
Summary: Floodwater mosquitoes occur in temporary flooded areas and can cause tremendous nuisance in the near and far surroundings. In the Nedre Dalälven region in Central Sweden, mosquito control is based on application of the biological larvicide Bacillus thuringiensis israelensis (BTI) by helicopter. Precise mapping of the floodwater mosquito breeding sites, a prerequisite for successful BTI tr
Economic sanctions are defined as the exercise of pressure by one state to produce a change in the political behaviour of another state. Traditional economic sanctions are directed at the entire population of a state whilst targeted sanctions are directed at a state’s individuals. This thesis discusses the application of economic sanctions against Iran by the UN, the EU and the United States. Econ
The European pulp and paper industry (PPI) directly emits 31.9 Mton CO2 (2016) and indirectly 12.3 and 5 Mton CO2 from purchased electricity and transport respectively. It also accounts for 68 Mton of biogenic CO2 emissions. The PPI is a mature industry with overall stagnating market demand in the past ten years and relatively high levels of recycling. Forest countries like Sweden and Finland domi
Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC) is caused by a germline mutation in one of several DNA repair genes, which in the tumors is reflected as microsatellite instability (MSI). MSI+ tumors have been found to carry somatic frameshift mutations in mononucleotide repeats within the coding regions of several genes involved in growth control, apoptosis, and DNA repair, e.g., TGFBRII, BAX, I
