Acquittals in cases of child sexual abuse have repeatedly been criticized in the social debate. Not least when it comes to perpetrators not being considered having reason to assume that a child was under age, although the child being as young as 11-12 years old. The critique has been legitimate when regarding the problems before the change of the statutory regulation on July 1st, 2018. The efficie
Hemliga tvångsmedel är av stor betydelse för framgångsrik brottsbekämpning i samhället. Samtidigt innebär det en inskränkning av den enskildes rätt till privat- och familjeliv. Detta arbete analyserar om det är möjligt för brottsbekämpande myndigheter att skapa trygghet i den demokratiska rättsstaten genom mer effektiv brottsuppklaring med hjälp av hemliga tvångsmedel, utan att samtidigt kränka deSecret surveillance methods are of great importance for successful law enforcement in today’s society, however, the benefits for the crime fighting authorities can be at the expense of the individual’s rights to privacy. The object of this thesis is to analyze whether it is possible for law enforcement agencies to create a safe community, in a democratic constitutional state, through the use of se
During the period of June 2011 until July 2013, the thorax surgeon Paolo Macchiarini carried out four transplants with synthetic trachea on three different patients at the Karolinska University Hospital. These transplants entailed the later death of all the patients. Macchiarini was notified suspicion of a crime in June 2016, causing another's death, gross felony, alternatively, causing bodily
Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka hur ett aktiebolags utgifter hänförliga till klimatkompensation behandlas vid inkomstbeskattning. För att uppnå detta syfte tillämpas en traditionell rättsdogmatisk metod. Lagtexten innehåller inte någon särskild reglering avseende avdragsrätt för klimatkompensationsutgifter, vilket resulterar i att bedömningen baseras på de allmänna reglerna om avdragsrätThe purpose of this essay is to investigate how limited liability companies’ expenses related to carbon offset are treated in the event of income taxation. To accomplish this purpose a legal dogmatic method has been applied. The law contains no specific regulation concerning the deductibility of costs attributable to carbon offset and, as a result, the assessment is made based on the general rules
Mjukvaror och produktansvarslagen - en komparativ studie är en komparativ studie som belyser den svenska och danska produktansvarslagstiftningens tillämpligheten på mjukvaror och vad för problematik som uppstår om gällande lagstiftning inte omfattar mjukvaror. Tillämpligheten har diskuterats utifrån analyser av förarbeten och hur frågan har diskuterats i litteraturen. Slutligen förs ett resonemangMjukvaror och produktansvarslagen - en komparativ studie is a comparative study that illustrate the applicability of the Danish and Swedish Product Liability Act and what problems arise if the current legislation does not include software. The applicability has been discussed based on analyzes of preliminary work and how the issue has been discussed in the literature. Lastly, there is a discussion
On July 1 this year, a new crime for involving a minor in crime will be introduced in Chapter 16, Section 5 a of the Swedish Penal Code. In the government bill, the purpose of the new criminalization is described as protecting society from young people being drawn into criminal networks. For a penal provision to be considered justified, there are several criminalization principles to which it mus
Myeloid leukemia of Down syndrome has a better prognosis than sporadic pediatric acute myeloid leukemia. Most cases of myeloid leukemia of Down syndrome are characterized by additional cytogenetic changes besides the constitutional trisomy 21, but their potential prognostic impact is not known. We, therefore, conducted an international retrospective study of clinical characteristics, cytogenetics,
In 2009, it was estimated that around 70 000 young men’s and women’s choice when it came to marriage and choice of partner in Sweden was limited or conditional. The Government concluded that the legislation did not effectively fight the occurrence of forced marriage and child marriage, and therefore presented a proposition for civil and criminal law changes. The law changes came into force July 1s
Häktning är ett straffprocessuellt tvångsmedel som kan användas vid utredning av misstänkt brottslighet. Häktning kan under vissa förutsättningar kombineras med restriktioner, med följd att den häktade isoleras från omvärlden. Det svenska häktningsinstitutet har sedan tidigt 90-tal återkommande erhållit internationell kritik. Kritiken har bland annat avsett att det saknas tidsgränser för hur längeRemand is a coercive measure which may be used while investigating a suspected crime. Remand may, under certain conditions, be combined with restrictions, resulting in the detainee being isolated from the outside world. The Swedish remand institute has received international criticism since the early 1990s. The criticism has, among other things, been related to the lack of time limits for how long
Epidermolysis bullosa simplex (EBS) is usually inherited as an autosomal dominant disease due to monoallelic gain-of-function mutations in KRT5 or KRT14. Although autosomal recessive forms of EBS have been associated with mutations in at least 10 genes, recessive EBS due to homozygous biallelic KRT5 mutations has not been reported previously; it has been hypothesized that it would result in prenat
OBJECTIVES: To illuminate patterns observed in International Cancer Benchmarking Programme studies by extending understanding of the various influences on presentation and referral with cancer symptoms.DESIGN: Cross-country comparison of Denmark, England and Sweden with qualitative analysis of in-depth interview accounts of the prediagnostic process in lung or bowel cancer.PARTICIPANTS: 155 women
Background:Transcriptomic profiles have shown promise as predictors of response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy in breast cancer (BC). This study aimed to explore their predictive value in the advanced BC (ABC) setting.Methods:In a Phase 3 trial of first-line chemotherapy in ABC, a fine needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) was obtained at baseline. Intrinsic molecular subtypes and gene modules related to i
The study of brain development in humans is limited by the lack of tissue samples and suitable in vitro models. Here, we model early human neural tube development using human embryonic stem cells cultured in a microfluidic device. The approach, named microfluidic-controlled stem cell regionalization (MiSTR), exposes pluripotent stem cells to signaling gradients that mimic developmental patterning.
Neuroblastoma is a childhood solid tumour originating from undifferentiated neural progenitor cells of the sympathetic nervous system. Drug resistance of childhood cancer neuroblastoma is a serious clinical problem. In the present study, we aimed to identify novel drugs that can inhibit the growth and survival of chemoresistant neuroblastoma. High-throughput screening identified a small molecule,
The object of this study was to determine the association between tender point pain ratings, tender point counts and distress in people with fibromyalgia and to review the pharmacotherapy of fibromyalgia. Demographic, psychosocial, and health status information was collected from 316 health maintenance organization members with fibromyalgia. A manual tender point exam was conducted. Tender point c
Spermine oxidase (SMOX) catalyzes the oxidation of spermine to spermidine. Observational studies have reported SMOX as a source of reactive oxygen species associated with cancer, implying that inhibition of SMOX could be a target for chemoprevention. Here we test causality of SMOX levels with cancer risk using a Mendelian randomization analysis. We performed a GWAS of spermidine/spermine ratio to
Background: The complement and kallikrein-kinin systems (KKS) are activated during vascular inflammation. The aim of this study was to investigate if blockade of the KKS can affect complement activation on the endothelium during inflammation. Methods: Complement deposition on endothelial microvesicles was assayed in vasculitis patient plasma samples and controls. Plasma was perfused over glomerula
