Aron Flam was charged on July 17th, 2020 with copyright infringement. He used an already existing work "En svensk tiger" by Bertil Almqvist and made a parody out of the work that he then used for the cover of his book “Det här är en svensk tiger”. Flam uses his freedom of speech in his book which discusses “silence culture” in Sweden, from a critical perspective. He uses the parody to co
On 1st of July 2018 a new sexual crime law was introduced in Sweden. The Swedish sexual crime law is now based on explicit consent. The law also introduces a new offence, negligent rape. The negligence aspect means that intent is not required to be convicted of rape, punishment can be claimed in gross negligence. Gross negligence means that the perpetrator has been deliberately negligent, and in s
Officiellt sett har den Europeiska Unionen (EU) en klar ambition att utveckla ett asylsystem som överensstämmer med skyldigheter enligt internationella instrument för mänskliga rättigheter. Kritiker har dock sedan mer än 20 år ifrågasatt huruvida EU:s regelverk avseende asyl och migration står i överensstämmelse med till exempel principen om non-refoulement som etableras i Genèvekonventionen av deThe European Union (EU) has officially expressed an ambition to develop a common European asylum system consistent with international human rights obligations. However, the compatibility of the EU asylum system with international human rights and with the principle of non-refoulement, established in the Geneva Convention of 28 July 1951, have been questioned over the last 20 years. This study exa

Background: Understanding the relationship among changes in Clinical Dementia Rating (CDR), patient outcomes, and probability of progression is crucial for evaluating the long-term benefits of disease-modifying treatments. We examined associations among changes in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) stages and outcomes that are important to patients and their care partners including activities of daily livin
We present new data for the ∼3.0 Ga Maniitsoq Norite Belt of the Akia Terrane, West Greenland, with the aim of understanding its petrogenesis. The Maniitsoq Norite Belt is hosted in regional tonalite-trondhjemite-granodiorite (TTG) and dioritic orthogneisses, intruded by later sheets of TTG and granite pegmatites, and comprises two main rock types: plagioclase-rich “norites” and pyroxene-rich “mel
Background: The prevalence of autism in Denmark has been increasing, reaching 1.65% among 10-year-old children, and similar trends are seen elsewhere. Although there are several factors associated with autism, including genetic, environmental, and prenatal factors, the molecular etiology of autism is largely unknown. Here, we use untargeted metabolomics to characterize the neonatal metabolome from
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
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
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.
ClC-1 protein channels facilitate rapid passage of chloride ions across cellular membranes, thereby orchestrating skeletal muscle excitability. Malfunction of ClC-1 is associated with myotonia congenita, a disease impairing muscle relaxation. Here, we present the cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) structure of human ClC-1, uncovering an architecture reminiscent of that of bovine ClC-K and CLC tran
The land-atmosphere exchange of methane (CH4) and carbon dioxide (CO2) in a high-Arctic wet tundra ecosystem (Rylek ae rene) in Zackenberg, north-eastern Greenland, was studied over the full growing season and until early winter in 2008 and from before snow melt until early winter in 2009. The eddy covariance technique was used to estimate CO2 fluxes and a combination of the gradient and eddy cova
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,
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 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
In the course of 2000s, the region of Campania in southern Italy and its capital city Naples became global icons of waste mismanagement after the images of piles of rubbish occluding their urban areas hit the headlines. Conventional explanations, in Italy and elsewhere, pointed to administrative failure, cultural backwardness and mafia infiltration as the main causes of waste mishandling. In the s
