On the first of July 2018, Sweden made a drastic change to its rape provision, by adopting a new legislation, commonly referred to as the ”Consent Law”. Sweden’s neighboring country, Denmark, adopted its own version of the Consent Law a couple of years later, on the first of January 2021. The newely change of the Swedish and Danish penal codes have been an important step torwards reducing rap

År 2008 brakade den finansiella marknaden samman och följdes av en recession världen över som vi till viss del fortfarande brottas med. OTC-derivat, ett skräddarsytt bilateralt finansiellt instrument, har i finanskrisens efterdyningar beskyllts vara en av bovarna i dramat. Särskilt tros OTC-derivaten ha bidragit till en icke-transparens på marknaden som gjorde det omöjligt att både förutse och förIn 2008 the financial market collapsed and what followed was a worldwide recession which the market has yet to fully recover from. OTC-derivatives, which are tailor-made bilateral financial instruments, have in the aftermath of the collapse been accused of being one of the culprits. More specifically, OTC-derivatives are believed to have contributed to the opaque financial market that made it impo

On 1 July 2022, the Swedish Act (1988:254) on the Prohibition of Knives and Other Dangerous Objects (the Swedish Knife Act), which criminalizes possession of knives and other dangerous objects in public places, was amended. Through the amendment, four criteria were introduced to the statutory text, which are to be given particular consideration when assessing whether a violation of the law is to b

Patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) face an approximately 30 % risk of thrombosis post-diagnosis. However, there remains significant knowledge gaps regarding causative mechanisms, and there is a lack of specific antithrombotic guidelines. This systematic review aims to examine the existing literature regarding the mechanisms contributing to thrombosis risk in SLE, focusing on five pre

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) have endocrine disrupting properties and they cross the placental barrier, but studies on gestational exposure and child anthropometry are inconclusive. We aimed to elucidate the impact of early gestational PAH exposure on anthropometry from birth to 10 years of age in 1295 mother-child pairs from a nested sub-cohort of the MINIMat trial in Bangladesh. Sever

We have previously identified UMP-CMP kinase (CMPK1) as a prognostic marker for triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) by mass spectrometry (MS). In this study we evaluated CMPK1 association to prognosis in an independent set of samples by immunohistochemistry (IHC) and assessed biological pathways associated to its expression through gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA). A total of 461 TNBC paraffin

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

Purpose Asthma is frequently reported in endurance athletes. The aim of the present study was to assess the long-term airway inflammatory response to endurance exercise in high-level athletes with and without asthma. Methods In a cross-sectional design, 20 asthmatic athletes (10 swimmers and 10 cross-country skiers), 19 athletes without asthma (10 swimmers and 9 cross-country skiers), and 24 healt

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is often caused by smoking and other stressors. This causes oxidative stress, which induces numerous changes on both the transcriptome and proteome of the cell. We aimed to examine if the endomembrane pathway, including the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), Golgi, and lysosomes, was disrupted in fibroblasts from COPD patients as opposed to healthy ever-smoker

Retinal implant devices are becoming an increasingly realizable way to improve the vision of patients blinded by photoreceptor degeneration. As an electrode material that can improve restored visual acuity, carbon nanotubes (CNTs) excel due to their nanoscale topography, flexibility, surface chemistry, and double-layer capacitance. If vertically aligned carbon nanotubes (VACNTs) are biocompatible

Tree planting is widely advocated and applied in urban areas, with large-scale projects underway in cities globally. Numerous potential benefits are used to justify these planting campaigns. However, reports of poor tree survival raise questions about the ability of such projects to deliver on their promises over the long-term. Each potential benefit requires different supporting conditions-relati
