BACKGROUND: Women with a history of adverse pregnancy outcomes have a higher risk of coronary heart disease. Emerging evidence suggests that women with a history of preeclampsia have a different pattern of overall coronary atherosclerosis and that they at the time of myocardial infarction (MI) more frequently present with ST-segment elevation MI (STEMI) compared to women with no such history.OBJEC

Background:Non-motor symptoms (NMS) reduce quality of life in Parkinson’s disease (PD) patients, who experience three times more NMS than individuals without PD. While there are international and national NMS treatment guidelines, their implication in clinical practice remains unclear.Objective:This study aimed to investigate the adherence to pharmacological NMS treatment guidelines in patients wi

Climate change risk assessment studies focus on identifying and analyzing different risks considering several climate change scenarios and on evaluating the cost-effectiveness of different adaptation measures. However, risk acceptability is often not reflected on in the context of climate change risk studies. Noting that the different climate change scenarios depict drastically contrasting images

BACKGROUND: The key prognostic factors for staging patients with primary cutaneous melanoma are Breslow thickness, ulceration, and sentinel lymph node (SLN) status. The multicenter selective lymphadenectomy trial (MSLT-I) verified SLN status as the most important prognostic factor for patients with intermediate-thickness melanoma (Breslow thickness, 1-4 mm). Although most international guidelines

The successful management of a childbirth emergency will be dependent on the decision-making of involved obstetricians and gynecologists. Individual differences in decision-making may be explained through personality traits. The objectives of the present study were (I) to describe personality trait levels of obstetricians and gynecologists and (II) to examine the relationship between obstetricians

Background: Treatment of common bile duct (CBD) stones after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) poses a particular challenge given the altered anatomy and inability to perform a standard endoscopic retrograde cholangiogram (ERC). The optimal treatment strategy for intraoperatively encountered CBD stones in post-RYGB patients has not been established. Objectives: To compare outcomes following laparosc

Transgender people report significantly poorer mental health than cisgender people. In psychological research, these health disparities are explained by theories of minority stress and microaggressions, while other disciplines use theories on normativity, livability, affective work, world making and utopias. Such theories are seldom picked up by psychologists even though they could serve to help p

BackgroundWomen are at a greater risk of a major adverse cardiovascular event (MACE) after percutaneous coronary intervention than men. A history of preterm delivery is a female-specific risk factor for coronary artery disease, but its relevance in the treatment of coronary artery disease is unknown.ObjectivesThe purpose of this study was to analyze the association between a history of preterm del

Att tilltalade påstår att de handlat i sömnen är inget nytt fenomen, internationella mordrättegångar finns återgivna från mitten av 1800-talet. Uppsatsen omfattar en undersökning av 75 tingsrättsdomar varav 42 överklagats och avgjorts i hovrätten. Vid svenska brottmålsrättegångar är det främst vid åtal om sexualbrott och brottslighet relaterad till bilkörning där tilltalade påstått att de sov vid

En kontraktskedja uppstår när en avtalspart ingår avtal med en utomstående om att fullfölja hela eller del av dennes prestation. Avtalen länkas samman för att uppfylla det mål som avtalats mellan parterna i det främre ledet. Det främre ledet består av A och B, och det bakre ledet består av B och C. Denna uppsats undersöker möjligheten att rikta ett skadeståndsrättsligt direktkrav, alltså när A kanA contractual chain is created when a debtor to a contract delegates his duty to perform under the contract to a third party. The legal relation in the front link consists of A and B, and the rear link consists of B and C. This thesis examines the possibility for A to bring an action for damages against C. In this scenario B has a contractual liability to A for Cs actions, and C has by being reckl

Många forskare anser att domstolen i Pinnstolsfallet påverkades av den samhällsdebatt som tog fart efter domen i Lindomefallet. I ifrågavarande fall friades två män från ansvar för mord efter att ha skyllt på varandra och det inte gick att bevisa vem som talade sanning. I Pinnstolsfallet å andra sidan dömde domstolen två män för dråp i, vad som verkade vara, utvidgat medgärningsmannaskap. Det utSeveral legal scholars believe that the court in the case of the wooden chair (“Pinnstolsfallet”) was influenced by the public debate that took off after the judicial decision in the case of Lindome (“Lindomefallet”). In the case in question two men were found not guilty of murder after their objections that the other one was the guilty one. In the case of the wooden chair the court found two men

Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka den skatterättsliga värderingen av bostadsförmåner ur ett rättssäkerhetsperspektiv. Den teoretiska diskussionen görs med avstamp i en inkonsekvent kammarrättspraxis som har uppenbarat sig de senaste åren. Enligt gällande rätt ska värderingen göras i enlighet med huvudregeln för skattepliktiga förmåner. Denna huvudregel återfinns i 61 kap. 2 § inkomstskatt
