Syftet med denna uppsats är att genom en rättsdogmatisk metod och ett rättsekonomiskt perspektiv, undersöka och analysera det ekonomiska respektive rättsliga koncernbegreppet. Idag finns ingen allmänt gällande definition av begreppet koncern. En koncern rent associationsrättsligt uppstår när ett bolag innehar mer än hälften av andelarna i ett annat bolag. En koncern är aldrig ett beskattningssubThe main purpose of this essay is, through a legal dogmatic method, and a law and economics perspective, examine and analyse the distinctions between the economic and legal definition of corporate groups. A corporate group should hereby be understood as a parent-subsidiary corporation. Today there is no common definition of a corporate group. The existing legal definitions establish that when a

Background and purpose The role of copy number variation (CNV) variation in stroke susceptibility and outcome has yet to be explored. The Copy Number Variation and Stroke (CaNVAS) Risk and Outcome study addresses this knowledge gap. Methods Over 24,500 well-phenotyped IS cases, including IS subtypes, and over 43,500 controls have been identified, all with readily available genotyping on GWAS and e

Background and aim: Generic drugs contain the same active ingredients as brand- name drugs, with the advantage of much lower costs. The aim of this thesis was to contribute new knowledge to the ongoing debate on the safety of generic antiseizure drug (ASD) substitutions. There was a particular emphasis on the pharmacokinetic and clinical outcomes.Methods: In papers I and II, a prospective naturali

Background: Helicobacter pylori (Hp) and its virulence factor Cytotoxin-associated gene A (CagA) have been linked to myocardial infarction (MI), but the mechanisms are unknown. This study aims to test if Hp infection and CagA are associated with pre-specified inflammatory and vascular biomarkers in patients with MI and to explore whether a broader biomarker panel can predict infection. Furthermore

Background: Limited evidence exists for effect modification of genetic characteristics on the associations of food consumption and incident type 2 diabetes (T2D). Objectives: We aimed to investigate whether the food-T2D association would vary by genetic susceptibility to metabolic traits. Methods: We analyzed data from 9542 incident T2D cases and a subcohort of 12,477 participants nested within th

Building sustainable, collaborative solutions to contemporary sustainability challenges requires a new generation of future professionals or ‘change-agents,’ the engagement of non-academic stakeholders, and academic facilitation. Educational reform is needed in order to enhance students’ competencies in becoming effective sustainability professionals. Effective collaborative platforms have the pot

Lagen (1915:218) om avtal och andra rättshandlingar på förmögenhetsrättens område, AvtL och Internationella köplagen eller United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods, CISG, innehåller båda bestämmelser om ingående av avtal som bygger på en anbud-acceptmodell. Även om båda regelverken har samma grundstruktur, skiljer de sig åt i några avseenden, särskilt ifråga om möLagen (1915:218) om avtal och andra rättshandlingar på förmögenhetsrättens område, AvtL, and the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods, CISG, both contain provisions on the conclusion of contracts based on an offer-acceptance model. Although both legal systems have the same basic structure, they differ in some aspects, especially regarding the possibility to re

Idag har företagens varumärken gått från enbart det traditionella i form av en figur eller ett ord, antingen separat eller i kombination, till varumärkesportföljer som även inkluderar icke-visuella varumärken, vilka benämns inom varumärkesrätten som okonventionella varumärken. Till okonventionella varumärken hör bland annat ljudmärken, doftmärken, färgmärken, formmärken och även hologram. Hur denCorporate trademarks today have developed from solely a traditional form, meaning shape or word, together or in combination, to complete trademark portfolios that even include non-visual trademarks, referenced in trademark law as unconventional trademarks. Trademarks within audio, scent, color, form and even holograms are incorporated under unconventional trademarks. How this development has progr

Little is known about risk factors for central nervous system (CNS) relapse in mature T-cell and natural killer cell neoplasms (MTNKNs). We aimed to describe the clinical epidemiology of CNS relapse in patients with MTNKN and developed the CNS relapse In T-cell lymphoma Index (CITI) to predict patients at the highest risk of CNS relapse. We reviewed data from 135 patients with MTNKN and CNS relaps

Climate change represents a major threat to global biodiversity and associated ecosystem functions, including pollination. In both natural and agricultural environments, semi-natural grasslands represent crucial foraging and nesting habitats for wild pollinators such as bumblebees, for which temporal population trends in these habitats remain understudied. Here, we use data from a large-scale syst

PURPOSE: We explored the associations between vitamin C intake and the risk of islet autoimmunity (IA) and/or type 1 diabetes in genetically at-risk children. Furthermore, we explored associations between vitamin C metabolism-related single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and type 1 diabetes outcomes.METHODS: The current study within Environmental Determinants of Diabetes in the Young (TEDDY) coho

Background: Myocardial injury activates the complement lectin pathway (LP) in acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and LP inhibition improved cardiac function in experimental studies, suggesting a direct pathogenic role. The clinical consequences of LP activation are insufficiently defined. We investigated how plasma levels of the LP activators mannose-binding lectin (MBL) and ficolin-2 (FCN2) relate to

Abstract Abstract Author: Lama Akkache and Linnea Svensson Title: The professional meeting between social worker and client [translated title] Supervisor: Kristina Göransson Assessor: The purpose of this study was to examine if and how cultural differences between the social worker and client may have an effect on the professional meeting. More specifically the aim was to find out if the client a

The control of inventories is a key issue for achieving efficient management of supply chains. This Licentiate Thesis is devoted to inventory control theory, a subdiscipline within the field of operations research and the management sciences. The objective of the research presented is: To develop mathematical models for efficient control of stochastic multi-echelon inventory distribution systems,

BACKGROUND: Thrombin activation measured by the levels of the complex between activated protein C (APC) and the protein C inhibitor (PCI) is elevated in several atherosclerotic disorders. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether levels of the APC-PCI complex are related to the prognosis in peripheral arterial disease (PAD).
