Oavsett vad en förälder kan ha förordnat genom testamente har bröstarvingar enligt nuvarande arvsreglering alltid rätt till hälften av kvarlåtenskapen, den så kallade laglottsrätten. Uppsatsens syfte är att undersöka vilka intressen som har motiverat laglottsinstitutets utformning i Sverige, från instiftandet fram till nuvarande reglering, samt vilka argument som framförts för och emot dess bevara

Syftet med denna uppsats är att, med en rättsdogmatisk metod, utreda huruvida en styvförälder kan inta ställning som skyddsgarant för sina styvbarn och därigenom hållas ansvarig för ett oäkta underlåtenhetsbrott. En förutsättning för att en person ska kunna hållas straffrättsligt ansvarig för att genom underlåtenhet orsaka en viss effekt är att hen befinner sig i garantställning. Att en sådan stälThe purpose of this essay is to, by using a traditional judicial method, study whether a stepparent has a special duty to act in order to protect her stepchild and therefore if the stepparent can be held responsible for neglecting to do so. A prerequisite for the actualization of criminal liability based on omission is that person concerned has omitted a special duty to act. A self-evident basis

En konkurrensklausul är en förpliktelse i konkurrensförebyggande syfte och är ofta förekommande vid företagsöverlåtelser. Vid företagsförvärv som innefattar goodwill och/eller know-how uppkommer ett behov för köparen att söka skydd mot att säljaren, med sitt försprång, efter förvärvet inte startar upp en ny konkurrerande verksamhet. Den rådande konkurrenssituationen kan vara en förutsättning för aA non-competition clause is an undertaking in competition prevention and is frequently used in a company transfers. In the case of company acquisitions that include goodwill and/or expertise, a need arises for the buyer to seek protection that the vendor, with its lead, does not start up a new, competing business after the acquisition. The current competitive situation may be a prerequisite for th

Aim: Aquatic-terrestrial transition zones contain features essential for many species that often benefit wetland biodiversity. Shallow flood-zone areas and reed beds are indicative of natural wetland habitats; however, how such features affect the native arthropod biodiversity in constructed wetlands is scarcely investigated. We asked how these shoreline features, as well as wetland shoreline prop

Mining Life: An Exploration in Three Acts into the Potential of Socially Engaged Art Practices to Instigate Social Change investigates the intersection of art, activism, and social change through three major artistic research projects. Emerging from a critical shift in my own artistic practice, this thesis questions the role of socially engaged art within post-colonial structures, challenging the

Digitaliseringen och framväxten av Web 2.0 har förändrat dagens medielandskap och skapat nya förutsättningar för nyhetsmedier och dess intressenter. Till följd av det har mainstream och alternativ media större utrymme att nå och påverka en bredare publik. Detta skapar även en större möjlighet för intressenter och politiska aktörer att påverka över vad som publiceras i media. En politisk aktör som As a result of the digitalization and the digital era of Web 2.0, news media have undergone significant changes. Both mainstream and alternative media now have a greater opportunity to reach and influence a broader audience. Further, this allows stakeholders to exert more influence over news content, in which political actors and entities have the possibility to effectively communicate their polit

Introduction: Alpha-1-antitrypsin (AAT) has been shown to inhibit SARS-CoV-2 cell entry and suggested as a therapeutic agent for COVID-19. Furthermore, epidemiological association of high prevalence of Alpha-1-antitrypsin deficiency (AATD) and regional severity of COVID-19-impact has been hypothesized. In our study setting, the estimated prevalence rates of mild (PI*MZ, PI*SS or PI*MS) and moderat

We describe a reference panel of 64,976 human haplotypes at 39,235,157 SNPs constructed using whole-genome sequence data from 20 studies of predominantly European ancestry. Using this resource leads to accurate genotype imputation at minor allele frequencies as low as 0.1% and a large increase in the number of SNPs tested in association studies, and it can help to discover and refine causal loci.

Background: The use of mapping algorithms have been suggested as a solution to predict health utilities when no preference-based measure is included in the study. However, validity and predictive performance of these algorithms are highly variable and hence assessing the accuracy and validity of algorithms before use them in a new setting is of importance. The aim of the current study was to asses

Vid straffmätningen ska domstolen, utöver brottets straffvärde, i skälig om-fattning beakta omständigheter som saknar samband med straffvärdet men som har samband med gärningsmannens personrelaterade omständigheter efter brottet. Dessa omständigheter stadgas i 29 kap 5 § brottsbalken och kal-las för billighetsskäl. Om det föreligger en omständighet bland billighetsskälen kan det medföra strafflindThe court must, in the meting out of punishment, in addition to the penal value, consider reasonable circumstances that has no connection to the penal value, but which has a connection to the offender's personal circumstances after the crime. These circumstances are regulated in chapter 29, section 5 of the penal code and is referred to as the equitable grounds. If there is a circumstance amon

There has been a significant rise in the number of patents originating from academic environments. However, current conceptualizations of academic patents provide a largely homogenous approach to define this entrepreneurial form of technology transfer. In this study we develop a novel categorization framework that identifies three subsets of academic patents which are conceptually distinct from ea

Background: Registered Sick Children's Nurses and District Nurses employed at Child Health Care centres are in a position to help prevent childhood overweight and obesity. Prevention of this challenging public health threat could be improved through having a better understanding of how this group of nurses perceives childhood obesity. The aim of this study was to elucidate the conceptions of child

Risk disclosure is generally regarded as crucial in order for investors to make informed decisions in the resource allocation process. Our study is the first to empirically investigate the value-relevance of corporate risk disclosure. We focus on the disclosure of foreign exchange (FX) risk, which is an activity notorious for its lack of transparency. Our empirical analysis involves a FX risk disc

Diabetic patients have a much more widespread and aggressive form of atherosclerosis and therefore, higher risk for myocardial infarction, peripheral vascular disease and stroke, but the molecular mechanisms leading to accelerated damage are still unclear. Recently, we showed that hyperglycemia activates the transcription factor NFAT in the arterial wall, inducing the expression of the pro-atheros

OBJECTIVE Growth hormone (GH) deficiency is associated with insulin resistance and diabetes. The aim of the current study was to determine incidence of diabetes during GH replacement therapy (GHRT) and the effect of GHRT on fasting plasma glucose concentrations and HbA(1c) in adult patients with GH deficiency. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS-A total of 5,143 GH-deficient patients (male 49.9%; mean age
