Det råder universell samsyn beträffande familjens egenvärde. Likaledes be-traktas barnets rätt att umgås med en förälder som det inte bor med som ett av barnrättens främsta intressen. Det är emellertid av väsentlig betydelse att ett umgänge inte kommer till stånd om det finns en risk att barnet kan komma till skada. Bedömningen är komplex och parametrarna är många, när fundamen-tala intressen stårThe right of a child to maintain a personal relation to a parent with whom the child does not live is identified as one of the primary interests of children’s rights. However, it is essential that this never happens at the expense of the child’s safety. The assessment is complex and there are many parameters to take into consideration, when two vital interests are in direct conflict. It should als

Brottsligheten inom den kriminella miljön utförs idag oftare i offentliga miljöer. Den allvarliga brottsutvecklingen i Sverige har föranlett ett stort behov av brottspreventiva åtgärder. En åtgärd som vidtagits är lag (2024:7) om preventiva vistelseförbud som syftar till att förebygga brott med anknytning till kriminella nätverk och öka tryggheten på allmänna platser. Ett preventivt vistelseförb

En tredjedel av maten vi produceras slängs, mat som har tagit resurser och landyta i anspråk för att bli till. För att få bukt med det globala matsvinnet har FN satt ett hållbarhetsmål att halvera matsvinnet inom mathandel och hushåll till 2030. En faktor som kan kopplas till matsvinn är förpackningar. När de används korrekt förhindrar förpackningar matsvinn genom att ge skydd och ökad hållbarhet,Globally, about a third of the food produced is wasted. To address this issue, the United Nations has set a sustainability goal of reducing food waste in retail and household by 50\% to 2030. One factor that can be connected to the generation of food waste is packaging. When applied correctly, packaging prevents waste by providing protection and shelf life, but when packaging does not meet consume

Background: The effect of the macronutrient composition of the usual diet on long term weight maintenance remains controversial. Methods: 373,803 subjects aged 25-70 years were recruited in 10 European countries (1992-2000) in the PANACEA project of the EPIC cohort. Diet was assessed at baseline using country-specific validated questionnaires and weight and height were measured at baseline and sel

Context: Rapid cycling is a severe form of bipolar disorder with an increased rate of episodes that is particularly treatment-responsive to chronotherapy and stable sleep-wake cycles. We hypothesized that the P2RX7 gene would be affected by sleep deprivation and be implicated in rapid cycling. Objectives: To assess whether P2RX7 expression is affected by total sleep deprivation and if variation in

Environmental factors, including viral infections, may explain an increasing and fluctuating incidence of childhood type 1 diabetes (T1D). Ljungan virus (LV) isolated from bank voles have been implicated, but it is unclear whether LV contributes to islet autoimmunity, progression to clinical onset, or both, of T1D. The aim was to test whether LV antibodies (LVAb) were related to HLA-DQ and islet a

Background: Epigenetic factors regulate tissue-specific expression and X-chromosome inactivation. Previous studies have identified epigenetic differences between sexes in some human tissues. However, it is unclear whether epigenetic modifications contribute to sex-specific differences in insulin secretion and metabolism. Here, we investigate the impact of sex on the genome-wide DNA methylation pat

Previous studies have shown that obesity and hypertension are associated with increased risk of renal cell carcinoma (RCC), but less is known about the association to other metabolic factors. In the Metabolic Syndrome and Cancer project (Me-Can) data on body mass index (BMI, kg/m2), blood pressure, and circulating levels of glucose, cholesterol, and triglycerides were collected from 560,388 men an

The preferences of some woodland understorey species for ammonium and nitrate were investigated by measuring the potential nitrification (conversion of ammonium to nitrate) in the rhizosphere compared with the bulk soil. Less acid-tolerant species, which usually prefer nitrate or a mixture of ammonium and nitrate in hydroponic culture, should have a higher potential nitrification in the rhizospher

Parental type 2 diabetes mellitus increases the risk of diabetic nephropathy in offspring with type 1 diabetes mellitus. Several single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) that predispose to type 2 diabetes mellitus have recently been identified. It is, however, not known whether such SNPs also confer susceptibility to diabetic nephropathy in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus. We genotyped nine S

Scand J Caring Sci; 2012 Satisfaction with rehabilitation in relation to self-perceived quality of life and function among patients with stroke - a 12 month follow-up Background and Purpose: Stroke causes complex disability and function, and perceived quality of life has been shown to correlate with satisfaction with care as well as with life in general among stroke patients. The aim of this study

The concept of social capital has gained wide interest in public health research in recent years. However, we suggest a concept that was introduced and developed by Fukuyama, named "miniaturization of community".. as an alternative to that of social capital. The concept of miniaturization of community emphasizes that a high level of social participation can be accompanied by a low level of trust,

BACKGROUND: Obesity has, in a number of studies, been found to correlate to disability and mortality, primarily due to diseases of the circulatory and musculoskeletal systems. In addition, an excess mortality among underweight subjects has been observed in previous studies. METHODS: Five complete birth-year cohorts (1926-1930) of male residents in Malmo (n = 7697) were invited to the survey at the

BACKGROUND. Patients with the familial syndrome hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal carcinoma (HNPCC) exhibit air increased risk for several tumor types, of which the greatest lifetime risk is for colorectal and endometrial carcinoma. HNPCC is caused by a germline mutation in one of several identified mismatch repair (MMR) genes and typically presents with microsatellite instability (MSI) and frequ

Background: Old people's life situation when receiving municipal help and care in their last period of life is sparsely investigated from their own perspective. Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the experiences of aspects that bring about a good life in the last phase of life among people (75 + years) receiving municipal care. Participants: Older people living in a municipality i
