This article deals with local government bodies, especially municipalities, as parties to contracts. The primary focus is on the identification and analysis of general problems in Swedish law relating to the competence of a municipality to enter into contracts, and the subsequent legal effects, in the light of the principles and rules of public and private law
This paper develops a novel sparse direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation technique that avoids the common requirement of hyperparameters, which are typically difficult to set suitably in practice. Using the presented minimum mean-square error (MMSE) estimation framework, we propose a computationally efficient super-resolution DOA estimator that is implemented using an alternate updating of the spa
Axillary lymphadenopathy is a common side effect of COVID-19 vaccination, leading to increased imaging-detected asymptomatic and symptomatic unilateral axillary lymphadenopathy. This has threatened to negatively impact the workflow of breast imaging services, leading to the release of ten recommendations by the European Society of Breast Imaging (EUSOBI) in August 2021. Considering the rapidly cha
AbstractAim: The overall aim of the thesis was to examine the psychosocial effects and family reactions to participation in longitudinal studies with their children at high risk for type 1 diabetes. Additionally, we aimed to develop a shorter form for the children to measure their anxiety when thinking of their risk of developing type 1 diabetes, which could be used in The Environmental Determinan
Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is linked to an increased cardiovascular disease (CVD) burden. Albeit underappreciated, sex differences are evident in CKD with females being more prone to CKD development, but males progressing more rapidly to kidney failure (KF). Cardiovascular remodelling is a hallmark of CKD with increased arterial and valvular calcification contributing to CKD. However
I FN-konventionen om internationella köp - CISG - ges bestämmelser om ingående av avtal om internationella köp av varor, köparens och säljarens respektive skyldigheter, påföljder vid kontraktsbrott och andra aspekter rörande sådana köp. I samband med sitt tillträde till konventionen förklarade Danmark, Finland, Norge och Sverige i enlighet med artikel 92(1) bl.a. att de inte skulle vara bundna av
The construction sector is of great importance to the Swedish economy, but its impact on the climate is significant and the sector accounts for about 40% of Sweden's total energy consumption. The sector also generates a significant share of the total material flows and waste quantities in the society. Thus, due to the large impact of the construction sector, there are great opportunities to contri
Background: Cervical cancer is a major global health issue, with 89% of cases occurring in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Human papillomavirus (HPV) self-sampling tests have been suggested as an innovative way to improve cervical cancer screening uptake and reduce the burden of disease. The objective of this review was to examine the effect of HPV self-sampling on screening uptake compa
This paper analyzes the influence of the interannual variability of climatic drought on ecological and hydrological droughts for a basin in the central Spanish Pyrenees using variables derived from observations and hydro-ecological simulation in order to determine the possible connection between meteorological, ecological and hydrological drought considering a cascading approach and encompassing d
Europe has experienced severe drought events in recent decades, posing challenges to understand vegetation responses due to diverse vegetation distribution, varying growth stages, different drought characteristics, and concurrent hydroclimatic factors. To analyze vegetation response to meteorological drought, we employed multiple vegetation indicators across European biomes. Our findings reveal th
