När asylsökande barn och unga söker skydd i Sverige utan sina föräldrar tillsätts lekmän som gode män av kommunens överförmyndarnämnd. Uppdraget som god man utgår ifrån föräldrabalken och barnkonventionen: man ska vara ”erfaren, rättrådig och i övrigt lämplig för uppdraget” (11 kap.?12 och 13 §§ föräldrabalken). Mer än så krävs även särskild lämplighet för att arbeta med barn i en utsatt situation

This article presents an analysis of multidimensional segregation in Stockholm.Drawing on official statistics and existing empirical research, spatial and socioeconomic segregation are found to be increasingly tied to ethnicity, in a global city largely divided between affluent inner-city and marginalized peripheral boroughs. The analysis finds that migration flows’ impact on Stockholm’s asymmetri

Epigenome-wide gene–gene (G × G) interactions associated with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) survival may provide insights into molecular mechanisms and therapeutic targets. Hence, we proposed a three-step analytic strategy to identify significant and robust G × G interactions that are relevant to NSCLC survival. In the first step, among 49 billion pairs of DNA methylation probes, we identifie

A recent profusion of statistics on classical music repertoire, performers, and education from across several countries have produced quantitative evidence confirming that it is primarily a musical tradition where white, middle class European cis-males succeed. This chapter examines how improving the inclusivity and equality of classical music conflicts with its beliefs in meritocracy and high mus

Two conspicuous wet shifts in the peat stratigraphy of Store Mosse in southern Sweden, associated with bog-wide changes in vegetation and degree of peat decomposition, were analysed at high resolution. The bog-surface wetness (BSW) proxy data (organic matter bulk density, C/N ratio, plant macrofossils and testate amoebae) highlight the importance of interactions between vegetation composition, mic

BACKGROUND: The Emergency Department (ED) is a common route to hospitalization for critically ill and older adults. Older patients are admitted to hospital at a higher rate and have longer length of stay (LOS) when hospitalized. To be able to confront an increasing aging population, meet their medical needs and influence rising costs of health care, there is a need to focus on the older population

Contemporary music practitioners have recently begun using the concept of curatorial practice borrowed the visual arts to describe both artistic experimentation with formats, as well as institutions’ experimentation with both programming and their own organizational functioning.
