BackgroundRecovery colleges were developed in England to support the recovery of individuals who have mental health symptoms or mental illness. They have been founded in many countries but there has been little international research on recovery colleges and no studies investigating their staffing, fidelity, or costs. We aimed to characterise recovery colleges internationally, to understand organi
A quarter of ischaemic strokes are lacunar subtype, typically neurologically mild, usually resulting from intrinsic cerebral small vessel pathology, with risk factor profiles and outcome rates differing from other stroke subtypes. This European Stroke Organisation (ESO) guideline provides evidence-based recommendations to assist with clinical decisions about management of lacunar ischaemic stroke
Anemia because of insufficient production of and/or response to erythropoietin (Epo) is a major complication of chronic kidney disease and cancer. The mechanisms modulating the sensitivity of erythroblasts to Epo remain poorly understood. We show that, when cultured with Epo at suboptimal concentrations, the growth and clonogenic potential of erythroblasts was rescued by transferrin receptor 1 (Tf
Background: The International Consortium for Health Outcomes Measurement (ICHOM) was founded in 2012 to propose consensus-based measurement tools and documentation for different conditions and populations.This article describes how the ICHOM Older Person Working Group followed a consensus-driven modified Delphi technique to develop multiple global outcome measures in older persons. The standard se
Människohandel för sexuella ändamål är ett komplext fenomen och ett globalt problem som både berör och upprör. Människohandel är gärningar som syftar till ett efterföljande utnyttjande av offret och ett brott där skyddssyftet är personlig frihet och frid. Det är också ett sammansatt problem, det vill säga att det innefattar bland annat brott mot mänskliga rättigheter, organiserad brottslighet, migHuman trafficking for sexual purposes is a complex phenomenon and a global problem that upsets. Human trafficking is an acts aimed to subsequent exploit the victim and a crime which aim the protection of personal liberty and peace. It is also a complex problem, that includes human rights violations, organized crime, migration, gender, poverty and social, economic and political differences between
Syftet med den här uppsatsen är att ur ett civilrättsligt perspektiv undersöka hur de svenska civilrättsliga reglerna skyddar någon som riskerar att utsättas för barn- och tvångsäktenskap, samt olika myndigheters agerande och förhållningssätt när de möter någon som befinner sig i riskzonen för påtvingade äktenskap. En stor del av de äktenskap som ingås mot någons vilja berör parter som bor i oli
The Swedish Government has recently initiated additional permit-free buildings with the aim to simplify the Planning and Building act, reduce the housing shortage and increase a property owner’s proprietorship. According to the amendment it is possible to construct a complementary home with the size of 25 square meters in close proximity to an existing house. This building is known as an Attefall
Till följd av finanskrisen förlorade konsumenter genom placeringar i riskfyllda finansiella instrument stora delar av sina investeringar. Under åren 2008 och 2009 inkom fler klagomål till Finansinspektionen och Konsumentverket jämfört med tidigare år om att många konsumenter via rådgivning rekommenderats produkter som inte motsvarat den risk de varit beredda att ta eller att information om risken The aftermath of the financial crisis meant that many consumers lost parts of their investments because they had invested their savings in risky financial instruments. Between the years of 2008 and 2009, the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority, Finansinspektionen, and the Swedish Consumer Agency, Konsumentverket, received more complaints, compared to previous years, regarding financial advisor
Att Söka efter Higgs-Bosonen Den dittills oupptäckta Higgs-bosonen upptäcktes förra året på CERN i Schweiz. Denna partikel har en central roll i partikelfysiken, och var därför oerhört viktig att upptäcka. Då den lever väldigt kort tid går den inte att detektera direkt. Detta arbete söker finna massan hos Higgs-bosonen, och använder sig då av fallet då den sönderfaller till fyra myoner. Higgs-bosoAbstract Within the Standard Model of particle physics, there was only one undiscovered fundamental particle. This was the Higgs boson. In July 2012, the announcement was made that a Higgs like particle had been discovered by the ATLAS Collaboration and the CMS Collaboration at CERN. The aim of this Bachelor’s thesis was to use data collected by the ATLAS detector facility to estimate the mass of
The Swedish government has in July 2010 incorporated a legislation regarding the possibility to deduct a loss incurred by a non-resident subsidiary, from the parent company’s taxable income. This Law is based on the Swedish administrative court’s interpretation of the European Union Court’s judgement of the Marks & Spencer case and the Oy AA case. The law is in my opinion not completely compat
On the July 1, 2020, a new framework of rules regarding reportable arrangements was introduced in Sweden and at the same time a reporting obligation to give information about reportable arrangements to the Swedish Tax Agency (STA) was introduced. For an arrangement to be reportable it must be cross-border and include at least one hallmark. A hallmark is a characteristic in an arrangement which is
We present new maps of the Milky Way disk showing the distribution of metallicity ([Fe/H]), α-element abundances ([Mg/Fe]), and stellar age, using a sample of 66,496 red giant stars from the final data release (DR17) of the Apache Point Observatory Galactic Evolution Experiment survey. We measure radial and vertical gradients, quantify the distribution functions for age and metallicity, and explor
Den svenska sexualbrottslagstiftningen har genomgått stora förändringar över åren. Våldtäktsbestämmelsen har på olika sätt utvidgats och tvångskravet har sänkts med tiden. Syftet har delvis varit att förstärka och tydliggöra rätten till sexuellt självbestämmande och sexuell integritet. Detta är två begrepp som har varit återkommande i sexualbrottslagstiftningen under senare år. Trots detta har tvåThe Swedish legislation on sexual offences has been subject to major changes over the years. The provision of rape has in various ways been extended and the coercion requirement has been reduced over time. The purpose of the changes has partly been to strengthen and clarify the sexual integrity and self-determination – two concepts that have been recurring in the legislation on sexual offences in
Syftet med denna uppsats är att utreda rättsläget för barn som häktas och därefter diskutera hur det förhåller sig till barns särskilda skyddsvärde i straff- och straffprocessrätten. Jag diskuterar och reflekterar även över lagstiftningens eventuella brister, behov av förändring och förbättring samt hur förändringar och förbättringar i sådana fall skulle kunna te sig lämpliga utifrån ett barnrättsThe purpose of this thesis is to investigate the legal position for children being detained and discussing how that relates to children’s particular protective value in penalty- and criminal procedure law. I am also discussing and reflecting on the legislation’s eventual flaws, need of change and improvement and how changes and improvements in those cases could be appropriate from a perspective of
BackgroundNon-coding genetic variants that influence gene transcription in pancreatic islets play a major role in the susceptibility to type 2 diabetes (T2D), and likely also contribute to type 1 diabetes (T1D) risk. For many loci, however, the mechanisms through which non-coding variants influence diabetes susceptibility are unknown.ResultsWe examine splicing QTLs (sQTLs) in pancreatic islets fro
In addition to their hemostatic role, platelets play a significant role in immunity. Once activated, platelets release extracellular vesicles (EVs) formed by the budding of their cytoplasmic membranes. Because of their heterogeneity, platelet EVs (PEVs) are thought to perform diverse functions. It is unknown, however, whether the proteasome is transferred from platelets to PEVs or whether its func
Pancreatic islets are complex micro-organs consisting of at least three different cell types: glucagon-secreting alpha, insulin-producing beta and somatostatin-releasing delta cells. Somatostatin is a powerful paracrine inhibitor of insulin and glucagon secretion. In diabetes, increased somatostatinergic signalling leads to defective counter-regulatory glucagon secretion. This increases the risk o
Progresses in reconstructing Earth's history of biomass burning has motivated the development of a modern charcoal dataset covering the last decades through a community-based initiative called the Global Modern Charcoal Dataset (GMCD). As the frequency, intensity and spatial scale of fires are predicted to increase regionally and globally in conjunction with changing climate, anthropogenic activit
The Reference Values for Arterial Stiffness Collaboration has derived an equation using age and mean blood pressure to estimated pulse wave velocity (ePWV), which predicted cardiovascular events independently of Systematic COoronary Risk Evaluation (SCORE) and Framingham Risk Score. The study aim was to investigate the independent association between ePWV and clinical outcomes in 107 599 apparentl
