BACKGROUND AND AIM: Many multilevel logistic regression analyses of "neighbourhood and health" focus on interpreting measures of associations (e.g., odds ratio, OR). In contrast, multilevel analysis of variance is rarely considered. We propose an original stepwise analytical approach that distinguishes between "specific" (measures of association) and "general" (measures of variance) contextual eff
Objective: Screening for abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) defined as an infrarenal aortic diameter (IAD) of ≥30 mm reduces mortality, but managing patients with diameters of 25 to 29 mm is debated. Incorporating body surface area into the diagnostic criteria may improve the identification of those at risk of developing treatment-requiring aneurysms in this group. In a previous study, we defined a r
Den 1 juli 2018 trädde en ny lag om våldtäktsbrottet i kraft baserad på frivillighet. Överväganden kring ett införande av en samtyckesbaserad lagstiftning har pågått och omdebatterats under lång tid och två gånger tidigare har frågan utretts i 1998 års sexualbrottskommitté och 2008 års sexualbrottsutredning. Efter lagändringen 2018 är det tillräckligt med avsaknad av frivillighet vid deltagande i The 1st of July 2018, a new legislation regarding rape came into force, based on consent and voluntary participation. Considerations regarding a consent-based legislation has been ongoing and disputed, not least during the last century and twice before the question has been investigated in the 1998 sex crime committee and the 2008 sex crime investigation. Since the change it is no longer required
Despite national progress, stunting remains prevalent in specific regions of Rwanda, highlighting the limitations of coarse-resolution data for effective mapping and intervention planning. This study explored optimal spatial resolution and analytical approach to capture localised dynamics and the multifactorial nature of stunting. A cross-sectional, population-based study was conducted in the Nort
Background: Five risk factors account for approximately 50% of the global burden of cardiovascular disease. How the presence or absence of classic risk factors affects lifetime estimates of cardiovascular disease and death from any cause remains unclear. Methods: We harmonized individual-level data from 2,078,948 participants across 133 cohorts, 39 countries, and 6 continents. Lifetime risk of car

Surrogatmoderskap har sedan mitten av 1980-talet varit omdiskuterat i Sverige i och med att frågan om assisterad befruktning då uppmärksammades, men än så länge är surrogatmoderskap inte tillåtet i landet. I juni 2015 ska det dock publiceras en statlig utredning vilken ska uttala huruvida en legalisering av arrangemanget borde ske och hur detta i så fall ska regleras. Statens medicinsk-etiska rådEver since the middle of the 1980s when artificial insemination was given attention surrogacy have been much-disputed in Sweden, but so far surrogacy is not legal in the country. However in June 2015 a government investigation will be published which will convey whether or not surrogacy should be legalised and if so how the arrangement should be regulated. Statens medicinsk-etiska råd published a
Den digitala utvecklingen som skett de senaste årtiondena har lett till att internet idag är en nödvändighet för individer, men även samhället i stort, i västvärlden.

Internet, a gigantic network full of information, is today a necessity in Western societies and a world without it is unimaginable. In order to be able to navigate within the Internet and retrieve information, the usage of links is vital since it connects the information available on the Internet. The Internet user can therefor
Det svenska samhället har under längre tid sett ut så att skyddet för familjelivet, den privata sfären, vägt tyngre än ett offentligrättsligt styrande. Den rättsliga utvecklingen har dock under tid varit föränderlig och lagstiftaren har vägt in parametrar som att barn kan vara utsatta i familjelivet där de som skall ta hand om dem är de som utsätter barnen för skadliga handlingar. Enligt FN:s barnSwedish society has for some time looked to the protection of family life, private life, weighed heavier than a public ruling. The legal development, however, has been changing over time, and the legislature has weighed in parameters that children can be exposed in family life where those who must care for them are those who expose children to harmful acts. According to the UNCRC, the child's
The United Nations (UN) sanctions regime was developed during the 1990's as an instrument to induce compliance with Security Council (SC) resolutions. The use of more comprehensive sanctions was criticised since it resulted in collateral damage including humanitarian distress. This brought Members of the UN to convene seminars where UN staff, academics and experts discussed how the sanctions r
Den 3 november 2016 överlämnade utredningen sitt betänkande Översyn av skattereglerna för delägare i fåmansföretag (SOU2016:75) till Finansdepartement. Utredningens uppdrag bestod dels i att se över fördelningsreglerna i det så kallade 3:12- systemet, dels beskattningen i ägarskiften. I direktivet betonade uppdragsgivaren behovet av en reglering som förhindrar inkomstomvandling, samtidigt som intrOn 3 November 2016 the Committee submitted its report on tax for owners of closely held companies (Swedish Government Official Reports series 2016: 75) to the Finance Ministry. The Committee's mission partly consisted of reviewing the allocation rules in the so called 3: 12- system and taxation in ownership. The directive stressed client need for a regulation that prevents income conversion, w
Topology optimization with respect to eigenfrequencies is one example of an objective that has been studied extensively for small deformations. Few have however investigated this type of optimization for structures undergoing finite deformations. In this work, we thus expand the topology optimization formulations for eigenfrequency optimization to a nonlinear hyperelastic material model. When wo
Den 8 augusti 2018 hittas den hemlösa mannen Gica från Huskvarna död. Två pojkar, 14 och 16 år misstänks för att ha misshandlat Gica till döds, men endast den ena pojken kan åtalas. Den yngre pojken har inte uppnått den lagstadgade straffbarhetsåldern på 15 år, och kan därför inte ådömas en straffrättslig påföljd. Hur gör man bedömningen att barn under en viss ålder inte kan hållas straffrättsligThe eight of august 2018 the homeless man Gica from Huskvarna is found dead. Two boys, 14 and 16 years old are suspected of beating Gica to death, but only one of the boys can be prosecuted. The younger boy has not reached the 15-year boundary for criminal age responsibility and can therefore not be sentenced a criminal sanction. How to assess that children below a certain age can not be held lia
Uppsatsen behandlar det adopterade barnets ställning inom adoptionsinstitutet genom dess förändring över tid. Adoptionsinstitutet har förändrats i takt med samhällsutvecklingen och lagstiftaren har tidvis försökt lösa samhällsproblem med hjälp av lagstiftningen. Uppsatsens syfte är att undersöka hur barnets ställning har förändrats tillsammans med adoptionslagstiftningen. Adoption som ett institThis thesis examines an adopted child’s status within the adoption institute through time. The adoption institute has changed in line with the development of society and the legislator have occasionally tried to solve problems occurring in the society with the help of legislation. The child’s status is dependent on society’s perception of children and the reign values in the general public. The
Covid-19 har satt ljus på flera konstitutionella regleringar och principfrågor, bland annat frågan om vilka befogenheter regeringen har att meddela föreskrifter för att hantera kriser av det aktuella slaget. Vilken normgivningskompetens regeringen har och bör ha vid en fredstida kris för att effektivt kunna vidta åtgärder för att stävja krisen har diskuterats en del i lagstiftningsarbete och juridThe Covid-19 pandemic has shed light on several constitutional regulations and issues of principle, including the question of what powers the government has to issue regulations to deal with crises. What constitutional authority to state legal provisions the government has and should have in a peacetime crisis has been discussed in part in legislative work and legal doctrine. However, the issue ha
Amorphous Silica (ASi) is present in considerable amounts in most soils and serves as a (micro-)nutrient for many plants. However, our understanding of the response of this important nutrient pool to human or natural disturbances is still very limited. One of the reasons for this is the long time scales involved. This explorative study focuses on the effect of a historical agricultural system, cal
A major drawback of the defibration or refining process in manufacturing pulp is that of its large energy requirements. If the mechanics of the process were better understood, large amounts of energy could probably be saved. The initial defibration seems to be crucial for both the quality of the pulp and the total consumption of energy. Numerical simulations by means of the finite element method r
Popular Abstract in Swedish För att kunna simulera de fysikaliska fenomen som pågår i förbränning, krävs även en beskrivning av den kinetik som ingår i förbränningsprocessen. För detta ändamål utvecklas kinetiska modeller. En kinetisk modell är en lista med kemiska reaktioner och reaktionshastighetsparametrar. Modellernas tillämpningsområde begränsas av de valideringsfall och de fysikaliska parameThe simulation of physical phenomena occurring in chemical reactors requires the description of the kinetics involved in the underlying combustion process. Kinetic models are developed for this purpose. A software package, BlueBellMouse, has been developed to facilitate a deeper automatization and ease of simulation, reduction and optimization of kinetic models. A kinetic model is made of a list o
