Tidningen Gourmet har varit föremål för en medial blickfokus under våren 2003. Konsumentombudsmannen väckte talan mot tidningsföretaget Gourmet International Products Aktiebolag (GIP) för att ha givit ut otillåten kommersiell alkoholreklam riktad till konsumenter. Konsumentombudsmannen grundade sin talan mot GIP på det svenska alkoholreklamförbudet. Alkoholreklam har under slutet av 1900-talet omf

Sammanfattning Instansordningsprincipen är en förvaltningsrättslig princip som huvudsakligen medför att parterna i ett förvaltningsmål är förhindrade att tillföra nytt processmaterial i högre instanser. Principen är, emellertid, inte uttryckligen lagstadgad i Förvaltningsprocesslagen (1971:291), FPL. Istället är det upp till förvaltningsdomstolarna att tolka de uttalande som finns i förarbetena tiSummary The principle of the court hierachy is a principle within administrative law whose intention is to prevent the parties to add new case material in the higher instances. The principle, however, is not explicitly stated in the Administrative Court Procedure Act (1971: 291), FPL. Instead, the administrative courts are given the task to interpret various statements contained in the legislative
Sammanfattning Det civilrättsliga förbudet mot etnisk diskriminering i arbetslivet som har funnits sedan 1994 har resulterat i få fällande domar och har i tidigare forskning beskrivits som ineffektivt. Jag har i denna uppsats jämfört tillämpningen av diskrimineringsförbudet i arbetslivet med andra områden för att undersöka om det finns faktorer som påverkar effektiviteten inom arbetslivsområdet. Summary In 1994, Sweden passed a law prohibiting discrimination in work life on the basis of ethnicity. This Discrimination Act has led to few convictions and has been described by scholars as inefficient. This thesis analyses the courts’ enforcement of the prohibition of discrimination in working life compared to its enforcement in other areas of society. Critical Race Theory is used to problem
Individualization of Children: A Critical Discourse Study of Childrens' Competence in Public Texts on Social Care of Children The aim of this study is to critically examine and discuss overarching notions and discourses on children and individualization, with a starting point in public texts within the field of social work with children. The empirical material has been two SOU-reports (“Swedi
Implication of DNAJ co-chaperones in Neurodegenerative diseases General improvements of human life conditions at different levels translate into an increasingly growing life span expectancy of the earth population. This, however comes with the cost of an increase in neurodegenerative diseases which broadly increases in frequency with age. Most age related brain diseases such as Parkinson’s dis
Popular Abstract in Swedish SVENSK SAMMANFATTNING (SUMMARY IN SWEDISH) Hematopoes och leukemi Hematopoes är benämningen på den process vari alla blodceller genom hela livet kontinuerligt utvecklas i benmärgen, samt vid bildandet av lymfocyter även i lymfkörtlarna. Varje dygn bildas det ca 1012 nya celler i benmärgen för att ersätta uttjänta blodceller som dör och bryts ned. Ett litet antal stamcelWilms’ tumour gene 1 (WT1) encodes a zinc-finger transcription factor functioning as a key regulator in organ development. WT1 was first identified as a tumour suppressor gene due to its inactivation in Wilms’ tumour cases, a childhood kidney cancer. In adult tissues WT1 expression is restricted to few organs, but various forms of cancers express high WT1 levels, suggesting an oncogenic potential
1. To investigate further the release, localization and identity of a non-nitrergic mediator of smooth muscle relaxation in the female pig urethra, we studied the effects of drugs acting at alpha 2-adrenoceptors or K+ channels, the effects of capsaicin and chemical sympathectomy, and the actions of several transmitter candidates. 2. Electrical field stimulation (EFS; frequencies above 12 Hz) of sp
Background Hazardous drinking has been associated with an increased postoperative complication rate after surgery. Common complications include postoperative infections, cardiopulmonary complications, and bleeding episodes. Preoperative abstinence may to some degree reverse alcohol-induced pathophysiological processes and thus prevent postoperative complications. Objectives To assess the effect of
Popular Abstract in Swedish Diabetes mellitus är en samling sjukdomar som karaktäriseras av förhöjt blodsocker. Traditionellt har man delat upp sjukdomen i två former; typ 1 och typ 2 diabetes. Vid typ 1 diabetes förstörs de insulinproducerande β-cellerna i bukspottskörteln av kroppens immunförsvar och sjukdomen debuterar ofta tidigt i livet. Typ 2 diabetes, tidigare ofta benämnd ”åldersdiabetes” Inadequate insulin secretion is a central component in the development of Diabetes Mellitus, resulting from reduced pancreatic β-cell mass, as well as diminished β-cell function. Islet produced 5-hydroxy tryptamine (5-HT) is suggested to regulate insulin secretion and β-cell mass in rodents during pregnancy and in metabolically challenged states. However, the role of 5-HT in control of insulin rel
Bell’s palsy is an acute onset of peripheral facial nerve dysfunction. Despite extensive research the aetiology is unclear. The most prevailing theory is that reactivation of viruses such as Herpes simplex type-1 or Varicella zoster may cause Bell’s palsy. The natural course is favourable but at least 30% of patients will suffer sequelae such as residual paresis, synkinesis and/or contracture. The
Background Underweight and severe and morbid obesity are associated with highly elevated risks of adverse health outcomes. We estimated trends in mean body-mass index (BMI), which characterises its population distribution, and in the prevalences of a complete set of BMI categories for adults in all countries. Methods We analysed, with use of a consistent protocol, population-based studies that ha
Aims: This study surveyed individuals and caregivers of children who received teplizumab at stage 2 type 1 diabetes (T1D) to garner real-world experiences and their health outlook for the future following treatment with the first approved disease-modifying immune therapy for delaying the onset of Stage 3 T1D. Materials and Methods: This was a cross-sectional, observational, online survey (conducte
The recent decades have been characterised by a trend where the public sector's been inspired by several methods and strategies from the private sector. The public library is in this case no exception. In this context there are different perspectives on whether or not this will lead to a dramatic change of the role and values of the traditional public library. The aim of this master's thes
Skådespelaryrket kräver mycket av en människa både intellektuellt, färdighetsmässigt och fysiskt. Det förväntas också ofta av en skådespelare att vara musikalisk. Musikalitet kan yttra sig på olika sätt. I skådespelarsammanhang vill jag påstå att musikalitet kan finnas i allt från texthantering till hur man rör sin kropp. Jag är rytmikpedagog, men har också arbetat som skådespelare. Syftet med det
BACKGROUND: The risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection among health care workers (HCWs) is a concern, but studies that conclusively determine whether HCWs are over-represented remain limited. Furthermore, methods used to confirm past infection vary and the immunological response after mild COVID-19 is still not well defined.METHOD: 314 HCWs were recruited from a Swedish Infectious Diseases clinic caring for
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
