BACKGROUND Men and women with type 2 long QT syndrome (LQT2) exhibit time-dependent differences in the risk for cardiac events. We hypothesized that data regarding the location of the disease-causing mutation in the KCNH2 channel may affect gender-specific risk in LQT2. OBJECTIVE This study sought to risk-stratify LQT2 patients for life-threatening cardiac events based on clinical and genetic info

Research in this thesis show indications of discrimination in the recruitment process on grounds of ethnicity on the labor market in Sweden. It occurs both intentional and unintentional excluding in corporate structure. Continues discrimination can lead to alienation and exclusion from society and routines and this thesis has questioned if human rights due diligence is a promising way to frame and

Since the 1930s, a dance permit regulation has been in effect in Sweden. The dance permit is required for public dance events in Sweden, and police may take photographic evidence of patrons moving in sync with the music in a dance-like fashion if they believe that ‘illegal’ dancing has transpired in an establishment that may not have filed for a dance permit. If such is the case, then this evidenc

Vid 1900-talets början så såg världskartan mycket annorlunda ut jämfört med idag. Stora delar av världens befolkning stod under ett främmande, ofta europeiskt, styre och saknade inom ramen för detta system en möjlighet att påverka sin regim. Detta förändrades drastiskt under andra halvan av 1900-talet där nya organisationer, som Förenta nationerna, fick allt större inflytande och spelrum. Detta leDuring the 20th century the world changed drastically. In the first half of the century, large areas of the world were under, usually, European rule and the people living there lacked the ability to govern themselves. This changed radically under the second half and with new organizations, such as the United Nations, the global campaign for decolonization started. This was done under the banner of

A fundamental principle for democracy and the rule of law is that the courts are independent and impartial, which extends to the conduct of judges and lay judges during the trial. In addition, there is the expectation of the courtroom being an unemotional setting, and seeing emotional displays in lay and professional judges could lead to a feeling of partiality in the audience. The aim of this the

Since 2019, Icelanders can self-determine their legal gender. A third “neutral” option was also added. However, formulations in the Act allow only one self-determined change (Act on Gender Autonomy, 2019). Research on self-determination of legal gender has shown how acts can have limited effects since legal change is insufficient in addressing injustice. The separation of medical and legal concern

In this thesis, the territorial scope of patent law in space is analyzed. The purpose and the research questions are: Do patents apply in space, and can an inventor be protected against unauthorized use of a patented invention made in space? Patents are a national territorial exclusive right that is not applicable in space because there is no jurisdiction. The “Big Five” space treaties were es

Objectives: Several studies have shown mortality and suicide risk in substance use disorders, and autopsy findings with respect to the used substances. However, there seems to be a gap in the knowledge about substances misused in life and at death at the within-person level. Methods: All consecutive, autopsied patients during 1993 to 1997, who had been in contact with the Addiction Centre in Malmö

When studying in Brussels, Belgium, we first encountered the term “Scandinavian Exceptionalism”. We came to understand that many western countries are experiencing an increased punitiveness; high imprisonment rates, overcrowded prisons, relatively bad prison conditions as opposed to the Scandinavian countries. Penal excess and exceptionalism are often seen within the framework of welfarism and thu

A recent upsurge in rights talk has left a mark on many areas of law and social policy. Areas such as freedom of expression and hate speech that have traditionally been debated in terms of rights, as well as family law and the welfare of children, human trafficking and prostitution, national security and anti-terrorism legislation, economic policy and market development, to mention but a few, have

Inevitably, interpreting treaties potentially involve contentious results when the opinions of parties differ. The Convention on the Rights of the Child is no exception. What to include during the process of interpreting the Convention could therefore be controversial. Thus, the legal significance of the interpretative output of the Committee on the Rights of the Child, as understood through princ

Over the last couple of decades an increasing use of temporary organizations has been observed in public administration, a development sometimes referred to as projectification. This article explores the political-administrative rationality of pro- jectification by studying the initiation and implementation of a project funding system regarding social investments in a Swedish municipality.

The field of cadastre holds an inherent complexity much based on its interdisciplinary characteristics and the national uniqueness of each cadastral system. In addition, some cadastral terminology is vague or ambiguous, why omission of the explicit sense and context of a particular term may bring obscurity to international comparisons and analyses. The concept legal coordinated cadastre, occasiona

Järnbrist är idag ett växande problem, i både utvecklings- och industrialiserade länder, och uttrycker sig oftast genom att den drabbade individen känner sig trött och svag. Om sjukdomen däremot inte behandlas kan konsekvenserna bli större. Järn är nämligen en viktig komponent för produktion av röda blodkroppar, det vill säga blod, och fungerar som en syre-transportör till kroppens alla energidrivIron deficiency is the most common nutritional disorder in the world. It is the only nutrient deficiency that is not exclusively prevalent in non-industrialized nations but also in all industrialized countries. Despite this, the treatment for the disease is inefficient, long and associated with side effects such as constipation and nausea. In recent years several studies have highlighted the diffe

The shared laundry room (the “tvättstuga”) is a good example of a service system, where we don’t necessarily have to own a product to benefit from it. If we can share, we can also reduce our consumption & impact on the environment. In today’s society (in Sweden) the “tvättstuga” is a service taken for granted when living in an apartment building. It’s a necessity in many cases - people rarely
