I Tolkning av entreprenadavtal behandlas praktiskt återkommande tolkningsfrågor som aktualiserar tolkning av villkor i andra kontraktshandlingar än Allmänna bestämmelser. Detta sker mot bakgrund av såväl Högsta domstolens praxis som avgöranden från underrätterna. Boken riktar sig till praktiskt verksamma jurister samt ingenjörer och andra yrkesgrupper som regelbundet arbetar med entreprenadavtal.

Falkheimer and Heide further develop their integration of improvisation into crisis communication. They argue that improvisation is a way to develop innovative thinking. Falkheimer and Heide argue crisis managers must adapt to new circumstances and situations making improvisation a value asset. Drawing from the leadership literature, they develop the idea of strategic improvisation. Strategic impr

Background: Obesity among children and adolescents is a worldwide public health concern. Type 1 diabetes (T1D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) incidence are increasing, with heredity and socioeconomic status as possible risk factors. How these factors affect the risk of childhood obesity remains unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between obesity and parental diabetes among

Surrogacy has been a legal practice in Ukraine since 2000. Being a cheaper option (surrogacy in Ukraine costs around USD 50.000 compared to USD 100.000 in the USA), Ukraine became an even hotter spot after other popular destinations, such as India, Nepal, and Thailand, banned compensated surrogacy for foreigners. Moreover, this is not only the price tag that made Ukraine such an appealing option.

Regulation of insulin signaling by microRNAs in smooth muscle cells may contribute to diabetic vascular disease. The two smooth muscle enriched miRNAs miR-143 and miR-145 have been reported to target mediators of insulin signaling in non-smooth muscle cells. In this study, we aimed to determine the importance of this regulation in vascular smooth muscle cells, where expression of miR-143/145 is mu

Here we present a method to control the size of the openings in hexagonally organized BCP thin films of poly(styrene)-block-poly(4-vinylpyridine) (PS-b-P4VP) by using surface reconstruction. The surface reconstruction is based on selective swelling of the P4VP block in ethanol, and its extraction to the surface of the film, resulting in pores upon drying. We found that the BCP pore diameter increa

Objective: The objective was to investigate associations between the General Health Questionnaire with twelve sub-items (GHQ-12) and prospective five-year suicide mortality. The two commonly used GHQ-12 cut-offs (2/3 and 3/4) were analyzed. Method: The 2008 public health survey, which was conducted in the autumn of 2008 in Scania, southern Sweden, is based on a postal questionnaire answered by 28,

Background: Autoantibodies to bactericidal/permeability-increasing protein (BPI), BPI-ANCA, are often present in serum of patients with cystic fibrosis (CF), and correlate to airway colonization with Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The aim of the study was to investigate if BPI-ANCA IgA is also present in the airways of CF patients, and if its presence correlates with neutrophil counts, platelets, and P.

Increasing landscape complexity can mitigate negative effects of agricultural intensification on biodiversity by offering resources complementary to those provided in arable fields. In particular, grazed semi-natural grasslands and woody elements support farmland birds, but little is known about their relative effects on bird diversity and community composition. In addition, the relative importanc

Rationale & Objective: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is complicated by abnormalities that reflect disruption in filtration, tubular, and endocrine functions of the kidney. Our aim was to explore the relationship of specific laboratory result abnormalities and hypertension with the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and albuminuria CKD staging framework. Study Design: Cross-sectional in

Background: Following surgical repair of aortic coarctation (CoA) there is a risk for restenosis (reCoA), particularly in the first year of life. It was the aim of this study to identify reCoA risk factors by analyzing postoperative pre-discharge echocardiograms. Methods: Retrospective analysis of echocardiograms of children born operated for CoA in Sweden 2011-2017. Results: 253 children were incBackground Following surgical repair of aortic coarctation (CoA) there is a risk for restenosis (reCoA), particularly in the first year of life.

Objective. Age is a risk factor for organ damage, adverse events, and mortality in microscopic polyangiitis (MPA) and granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA). However, the relationship between treatment and damage, hospitalizations, and causes of death in elderly patients is largely unknown. Methods. Consecutive patients from Sweden, the United Kingdom, and the Czech Republic diagnosed between 1997

While structural models of empire have recently re-emerged in the theoretical debates in the field of International Relations, a lack of attention has been paid to peripheral actors therein. This is particularly true for the analysis of the peripheries’ relations with polities outside the imperial structure of which the peripheries are a part. In this article, I build a framework to better underst

Weak subdivision or fragmentation ability of deformed {100} (<100> // ND, normal direction) grains by traditional unidirectional (symmetric) rolling results in uneven deformation during tantalum (Ta) processing. Thus, a recently developed asymmetric cross rolling (ACR) is adopted in this work to enhance the subdivision of {100} grain in Ta sheets. Electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD), transmiss
