FN:s råd för mänskliga rättigheter har flera gånger uppmärksammat det växande problemet med juridiska trakasserier mot journalister i världen. I ett fungerande demokratiskt samhälle är det viktigt att skydda så väl yttrande- som pressfrihet. Rådet har betonat att regler kring ärekränkning utnyttjas för att tysta ner den offentlig debatten och granskningen av makten. Vanligtvis går den här bestraffThe UN Human Rights Council has several times addressed the expanding issue of judicial harassments against journalists around the world.

With the number of confirmed exoplanets having increased tenfold over the last ten years, we now know that many different types of exoplanets exist. Modern telescopes, both ground- and space-based, like the Very Large Telescope (VLT) or the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) will drive forward the

Frågan om kriminaliseringen av köp av sexuella tjänster är med jämna mellanrum är uppe för diskussion och är därför ett ständigt aktuellt ämne. Efter 2018 års sexualbrottsreform går gränsen för ansvar för våldtäkt vid bristande frivillighet.

Denna uppsats syftar därför till att utreda hur de tvåThe criminalization of purchasing of sex is always up for debate and therefore it is constantly a relevant subject. Since the 2018th sexual crime reform, the limit for criminal liability for rape has been the lack of voluntariness. The reform thus meant an extended possibility to convict for rape in general as well as in relation to the purchase of sex. Therefore, the aim of this essay is to inves

During the summer of 2013, A-hus will deliver housing in four floors to Derome Mark & Bostad exploiting land in Svedala. One of the technical challenges in these houses is to design the connection between the two outer wall elements and the floor structure. The current proposal is to connect the three elements using a 400 mm long screw that is toe-screwed through all three elements. This metho

This study investigated the “relationship between tree species composition and phenology extracted from satellite data in Swedish forests”. The proposed method investigated in this study aims at mapping the fractional composition of deciduous/coniferous tree species and also the fractional composition of Norway spruce (Picea abies) and several pine (Pinus sp.). The fractions can then be used to cl

I svensk lagstiftning är en samförståndslösning något som eftersträvas och anses vara barnets bästa. På flera ställen i vår lagbok, bland annat i Föräldrabalken och i Socialtjänstlagen, finns regleringar vad domare och socialtjänstemän är skyldiga att göra för att underlätta en samförståndslösning. Även i Norge ses samförståndslösningar som något positivt. Förutom de frivilliga samtalen på socialkIn Sweden, legislation has opened up to focus on finding an amicable solution that is in the best interest of the child.

Akut hjärtsjukdom, som bland annat innefattar hjärtinfarkt och vissa typer av kärlkramp, utgör idag en ledande orsak till lidande och död i världen. På svenska akutmottagningar söker varje år cirka 180 000 patienter för bröstsmärta, vilket kan vara ett symtom på någon av ovanstående sjukdomar. För att snabbt komma fram till rätt diagnos ska ansvarig läkare väga samman patientens sjukdomshistoria, Introduction: There is a need for risk stratification of emergency department (ED) chest pain patients. The Global Registry of Acute Coronary Events risk score (GRACE RS) predicts adverse events in patients with confirmed acute coronary syndrome (ACS), and has been validated on unselected ED patients with chest pain. Clinical gestalt is the unstructured overall clinical assessment, based on the ph

Popular science summary: Cancer is genetic disease arising due to mutations in our genome. Gene fusions are one type of mutation that has a strong impact on tumor development. They are often characteristic for specific tumor types and can therefore be used a diagnostic tool. The identification of new gene fusions have, in the recent years, been highly successful using a newly developed technique

Barn som upplever våld i hemmet har innan 2021 inte haft ett straffrättsligt skydd i svensk lag. Det finns studier som visar att var tionde barn i Sverige någon gång har upplevt våld mellan närstående. Situationen där vuxna utövar våld i vad som ska vara barnets tryggaste zon, kan ge förödande konsekvenser, både fysiskt som psykiskt.

Prostitution as such is not seen as a human rights violation today. Trafficking and so-called ‘enforced prostitution’ are on the other hand seen as serious abuses of fundamental rights. The purpose of this thesis is to investigate and a
