Of 3494 children with acute leukaemia diagnosed between July 1984 and December 2001, 136 patients (3.9%) with DS were identified.
Konflikten i den Syriska Arabiska Republiken började för mer än tio år sedan och ingen lösning är i sikte. Konflikten anses vara den mest dokumenterade konflikten någonsin. Trots att konflikten har pågått under en lång tid saknas det straffrättsligt ansvar för de begångna brotten. Det har gjorts försök, att genom användandet av international straffrätt hänvisa konflikten till den Internationella BThe conflict in the Syrian Arab Republic is ongoing since more than ten years, and there is no end in sight. The conflict is deemed to be the most documented conflict of all time. Despite the longevity of the conflict, there has been a lack of criminal accountability for the crimes committed. The international community has through the use of international criminal law attempted to refer the confl
With the rapid development of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) industry the demand for power has also increased. ICT tends to play a significant role in global greenhouse gas emissions. It was responsible for 10% of world’s total energy consumption in 2010 and is doubling in every 10 years [1]. Cellular networks are among the main energy consumers in the ICT field. To have an environ
Högsta förvaltningsdomstolen beslutade i mars 2025 att begära ett för-handsavgörande i ett mål gällande återbetalning med kupongskatt. Det ut-ländska företaget i målet menade att de inte var skyldiga att räkna ut sitt resultat enligt svenska regler, medan Skatteverket menade att det annars inte var möjligt att avgöra om det utländska företaget hade rätt till återbe-talning. Syftet med uppsatsen ärIn March of 2025, the Swedish Supreme Administrative Court decided to request a preliminary ruling in a case regarding repayment of Swedish withholding tax on dividends. The non-resident company claimed that they were not obligated to calculate their results according to Swedish rules, whereas the Swedish tax authority claimed that not doing so would make it impossible to determine whether the non
Arbetsgivarens intresse av en drogfri arbetsplats måste balanseras mot arbetstagarens rätt till personlig integritet vid drogtester, vilket skapar en komplex juridisk fråga. Uppsatsen undersöker processen stegvis för genomförandet av drogtester inom den privata sektorn ur en rättslig synvinkel. Från arbetsgivarens perspektiv granskas när och hur drogtester får utföras samt de rättsliga konsekvenThe employer’s interest in maintaining a drug-free workplace must be balanced against the employee’s right to personal integrity in the context of drug testing, creating a complex legal issue. This thesis examines the step-by-step process of conducting drug tests within the private sector from a legal perspective.

Cultural values and beliefs within the jazz community have intrigued social scientists for a long time. Being one of the oldest recognised subcultures, jazz has been celebrated for its socio-political ambitions as well as the complexity and aesthetics of the music itself. Being recognised as an outlet for fighting social injustices throughout history, the notable exclusion of female jazz musicians
The transition from InterBank Offered Rates (IBORs) to Risk-Free Rates (RFRs) represents one of the most significant shifts in modern financial markets. This transition addresses concerns about the reliability and transparency of IBORs by adopting benchmarks based on actual market transactions. However, this change has far-reaching implications for the valuation of complex financial instruments, s
Sverige har genomfört en ny lagreform som möjliggör användandet av anonyma vittnen. Syftet med lagen är att stärka vittnesskyddet och bryta tystandeskulturen inom kriminella miljöer för att förbättra möjligheterna att klara upp brott. Lagändringen innebär en stor förändring över hur den svenska rättstillämpningen har sett ut innan och väcker många frågor om rättssäkerhet. Uppsatsen undersöker vadSweden has implemented a new law that allows the use of anonymous wit-nesses. The purpose of the legal form is to strengthen witness protection and break the culture of silence within criminal environments, thereby im-proving the ability to solve crimes. This legal reform represents a signifi-cant shift in how Swedish law has previously been applied and raises many questions about legal certainty.
Abstract This master thesis investigates how more value can be created by digitally visualize the saved data of GGzE (Mental Health care Eindhoven). GGzE collects a lot of data about their clients and they believe that more value can be created from it. The Dutch government, as well as the European commission, is striving for more e-health. By 2019 the Dutch government wants 80% of the ch
This research is a critical analysis of a delay regime for multimodal transport, or door-to-door transport. At this day, there are no mandatory rules governing multimodal transport, but a process of creating a set of rules are pending both within UNCITRAL as well as the European Union. Due to the increased use of containers in shipping, multimodal transport has become more common. For this purpose
This thesis set the goal to contribute to the fields of diaspora studies and cultural studies from a media and communication studies angle by addressing the blank spots ‘white minorities’ and book use. White diasporas are nearly invisible within academia and very often ‘under the radar’ in society as well. Books are underresearched within media studies in favour of other media. On the other hand,
Olika skyddsförutsättningar har under årens gång utvecklats för modebranschen som ständigt är under förändring. Dessa immaterialrätter består främst av upphovsrätt och mönsterrätt. Skydden överlappar ofta varandra. Just skyddet för modeprodukter har varit under kritik de senaste åren, det har ansetts vara otillräckligt. Hur modebranschen bör skyddas mot efterbildning råder det delade meningar om. Various protection conditions have evolved over the years for the fashion industry, which is constantly undergoing change. These intellectual property rights consist primarily of copyright and design rights. The rights often overlap. When it comes to the protection of fashion products it has been under criticism during the past years and the protection that is offerd through law has been considere
Tekniken för millimetervågor har fått stor uppmärksamhet inom 5G-kommunikation tack vare att ett stort spektrum finns tillgängligt i frekvensområdet för millimetervågor. Men mm-våglänkarna lider av allvarlig bana-förlust och atmosfärisk absorption. Strålformning,, att skapa riktade strålar som kan riktas åt olika håll med hjälp av ett stort antal antenner, är en lovande lösning till dessa utmaningMillimeter wave (mmWave band) technology has gained a lot of attention in 5G communications, due to large amounts of spectrum being available in the mmWave frequency range. However, mmWave links suffer from severe free-space loss and atmospheric absorption. Beamforming, which generates directed beams with strong gain using multiple antennas, is one promising solution towards these challenges. In t
