BACKGROUND: The transition to undertaking rehabilitation in the home or local neighbourhood calls for an extensive understanding of which aspects of the built environment are important for people with stroke.OBJECTIVE: This qualitative study aims to explore how home and local neighbourhood environments support or hinder rehabilitation for people who have had a stroke from the perspectives of vario
Capillary leak syndrome is a serious postoperative complication in neonates and infants after open-heart surgery for CHD. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between sternal opening width and the occurrence of capillary leak syndrome in patients undergoing cardiac surgery with delayed sternal closure.We retrospectively analysed the clinical data of neonates and infants (aged
Aim: This study investigated how human activities and local environmental variables shape tree assemblages (species composition in a defined location), comparing their effects on edible and inedible tree species. Three hypotheses were tested: (1) Environmental filtering impacts spatial beta-diversity more than dispersal limitation; (2) human activities significantly influence regional tree beta-di
Introduction: Neuromelanin containing cell loss, neuroinflammation and synaptic dysfunction are believed to contribute to Parkinson's disease (PD) pathogenesis. [18F]DOPA PET reflects dopamine storage capacity in the putamen, while midbrain off-target retention of [18F]RO948 is hypothesized to reflect neuromelanin. Objectives: To investigate associations between disease duration, cerebrospinal flu

At the end of August 1999, the local government council of Malmö city decided that the area known as Kvarteret Bilen would be made available for the European Housing Exhibition 2001 (Bo01-mässan). Kvarteret Bilen extends over approximately 80 hectars and includes the western parts of the Western Harbour area (Västra hamnen) of Malmö. Kvarteret Bilen as a whole, but especially the western sections
The carbon intensity is an important metric that provides a clear measure of the environmental impact associated with the electricity use. Carbon intensity of electricity use is differentiated into CO₂ equivalents per kilowatt-hour, which standardises the measurement by expressing the emissions of various greenhouse gases in terms of the equivalent amount of CO₂ based on their global warming poten
Ett rent strikt ansvar, eller ett strikt ansvar, innebär ett ansvar oberoende av vållande. Det utgör därmed ett avsteg från culpaprincipen som sedan en lång tid tillbaka har varit huvudregel i svensk skadeståndsrätt. Ett strikt ansvar är ingripande men har av lagstiftaren i vissa fall ansetts motiverat och då införts i lag. Av HD:s praxis framgår att ett handlande kan åläggas med ett strikt skadesStrict liability implies liability without fault. Therefore, the strict liability is a deviation from the fault liability that has been the general rule in Swedish tort law for a long time. Strict liability is interventional but has according to the legislator been justified in some cases. In those cases, the strict liability has been codified. Case law of the Swedish Supreme Court has shown that
Ansvarsbegränsningar är idag ett vanligt förekommande inslag i avtal, i synnerhet i kommersiella sådana. Syftet med inkorporeringen av en ansvarsbegränsningsklausul är vanligtvis att parterna söker reglera riskfördelningen sig emellan. Ansvarsbegränsningen sätter då en prägel på avtalsförhållandet, vilken många gånger tar sig uttryck i form av att skadeståndsansvaret begränsas i sig eller att ett Contractual terms that limit the liability are widely used nowadays, particularly in commercial agreements. The purpose of the incorporation of liability limitations is usually that the contracting parties want to regulate the allocation of risks between them. The liability limitation then sets the scene for the agreement, which often takes the form of the general liability being limited or a maxi
Rätten till avdrag för ränteutgifter begränsas genom den generella och de riktade ränteavdragsbegränsningsreglerna, däribland undantagsregeln i 24 kap. 18 § andra stycket IL. Regeln gör undantag för avdragsrätt när ränta betalas på koncerninterna lån när sådana uppkommit uteslutande eller så gott som uteslutande för att koncernen ska erhålla en väsentlig skatteförmån. Ränteavdragsbegränsningarna sThe right to deduct interest expenses is limited by the general and targeted interest deduction limitation rules, including the “exemption rule” in Chapter 24, Paragraph 18, subparagraph 2 of the Law on income tax. This rule excludes the right to deduct interest paid on intra-group loans if such loans have been made exclusively or almost exclusively for the purpose of obtaining a substantial tax b
Antalet rättsfall gällande oönskad publicering och spridning av andra människors privata material på Internet har ökat betydligt de senaste åren, med de s.k. Instagramupploppen 2012 som en sorts uppmärksamhetskulmen. Inget svenskt samlingsnamn som passar i alla dylika sammanhang har uppkommit och även om specifika detaljer skiljer sig åt från fall till fall, förefaller ärekränkningar förekomma somThe legal cases concerning unwanted online publishing of private material have experienced a significant rise in the last few years peaking around 2012 in Sweden, with initial assiduities around the issue being brought about by the “Instagram riots”. Up to this day, there is yet to be a collective term to entirely encompass these cases, and although the specific details differ between each case, t
This study is an environmental system analysis concerning the transport of water-borne lacquers from different lacquer suppliers to Swedwood furniture industries situated mainly in Eastern Europe. The aim of the study is to identify and calculate for environmental impacts to suggest possible improvement areas based on the achieved results. The possibilities of reducing water-content from the water
Under sommaren 2022 beslutade regeringen att tillsätta en utredning i syfte att reformera vissa delar av straffrätten. Reformerna avsåg att förebygga återfall i brott, höja nivån av samhällsskyddet samt skärpa restriktionerna för lagöverträdare som misskött sig. Ett av utredningens mest centrala inslag var förslaget om ett säkerhetsstraff – en ny typ av påföljd med preventiv karaktär. SäkerhetsstrDuring the summer of 2022, the Swedish government decided to initiate an inquiry with the aim of reforming certain aspects of criminal law. The proposed reforms sought to prevent recidivism, enhance public safety, and impose stricter measures on offenders who fail to comply with the conditions of their sentence. One of the inquiry’s most central elements was the proposal for a security sentence (“
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) is a group of synthetic organic compounds that has been used in a wide range of products, including fire extinguishing foam which represents the greatest source in Sweden. Their chemical properties make them toxic for humans and most living species, although research is still on-going to determine the specific toxicity of each compound in the family. A la
I takt med globaliseringen har det blivit allt lättare för företag att flytta vinster, vilket kan urholka medlemsstaters skattebaser. För att motverka denna utveckling har OECD länge arbetat med projektet BEPS (Base Erosion and Profit Shifting). En av åtgärderna i BEPS-projektet är införandet av obligatorisk rapportering. Inspirerad av OECD antog Europeiska unionen direktivet DAC 6, vilket SverigeWith globalization, it has become increasingly easy for companies to shift profits, leading to the erosion of member states’ tax bases. To counter this development, the OECD has long worked on the BEPS (Base Erosion and Profit Shifting) project. One key measure introduced under the BEPS project is the implementation of mandatory disclosure rules. Inspired by the OECD, the European Union adopted th
Diet is considered one of the key factors contributing to an increased risk of developing diabetes type 2. The rising prevalence of this condition is alarming and highlights the urgent need for effective nutrition-based strategies to alleviate an impending health crisis. As reoccurring hyperglycaemic episodes have been linked to an increased risk of becoming a diabetic, there is an opportunity for
