Den 17 november 2021 röstade Sveriges riksdag igenom regeringens förslag om en ny lag som innebär slopandet av straffrabatt för unga myndiga lagöverträdare vid allvarlig brottslighet. Vidare innebär förslaget att samma straff ska kunna utdömas till 18–20 åringar som till andra myndiga lagöverträdare, däribland fängelse på livstid. Unga myndiga har särbehandlats i svensk rätt i närmare 60 år, men uOn November 17, 2021, the Swedish Riksdag voted in favor of the governments’ proposal for a new law that abolishes the penalty rebate for young adult offenders who committed serious crimes. Furthermore, the law entails that the same punishment can be sentenced to 18–20 years as to other adult offenders, including life imprisonment. Young adult offenders have been treated differently than other adu

Purpose: This study examines how policies rewarding sustainable initiatives affect ESG scores in European firms and how these dynamics are influenced by a nation's Environmental Performance Index (EPI). It aims to contribute to the ongoing dialogue on sustainable and responsible business practices in Europe and beyond. Methodology: The study employs Fixed-effects Ordinary Least Squares (OLS)

Autonomous Vehicles (AV) are destinated to revolutionise people transportation bringing huge benefits in personal safety and environmental sustainability. In particular, Society Automotive Engineers (SAE) level 4 and level 5 cars are expected to reduce 90% of car accidents and the level of ecological print. However, to achieve those improve- ments an elevated acceptance level is necessary, which m

The subject of this thesis is derived from the scientific problem of the encounter between history and politics. The aim is to analyse the Sweden Democrats' use of history which manifests itself in their political rhetoric. Specifically, the importance of their interest in history in their struggle to attain dominance over the interpretation and arrangement of Swedish history as a whole. My pr

The paper examines the laws and policies that regulate corporate environmental practices in Ghana, with an emphasis on mining. In particular, the analysis of the legal and regulatory framework examines the extent to which it meets international best practices and standards of corporate conduct and the extent to which self-regulatory mechanisms are accommodated under the framework. This was accompl

Pregnant women often have questions concerning fetal effects of drugs but reliable information intended for them is limited. This study investigated how pregnant women perceive and value the scientific resource Drugs and Birth Defects (www.janusinfo.se/fosterpaverkan) and compared their opinions to those of health care professionals.

Oxygen-enhanced MRI (OE-MRI) biomarkers have potential value in assessment of COPD, but need further evaluation before treatment-induced changes can be interpreted. The objective was to evaluate how OE-MRI parameters of regional ventilation and oxygen uptake respond to standard pharmacological interventions in COPD, and how the response compares to that of gold standard pulmonary function tests.

Diamond-Blackfan anemia is a congenital erythroid hypoplasia caused by functional haploinsufficiency of genes encoding ribosomal proteins. Mutations involving the ribosomal protein S19 gene are detected in 25 % of patients. Enforced expression of ribosomal protein S19 improves the overall proliferative capacity, erythroid colony-forming potential and erythroid differentiation of hematopoietic prog

ObjectiveTo study the predictive value of biphasic ST-events for interventions for suspected fetal distress and adverse neonatal outcome, when using ST-analysis of the fetal electrocardiogram (FECG) for intrapartum fetal monitoring. DesignProspective cohort study. SettingThree academic hospitals in Sweden. PopulationWomen in labor with a high-risk singleton fetus in cephalic position beyond 36week

Abstract in Undetermined Background: The performance of glaucoma diagnostic systems could be conceivably improved by the integration of functional and structural test measurements that provide relevant and complementary information for reaching a diagnosis. The purpose of this study was to investigate the performance of data fusion methods and techniques for simple combination of Standard Automate

OBJECTIVE-Recent genome-wide association studies have revealed loci associated with glucose and insulin-related traits. We aimed to characterize 19 such loci using detailed measures of insulin processing, secretion, and sensitivity to help elucidate their role in regulation of glucose control, insulin secretion and/or action. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS-We investigated associations of loci identif

Swedish Health and Medical Services act states that good care should be given to the entire population on equal terms. Still studies show that access to care in Sweden differ related to for example gender and socioeconomic variables. One of the areas in Swedish health care that has attracted attention for potential inequity in access is Cataract Extraction (CE). Previous studies of access to CE in
