Objectives To estimate absolute and relative risks for all-cause mortality and for severe COVID-19 in inflammatory joint diseases (IJDs) and with antirheumatic therapies. Methods Through Swedish nationwide multiregister linkages, we selected all adult patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA, n=53 455 in March 2020), other IJDs (here: spondyloarthropathies, psoriatic arthritis and juvenile idiopathi
BACKGROUND: The escalating global epidemic of obesity is of worldwide concern because of its association with several chronic diseases and premature mortality. Some subgroups seem to be more affected than others. The aim of this study was to examine whether the mean BMI (adjusted for age) and the prevalence of obesity (adjusted for all the explanatory variables) changed between 2000/01 and 2004/05
The use of pesticides and the lack of resources caused by the simplification of landscapes are often cited as the main drivers of the loss of wild bees. Landscape complexity has been shown to interact with local pesticide use in studies of the effect of these factors on the abundance and diversity of insects. But, to date, few studies have simultaneously investigated local and landscape effects on
We calculate the phase property of the reflection coefficient in two-terminal structures using a lattice tight-binding model. It is seen that, provided that there exist two coherent reflection paths, the reflection probability can be zero for certain electron energies. At these energies, the phase of the reflection coefficient shift abruptly by $pi$. Next, we study the reflection and transmissio
The Abraham Accords’ implications for peace in the Middle EastThe Abraham Accords, signed by Israel and four Arab states in 2020, were one of President Donald Trump’s most renowned foreign policy successes. They were also one of few of his administration’s policies that enjoyed bipartisan support in the US. But what type of peace has emerged following the Abraham Accords? In what ways do the Abrah
Kan civila som blivit måltavla för krigshandlingar försonas med sina före detta fiender? Denna studie analyserar muntligt gestaltade erfarenheter hos före detta lägerfångar som frihetsberövades i början av kriget i Bosnien-Hercegovina under 1990-talet och placerades i koncentrationslägerna Omarska, Keraterm och Manjaca. Efter kriget har fångarna tagit sin tillflykt till de nordiska länderna. StuIs it possible for civilians, who have been targets of war action, to reconcile with their former enemies? In this study I am analyzing the stories told by former camp-prisoners who were imprisoned at the beginning of the Bosnia-Herzegovina war in the early 1990’s. These prisoners were detained in the concentration-camps of Omarska, Keraterm and Manjača. The former prisoners took refuge in the Nor
Solar cells based on silicon are successfully harvesting solar energy in established and increasingly widespread solar panels. However, their efficiency is limited by the Shockley–Queisser limit. For certain applications where high efficiency is the key figure of merit, the use of multi-junction solar cells is desirable.III–V multi-junction solar cells exhibit the highest efficiencies achieved to
7 § LAS, som tidigare angav att en uppsägning ska vara sakligt grundad, har ändrats på så vis att en uppsägning ska grunda sig på sakliga skäl. Ändringen innebär att vid uppsägningssituationer som hänför sig till personliga skäl ska fokus numer främst ligga på avtalsbrottet. Den framtidsprognos som tidigare gjorts kring en arbetstagares lämplighet ska inte längre göras och en arbetstagares intress7 § of the employment protection act (LAS) was recently changed when it comes to what is required to dismiss an employee. The change means that when an employee is dismissed based on personal reasons, the focus will primarily be on the employee’s breach of the employment agreement and the severity of the breach. There will no longer be any consideration of the em-ployee’s interest in keeping their
Befintliga skatterättsliga principer grundar sig på föreställningar om att affärsverksamheter bedrivs genom fysisk närvaro. En stat kan därför, för närvarande, endast grunda beskattningsanspråk på en av de två huvudprinciperna hemvist eller källstat. Enligt den sistnämnda principen kan en stat enbart beskatta sådana företag som innehar någon form av fysisk etablering inom statens jurisdiktion. DigExisting tax law principles are based on notions that businesses operate through physical presence. Therefore, a state can only make tax claims based on either the residence principle, or the source principle. According to the latter, a state can only make tax claims against companies that have a physical establishment within the state’s jurisdiction. However, digitalisation and the progression of
In this thesis the enzyme Lytic polysaccharide monooxygenase (LPMO) is investigated. The LPMOs have captured the interest of the biofuel industry due to their ability to boost the breakdown of cellulose. Researchers have progressed in mapping out the mechanism behind this oxidative reaction. However, there are still many uncertainties concerning the intermediates involved and the role of certain a
The European Commission has acknowledged the lack of cross-border utilization of losses. Companies operating internationally want to have a possibility to offset losses against taxable profits at the same time or as soon as possible after the losses incurred. If no such possibility is at hand, a cash-flow disadvantage arises and also, it leads to segmentation of the internal market. The asymmetrie

During the last decade, upconverting nanoparticles (UCNPs) doped with rare-earth (RE) ions have been extensively studied in the field of biophotonics. Due to their unique properties of anti- Stokes shifted luminescence and with excitation and emission wavelengths optimal for biomedical imaging, they have become an interesting class of fluorescent contrast agents. An issue with downconverting fluor
De faktiska köpavtal som sluts inom näringslivet uppvisar idag en tydlig tendens till väsentlig avvikelse från den dispositiva köprätten avseende skadeståndsansvar för indirekta skador. Ur ekonomisk aspekt är friskrivning från denna sorts skadeståndsansvar klart motiverad, då det ger näringsidkare en tydligare överblick av de risker som är förknippade med avtalen de ingår. Samtidigt har flera rättIn this thesis Exclusion clauses concerning negligence – a study of sellers’ legal rights to limit damage liability in commercial contracts the author sets out to answer the question if it’s possible for a commercial seller to exclude it’s liability for consequential loss even in cases of gross negligence. The subject was raised as it’s clear that the actual sales contracts of today’s tendency t
Contact allergy (CA) is not uncommon in the population, including to various fragrance allergens. If not diagnosed correctly, allergic contact dermatitis (ACD) may ensue, because targeted allergen avoidance is not possible. The primary objective of the study is to estimate the prevalence of CA to seven fragrance materials in patients with suspected ACD across Europe. Based on the outcome, a conclu
Sverige har ur ett internationellt perspektiv kommit långt i dess arbete för att förebygga våld i nära relationer såväl som våld i anknytningsrelationer. I Sverige finns rättsregler för att skydda kvinnor som utsätts för våld av sin anknytningsperson genom att låta dem stanna i landet med ett självständigt tillstånd trots att förhållandet har upphört. Kraven för att uppbära ett självständigt tillsSweden has made significant strides internationally in its efforts to prevent domestic violence as well as violence towards women who have immigrated into Sweden to enter an intimate relationship. In Sweden there are legal regulations to protect immigrant women exposed to male partner violence by allowing them to remain in the country with a new residence permit of their own, even after the relati
