Den som är yngre än 18 år stadgas vara omyndig enligt gällande rätt, men den som är 15 år gammal kan bli föremål för straffrättsliga påföljder om den begått ett brott. Enligt gällande rätt bör dock straffrättsliga påföljder dömas ut mycket restriktivt när lagöverträdare är mellan 15 och 17 år, eftersom vårdande åtgärder angetts erhålla företräde. Enligt barnkonventionen, vilken gäller som svensk lAccording to the Swedish Parental Code (1949:381), chapter 9, section 1, a person below the age of eighteen years is considered a minor. But according to the Swedish Penal Code (1962:700), chapter 1, section 6, a person above the age of fifteen may be subject to sanctions if he or she has committed a crime. According to the Convention on the Rights of the Child, which was incorporated as Swedish l

Den första januari 2020 trädde barnkonventionen i kraft som svensk lag. Två av konventionens grundläggande principer är barnets bästa och barnets rätt att komma till tals. Principerna är aktuella vid alla frågor som rör barn, exempelvis vid beslut i vårdnadstvister. Ett syfte med denna uppsats är att undersöka om Sverige uppfyller sina åtaganden enligt barnkonventionen vid vårdnadsrelaterade tviOn the first of January 2020 the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC) came into force as Swedish law. The best interest of the child, in Article 3, and the child’s right to be heard, in Article 12, are two fundamental principles of the CRC. The principles are relevant in all questions concerning children, with one important aspect being custody disputes. One of the aims of t

This paper aims at investigating the determinants of female farmers access to Agrarian Extension Services in Ethiopia, where extension services represent a critical tool for the development of the agrarian sector. Despite the country’s efforts to develop a gender-responsive extension system, several bottlenecks are negatively driving down women’s access to these services. By reviewing previous

The Milky Way harbors a supermassive black hole (SMBH) at its dynamical center. Surrounding the SMBH is a dense nuclear star cluster (NSC) which is believed to include a binary population. Beyond $0.1\mathrm{pc}$ from the SMBH, Eccentric-Kozoai Lidov oscillations are suppressed by general relativity precession, and the dynamical evolution of binaries are completely dominated by encounters with oth

This paper contains a joint ESHG/ASHG position document with recommendations regarding responsible innovation in prenatal screening with non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT). By virtue of its greater accuracy and safety with respect to prenatal screening for common autosomal aneuploidies, NIPT has the potential of helping the practice better achieve its aim of facilitating autonomous reproductive

Hematologic malignancies are characterized by fusion genes of biological/clinical importance. Immortalized cell lines with such aberrations are today widely used to model different aspects of leukemogenesis. Using cDNA microarrays, we determined the gene expression profiles of 40 cell lines as well as of primary leukemias harboring 11q23/MLL rearrangements, t(1;19)[TCF3/PBX1], t(12;21)[ETV6/RUNX1]

All ten LIGO/Virgo binary black hole (BH-BH) coalescences reported following the O1/O2 runs have near-zero effective spins. There are only three potential explanations for this. If the BH spin magnitudes are large, then: (i) either both BH spin vectors must be nearly in the orbital plane or (ii) the spin angular momenta of the BHs must be oppositely directed and similar in magnitude. Then there is

Developments in the understanding of language disorders and the progression of clinical practice for children with developmental language disorder (DLD) in Sweden started with a focus on speech, with a gradual widening of focus towards other aspects of language skills – grammar, semantics, comprehension and pragmatics. Alfhild Tamm (1876–1959) was a pioneer in the field, who brought attention to t

Due to a general shift in manufacturing paradigm from mass production towards mass customization, reconfigurable automation technologies, such as robots, are required.

Histological grade is one of the most commonly used prognostic factors for patients diagnosed with breast cancer. However, conventional grading has proven technically challenging, and up to 60% of the tumors are classified as histological grade 2, which represents a heterogeneous cohort less informative for clinical decision making. In an attempt to study and extend the molecular puzzle of histolo

X-rays allow to non-destructively investigate biological, chemical or physical processes at thenano-scale. Their high penetration depth in matter allows to investigate samples even in-side sample environments, which would be difficult with complementary methods such astransmission electron microscopy (TEM).

We have implemented a self-contained package for DNA microarray analysis in R. The package is named aroma and is formerly known as com.braju.sma. The purpose of the package is to provide end-users with easy access to the latest statistical tools and methods, to provide other statisticians with a structured platform to develop and test new analysis methods, and to make our methods available to an a

Aims/hypotheses: Smoking and use of smokeless tobacco (snus) are associated with an increased risk of type 2 diabetes. We investigated whether smoking and snus use increase the risk of latent autoimmune diabetes in adults (LADA) and elucidated potential interaction with HLA high-risk genotypes. Methods: Analyses were based on Swedish case–control data (collected 2010–2019) with incident cases of L

Avhandlingens syfte är att kartlägga och analysera fenomenet manliga sexarbetare, specifikt män som säljer sex till andra män, i Italien och Sverige. Medan kvinnors sexarbete har studerats av många forskare runt om i världen, har den manliga sidan av detta fenomen inte uppmärksammats i samma grad. Kunskapsluckan inom forskningen speglar en mer generell osynlighet eller brist på förståelse för dessThis research aims to map and analyse the phenomenon of male sex workers (specifically men who sell sex to other men) in Italy and Sweden. While female sex work has been studied by several scholars worldwide, there is a lack of attention on the male side of the phenomenon. This gap in the academic literature mirrors a more general “invisibility” and “misconception” of the issue in other domains: i

Importance: Despite the large health burden, reliable data on sepsis epidemiology are lacking; studies using International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems (ICD)-coded hospital discharge diagnosis for sepsis identification suffer from limited sensitivity. Also, ICD data do not allow investigation of underlying pathogens and antimicrobial resistance. Objectives: To

Learning outcomes: This case study covers different concepts related to leadership. It should help students analyze business situations from a leader’s perspective. By the end of this case study, students would be able to understand the role and the characteristics of leadership during a crisis using the 11 dimensions of character framework, map leadership personalities using the HEXACO model to u

Background: There is no consensus or clinical guidelines for screening routines of autoimmune disease in individuals with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA), since results are conflicting whether the risk for such conditions is increased or not among individuals with JIA. The aim of this study was to investigate if the frequency of comorbid autoimmune conditions is increased after JIA diagnosis i

Förevarande uppsats behandlar vårdnadsregleringen i 6 kap. föräldrabalken (1949:381) och huvudsakligen principen om barnets bästa. Den finns i 6 kap. 2 a § FB som stadgar att barnets bästa skall vara avgörande för alla beslut om vårdnad. Att objektivt fastställa vad som är barnets bästa är idag inte möjligt. Vissa riktlinjer för domstolens bedömning finns i lag och förarbeten. Men lagstiftaren har

Spillover effects and systemic risk contribution of institutions, as measured by their CoVaR and delta-CoVaR respectively, is one way of assessing risk both for an institution in isolation, as well as for regulators and the economy as a whole. CoVaR is the q%-VaR of an institution conditional on another institution already being at its q%-VaR level, whereas delta-CoVaR measures each institution’s
