Sedan vårdnadsreformen år 1998 blev den gemensamma vårdnaden allt viktigare i svensk familjerätt. Domstolarna arbetade aktivt med att införliva gemensam vårdnad som norm och skapa en ny rättstradition som talade för denna vårdnadsform. I och med 2006 års vårdnadsreform togs presumtionen om gemensam vårdnad bort. Lagförslaget innebar inga förändringar angående domstolens behörighet att döma till geJoint custody has been the main principle in Swedish Family Law since the custody reform of 1998. The Courts have ever since worked actively to implement joint custody as the main norm and to create a new legal tradition that advocates this form of custody.

Within the current global refugee crisis this paper emphasises the fundamental role of education in facilitating the integration of young new arrivals. It argues that a humanitarian problem of such scale requires a commensurate humanitarian response in the form of socially-just educational policies and practices in resettlement contexts within Europe. Utilising the theoretical concepts, ‘participa

The importance of carbohydrates in biological systems has become evident during the last fifty years. It is well known that pathogenic bacteria and viruses attach to glycoconjugates present at mammalian cell surfaces, and that this attachment is a prerequisite for the later stages of infection. Obviously, this interaction is interesting as a target for the development of novel ways to treat bacter

Background The prognosis in adults with congenital aortic valve disease is usually favourable; nevertheless, a number of medical and social factors might hamper long-term prognosis and quality of life. With a focus on physical exercise level, data from the Swedish National Registry on Congenital Heart Disease (SWEDCON) were analysed and variables associated with health-related quality of life in a

OBJECTIVE: Assessment of the predictive power of The Environmental Determinants of Diabetes in the Young (TEDDY)-identified risk factors for islet autoimmunity (IA), the type of autoantibody appearing first, and type 1 diabetes (T1D).RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: A total of 7,777 children were followed from birth to a median of 9.1 years of age for the development of islet autoantibodies and progre

Background Due to improved care, the numbers of patients with tetralogy of Fallot (ToF) are increasing. However, long-term morbidity and need for reinterventions are concerns and also address issues of quality of life (QoL). Methods Patients with ToF and valid EuroQol-5 dimensions questionnaire (EQ-5D) were identified in the national Swedish register on congenital heart disease. EQ-5D index was ca

Background Implementation in healthcare is often slow and poorly reported. Results include suboptimal outcomes and ad-verse consequences for patients. However, promising tools to remedy implementation speed and reporting already exist – such as the evidence-based, fast-track implementation model (Fast-IM) and the comprehensive RE-AIM (reach, effectiveness, adoption, implementation, and maintenance

Introduction: Successful aging is a multidimensional construct covering behavioral, social, and psychological domains of well-being. We aimed to identify well-being profiles and their association with mobility-limitation free survival. Methods: A total of 1488 healthy individuals aged 60+ from the Swedish National study on Aging and Care in Kungsholmen (SNAC-K) were followed-up for 15 years. Mobil

INTRODUCTION: The generalizability of neuroimaging and cognitive biomarkers in their sensitivity to detect preclinical Alzheimer's disease (AD) and power to predict progression in large, multisite cohorts remains unclear. METHOD: Longitudinal demographics, T1-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and cognitive scores of 3036 cognitively unimpaired (CU) older adults (amyloid beta [Aβ]-negative
