Uppsatsens fokuserar på den mycket viktiga biförpliktelsen framkallande av försäkringsfall vid konsumentförsäkring. Ett centralt begrepp för tillämpning av reglerna om framkallande är grov vårdslöshet. Begreppet är inte definierat i Försäkringsavtalslagen, varför en undersökning av dess innebörd görs. Därutöver föreligger ett flertal andra biförpliktelser som försäkringstagaren ska uppfylla. Det r
Sexuella handlingar med djur är ett brott som fortfarande anses vara stigmatiserat och omoraliskt. 2014 återkriminaliserades sexuella handlingar med djur med argumentationen om ett bättre djurskydd. Därför undersöker uppsatsen de huvudsakliga grunderna för nykriminalisering och sätter djur som ett skyddsvärt intresse under luppen. Av undersökningen kan konstateras att djur ska anses utgöra ett skySexual acts with animals are a crime that is still considered stigmatized and immoral. In 2014, sexual acts with animals were re-criminalized with the main argument focused on improved animal protection. This essay examines the main grounds for re-criminalization with special consideration for the animal as a protective interest. Conclusive research strongly suggest that animals are to be consider
Första april 2018 trädde 3 kap. 4 § i skadeståndslagen ikraft. Lagrummet innebär att det offentliga under vissa villkor bär ett skadeståndsansvar för överträdelser av EKMR. Införandet av 3:4 SkL föregicks av en flerårig utveckling av ansvar för konventionsöverträdelser i HD:s praxis. Uppsatsen redogör för 3:4 SkL i förhållande till den första artikeln i första tilläggsprotokollet till EKMR – skydOn the 1st of April 2018 the new law of chapter 3, section 4 in the Tort Liability Act went into force. The law declares that the state under set provisions is liable for damages caused by violations of the ECHR. The law was preceded by several years of development of a convention-based responsibility in the case law of the Supreme Court. This thesis examines the new law in the context of the fir
Hedersrelaterat våld och förtryck har fått stor uppmärksamhet i samhällsdebat-ten under 2000-talet. Den ökade uppmärksamheten har resulterat i en rad åt-gärder från staten, däribland kriminaliseringar. För att en ny kriminalisering ska vidtas behöver den kunna rättfärdigas. I statliga utredningar och doktrin framförs kriterier och principer som bör vara uppfyllda för att en kriminali-sering ska va
A nebuliser is a drug delivery device administrating medication in the form of a mist inhaled into the lungs, and used to treat respiratory diseases or disorders. Daily sterilisation of the nebuliser is required to avoid bacterial growth, and to maintain a high functionality. The aim of the project is to investigate what an optimal design for a portable sterilisation method of VMT nebulisers could
Context: Due to early detection strategies, prostate cancer is diagnosed early in its natural history. It remains unclear whether all patients diagnosed with prostate cancer warrant radical treatment or may benefit from delayed intervention following active surveillance. Objective: A systematic review of active surveillance protocols to investigate the inclusion criteria for active surveillance an
Imaging plays a crucial role in studying and understanding cerebral small vessel disease. Several important findings have emerged from recent applications of advanced brain imaging methods. In patients with acute lacunar syndromes, diffusionweighted MRI studies have shown that the diagnostic precision of using clinical features alone or combined with CT scan findings to diagnose small vessel disea
Natural disturbances play a key role in ecosystem dynamics and are important factors for sustainable forest ecosystem management. Quantitative models are frequently employed to tackle the complexities associated with disturbance processes. Here we review the wide variety of approaches to modelling natural disturbances in forest ecosystems, addressing the full spectrum of disturbance modelling from
Domestication processes tend to release animals from natural selection and favour traits desired by humans, such as food-production and co-operative behaviour. A side effect of such selective breeding is the alteration of unintended traits. In this paper, we investigate how active selection for egg production in chickens has affected the visual system, in particular the optical sensitivity that re
Intra--arterial thrombolysis has become the most important minimal--invasive treatment option to treat acute lower limb ischemia. Although hemorrhagic stroke is a dreaded complication, it is considered beneficial to many fragile and elderly patients where vascular surgery is not an option. This review outlines current results after intra--arterial thrombolysis with low dose recombinant tissue plas
Childhood cancer five-year survival now exceeds 70-80%. Childhood exposure to radiation is a known thyroid carcinogen; however, data are limited for the evaluation of radiation dose-response at high doses, modifiers of the dose-response relationship and joint effects of radiotherapy and chemotherapy. To address these issues, we pooled two cohort and two nested case-control studies of childhood can
The Nordic countries have a long tradition of providing comparable and high quality cancer data through the national population-based cancer registries and the capability to link the diverse large-scale biobanks currently in operation. The joining of these two infrastructural resources can provide a study base for large-scale studies of etiology, treatment and early detection of cancer. Research p
Retinoid X receptors (RXRs) are heterodimerization partners for many nuclear receptors and also act as homodimers. Heterodimers formed by RXR and a nonpermissive partner, e.g. retinoic acid receptor (RAR) and vitamin D receptor (VDR), can be activated only by the agonist of the partner receptor. In contrast, heterodimers that contain permissive partners, e.g. liver X receptor (LXR) and peroxisome
The Swedish Family-Cancer Database has been the major source of population-based prospective data on familial risks on most cancers, including prostate cancer. In the present review, I focus on three lines of family studies with novel results. The covered studies originate from the same database with publication dates spanning a period of somewhat over 3 years. Age-specific hazard ratios (HRs) of
Objective. This study aimed to survey current Swedish practices for performing and handling transrectal ultrasound-guided prostate biopsies. Material and methods. A Swedish Urology Network (SUNe) was organized for the distribution of information, survey studies and research collaborations. A web-based questionnaire was distributed to the members in 2011. Results. In this first SUNe survey, 137 (91
