Under coronapandemin har åtgärderna mot smittspridning ofta diskuterats utifrån den så kallade proportionalitetsprincipen. Denna juridiska princip, som kan verka okontroversiell, innebär att myndigheternas åtgärder ska vara nödvändiga och lämpliga för att nå ett visst mål och att fördelarna med åtgärderna ska uppväga nackdelarna. Att ”lagom är bäst” uppfattas ju ofta som något typiskt svenskt, och

This paper explores the US antitrust investigation into commitment by Ford, Honda, BMW and Volkswagen to comply with emission standards set out by the state of California from an EU perspective. It takes a look at the DOJ’s investigation and explores how such a case would be handled under the EU’s legal framework. First, it briefly provides the background of the U.S. case, including some politica
Mechanical stress influences cell- and tissue-scale processes across all kingdoms. It remains challenging to delineate how mechanical stress, originating at these different length scales, impacts cell and tissue form. We combine growth tracking of cells, quantitative image analysis, as well as molecular and mechanical perturbations to address this problem in pavement cells of Arabidopsis thaliana

One major threat to Swedish commercial interests at the time were the ‘Barbary corsairs’, and the challenges wh
This article discusses and analyzes an unusual construction in Icelandic, with a plural pronoun in the singular reading and a directly juxtaposed or annexed NP (or DP), where, for example, vio Ólafur (literally "we.nom Olaf.nom") means 'Olaf and I'. We refer to this construction as Pro[NP]. Pro[NP] constructions have been reported for a handful of languages that lack a case system. Icelandic, in c
Even prior to COVID-19, biosecurity was a significant issue for tourism, especially at national borders. Since personal nonpharmaceutical interventions can be effective for an individual’s health and psychological resilience during a pandemic, understanding tourists’ biosecurity behavior is essential given the broader relationship with traveling during COVID-19. However, existing research has not
Introduction: There is an ongoing digital revolution in the field of Parkinson's disease (PD) for the objective measurement of motor aspects, to be used in clinical trials and possibly support therapeutic choices. The focus of remote technologies is now also slowly shifting towards the broad but more “hidden” spectrum of non-motor symptoms (NMS). Methods: A narrative review of digital health techn
Background: To compare effectiveness and safety of clopidogrel, prasugrel, and ticagrelor among all-comers with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and extend the knowledge from randomized clinical trials. Methods: All consecutive patients with STEMI admitted to Copenhagen University Hospital, Rigshospitalet, from 2009 to 2016 were identified via the Eastern Danish Heart Registry. B
The dynamic growth of the skeleton during childhood and adolescence renders it vulnerable to adverse effects of cancer treatment. The lifetime risk and patterns of skeletal morbidity have not been described in a population-based cohort of childhood cancer survivors. A cohort of 26 334 1-year cancer survivors diagnosed before 20 years of age was identified from the national cancer registries of Den
