UnderhÄllsbidrag till barn - sÀrskilt om standardtillÀgg vid vÀxelvist boende
Ă
r 2013 faststĂ€llde HD att barn som bor vĂ€xelvis hos sina förĂ€ldrar har rĂ€tt till underhĂ„llsbidrag nĂ€r den ena förĂ€ldern har ett större ekonomiskt ut-rymme. Den förĂ€ldern kan dĂ„ Ă„lĂ€ggas att betala underhĂ„llsbidrag med stöd av FB 7 kap. 6 §. HD:s motivering utgick frĂ„n principen om barns rĂ€tt till en likvĂ€rdig ekonomisk standard som sina förĂ€ldrar. Samma princip ligger till grund för institutet standardtillĂ€gg, som innebĂ€r en rĂ€ttighet för barn att er-hĂ„lla ett förhöjt underhĂ„llsbidrag dĂ„ förĂ€ldrarna har det gott stĂ€llt i ekono-miskt hĂ€nseende. Denna framstĂ€llning syftar till att redogöra för barns rĂ€tt till standardtillĂ€gg samt att problematisera den rĂ€ttigheten i förhĂ„llande till HD:s stĂ€llningstagande avseende barns rĂ€tt till underhĂ„llsbidrag vid vĂ€xel-vist boende. Följande frĂ„gestĂ€llningar besvaras. Vilka omstĂ€ndigheter beak-tas i den bedömning som föregĂ„r ett utdömande av standardtillĂ€gg? Vem av förĂ€ldrarna avgör vilka kostnader standardtillĂ€gget ska anvĂ€ndas till? Kan en förĂ€lder, genom tillĂ€mpning av FB 7 kap. 6 §, Ă„lĂ€ggas att betala standard-tillĂ€gg till ett barn som bor vĂ€xelvis hos bĂ„da sina förĂ€ldrar? Huvudsakligen tillĂ€mpas traditionell rĂ€ttsdogmatisk metod med utgĂ„ngs-punkt i det positiva rĂ€ttskĂ€llematerialet. Det redogörs för rĂ€ttstillĂ€mpningen av institutet standardtillĂ€gg i hovrĂ€ttsavgöranden frĂ„n 2010 och senare. Av-sikten dĂ€rmed Ă€r att belysa aktuell rĂ€ttstillĂ€mpning av institutet. I uppsatsen framhĂ„lls att det framstĂ„r som mest Ă€ndamĂ„lsenligt att barn, som bor vĂ€xel-vis hos sina förĂ€ldrar, ska ha rĂ€tt till standardtillĂ€gg. Problematiken kring hur försummelsekravet i FB 7 kap. 6 § ska tillgodoses lyfts fram. Som lös-ning pĂ„ den problematiken föresprĂ„kas en reglering för faststĂ€llande av standardtillĂ€gg som bidrar till mer förutsebarhet. Ăkad förutsebarhet bör resultera i att en förĂ€lder, som har ett stort ekonomiskt utrymme, kan undgĂ„ att försumma sin skyldighet att utge standardtillĂ€gg. Vidare framhĂ„lls att det Ă€ven finns ytterligare mĂ„lsĂ€ttningar, sĂ„som konfliktminimering mellan för-Ă€ldrarna, som föranleder att det finns ett behov av mer förutsebarhet avse-ende faststĂ€llandet av standardtillĂ€gg. GĂ€llande rĂ€tt ger ingen enhetlig bild över vilka omstĂ€ndigheter som ska beaktas vid faststĂ€llandet av standardtill-lĂ€gg. I doktrin har föresprĂ„kats en modell för faststĂ€llande av standardtillĂ€gg som innebĂ€r att barnets faktiska kostnader ska beaktas. En sĂ„dan ordning stĂ€ller krav pĂ„ att barnets kostnader Ă€r etablerade och innebĂ€r sĂ„ledes en begrĂ€ns-ning av barnets rĂ€tt till standardtillĂ€gg. Den modell som föresprĂ„kas i upp-satsen innebĂ€r att standardtillĂ€gget faststĂ€lls som en procentsats av förĂ€l-derns inkomstöverskott, efter det att underhĂ„ll för barnets grundbehov av-rĂ€knats. En sĂ„dan modell bör leda till mer förutsebarhet eftersom den Ă€r tydlig och enkel för förĂ€ldrar att tillĂ€mpa. Genom att tillĂ€mpa denna modell kan en förĂ€lder, som har ett större ekonomiskt utrymme, undvika att agera försumligt genom att sjĂ€lv berĂ€kna det standardtillĂ€gg barnet har rĂ€tt till och utbetala motsvarande summa.Children are entitled to an economic standard that is comparable with the standard that their parents have. This principle is reflected in the childâs right to receive an addition to the average maintenance allowance, a so-called standard addition. In year 2013, the Supreme Court stated that a child who lives alternately with their parents are entitled to a maintenance allow-ance. By applying article 6 in Chapter 7 of the Swedish Code on Parenthood (CP) the Supreme Court stated that children who lives alternately with their parents are entitled to maintenance allowance if one of the parents has a larger economic capacity than the other parent. The ruling was motivated by the Supreme Court with the principle of the childâs right to an economic standard that is comparable with the standard that his or her parents have. This paper aims to explain the child's right to a standard addition and to problematize this right in relation to the ruling by the Supreme Court regard-ing maintenance allowance to children who lives alternately with their par-ents. In order to do so, the following questions are answered. What circum-stances are taken into account when determining the standard addition? Which parent determines what costs the standard addition is to be used for? Can a parent, through the application of article 6 in Chapter 7 of the CP, be required to pay a standard addition to a child who lives alternately with his or her parents? The methodology used in this paper is classical legal method. Cases pro-nounced by the Courts of Appeal since 2010 and later are presented in order to give the reader an up-to-date perspective on how Swedish courts apply the rules on standard addition. In the analysis of this paper it is found to be most efficient to include the standard addition in the right for children who lives alternately with their parents to receive maintenance allowance. How-ever, there is the issue of fulfilling the criteria of negligence set in article 6 in Chapter 7 of the CP. This issue may be resolved through the use of a dif-ferent method for determining the standard addition, which results in more predictability. Through implementing such a method, one would also ac-complish the objective to minimise conflicts among separated parents. The current established law gives a method that ends in unpredictable results and therefore creates a platform for disputes between parents. Legal doctrine have presented a method for determining the standard addi-tion where the childâs actual costs for recreational activities are being used as a guideline on how much standard addition a child is entitled to. Such a method requires that the child has established costs and therefore limits the childâs right to a standard addition. Instead, another method is argued for which lets the standard addition represent a percentage of the most wealthy parentÂŽs surplus of income, where the basic maintenance allowance has been deducted. Such a method for determining the standard addition would result in more predictability and it would also enable the parent, who has a larger economic capacity, to calculate the standard addition in advance. The parent can thereby avoid neglecting his or her obligation to provide the child with a standard addition

Developing rights-based standards for children having tests, treatments, examinations and interventions: using a collaborative, multi-phased, multi-method and multi-stakeholder approach to build consensus.
Children continue to experience harm when undergoing clinical procedures despite increased evidence of the need to improve the provision of child-centred care. The international ISupport collaboration aimed to develop standards to outline and explain good procedural practice and the rights of children within the context of a clinical procedure. The rights-based standards for children undergoing tests, treatments, investigations, examinations and interventions were developed using an iterative, multi-phased, multi-method and multi-stakeholder consensus building approach. This consensus approach used a range of online and face to face methods across three phases to ensure ongoing engagement with multiple stakeholders. The views and perspectives of 203 children and young people, 78 parents and 418 multi-disciplinary professionals gathered over a two year period (2020-2022) informed the development of international rights-based standards for the care of children having tests, treatments, examinations and interventions. The standards are the first to reach international multi-stakeholder consensus on definitions of supportive and restraining holds.   Conclusion: This is the first study of its kind which outlines international rights-based procedural care standards from multi-stakeholder perspectives. The standards offer health professionals and educators clear evidence-based tools to support discussions and practice changes to challenge prevailing assumptions about holding or restraining children and instead encourage a focus on the interests and rights of the child. What is Known: ⹠Children continue to experience short and long-term harm when undergoing clinical procedures despite increased evidence of the need to improve the provision of child-centred care. ⹠Professionals report uncertainty and tensions in applying evidence-based practice to children's procedural care. What is New: ⹠This is the first study of its kind which has developed international rights-based procedural care standards from multi-stakeholder perspectives. ⹠The standards are the first to reach international multi-stakeholder consensus on definitions of supportive and restraining holds
New genetic loci link adipose and insulin biology to body fat distribution.
Body fat distribution is a heritable trait and a well-established predictor of adverse metabolic outcomes, independent of overall adiposity. To increase our understanding of the genetic basis of body fat distribution and its molecular links to cardiometabolic traits, here we conduct genome-wide association meta-analyses of traits related to waist and hip circumferences in up to 224,459 individuals. We identify 49 loci (33 new) associated with waist-to-hip ratio adjusted for body mass index (BMI), and an additional 19 loci newly associated with related waist and hip circumference measures (PÂ <Â 5Â ĂÂ 10(-8)). In total, 20 of the 49 waist-to-hip ratio adjusted for BMI loci show significant sexual dimorphism, 19 of which display a stronger effect in women. The identified loci were enriched for genes expressed in adipose tissue and for putative regulatory elements in adipocytes. Pathway analyses implicated adipogenesis, angiogenesis, transcriptional regulation and insulin resistance as processes affecting fat distribution, providing insight into potential pathophysiological mechanisms

ted a total of 103 reports on glycan distributions. The
principal objective of this study was to report and compare
results for the full range of analytical methods presently
used in the glycosylation analysis of mAbs. Therefore,
participation was unrestricted, with laboratories
choosing their own measurement techniques. Protein glycosylation
was determined in various ways, including at
the level of intact mAb, protein fragments, glycopeptides,
or released glycans, using a wide variety of methods for
derivatization, separation, identification, and quantification.
Consequently, the diversity of results was enormous,
with the number of glycan compositions identified by
each laboratory ranging from 4 to 48. In total, one hundred
sixteen glycan compositions were reported, of which 57
compositions could be assigned consensus abundance
values. These consensus medians provide communityderived
values for NISTmAb PS. Agreement with the consensus
medians did not depend on the specific method or
laboratory type. The study provides a view of the current
state-of-the-art for biologic glycosylation measurement
and suggests a clear need for harmonization of glycosylation
analysis methods. Molecular & Cellular Proteomics

Content Management Systems â Business effects of an implementation
This thesis was performed at the business areas of Volvo Group where we evaluated the business effects from an out-of-the-box content management system (CMS) implementation. A CMS helps an organization to collect, support, organize and publish information on the Internet, intranet and extranet. Our purpose with this thesis was to evaluate a CMS implementation and to compile a model for CMS evaluation to be able to show the business effects generated to the organization by the CMS. To compile a model we studied literature
on CMS and evaluation of IS/IT-investments. Our model was customized and consisted of Observed CMS business effects, CMS business effects and impact, IS/IT-investment evaluation and Additional IS/IT-investment evaluation. The conclusion provided to us by our evaluation model was that the positive business effects from a CMS implementation are âeffective work processâ, âcontent policyâ, âtogethernessâ, âreduced hosting costsâ, âreuse of contentâ, âincreased web presenceâ and the negative are âlow flexibilityâ
