Kopplingsförbehåll och dess relation till konkurrensrätten och förbudet mot missbruk av dominerande ställning är väl studerat. Något som dock sätter fenomenet i en ny kontext är dess förekomst inom marknaden för digitala plattformar. Detta har nyligen förts fram i ljuset med anledning av den utredning som Europeiska Kommissionen bedriver om företaget Meta och deras digitala plattform Facebook MarkTying and its relation to competition law and the prohibition on abuse of a dominant position is well-studied.

This has recently been brought to light in connection with the investigation conducted by the European Commission concerning the company Meta and their digital platform Facebook M

This paper discusses new improvements of a form-based algorithm, which is used to estimate flow distribution over a continuous surface. In the new form- based algorithm (IFBFD), cells in a DEM are classified into five different classes. The classes are Peaks, Complicated, Sinks, Flats and Undisturbed cells. The method of how to estimate the flow distribution from each cell depends on its class. Es

Network analysis using geographical information system (GIS) applications has frequently been used in healthcare planning to investigate a population's accessibility to professional c

We provide new evidence on the long-run labor market penalty of teenage overweight and obesity using unique and large-scale data on 150,000 male siblings from the Swedish military enlistment.

Background: Many studies investigated factors associated with overuse of Emergency Department (ED) by older people. However, there is little evidence of how a better access to long-term care services can affect ED visit rates. Therefore, we estimated the association between ED use and contextual (distance to closest ED), need (priority level at admission and care deprivation), predisposing (socio-

Through reflections about a case study concerning an unfeasible, planned research study on nurses’ working days during the COVID-19 pandemic, the article aims to describe and discuss legal and ethical challenges when conducting European-based research together with nurses in third countries.

Introduction: The use of real-world data offers a possibility to perform large-scale epidemiological studies in actual clinical settings. Despite their many advantages, administrative databases were not designed to be used in research, and the validation of diagnoses and treatments in administrative databases is needed.
