A new DNA variant in the promoter region of the human cystatin C gene has been detected by direct sequencing. The base substitution generates a newDdeO restriction site, thus allowing the design of a rapid polymerase chain reaction assay for analysis of this polymorphism in the population.
Utmaningar kring samarbete och effektivt utnyttjande av den tvärprofessionella kompetensen har observerats i svenska elevhälsoteam. En kommun har adresserat dessa svårigheter genom att implementera ett gemensamt ramverk, Systematiskt Tillsammans för Lärande (STfL). Syftet med föreliggande studie var att utforska hur ett sådant gemensamt ramverk upplevs av elevhälsoteamens olika professioner vad gäCollaboration and efficient use of multidisciplinary competence has been observed to be difficult in student health teams (SHT) in Sweden. One municipality has addressed these issues by implementing a common framework, Systematically Together for Learning (STfL). The aim of this study was to explore how this framework was experienced by the student health service professionals in relation to imple
To address climate change, global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in the residential building sector, accounting for 39% in Sweden, need to reduce. While technological improvements and behavioural change are two commonly used strategies, the former is limited by rebound effects that range from 15-20% in Sweden. Focussing on individual behaviour is imperative. While Psychology (behavioural-based) an
The fashion industry is a significant contributor to global environmental and social issues. But as a system, it is composed of different stakeholders that can work together to make a change. One of those actors involved are small fashion labels, which according to the European Commission, account for more than 90% of the workforce and produce almost 60% of the value within the textile industry (2
In this work, a first-order upwind and a high-order flux-limiter schemes for solving the advection–diffusion equation on unstructured grids were evaluated. The numerical schemes were implemented as a module of an unstructured two-dimensional depth-averaged circulation model for shallow lakes (IPH-UnTRIM2D), and they were applied to the Guaíba River in Brazil. Their performances were evaluated by c
To compare physical activity measures and their associations with insulin sensitivity, β-cell function and body mass index (BMI) between Iraqi immigrants and native Swedes.
The performance of eight fast-response methane (CH4) gas analysers suitable for eddy covariance flux measurements were tested at a grassland site near the Cabauw tall tower (Netherlands) during June 2012. The instruments were positioned close to each other in order to minimise the effect of varying turbulent conditions. The moderate CH4 fluxes observed at the location, of the order of 25 nmol m(-2
A combined search for the Standard Model Higgs boson with the ATLAS detector at the LHC is presented. The data sets used correspond to integrated luminosities from 4.6 fb(-1) to 4.9 fb(-1) of proton-proton collisions collected at root s = 7 TeV in 2011. The Higgs boson mass ranges of 111.4 GeV to 116.6 GeV, 119.4 GeV to 122.1 GeV, and 129.2 GeV to 541 GeV are excluded at the 95% confidence level,
A majority of the established systems for determination and optimization of cutting data are based on Woxén’s equivalent chip thickness, heW. In metal cutting theory and models, the equivalent chip thickness is of vital importance when the depth-of-cut ap is in the same order or smaller than the nose radius r. Woxén made considerable simplifications in his chip area model, that form the basis for
With the post-Kyoto climate negotiations underway, global emissions must be cut by 66% by, 2050 according to the IPCC, to prevent further damage to the environment. In order for this emission cut to be possible, all nations have to be a part of these negotiations. The Kyoto Protocol and the UNFCCC is the natural starting point for a new climate regime that must be established. Through a literatur
The Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive of the European Commission places the responsibility on producers to finance collection and treatment of waste deposited at collection facilities after 13 August 2005, on a collective or individual basis. For "historic" waste, put on the market before this date, producers are responsible for a proportion of their respective share of
The European Union is working towards creating a Common European Asylum System for the purpose of harmonizing the domestic asylum laws of its Member States and creating a system in which asylum status may be determined justly. The Reception Directive of 2003 is the EU legislation that, among other things sets minimum standards of health care for asylum seekers in EU Member States. All EU Member St
Syftet med studien var att utvärdera en metod för golfspelare att hjälpa sig själva till bättre prestationer under tävling. Undersökningen gjordes på 76 tävlingsspelare i golf i åldrarna 17-19 år. Hypotesen var att interventionen, skapad med övningen Three Blessings Exercise som inspiration, skulle leda till ett positivt tankemönster, vilket i sin tur skulle förbättra spelarnas tillstånd och/eller
Purpose: To find a suitable framework for the categorisation of management control tools as guidance for a purpose-oriented choice of management control tools. This is done by applying the iron triangle in the case of Activity-based costing (ABC) in the German public sector. Thereby the ABC adoption in the German public sector is analysed, including the discussion of purpose-oriented versus trend-
After the failure to respond adequately to the changing patterns of conflict and violence after the end of the Cold War, human security was popularized in the 1990s as an alternative concept to security more suitable to face threats to individual security. Ever since, the question about what human security should entail has seen much discussion. This paper examines the different discourses which i
Collaboration Software is widely used in internal communication in the companies today. Software itself enables the companies to use variety of media with different properties and capabilities to mediate the communication on different corporate tasks. The way companies use the communication media implies the overall company performance. This study empirically examines the general propositions of M
Denna uppsats, som är skriven på kandidatnivå vid företagsekonomiska institutionen vid Lunds universitet, behandlar användandet av konsulter. Det användande som uppsatsen är riktad mot är svenska företagsledningars användande av strategi- och organisationskonsulter. Uppsatsen försöker inte komma fram till om konsulter är bra eller dåliga. Istället försöker den hitta lösningar för företagsledningar
Längs Kaledonidernas östra erosionsfront finns den världskända bly- och zinkfyndigheten vid Laisvall (totalt 64 miljoner ton bruten malm) och mineraliseringen vid Granberget samt flertalet mindre malmkroppar av impregnationstyp bestående av blyglans och zinkblände som kristalliserat i klastiska bergarter. I äldre litteratur har mineraliseringsprocesserna och tidsspannet för mineralisationen diskutThe eastern Caledonian erosional front hosts the world-class Pb-Zn deposit at Laisvall (64 Mt mined) and Granberget mineralization, northern Sweden, along with several other smaller, related types of deposits consisting of impregnation mineralization of galena and sphalerite in clastic host rocks. Previous work have discussed the nature of the ore-forming processes and constraints for the timing o
I samband med en verksamhetsövergång aktualiseras överlåtelsedirektivet, vilket syftar till att skydda arbetstagarens anställning och de anställningsförmåner som är knutna till den verksamhet han eller hon arbetar i – oavsett vilken arbetsgivare som driver den. I svensk rätt har överlåtelsedirektivet inkorporerats i LAS och MBL. En särskild rättsverkan som inträder vid en verksamhetsövergång är etDue to a transfer of an undertaking, the Directive on transfers of undertakings applies, which aims to protect an employee’s employment and benefits related to the business – regardless of which employer that’s operating. In Swedish law, the directive has been incorporated into the Employment Protection Act and the Employment Co-Determination in the Workplace Act. A legal consequence of a transfer
This study explores author texts on public libraries in the United Kingdom between the years 2010 and 2018. The texts appear in a national public debate about the value, purpose and direction of the library service following a significant number of library closures and funding cuts. These were the result of the global financial crisis of 2007 and 2008 and the subsequent implementation of the auste
