Min analys av verket Listening har fått mig uppmärksam på det jag kallar "vita fältet" i Peter Fries konstverksamhet. Detta är för mig ett abstrakt fält som förekommer allt mer uteslutande i alla Fries verk från 1990-talet fram till idag. Betydelsen av det "vita fältets" allt mer dominerande plats i verket har i min mening förändrat betydelsen av Fries verk som en helhet, dock
The aim of the study is to get a better understanding of leader's reactions in a crisis situation, and to examine whether locus of control and coping strategies can be related to leaders need for social support. The role of a leader in a crisis situation is complex and includes several aspects which must be illustrated to understand the leader's situation. Four leaders have participated in
The main purpose of this study was to examine, and illustrate, highschool social workers experiences of pupils with self-injurious behaviour. Self-injurious behaviour in this study refer to individuals who harm them-selves, with physical injury as consequence, without purpose to commit suicide. A qualitativ method was used and five highschool social workers, in the south of Sweden, were interviewe
I examine the impact of several determinants on foreign direct investments (FDI) by conducting a regional analysis with a particular focus on Belarus. I estimate a panel data model for 16 Central and Eastern European and ex-Soviet Union member countries in a cross-country framework over the 2002 to 2006 time period. The determinants chosen for the empirical model represent macro-economic and trade

Bakgrund: Det finns olika konstellationer av samarbete kring specifika uppgifter för att uppnå någon form av definierat mål. I imaginära samarbeten skiljer sig samarbetsprocesserna från mer formaliserade samarbetsformer. Imaginära organisationer använder varandras resurser och unika kunskaper i samarbetet, för att uppnå ett gemensamt mål. Inom forskningsbyn Ideon finns ett nätverk av aktörer som s
There are an increasing number of genetic and neuropathological observations to suggest that cystatin C, an extracellular protein produced by all nucleated cells, might play a role in the pathophysiology of sporadic Alzheimer's disease (AD). Recent observations indicate that small and large soluble oligomers of the beta-amyloid protein (A beta) impair synaptic plasticity and induce neurotoxicity i
OBJECTIVE: To perform an ecological study in an effort to generate questions concerning the preventive impact of various cardiovascular drugs on mortality from stroke and ischaemic heart disease (IHD) in the community, and to explore the association between sales of nitrates and mortality from stroke and IHD. METHODS: Out-patient drug utilization (sales) of blood pressure lowering drugs, lipid low
Popular Abstract in Swedish Vilka egenskaper var det som gjorde just pesten så fruktad av alla sjukdomar? Hur skiljde den sig från andra samtidigt grasserande farsoter? Hur spreds den? Och hur passade den in i dåtidens samhälle socialt och kulturellt? Det är några av de frågor som denna undersökning med fokus på Skåne 1710 - 1713 vill besvara. Mycket är fortfarande oklart om hur pesten uppträdde This study deals with Sweden’s last outbreak of the plague with focus on Skåne, where the epidemic raged for three years - from late autumn 1710 to late autumn 1713. This was a time of war, crop failures as well as other simultaneously occurring epidemics. The outline of this study can be summarised with the following points: This is the first regional analysis of plague in Skåne. All preserved b
AimsTo examine determinants for glycaemic control in primary care patients with Type 2 diabetes. MethodsIn a community-based surveillance of primary care patients with Type 2 diabetes, 190 men and 186 women were consecutively identified and examined for cardiovascular risk factors. Insulin resistance and beta-cell function were estimated using homeostasis model assessment (HOMA). Good glycaemic c
Popular Abstract in Swedish Eftersom politiska partier är kollektiva varor står potentiella partibildare inför det kollektiva handlandets problem. Därför kan vi tala om en "partibildningsparadox". Sålunda är det förvånande att icke riksdagsetablerade partier blev vanligare förekommande i svenska kommuner mellan 1973 och 2002. Utvecklingen ger oss ett unikt material på vilket vi kan pröva hypoteserSince political parties are collective goods, groups of people that demand new political parties face a collective action problem. Therefore, we can speak of a ?paradox of party-emergence?. Hence, it is puzzling that new parties became increasingly common in representative bodies at the Swedish local level during 1973?2002. This development provides a unique circumstance on which to test hypothese
Energy- and angle-resolved photoionization spectra of He irradiated by linearly polarized intense 810 nm laser radiation and several of its XUV odd harmonics are investigated. The angular distribution of the odd-order peaks, produced by single-photon ionization by one harmonic, is, surprisingly, broadened by the IR field. The even-order ones, due to two-colour, two-photon ionization, show at 90° l
The first checklist of the odonates from Guyana is presented, including 46 new species records. Literature sources are provided for all species and for the new records full locality data, color scans or field photographs, taxonomic and biological notes, and maps for those species whose distribution range is increased considerably.
Background Overweight, defined by body mass index (BMI), is correlated to complications following pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of body constitution, measured with different anthropometric measures, and diabetes on complications following PD. Materials and methods Patients who underwent PD between 2000 and 2015 at Skåne University Hospital were retr
In spite of the importance of the triglyceride aqueous interface for processes like emulsification, surfactant interactions and lipase activity, relatively little is known about this interface compared to that between alkanes and water. Here, the contact between triolein and water was investigated in terms of water inclusion in the oil phase and orientation of the molecules at the interface. Coars
Rationale: In symptomatic patients with COPD, the decision whether to initiate maintenance treatment with a single agent or a combination of long-acting bronchodilators remains unclear. Objective: To investigate whether baseline symptomatic status influences response to tiotropium/olodaterol treatment. Materials and methods: Post hoc analysis of the randomized OTEMTO® studies (NCT01964352; NCT0200
Aims: The aim of the study was to investigate the role of social embeddedness on and off the job in relation to remaining in non-desired workplaces (NDWs) and the development of mental health. Method: The study used questionnaire data from the Scania Public Health cohort (N=2410) that were collected in 2000 (T1), 2005 (T2) and 2010 (T3). Logistic regression models were calculated to probe how NDWs
The notion of quiet areas has received increasing attention within the EU in recent years. The EU Environmental Noise Directive (END) of 2002 stipulates that member states should map existing quiet areas and formulate strategies to keep these quiet. Quiet areas could play an important role in balancing densified urban development by ensuring access to relative quietness and associated health benef
Mine waste rock piles (WRPs) can contain sulfidic minerals whose interaction with oxygen and water can generate acid mine drainage (AMD). Thus, WRPs can be a long-term source of environmental pollution. Since the generation of AMD and its release into the environment is dependent on the net volume and bulk composition of waste rock, effective characterization of WRPs is necessary for successful re
