Syfte: Vi undersöker vilka barriärer teknologstudenter upplever mot entreprenörskap och hur universitetet och individerna kan påverka dessa. Metod: I denna studie har vi använt oss av kvalitativ metod. Det empiriska underlaget har samlats in via semistrukturerade intervjuer med 15 teknologstudenter vid LTH. Teoretiska perspektiv: Vi har huvudsakligen utgått från artiklar och studier utförda i fler
Purpose: The purpose of this thesis is to study if and how Swedish accounting regulation create misunderstandings between Swedish aid agencies and stakeholders. Further we are going to analyze if there is a need to improve Swedish accounting regulation to increase faith between the agency and its stakeholders. Methodology: The study is based on a qualitative approach and the primary sources consis
Syfte: Undersöka om det finns något samband mellan överflödiga likvida medel och aktieavkastning på den svenska marknaden. Metod: Vi använder databasen Datastream för att få fram kvantitativ data till 16 variabler fördelat på 2 regressionsmodeller för att bestämma determinanter för kassahållning utifrån ett antal företagsspecifika faktorer. Vi gör tvärsnittsregressioner för varje år för respektive
Title: The municipal school of arts and music - "a school for everyone?" - A study of the accessibility of "Kulturskolor", focusing on the absence of fees. The aim of this thesis is to increase the understanding of a complex of problems concerning broadened recruitment of students and teachers in "Kulturskolor". I have chosen to focus on three schools of performing ar
The subject of this bachelor-level thesis in archaeology in the transition from archaic sapiens to anatomically modern humans, and what might have caused this transition. A part of the study aims to prove or disprove whether an increased consumption of shellfish might have caused this development. Another part of the essay deals with the connection of said evolution and the suggested emergence of
Unlike most ordered molecular systems, globular proteins exhibit a temperature of maximum stability, implying that the structure can be disrupted by cooling. This cold denaturation phenomenon is usually linked to the temperature-dependent hydrophobic driving force for protein folding. Yet, despite the key role played by protein−water interactions, hydration changes during cold denaturation have no
Actinic keratosis (AK) is a common skin condition that may progress to non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC). The disease may influence Health Related Quality of Life (HRQoL), but studies of HRQoL in patients with AK are limited. The purpose of the study was to analyze HRQoL in patients with different severity levels of AK treated in dermatology specialist care using generic and disease-specific HRQoL i
This article aims to share experience from a Swedish project on the introduction and implementation of Open Educational Resources (OER) in higher education with both national and international perspectives. The project, OER – resources for learning, was part of the National Library of Sweden Open Access initiative and aimed at exploring, raising awareness of and disseminating the use of OER and th
Children who are prosocial in elementary school tend to have higher academic achievement and experience greater acceptance by their peers in adolescence. Despite this positive influence on educational outcomes, it is still unclear why some children are more prosocial than others in school. The current study investigates a possible link between following a prosocial norm and self-regulation. We tes
Background: Allergen-specific immunotherapy is the only causative treatment of IgE-mediated allergic disorders. The most common administration route is subcutaneous, which may necessitate more than 50 allergen injections during 3 to 5 years. Recent evidence suggests that direct intralymphatic injections could yield faster beneficial results with considerably lower allergen doses and markedly reduc
In joint prosthetic surgery, various methods are used to provide implant stability. We used an injectable bone substitute, composed of calcium sulfate/hydroxyapatite, as bone defect filler to stabilize a tibia prosthesis in an experimental rabbit model. The aim of the study was to investigate and compare the stability of prosthetic fixation with and without the use of an injectable bone substitute
Whereas maintenance of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) is a requisite for life, uncontrolled expansion of HSCs might enhance the propensity for leukemic transformation. Accordingly, HSC numbers are tightly regulated. The identification of physical cellular HSC niches has underscored the importance of extrinsic regulators of HSC homeostasis. However, whereas extrinsic positive regulators of HSCs ha

Realistic Multiple-Input Multiple-Outout (MIMO) radio channel models are required in order to make fair system comparisons and to design proper signal processing algorithms using this technology. This technical report presents a full parameterization of the COST 2100 MIMO channel model for peer-to-peer communication in the 300 MHz band. Measurements were carried out in a semi-rural and suburban en
Objective: To assess the quality of reporting in observational studies in dermatology. Data Sources: Five dermatology journals-the Archives of Dermatology, the British Journal of Dermatology, the Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology, the Journal of Investigative Dermatology, and Acta Dermato-Venereologica. Study Selection: Cohort, case-control, and cross-sectional studies published as or

Neutrophil-mediated lung injury is an insidious feature in sepsis although the mechanisms regulating pulmonary recruitment of neutrophils remain elusive. Here, we investigated the role of P-selectin glycoprotein-ligand-1 (PSGL-1) in sepsis-induced neutrophil recruitment and tissue injury in the lung. Bronchoalveolar infiltration of neutrophils, levels of myeloperoxidase, oedema formation and CXC c
