Today heritage is considered to be an important resource for society and a valuable asset for sustainable development. This notion is true from international to local/regional level. This thesis investigates the current heritage discourse in the European Union (EU) and provides a qualitative assessment of the values and potential impacts of the two case studies, conducted in the proceedings of thi
Greece in a period of financial crisis (2008-2013) is questioning the success of its policy implementation. The training centers for the intellectually disabled, as implementers of policies and programs on a national and European level, also question that success. Using Foucault’s concept of power relations within society, it is aimed to find whether policies and programmes for the intellectually
The share of transport sector green house gas emissions has been increasing in the EU-15 in the recent decades. Moreover, the development in passenger and freight transport subsectors has diverged. This thesis provides drivers of freight transport carbon emissions in the EU-15 between 1995 and 2008 by conducting Log Mean Divisia Index (LMDI) decomposition. It differentiates between structure, inte
A search for new phenomena in events featuring a high energy jet and large missing transverse momentum in proton-proton collisions at root s = 7 TeV is presented using a dataset corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 33 pb(-1) recorded with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. The number of observed events is consistent with the Standard Model prediction. This result is interpret
Sixty-four adult patients operated on for isolated cleft palate were evaluated with regard to facial skeletal morphology using conventional radio-cephalometry. Dental occlusion was assessed clinically. Forty-two had had a von Langenbeck repair at the age of 7 months and 22 a Wardill repair at 18 months. The mean error of the method was 0.7 degree for angular, and 0.9 mm for linear, measurements. T
The arguments put forward in the debate on Turkey's bid for EU membership are many and diverse. The aim of this thesis is, by using the methodological framework of constructivst comparative politics and political reasoning, to systematically structure the arguments. Officially the question of whether or not Turkey will become a member of the EU depends upon the developments internally in the c
This study aims to identify the key leverage points of local tourism on Öland in which work can be initiated to bring about a more sustainable development of the tourism industry. To achieve this, an analysis was made of the tourism industry on Öland, and a methodological framework called The Öland Model developed for the initiation of a project to stimulate thinking among the actors on the island
I denna kandidatuppsats undersöks den använda retoriken av den Nationella Kampanjen för rätten till laglig, säker och gratis abort i Argentina. Syftet med studien är att under- söka om den reproduktiva styrningen håller på att förändras. Det valda empiriska materialet består av ett dokument som skrivits av den Nationella Kampanjen för rätten till laglig, säker och gratis abort i Argentina. UppsatsThis bachelor thesis investigates the rhetoric used by the National Campaign for the right to legal, safe and free abortion in Argentina. The purpose of the study is to research if the reproductive governance of Argentina is in transition. The empirical material selected consist of a document written by the National Campaign for the right to legal, safe and free abortion in Argentina. The theoreti
This study explores two forms of oppressions facing Palestinian women in the Occupied Palestinian Territories: the Israeli Occupation and the Patriarchal Structure in their society. The purpose of the study is to examine how these oppressions intersect and impact Palestinian women’s daily life and their struggle for gender equality. Two question, in accordance with the study’s purpose were of part
A search for Higgs boson pair production in the bb¯ WW * decay mode is performed in the bb¯ ℓνqq final state using 36.1 fb −1 of proton-proton collision data at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV recorded with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. No evidence of events beyond the background expectation is found. Upper limits on the non-resonant pp → HH production cross section of 10 pb a
In pre-industrial Europe, many thousands of ‘middle-class’ individuals retired by purchasing a corrody: a contract allowing them life-long food and lodging, usually by spending their remaining years in a hospital. Given that people usually struggle to prepare for the later stages of life, this article asks whether corrodies were priced in line with the market. We study institutions that specialize
Background: Myocardial infarction (MI) occurs frequently and requires considerable health care resources. It is important to ensure that the treatments which are provided are both clinically effective and economically justifiable. Based on recent new evidence, routine oxygen therapy is no longer recommended in MI patients without hypoxemia. By using data from a nationwide randomized clinical trial
The disparity between the ongoing use of criminal profiling and the lack of empirical evidence for its validity is referred to as criminal profiling illusion. Associated risks for society range from misled police investigations, hindered apprehensions of the actual offender(s), and wrongful convictions to mistrust in the police. Research on potential explanations is in its infancy but assumes that
The stability and activity of a model protein, lysozyme, in 1 : 2 choline chloride : glycerol was characterised across a wide range of protein concentrations, i.e., between 4 and 143 mg ml−1, where the protein is soluble and physically stable. Lysozyme folds into a globular conformation in this deep eutectic solvent like that in the native state, but with subtle variations in its internal structur
Proteomics is widely utilized to understand the function of cellular processes at the molecular level. Using liquid chromatography interfaced with mass spectrometry (LC-MS)-based proteomics, thousands of proteins can be identified and quantified in a single experiment and their relationship and interactions can be analyzed. This makes the analysis of high-throughput proteomics data a cornerstone i
A search for heavy resonances decaying into a pair of Z bosons leading to ℓ+ℓ-ℓ+ℓ- and ℓ+ℓ- final states, where ℓ stands for either an electron or a muon, is presented. The search uses proton–proton collision data at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 36.1 fb - 1 collected with the ATLAS detector during 2015 and 2016 at the Large Hadron Collider. Differe
Introduction: The scapular osseous free flap (SOFF) is being increasingly used for complex head and neck reconstructions. This study examined the surgical outcomes, focusing on post-operative complications and sequelae in patients who underwent SOFF for maxillary and mandibular reconstructions. Material and Methods: This retrospective, observational, population-based study included patients who un
Background: The ongoing Pan-European Real Life (PEARL) phase 4 study is evaluating fremanezumab effectiveness and safety for the prevention of episodic and chronic migraine. This interim analysis reports primary, secondary and exploratory endpoints from when 500 participants completed at least six months of treatment. Methods: Adults with episodic migraine or chronic migraine maintaining daily hea
Background and purpose: Early this century, the high risk strategy of primary stroke and cardiovascular disease (CVD) prevention for individuals shifted away from identifying (and treating, as appropriate) all at-risk individuals towards identifying and treating individuals who exceed arbitrary thresholds of absolute CVD risk. The public health impact of this strategy is uncertain. Methods: In our
