This paper deals with the role of a journal's publisher country in determining the expected citation rates of the articles published in it. We analyze whether a paper has a higher citation rate when it is published in one of the large publisher nations, the U.S., U.K., or the Netherlands, compared to a hypothetical situation when the same paper is published in journals of different origin. This wo

Abstract in Danish Formål: Formålet er at beskrive tuberkulosens (tbc.) epidemiologi i Danmark de sidste 25 år, specielt udviklingen i den danske befolkning. Metode: Et registerstudie af anmeldte tilfælde af tbc. i Danmark 1972-1996: Fra 1970-1989 i DIKE's register, fra 1990-1996 i EPI-registeret, epidemiologisk afd., Statens Serum Institut. Resultater: tbc.-incidensen faldt jævnt fra 1972 indtiThe present study is based on notified cases of tuberculosis (TB) in the National tbc. register 1972-1996. A decline in Tb incidence was seen from 1972 and until the mid-1980's. Subsequently the trend has reversed due to an increasing number of TB cases in foreigners. In 1996, 60% of all cases of TB in Denmark were found in foreigners reflecting the rising number of refugees and their families arr

The overall aims of this thesis were to investigate the prevalence, severity and bother of Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms (LUTS) in a clinical sample of stroke patients and to evaluate the effect of pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT) in women with urinary incontinence after ischemic stroke. The thesis consisted of 6 articles based on 4 studies and a review. In the first study (Paper I), the Danish

Objective To develop an accurate method for quantifying differences in the trabecular structure in the tibial bone between subjects with and without knee osteoarthritis (OA). Methods Standard knee radiographs were taken from 26 subjects (seven women) with meniscectomy and radiographic OA Kellgren & Lawrence grade 2 or worse in the medial compartment. Each case knee was individually matched b

Popular Abstract in Swedish Denna avhandling analyserar frågor som berör tillfälliga jobb på den svenska arbetsmarknaden under perioden 1990-1999. Ett viktigt bidrag i avhandlingen är att den stora gruppen tillfälliga jobb delas upp i mindre undergrupper för att ta i beaktande den heterogenitet som finns mellan olika former av tillfälliga jobb.

The papers in this volume explore the cognitive neuroscience of second language acquisition from the perspectives of critical/sensitive periods, maturational effects, individual differences, neural regions involved, and processing characteristics. The research methodologies used include functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), positron emission tomography (PET), and event related potentials (

In 1994, a new law called “Lagen om stöd och service till vissa funktionshindrade” or abbreviated as LSS was admitted by the Swedish government, the law was aimed to increase the social rights of people with certain disabilities.

The transition from animal-based to plant-based proteins is rapidly increasing because of different concerns about meat consumption, some being the nutritional and environmental effects of meat consumption. During this transition, there needs to be a holistic approach to assessing plant-based food. This master thesis is focused on investigating the nutritional and environmental impact of three pla

Att förutsäga framtiden – modellering som ett verktyg för att förutsäga vattenkvantitet och vattenkvalitet Inom 100 år så kommer klimatet förändrats avsevärt om utsläpp av växthusgaser fortsätter i samma takt som idag. Detta kommer påverka temperatur, nederbörd vilka i sin tur påverkar flödet av vatten i Sverige. Ett avrinningsområde består av olika jordtyper, vegetation och topografi, vilka allClimate change will alter the hydrological cycle in the 21st century with implications for the water balance and water quality. As characteristics of the landscape may vary significantly between nearby locations, hydrological models need to be able to delineate responses attributed to specific landscape characteristics, to estimate their responses to altered climatic drivers. Small streams are the

Fram till 1 januari 2015 hade länsstyrelsen möjlighet att besluta om ”113-förordnande” enligt 6 kap. 5 § PBL. 113-förordnandet innebar att kommunen kunde ta mark i anspråk utan ersättning om det ansågs skäligt med hänsyn till den nytta som exploatören förväntades få av planens genomförande och till omständigheterna i övrigt. Hur mark för allmän plats ska värderas och ersättas regleras i 4 kap. 3a Until 1st of January 2015, the county administrative board could decide on “113-regulation” according to Ch. 6 Art. 5 Planning and Building Act. The regulation meant that the municipality could claim land for public spaces without compensation if it was fair considering the benefit expected to be achieved by the planer's implementation and the circumstances in general. How public space is to b

In Axel Honneth's "The Struggle for Recognition" (1995), love as mutual recognition is dealt with through the psychoanalytic theory of Donald Winnicott, who focused principally on relations between parents and their young children. Consequently, Honneth's conceptualisation of love is ill-suited for application in the study of late modern adult romantic relationships. In this thes

The aim of this paper is to examine the media coverage of Antena 3 on the anti-lockdown protests that took place on 2 October 2021 in Bucharest, Romania, as a way of understanding the impact on the public narratives and political discourse of the employment of conspiracy theories by the media. By exploring the allure, politicization, and mentality of conspiracy theories, along with utilizing disc
