Cognitive control is a skill used to control one’s own behaviour to reach a goal. We compared this skill across archosaurs by using the distraction task on American alligators, emus, chickens, and common ravens. We investigated whether the animals would still find a food reward hidden behind one of two identical opaque barriers after picking up a food distraction. Results show that all species can

3′-Phosphoadenosine-5′-phosphosulfate (PAPS) is a key player in the sulfation of biomolecules, but methods for selective measurements are lacking. A liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC–MS) approach for measuring PAPS was developed. A central feature of the method was employing hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC), which is highly suited for separating very polar/charged co

Background: Time of diagnosis (TOD) of benign esophageal perforation is regarded as an important risk factor for clinical outcome, although convincing evidence is lacking. The aim of this study is to assess whether time between onset of perforation and diagnosis is associated with clinical outcome in patients with iatrogenic esophageal perforation (IEP) and Boerhaave’s syndrome (BS). Methods: We s

To evaluate the long term effect on lower extremity function and working capacity after stenting of iliocaval vein segments for acute deep venous thrombosis (DVT) or chronic venous occlusive disease. During a 14 year period from November 1994 to October 2008, 114 patients with median age 36 (interquartile range [IQR], 27-48) years, 72 (63%) women, 72 (63%) with hypercoagulable disorders, with acut

The studies on political parties in the political sphere have for a long time been at the center of understanding why political parties act the way they do and how this affects their chances in upcoming elections. Instead, this paper aims to examine how representatives from the Social Democrats, Swedish Democrats and Liberals relate to the parties common positions regarding the European Union in t

Parternas tillgång till bevis i skiljeförfarande är ofta avgörande för tvistens utgång. I synnerhet är anskaffningen av skriftlig bevisning essentiell då den av skiljenämnden generellt tillmäts ett högre bevisvärde än övriga bevismedel. Det huvudsakliga syftet med uppsatsen är att undersöka om parter i ett skiljeförfarande som äger rum i Sverige kan anskaffa erforderlig bevisning utan att tidsåtgåThe parties’ access to evidence in arbitration is of major importance to the outcome of almost every dispute. The taking of documentary evidence is of particularly importance because of the high evidential value it is given by the arbitrators. The main purpose of the essay is to determine if the parties to arbitration in Sweden can gather adequate evidence without having to spend too much time and

The main goal of this thesis is to investigate the properties and prospects of the new digital currency, Bitcoin. How is it structured and is there a possibility of it having a substantial impact on the financial sector or today’s monetary systems? Through macroeconomic theory, financial models and academic writing we will explain the fundamentals of money, how the Bitcoin network functions and in

I have chosen to compare and analyse anti-Semitism on two Islamist and two neo-Nazi websites. The websites belong to Radio Islam, The Muslim Brotherhood, The National Socialist Movement and The National Socialist Front. I have used the theories of William Brustein and Walter Laqueur, which claim that the perception of the Jew and Judaism has remained more or less the same for two thousands years.

The aim of this thesis is to investigate the determinants of the retirement decisions in Sweden by using qualitative micro data from The Survey on Health and Retirement in probit models. The models investigate the change in job status between the first survey wave in year 2004 and the second survey wave in year 2006/2007 by adding background variables measured in years 2004. The study show that de

Background: Currently available biomarkers for the early tissue process leading to joint damage in rheumatoid arthritis are insufficient and lack prognostic accuracy, possibly a result of variable activity of the disease over time. This study represents a novel approach to detect an altered activity of the disease process detected as increasing serum-COMP levels over a short time and whether this

When we speak of the “Cultural Revolution” in China, we actually refer not to the past but to a narrative interpretation of the past, a particular organization of knowledge which has gone unquestioned for a long time. This paper attempts to develop an alternative narrative scope from which to view the final ten-plus years of politics in the People’s Republic under Mao Zedong. It looks at that same

This dissertation aims to contribute empirically and theoretically, to the field of Islamology and Religious Studies in general. It does so by investigating the possible relation between Israeli Muslim women’s choice of religious identification and their individual experiences in everyday life transitions. Many of these women are traveling daily from their hometowns or villages to the major cities

The galectins are known to be able to recognize and cross-link beta-D-galactopyranoside-containing glycoconjugates as a result of presenting multiple binding sites. This review summarizes efforts in our group for the last ten years towards low-molecular weight chemically modified carbohydrate derivatives. In addition to providing an avenue for improved affinity and galectin-selectivity, we have fo
