This pertains also to the Nordic countries, despite their characterisation as well developed welfare states with active labour market policies. This should be viewed against the background of
Phosphatidylinositol-5-phosphate (PtdIns5P) 4-kinase beta (PIP4K2B) directly regulates the levels of two important phosphoinositide second messengers, PtdIns5P and phosphatidylinositol-(4,5)-bisphosphate [PtdIns(4,5)P-2]. PIP4K2B has been linked to the regulation of gene transcription, to TP53 and AKT activation, and to the regulation of cellular reactive oxygen accumulation. However, its role in
Abstract in UndeterminedAn analysis of the environmental effects and resource consumption by four systems for management of wastewater and organic household waste in a new city area have been performed, as follows: (1) conventional system complemented with advanced sludge treatment for phosphorus recovery, (2) blackwater system with urine diversion and food waste disposers, (3) blackwater system w
Holmqvist, G. & Lundqvist Persson, C. (2011). Is there evidence for the use of art therapy in treatment of psychosomatic disorders, eating disorders and crisis? A comparative study of two different systems for evaluation. Scandinavian Journal of Psychology. As with any type of treatment the requirement for evidence based practice (EBP) has also affected art therapy (AT) when used as an interve
BackgroundImprovement of traditional methods for dietary assessment is necessary, especially in rural areas where it is more difficult to succeed with self-reporting methods. This study presents and validates a method for improving accuracy when measuring food and nutrient intake of individuals in rural areas. It is called the “Food photography 24-h recall method” (FP 24-hR) and is a modified
In this thesis we have examined Västra Götalandsregionens ways to lobby and network in the European Union. Our aim was to examine which kind of methods the region uses to lobby in a successful way in Brussels. We found that the region uses both formal and informal methods of lobbying to gain advantages in Brussels. We also wanted to locate various networks which the region is involved in to more e
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
This paper builds upon previous research on the relationship between IPR, trade and FDI based on data worldwide. As the result varies cross countries, this paper will focus on China to analyze the improvement of China’s IPR protection and analyze the potential impact of strengthening IPR protection on the development of trade and FDI using data from WTO, WIPO, MOFCOM and so on. Unlike developed co
This essay is concerning the consequences that may occur out of media reactions. In this survey, I am examining a few articles from three Swedish leading newspapers for the purpose to show how African countries can be presented in media. By criticizing the different articles’ way of portraying Africa, I am demonstrating that the author of the article can formulate situations in particular ways. It
In the past people sought for information via libraries, travel magazines or were inspired by marketing the travel agency made in order to attract consumers. Before the Internet era one way communication was the right way to follow. Since Internet was developed two ways communication has evolved and people can talk to each other worldwide. The development of the two ways communication has created
The MENA (Middle East and North Africa) region enjoys a high availability of clean renewable energy sources, especially solar. In recent years, several countries within the region have introduced policy instruments to encourage the deployment of distributed solar photovoltaic (PV). This thesis reviews and evaluates policy instruments adopted in Egypt, Palestine and Tunisia. The experiences from th
I Sveriges storstadsregioner råder idag en brist på bostäder. Vill man hyra en lägenhet ska man helst ha ställt sig i kö många år i förväg. Har man inte kötid, kontakter eller lust att betala ockerhyra för att bo i andra hand bör man ha en årsinkomst eller två i kontanter bara för att få låna ihop till en bostadsrätt. Till följd av detta byggs det nu mer än på länge, men det som byggs är oftast inIn Sweden, there’s currently a shortage of housing. If you want to rent an apartment, you will have to have been queuing for years. If you don’t have the queue time to compete, the necessary contacts or you just don’t want to pay an arm and a leg for a sub-let you might need to have a year’s salary in cash just to be able to get the loan you need for a condominium. In reaction to this we are seein
IKEA Industry has ambitious goals for increasing energy efficiency at the production sites. Energy monitoring systems are therefore an important tool towards fulfilling those goals. The purpose of this master thesis is to get an overview and map the current situation at the production sites. Furthermore, the aim is to give recommendations and produce methods that can help organise the energy work.
Bakgrund: För att skelettmuskulaturen ska kunna kontraheras krävs energirika fosfatbindningar som heter adenosintrifosfat (ATP). För att tillgodose muskulaturens behov av energi finns 3 olika system, där det största, som producerar majoriteten av all ATP under vila och längre ansträngningar (>1 minut) är det aeroba systemet. I avsaknad av syre eller när de aeroba processerna inte hinner ta vara p
The discovery of the Higgs boson h in 2012 further confirmed the remarkable accuracy of the Standard Model (SM). Despite this, some compelling excesses in multi-lepton final states were recorded in both major runs of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The excesses can be explained by the introduction of a model where a heavy boson X decays into a SM Higgs boson h and a singlet scalar S with Higgs-li
