High and low molecular mass kininogen, two multidomain plasma proteins, bind to endothelial cells, platelets, and neutrophils in the intravascular compartment. The specific cell attachment site on their common heavy chain is mediated by domain-3, a cystatin-like structure with inhibitory capacity for papain-like proteinases (Jiang, Y., Muller-Esterl, W., and Schmaier, A. H. (1992) J. Biol. Chem. 2

This chapter explores the role of gender equality on the long-run economicand demographic development path of industrialized countries. It accounts forchanges in fertility, technology and income per capita in the transition fromstagnation to sustained growth. Our unified cliometric growth model of femaleempowerment suggests that changes in gender relations, triggered byendogenous skill-biased techn

This chapter explores how Danish animal rights activists challenge the commodification of female bodies, particularly in dairy production, through narratives of motherhood and care. It examines how activists attempt to educate the public—not only by providing information about how dairy is produced but also by offering alternative frameworks from which to think about human-cow relations. Based on

Governments of different levels have been implementing various policies to enhance the closure of material loops, as well as to reduce the risk of hazardous substances. Manufacturers and distributors of products have a crucial role in the selection and/or verification of materials for their new products. This study sought to obtain concrete knowledge on perception, experiences, and future outlook

The current study examined the role of visually perceived material properties in motor planning, where we analyzed the temporal and spatial components of motor movements during a seated reaching task. We recorded hand movements of 14 participants in three dimensions while they lifted and transported paper cups that differed in weight and glossiness. Kinematic- and spatial analysis revealed speed-a

This thesis addresses the gap in literature and research surrounding the historical context of database security in Sweden. Through extensive research and in-depth interviews with Swedish cybersecurity experts, it highlights the underrepresented “story” of database security and emphasizes the need for a more holistic approach to this highly specialized field. Key findings indicate that the economi

The extensive discussions of the relationship between the history of science and the philosophy of science in the mid-20th century provide a long history of grappling with the relevance of empirical research on the practices of science to the philosophical analysis of science. Further, those discussions also touched upon the issue of importing empirical methods into the philosophy of science throu

BACKGROUND: The progression of dementia disease implies increasing needs for both informal and formal care and services but also risk of institutionalisation. To better adjust care and services in the phase preceding institutionalisation it is important to find out whether utilisation of formal and informal care and services is determined by increased needs and by who meets the needs.AIM: The aim

Popular Abstract in Swedish Kärnmagnetisk resonans (NMR) är en metod som bygger på att många atomkärnor uppför sig som mycket små magneter. Detta i sin tur beror på att kärnan beter sig som en liten roterande laddning. Man säger att kärnan har ett spinn, eller att kärnan är ett spinn. I min avhandling använder jag mig av en fantastisk egenskap hos kärnspinnen. Om man stör systemet kIn the work presented, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) relaxation is used to study wide range of systems. The thesis concerns solvent interactions studied with relaxation techniques that involve measurements at many fields, which allows the separation of individual relaxation mechanisms. The approach also makes it possible to characterize the involved dynamic properties in much greater detail. T

Philosophers have stressed the need to distinguish between explanatory (motivating) reasons and justifying (good) reasons. The distinction is often illustrated with an example of someone doing something that is intended to appear at the outset as incomprehensible. The next step is then to add some further details about the agent — typically some information about his or her beliefs and desires — p

OBJECTIVES. This study examined the relationship between awareness of disability and occupational performance in a group of elderly persons during the year after stroke. METHOD. Data on awareness of disability and occupational performance (i.e., activities of daily living [ADL] motor and process ability) were collected 1, 3, 6, and 12 months after stroke. A mixed-linear-effects model was implement
