The music industry’s venture capitalists - A case study on a British educational institution of rock- & popmusic What is the aim and purpose of popular music in higher education? The question above is one of many asked throughout the process of writing this paper. During a week we set out to try and answer it by conducting a case study research paper on The Institute of Contemporary Music Perf
MODELING LAND-COVER USING BIO-CLIMATE VARIABLES Vegetation (land-cover) is an inherent part of the climate system (M.-J. Gaillard et al. 2010). Natural, primarily climate-driven, vegetation and ecosystem processes interact with human land-use to determine vegetation patterns, stand structure and their development through time (e.g. Vitousek et al., 1997). The resulting land surface properties feed
Veikimoräner är cirkulära moräner med ryggar längs kanterna som kan hittas i norra Sverige. Majoriteten är belägna längs en N-S gående kuperat landskap. Moränerna tros ha bildats under tidig-mellan Weichsel och har överlagrats av glaciärer från efterföljande glaciationer. Tack vare att Veikimoränerna har bevaratas i så gott skick kan dessa moräner ge värdefull information om glaciationer och dåvarVeiki moraine is a landform area consisting of rim-ridged subcircular hummocks and plateaus with depressions in between, mostly located within a N-S extending zone of a hummocky landscape. It is believed to have formed during the pre-late Weichselian and survived overriding by ice during the subsequent glaciations. Due to their good preservation, the Veiki moraine provides valuable information on
Background/objectives: Adequate mineral intake is important for the maintenance of bone health, cellular function and general metabolism, and possibly in the aetiology of cancer and other chronic diseases. This study aimed at investigating variation in intakes of selected minerals across 10 European countries participating in the EPIC (European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition)
The forest floor provides an important interface of soil-atmosphere CO2 exchanges but their controls and contributions to the ecosystem-scale carbon budget are uncertain due to measurement limitations. In this study, we deployed eddy covariance systems below- and above-canopy to measure the spatially integrated net forest floor CO2 exchange (NFFE) and the entire net ecosystem CO2 exchange (NEE) at
Wear particles commonly used for experiments may carry adherent endotoxin on their surfaces, which may be responsible for the observed effects. In this study, we attached titanium plates to the tibiae of 20 rats. After osseointegration, endotoxin-contaminated or uncontaminated high-density-polyethylene (HDPE) particles were applied. Contaminated specimens showed a dramatic resorption of bone after

Introduction and Aims: Injecting opioid users are at elevated risk of death. Although liver disease (especially hepatitis C) is common, its impact on mortality is low in active injectors. Because opioid substitution therapy (OST) reduces the risk of death from directly drug related causes, we hypothesised that the proportion of liver-related deaths would increase in subjects receiving OST. We inve
The payment method is under transition making the world step into a digital and mobile oriented chapter. With the development of integration between internet technology and financial functions, China expects to have a large number of mobile payments from its citizens as a result of the population size. The growth and development of e-commerce and the rise of online shopping have contributed much t
Waste is an issue in the food industry which impacts both the economy and the environment negatively. Atria is a food company aiming to reduce the waste. This report investigates the waste, its origin, and causes in the ham production process. The aim of this report is to identify waste and possible solutions. In this report both qualitative data and quantitative data were collected and analysed.
We wanted to investigate if plasma levels of antimicrobial polypeptides (AMPs) are increased in severe sepsis and if they correlate with severity and mortality. Samples were collected from 31 sepsis patients at the intensive care unit. The Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score and 90-day mortality were registered, and inflammatory markers and AMP levels were measured by ELISA. A median
Background Achievement of global health goals will require assessment of progress not only nationally but also for population subgroups. We aimed to assess how the magnitude of socioeconomic inequalities in health changes in relation to different rates of national progress in coverage of interventions for the health of mothers and children. Methods We assessed coverage in low-income and middle-inc
The history of scientific illustrations is a story that correspond the cultural, economic, political and scientific history of the world. A look into the history of sciences displays that pictures and illustrations had a decisive role for the sciences progressive success and rising societal status from the sixteenth century. The illustrations visualized the unknown to graspable facts. Without the
This article offers an empirical example of how power and rationality interact in coastal resource planning and management and reveals their implications for meaningful public participation in such processes. Participation has gained significant popularity over the last decades especially regarding the need to develop appropriate and democratic opportunities for meaningful public involvement in re
Objective: To investigate (i) the performance and agreement between various activity indices and response criteria in TNF-blockade of RA; (ii) the predictive ability of different response criteria and disease activity states regarding continuation of anti-TNF treatment of RA; (iii) Euro-QoL-5-dimensions utility development during TNF blockade of RA, PsA and SpA. Also, (iv) to develop a simple, uti
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common forms of human cancer worldwide with approximately 1 million new cases detected every year. CEA is currently the only accepted CRC marker incorporated into clinical practice, where it is used for early detection of metastasis in follow-up of patients having stage II and III disease, and for monitoring response to adjuvant treatment. However there a
This paper investigates explanations of variation in the development of capital asset volume between Swedish local governments, 1999–2008. As a pre-study, four cases were performed, generating 7 suggested explanatory factors. Hypotheses were generated by combining the suggested factors with a new political economy framework, containing two general assumptions. A national dataset of Swedish local g
