I here propose a modification of the English butterfly census method (Pollard 1977) for studies of large areas with a relatively low density of butterflies. The transect line should not be more than 10 m from any point in open terrain and open forests, but only 5 m from sunny edges and patches with a high density of flowers. The transect line is adjusted between visits to most intensively cover si
Measurement of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) in blood is an important tool in detection for prostate cancer. PSA occurs in several molecular forms in blood: mainly as a free form with a molecular mass of 28 kDa; and as PSA complexed to alpha-1-antichymotrypsin, complexed PSA, with a molecular mass of 90 kDa. Total PSA comprises the sum of free PSA and complexed PSA. The percentage of free-to-tot
Introduction: Complement activation is involved in rheumatoid arthritis (RA), systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS). Autoantibodies to complement inhibitor factor H (FH), particularly in association with deletions of the gene coding for FH-related protein 1 (CFHR1), are associated with aHUS. Methods: Autoantibodies against FH, factor I (FI) and C4b-bindin
The calcipotriol/betamethasone dipropionate two-compound product Dovobet (R)/Daivobet (R)/Taclonex (R)(LEO Pharma A/S, Ballerup, Denmark) has been shown to be safe and effective in the treatment of psoriasis for up to 8 weeks. As psoriasis is a chronic disease, long-term treatment may be required, so there is a need to investigate the safety of its use over a longer period of time. To investigate
Background Perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are used in numerous consumer products. They are persistent, bioaccumulating, and suspected to be endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs). A growing body of research has reported the association between PFAS exposure and adverse health effects. Concerns have been raised with special focus in childhood development. Methods Perfluoroheptanoic acid (PFHpA), p
Aims: Resuscitated out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) patients who remain comatose after hospital arrival are at high risk of mortality due to anoxic brain injury. MicroRNA are small-non-coding RNA molecules ultimately involved in gene-silencing. They show promise as biomarkers, as they are stable in body fluids. The microRNA 9-3p (miR-9-3p) is associated with neurological injury in trauma and
REST is a transcriptional repressor that targets a group of neuronal genes in non-neuronal cells. In embryonic stem (ES) cells, REST has been implicated in controlling the expression of transcription factor genes that are crucial for lineage determination and for maintaining ES cell potential. Here, we asked whether REST directly regulates neural-specifying genes in mouse ES cells using siRNA-medi
Nödvärn är en ansvarsfrihetsgrund som stadgas i 24 kap. 1 § BrB och innebär att en otillåten gärning rättfärdigas. Om gärningsmannen vid en nödvärnssituation brukar större våld eller förorsakar svårare skada än vad nödvärn tillåter kan personen gå fri från ansvar om omständigheterna var sådana att denne svårligen kunde besinna sig. Detta följer av nödvärnsexcess som stadgas i 24 kap. 6 § BrB. Vid Self-defense is the base of a discharge system explained in chapter 24 paragraph 6 of the Swedish Penal code, which impose that an unauthorized act can be justified. If a self-defense situation occurs and a person cause greater violence or more damage than it allows, the person may avoid responsibility if the circumstances were such that he could hardly control himself. This is called excessive se
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
Popular Abstract in Swedish Denne afhandling vedrører geriatriske patienters ernæringsproblemer indenfor rammen af geriatrisk rehabilitering. Geriatriske patienter er svækkede ældre mennesker, der er præget af aldring og kronisk sygdom. Den hændelse som er årsag til indlæggelse er ofte som toppen af et isbjerg, hvor der kan ligge mange andre problemer gemt under vandoverfladen. En lungebetændelse The aim was to evaluate the effectiveness and feasibility of functional and nutritional assessments in geriatric rehabilitation in Copenhagen, Denmark, and in addition to study clinically identifiable risk factors for undernutrition, association between nutritional and ADL status, feasibility and effectiveness of nutritional intervention conducted by the nursing staff, and the nursing staffs attit
Uppsatsen behandlar begreppet arbetsbrist i bemanningsföretag. För att en arbetsgivare ska kunna säga upp en arbetstagare krävs det saklig grund i form av antingen arbetsbrist eller personliga skäl. Vinstdrivande uthyrningsverksamhet legaliserades i Sverige år 1993, och bemanningsbranschen har sedan dess kommit att bli en naturlig del av den svenska arbetsmarknaden. Branschen bygger på ett trepartThe essay addresses the subject termination of an employment contract with notice due to redundancy. Termination with notice by the employer must be based on objective grounds, which could be either due to redundancy or circumstances related to the employee personally. Profit-making temporary work agencies were legalised in Sweden in 1993 and have since become a natural part of the Swedish labour
Inom byggbranschen råder jargongen 70 vitt och 30 svart. Genom att använda svartarbetskraft sparas mycket pengar in, arbetsavgifter på 30 procent, moms på 25 procent samt inkomstskatt slipper betalas. Detta drabbar de seriösa aktörerna negativt och bidrar negativt till den sunda konkurrensen. De senaste åren har svartarbetet blivit mer organiserat och som en följd har hot, våld och korruption inom
The objective of this thesis is to investigate the use of commercial devices as user interfaces on a quadrotor and to investigate solutions to the problem of slung load control. A slung load is a uniform mass attached with a wire which is allowed to swing freely to the bottom of the quadrotor. The purpose of substituting the radio control (RC) controller with a commercial smartphone is that they a
With significant changes expected in the earth's global climate over the next century, due to global warming, and its resulting changes in the frequency and amount of precipitation, there has been growing concerns on climate change impacts on water resources. Especially concerned to water managers and governments is the potential impacts on groundwater aquifers since they are the main availabl
Phenological models have mainly been developed to capture the seasonal development of individual trees and local populations, using data from meteorological stations. Ecosystem models that incorporate phenology are however commonly driven by gridded climate data. Using two phenological models to simulate budburst of birch in Germany, we assessed how combining phenological point observations with g
Background: Autism spectrum disorders (ASD) are severe neurodevelopmental disorders with the male:female ratio of 4:1, implying the contribution of X chromosome genetic factors to the susceptibility of ASD. The ribosomal protein L10 (RPL10) gene, located on chromosome Xq28, codes for a key protein in assembling large ribosomal subunit and protein synthesis. Two non-synonymous mutations of RPL10,

Workplace incivility has been shown to affect the individual and organization negatively. Studies have also indicated that workplace incivility is a relatively common phenomenon in Sweden. In connection with the pandemic, working life has become increasingly digital, which has normalized video meetings. Therefore, more knowledge is requested about workplace incivility in digital meetings. This pre
