Abstrakt Denna uppsats syftar till att undersöka hur Albanien har gått från en planekonomi till marknadsekonomi och vilka tillväxteffekter detta har haft. För att undersöka hur transitionen till marknadsekonomi har gått till har jag främst använt mig av teorier från Gros och Steinherr (2004), där de sammanfattat vilka områden i ekonomin som behöver genomgå reformer och därmed anpassa sig till mark

Uppsatsen behandlar frågan om positiv särbehandling på grund av kön och etnicitet i det svenska arbetslivet. Ett sätt att motverka missförhållanden på den svenska arbetsmarknaden har varit införandet av positiv särbehandling. Positiv särbehandling är ett undantag från likabehandlingsprincipen och syftar till att åstadkomma reell jämlikhet. Positiv särbehandling tillåts i svensk rätt för att åstadk

This essay examines the implicit relationship between political science and rare events, or so called Black Swans. The purpose is to analyze Black Swan weakness by evaluating the nature of political analysis and political theories. The key to this assessment is the analysis of the predictive powers of political analysis and theories. This essay claims, on the basis of Karl Poppers historicism crit

Analytical solutions to 2D depth-averaged (external mode) and fully 3D (internal mode) periodic flows for numerical model testing are presented in this paper. These solutions take into account the effects of the bottom friction, the horizontal turbulent viscosity, and the vertical turbulent viscosity for the case of 3D flow. The key linkage for the modes is the relationship between the bottom fric

BACKGROUND: The aim of the study was to examine associations between intake of macronutrients and dietary fiber and incident ischemic cardiovascular disease (iCVD) in men and women. METHODS: We used data from 8,139 male and 12,535 female participants (aged 44-73 y) of the Swedish population-based Malmö Diet and Cancer cohort. The participants were without history of CVD and diabetes mellitus, and

Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is a myeloproliferative neoplasm that, if not treated, will progress into blast crisis (BC) of either myeloid or B lymphoid phenotype. The BCR-ABL1 fusion gene, encoding a constitutively active tyrosine kinase, is thought to be sufficient to cause chronic phase (CP) CML, whereas additional genetic lesions are needed for progression into CML BC. To generate a humanize

Purpose of Review: This article reviews controversial questions within the field of lung transplantation, with a focus on data generated within the last 3 years. We aim to summarize differing opinions on a selection of topics, including bridge-to-transplantation, intraoperative machine circulatory support, bronchial anastomosis, size mismatch, delayed chest closure, and ex vivo lung perfusion.Rece

Monitoring insects of different species to understand the factors affecting their diversity and decline is a major challenge. Laser remote sensing and spectroscopy offer promising novel solutions to this. Coherent scattering from thin wing membranes also known as wing interference patterns (WIPs) have recently been demonstrated to be species specific. The colors of WIPs arise due to unique fringy

BACKGROUNDThe accuracy of estimation of kidney function with the use of routine metabolic tests, such as measurement of the serum creatinine level, has been controversial. The European Kidney Function Consortium (EKFC) developed a creatinine-based equation (EKFC eGFRcr) to estimate the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) with a rescaled serum creatinine level (i.e., the serum creatinine level is divi

Urban areas provide breeding habitats for many species. However, animals raised in urban environments face challenges such as altered food availability and quality, pollution and pathogen assemblages. These challenges can affect physiological processes such as immune function and antioxidant defences which are important for fitness. Here, we explore how levels of urbanisation influence innate immu
