I kapitlet är syftet att vidga perspektivet på regleringar och diskutera den omreglering som har skett i arbetslivet under de tre-fyra senaste decennierna. Förändringarna i arbetslivet hänger samman med nya konkurrensvillkor, ny teknik och förändrade arbetsorganisationer. Det handlar om en utveckling bort från det som brukar kallas industrisamhället till det post-industriella samhället. Hur påverk
Phylogenetic relationships within the helcionelloid molluscs have been difficult to establish. One of the reasons for this is that qualitative approaches to investigating morphological variation in this group have struggled to identify clear patterns. An alternative method of identifying these patterns is to study these organisms quantitatively. Here this approach is exemplified by employing morph
Breast tomosynthesis (BT) is an X-ray imaging technique recently introduced as an alternative or complement to standard digital mammography (DM) in breast imaging and breast cancer screening. In BT, a set of projection images is acquired over a limited angular range and reconstructed into a volume of slice images. The method includes many possible combinations of acquisition parameters that have t
Nomenclatural type definitions are one of the most important concepts in biological nomenclature. Being physical objects that can be re-studied by other researchers, types permanently link taxonomy (an artificial agreement to classify biological diversity) with nomenclature (an artificial agreement to name biological diversity). Two proposals to amend the International Code of Nomenclature for alg
The mechanisms responsible for macrovascular complications in diabetes remain to be fully understood. Recent studies have identified impaired vascular repair as a possible cause of plaque vulnerability in diabetes. This notion is supported by observations of a reduced content of fibrous proteins and smooth muscle cell mitogens in carotid endarterectomy from diabetic patients along with findings of
The purpose of this paper is to introduce the concept coworkers’ communicative responsibility taking and to test which factors might influence coworkers’ tendency to take communicative responsibility. The study is split into two phases where on exploratory phase consisted of an exploratory factor analysis on 2244 with the aim to find specific latent factors to test in the confirmatory phase. The c
NAD står för Nätverk, Aktivitet och Delaktighet och är ett samarbete mellan Länsstyrelsen, Region Skåne, Arbetsförmedlingen och NÄTVERKET Idéburen sektor Skåne, en regional intresseorganisation för civilsamhället i Skåne. NAD utvecklar och förmedlar aktiviteter som erbjuds som en del av den etableringsplan som Arbetsförmedlingen upprättar tillsammans med den nyanlända. NAD syftar till att underlät
Knowledge hubs are generally located in large and dynamic population clusters, but there is little empirical evidence on what has driven the location of services in the economy, particularly the knowledge-intensive ones that form these hubs. This column describes how the geography of services across the US has been influenced by the interaction between county and industry characteristics. The pres
Background: Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have improved the survival of patients with chronic myeloid leukaemia. Many patients have deep molecular responses, a prerequisite for TKI therapy discontinuation. We aimed to define precise conditions for stopping treatment. Methods: In this prospective, non-randomised trial, we enrolled patients with chronic myeloid leukaemia at 61 European centres i
A mixed-domain device characterisation algorithm with is proposed and evaluated. Wideband signals from a time-domain wavelet generator are applied to millimetre-wave antennas. Deliberately chosen gating techniques in time- A nd frequency-domain are used to relax the calibration effort to one reference measurement. A frequency-domain gate shapes the excitation pulse. Selective removal of setup arte
PURPOSE: When a woman is diagnosed with breast cancer, it affects all family members. Therefore, the aim of this study was to elucidate family members lived experience when a family member is diagnosed with breast cancer.METHOD: The study had a hermeneutic phenomenological design including individual conversational interviews conducted face-to-face with six women with breast cancer and their famil
A detailed chemical kinetic mechanism comprising methyl acetate and ethyl acetate has been developed based on the previous work by Westbrook et al. [1]. The newly developed kinetic mechanism has been updated with new reaction rates from recent theoretical studies. To validate this model, shock tube experiments measuring ignition delay time have been conducted at 15 & 30 bar and equivalence rat
This paper examines the life-cycle dynamics of real wages and labor supply in Sweden. The descriptive results lend support to the inter-temporal substitution hypothesis (ISH), as the age patterns of real wages and the labor supply are both hump-shaped. However, the age-wage profiles increasingly shift toward older ages over time, whereas the age-employment profiles do not. This leads to an accentu
We studied the at-sea distribution of two auks (Common Murre Uria aalge, Razorbill Alca torda), two gulls (Lesser Black-backed Gull Larus fuscus, Herring Gull Larus argentatus), and Great Cormorant Phalacrocorax carbo during the peak breeding season of 2014 around Stora Karlsö, the main Baltic Sea seabird colony. Simultaneously, we quantified forage fish abundance and distribution using hydro-acou
The amyloid β-protein (Aβ) is believed to play a central role in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) pathogenesis and there is great interest in understanding the process of Aβ aggregation, its underlying mechanism and the species generated during aggregation and their biological activity. Although Aβ has been studied for more than 30 years, analysis of its aggregation has been hampered by structural and che
BACKGROUND: There is a lack of information on positive work factors among health care workers. OBJECTIVE: To explore salutogenic work-related factors among primary health care employees. METHOD: Questionnaire to all employees (n = 599) from different professions in public and private primary health care centers in one health care district in Sweden. The questionnaire, which had a salutogenic persp
PROBLEM: The Pacific region has widely dispersed populations, limited financial and human resources and a high burden of disease. There is an urgent need to improve the availability, reliability and timeliness of useable health data.CONTEXT: The purpose of this paper is to share lessons learnt from a three-year pilot field epidemiology training programme that was designed to respond to these Pacif
