Story-telling is increasingly accepted as a management strategy aiming to build commitment to, and acceptance for, ideas, brands and organizations. But what happens when story-telling meets transparency demands in public sector reform? This topic is explored in this paper. It builds on a case study of a major public sector reform, including the merger of two hospitals in the south of Sweden. The s
In Vietnam, practical settlement of criminal cases tends to indicate that incorrect judgments still exist that naturally prejudices the legitimate rights and interests of citizens, including the right to have defense counsel. This results from various causes, of which the overlapping and contradictory nature of the laws is one. This dissertation focuses on examining the contents of the applicable
Scandoromani: Remnants of a Mixed Language is the first, comprehensive, international description of the language of the Swedish and Norwegian Romano, also labeled resande/reisende. The language, an official minority language in Sweden and Norway, has a history in Scandinavia going back to the early 16th century. A mixed language of Romani and Scandinavian, it is spoken today by a vanishingly smal
Cytochrome c oxidase is an essential component of the mitochondrial respiratory chain that catalyzes the reduction of molecular oxygen by reduced cytochrome c. In this study, the authors report the second mutation associated with Leigh syndrome in the blood and buccal mucosa of 2 affected members of a Tunisian family. It was a novel heteroplasmic missense mitochondrial mutation at nucleotide 9478
In this study, bread was baked with and without the addition of α-amylase. Starch was extracted from the baked bread and its molecular properties were characterized using 1H NMR and asymmetric flow field-flow fractionation (AF4) connected to multi-angle light scattering (MALS) and other detectors. The approach allows determination of molar mass, root- mean-square radius and apparent density as wel
BACKGROUND: Non-fatal outcomes of disease and injury increasingly detract from the ability of the world's population to live in full health, a trend largely attributable to an epidemiological transition in many countries from causes affecting children, to non-communicable diseases (NCDs) more common in adults. For the Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, and Risk Factors Study 2015 (GBD 2015), we
Though many individual transcription factors are known to regulate hematopoietic differentiation, major aspects of the global architecture of hematopoiesis remain unknown. Here, we profiled gene expression in 38 distinct purified populations of human hematopoietic cells and used probabilistic models of gene expression and analysis of cis-elements in gene promoters to decipher the general organizat
This research discusses the importance of a photograph of an accused war criminal, Abdul Kader Molla, during the period immediately before the emergence of the Shahbag movement in Bangladesh. The image captures Kader Molla flashing a V sign, and it was taken in the moments after he had been sentenced to life imprisonment by the International Crimes Tribunal in Bangladesh in 2013. After Kader Molla
A major obstacle in ex vivo gene transfer has been the loss of transgene expression soon after implantation of the grafted transduced cells. Recently, a lentiviral vector system has been developed which has proven to express high levels of transgenes in vivo after direct injection into the tissue. In this study, we have investigated the use of such a vector for ex vivo gene transfer to the brain.
Sheet bulk metal forming processes are applied in order to produce tailored workpieces at high quality. Thereby, effort is made to optimise frictional and wear behaviour by designing the structures of the contact surfaces. Numerical process analysis can evoke a deeper under-standing of the functionality of such surface structures. In this contribution, a finite element framework for the simulation
The effects of trifluoperazine (TFP) on fast and slow axonal transport (AXT) of labeled proteins were examined in the rabbit vagus nerve. Cuffs soaked in a 10 mM, but not 0.1 mM or 1 mM, concentration of TFP applied locally around the vagus nerve in vivo blocked both fast and slow AXT, as measured by the accumulation of 3H‐labeled proteins. In vitro, fast AXT was affected by 0.1 mM TFP. The TFP cu
Recently, nonlinear properties of three-terminal ballistic junctions (TBJs) were predicted by theoretical calculations done by Xu, and potential applications such as rectification and logic function proposed. In that analysis the TBJ was modeled by connecting three quantum point contacts via a ballistic cavity with adiabatic boundaries, thus neglecting any backscattering of electrons. In this pape
MATLAB and its companion product Simulink are commonly used tools insystems modelling and other scientific disciplines. A cross-disciplinaryintegrated MATLAB model is used to study the overall performance of theproposed 50m optical and infrared telescope, Euro50. However thecomputational requirements of this kind of end-to-end simulation of thetelescope's behaviour, exceeds the capability of an in
A new Modelica library is presented that is used to model safe hierarchical state machines in combination with any Modelica model, e.g., controllers, logical blocks, and physical systems described by differential-algebraic equations. It has been designed for simple usage, to guarantee safety properties and to harmonise with the design of the new Modelica_EmbeddedSystems library. Furthermore, new b
Popular Abstract in Swedish Syftet med min avhandling har varit att visa på några viktiga drag som framträder vid en undersökning och en jämförelse av fyra etablerade poeter från 1970-talets diktargeneration i Grekland: Michalis Ganas, Maria Kirtzaki, Tzeni Mastoraki och Kostas Papageorgiou. Genom att deras litterära skapande satts i en tydlig relief mot relevanta politiska, historiska och samhäll
