Cerebellar dysfunction is commonly observed following traumatic brain injury (TBI). While direct impact to the cerebellum by TBI is rare, cerebellar pathology may be caused by indirect injury via cortico-cerebellar pathways. To address the hypothesis that degeneration of Purkinje cells (PCs), which constitute the sole output from the cerebellum, is linked to long-range axonal injury and demyelinat
Det övergripande syftet med denna avhandling är att främja den konceptuella förståelsen av transformativ innovationspolitik genom empirisk forskning med fokus på omställningen till en cirkulär ekonomi i den danska avfallssektorn. Under detta breda syfte handlar avhandlingen mer specifikt om att utforska frågor relaterade till geografi i transformativ innovationspolitik samt såkallad övergångsdynamThe overall aim of this thesis is to advance the conceptual understanding of transformative innovation policy through empirical research focusing on the transition towards a circular economy in the Danish waste sector. Under this broad aim, the thesis is more specifically concerned with exploring issues relating to the geography of transformative innovation policy as well as transition dynamics an
Individual patient data were available for all four of the randomized trials that began before 1995, and that compared adjuvant radiotherapy vs no radiotherapy following breast-conserving surgery for ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS). A total of 3729 women were eligible for analysis. Radiotherapy reduced the absolute 10-year risk of any ipsilateral breast event (ie, either recurrent DCIS or invasive
Attachment theory and research are drawn upon in many applied settings, including family courts, but misunderstandings are widespread and sometimes result in misapplications. The aim of this consensus statement is, therefore, to enhance understanding, counter misinformation, and steer family-court utilisation of attachment theory in a supportive, evidence-based direction, especially with regard to
How does violent conflict affect the spread of Covid-19? In this paper we analyze how violent conflict influences the adoption of preventative measures and infection rate in a very poor, conflict-affected country, Burkina Faso. We use a unique panel of 1,919 households surveyed during the first six months of the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020 and merge these data with indicators of violence at the muniHow does violent conflict affect the spread of Covid-19?

Globins are usually associated with oxygen carriage in vertebrates. However, plants also contain similar heme-containing proteins, called phytoglobins (Pgbs). Unlike conventional hemoglobin, these proteins are often linked to nitric oxide metabolism, energy metabolism and redox maintenance under hypoxic and related abiotic and biotic stress conditions. Class I and II non-symbiotic Pgbs (nsPgbs) ha
Objective: Varying degrees of inter-organizational collaboration concerning children at risk has grown rapidly since the 1980s. Collaboration is understood to provide a more holistic view of the child’s needs, lead to better care and treatment, more efficient law enforcement as well as increase knowledge in general. The aim of this presentation is to explore processes and effects, by highlighting
Rational drug design is predicated on knowledge of the three-dimensional structure of the protein-ligand complex and the thermodynamics of ligand binding. Despite the fundamental importance of both enthalpy and entropy in driving ligand binding, the role of conformational entropy is rarely addressed in drug design. In this work, we have probed the conformational entropy and its relative contributi
This study aims to present the relationships between the European Commission and a member state of the European Union during two different phases of the enforcement process of EU legislation and to explain how these relationships change. The relationships are studied and presented using a simple Principal-Agent model, in which the two main figures change sides between the different phases. The res
In the 1960:s the Swedish government approved a decision that led to the construction of about one million households during the years 1965-1975. Today these buildings are both deprived and suffer from high energy consumption. To address these problems individually is very expensive. If it instead is done simultaneously substantial savings can be made. The company AB Helsingborgshem owns and manag
The aim of this thesis is to test a fundamental assumption in Fukuyama´s theory of the miniaturization of society. That assumption is that large organisations foster a larger radius of trust than smaller organisations do. Data of individuals memberships and trust in 14 western developed countries is derived from World Value Surveys and European Value Surveys. A series of logistic regressions is ma
This thesis critically examines ethnicity matching between children awaiting adoption and prospective adopters and its discriminatory consequences for ethnic minority children under the European Convention on Human Rights. The examination is conducted against the background of the adoption controversy, and the differing views on what is in the best interests of the child. It highlights how the Eur
Abstract: This thesis treats the subject of rural development and nonfarm development in particular with a focus on community-based tourism. With support and examples from old development theories the aim is to explore how rural development in today’s world differs from the time of the industrial revolution and what that shift looks like. A case study of Buliisa district Uganda, stands as example
Hållbar utveckling är ett begrepp som fått ökat genomslag i ljuset av den pågående globaliseringen. Även om det finns flera definitioner till begreppet så innebär hållbar utveckling i sak en strävan efter en varaktig och långsiktig ekonomiskt tillväxt utan att för den sakens skull försaka sociala resurser eller skada naturens ekosystem. Då en allmän uppfattning av globaliseringen är att den bidrarThe notion of sustainable development has gained increased interest due to the on-going process of globalisation. Sustainable development as a concept refers to lasting economic growth that does not deplete social resources or harm ecosystems. As there is a general perception that globalisation brings markets and society ever so close to each other, demands are being raised to hold market actors –
This thesis studies ALM-institutions, archives, libraries and museums, together as well as separate entities, from the perspective of digital game preservation. How do game preservationists view ALM-institutions? Since digital games are part of our modern day cultural heritage, should they be part of general cultural heritage preservation strategies, and therefore the responsibility of ALM-institu
Syftet med uppsatsen är att undersöka och analysera shoppingbeteendet vad gäller mode hos svenska män och kvinnor i åldersgruppen 20 till 30 år. Vi vill undersöka vilka likheter och skillnader som finns mellan mäns och kvinnors shoppingbeteende. Uppsatsen är baserad på en kvantitativ undersökning, där vi har genomfört en enkätundersökning med 200 respondenter i målgruppen. Enkätundersökningen har
In this article, we review recent theoretical work that has complemented the extensive experimental data available for multicopper oxidases (MCO) and led to the elucidation of the reaction mechanism of this class of enzymes. The MCOs couple four one-electron oxidations of substrates at the mononuclear type 1 copper (Cu-T1) site with the four-electron reduction of dioxygen at the trinuclear copper
Popular science summary: The Battle Against Cancer Daily, people are diagnosed with cancer, a disease that brings suffering and despair. I'm sure you have heard about chemotherapy and radiation as a way of trying to treat cancer, but it is equally important to find an effective method to quickly and reliably detect a tumor at an early stage, before it is too late. In my master's thesis,
In this critical idea-analysis of the relation between Sweden and the Nordic Council the author sifts out two construcions of identity and tests if there is a discrepancy to be found between what the member state grows within its borders and also sign by being a part of the nordic cooperation. In this study the analysis dive into the origins of scandinavism and nordism and discover touching points
