In the construction industry, projects are organized with many different subcontractors that carry out the day-to-day undertakings. There is generally a lack of skilled labour in the construction industry that makes construction lack productivity and become a dangerous workplace. Skilled subcontractors are a neglected group of potential innovators in this industry. The main reason why they are ver
Introduction: The 2024 ISTH clinical practice guideline (CPG) for treatment of congenital haemophilia, the NBDF-McMaster Guideline on Care Models for Haemophilia Management, and ASH ISTH NBDF WFH guidelines on the diagnosis and management of VWD all utilised GRADE methodology. Aim: Discuss missed opportunities and the methodological approach of the ISTH Guideline in contrast to how GRADE was previ
Traits that affect organismal fitness are often very genetically variable. This genetic variation is vital for populations to adapt to their environments, but it is also surprising given that nature (after all) “selects” the best genotypes at the expense of those that fall short. Explaining the extensive genetic variation of fitness-related traits is thus a longstanding puzzle in evolutionary biol
Regardless of our socio-juridical position in or outside of organisations, this much is certain: even if not formally employed, we all, Agamben’s Homo Sacer series and the bulk of his other texts imply, are subject to a violence that, if differentially, imprisons us in a world in which ‘work’ reigns supreme. But what precisely is ‘work’?

Context. Star clusters, composed of stars born from the same molecular cloud, serve as invaluable natural laboratories for understanding the fundamental processes governing stellar formation and evolution. Aims. This study aims to investigate correlations between the Mean Interdistance (Di), Mean Closest Interdistance (Dc) and Median Weighted Central Interdistance (Dcc) with the age of star cluste
The aim of my essay was to compare women's and men's ways out of drug abuse, and with help from chosen theories and concepts explain and understand women's situation. My research started with a few questions concerning differences between women's and men's changing process and the role of the social network in this. I also wanted to find out how the women experienced other peop
Calbindin D-28k (calbindin) is a cytoplasmic protein expressed in the central nervous system, which is implied in Ca2+ homeostasis and enzyme regulation. A combination of biochemical methods and mass spectrometry has been used to identify post-translational modifications of human calbindin. The protein was studied at 37 degrees C or 50 degrees C in the presence or absence of Ca2+. One deamidation
Intergenerationella trauma, hur tidigare generationers traumatiska upplevelser påverkar nästkommande generationerna, har blivit ett växande intresseområde för olika discipliner och är relevant för psykoterapeuter. Följande studies syfte var att undersöka psykodynamiskt inriktade psykoterapeuters förståelse och arbete med intergenerationella trauman utifrån en kvalitativ ansats. I studien redovisasIntergenerational trauma, how previous generations traumatic experiences effect the coming generations, has become an increasing area of interest for different disciplines and is relevant for psychotherapists. The aim of this study was to explore psychodynamic oriented psychotherapists understanding and work with intergenerational trauma within a qualitative framework. Five psychotherapists experi
Narcotics have been the subject of hard legal regulation and zero tolerance policies in Sweden for more than three decades. This bachelor thesis seeks to examine the ideological grounds which the swedish druglaws are founded upon and maintained through. In order to identifiy these ideologies and understand their impact on the legaslative process a critical discourse analysis have been conducted wi
Some of the shortcomings of the Standard Model of particle physics are the 'unnatural' value of the mass of the Higgs boson and the fact that the model cannot account for the process of baryogenesis - a mechanism which generates the observed asymmetry between matter and anti-matter in the Universe. The former is related to the fundamental scalar nature of the Higgs boson, connected to quad
Arctic archaeologists generally accept that Dorset Paleo-Inuit (Tuniit) (c. 800 BC-1300 AD) toolkits exhibit high levels of typological uniformity across Arctic Canada and Greenland. This understanding implies that the artifacts were likely produced according to a standardized set of practices that were somehow ÷einforced over time and shared across the isolated sites and communities inhabiting th
Iran is mainly located in the arid and semiarid climate zone and seriously affected by desertification. This is a severe environmental problem, which results in a persistent loss of ecosys-tem services that are fundamental to sustaining life. Process understanding of this phenomenon through the evaluation of important drivers is, however, a challenging work. The main purpose of this study was to p
Cold ventilated attics often have mould problems in Sweden. This is valid both for old and sometimes newly built attics. Increased insulation on the attic floor is assumed to increase the problem. To investigate this, numerical 1D models like WUFI or WUFI+ are typically used. These models give results but the physical processes are not so transparent for the user due to the complex numerical techn
A small bedrock ridge called Cuff Cape, protruding from an ice field in the inner part of Granite Harbour, Victoria Land, Antarctica, carries a system of moraine ridges. Cuff Cape was during deglaciation bounded to the south by a terrestrial, slow-retreat ice margin and towards the north and west by a faster-retreat, marine-based ice margin. Based on studies of contemporary processes along the pre
Seed dressing, i.e., the treatment of crop seeds with insecticides and/or fungicides, aiming to protect seeds from pests and diseases, is widely used in conventional agriculture. During the growing season, those crop fields often receive additional broadband herbicide applications. However, despite this broad utilization, very little is known on potential side effects or interactions between these
Spatial Data Infrastructure (SDI) provides a platform for spatial data sharing and is a key for sustainable development. Developing countries, including Tanzania, are at different stages of implementing SDIs. The importance and advantage of implementation lie in the fact that considerable funds can be saved by avoiding duplication of data, and improving quality of decisions making as well as publi
Understanding about regional versus local changes in vegetation is critical in answering archaeological questions, in particular at a time when humans are assumed to have caused higher disturbances at local scales rather than regional scales; this is the case during the Neolithic. The aim of this paper is to assess the impact of Neolithic land use on regional and local vegetation dynamics, plant c
Background: The receptors for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) are increased in atherosclerotic plaques. Soluble (s)RAGE decreases, whereas the extracellular newly identified receptor for advanced glycation end products (EN-RAGE) increases inflammatory responses mediated by RAGE. The aims were to explore whether sRAGE, EN-RAGE and the EN-RAGE/sRAGE ratio, were associated with the use of lipi
Diabetic muscle atrophy is an inflammation-related complication of type-2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Even though regular exercise prevents further deterioration of atrophic status, there is no effective mediator available for treatment and the underlying cellular mechanisms are less explored. In this study, we investigated the therapeutic potential of MCC950, a specific, small-molecule inhibitor of
Ultra-safe organizations, such as Air Navigation Service Providers (ANSPs), have extensive safety management organizations and generally excellent safety records with very few serious incidents and accidents. This development has been supported by increasingly advanced and effective methods. However, recent research has uncovered how the application of even advanced incident investigation methods
