OBJECTIVE: To identify factors predicting response to first TNF blocking treatment course in patients with established RA with a special focus on gender differences. METHODS: Patients with active RA initiating their first treatment course of TNF-blocking therapy were enrolled. The study period was March 1999 through September 2006. The prospective protocol included information on demographics, cli
The purpose of this thesis is to study the changes that occurred within the far left and far right parties of the Nordic member states of the European Union, regarding their euroscepticism. The study aims towards both mapping out the changes of the parties political course as well as comparing the political standpoints between the countries. By comparing characteristics between existing literature
There is a trans-European transport network policy on the supranational level that aims to connect Europe with efficient, sustainable, safe and economically viable cross-national transport infrastructure. Because of this, one could expect EU funding to focus on rail infrastructure, as it has proven to be a low polluting, cost effective and an efficient mode of cross-national transport. However, as
Purpose The aim of this research paper is to provide valuable insights to existing theoretical foundation of choice of capital structure, and exploring the relationship between capital structure and firm performance through testing whether capital structure affects firm performance in the USA listed healthcare and energy companies. Theoretical perspective The presented theories cover different vi
This thesis is a comparative case study about how the Swedish municipalities Malmö and Umeå address gender aspects in their comprehensive plans. It also discusses how these municipalities approach the situation of women with diverse ethnic backgrounds in their planning strategies. According to previous research, immigrant women often have different experiences of the city than other women. The the
The following dissertation examines the relationship between the actual control of insurgent groups, FARC and AUC, in municipalities of Colombia and the subsequent performance of public services. By resorting to a novel semi-parametric, group-based-trajectory model, this paper manages to discern the de facto presence of such groups at the municipality level, which allows carrying out such examinat
Invasive species are one of the leading causes of biodiversity loss worldwide, and effective management of protected areas is one of the primary ways in which conservationists try to limit their impacts and dispersal. The round goby (Neogobius melanostomus) is a problematic invasive species in the Baltic Sea, along with other brackish waters, lakes, and rivers in Europe and North America, having b
States or regions conclude IIAs to protect and promote foreign investments, among other things, by prohibiting states’ from ‘taking’ or adopting measures equivalent to ‘taking’ the foreign investors’ property, known as expropriation. However, the state needs regulatory space, but how much is unclear and controversial. The newly concluded EU and Singapore FTA and IPA are taking a new approach to th
This thesis addresses the role of the corporate purpose in strategic financial communication from the perspective of investor relations professionals (IRPs) with particular reference to their sensemaking process. Strategic financial communication increasingly includes intangible assets that contribute to the value of the company. At the same time, more and more companies are publishing corpora
In the early 1980s, during the darkest years of Pinochet’s dictatorship, an apparently innocuous but radical decision was made: to implement an old-age pension system based on individual accounts mandatorily administered by private for-profit entities called ‘pension fund administrators’ (‘AFPs’, by its acronym in Castilian), in which the workers’ social security regarding old-age pensions was in

In this study a landscape is interpreted from an analytical and binary theoretical framework in order to contrast and extract different social formations that have been conducive to its creation. The landscape in question is a contemporary park found in Lund, Sweden, in the province of Skåne. Lurking beneath the spatial scenery of the park, histories of transgressed and repressed social formations
A search for supersymmetry (SUSY) in events with large missing transverse momentum, jets, at least one hadronically decaying tau lepton and zero or one additional light leptons (electron/muon), has been performed using 20.3 fb(-1) of proton-proton collision data at root s = 8 TeV recorded with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. No excess above the Standard Model background expectatio
The development since the beginning of the 20th century of the pollen-analytical theory and method as a palaeoecological tool for describing landscape development is outlined with reference to southern Scandinavia. Numerical methods applied since the 1980s are discussed. The aim of this paper is to provide a new perspective on the landscape development and human impact during the Holocene by apply
Aim To assess the extent to which climate change might cause changes in potential natural vegetation (PNV) across Europe.
Some dietary factors could be involved as cofactors in cervical carcinogenesis, but evidence is inconclusive. There are no data about the effect of fruits and vegetables intake (F&V) on cervical cancer from cohort studies. We examined the association between the intake of F&V and selected nutrients and the incidence of carcinoma in situ (CIS) and invasive squamous cervical cancer (ISC) in
This article is concerned with the conditions for contemporary European film production as exemplified by the particular example of Scandinavia and Sweden. The investigation is a comparative survey where particular statistics, on contemporary as well as historical audiovisual production, serves as a base for a compare and contrast study. More specifically, an attempt is made to assess and relate s
Predicted responses of transpiration to elevated atmospheric CO2 concentration (eCO2) are highly variable amongst process-based models. To better understand and constrain this variability amongst models, we conducted an intercomparison of 11 ecosystem models applied to data from two forest free-air CO2 enrichment (FACE) experiments at Duke University and Oak Ridge National Laboratory. We analysed
