The concept of sharing is commonly employed in brand narratives of platform-based start-ups to recruit users. This paper examines sharing as a brand ideology and how it is enacted by companies in the startup phase of business. As the sharing start-ups’ business model is dependent on transaction fees generated on the platforms, traction (i.e. a high volume of users) is critical for success. By anal
The European pulp and paper industry (PPI) directly emits 31.9 Mton CO2 (2016) and indirectly 12.3 and 5 Mton CO2 from purchased electricity and transport respectively. It also accounts for 68 Mton of biogenic CO2 emissions. The PPI is a mature industry with overall stagnating market demand in the past ten years and relatively high levels of recycling. Forest countries like Sweden and Finland domi
Popular Abstract in Swedish Vårt immunförsvar måste ständigt vara redo att försvara oss mot angrepp utifrån. Det måste kunna agera selektivt för att skydda oss mot främmande mikroorganismer som virus och bakterier. Om immunförsvaret istället missbedömer kroppens egna celler för att vara inkräktare och attackerar dessa, inträffar det vi kallar autoimmunitet. De autoimmuna sjukdomarna har ökat överaAim: The general objective of the present research was to study the association between type 1 diabetes and celiac disease, and the effects of dietary gluten on the risk of developing type 1 diabetes. More specific aims were as follows: to estimate the prevalence of celiac-disease-associated autoantibodies in children with type 1 diabetes; to study the connection between non-HLA genetic risk marke
OBJECTIVES: To describe the outcome of growth-restricted fetuses with absent or reversed end-diastolic flow (ARED) in the umbilical artery delivered on fetal indication before 30 gestational weeks.METHODS: Between 1998 and 2004, 42 fetuses with intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) and ARED in the umbilical artery were delivered liveborn by Cesarean section on fetal indication before 30 gestation
The equilibrium self-assembly of cationic surfactants in bulk solution and at negatively-charged silica substrates is investigated experimentally and theoretically. The surfactants used are quaternary ammonium salts, both monovalent (DoTAB, TTAB, CTAB) and divalent (DoPPDAC). The adsorption of DoPPDAC to silica, in the absence or presence of added electrolyte, is studied with the technique of null
Background: Adjuvant chemotherapy is standard treatment for other solid tumours, but to date has not proven effective in prostate cancer. Objective: o evaluate whether six cycles of docetaxel alone improve biochemical disease-free survival after radical prostatectomy for high-risk prostate cancer. Design, setting, and participants: Open-label, randomised multinational phase 3 trial. Enrolment of 4
The ability to detect and quantitate biomolecules in complex solutions has always been highly sought-after within natural science; being usedfor the detection of biomarkers, contaminants, and other molecules of interest. A commonly used technique for this purpose is the Enzyme-linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA), where often one antibody is directed towards a specific target molecule, and a second
This work represents a critical re-examination of the application of dynamic light scattering (DLS)–based tracer particle microrheology to measure the zero shear viscosity of aqueous solutions of different proteins up to very high concentrations. It is demonstrated that a combination of surface-functionalized tracer particles, the use of the so-called 3D-DLS technique, and carefully chosen paramet
Objective. To evaluate the prognostic impact of cytogenetic findings in renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Patients and methods. Tumour cytogenetics, histomorphology, DNA ploidy and S-phase fraction, stage, size, and grade were related to survival in 50 consecutive patients with RCC. The mean follow-up was 3.9 years (median 4.2. range 0-8.8). Results. The predictive probability for recurrence-free surviv
Sulfite oxidase is a mononuclear molybdenum enzyme that oxidises sulfite to sulfate in many organisms, including man. Three different reaction mechanisms have been suggested, based on experimental and computational studies. Here, we study all three with combined quantum mechanical (QM) and molecular mechanical (QM/MM) methods, including calculations with large basis sets, very large QM regions (80
The association between somatic cell count (SCC) and daily milk yield in different stages of lactation was investigated in cows free of clinical mastitis (CM). Data were recorded between 1989 and 2004 in a research herd, and consisted of weekly test-day (TD) records from 1,155 lactations of Swedish Holstein and Swedish Red cows. The main data set (data set A) containing 36,117 records excluded TD
Despite the average 5-year survival rate exceeding 85%, childhood cancer is still the most common cause of disease-related death among children in Sweden. A cancer diagnosis is profoundly traumatic not only for children themselves, but also for the entire family, particularly the primary caregivers, their parents. This project aimed to investigate the extent to which a childhood cancer diagnosis a
This paper presents an invariant formulation and analysis of the Agent-action-Objective (AaO) kinematics in terms of David Hestenes theory of rotational dynamics. Accordingly, the term invariant refers to a coordinate-free establishment of structure. Its major aim is to make evident that Natural Language employs its own intrinsic systems of coordinates, but these are generally unknown. In particul

The purpose of this study is to examine how education policies directed towards migrant students are carried out in practice, using a school in Beijing as a case study. Equal education for all is a concept that has come late to China despite the progressive attitudes towards education put forth by Confucius over 3000 years ago. Along with the economic reforms of the 1970’s and China’s emergence in
Den 1 juli 2018 trädde en ny lag om våldtäktsbrottet i kraft baserad på frivillighet. Överväganden kring ett införande av en samtyckesbaserad lagstiftning har pågått och omdebatterats under lång tid och två gånger tidigare har frågan utretts i 1998 års sexualbrottskommitté och 2008 års sexualbrottsutredning. Efter lagändringen 2018 är det tillräckligt med avsaknad av frivillighet vid deltagande i The 1st of July 2018, a new legislation regarding rape came into force, based on consent and voluntary participation. Considerations regarding a consent-based legislation has been ongoing and disputed, not least during the last century and twice before the question has been investigated in the 1998 sex crime committee and the 2008 sex crime investigation. Since the change it is no longer required
Hur uppfattar svenska elever, från grundskolan till gymnasiet, storlek och skala i rymden? Det ska projektet Storlek och skala, som drivs vid Nationellt Resurscentrum för fysik (NRCF) vid Lunds universitet. Sedan 2020 har data samlats in via en webbenkät som getts ut till lärare och deras elever runt om i Sverige. Studier om elevers uppfattningar om rymden är ett stort område i internationell forThis study aims to investigate how students in Swedish upper secondary school conceptualize sizes and distances of some astronomical objects, such as planets and stars, as well as the students’ general knowledge of the objects themselves. The study uses a constructivist framework and explores how well the students’ conceptions match the scientific facts and definitions, and what misconceptions and
I stygnen i våra kläder kan man ofta finna spår av barnarbete. Klädindustrin i Bangladesh är landets största exportsektor.
