The Ease of Doing Business index, published by the World Bank, ranks countries by how easy it is to do business in them, with the goal of encouraging reforms favoring firms and economic prosperity. However, it is not guaranteed that the index is properly constructed to measure what it aims to measure, and the placement of certain countries on the index, as well as the results from a number of prev
As a result of social distancing during the Covid–19 pandemic the digital realm has been subject to an increasing amount of content where women are emphasizing their roles as wives, ‘homemakers’, and mothers, widening the online community of the ‘momosphere’. This paper examines how a particular subcategory of the momosphere perpetuates a particular vision of female gender on the social media plat
Previous research suggests that children develop an increasing concern with fairness over the course of development. Research with adults suggests that the concern with fairness has at least two distinct components: a desire to be fair but also a desire to signal to others that they are fair. We explore whether children’s developing concern with behaving fairly towards others may in part reflect a
The aim of the present study was to analyse the importance for non-typeable Haemophilus influenzae (NTHi) isolated from patients with sepsis (invasive isolates) compared to nasopharyngeal isolates from patients with upper respiratory tract infection to resist the complement-mediated attack in human serum and to correlate this to disease severity. We in detail studied and characterized cases of inv
Föreliggande undersökning syftar till att utvärdera möjligheten att använda bioimpedansspektrometri för att mäta tumör- och vävnadsrespons på strålterapi. Bioimpedansmätningar utförda med CythorLab ™ utrustade med en signalgenerator med en känd högutgångsimpedans och signalmätanordning som kan mäta spänningen som appliceras av generatorn. Styrenheten utlöser signalgeneratorn som genererar en MLS-sThe present investigation aims to evaluate the possibility of using bio-impedance spectrometry to measure tumour and tissue response to radiation therapy. Bio -impedance measurements performed with CythorLab™ equipped with a signal generator with a known high output impedance and signal measuring device able to measure the voltage applied by the generator. The control unit triggers the signal gene
Hemophilia has evolved from an often fatal hereditary bleeding disorder to a disorder for which safe and effective treatment is available. However, there are several challenges remaining in the treatment of hemophilia. Prophylaxis to prevent bleeding is costly and requires frequent intravenous injections, which are cumbersome for patients. Venous access is often difficult to achieve, especially in
Popular Abstract in Swedish När en familjemedlem drabbas av en demenssjukdom påverkas även de övriga familjemedlemmarna på något sätt. Allt mer vård och omsorg flyttar in i hemmen och de närståendes roll och funktion blir mycket centrala. Syftet med denna doktorsavhandling var att undersöka hur närstående till demenssjuka personer mår, och att planera, genomföra och undersöka effekten av en 5-vec
The increased interest in predatory bacteria due to their ability to kill antibiotic resistant bacteria has also highlighted their inherent plethora of hydrolytic enzymes, and their potential as natural sources of novel therapeutic agents and biotechnological tools. Here, we have identified and characterized a novel protease from the predatory bacterium Bdellovibrio bacteriovorus: BspE (Bdellovibr
