The purpose of this research was to investigate the potentiality of the Chinese market for olive oil and to assess how accessible China is for in particular small & medium sized companies in order to take the initiative on the market. The research departs from the CAP subsidy reforming European olive oil sector with 2,5 million producers on their way to a less trade distorted and more export m
This paper discusses the sanction for damages upon trademark infringement. The Swedish trademark law, 38 §, is compared to the coming proposal of the Swedish trademark law, 67 §. The final law proposal is yet to be determined; the proposal has not been published in Swedish code of statutes and is therefore not in effect. A central issue is whether the new proposal will improve the, thus far, medio
Ensamrätten till ett varumärke är en dynamisk rätt, där skyddsomfånget förändras över tid. Skyddsomfånget avgörs utefter graden av särskiljningsförmåga, vilket innebär ett varumärkes förmåga att särskilja varumärkesinnehavarens varor eller tjänster från andra näringsidkares varor eller tjänster. Vid varumärkesregistrering är särskiljningsförmåga ett absolut krav. Är fallet så att ett varumärke hel
Denna studie undersöker hur tre klassiska sångpedagoger på avancerad nivå ser på tungans funktion och hur de diagnostiserar, analyserar och arbetar med oönskade tungspänningar. Ett övergripande syfte är även att undersöka om det går att urskilja ett mönster i sångpedagogernas syn på arbetet med tungan och tungspänningar. Studien är kvalitativ och utförd med semistrukturerade intervjuer. För att ävThis study explores three classical voice teachers’ views on the function of the tongue in singing and how they diagnose, analyze and work with unwanted tongue tensions. My focus is to determine whether it is possible to find common denominators in the voice teachers’ conceptions of the tongue and unwanted behavior of the tongue. I use a qualitative approach in my study, where data is collected th
The aim of this study is to analyse the social workers assessments about economic assistance to clients with a drug- or alcoholic abuse. Furthermore this paper will also shed light on the differences in thoughts that these social workers have on economic assistance for clients with drug- or alcoholic abuse. Our questions for the study is if there are any rules and routines in the different communi
The purpose was to explore how the staff at women’s shelters handle potential conflicts as part of their overall mandate as well as in their practical day to day work. This qualitative study was based on interviews carried out with staff members at women’s shelters. The people interviewed were chosen for geographical reasons -they were staff members working in shelters in Scania- and partly for re
The urban population in developing countries was, in 2005, more than 2.3 billion people, which forms an increase by 7 times comparing to the situation in 1950. This is expected to increase even more, until it reaches 3.9 billion by 2030. A parallel urban growth results in high density cities and informal settlements and the creation of urban slums. Naturally, it is the urban poor who are not able
When building new constructions under ground level in cities it is important that the foundations of neighboring buildings are undisturbed. The regulations regarding soil deformations are hence very strict and conventional methods of predicting soil behavior is often too crude. Finite element calculations are therefore becoming an increasingly important tool used to predict soil behavior in and ar
Constructed with used plastic bottles, the eco-cooler has been widely adopted in resource-poor communities in Bangladesh and other countries. We tested the eco-cooler under controlled conditions using a scientific wind tunnel in a climatic chamber. In our tests, we used seven eco-cooler designs in 27 climate conditions typical of Bangladesh (temperatures of 40 °C, 35 °C, and 30 °C; humidity levels
While greater incentives and new funding models for antibiotic drug develooment are needed, it is unclear whether a system dependent on endlessly churning out new and ever more expensive medicines will be economically feasible and scientifically possible in the long term. Greater priority should therefore be given to implementing more permanent solutions that are not limited to slowing resistanc
Aim: To evaluate the long-term success rate of treatment with the Surgisis® (Biodesign®) anal fistula plug for complex anal fistulas, assess fistula plug failure over time and compare success rates for fistula plug between a group of patients with cryptoglandular fistula and another group with Crohn's fistula. Method: This is a single-centre study of consecutive patients treated with the Surgisis®
Introduction: Secundum atrial septal defect is one of the most common congenital heart defects. Previous paediatric studies have mainly addressed echocardiographic and few clinical factors among children associated with adverse events. The aim of this study was to identify neonatal and other clinical risk factors associated with adverse events up to one year after closure of atrial septal defect.
Aim: Formulas for empirical body surface area (BSA), which is used to estimate body size and standardise physiological parameters, may disagree in children. We compared six commonly used BSA formulas—Du Bois, Boyd, Costeff, Haycock, Meban and Mosteller—in a surgical cohort. Methods: This retrospective single-centre cohort study comprised 68 children who had corrective heart surgery at Skåne Univer
Introduction and hypothesis: Irregular or infrequent voiding due to avoiding school toilets can contribute to a number of urinary problems among school children. There is, however, a lack of studies on younger women. The aim of this study was to investigate toileting behavior and the correlation to lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) among young women (age 18–25 years). A further aim was to valida
We here describe two proteomic datasets deposited in ProteomeXchange via PRIDE partner repository [1] with dataset identifiers PXD000484 (defined as "training") and PXD000485 (defined as "test") that have been used for the development of a tamoxifen outcome predictive signature [2]. Both datasets comprised 56 fresh frozen estrogen receptor (ER) positive primary breast tumor specimens derived from
Background Accurate estimation of prognosis in multimorbid hospital patients could improve quality of care. This study aims to determine the relative importance and added value of a performance-based activities of daily living (ADL) measure with regard to mortality prediction. Methods 200 inpatients, aged over 60 years, were recruited at the Department of General Internal Medicine at a tertiary un
Mitochondria were isolated from fresh beetroots (Beta vulgaris L. cvs Rubria and Nina) by differential centrifugation followed by Percoll gradient centrifugation. These purified mitochondria oxidized external NADH, although relatively slowly (20-40 versus 100-120 nanomoles oxygen per minute times milligram protein for NADH and succinate oxidation, respectively), with respiratory control ratios of
This work provides the first morphological analysis (both at gross and fine level) of the antennal structures in the genusElater (Coleoptera, Elateridae). The typology, number and distribution patterns of the antennal sensilla in the rare saproxylicElater ferrugineus (both male and female) were studied using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The serrate antennae ofE. ferrugineus consisted of a s
