The International Industrial Relations Institute (IRI) was established in 1925 at a congress of welfare and personnel workers in Holland. At first the organisation focused attention on scientific management and industrial relations but during the Great Depression its activities began to centre upon economic planning. The IRI was dominated by Mary van Kleeck from the United States and its radicalis
The microflora of Herrgård cheese produced at three dairies was grouped by phenotypical key tests and typed by randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD). Ten cheeses from the same vat at each dairy were analysed, five after 3 and another five after 6 months of ripening. All cheeses were organoleptically graded as Herrgård after uniform national standards, and only small but characteristic differen
Background and aims: Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are ubiquitous in wetland habitats, but their diversity and distribution pattern in these habitats is poorly understood. Under varying hydrological conditions, AMF communities in roots of different wetland species may respond differently due to hydrological and to physiological differences among plants. Here we test this hypothesis.Methods: A
In the home garden, people inevitably interact with a multitude of non-human actors, including plants. Home gardeners get involved with, and affect, the growth, life and death of other individuals through activities such as weeding and pruning. In this article, the authors discuss people’’s everyday interactions with ‘‘nature’’ in their own gardens, with a specific focus on plants. Despite their r
The humoral immune response to human cytomegalovirus (CMV) membrane glycoprotein gp58/116 (gB) has been studied by establishing cell lines producing specific human monoclonal antibodies. These cell lines were generated from peripheral blood lymphocytes obtained from a healthy carrier. Hybridomas producing gp58/116-speciftc antibodies were detected by reactivity to procaryotically expressed protein
Of all live births with congenital anomalies, approximately one-third exhibit deformities ofthe head and face. Most craniofacial disorders are associated with defects in a migratory stem and progenitor cell population, which is designated the neural crest (NC). Musculocontractural Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (MCEDS) is a heritable connective tissue disorder with distinct craniofacial features; this syn
Venetoclax, a specific inhibitor of the BCL2 protein, is administered for the treatment of acute lymphoblastic leukemia. However, despite being utilized in conjunction with chemotherapy, the drug exhibits instances of resistance. The exact mechanisms responsible for this resistance remain relatively obscure. Within the context of this investigation, the study aimed to explore the involvement of an
The Ilkurlka structure is an ~12 km diameter buried circular aeromagnetic anomaly within the Officer Basin in Western Australia. Prior studies postulated a range of origins, including meteorite impact. We report the presence of pervasive deformation in the first drill cores from the structure. Brecciated sandstone and siltstone contain arrays of quartz grains with concussion fractures and rare sho
Simulations can be used as a means for extension of data collection from empirical studies. A simulation model is developed, based on the data from experiments, and new data is generated from the simulation model. This paper replicates an initial investigation by Münch and Armbrust, with the purpose of evaluating the generality of their approach. We replicate their study using data from two inspec
Circulating concentrations of metabolites (collectively called kynurenines) in the kynurenine pathway of tryptophan metabolism increase during inflammation, particularly in response to interferon-gamma (IFN-γ). Neopterin and the kynurenine/tryptophan ratio (KTR) are IFN-γ induced inflammatory markers, and together with C-reactive protein (CRP) and kynurenines they are associated with various disea
Stora företag i västvärlden har de senaste åren i ökad takt inkorporerat social rättvisa (jämställdhet, HBTQ+ rättigheter, rättvisa i rasfrågan) och miljörättvisa i deras marknadsföring och reklam. Modebranschen är en av de branscher som har använt sig särskilt mycket av social rättvise-symbolik. Denna avhandling fokuserar på artikulationer av miljö, genus, och ras genom en studie av hållbarhet ocThe corporatisation of social justice (gender justice, LGBTQI+ rights, racial justice) and environmental justice ideals in the last decades has grown immensely in western countries, exemplified by rainbow-clad ATM’s during Pride month or Nike using images of NFL player Kaepernick’s anti-racism protest action of taking a knee during the USA national anthem in a marketing campaign. One of the indust
Cancer is one of the leading causes of death globally. Novel therapeutics is urgently needed to advance treatment, especially for generalized disease where current treatment options have a poor prognosis. In particular, targeted therapy that can address genetic changes would be of great value. RNA interference is an evolutionary conserved gene regulatory mechanism that can be used by introducing e
In this thesis I focus on soundpainting-mediated musical experiences. Proposed in the mid seventies by the American musician Walter Thompson (b. 1952), soundpainting is a conventionalized artistic practice designed to create artistic works in real time. Thompson’s definition of soundpainting as a sign language is central to the present artistic inquiry, based on different moments of artistic pract
Niddmli, a 16-Mb locus within the major diabetes QTL in the diabetic GK rat, causes impaired glucose tolerance in the congenic NIDDM11 strain. Niddm1i is homologous to both human and mouse regions linked with type 2 diabetes susceptibility. We employed multiple QTL analyses of congenic F2 progeny selected for one recombination event within Niddm1i combined with characterization of subcongenic stra
Aim The goal of this European Society of Coloproctology (ESCP) guideline project is to give an overview of the existing evidence on the management of diverticular disease, primarily as a guidance to surgeons. Methods The guideline was developed during several working phases including three voting rounds and one consensus meeting. The two project leads (JKS and EA) appointed by the ESCP guideline
Objective. Involvement of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract is a rare complication of granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA) and microscopic polyangiitis (MPA). The aim was to describe frequency, diagnosis, treatment, and outcome of GI disease in a large series of patients in a single center. Methods.A database that includes all patients with GPA and MPA diagnosed since 1997 in a defined area of sou
Presupposition is surely one of the most debated notions in the linguistic and philosophical literature. Historically, there are two main theoretical approaches to presuppositions. According to the first one, the semantic view, presuppositions are semantic implications, that is, truth-conditional relations between propositions and statements. In this sense, presuppositions are considered propertie
