Icelandic case agreement suggests that nominative case is active in PRO infinitives in much the same way as in finite clauses, thus posing a difficult and a long-standing problem for generative (GB and minimalist) case theory and the PRO Theorem. In this article, I examine the Icelandic facts in detail, illustrating that the unmarked and common nominative morphology in Icelandic PRO infinitives is
To identify previously unknown genetic loci associated with fasting glucose concentrations, we examined the leading association signals in ten genome-wide association scans involving a total of 36,610 individuals of European descent. Variants in the gene encoding melatonin receptor 1B (MTNR1B) were consistently associated with fasting glucose across all ten studies. The strongest signal was observ
A measurement is presented of the inclusive cross-section for b-jet production in association with a Z boson in pp collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of root s = 7 TeV. The analysis uses the data sample collected by the ATLAS experiment in 2010, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of approximately 36 pb(-1). The event selection requires a Z boson decaying into high P-T electrons or muons,
The aim of this dissertation is to present a history of sex education films in Sweden, from their beginnings until the late 1970s, relating the films to the changing historical context of the Swedish welfare society. Within this framework, the dissertation explores two main sets of questions. First, utilizing a contextual understanding of genre, the dissertation analyzes how the films were produce
The article has become a classic in american rhetorical scholarship. It criticizes four major misconceptions about classical rhetoric often found in contemporary rhetorical scholarship. The misconceptions are traced to an incomplete and faulty understanding of Aristotle's rhetoric.
Objectives: Blood haemoglobin (Hb) concentration declines in elderly men, whilst the level of the adipocyte-derived protein adiponectin increases with age. The association between erythropoiesis and adiponectin in elderly men is unclear. The aim of this study was to determine whether adipokines such as adiponectin and leptin are associated with anaemia and Hb concentration in elderly community-dwe
Objective: The rate of failed interlock blood alcohol content (BAC) tests is a strong predictor of recidivism post-interlock and a partial proxy for alcohol use. Alcohol biomarkers measured at the start of an interlock program are known to correlate well with rates of failed BAC tests over months of interlock use. This study evaluates 2 methods of measuring low blood levels of the biomarker phosph
The goal for this PhD thesis is to evaluate the effect different SCMs has on the salt frost scaling resistance regarding air content required in well hydrated carbonated and non-carbonated concrete which contains admixtures. To evaluate this, freeze-thaw scaling tests, image analysis of the air void structure in hardened concrete, measurements with an air void analyser and low-temperature calorime
Abstract in UndeterminedThis article points to four worrisome aspects of the Court’s reasoning in Rantsev v. Cyprus and Russia. First, the Court takes on board the concept of ‘human trafficking’ without offering any meaningful legal analysis as to the elements of the human trafficking definition. Second, the adoption of the human trafficking framework implicates the ECtHR in anti-immigration and a
The role of inflammation in atherosclerotic disease is well established, but the role of autoantibodies against modified apolipoprotein (apo) B-100 remains unclear. The metabolic syndrome is associated with a proinflammatory state, a predominance of small dense low-density lipoprotein (LDL) particles, and an increased risk for atherosclerotic diseases. Previous studies have shown specific autoanti
Bakgrund: Den vanligaste typen av skador inom dessa idrotter är knäskador, där främre korsbandsskador (ACL-skador) är den vanligaste typen av intra-artikulära knäskador. Tidigare studier har visat att flest skador uppkommer i tävlingssammanhang samt att de ofta innebär en lång frånvaroperiod. För att minska knäskadeincidensen har flertalet preventiva träningsprogram framtagits. Syfte/frågeställnin
Bakgrund: Prestationsförbättring i idrott utgörs av träningsbelastning kombinerat med optimal återhämtning. För hård träning och bristande återhämtning kan resultera i en förlorad återhämtningsförmåga vilket kan leda till ett så kallat överträningssyndrom, Over Training Syndrome (OTS). Symtomen för OTS är individuella och kan uttrycka sig både fysiologiskt och psykologiskt. OTS kan förekomma inom
Sammanfattning BAKGRUND. Muskuloskeletala besvär är ett ökande problem i världen, med stora omkostnader som resultat för samhället. Vid muskuloskeletala besvär tenderar människor att söka hjälp i öppenvård. Fysioterapeutisk öppenvårdsbedömning och behandling har visat sig vara ett effektivt och patientsäkert alternativ som första instans för muskuloskeletala besvär, men ställer höga krav på yrkesr
This thesis attempts to understand how digital representations of the body understand and mediate the digital and Real body. In order to approach this inquiry, this thesis will engage with and compare debates regarding the semiotic register of the index, and how it has been understood in relation to analogue photography versus digital media. This inquiry will be guided by an investigation into the
The Planes of Satellites Problem is an open question within the field of galaxy formation. It is based on the observations that the Milky Way's satellites, as well as those around the Andromeda (M31) galaxy, align in planes. This applies both to the satellites' positions lying close to the plane of best fit, and to the satellites' orbital planes aligning within a narrow angle. Such pla
Den kungliga nyhetsbevakningen utifrån den mediala framställningen av ingifta kungligheter likt prinsessan Sofia, tidigare Hellqvist och prins Daniel, tidigare Westling har en trend om att vara både stereotyp och beroende av de problem som den fas av förkungligande innebär. Detta synliggörs främst utifrån prinsessan Sofias bakgrund inom kommersiella och skandalösa framträdanden både i dokusåpan Pa
In this Master’s thesis project, a block copolymer (BCP) film was used in combination with sequential infiltration synthesis and etching to manufacture a nanoimprint lithography stamp consisting of silicon. The BCP film was designed to contain perpendicularly aligned hexagonally placed cylinders, a pattern that will later be investigated for antibacterial properties after being transferred via nan
I det här arbetet har jag undersökt hur man med hjälp av mjuka värden, inspirerade av arkitekten Herman Hertzberger, kan förvalta den outnyttjade tomten Gråbröder 20 i Malmö. Min rapport redovisar de tre steg jag valt att dela in mitt arbete i: analys, gestaltningsprinciper och gestaltning, för att skapa en levande boendemiljö där människan, välmående och spontana möten står i centrum. Målet var aIn my master thesis I have examined how, with the help of social values inspired by the architect Herman Hertzberger, the vacant plot on Gråbröder 20 in Malmö can be developed. My report accounts for the three steps I have divided my work into: analysis, design principles and design, in the pursuit of creating a vibrant living environment where people, their well-being, and spontaneous meetings ar
