The present study evaluates two different screening tools–the Ability to Quickly See Quantities (AQSQ) test and the Number Sense Test (NST) targeting subitising and part-whole relationships, respectively–to examine their potential to indicate early numeracy challenges. Seventy-four kindergarten students participated, and their performances on the two tests were analyzed using correlational analyse
Whole cells of Arthrobacter simplex were immobilized in a living state in calcium alginate gel. The bacteria showed steroid-Δ1-dehydrogenase activity and the production of prednisolone from cortisol was investigated. The Δ1-dehydrogenase activity of the immobilized cells could be increased about ten-fold by incubation in nutrient media (e.g., containing 0.5% peptone abd 0.2% glucose). The reason f
The present facsimile of The Rudiments or Principles of the German flute (1729)—now republished for the first time since 1729—is a separate supplement to the comparativestudy Les Traditions en Mouvement Principes de la Flute Traversiere ou Flute d’Allemagne (1707) by Jacques Hotteterre Le Romain and The Rudiments or Principles of the German flute (1729) the first English translation of Hotteterre’
Saccharomyces cerevisiae was immobilized in calcium alginate gel together with varying concentrations of iron oxide, in the form of magnetite or a colloidal ferrite suspension, Ferrofluid™. Inclusion of magnetic material apparently had no adverse effect on the yeast cells as judged from their fermentation capacity, their operational stability as well as their ability to propagatein situ in the pre
This paper describes the preparation of a bifunctional NAD compound (Bis-NAD) and its properties as a complexing/precipitating agent for the tetrameric enzyme lactate dehydrogenase (LDH).
To plan, design and build with diversity in mind is a complex process. While goals such as inclusion, participation and social sustainability may be present in the vision for a future product, service or environment, studies show that the initial vision isn’t always realized in the end result. There are still far too many products, services and environments that are hard to access or use for parts
Introduction. The ability to read and interpret different types of text can be significantly impacted by neuropsychiatric disabilities, which affect cognitive abilities. This paper explores and reviews previous studies within library and information science on neuropsychiatric disabilities in relation to reading practices. Method. Searches were performed in LISA and LISTA to identify research on Introduction.

The present study highlights two important parameters of flute playing and musicalexpression: Sound and Articulation
A preparation of living Arthrobacter simplex cells immobilized in polyacrylamide gel, which showed steroid-Δ1-dehydrogenase activity, was studied. The entrapped microorganisms catalyzed the transformation of cortisol to prednisolone and this reaction was followed spectrophotometrically or with the aid of thin layer chromatography (TLC) and high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC). About 40% of t
The present study being the second volume of Variations on Ah! vous dirai-je, Maman (2019) highlights two important parameters of flute playing and musical expression: On Practice, Intervals and Sons filés.
The present study being the third volume of Variations on Ah! vous dirai-je, Maman (2020) highlights four important parameters of flute playing: Timbre, Expression, Resonance and Projection.
Aim: An increasing number of patients survive rectal cancer, resulting in more patients living with the side-effects of the treatment. Exploring quality of life before and after treatment enables follow-up and additional treatment to be adjusted to the patient's needs. The aim of the study was to describe the quality of life during the 24 months following diagnosis and to identify risk factors for
Abstract: Patients with colorectal cancer may lack information about the disease and treatment. In 2017, a group consultation before start of surgery was introduced at a university hospital in western Sweden to inform about the disease, treatment, and ongoing scientific studies. The primary aim of this study was to explore the experience of the patients attending the group consultation. Based on s
Aim: The factors that influence a patient's experience of a colostomy are not known. The aim of this study was to characterise stoma function, stoma-related bother and acceptance among patients operated for rectal cancer and to investigate if there were any preoperative personal factors with predictive impact on long-term stoma-related bother. Methods: The QoLiRECT (Quality of Life in RECTal cance
Aim: This study aimed to investigate if younger age at diagnosis of colorectal cancer was associated with a diagnostic delay. The secondary objective was to evaluate if symptomatology varied with age. Method: The study population consisted of the cohorts from two prospective multicentre studies conducted in Sweden and Denmark, the QoLiRECT and QoLiCOL studies. These studies investigated the qualit
