Urvalskriterier för studien var att psalmförfattaren är representerad i Den svenska psalmboken 1986 eller Psalmer i 2000-talet, kan välThe purpose of this master's thesis in practical theology, with a focus on hymnology, is to investigate how the life and environment of hymn writers influence the composition of contemporary hymn texts within the Church of Sweden. This is achieved through qualitative interviews with established hymn writers. The selection criteria for the study included the hymn writer’s representation in the

Popular Abstract in Swedish Streptococcus pyogenes (GAS) är en viktig sjukdomsframkallande bakterie som orsakar alltifrån lindriga infektioner som halsfluss (tonsillit) och svinkoppar (impetigo) till livshotande djupa infektioner som nekrotiserande fasceit eller ”Toxic shock syndrom”. På grund av det snabba sjukdomsförloppet i de livshotande infektionerna har streptokockerna fått beteckningen ”mörA distinguishing feature of Streptococcus pyogenes (GAS) is their ability to resist phagocytosis in whole human blood in the absence of type-specific antibodies, a property that is dependent on the expression of the surface associated M proteins. A common characteristic of M proteins is their interaction with a variety of host proteins including the complement regulatory protein factor H (FH) and

Popular Abstract in Swedish Vad arbetar en analytisk kemist med? Exempel på kemiska analyser är att en idrottsman ska dopingtestas eller att eventuella föroreningar i vattnet från en bäck ska bestämmas. Den analytiska kemistens problemställning är vanligtvis att identifiera (kvalitativ analys) och mäta upp (kvantitativ analys) innehållet i ett prov. Ofta är de intressanta ämneshalterna mycket lågaCapillary electrophoresis is characterised by high separation efficiency, applicability to a wide range of compounds, small sample and solvent consumption and simple instrumentation. To improve sensitivity using on-line absorbance detectors, which are hampered by the short optical path length, sample volumes in the microlitre range were concentrated to nanolitre volumes either off-line or on-line.

Popular Abstract in Swedish Spionen var under kalla kriget en gäckande gestalt som i egenskap av sin synliga osynlighet blev en orienteringspunkt för vardagliga fantasier. Han – för denna det kalla krigets emblematiska figur var oftast en han – blev i flera avseenden just en samtidens mittpunkt i vilken en tudelad världsbild synliggjordes. Mannen i mitten handlar om Spionen i svensk kallakrigskultThe aim of this thesis is to contribute to a broadening of perspectives on Cold War Sweden. It is a study not primarily of the explicit political events or debates, but of the everyday cultural narratives of the era. During the long 1950s, Swedish Cold War imagination was largely characterised by a determination to maintain total security in the response to the threats that loomed on all sides, an

During 2012 - 2013 a study to evaluate conventional X-ray procedures and patient doses in Klintzi and Novozibkov areas of Bryansk region, Russia, was conducted. X-ray operation parameters included quality assurance of equipment, collection of procedure parameters and clinical practice evaluation. Effective doses were calculated for each selected procedure and dose distributions were established. 7

I denna artikel analyseras muntligt gestaltade erfarenheter hos 27 överlevande efter kriget i nordvästra Bosnien under 1990-talet. Syftet är att dels beskriva hur de intervjuade framställer det sociala fenomenet «offerskap», dels analysera diskursiva mönster som medverkar i konstruktionen av kategorin «offer». Aktörernas anspråk på statusen «offer» skapar en konkurrens om offerrollen efter kriget.The aim of this article is to analyse verbally portrayed experiences of 27 survivors of the 1990’s war in northwestern Bosnia. My focus is on describing how the interviewees portray the social phenomenon of «victimhood» and on analysing the discursive patterns that contribute to construction of the category «victim». When, after the war, different actors claim this «victim» status, it sparks a com

This paper provides a systematic review of scholarly literature concerning the enforcement of children’s rights in the classroom context and school management. The literature review is based on a systematic review methodology the authors developed drawing on the methods and guidelines used in the medical sciences over the last 15 years. Forty-two articles published between 1990 and 2014 were selec

The attitude of teachers towards students can vary substantially in relation to different factors, such as educational background, pedagogical training, teaching methods, etc. In this paper, we explore the impact of negative role-models on future teaching. In particular, past experiences of teachers as students as well as the contextual influence of other teachers on their future teaching has been

HAMLET (human alpha-lactalbumin made lethal to tumor cells) is a tumoricidal complex consisting of partially unfolded protein and fatty acid, and was first identified in casein fractions of human breast milk. The complex can be produced from its pure components through a modified chromatographic procedure where pre-applied oleic acid binds with partially-unfolded alpha-lactalbumin on the stationar

Popular Abstract in Swedish Ett bröstmjölksprotein som dödar tumörceller Denna avhandling beskriver den tumörcell- och bakteriedödande effekten av ett proteinkomplex från bröstmjölk. Proteinkomplexet, en veckningsvariant av humant alfa-laktalbumin, inducerar apoptos (programmerad celldöd) i tumörceller och visar sig ha liknande effekter även mot bakterier. Amning förser inte bara barnet med optiHuman milk contains a vast array of bioactive molecules, with nutritional and protective functions. This thesis describes the effects of a human milk protein complex, MAL, on tumour cells and bacteria. During our studies on the anti-adhesive properties of human milk we observed that a milk fraction killed tumour cells. The morphology of the cells indicated apoptotic cell death and this was verifie

Recent studies have identified a number of transcriptional regulators, including E2A, early B-cell factor 1 (EBF1), FOXO1, and paired box gene 5 (PAX5), that promote early B-cell development. However, how this ensemble of regulators mechanistically promotes B-cell fate remains poorly understood. Here we demonstrate that B-cell development in FOXO1-deficient mice is arrested in the common lymphoid

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disease involving many organ systems. The cause is not known, but a complex combination of environmental and genetic factors seems to be involved. In SLE upregulation of type I interferons, a hyperactive B-cell response, presence of autoantibodies against modified nuclear components, increased complement consumption, increased apoptosis and decre

Selective immunoglobulin A deficiency is the most common primary immunodeficiency disorder that is strongly overrepresented among patients with celiac disease (CD). IgG antibodies against tissue transglutaminase (tTG) and deamidated gliadin peptides (DGP) serve as serological markers for CD in IgA deficient individuals, although the diagnostic value remains uncertain. The aim of this study was to

Purpose: The purpose of this research paper is to study the promotion of non-profitable products by exploring the greater good initiatives of country branding in terms of brand identity and brand image. Design/methodology/approach: The research paper takes a qualitative approach and combines primary and secondary data. The primary data was collected through an interview. The secondary data is bas

In the 1880s, the Anglo-German feminist freethinker Mathilde Blind wrote a series of poems inspired by her residence in Manchester. Our chapter reads Blind’s Manchester poems through the lens of the atmospheric humanities, focusing on how these poems show the entanglement of the human with both urban and natural environments, gesture towards an imagined future for those marginalized in industrial

Popular Abstract in Swedish En välfungerande andning med utbyte av syrgas och koldioxid mellan kroppen och omgivningen är en förutsättning för liv. För att detta gasutbyte ska fungera krävs bl. a. att ventilationen, dvs. in- och utflödet av luft i lungorna, står i balans med blodflödet genom lungorna. I lungorna tar blodet emot syrgas som behövs för att cellerna i kroppen ska fungera och samtidigtRespiration relies, among other things, on the balance between regional ventilation and perfusion in the lungs. There are many cardiopulmonary diseases, such as pulmonary embolism (PE), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and left heart failure (LHF), which can affect respiration negatively. The diagnosis of PE, COPD and LHF follows separate diagnostic pathways. However, the symptoms that
