UNLABELLED: To clarify the role of the TNFRSF11B gene encoding osteoprotegerin (OPG), in Paget's disease of bone (PDB) we studied TNFRSF11B polymorphisms in an association study of 690 UK subjects and in a worldwide familial study of 66 kindreds. We found that the G1181 allele of TNFRSF11B, encoding lysine at codon 3 of the OPG protein, predisposes to both sporadic and familial PDB.INTRODUCTION: P
Gebel el Silsila (Mountain of Chain) is located between Kom Ombo and Edfu on both banks of the Nile where it reaches its narrowest point. The site is generally known for its many Pharaonic cenotaphs, stelai and the speos of Horemheb, but it was once also the world’s largest quarry. As such it was renowned for its high quality sandstone, and the stone was extracted and transported to all over Upper
When Jean-Francois Mayet was elected mayor of the French city of Châteauroux in 2001, he inherited a mass transit system that was functional but under-used by residents. The city, located about halfway between Paris and Bordeaux, had collective aims that were similar to other medium-sized cities in Europe: to reduce the city’s ecological footprint while improving the local economy and fostering a
A century after the Spanish Flu, the COVID-19 pandemic has brought renewed attention to socioeconomic and occupational differences in mortality in the earlier pandemic. The magnitude of these differences and the pathways between occupation and increased mortality remain unclear, however. In this paper, we explore the relation between occupational characteristics and excess mortality among men duri
There are many different variations in sex characteristics, some of which have implications for how the body goes through puberty. This paper draws from critical disability studies and childhood and youth studies to understand the teenage experiences and aspirations of young people with variations in sex characteristics, focusing particularly on navigating puberty. We undertook a reflexive themati
Regions around the world employ cluster-based policies as part of their industrial, innovation and development policy mixes.

It is a common strategy to predict oncogenes by differential analysis between somatic mutations and background mutations. Most previous methods only utilize mutations in the cancer population to model its background mutation, which have an obvious bias. A recent method, DiffMut, improves this issue by conducting differential mutational analysis with both mutations in the cancer population and the

Public space is fundamental to democracy. It is a common arena that we all have the right to use. In Urban Creativity, nine European researchers from differentdisciplines describe how subcultures utilize public space. The authors draw on their backgrounds in different fields, including Sociology, Economy, Law, Art History & Visual Studies, and Urban Studies, to investigate unauthorized phenome
Uppsatsen syftar till att undersöka hur stor möjlighet arbetsgivare på Sveriges arbetsplatser har att styra över sina anställdas utseenden i form av att uppställa utseendekrav samt klädkoder. Arbetsledningsrätten är långtgående i Sverige och ger arbetsgivare rätt att leda och fördela arbetet i sin verksamhet som det behagar dem. Även om arbetsledningsrätten är genomgripande är den inte obegränsad.The purpose of this essay is to establish the extent to which employers in Sweden's workplaces are able to regulate their employees' appearance through the implementation of dress codes and appearance rules. In Sweden, businesses have a fairly broad range of options for how they choose to organize and allocate work inside their organizations. Although the extensive labor management rights
The human right violations in Kurdish cities in 90s is the focus point of the Kurdish documentary cinema. Although there are several documentary studies on trauma, little attention has been given to experiences of audiences. The aim of this study is to explore the ways in which the audience engages with the documentary in the context of The Well (Bîr, dir. Veysi Altay, 2018), which is one of the i
Understanding the content of a software project is a complex endeavour. While the Rust programming language promises developers a safer programming language, a program may still include vulnerable code through its dependencies. In this thesis we present a CLI tool, cargo-indicate, to query the dependency tree of Rust projects using standard GraphQL. This tool aggregates data from a variety of sour
This thesis investigates the outcomes of economic divergence during the neoliberal period in Guatemala and Costa Rica (1985-2020). The application of social capabilities: transformation, autonomy, inclusion and accountability allowed us not only to show the diverted social and economic paths, but also to inspect further and delve into the complex social dynamics in place. There was significant pro
Gemensamt för alla människor är att vi någon gång måste konfronteras med döden och dess rättsverkningar. Antingen går en släkting till oss bort eller så är det vi själva som har vår bortgång nära förestående. Syftet med denna uppsats är att få ökad kunskap om hur grunderna i den legala arvsordningen skiljer sig åt mellan Sverige och Danmark i olika familjekonstellationer. Utgångspunkten är följandOne day we all must face death and its legal consequences. It is either in our own near future, or a relative may pass away. The aim with this thesis is to learn about the fundamental differences in inheritance law between Sweden and Denmark in different family constellations. The thesis is based on these constellations: Married couples with joint children, married couples with children from a pre
The aim of this study was to research how school counselors work and how they interpret and implement the existing guidelines from Skolverket and Socialstyrelsen. The study is also aimed to investigate what circumstances are influential for the school counselors' ability to implement the guidelines. The method of semi-structured interviews was chosen to allow us to investigate how school couns
Canada is one of the only nations in the world that offers universal health coverage that excludes outpatient prescription drug services. This means that citizens may find out their diagnosis free of charge, but must incur out-of-pocket expenses for prescription drugs dispensed outside of hospitals. This paper examines the prevalence of prescription drug coverage in Canada across various socioecon
This master thesis is part of the development of a new industrial machine. The machine is a fully automated transplanting machine for the forest industry and will be used by nurseries around the world. Nurseries grow seedlings and sell them when they have grown enough to be planted in the ground. The machine being developed moves plants from a tray with small cells to a tray with bigger cells. Thi
Astrophysicists have long studied the early Universe in an attempt to explain where galaxies, and by proxy us, come from. In this thesis, the global properties of galaxies at z = 3, where star formation plays a large part , are studied when changing the stellar feedback strength and resolution in simulations. The simulation code used is based on RAMSES, using a similar setup to VINTERGATAN. Four s
The snowmelt at a point is estimated through a simplified energy budget. From the energy equation a degree-day method is derived. The rate of snowmelt isfound as a constant multiplied by the temperature excess over an equilibrium temperature which depends on solar radiation.The snowmelt events in Kiruna (3 years) and LuleH (4 years) are analysed utilizing energy balance computations and the degree
