Background: Within Europe many guidelines exist regarding the genetic testing of minors. Predictive and presymptomatic genetic testing of minors is recommended for disorders for which medical intervention/preventive measures exist, and for which early detection improves future medical health. Aim: This study, which is part of the larger 5th EU-framework "genetic education'' (GenEd) study, aimed to

Children with language impairment (LI) often exhibit lexical difficulties with negative consequences for school success. Lexical size and lexical organization have both been found to be affected, with problems in lexical organization exceeding those in lexical size. The research on LI has had a long-standing focus on monolingual children, resulting in assessment routines ill-suited for bilingual c

Nitrogen (N) fixation in the feather moss-cyanobacteria association represents a major N source in boreal forests which experience low levels of N deposition; however, little is known about the effects of anthropogenic N inputs on the rate of fixation of atmospheric N-2 in mosses and the succeeding effects on soil nutrient concentrations and microbial community composition. We collected soil sampl

This thesis has synchronization of Multicarrier systems, more specifically Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) systems, as the main theme. The thesis addresses two areas, the first proposing and analyzing time and frequency estimators for OFDM systems, the second investigating more practical issues around these estimators. The practical part addresses implementation and applies the e

The traditional restrictive attitude towards claim for compensation about non-pecuniary harms in both cause law and legislation become weaker even if the theoretically and practically reason behind the old exception-construction remain. This reason can best be explained by the thesis about incommensurability when it comes to compensate for some losses that money cannot compensate. To explain why t

The article dicusses the etymology of three preliterary Common Nordic prepositions: till 'to', hos 'at', från 'from'. Phonological, morphological, syntactic and semantic aspects are taken into account to explain the grammaticalization processes.

Det här är en rapport från ett Vinnovafinansierat projekt där syftet har varit att empiriskt visa på de största utmaningarna för ett ökat tillgängliggörande av öppna data och att visa på möjliga vägar fram. Gemensamt för alla öppna data är att det är maskinläsbara datamängder som kan vidareutnyttjas av vem som helst. Det finns framförallt två aspekter man behöver förhålla sig till när man pratar
