Although organizational innovativeness has been regarded as propelling the market, entrepreneurial and learning orientation, as well as innovativeness relationships, much of the evidence to date remains anecdotal and speculative. In other words, little is known empirically about how these orientations contribute to a firm innovation. This leads to reductionism in modeling and thwarts the full expl
En undersökning av Stig Larssons andra roman Nyår utifrån idéer om den romantiska ironin så som de presenteras av Friedrich Schlegel och tolkas av Paul de Man samt Horace Engdahl. Uppsatsen kontrasterar synvinkeln med tidigare forskning som valt att se romanen dels som en existentialistisk roman, dels som en postmodern metafiktion.
A combination of an algorithm development with a case study, using data from the sales of the year 2009 from the studied e-commerce fashion company, provided several propositions to enhance customer value for this company. The propositions formulated address customer purchasing and returning behavior changing over time and influencing future behavior of the e-commerce customers, impacting the prof
En kvalitativ fallstudie där vi med hjälp av öppna personliga intervjuer talat med folk iledande befattningar på vårt fallföretag Procurator AB för att forma oss en bild av den strategiska förändring företaget genomgått de senaste tio åren. För att kunna beskriva de den förändring som Procurator genomgått under dessa år har vi identifierat tre nya begrepp, semidiversifiering, partiell diversifieri
Vårt arbete syftar till att bidra till en förståelse för kommunal marknadsföring som fenomen, genom att ge en bild av hur centrala aktörer inom svenska kommuner resonerar kring marknadsföringsarbetet. Materialet består av samtalsintervjuer med tretton representanter från fyra kommuner i sydvästra Skåne. Detta har vi analyserat utifrån två dimensioner; en aspekt rör vilka mål respondenterna uppfatt
Sammanfattning Hur bra är vår perception av känslor i tal och vad är det som gör att vi uppfattar skillnader mellan dem? Finns det könsrelaterade och kulturella skillnader i uppfattningen? En undersökning har genomförts för att komma närmare svaren på dessa frågor. 16 personer med svenska och 16 med isländska som modersmål deltog i ett perceptionstest där de fick lyssna på 120 svenska yttranden u
This study is a qualitative case analysis based on fieldwork and multiple semi-structured interviews in Tolima, Colombia. It investigates the community level of the Development Program with a Territorial-based Focus (DPTF) in the south of the department. The program is a result of the peace agreement that was signed between the Colombian government and the guerrilla group the Revolutionary Armed F
Fouling of direct steam injectors and holding cells is a serious problem in the heat treatment of products in the dairy industry. The fouling limits the run time of a plant and increases the time for cleaning. Both these factors will increase the processing cost. Four different direct steam injectors are tested and evaluated using the criteria fouling of the injector, the stability of the injector
Clinically, hemodilution to a hematocrit of 9% has been studied, but the effects of hypovolemia during this degree of hemodilution have not been elucidated. We studied the response to blood loss during extreme hemodilution and evaluated indicators of hypovolemia. Systemic and myocardial hemodynamics, oxygen transport, and blood lactate concentrations were measured in 12 anesthetized pigs exposed t
The Swedish crime genre is experiencing an intense period of change at the moment. Crime writers appear to be at the forefront when it comes to the issue of how to reach international audiences, how to promote books and author’s brands through events, and how to create a successful life as a writer. The working conditions, as well as the content of what is sold and marketed to the readers have gon
Background: Ketogenic diet in children with epilepsy has a considerable impact on daily life and is usually adopted for at least 3 months. Our aim was to evaluate whether the introduction of an all-liquid ketogenic diet in an outpatient setting is feasible, and if an earlier assessment of its efficacy can be achieved.Methods: The authors conducted a prospective, observational study in a consecutiv
IMPORTANCE: The impact of betaine treatment on outcome in patients with severe methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) deficiency is presently unclear. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of betaine treatment on development and survival in patients with severe MTHFR deficiency. DATA SOURCES: MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Cochrane databases between January 1960 and December 2012. STUDY SELECTION: Studi
- In certain inborn errors of metabolism, an allogeneic stem cell transplantation is able to prevent disease progression. - This is only possible when the stem cell transplantation (SCT) is performed early in life, before cerebral involvement has occurred. - In addition to bone marrow and peripheral blood, unrelated umbilical cord blood appears to be an effective stem cell source as well. - There
Only for three of the known defects in the metabolism of the amino acidsGABA, glycine, serine, and proline has a more-or-less efficient treatment been reported: the GABA catabolic defect, succinic semialdehyde dehydrogenase deficiency (vigabatrin, causing substrate depletion by inhibition of GABA transaminase); the glycine catabolic defect, nonketotic hyperglycinemia (diet combined with benzoate a
Background: Multiple Acyl-CoA-Dehydrogenase deficiency (MADD) is an inherited metabolic disorder characterized by impaired oxidation of fatty acids and some amino acids. Methods: We were interested whether children with MADD could tolerate a prolonged low-intensity exercise test and if this test could have any additional diagnostic value. Therefore, we performed a maximal exercise test and a low-i
We report two siblings with a mitochondrial respiratory chain defect who presented with progressive bulbar paralysis of childhood (Fazio-Londe disease). Mitochondrial respiratory chain defects should be considered in the differential diagnosis of this rare clinical entity.
