Popular Abstract in Swedish Välfärd, säkerhet och fertilitetsnivån: En global analys, 1985 och 1995.Aims: This study aims to find an explanation for differentials in the level of fertility through the analysis of the recent data of seventy-eight developed and developing countries. The main approach adopted is the specification of a macroeconomic interdependent model testing hypotheses within an institutional point of view. Methods: This is a cross-sectional data analysis in a system of four equ

This article seeks to describe and understand relational interaction processes in project networks, and suggests that there is a connection between the characteristics of a project network and the type of interactions within it. We suggest that time, legitimacy and power structure determine the type of interaction processes that occur. Four case studies of service-producing project networks show t

The Swedish auxiliary "lär" may have been established at the end of the 15th century in Swedish. Its two possible origins are discussed from phonological, morphological and semantic aspects. Possible stages in its develpment are identified and discussed as cases of grammaticalization.

The object of this paper is to develop a discussion of territoriality in the built environment as a way of dealing with issues of accessibility and the public nature of urban space. A discussion of territoriality makes it possible to deal with issues of spatial control and access in detail, as well as to maintain some of the complexity in the discussion by refraining from solely analysing these is

Software architecture, the underlying structure to a software system, is an asset which can be invested in. Such investments can later be capitalized on in the form of e.g. increased flexibility and enhanced maintainability. These benefits may be gained in a system developed in one project, but are much more visible in a strategic perspective when several projects share resources. Architectural de

Being a caregiver with responsibility for someone with reduced health compared with not being a caregiver may mean different views of life satisfaction. Knowledge of what leads to reduced life satisfaction in caregivers may be helpful in interventions. Informal caregivers gainfully employed or not, aged 50–89 years, were studied with regard to life satisfaction depending on the extent of caregivin

The heterogeneity of the components of proteoglycan aggregates, their stoichiometry within the aggregate and the aggregates' stability was investigated in normal human articular cartilage specimens (age-range newborn to 63 years). Proteoglycans were extracted from tissue by sequentially extracting them with PBS alone, PBS containing oligosaccharides of hyaluronan, and PBS containing solutions of i

The evolution of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) coreceptor use has been described as the acquisition of CXCR4 use linked to accelerated disease progression. However, CXCR4-using virus can be isolated only from approximately one-half of individuals with progressive HIV-1 disease. The other half continue to yield only CCR5-using viruses (R5 phenotype) throughout the course of disease. I

1. We measured the abundance and biomass of filter-feeding microcrustacean zooplankton and calculated their grazing impact on phytoplankton biomass during summer in five shallow, mesotrophic to eutrophic lakes. For three of the lakes data exist both from years with dense submerged vegetation and low turbidity (the clearwater state), as well as from years characterised by sparse vegetation and high

Purpose of review To examine the development of recombinant FVIIa (rFVIIa); a new concept of inducing hemostasis. It was developed for use in hemophilia patients with inhibitors against FVIII or FIX with the vision to provide these patients with a therapeutical option to be used instead of FVIII or FIX. For the first time it was shown that pharmacological doses of FVIIa induced hemostasis. Recent
