The focus of this paper is on how Art and Music School leaders talk about the inclusion of children and adolescents with mixed abilities in relation to policy. A starting point is that both an investigation and earlier studies have revealed inclusion problems within Art and Music Schools.The aim of this paper is to investigate the discourses that emerge when Sweden’s Art and Music School leaders t

Nineteenth-century British philanthropic ideas were implemented in Sweden through the agency of translation. The present investigation of translation as a form of nineteenth-century social-reform activism takes the form of a case study of the Swedish translation of two texts by British social purity campaigner Ellice Hopkins (1836–1904).

Supersymmetric orbifold projection of N = 1 SQCD with relatively small number of flavors (N(f) ≤ N(c)) is considered. The purpose is to check whether orbifolding commutes with the infrared limit. On the one hand, one considers the orbifold projection of SQCD and obtains the low-energy description of the resulting theory. On the other hand, one starts with the low-energy effective theory of the ori

Background The influence of familial factors on the prognosis of heart failure (HF) is unknown. This nationwide follow‐up study aimed to determine familial mortality risks of HF among Swedish siblings hospitalized for HF. Methods and Results We linked several Swedish nationwide registers for individuals aged 0 to 80 years. The study population consisted of 373 people hospitalized for HF for the

The aim of this study was to clarify how positive and negative emotions are related to the common attitude-change effect in cognitive dissonance research. Drawing on appraisal theories of emotion, and emotion-regulation research, we predicted that negative emotions would be inversely related to attitude change, whereas positive emotions would be positively related to attitude change in the inducedThe aim of this study was to clarify how positive and negative emotions are related to the common attitude-change effect in cognitive dissonance research.

Dendrimers have been shown to be capable of interfering in vitro with the formation of the amyloid fibrillar structures typically related to the onset and development of the so-called conformational diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease and prion diseases. This makes dendrimers potentially useful as compounds that could prevent or inhibit the action of the cytotoxic amyloid species. In the present

Objective: To estimate the effect of locally tailored clinical guidelines on intrapartum care and perinatal outcomes among women with severe hypertensive disorders in pregnancy (sHDP). Methods: A pre–post study at Zanzibar's low-resource Mnazi Mmoja Hospital was conducted. All labouring women with sHDP were included at baseline (October 2014 to January 2015) and at 9–12 months after implementation

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is characterized by pathological aggregation of β-amyloid peptides and MAP-Tau protein. β-Amyloid (Aβ) is a peptide responsible for extracellular Alzheimer's plaque formation. Intracellular MAP-Tau aggregates appear as a result of hyperphosphorylation of this cytoskeletal protein. Small, oligomeric forms of Aβ are intermediate products that appear before the amyloid plaque

We study the 2000s Danish legalization of interest-only (IO) loans, a mortgage market innovation aimed at increasing affordability and homeownership rates for cash-strapped buyers by substantially reducing first-year payments. Our results show that IO mortgages rapidly became popular in regions with higher house prices pre-treatment as well as with both the targeted cash-strapped borrowers and mor

Purpose: To determine the reproducibility of quantitative susceptibility mapping at multiple sites on clinical and preclinical scanners (1.5 T, 3 T, 7 T, and 9.4 T) from different vendors (Siemens, GE, Philips, and Bruker) for standardization of multicenter studies. Methods: Seven phantoms distributed from the core site, each containing 5 compartments with gadolinium solutions with fixed concentra

Lactobacillus reuteri metabolizes glycerol through propanediol-utilization (Pdu) pathway to 1,3-propanediol (1,3-PD) via 3-hydroxypropionaldehyde (3-HPA) as intermediate. In the resting cells, the oxidized co-factor obtained in the reaction is regenerated by simultaneous oxidation of 3-HPA to 3-hydroxypropionic acid (3-HP) using propionaldehyde dehydrogenase (PduP), phosphotransacylase (PduL) and

Achieving coordination in multi-agent systems has previously been found to be possible by utilizing local conventions as opposed to relying on the emergence of global conventions. On another note, fixed-strategy agents have been researched to manipulate the behaviour of networks with global conventions, but not local conventions. This paper studies how fixed-strategy agents impact local convention

Dendrimers are branched polymeric structures that have been shown to have a promising antiamyloidogenic potential by interfering with the polymerization process leading to the formation of the amyloid aggregates related to conformational diseases, such as Alzheimer's and prion diseases. It has been established that there is a relationship between the morphology of the amyloid aggregates and the am
