Precarious employment is a risk factor for poor mental health in young individuals in Sweden : A cohort study with multiple follow-ups
Background: The globalisation of the economy and the labour markets has resulted in a growing proportion of individuals who find themselves in a precarious labour market situation, especially among the young. This pertains also to the Nordic countries, despite their characterisation as well developed welfare states with active labour market policies. This should be viewed against the background of
Intact endothelial and contractile function of coronary artery after 8 hours of heart preservation
Objectives. The aim of the study was to investigate if adequate preservation of coronary artery endothelium-dependent relaxation and contractility may be obtained after 8 hours of non-ischemic heart preservation. Design. Porcine hearts were perfused for 8 hours at 8 °C, either in cycles of 15 minutes perfusion and 60 minutes non-perfusion, or by continuous perfusion. The perfusate consisted of a c

Case C-113/07P Selex Sistemi Integrati SpA. v Commission [2009] ECR I-2207 Redefining the Boundaries between Undertaking and the Exercise of Public Authority
It is worth taking a closer look at the Court of Justice judgment in Selex Sistemi Integrati Spa v. Commission. The Court of Justice’s judgment adds important elements with regard to the definition of undertaking, as it partly redefines the boundaries between the exercise of public authority and economic activity.
Challenges of patient-focused care: Nurses’ descriptions and observations before and after intervention
The concept of patient-focused care aims to provide an environment in which the healthcare team focuses on the individual patient’s needs. In order to increase our understanding of how nurses perceive and conduct patient-focused care, the issue needs to be studied in various contexts. The aims of the study were to explore nurses’ descriptions of their patient-focused care, what took place during o
Due Process: The Exchange of Information and Risk of Hindering Effective Cross-Border Co-Operation in Competition Cases
The paper investigates the different regimes for the exchange of information in cross-border competition cases. It argues that the co-operation and information exchange mechanisms in competition cases established by Regulation 1/2003 have been overtaken by the means provided by the European Evidence Warrant which was developed under the former third Pillar (Co-operation in Criminal Matters). Moreo
Changing the Competition Regime Without Altering the Treaty’s Chapter on Competition?
The paper examines whether the changes in the objectives of the EU means a change in the competition acquis. A three step analysis leads to the conclusion that this has not to be expected. Initially the status of competition in the constitutional hierarchy under the old EC Treaty is examined before the detailed changes under the Lisbon Treaty are set out. The paper then investigates whether the am

Heidegger on Willpower and the Mood of Moderni
Relationships between perceptual defence reactions and subjective tendencies in the phenomenal representation of facial displays of affect.
Examined if nonveridical reports of a stimulus-motif presented below the threshold for correct recognition were related to subjective tendencies in the ordinary perception of thermatically related stimuli. 64 college students were tested with the standard picture of the Defense Mechanism Test that reflects a theme of aggression and threat. Stimulus-inadequate reports of the picture-motif were rela
Cognitions related to empathy in five- to eleven-year-old children.
Studied developmental changes in the conceptualization of empathy by testing and interviewing 16 kindergartners, 16 1st graders, and 16 4th graders. All age groups expected a child to empathize with liked peers more than with disliked peers. Whereas kindergartners expected emotional reactions to be equally strong in response to both types of peers, older Ss predicted weak and qualified empathic re
The approach and preference behaviour of chicks in relation to the intensity of neural-input effects.
The approach tendency of young precocial birds has been found to be related to stimulus magnitude in an inverted U-shaped fashion. This paper discusses the coding and processing of stimulus information in 2 cases, namely, when the quantitative stimulus variable is (1) the size of a moving object and (2) flicker rate. It is shown that the optimal size of a moving object for eliciting approach can b
Parental feeding rate in relation to begging behavior in asynchronously hatched broods of the great tit Parus major: An experimental study.
Four experiments manipulated the stimulus situation encountered by great tits on their feeding visits to the brood in order to explore its effect on feeding rate. Three broods containing 8, 8, and 10 nestlings were studied. A higher feeding rate was observed under the following conditions: (1) after a period of food deprivation, as compared with normal conditions and satiation through artifical fe
