The modern economy has put an emphasis on team-led work in both large- and small-scale projects. This has led to ways to maximize the effectiveness of teams, with an increasing focus being put on one key concept: psychological safety. The aim of this study is to examine the relationship between psychological safety and team effectiveness through the use of a cross-sectional study design on an IT p
Future People, the All Affected Principle, and the Limits of the Aggregation Model of Democracy Future People, the All Affected Principle, and the Limits of the Aggregation Model of Democracy 1 Torbjörn Tännsjö Stockholm University Abstract: Contrary from what seems to be the received wisdom in political theory, there is no way that we can affect future people, at least not people who live several

Background: To examine the association of education with body mass index (BMI) and waist circumference (WC) in the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC). Method: This study included 141,230 male and 336,637 female EPIC-participants, who were recruited between 1992 and 2000. Education, which was assessed by questionnaire, was classified into four categories; BMI and WC
Popular Abstract in Swedish Dercums sjukdom är ovanlig sjukdom som kännetecknas av uttalad kronisk smärta (>3 månader) i fettväven, kombinerad med övervikt och ett antal mer diffusa associerade symptom, såsom trötthet och allmän sjukdomskänsla. Orsaken till sjukdomen är okänd. Smärtorna är ofta handikappande och de flesta prövade behandlingar, såsom traditionella smärtstillande, ger otillräcklig eDercum’s disease is a rare condition characterised by obesity, chronic pain (>3 months) in the adipose tissue and a number of diffuse associated symptoms, such as fatigue and malaise. The aetiology of the disease is unknown. The experienced pains are often disabling and resistant to most tried treatments, such as analgesics. However, a number of case reports have been published on the promising ef
Background and objective: The pharmacokinetics of mycophenolic acid (MPA) are complex, with large interindividual variability over time. There are also well documented interactions with ciclosporin, and assessment of MPA exposure is therefore necessary when reducing or stopping ciclosporin therapy. Here we report on the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic behaviour of MPA in renal transplant patie
Genus-specific, sRNA discovery in marine Synechococcus The most ubiquitously distributed, picocyanobacteria, Synechococcus significantly contribute to global, oceanic primary productivity and are pivotal players in biogeochemical cycling. Because of the distribution and significant contribution of picocyanobacterial to global processes, there have been many studies on gene expression and their tr
The present study explored the nature of the auditory P300 in response to filtered words in ten normal hearing adults. P300 waveforms were elicited by a classic oddball paradigm, and recorded using a net of 128 electrodes (HydroCel Geodesic Sensor Net 128 1.0.). P300 waveforms from central, parietal, temporal right and temporal left regions were selected for data collection. P300 latencies and amp
Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) have known to be one of the most common degenerative diseases which highly correlate with lifestyle, including consumption habits. It cannot be denied that the availability and accessibility to high processed food, high in carbohydrates play an important role on increasing the risk of T2DM. On the contrary, consumers’ awareness towards health and nutrition are also
A systems approach was used to compare different heating systems from a consumer perspective. The whole energy system was considered from natural resources to the required energy services. District heating, electric heat pumps, electric boilers, natural-gas-, oil- or pellet-fired local boilers were considered when supplying heat to a detached house. The district heat production included wood-chip-
The self-assembly behavior of a cationic surfactant (dodecyltrimethylammonium, DTA) with DNA as counterion in mixtures of water and n-alcohols (decanol, octanol, hexanol, butanol, and ethanol) was investigated. The phase diagrams were established and the different regions of the phase diagram characterized with respect to microstructure by H-2 NMR, small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS), and other te
The aim of this study was to evaluate the added utility of gadolinium administration in the magnetic resonance imaging evaluation of developmental delay in children less than 2 years of age. A computerized retrospective study identified all brain magnetic resonance imaging examinations using gadolinium performed at our institution from 1995-2002 for children under the age of 2 years. Review of the
Heterologous endo-beta-1,4-xylanase was produced by Pichia stipitis under control of the hypoxia-inducible PsADH2-promoter in a high-cell-clensity culture. After promoter induction by a shift to oxygen limitation, different aeration rates (oxygen transfer rates) were applied while maintaining oxygen-limitation. Initially, enzyme production was higher in oxygen-limited cultures with high rates of o
SETTING: Addis Ababa Tuberculosis Demonstration and Training Center, Ethiopia. OBJECTIVES: To determine the pattern of drug resistance among re-treatment cases of pulmonary tuberculosis (TB), to determine the risk factors associated with multi-drug resistant (MDR) TB, and to propose re-treatment regimens based on the patterns of susceptibility to first-line and alternative drugs. DESIGN: One hundr
Background/Aim: Several studies have described that oxytocin exerts stimulatory or inhibitory effects on gut functions. Recently, mRNA for oxytocin and its receptor was found throughout the entire human gastrointestinal (GI) tract. The aim of this study was to examine the cellular localization and distribution of the corresponding proteins. Material and methods: Full-thickness biopsies from 24 pat
If present in large numbers, as during migration, herbivorous waterfowlmay reduce the amount of submerged vegetation. Because the vegetation is a keyfactor in shallow eutrophic lakes, removal of the green biomass can be expectedto affect also other biota that depend on the vegetation. We conducted anexperiment to determine how the abundance of chironomids andPisidium sp. were affected by intense f
Popular Abstract in Swedish Södra Regionvårdsnämnden har önskat att få belyst om vi har en rättvis och jämlik cancervård i Södra sjukvårdsregionen. Därför har en populationsbaserad registerstudie med många olika etapper genomförts. Basinformationen har hämtats från Tumörregistret i Södra sjukvårdsregionen. Första diagnosdatum noterades och hemort (kommun, distrikt, län) samt sjukhus definierades eThe overall aim was to study different aspect of health care use and health care costs on a population based level for persons with cancer and their partners, and from an individual level to explore the impact of comorbidities in incidence and survival. In the beginning of the study all persons in the Southern Health Care Region in Sweden diagnosed with colon, rectal, breast, prostate and lung can
While once abstruse, 14-3-3 proteins are now well known as players in several cellular processes. These processes range from apoptosis and mitosis in mammals and yeast, to regulation of primary metabolism in plants. To date, 104 proteins have been shown to interact with 14-3-3s of which 85 are found in mammals and yeast, and 21 are found in plants. Their consensus action is to bind to phosphorylat
