Are There Any Female Astronauts? On Gender-Inclusive Translation of Non-Fiction Books for ChildrenThis article deals with gender-inclusive translation of information books for children. Translation solutions drawn from three non-fiction books translated from French to Swedish by different translators are discussed in terms of gender neutrality and inclusion. Analysis reveals that, although the Swe
A distinguishing feature of youth detention homes—and any other prisonlike institution—is the fact that inmates cannot just leave. They might escape, and there are ways to be transferred, enjoy an excursion, and get permission for home visits, but typically the young people in this case are supposed to remain within their given institution. I have been eager to not only depict this feature of fiel

Although previous researches have covered various kinds of identity studies, the identity issues particularly among the Chinese immigrants to Sweden remain poorly understood. Therefore, this thesis contributes to the vast amount of research by focusing on how and why the Chinese immigrants’ identities have developed after immigration. Based on nationalism and national identity theories in modern C
How does violent conflict affect the spread of Covid-19? In this paper we analyze how violent conflict influences the adoption of preventative measures and infection rate in a very poor, conflict-affected country, Burkina Faso. We use a unique panel of 1,919 households surveyed during the first six months of the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020 and merge these data with indicators of violence at the muniHow does violent conflict affect the spread of Covid-19?

This paper explores whether Ethiopia's rapid economic growth is transformative enough for the country to eventually catch up with high-income countries. It does so by exploring the change and continuity of four elements of social capability from 1950 to 2020: structural transformation, economic inclusion and the state's autonomy and accountability. It finds that Ethiopia's social capability modest
Under scrutiny (what we term a “bribery gaze”), many interpersonal exchanges in work contexts are perceived as bribes rather than gifts, tokens of appreciation, or mundane favors. Current Swedish bribery laws are strong, and the media keep a vigilant eye out for suspicious activities. From a wide set of qualitative data, we selected 13 interviews with formally-accused middle managers and low-level
Human neutrophils are activated by the beta-galactoside-binding lectin galectin-3, provided that the cells are primed by in vivo extravasation or by in vitro preactivation with, for example, LPS. Removal of terminal sialic acid can change neutrophil functionality and responsiveness due to exposure of underlying glycoconjugate receptors or change in surface charge. Here, we investigated whether suc
Evidence for the importance of genetic factors in male fertility is accumulating. In the literature and the Mendelian Cytogenetics Network database, 265 cases of infertile males with balanced reciprocal translocations have been described. The candidacy for infertility of 14 testis-expressed transcripts (TETs) were examined by comparing their chromosomal mapping position to the position of balanced
In this study linear free energy relationships (LFER) are applied to the relaxation of core-excited states in aliphatic CH3X compounds. There are at least two valence orbitals involved in Auger decay following C-CH3 1s -> sigma*(C-X) excitation, which may as well be localized on the substituents in this series. Therefore, the observed property cannot be strictly attached to the so-called reaction
Detta är en musiketnologisk studie om musikens betydelse för wolofbyn Njawara. Uppsatsen är uppbyggd kring kvalitativa intervjuer och fältstudier jag gjort som deltagande observatör i Njawara under två månader 2009-2010. I uppsatsen förklarar jag olika termer och ceremonier med anknytning till wolofkulturen. I teorikapitlet förklarar jag olika musiketnologiska begrepp och perspektiv som till exempTitle: The unifier of Njawara – The importance of music in a small Gambian village. The purpose of the present study is to find out how music integrates the Wolof village of Njawara. The study is based on interviews and field studies made as a participating observer in Njawara during two months in 2009-2010. In the study I explain important music terminology and different ceremonies from the Wolof
The T cell receptor (TCR) initiates the elimination of pathogens and tumors by T cells. To avoid damage to the host, the receptor must be capable of discriminating between wild-type and mutated self and nonself peptide ligands presented by host cells. Exactly how the TCR does this is unknown. In resting T cells, the TCR is largely unphosphorylated due to the dominance of phosphatases over the kina
The aim of this study was to compare the influence of flow in the velocity range 0 to 25 mm/s on modulus, phase, real and imaginary images obtained with a standard magnetic resonance scanner (Siemens Magnetom, 0.5 T), and to develop a simple method for determination of flow velocities in vivo from this information. Using a flow phantom, the flow dependent magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) signal ha
Introduction: Mono(ADP-ribosyl)ation (MARylation) is a post tranlational modification with important roles in stress responses and cellular signaling. Mass spectrometry is an efficient tool for identifying modified amino acid residues, optimisation of parameters is desired to develop an efficient method for detection of MARylation on proteins using the recombinant protein NUDT16. Background: MAR
Rechargeable aqueous zinc batteries (AZBs) have been recognized as attractive energy storage devices because of their intrinsic superiorities, e. g., high safety, low material cost and environmental benignity. However, challenges such as dendrite formation on the surface of zinc (Zn) anode, poor reversibility of Zn plating/stripping and short circuit of the cell, having detrimental impact on cycle
The special degeneracy which occurs in the harmonic-oscillator potential when two of the frequencies have ratios of small integer numbers is exploited. Favored shell energies occur for particle numbers which vary with the third frequency. Applications to realistic nuclear potentials show that this degeneracy leads to special shell effects for axial shapes (1:1 ratio) but also for the 2:1 ratio exe
