Background: Few tools evaluates quality of movements in individuals with knee osteoarthritis (OA). The Test for Substitution Patterns (TSP) is developed to measure the ability to perform five functional movements regarding postural control and altered movement patterns (1). TSP is validated and reliable in individuals with anterior cruciate ligament injury, but has not yet been evaluated in indivi

Sedan antiken har humanismen försökt definiera den mänskliga naturens väsen samtidigt som den placerar människan i universums centrum som ”alla tings mått”. I ett försök att omvärdera människans betydelse har det talats om ett slags transhumanistisk intersubjektivitet. Jag utgår från fysikern och feministen Karen Barads begrepp intraaktion (samspel mellan integrerade delar). Barad myntar begreppet

Aims. We study the origin of tail-like structures recently detected around the disk of SU Aurigae and several FU Orionis-type stars. Methods. Dynamic protostellar disks featuring ejections of gaseous clumps and quiescent protoplanetary disks experiencing a close encounter with an intruder star were modeled using the numerical hydrodynamics code FEOSAD. Both the gas and dust dynamics were taken int

In this paper, the model of moral motivation as developed by Brekke et al (2003) is analysed with the new assumption that self-image is an increasing function of effort. While the effects of increased efficiency and new information on optimal effort levels are largely similar, different results are obtained when individuals are faced with responsibility and economic incentives. Following Brekke et

Objectives We aimed to describe clinical and diagnostic characteristics of primary care patients with heart failure and physicians’ adherence to guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT) for treating chronic heart failure. Design Cross-sectional study based on baseline data from the prospective primary care-based study Heart failure in Southern Sweden (HISS). Setting Patients with heart failure we

Extensive diversity has been identified in the human heavy chain immunoglobulin locus, including allelic variation, gene duplication, and insertion/deletion events. Several genes have been suggested to be deleted in many haplotypes. Such findings have commonly been based on inference of the germline repertoire from data sets covering antibody heavy chain encoding transcripts. The inference process

In the late Middle Ages, hundreds of Christians from all over Europe sent supplications to the Papal Curia to be freed from promises made under duress. This article analyses the supplications about forced marriages that were submitted to the Apostolic Penitentiary during the pontificate of Pope Innocent VIII (1484–92). The study is based on mainly unedited source material that has not been investi

I Sverige minskar den biologiska mångfalden och antalet hotade arter ökar. Ett av de största hoten mot dessa arter och mot biologisk mångfald är förändringar i livsmiljöer. Trots detta fortsätter skogar med höga naturvärden att avverkas och andelen biologiskt skyddsvärd skog minskar. I uppsatsen utreds de EU-rättsliga artskyddsbestämmelserna i fågeldirektivet och habitatdirektivet, och den svensBiodiversity decreases in Sweden and the number of endangered species is increasing. One of the biggest threats to endangered species and biodiversity are changes in natural habitats. Despite this, forests that provide essential natural value, are continuously cut. This paper presents the national and regional EU species protection provisions in the Bird Directive and Habitats Directive and natio

Catalysts are used to produce a large fraction of the materials we use in our modern society. Avery famous example is the highly efficient catalysts that are used to fix nitrogen from the air intoartificial fertilizer salts. Without this catalytic process, it is difficult to imagine that we could feedthe current population of earth. Artificial fertilizers are, however, not the only product that usCobalt oxides are known to be active catalysts for a number of chemical reactions, but very little is known about the atomic scale processesresponsible for the activity. The research presented in this thesis is focused on obtaining an atomic scale understanding of the chemistry of wellcharacterizedcobalt oxide model catalyst surfaces consisting of pristine and defective CoO and Co3O4 thin films wi

Are birds better off without humans? The threat from urban Environment Pandas and tigers are well-known examples on animals who are badly affected by urbanization. That cities are growing bigger over most of our planet causes their habitats to disappear. However, there are a lot of other animals that also are badly affected. Not only the most conspicuous ones, but common ones that are important

Popular science summary Comparison of ectoparasite load on barnacle geese (Branta leucopsis) in arctic and temperate regions Some birds winter in warm regions, but breed in the arctic. This long migration takes up a lot of energy, which leaves scientists wonder why birds undertake this journey. One of the many hypotheses to explain it, is that there are fewer parasites in the arctic. Therefore,

Skyddsrum ska tillgodose civilbefolkningens behov av fysiskt skydd vid väpnat angrepp. Det har inte byggts några nya skyddsrum sedan 2002 men befolkningen har ökat. Totalförsvarsplaneringen har återupptagits med anledning av att den säkerhetspolitiska situationen i Europa har förändrats. Ett väpnat angrepp mot Sverige kan inte uteslutas. Av 3 kap. 9 § MB framgår att de prioriterade områdena för dThe purpose of shelters is to provide protection to the civilian population in case of war. Any new shelters have not been built in Sweden since 2002 but the population has increased. The national defense planning has been resumed because of changes in the security policy situation Europe. War against Sweden cannot be ruled out. According to the 3rd chapter 9 § The Swedish Environmental Code (MB)
