This paper is a qualitative analytic study of the views regarding masculinity of six male university students. The author means to view the gender issue from a male point of view and analyze the empiric result using well known theory on the subject. The main questions of the essay are: What, according to my respondents, is masculine and non masculine? Does the university influence this view, and i

A shipyards' right of retention is somewhat of a phenomenon, enabling the shipyard to retain property and secure credit accordingly. The right of retention has a character that is similar to a so-called legal lien. The current regulation in the MC governing retention has its roots in the 1967 Convention on Maritime Liens and Mortgages. There are several kinds of retention rights. The one prima

In order to turn business ideas into ventures that create value and wealth, several types of resources are required. They can be divided into social, human, organizational, technical, and financial resources. Among all of these, finance is considered one of the most essential resources to acquire because it enables the acquisition of additional human, physical and technological resources later on

I detta examensarbete söker jag svar på om sång- och instrumentallärarna inom de kommunala musik- och kulturskolorna utvärderar och utvecklar sitt pedagogiska arbete. Jag undersöker också vilka metoder de använder för detta, och huruvida frekvensen och metoderna varierar beroende på lärarnas bakgrund, utbildning, och arbetslivserfarenhet. Teorikapitlet ger en bakgrund till begreppet pedagogisk utvTitle: The voluntary evolution - About how music teachers in municipal music schools evaluate and develop their pedagogical work This paper aims to find out if the teachers at the Swedish municipal music schools evaluate and develop their pedagogical methods and everyday teaching. I also explore what methods they use in order to do so, and whether the frequency and methods depend on the teachers&#

Many strains of Trichoderma fungi have beneficial effects on plant growth and pathogen control, but little is known about the importance of plant genotype, nor the underlying mechanisms. We aimed to determine the effect of sugar beet genotypic variation on Trichoderma biostimulation. The effect of Trichoderma afroharzianum T22 on sugar beet inbred genotypes were investigated in soil and on sterile

Chronic glomerular and tubular nephrotoxicity has been reported in up to 50% and 25%, respectively, of children and adolescents treated with ifosfamide and up to 60% and 30% of those given cisplatin. Up to 35% of children have proteinuria and microalbuminuria, implying chronic glomerular damage, after unilateral nephrectomy for a renal tumour. We are still learning about nephrotoxicity due to the

The chapter examines the role of indirect review of administrative action in Swedish law. A general description of the overall structure of the Swedish system for judicial review of administrative action is followed by a discussion about the administrative measures that cannot be reviewed in a direct review. The chapter then focuses specifically on the phenomenon of indirect judicial review in relThe chapter examines the role of indirect review of administrative action in Swedish law.

Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is a common skin cancer type and affected individuals are known to be at risk of developing multiple consecutive tumours. Research into BCC multiplicity has, thus far, been challenging, due to a lack of national registration. This registry-based cohort study aimed to analyse the occurrence of multiple BCCs in Sweden, and risk factors for subsequent primary BCCs. Data reg

Language learners must become able to perceive and process new speech sounds in order to segment words and sentences. The process of obtaining these skills is, to a high degree, implicit. However, research attempting to find the neuroanatomical correlates of such an implicit learning system has mostly used artificial grammar or serial reaction time tasks that are lacking in linguistic relevance. ILanguage learning involves implicitly acquiring a sensitivity for novel speech sounds and phonological structure [1]. Implicit learning skill differs between individuals [2] and this individual difference could potentially be reflected in the quality of white matter tracts relevant for speech perception and production [3] or for implicit sequence learning [4]. Implicit learning of speech has been

This article explores the Egyptian state’s production of desired manhood and destruction of unwanted masculinities in relation to home and displacement through audio-focused analysis and a focus on sonic infrastructures. While sonic infrastructures can be used as a form of political control and violence, my work in Egypt also shows how people, through sound and sonic resistance, navigate and shape

Objectives/Hypothesis: The aims were to determine health-related quality of life (HRQoL), including voice problems, dysphagia, depression, and anxiety after total laryngectomy (TL), and investigate the associations between HRQoL and the late effects. Study Design: Cross-sectional study. Methods: 172 participants having received a TL 1.6 to 18.1 years ago for laryngeal/hypopharyngeal cancer filled

With the European minimum wage directive adopted in 2022, all European countries will be obliged to protect and promote collective bargaining. Where collective bargaining coverage is below 80 per cent, they will be obliged to draw up and implement national action plans in 2025 to increase coverage. This will be the first time in history for so many European countries to be legally obliged to think

My objective has been to characterize protein-surfactant interactions in pharmaceutically relevant formulations. Thus, the behavior of selected excipients, proteins and peptides has been studied as the system in question is driven to the verge of instability in different manners; by inducing aggregation, by inducing surfactant complexation, or by inducing precipitation by increasing ionic strength

Many types of microneedle (MN) arrays have been tested for delivery of vaccines to the skin. However, the effect of MN geometry/array design on antibody production is still unclear. Reports suggest that systemic immune responses may be affected by how MN arrays “mechanically” deliver vaccines, which can induce cell damage and act as an adjuvant. This includes parameters such as MN length/insertion

While research indicates that indoor lighting, exposure to daylight, physical activity, and sleep interact to influence functioning, mood, and daily rhythm, strategies are needed to support behavioral changes among older adults who often spend more time at home after retirement. The objective was to design a web-based course to encourage behavior change related to light, activity, and sleep.

Direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) used in nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) are dose-reduced in elderly and patients with impaired renal function. Only reduced dose dabigatran is concluded as having similar stroke risk reduction and lower risk of major bleeding than warfarin in the pivotal studies. In clinical practice, reduced dose is prescribed more often than expected making this an impor

Previous studies have suggested that the development of diabetes in the BB rats does not require the expression of T lymphopenia. In order to derive non-lymphopenic diabetic rats and define the relationship between the T cell abnormalities, MHC genotype, and diabetes, we performed a cross between BB/H and diabetes resistant BB/control followed by an intercross of the F1. In the F2, the overall inc

Objective: To characterize the trend of opioid use (number of users, dispensations and oral morphine milligram equivalents) in Catalonia (Spain). Design, setting, and participants: This population-based cohort study included all individuals aged 18 years or older, registered in the Information System for Research in Primary Care (SIDIAP), which covers >75% of the population in Catalonia, Spain, fr
