This paper addresses the decline in infant mortality that occurred with a remarkable synchronization across Europe around the turn of the century 1900. It is the argument of this paper that this development is not just, as in the conventional view, the side effect of economic growth but could be derived through a cumulative chain of events, starting with the discovery of the germ theory.

The haptoglobin phenotypes of Sudanese patients with complicated and uncomplicated falciparum malaria, and those of uninfected randomly selected individuals, were determined by electrophoresis of sera on polyacrylamide gels followed by benzidine staining of the gels. Among 273 malaria patients, the proportions with haptoglobin phenotypes (1-1), (2-1) and (2-2) were 60.8%, 29.7% and 9.5%, respectiv

From at least the Late Neolithic through the end of the Bronze Age and onwards, people continued to inhabit the settlement of Asine. For this reason, the site makes an interesting starting point for discussing long term change. This short paper presents new data on the animal bones from Bronze Age Asine. The data set is used for a zooarchaeological discussion of the site from a diachronic perspectFrom at least the Late Neolithic through the end of the Bronze Age and onwards, people continued to inhabit the settlement of Asine.

When it comes to random walk on the integers Z, the arguably first step of generalization beyond simple random walk is the class of one-sidedly continuous random walk, where the stepsize in only one direction is bounded by 1. Moreover, the time until state 0 is hit by left-continuous random walk on Z started at 1 has a direct connection to the total progeny in branching processes. In the analysis
This paper studies whether Swedish workers use the unemployment insurance (UI) system as a pathway to retirement. We use longitudinal register data consisting of weekly UI benefit payments for the period 1999 to 2015. In Sweden, individuals are eligible for UI benefits for a maximum of 427 days. This creates an artificial benefit threshold at 427 days prior to the official retirement age. We use a
Within the start-up ecosystem, young and small firms often face a significant challenge by acquiring external capital, the so-called funding gap. A trend throughout the recent years was, (and still is), the geographical clustering of financial institutions and investors in financial concentrated areas, which are referred to as financial centers. Those areas create huge disparities between differen

A major challenge for ecology is to predict and manage global change impacts on species and ecosystems. One key focus of that research is species’ movement (or stasis), through a shift, expansion, or contraction of their ranges. We aim to identify the potential for species range-shifts in Sweden, and to assess their consequences on biodiversity. We study different taxa, with an emphasis on birds

Idrottande ungdomar, i åldern 12-20 år, har ett specialbehov vad gäller kosten i jämförelse med andra individer. Då ungdomarna fortfarande växer och utvecklas är en sund kosthållning ytterst angeläget för upprätthållande av en normal kroppslig utveckling. Dessutom ställs i och med idrottandet högre krav på näringsintaget eftersom mer energi- och näringsämnen samt vätska förbrukas på grund av den fYoung athletes, between 12-20 years, have special dietary needs in comparison to other individuals. Since these individuals are still growing and maturing, a healthy diet is of utmost importance for the maintenance of a normal physical development. Moreover; due to physical activity the requirements of energy, nutrients and fluids are higher for young athletes. In order to achieve optimal physical
