Transfer and typological proximity in the context of L2 processing

In this article, the issue of cross-linguistic influence in second language acquisition is examined from a processing perspective. Applying Processability Theory as the theoretical framework we claim that second language (L2) learners can only produce forms they are able to process.We thus argue that the first language (L1) influence on the L2 is developmentally moderated. Data were collected from

Introduction of total hip arthroplasty in Lithuania - Results from the first 10 years

Background Hip replacement as a routine procedure was introduced in Lithuania in 1991. At Klaipeda Hospital, one of the 2 hospitals at which this was begun, the arthroplasties were followed prospectively from the start. This study concerns the 10-year results from a country with no previous experience of hip replacement. The results are compared with those from a hospital with considerable experie

Folate - Associations with breast cancer depending on intake, metabolism, genetic variation and estrogen receptor status.

Folate is a B-vitamin that may influence cancer development via its role as methyl donor for DNA synthesis and methylation. Plant foods contain many bioactive compounds including folate and fiber. Results from the Malmö Diet and Cancer (MDC) cohort indicate lower breast cancer risk at high fiber intake. Folate intake may partly explain this association. Aims of this thesis were to examine if i

14C Produced by Nuclear Power Reactors - Generation and Characterization of Gaseous, Liquid and Solid Waste

This thesis presents the results from studies on carbon-14 produced by nuclear power reactors. Radioactive 14C enters the carbon cycle and can be taken up by humans, where it will constitute a potential health hazard. Therefore, the main focus of this thesis was to provide new data and knowledge necessary for the implementation of appropriate nuclear waste management strategies. Such data have pre
