CONTEXT: Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is a cause of pain, numbness, and tingling in the hands and is an important cause of work disability. Although high prevalence rates of CTS in certain occupations have been reported, little is known about its prevalence in the general population. OBJECTIVE: To estimate the prevalence of CTS in a general population. DESIGN: General health mail survey sent in Fe
The overall level of education is increasing in Europe. This article focuses on women's educational attainment and especially on differences in expansion rates in Germany, Portugal and Swedn. The author argues that an understanding of the expansion of the number of women in education must consider - in addition to the structure of the educational system - recent economic, demographic, social and c
By examining the reception of Edme Boursault’s first fable comedy, Ésope (1690), the paper discusses the historical prerequisites of an interlacing of fable and comedy. The several 18th century translations of Boursault’s drama often have been taken as a pretext for the success of his genre experiment. The fusion of fable and comedy was, however, not in all respects in line with literary horizons
The paper discusses how the early reception in Swedish of the Aesopic fable was filtered through German Lutheranism. The main focus of the paper is on the country’s very first vernacular fable collection, Hundrade Esopi Fabler (A Hundred Fables of Aesop), published in Stockholm in 1603. This volume is a faithful translation of the German collection Hundert Fabeln aus Esopo, composed in the 1570s b
We constructed hydrodynamical model atmospheres for mid M-type main-, as well as pre-main-sequence objects. Despite the complex chemistry encountered in such cool atmospheres a reasonably accurate representation of the radiative transfer is possible. The detailed treatment of the interplay between radiation and convection in the hydrodynamical models allows to study processes usually not accessibl
Reading Political Theology in light of the later developed concrete-order thinking, this essay draws attention to the understanding of law, which allows Schmitt to present the sovereign as simultaneously standing inside and outside the legal order. In addition, the particular way of ordering the political community, which Schmitt’s notion of sovereignty advances, is also explored. The essay sugges
The chapter presents the liturgical year, in particular the interpretation(s) of the liturgical year found in sermons and Biblical commentaries from the Benedictine abbey of Admont in the twelfth century.
Caesiated InAs(111)B (1 x 1) and InAs(111)A (2 x 2) surfaces have been studied by photoelectron spectroscopy. On the InAs(111)B a new (root 3 x root 3)R30 degrees reconstruction was observed. During Cs evaporation remarkably small changes are observed in the lone pair states, and no sign of an accumulation layer at the surface can be observed. Instead, the additional charge provided by Cs is rapid
1H-[1,2,3]-Triazol-1-yl mannosides have been synthesized as inhibitors for the beta-galactoside-binding family of galectin proteins. Easier synthetic access to C1 in mannose, as compared to C3 in galactose, for attachment of affinity-enhancing triazoles rendered a synthetic advantage. The best mannose-derived inhibitor for galectin-9N, 4-benzylaminocarbonyl-1H-[1,2,3]-triazol-1-yl beta-D-mannopyra

Under många år har diskussioner förts kring upprättandet av en enhetlig europeisk avtalsrättslig lagstiftning. Harmoniseringsprocessen har pågått såväl på lagstiftningsplanet som på akademisk nivå. Draft Common Frame of Reference, DCFR, initierades som ytterligare ett steg mot denna tillnärmning av lagstiftning. Nämnda referensram utgör hittills soft law men kan, helt eller delvis, komma att liggaFor several years, there has been an ongoing debate regarding the establishment of a uniform European contract law. The subsequent harmonization process has been driven both on an academic level as well as by the legislative authority of the European Union. Recently established, the Draft Common Frame of Reference, DCFR, is an initial step towards unification of laws. This frame of reference is hi
I slutet av 2014 hade 38 miljoner människor runt om i världen flytt sina hem till följd av krig, konflikt och våld. Att rädda liv och minska lidandet för dessa flyktingar är syftet med humanitärlogistik.

To save the lives and alleviate the suffering of these refugees and displaced is the purpose of Humanitarian Logistics. Preparedness is of key importance in humanitarian organisations as it is a tool to reduce the impact of coming events. One common prepar
Uppsatsen undersöker synförlustens anledningar och innebörder i fyra verk: "Konung Oidipus" och "Oidipus i Kolonos" av Sofokles, "The Country of the Blind" av H. G. Wells, samt "Blindheten" av José Saramago. Gemensamt för samtliga studerade verk är synförlust, och analyserna har fokuserats på denna synförlusts respektive anledningar och innebörder, synförlus
Microfluidic techniques were applied to the separation of parasite and parasite-infected cells from blood to facilitate the detection of leishmaniasis, a disease representing a high burden in the developing world and for which new diagnostic tools are urgently needed. Leishmania mexicana promastigotes were successfully separated from red blood cells in a deterministic lateral displacement device.
