Cerebral ischemia that develops after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) carries high morbidity and mortality. Inflammatory mediators are involved in the development of cerebral ischemia through activation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway. We hypothesized that blockade of the MAPkinase/ERK (MEK)/extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) pathway upstream with a specific raf inhibitor wo

The intensifying global race for talent increases the need of efficient policies and tools aimed at attracting and retaining highly-skilled individuals from around the world. For this purpose, a large strand of literature started examining the determinants of skilled immigration. However, little attention has been paid to the case of international students, which represent a special sub-group of h

This thesis describes the design process and result of a product system that facilitates cooking and baking in a flexible way for young professionals with a small city apartment. The system consists of a small pot, a pan, an oven that also serves as a big pot, a hot plate and a battery pack which can be attached to the hotplate. The main design challenges that were solved during this project inclu

Experience shows that energy efficiency improvements are the most cost-effective path to meeting global energy challenges. To promote energy efficiency, various policy instruments have been in place since the 1970s. Nevertheless, energy efficiency improvements still lag behind their potential in the building sector, which indicates that there is a lack of knowledge about the performance of policie

This thesis examines whether there exists any causal relationship between foreign trade and declining energy intensity in the Netherlands. In other words, does the Netherlands outsource its energy intense industries to less developed countries rather than solve them internally? No significant causal relationships is found between international trade and declining energy intensity, since the Nether

Alignment behavior of states provides an interesting and observable approach to International Politics. This theory testing thesis examines the ways external and internal threats give impact on the alignment behavior of states. Traditional alignment theory, such as Steven Walts Balance-of-Threat, predicts that states balance against their primary external threat by aligning a secondary threat. Ste

The idea of a common language has always existed in some form in China, from the ya yan of Confucius to the modern day mandarin – known as Putonghua. During the Qing dynasty the Beijing dialect slowly became dominant, and in the years following the Xinhai revolution this was made formal through a series of decisions aimed at standardizing the language. The current definition dates back to the 1956

This thesis examines the interactions and role-changings between the LGBTQIA+ community and the creative industries in Guangzhou, China. Following Florida’s (2003) creative capital theory, and Badgett, Waaldijk, and Rodgers’s (2019) study on LGBT inclusion and economic development, involving semi-structured interviews with LGBTQIA+ individuals working or studying in the creative industries. This q

English title: Song writing and gender. The purpose of this study has been to find out if there are any differences between women's and men's song writing processes, primarily in the singer/songwriter genre. I have interviewed three female songwriters and three men about their way of writing songs. The result shows mainly that there are not any gender related differences in the way songs a

The present thesis analyses the political and cultural ideas, as well as the narrative, articulated in the mid of the 19th century by prominent members of the student movement actively engaged in the pan-nationalistic, ideological current of scandinavianism. The research’s empirical material that conveys the narrative and idéas of the student movement was written and published in the early 1840s b

The orchid Coeloglossum viride (L.) Hartm. has a circumboreal distribution and is widespread in the Nordic countries, especially in the boreal and montane regions. Whereas plants from the lowlands are generally slender and have greenish-yellowish flowers, plants from mountain areas tend to be low-growing with fewer, reddish-brown flowers, leading some authors to recognize the latter as a separate The orchid Coeloglossum viride (L.)

The anations of Pt(H2O)42+ and PtX(H2O)3+ (to trans-PtX(H2O)2) by X− = Cl−, Br−, I− and SCN− and the anation of trans-PtX2(H2O)2) by X− = Cl−, Br− and I− have been studied at 25 °C and 1.00 M perchlorate medium using both stopped-flow and conventional spectrophotometry. For large excess of X−, PtX42− is formed according to the mechanism in Figure 1. The results indicate an entering ligand order of
