Purpose: The purpose of this study was to explore the relationship between oxidative stress, antioxidant defense, mitochondrial structure, and biomechanical tissue support in the isolated porcine retina.Methods: Full-thickness retinal sheets were isolated from adult porcine eyes. Retinas were cultured for 2 or 48 h using (1) a previously established low-support explant protocol with photoreceptors
The current paper describes the deictic system of Kamaiurá, a language of the Tupí-Guaraní family. The Kamaiurá system of deictic demonstratives and adverbials has a high degree of complexity, including at least 17 different forms, of which several have different functions. The system codes four levels of Participant deixis, with proximal, medial, distal and far distal deixis. Forms can also code The current paper describes the deictic system of Kamaiurá, a language of the Tupí-Guaraní family.

All animals and some bacteria can synthesize linear polysaccharides with a backbone of repeating disaccharideunits, called glycosaminoglycans (GAGs). The GAGs are either attached to a protein core, as in proteoglycans (PGs), or exist as free polymer chains, as in hyaluronan. One of the most common types of GAGs is chondroitin/dermatan sulfate (CS/DS), where the repeating disaccharide backbone consAll animals and some bacteria can synthesize linear polysaccharides with a backbone of repeating disaccharideunits, called glycosaminoglycans (GAGs).

Nepal is one of the countries where remittances in proportion of the GDP are the highest with 28,8 per cent in 2013. A total of 7,2 per cent of Nepal’s population are found abroad and the remittances that they transfer back have been recognized to play an important role in reducing poverty in Nepal, even though critics argue that these remittances are only spent and not invested. The two aims of t
Det är svårt att stifta en konkurrenslag som effektivt motverkar karteller samtidigt som den tar tillvara företagens rätt till en rättvis rättegång. Vårt samhälle är idag präglat av en marknadsekonomi som är i behov av en välfungerande konkurrens. Karteller är kostsamma för samhället och ytterst för samhällsmedborgarna. Det finns betydande incitament för företag att samarbeta konkurrensbegränsande
With the use of articles, reports and academic literature, I have analyzed the significant role civil society played during, and after, the Tunisian revolution in 2011. The purpose of this essay has been to understand the underlying social distress, under which Tunisians had lived in many years, and how this came to result in a contagious revolution that marked the start of the Arab Spring. The re
The present study examined the relationship between perceived speechtime, therapeutic alliance, and gender in couples therapy. The aim was to investigate if there were any gender differences in therapeutic alliance and if male clients needed to rate themselves as having more perceived speech-time than female clients in order to remain in therapy. A quantitative method was used as well as questionn
The use of peace narratives in order to delegitimize political opposition has been observed in electoral autocracies. One such case was in Kenya in 2013, which gave rise to the theory of peaceocracy. Peaceocracy is conceptualized as being made up of six components, namely a fragile peace, incumbents cast as peacekeepers, peace as a responsibility of the citizenry, delegitimization of certain issue
This research explores how young audiences in Georgia perceive and engage with Russian Soft Power in the context of the media platform Alt-info. Alt-info is a privately-owned right-wing TV company and online media outlet founded in 2019 in Georgia. The study delves into the complex relationship between Russian Soft Power, the media landscape, and the perspectives of Georgia's youth. Using a c
The purpose of this study is to explore whether communicating the liabilities of newness can justify young ventures’ offshoring decisions to such an extent that it moderates country-of-origin (COO) effects. We adjust the established concept of COO effects to the entrepreneurial context and therefore include the country of ownership (CO) instead of the country of design (CD) next to the commonly us
Den 1 juli 2018 trädde den nya förvaltningslagen (2017:900) i kraft. I lagen ges enskilda, genom införandet av en dröjsmålstalan, för första gången i svensk förvaltningsrätt en generell rätt att föra talan mot förvaltningsmyndigheters passivitet. Om unionsrätten inte anger annat kommer den nya dröjsmålstalan, enligt principen om medlemsstaternas processuella autonomi, att tillämpas även vid förval
During the last decade the intersection between social welfare research and the ecological crisishas been gaining increasing interest through discussions about sustainable welfare and eco-social policies. Less attention has been paid, however, to eco-social risks and to how climatechange “will impact the nature and distribution of social risks across di!erent parts of thepopulation” (Hirvilammi et

As climate change intensifies, coastal cities face increasing flooding risks that threaten housing markets and urban infrastructure. This thesis examines whether these risks are reflected in property prices in Malmö, Sweden – a city identified as highly vulnerable to future coastal flooding. Using a hedonic pricing model combining GIS data and detailed property sales data from 2024, we investigate
