This thesis purpose is to examine what impact employer branding and organisational culture has on individual’s identity construction from a socially constructed view. We have used a qualitative research method based on an anti-positivistic epistemology and a socially constructed ontological perspective. We have conducted a case study at Quarter Consulting (a pseudonym for one of "The big 4&qu
I denna uppsats kommer jag att titta på hur miljöorganisationers talerätt har förändrats i EU efter det att EU ratificerade Århuskonventionen. Århuskonventionen ger individer och miljöorganisationer talerätt gällande tillgång till information, rätt att delta i beslutsprocesser, men också gentemot privatpersoner eller myndigheter som strider mot den nationella miljölagstiftningen. EU har införlivatIn this thesis I will look at how access to justice for NGOs has changed in the EU after the Union became a party to the Aarhus Convention. The Aarhus Convention gives individuals and environmental NGOs access to justice regarding access to environmental information, public participation in decision-making, but also in regard to private persons or public authorities in breach of national environme
Popular Science Summary Konsten att kunna ta bort ett syre Alla celler har DNA, som måste repareras och kopieras för att livet ska fortgå. För att kunna göra detta måste det finnas byggstenar. En av alla processer som ser till att alla delar finns i rätt mängd innefattar bara ett protein. Ett protein som får instruktioner från många håll för att gå igenom en komplicerad process som tillverkar dessThe protein ribonucleotide reductase catalyses the de novo synthesis of deoxyribonucleotides (dNTPs) from ribonucleotides (NTPs), using radical chemistry. It is under strict allosteric regulation, partly from the dNTPs it synthesises that regulate what substrate should be synthesised, but also from dATP/ATP, which regulates overall activity. It is a protein that is found in almost every living org
BACKGROUND: The release of neuron-specific astroglial S-100 protein to the cerebrospinal fluid is a marker of cerebral damage. The aim of this study was to determine the pattern of release of S-100 protein to serum after pediatric cardiac operations and extracorporeal circulation.METHODS: Sequential blood samples from 97 children (up to 16 years) were taken after induction of anesthesia, immediate
One of the greatest impediments to the use of probabilistic reasoning in legal arguments is the difficulty in agreeing on an appropriate prior probability for the ultimate hypothesis, (in criminal cases this is normally “Defendant is guilty of the crime for which he/she is accused”). Even strong supporters of a Bayesian approach prefer to ignore priors and focus instead on considering only the lik
Abstract: A search is presented for a new, light boson with a mass of about 1 GeV and decaying promptly to jets of collimated electrons and/or muons (lepton-jets). The analysis is performed with 20.3 fb−1 of data collected by the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 8 TeV. Events are required to contain at least two lepton-jets. This
Introduction: Endometriosis is a benign disease that affects women of reproductive age. Laparoscopic excision of endometriotic implants is considered one of the most effective therapeutic options. The disease and its treatment can have a major impact on psychosexual well-being but this is often overlooked as most studies focus on pain instead of sexuality in a holistic approach. The aim of this st
The concept of circular business models has been identified as an important enabler for companies moving towards circular practices. Circular business models help to prolong lifetimes of products and parts through successive cycles of reuse, repair, remanufacturing and closing material loops. To realise economic viability and reductions in environmental impacts from innovating towards a circular b
The synthesis and structural characterization of the hitherto unknown parent Co(bz)2 + (bz=benzene) complex and several of its derivatives are described. Their synthesis starts either from a CoCO5 + salt, or directly from Co2(CO)8 and a Ag+ salt. Stability and solubility of these complexes was achieved by using the weakly coordinating anions
Introduction: Multiple myeloma (MM) is a plasma cell neoplasm with substantial morbidity and mortality. A comprehensive description of the global burden of MM is needed to help direct health policy, resource allocation, research, and patient care.Objective: To describe the burden of MM and the availability of effective therapies for 21 world regions and 195 countries and territories from 1990 to 2
Aim: We studied the impact of maternal and pregnancy-related conditions and the effect of gestational age itself, on the health of infants born late preterm. Methods: Singletons born in gestational weeks 34 + 0 to 41 + 6 in 1995–2013 in the southern region of Sweden were identified from a perinatal register. We found 14 030 infants born late preterm and 294 814 born at term. A hierarchical system
Further improvements in the clinical care of our most vulnerable patients-preterm infants-are needed. Novel diagnostic and surveillance tools facilitate such advances. The GASMAS technique has shown potential to become a tool to, noninvasively, monitor gas in the lungs of preterm infants, by placing a laser source and a detector on the chest wall skin. It is believed that this technology will beco
Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is a neuroendocrine tumour that exhibits rapid growth and metastatic spread. Although SCLC represents a prototypically undifferentiated cancer type, thyroid transcription factor-1 (TTF-1, gene symbol NKX2-1), a master regulator for pulmonary epithelial cell differentiation and lung morphogenesis, is strongly upregulated in this aggressive cancer type. The aim of this
Introduction: Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biomarkers have the potential to improve the diagnostic accuracy of Alzheimer's disease, yet there is a lack of harmonized preanalytical CSF handling protocols. Methods: This systematic review summarizes the current literature on the influence of preanalytical variables on CSF biomarker concentration. We evaluated the evidence for three core CSF biomarkers:
Large-scale genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified approximately 35 loci associated with epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) risk. The majority of GWAS-identified disease susceptibility variants are located in noncoding regions, and causal genes underlying these associations remain largely unknown. Here, we performed a transcriptome-wide association study to search for novel genetic lo
Natural hazards (i.e. earthquakes, floods) become disaster when they strike the man-made environment. To effectively reduce the impact of every disaster, governments prepare a complete strategy, called disaster management. Availability of data such as: buildings, lifeline systems, roads, hospitals and etc, will help the managers to better decision-making. The majority of this data is spatial and c
This review describes the history, development, and evolution of cell-based replacement therapy for Parkinson's disease (PD), from the first pioneering trials with fetal ventral midbrain progenitors to future trials using stem cells as well as reprogrammed cells. In the spirit of Tom Isaacs, the review takes parallels to the storyline of Star Wars, including the temptations from the dark side and
As urban areas continue to grow, understanding how species respond and adapt to urban habitats is becoming increasingly important. Knowledge of the mechanisms behind observed phenotypic changes of urban-dwelling animals will enable us to better evaluate the impact of urbanization on current and future generations of wildlife and predict how animals respond to novel environments. Recently, urban ec
