Popular Abstract in Swedish Västeuropeiska stater har blivit alltmer mångkulturella. Migrationsflöden från fattigare delar av välden har bidragit till att länder som tidigare uppfattade sig själva som homogena, uppvisar en allt högre grad av kulturella, etniska och religiösa olikheter. Förespråkare för mångkulturalism har argumenterat att ett sätt att hantera gruppers olikheter är att tolerera derWestern European states are faced by societies with increasing ethnic, cultural and religious diversity as a result of migration flows. Advocates of multiculturalism have tried to address these potential challenges by advocating the accommodation of minorities within the recipient society. This study argues that the normative and practical measures suggested by multiculturalists tend to be de-cont

PURPOSE: To identify and develop a conceptual map of prioritized areas and to determine their relative importance for outcome measurement in clinical Parkinson's disease (PD) trials, from the perspectives of health care professionals and people with PD. METHOD: We used concept mapping, a qualitative/quantitative method consisting of three steps: item generation through focus groups (n = 27; 12 peo

The present study introduces sparse modeling for the estimation of propagation patterns in intracardiac atrial fibrillation (AF) signals. The estimation is based on the partial directed coherence (PDC) function, derived from fitting a multivariate autoregressive model to the observed signals. A sparse optimization method is proposed for estimation of the model parameters, namely, the adaptive grou

Background: Computed tomography angiography (CTA) of intracranial arteries has high demands on image quality. Important parameters influencing vessel enhancement are injection rate, concentration of contrast media and tube voltage. Purpose: To evaluate the impact of an increase of contrast media concentration from 300 to 400 mg iodine/mL (mgI/mL) and the effect of a decrease of tube voltage from

Four recombinant Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains with enhanced xylose growth (TMB3400, C1, C5 and BH42) were compared with two control strains (TMB3399, TMB3001) through genome-wide transcription analysis in order to identify novel targets for inverse metabolic engineering. A subset of 13 genes with changed expression levels in all improved strains was selected for further analysis. Thirteen vali

Recent literature on L2 vocabulary testing points to a move away from discrete vocabulary testing towards more embedded and integrative approaches. This paper investigates if the way vocabulary is currently tested at English departments at Swedish universities follows this trend. The survey shows that a great majority of universities use discrete and selective vocabulary tests and that the multipl

Utbildning har förmodligen aldrig haft en mer upphöjd ställning än under de senaste decennierna. Samtidigt befinner sig skolan, eller snarare skolinstitutionen, i kris. Krisen har medfört att lärarna mer definieras som en del av problemet än av lösningen. Försöken att styra läraren i riktning mot en ”maktens lärare”, en anställd som lojalt gör det uppdragsgivaren vill, har därför också stått högt

Determining vaccine dose-level protection is essential to minimize program costs and increase mass vaccination program feasibility. Currently, a 3-dose vaccination schedule is recommended for both the quadrivalent and bivalent human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccines. Although the primary goal of HPV vaccination programs is to prevent cervical cancer, condyloma related to HPV types 6 and 11 is also pre
