Norms and Space. Understanding Public Space Regulation in the Tourist City

How are public spaces regulated in tourist cities? In this doctoral dissertation I seek to answer this question by exploring the intersections between urban tourism and public space regulation. I argue that public space regulation substantially differs from the tourist to the non-tourist zone. This thesis contradicts the common belief that public space regulation may vary from city to city, but re

Characteristics and outcome of brachial plexus birth palsy in neonates.

Aim: To relate pregnancy characteristics to extent and reversibility of brachial plexus birth palsy (BPBP) in neonates. Methods: Retrospective case-control study: newborns with a registered diagnosis of BPBP (n = 168) 1990-2005 were compared to data from a randomly selected control group (n = 1000). Characteristics were related to the level of injury, reversibility and outcome. Results: Among 51 8

Accurate Calculation of the Isotope Shift and Hyperfine-structure In the Boron (b-ii) Line At 1362 Angstrom

An extensive multiconfiguration Hartree-Fock (MCHF) calculation of the isotope shift and hyperfine structure in the resonance line of B II at 1362 angstrom has been performed. The calculated B-11-B-10 isotope shift is 13.3 mangstrom with an estimated uncertainty of 1%. The calculated interaction constants A and B give a hyperfine structure splitting of less than 0.45 mangstrom for both isotopes. T

Morphological and functional changes in multifocal vitelliform retinopathy and biallelic mutations in BEST1.

Purpose: To describe morphological and functional changes in a single patient with multifocal Best vitelliform macular dystrophy (BVMD) and to perform a genotype/phenotype correlation. Methods: The proband with multifocal BVMD and three of her family members were examined with electrooculography (EOG), full-field electroretinography (full-field ERG), multifocal electroretinography (mfERG) and opti

Early treatment with the von Rosen splint for neonatal instability of the hip is safe regarding avascular necrosis of the femoral head.

Background and purpose - Avascular necrosis of the femoral head (AVN) is a complication in treatment of developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH). We evaluated the risk of AVN after early treatment in the von Rosen splint and measured the diameter of the ossific nucleus at 1 year of age. Children and methods - All children born in Malmö, Sweden, undergo clinical screening for neonatal instability o

Mesopredator release by an emergent superpredator: A natural experiment of predation in a three level guild

Background: Intraguild predation (IGP) is widespread but it is often neglected that guilds commonly include many layers of dominance within. This could obscure the effects of IGP making unclear whether the intermediate or the bottom mesopredator will bear higher costs from the emergence of a new top predator. Methodology/Principal Findings: In one of the most extensive datasets of avian IGP, we an

Crime Tourism and the Branding of Places

My paper will focus on the expanding tourism connected to popular crime novels in Sweden. The Swedish crime genre has been exploding during the last decades, and several Swedish crime writers have had an immense success abroad, e. g. Henning Mankell, Liza Marklund and Karin Alvtegen. Some of these writers have chosen to connect their stories to a specific place or region; a fact, which has been ex

Dispositional Moral Properties and Moral Motivation

Inspired by an analogy between moral and secondary properties, some moral philosophers have argued that moral properties are dispositions. According to one version of this view, most clearly represented by Jonathan Dancy, a moral property is the property of being such, having base properties such, that an entity with the property elicits morally merited and motivating responses. Its proponents hav

Internalization of cystatin C in human cell lines.

Altered protease activity is considered important for tumour invasion and metastasis, processes in which the cysteine proteases cathepsin B and L are involved. Their natural inhibitor cystatin C is a secreted protein, suggesting that it functions to control extracellular protease activity. Because cystatins added to cell cultures can inhibit polio, herpes simplex and coronavirus replication, which

The prognostic value of Ki67 is dependent on estrogen receptor status and histological grade in premenopausal patients with node-negative breast cancer.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the prognostic value of Ki67 in relation to established prognostic factors in lymph node-negative breast cancer, and furthermore, whether the prognostic impact was dependent on estrogen receptor (ER) status and histological grade. In 200 premenopausal patients, with 5 years of follow-up, Ki67 was determined on tissue microarrays. In univariate analysis, Ki67 (
