Hip pain in children with cerebral palsy : A population-based registry study of risk factors 11 Medical and Health Sciences 1103 Clinical Sciences

Background: Hip pain is prevalent in children with cerebral palsy (CP). Hip displacement is a known risk factor for hip pain. However, many children do not have displaced hips but still have hip pain and the aetiologies are poorly understood. The aims of this study were to investigate: 1. the prevalence of hip pain related to age, gender, gross motor function, degree of hip displacement and 2. the

Gendered Surveillance and Media Usage in Post-Soviet Space: The Case of Azerbaijan

This article is an attempt to explore the limits of gendered surveillance in Azerbaijan – that is, how and to what extent female activists and women journalists are monitored and affected by the surveillative apparatuses of the state, both online and offline. The article also very briefly examines the gender dimension of Azerbaijani political activism and protest practices. The questions of how ge

Integrative stratigraphy and climatic events of a new lower paleogene reference section from the betic cordillera : Río gor, Granada province, se Spain

Research interest in the early Paleogene was greatly enhanced after the recognition of several short-lived warming events in that period (hyperthermals), considered ancient analogues of the ongoing warming of the Earth climate. In the Caravaca and Alamedilla sections, the previously most studied lower Paleogene sections of the Subbetic Zone (Betic Cordillera), only the most prominent of these hype

WPS, peace negotiations, and peace agreements

Peace negotiations and their outcomes have long-term repercussions for post-conflict politics and societies. Yet, one of the most striking patterns of contemporary peace diplomacy is the gross underrepresentation of women at the negotiation table, which reflects the gendered nature of diplomacy as an institution. The research question raised in this chapter concern how gender impacts peace negotia

Extracellular and intracellular small-molecule galectin-3 inhibitors

Galectin-3 is a carbohydrate binding protein which has important roles in cancer and immunity. Potent galectin-3 inhibitors have been synthesized, for experimental purposes and potential clinical use. As galectin-3 is implicated in both intra- and extracellular activities, permeability of galectin-3 inhibitors is an important parameter determining biological effects. We compared the cellular uptak

Pressure measurement in combusting and non-combusting gases using laser-induced grating spectroscopy

The measurement of pressure using laser-induced thermal grating spectroscopy, LITGS, with improved accuracy and precision is reported. Pressure values are derived from the record of the time-profile of LITGS signals by fitting of modelled signals to experimental data. The procedure is described for accurate modelling of the LIGS signals involving a sequence of calculation steps with appropriate w

Att låna (fruar och salt)

Ofta används uttrycket 'får jag låna...' utan att riktigt att ha en tanke på att lämna tillbaks saltkornen, toaletten eller tändstickan. Bidraget diskuterar vad som upplevs som oproblematiskt att låna, och vilka förfrågningar som kan orsaka starka känslor.

Så har islamisterna byggt upp sin maktbas i Sverige

I dag är Muslimska brödraskapet en stor aktör i organisationslivet i Sverige. Genom Islamiska förbundet, Sveriges muslimska råd och en rad sidoorganisationer drivs agendan med krav på att ge muslimer särskilda rättigheter och en särlagstiftning enligt sharia. De har så klart gjort allt för att förneka det, men det går inte längre att komma undan. Det är dags för Islamiska förbundet att lägga korte

Wage differentials, economic restructuring and the solidaristic wage policy in Sweden

The Swedish model has been seen as way to combine rapid growth with small wage gaps. The solidaristic wage policy negotiated by peak organizations between 1956 and 1983 was designed to induce restructuring by reducing wage differences across the economy. Several authors have linked this to decreased wage dispersion and rapid structural change, especially during the 1960s. However, there is disagre

130 years of colonial and postcolonial exhibitions in Denmark about The Danish West Indies

During the last 130 years, a number of exhibitions have interpreted and shown the Danish West Indies. The exhibitions are generally characterized by two tendencies: A rather romantic view on the colonial past with a strong focus on trade and the maritime. 2017 marked the centennial for the transfer of the Danish West Indies from Denmark to the United States. ;ore importantly, perhaps, it also mark

Tourism and Travel during the Cold War : Negotiating Tourist Experiences across the Iron Curtain

The Iron Curtain was not an impenetrable divide, and contacts between East and West took place regularly and on various levels throughout the Cold War. This book explores how the European tourist industry transcended the ideological fault lines and the communist states attracted an ever-increasing number of Western tourists. Based on extensive original research, it examines the ramifications of to

Glucose homeostasis dependency on acini–islet–acinar (AIA) axis communication : a new possible pathophysiological hypothesis regarding diabetes mellitus

Studies have highlighted the existence of two intra-pancreatic axes of communication: one involved in the regulation of enzyme production by insulin—the insular–acinar axis; and another involved in the regulation of insulin release by pancreatic enzymes—the acini–insular axis. Previous studies by our laboratory show that pancreatic enzymes can affect blood glucose homeostasis and insulin secretion

Enantioselective Binding of Propranolol and Analogues Thereof to Cellobiohydrolase Cel7A

At the catalytic site for the hydrolysis of cellulose the enzyme cellobiohydrolase Cel7A binds the enantiomers of the adrenergic beta-blocker propranolol with different selectivity. Methyl-to-hydroxymethyl group modifications of propranolol, which result in higher affinity and improved selectivity, were herein studied by 1H,1H and 1H,13C scalar spin–spin coupling constants as well as utilizing the

Emerging attosecond technologies

The quest for fundamental scientific knowledge triggers technological advancement. This has been particularly true for attosecond science in recent years: we assisted in the development of many new approaches - both experimentally and theoretically - that will have a high impact, not only on atomic and molecular physics, but also on optical technology. This special issue collects several of these
