I propose that the evolution of teaching has been central in extending manipulative intentions. Demonstrating may be the evolutionarily first form of expression that is productive, ostensive, and involves informative intention. Demonstration also involves theory of mind. Then pantomime goes a step further and involves a communicative intention. Pantomime can thereby function as displaced communica
BACKGROUND: Very few studies have investigated whether unilateral choanal atresia is associated with permanent olfactory deficits.OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to evaluate the olfactory performance of patients with unilateral choanal atresia postsurgically.METHODS: Three patients with unilateral atresia were examined in terms of olfactory performance with the Sniffin' Sticks test (odor identificatio
Dysfunctional water, sanitation and hygiene (WaSH) systems are mainly determined by poor water governance, exacerbating inequalities and poverty. Multi-stakeholder partnerships provide an approach to more flexible and adaptive governance to explore these problems. In this article, national commitments made to improve WaSH, made through the Sanitation and Water for All (SWA) partnership’s Mutual Ac
The focus of this chapter is the conversations with parents that were conducted during the project "Opportunities for preschool in a migrating world". The background for the conversations with parents lies in the preschool staff's perception that what makes their particular approach unique and valuable depends on the time and care they put into contact with the parents. Several aspects of the sect
The North-Western Sahara Aquifer System (NWSAS) shared by Libya, Tunisia, and Algeria is one of North Africa’s biggest nonrenewable groundwater storage systems. The management of its resources in a sustainable way will be central to regional stability, food security, and climate resilience. This book chapter discusses how transboundary cooperation along the NWSAS has evolved through facilitation b
The present work is one of nine parts making up the archaeological project The Öresund Fixed Link. The book begins with an account of all the features and artefacts that are considered to have belonged to the ideological sphere within the project. The focus is on two sites, one located on the coast, the other in the outer hummocky landscape. As regards remains on the coast, this work concentrates
OBJECTIVES: The main purposes were to document manifestations associated with prolonged or clinically unexplained C3 deficiency and to approximate how often hypocomplementaemia of this kind is caused by C3 nephritic factors (C3 NeF), i.e. autoantibodies to alternative pathway C3 convertases. We also wished to distinguish between C3 NeF types I and II and to assess coincident autoantibody responses
In order to examine contemporary Russian cinema, this thesis has two points of departure: firstly the Petersburg myth, which is here defined as reversible or ambiguous since it includes both an eschatological and a cosmogonic aspect; and secondly, the Petersburg literary text as defined in works by Vladimir Toporov. During the twentieth century, the vitality and actuality of the Petersburg myth wa
BACKGROUND: Cell membrane interactions rely on lipid bilayer constituents and molecules inserted within the membrane, including specific receptors. HAMLET (human alpha-lactalbumin made lethal to tumor cells) is a tumoricidal complex of partially unfolded alpha-lactalbumin (HLA) and oleic acid that is internalized by tumor cells, suggesting that interactions with the phospholipid bilayer and/or spe
Anti-phospholipid (aPL) antibodies are important contributors to development of thrombosis in patients with the autoimmune rheumatic disease systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). The underlying mechanism of aPL antibody-mediated thrombosis is not fully understood but existing data suggest that platelets and the complement system are key components. Complement activation on platelets is seen in SLE p
The aim of this report is to survey the risks connected with home for old people to be able to enhance security and decrease the inherent risks. The goal is to create a tool that will facilitate working with risk management at home for old people, and thus be able to increase security in daily life for the people who live there as well as for personnel and visitors. The starting point of this repo
Att arbetsmarknaden är i ständig förändring råder det ingen tvekan om. Produktionen av både tjänster och varor efterfrågar nya former för förvärvande av arbetsprestationer. Mer eller mindre nya grepp inom företagsvärlden som till exempel utkontraktering och projektanställningar vittnar om detta. Förändringarna gör att gränsdragningen mellan att vara arbetstagare och uppdragstagare inte kan förväntThe labour market is constantly changing. The production of both services and goods are now acquiring labour in new forms. More or less new tendencies in business management such as outsourcing and project assignments are realities today. These changes add complexity to the process of defining whether a person, the work performing part, is to be considered as employed by the principal or as an ent
Syftet med vår uppsats är att utifrån svenska mindre aktiebolags, revisorers och expertorgans perspektiv redogöra för om förslagen i propositionen ”Förenklade redovisningsregler m.m.” och BFNs ”Allmänna råd för K2 - mindre aktiebolag” överensstämmer med vad de anser behöver förenklas. Syftet är också att redogöra för vilken funktion redovisningen har för de mindre aktiebolagen och vilka konsekvens
Syftet med examensarbetet är att analysera om BFN stötte på problem vid upparbetningen, samt om vår expert och redovisningsekonomerna tror samma problem kommer att uppstå vid tillämpningen. Ändamålet är även att beskriva varför dessa kommer att bli problematiska och om andra problem kommer att uppstå. I teorin beskrivs gällande regelverk och kommande K2-regelverket för belysta problemområden samt
China is facing multiple challenges of environmental degradation, resource scarcity, and rapid urbanization. The challenges along with people's needs to improve living condition force China to value the importance of developing green buildings. In 2006 the first national green building assessment tool -‐ Evaluation Standard for Green Building (GBS) was released and widely implemented soon aft
Recent studies have identified a number of transcriptional regulators, including E proteins, EBF1, FOXO1, and PAX5, that act together to orchestrate the B-cell fate. However, it still remains unclear as to how they are linked at the earliest stages of B-cell development. Here, we show that lymphocyte development in HEB-ablated mice exhibits a partial developmental arrest, whereas B-cell developmen
Abstract in UndeterminedIn our modern society peoples attitudes towards animals are inconsistent, to say the least. Behind these heterogeneous attitudes there are several economic and cultural aspects. What possibilities do we have of studying relations between humans and animal, between nature and culture, in the distant past? What are our starting-points? How do we understand realities that diff
We conducted a first pilot study on healthy women living in two countries with different dietary habits, Granada in the south of Spain and Malmo in the south of Sweden, in order to compare their levels of plasma phospholipid fatty acids, and to examine the relationship between the differences in food consumption. This study is part of a pilot study which is nested in the European Prospective Inves
