Fortfarande vid slutet av mars 2014 stod 1,5 miljoner personer i arbetskraften utanför a-kassan trots att avgifterna i många fall sänktes väsentligt då den så kallade arbetslöshetsavgiften avskaffades 1 januari 2014. I artikeln hävdas att taket i arbetslöshetsförsäkringen måste höjas för att göra försäkringen mer attraktiv. Idag är de arbetslösas ersättning från a-kassan nästan nere på socialbidra
The resonance lines in Li I and Na I both exhibit a puzzling discrepancy between experiment and accurate ab initio calculations. Only results from a semiempirical method, that in principal neglects core-core correlation, agree with the experiments. The agreement with a multiconfiguration Hartree-Fock calculation, including only core-valence correlation, shows that this might be fortuitous. A metho
We describe the use of a two-wavelength beam deflection technique in the measurement of electron density and expansion velocity in a laser-produced plasma. Beam deflection measurements are made with a spatial resolution of 250-mu-m, temporal resolution of 25 ns, and a dynamic range of 1000. Several techniques for determining the spatial and temporal variation of the electron density from beam defl
OBJECTIVE.: To quantify immunoglobulin and C1q on circulating cell-derived microparticles (MPs) in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and to correlate this with clinical and serological parameters. METHODS.: Sixty-eight clinically well-characterized SLE patients, 38 healthy controls (HC), 6 systemic sclerosis (SSc), and 6 rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients were included. The numbers of annexin V-b
Electroconvulsive seizures (ECS), an animal model of electroconvulsive therapy, strongly stimulate hippocampal neurogenesis, but it is not known how this relates to the therapeutic effect or to the unwanted cognitive side effects. Recent findings suggest that neurogenesis might be important for flexible learning in changing environments. We hypothesize that animals receiving ECS treatment, which i
The aim of the study was to explore nursing students' experiences of aspects important for their learning process and their ability to handle the complexity of the nursing degree program. The study was longitudinal and qualitative based on interviews with nursing students, six women and two men aged 20-36, during their three years of education. In all, seven patterns were found embracing aspects o
Structural changes to the lung are known to be associated with chronic asthma. In addition to the well-described alterations to the airway wall, asthma is also associated with vascular modifications, although this aspect of remodeling is poorly understood. We therefore sought to evaluate the character and kinetics of vascular remodeling in response to chronic aeroallergen exposure. However, since
Systemic hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) is accomplished when a patient is breathing 100% oxygen in an environment with increased barometric pressure. A typical HBO treatment protocol of diabetic foot ulcer involves 20 to 40 sessions. Treatment is usually given as daily 90- to 120-minute HBO sessions at pressures between 2.0 and 2.5 absolute atmospheres. The wide use of HBO as treatment of diabetic foot u
Blood parasites of migrating yellow wagtails of two subspecies-Motacilla flava feldegg and Motacilla flava flava-were studied on a sample of 473 birds caught in spring and autumn periods in Bulgaria. We controlled eight "migration waves" (flocks captured in different evenings) of yellow wagtails for four parameters-average body mass, average fat level, average wing length, and average prevalence o
The actin cytoskeleton is a dynamic superstructure that regulates multiple cellular functions and that has been implicated in cell death regulation. We investigated whether modulating the neuronal actin cytoskeleton polymerization by Rho GTPase kinase (ROCK) inhibition influences cell death in hippocampal neuronal cultures and in murine organotypic hippocampal slice cultures subjected to in vitro
OBJECTIVE: This study explored the relationships between carotid intima-media thickness (IMT), plasma levels of C-reactive protein (CRP), and incidence of heart failure hospitalizations. METHODS AND RESULTS: Men and women from the general population (n=4691), without history of myocardial infarction or stroke, were examined. Incidence of hospitalizations attributable to heart failure was studied o
Metazoan species, from sponges to insects and mammals, possess successful defence systems against their pathogens and parasites. The evolutionary origins of these diverse systems are beginning to be more comprehensively investigated and mapped out. We have collected 1811 metazoan immunity genes from literature and gene ontology annotations. Tentative orthologs of these genes were identified using
Aims: This study used nationwide hospital records to examine sibling risk of any type of anxiety disorder in Sweden over a 40-year period. Methods: This study, carried out between 1 January 1968 and 31 December 2007, of the entire population of Sweden, linked information on family relationships from the nationwide Multi-Generation Register with information from the nationwide Swedish Hospital Disc
Immobilized metal affinity chromatography (IMAC) has been the method of choice for phosphopeptide enrichment prior to mass spectrometric analysis for many years and it is still used extensively in many laboratories. Using the affinity of negatively charged phosphate groups towards positively charged metal ions such as Fe(3+), Ga(3+), Al(3+), Zr(4+), and Ti(4+) has made it possible to enrich phosph
