Misgivings about universal developmental sequences in nonnative acquisition of syntax

Several recent international publications (e.g. Platzack 1996, 2001; Håkansson, Pienemann & Sayehli 2002; Pienemann 1998; Pienemann & Håkansson 1999) have claimed that learners take the same developmental route in the acquisition of syntax of a second or foreign language, irrespective of their first language (L1). Targetlike verb placement in a Germanic V2 language like German, Dutch or Sw

Planering eller frigörelse? : En studie om bemyndigande

Popular Abstract in Swedish Den rättighetslagstiftning som presenterades i handikapputredningens slutbetänkande (SOU 1991:46), Lagen om stöd och service till vissa funktionshindrade, LSS, visade att samhällets välfärd i ett etiskt perspektiv är något som angår alla. Kravet på samhällssolidaritet innebär enligt utredningen att samhällets insatser måste utformas i enlighet med kvalitetskrav som syftThe legislation on rights that was presented in the final report of the commission of inquiry into handicap (SOU 1991:46), the Act concerning Support and Service for Persons with Certain Functional Impairments, showed that, from an ethical point of view, society´s welfare is something that concerns everyone. The demand for social solidarity, according to the inquiry, meant that public measures mus

This article deals with the dilemma in queer politics: assimilation or non-assimilation: what is the "proper" object of politics and who is the "proper" politician?

Dissolution of a polyelectrolyte-macroion complex by addition of salt

The dissolution of complexes formed by a linear polyelectrolyte and oppositely charged macroions by addition of salt has been examined by employing a simple model with focus on the electrostatic interactions and solved by Monte Carlo simulations. In the absence of salt an overcharged complex appears. Upon addition of salt, the number of complexed macroions is continuously decreasing, the effect be

Romanfigurer ger liv åt tentans patientfall

I Lund avslutas läkarutbildningens tionde termin med en MEQ-skrivning (Modified Essay Questions). Höstterminen 2002 hämtade vi bakgrundsmiljö och persongalleri till frågornas fallbeskrivningar från ett skönlitterärt verk. Initiativet föll väl ut hos studenterna – de tyckte att boken var bra och att upplägget var utmärkt. Också författaren var nöjd – efter vår »medikalisering« lärde han känna sina

Inhibition of calcium entry preserves contractility of arterial smooth muscle in culture

The addition of the growth stimulator fetal calf serum (FCS, 10%) to rings of rat tail artery causes an increase in [Ca2+]i, accompanied by contraction. This response was inhibited by the calcium entry blocker verapamil (1 microM). To investigate the effect of Ca2+ entry blockade on growth and contractility, rings of rat tail artery were cultured for 4 days in medium with or without FCS and then m

Sexually transmitted diseases and gynecologic symptoms and signs in women with a history of induced abortion

PIP: This study examines the relationship between a history of induced abortion and current or previous sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) and other gynecologic symptoms. Study participants consisted of a cohort of women attending 2 family planning and 1 youth clinic; 192 were admitted with history of induced abortion and 804 women served as controls. A structured interview to obtain data on pre

Exudation of low molecular weight organic acids by germinating seeds of two edaphic ecotypes of Silene nutans L.

Two parapatric ecotypes of Silene nutans, exhibiting distinct allozyme patterns, morphology and autecology were investigated for differences in exudation of low molecular weight organic acids from germinating seeds, and for differences in seed phosphorus content. The calcicolous ecotype is restricted to calcareous soils, and the silicicolous one predominantly occurs on acid soils, and sometimes, a

Neural regeneration along longitudinal polyglactin sutures across short and extended defects in the rat sciatic nerve

Object. The authors have previously shown that longitudinal sutures without artificial tube support regeneration across a 7-mm gap in the rat sciatic nerve. In the present study, the authors, compared this new approach with the use of autologous nerve grafts across short defects and examined whether the approach could be used to support regeneration across extended gaps and whether the interpositi

Global gene expression analysis in a mouse model for Norrie disease: late involvement of photoreceptor cells

PURPOSE: Mutations in the NDP gene give rise to a variety of eye diseases, including classic Norrie disease (ND), X-linked exudative vitreoretinopathy (EVRX), retinal telangiectasis (Coats disease), and advanced retinopathy of prematurity (ROP). The gene product is a cystine-knot-containing extracellular signaling molecule of unknown function. In the current study, gene expression was determined i

Neuropeptide expression in the human trigeminal nucleus caudalis and in the cervical spinal cord C1 and C2.

In migraine and other primary headaches there is a strong vascular component. Besides the trigeminovascular components some of the associated symptoms point to the involvement of brain stem regions. The central limb of the trigeminal vascular pathway is its projection to the trigeminal nucleus caudalis (TNC) and to the C1-C2 levels of the spinal cord. The aim of the present study was to demonstrat

Alterations in regulation of energy homeostasis in cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase 3B-null mice

Cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase 3B (PDE3B) has been suggested to be critical for mediating insulin/IGF-1 inhibition of cAMP signaling in adipocytes, liver, and pancreatic beta cells. In Pde3b-KO adipocytes we found decreased adipocyte size, unchanged insulin-stimulated phosphorylation of protein kinase B and activation of glucose uptake, enhanced catecholamine-stimulated lipolysis and insulin-

Dilatation and curettage fails to detect most focal lesions in the uterine cavity in women with postmenopausal bleeding

OBJECTIVE: To determine the prevalence of focally growing lesions in the uterine cavity in women with postmenopausal bleeding and endometrium > or = 5 mm and the extent to which such lesions can be correctly diagnosed by D&C. METHODS: In a prospective study, 105 women with postmenopausal bleeding and endometrium > or = 5 mm at transvaginal ultrasound examination underwent diagnostic hysterosco
