To an ever-increasing extent, in scientific investigations of various kinds are data collected, which consists of verbal expressions. They may have been generated through verbal presentations, personal interviews, open questions or written accounts. Therefore, it is not unusual that an investigator is confronted with data collections that appear to be “unstructured” and of an extent that it seems

Addressing smoking during pregnancy:The challenge to start from the woman's view

Popular Abstract in Swedish Kvinnor känner till att det är riskabelt att röka när de blir gravida. Trots detta så slutar bara omkring hälften i Sverige och var tredje kvinna i många andra länder att röka när de blir gravida. Syftet i den här avhandlingen har varit att studera varför det är så svårt för gravida kvinnor att sluta röka. Problemområdet har studerats med olika utgångspunkter; gravida kThe aim of this thesis has been to increase understanding on the process of smoking cessation during pregnancy from the perspective of learning. The smoking pattern before and after pregnancy related to health, Sense of Coherence (SOC) and social issues was studied among all pregnant women in south-east Skåne during the period March 1994 to August 1995. They were asked to fill in a questionnaire d

Enhancement of the immunosuppressive effect of cyclosporin A by ciprofloxacin in a rat cardiac allograft transplanation model

Ciprofloxacin hyperinduces interleukin-2 production in stimulated human and mouse lymphocytes. In this study, an enhanced and prolonged interleukin-2 response was also detected in polyclonally stimulated rat splenocytes in the presence of ciprofloxacin (5–80mgrg/ml) compared to control cells without any antibiotic. Ciprofloxacin was able to counteract the immunosuppressive effect of 10ng/ml cyclos

Captured Countryside? Stability and Change in Sub-national Support for African Incumbent Parties

Many existing accounts of African elections assume that voters base their electoral decisions on cues and incentives that are anchored in highly stable ethnic cleavage structures. Yet several newer contributions to the study of African electoral politics have questioned the ethno-clientelistic voting thesis and highlighted other determinants of vote choice, such as class, ideology and performance

Wave splitting and imbedding equations for a spherically symmetric dispersive medium

The direct problem of time dependent electromagnetic scattering in the dispersive sphere is solved by a wave splitting technique. The electric field is expanded in a series involving vector spherical harmonics, leading to a system of wave equations for each term. These systems are reduced to scalar wave equations for each term, which are solved via reflection operators. Some preliminary numerical
