The purpose of the study is to examine contemporary followers of Asatru in Sweden. Central to the study is the way Asatru today can be seen as an ethnic religion. Due to this will the ideas about Asatru as a folk religion among followers and the idea of Asatru as a form of “sed”, a term that can roughly be translated as a form of custom, be explored. Related to the idea of ethnic identity and Asat
Popular Abstract in Swedish Blodkärlens insida bekläds av ett lager platta celler, s.k. endotelceller. Syrgas, näring och hormonella signaler måste passera dessa celler för att nå ut till kroppens olika vävnadsceller. På endotelcellernas yta finns normalt strukturer som förhindrar att blodceller (vita blodkroppar och blodplättar) fastnar och därigenom underlättas blodflödet. Endotelcellerna bildarThe vascular endothelium is an important regulatory organ in circulatory physiology and plays a central role in the response to acute inflammation and ischemia/reperfusion. Activation and dysfunction of the pulmonary vascular endothelium are closely related to clinical findings of pulmonary dysfunction. The endothelial-derived relaxing factor, nitric oxide (NO), is a gas, which can be administered
Purpose of this paper The purpose of this paper is to present a comparative case study of the procedures and guiding principles in the packaging selection practice of two international companies. Design/methodology/approach A qualitative case study with an inductive approach was conducted. The data was collected through semi-structured interviews, documentation, and field visits. Findings Th
Popular Abstract in Swedish Ett högt fiberintag från grönsaker, frukt och sädesslag som havre och korn minskar risken för hjärt- och kärlsjukdomar och typ 2 diabetes. Havre och korn har en hög halt av lösliga kostfiber, så kallade beta-glukaner (beta-glukaner) och studier har visat att beta-glukaner har intressanta hälsoeffekter. Ett dagligt intag av beta-glukaner från havre eller korn kan sänka kSince soluble fibre in the form of the cereal beta-glucans found in oats and barley has been shown to have a positive effect on lipid and glucose metabolism, people at risk of developing cardiovascular diseases or diabetes might benefit from that a variety of palatable food products containing beta-glucans being available to them. The aim of the papers presented in the thesis was to evaluate the m
A study of the detection limits for the elements with Z = 15-92 in thick target steel surfaces using proton-induced X-ray technique has been performed. Samples were irradiated with a broad proton beam of 2 mm diameter and the X-rays were detected by a Si(Li) detector. Detection limits at levels down to the order of 10 ppm were achieved with simultaneous measurement of several elements. Mylar and
Objective This study provides the summary of current knowledge about migrant work in agriculture available from journal articles, books, reports and other relevant academic publications, focusing on political, economic, legal, social and medical aspects of migrant work in agriculture. Methods A systematic search was carried out on the LibHub and Google Scholar databases in order to compile the e
I striden om konfirmandläroboken Grunden blev det tydligt att inte bara biskopens yttre maktställning, utan också hans på många sätt moderna framtoning snarast skärpte motsatsen till moderniseringsprojektet på en bestämd front. Samtidigt skärptes den schartauska väckelsens gamla svårighet att förena väckelseperspektivets inriktning på individens tro med ämbets-perspektivets inriktning på kyrkans o
Neutrophil apoptosis is essential for resolution of inflammatory reactions. Here, we studied the role of two apoptosis/survival-associated protein kinases in this process. We discovered a previously undetected early and transient inhibition of the activity of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38 MAPK) during both spontaneous and Fas-induced apoptosis. Pharmacological inhibition of this enzyme
