Due to globalization and international migration from Sweden, the option choose a life partner who is of migrant background has been increasing in Sweden. Despite growth greater ethnic racial diversity mixed marriages however, few researchers have studied such unions any great extent. This article focuses on which one person Swedish other different or background. It questions whether Sweden bec...

Limb use, an indicator of hemispheric functioning, may be a useful predictor of cognitive bias and hence vulnerability to welfare risk. The relationship between cognitive bias and motor asymmetry, however, has been subject to little investigation. This study explored the association between motor asymmetry and cognitive bias in the domestic dog, a species that displays lateral bias in the form ...

What these examples illustrate is that a particular Trajector (TR) can, in conjunction with a particular Landmark (LM), affect the interpretation of a preposition. On one hand, the interpretation ascribed to the sentence in (1) is that the LM, the bowl, contains or surrounds the TR, the fruit. On the other hand, in (2) the conventional interpretation is that the TR, the crack, constitutes a fla...

In Drosophila, antennae and legs are serially homologous appendages, and yet they develop into organs of very different structure and function. This implies that different genetic mechanisms operate onto a common developmental ground state to produce antennae and legs. Still few such mechanisms have been uncovered. During leg development, bowl, a member of the odd-skipped gene family, has been ...

Cooperation in prisoner’s dilemma games can usually be sustained only if the game has an infinite horizon. We analyze to what extent the theoretically crucial distinction of finite vs. infinite-horizon games is reflected in the outcomes of a prisoner’s dilemma experiment. We compare three different experimental termination rules in four treatments: a known finite end, an unknown end, and two va...

A simple method has been developed that allows frozen thin sections of fresh-frozen tissue to be cut on a virtually unmodified ultramicrotome kept at room temperature. A bowl-shaped Dewar flask with a knifeholder in its depths replaces the stage of the microtome; a bar extends down into the bowl from the microtome's cutting arm and bears the frozen tissue near its lower end. When the microtome ...

There is controversy over whether Ca(2+) binds to the BK(Ca) channel's intracellular domain or its integral-membrane domain and over whether or not mutations that reduce the channel's Ca(2+) sensitivity act at the point of Ca(2+) coordination. One region in the intracellular domain that has been implicated in Ca(2+) sensing is the "Ca(2+) bowl". This region contains many acidic residues, and la...

OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to determine the incidence of toxic trough serum gentamicin levels in neonates in the first week of life, with different dosage intervals. METHODS This was a retrospective study of neonates born between 01.07.95 and 31.12.95, who received gentamicin. Data were collected on birth weight, gestation, gentamicin dose, the trough level of gentamicin, serum crea...

Differences in virologic response were compared in 32 HIV-infected children with a nelfinavir trough concentration either below (n=7) or above (n=25) 0.8 mg/L. Virologic response at week 48 was observed in 29% of children with subtherapeutic nelfinavir troughs versus 80% in children with therapeutic nelfinavir troughs (P=.02).
