Vaccine scepticism is often related to fears of potential side effects and to doubts regarding the safety and effectiveness of the injections. Alongside the medical issues, mass vaccination campaigns like the one related to the COVID-19 pandemic also have civic and epistemic effects connected to the engagement of people on the internet in matters concerning the vaccination and vaccination campaign

Purpose: The study aims to develop Amit & Zott (2014) framework that links the two perspectives the business model and dynamic capability approach. Scientific Method: A quantitative case study based on pattern matching. The study was made built through a cross-sectional design and has a deductive approach. Primary data was collected through semi-structures interviews. Secondary data was colle

This paper examines if electrification reduces the ecological footprint. By testing the relationship for 68 countries between 2000 and 2021, the hypothesis is not supported. The estimated results indicate that while electrification is associated with lower carbon emissions, it is linked with an increase in land use, regardless of the energy source used for electricity generation, introducing an en

I samband med utbildning inom digitala verktyg samt VFU kopplat till EDI väcktes intresse att undersöka vilka kunskaper som behövs för att undervisa i dator som instrument samt vad som ingår inom InSå-undervisning för en EDI:st på estetiska programmet. Detta resulterade i tre forskningsfrågor relaterade till EDI-undervisning på gymnasieskola: (i) Vilka ämneskunskaper inom EDI anser EDI-lärare behöIn relation with education regarding digital tools as well as internships related to EDI an interest was developed in researching what subject knowledge is needed in teaching this instrument, as well as what teachers incorporate in their instrument lessons on a high school level. Three research questions emerged from this in relation to primary instrument teachings on a high school level: (i) What

Metoderna som används för att göra den globala livsmedelsförsörjningen tryggare har bytt fokus från själva produktionen av jordbruksgrödor till att öka människors tillgänglighet till marknader. Analyser visar att det finns ett samband mellan inkomst, avlägsenhet, och hur stor andel av god jordbruksmark faktiskt används för jordbruk. För att beräkna tillgänglighet krävs fullständig, uppdaterad, ocContemporary approaches to improving food security amongst the world’s vulnerable populations have shifted from attempts to improve crop yield to improving accessibility to markets. Analyses show that there is a correlation between income, distance from cities, and the ratio of potential agricultural production to realised agricultural production. Complete, up-to-date, and reliable road network

Improvement of the Guatemalan national education system is a center for development. Many attempts have been made over the years to improve the system; one, in particular, is the creation of the National System for Teacher Training. This paper reviews the changes made to the National System for Teacher Training (SNFD) and places them into the larger context of the Guatemalan educational system. Th

In providing public goods, the government confronts challenges in determining the optimal pricing strategy due to the lack of information on individual preferences and the propensity of consumers to misreport their true valuations. Decentralisation of fiscal authority could be a partial solution to this problem, as lower government levels have better access the diverse regional and local preferenc

This study investigates the factors influencing the adoption and acceptance of cloud-based solutions within organizational contexts, emphasizing the strategic insights necessary for effective cloud migration. Cloud computing, marked by its scalability, has significantly transformed information technology landscapes. However, the adoption rates vary widely across industries, driven by diverse organ

Arktis står inför stora förändringar i samband med rådande klimat- och miljöförändringar, där de arktiska kusterna är utsatta. Förändringar i temperatur, havsnivå, stormar och havsisens utbredning är några av de faktorer som spelar in i hur kusterna och stränderna kan förändras. Syftet med studien är att först översiktligt se vilka kustmorfologiska förändringar som sker i Arktis idag och huruvida The Arctic is facing great changes due to current climate changes, where the Arctic coasts are especially vulnerable. Changes in temperature, mean sea level, storms and sea ice extent are some of the factors that shape how the coasts and beaches can be changed. The purpose of this study is firstly to examine what changes the Arctic coasts are experiencing today and whether they can be correlated t

Heparan sulfate is a highly modified O-linked glycan that performs diverse physiological roles in animal tissues. Though quickly modified, it is initially synthesised as a polysaccharide of alternating β-D-glucuronosyl and N-acetyl-α-D-glucosaminyl residues by exostosins. These enzymes generally possess two glycosyltransferase domains (GT47 and GT64)—each thought to add one type of monosaccharide Heparan sulfate is a highly modified O-linked glycan that performs diverse physiological roles in animal tissues.

AbstractObjective: To investigate the time to maximal platelet inhibition after an oral loading dose of ASA. The effect of ex vivo reversal platelet inhibition by desmopressin(DDAVP) was also studied.Methods: Ten healthy volunteers were given a 300 mg ASA-tablet. Blood was sampled at 0, 15, 30, 60, 120, and 180 minutes. DDAVP was added to the samplestaken at 120 minutes.Samples were analyzed with Objective: To investigate time to maximal platelet inhibition after an oral loading dose of ASA.

Macroeconomic crises are common as well as economically, socially and politically costly. Fiscal policy plays an important role in alleviating the costs of the crisis. However, recent experiences suggest that the public finances are often unprepared for a crisis. Deficits and debt levels prior to the crisis are commonly too high, limiting the government’s ability to support the economy through the

This chapter explores the history of emblems, which appear on a broad spectrum between printed literature, visual art, and material culture. Starting from Andrea Alciato’s Emblematum liber of 1531, the chapter explores multiple approaches on how emblems can be understood in the context of other multimodal media types such as insignia, badges, epigrams, hieroglyphs, and visual artifacts. Differenti

When designing concrete structures, there are great demands made on quality and service life of the construction, and for this the size of concrete cover is crucial. The concrete cover protects the reinforcement bars from carburization and from infiltration of chlorides, which make them corrode. When using today’s codes while designing, a thick concrete cover will yield a large crack width, which
