    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Employer branding; employer branding value propositions; employer attractiveness; human resources management; recruitment; retention; psychological contract; IT industry; IBM Watson; artificial intelligence; Industrial Economics and Management; Industriell ekonomi och organisation;

    Abstract : Attracting and retaining the best talent is a concern, particularly for knowledge-based firms in high-turnover industries, which rely on a limited supply of highly qualified individuals (Ewing, Pitt, De Bussy, & Berthon, 2002). In 2014, 36% of global employers criticized talent shortages, and in a 2015 study, 73% of CEOs reported being concerned about the availability of workers with key skills (Mosley, 2015). READ MORE

  2. 2. Laminar and turbulent particle laden flows : a numerical and experimental study

    Author : Seyed Hamid Tabaeikazerooni; Luca Brandt; Jeanette Hussong; Raffaella Ocone; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Suspension flow; inertial effect; turbulent duct flow; finite-size particles; Immersed Boundary Method IBM ; Astigmatism Particle Tracking Velocimetry APTV ; Engineering Mechanics; Teknisk mekanik;

    Abstract : Particle laden flows are widespread in nature and in industrial applications. Dust storms, geophysical flows, pharmaceutical processes, fluidized beds and blood flow are only a few examples. Both global and local properties of a particle laden flow may alter significantly in comparison to the corresponding single phase flow. READ MORE

  3. 3. Studies in sporadic inclusion body myositis

    Author : Snjólaug Arnardóttir; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : s-IBM; muscle fibre regeneration; cytoskeleton; IVIg; muscle inflammtion; cytokine; training; sensibility; neuropathy ;

    Abstract : Aims: The general aims of the present study were to increase the understanding of the disease process in s-lBM by analysing the cytoskeletal structure in muscle fibres and their regeneration potential; and also to evaluate sensory function in patients with s-IBM to test the hypothesis of an associated neurogenic component or a concomitant neuropathy in s-IBM; and to evaluate therapeutic options by analysing the effect of IVIg treatment on the muscle inflammation; and to evaluate the effect of training on muscle function and muscle inflammation. Patients: Twenty-six patients with the diagnosis of s41BM participated in these studies. READ MORE

  4. 4. lnclusion body myositis - Genetic, clinical, and epidemiological aspects

    Author : Ulrika Lindgren; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; inclusion body myositis; mitochondrial DNA; epidemiology; cytochrome c oxidase; inflammatory myopathy;

    Abstract : The inflammatory myopathy inclusion body myositis (IBM) is characterized by progressive muscle weakness and dysphagia in individuals over 45 years of age. Muscle biopsy shows inflammatory infiltrates, vacuoles with protein accumulation and cytochrome c oxidase (COX)-deficient muscle fibers. READ MORE

  5. 5. Immunohistological studies on muscle biopsies : clinical and pathogenetic aspects on inflammatory myopathies

    Author : Björn Lindvall; Göran Solders; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : Inflammatory myopathies constitute a heterogeneous group of disorders comprising polymyositis (PM), dermatomyositis (DM), inclusion body myositis (IBM), as well as overlap syndromes where inflammatory myopathy is associated with different inflammatory systemic diseases, e.g, Sjögren's syndrome.
