  1. 1. Shifting Responsibilities and Shifting Terrains : State Responsibility, Corporate Social Responsibility and Indigenous Claims

    Author : Rebecca Lawrence; Barbara Hobson; Andrew Barry; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Indigenous rights; Corporate Social Responsibility; resource conflicts; welfare services; forestry; finance; windpower; internal colonisation; market rationalities; Sociology; Sociologi; Sociology; sociologi;

    Abstract : Using case studies from Australia, Sweden and Finland, and also drawing on examples from parts of Asia, including Papua New Guinea, Indonesia, and Thailand, the thesis explores how state and market actors respond to Indigenous claims and how Indigenous claims are themselves reconstituted through those particular responses. While the duty of protecting Indigenous rights might nominally fall upon the state, we are increasingly witness to the enfolding of market actors and market rationalities in debates concerning Indigenous claims.

  2. 2. Phylogenetic Relationships, Biogeography and Species Delimitation: A case study on southern African Silene (Caryophyllaceae)

    Author : Ntwai A. Moiloa; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Elisanthe; Illumina sequencing; Multispecies coalescent model; NGS; Phylogenetics; Phylogeography; species-trees; STACEY; target-capture;

    Abstract : The primary aim of this thesis was to explore the phylogenetic relationships and historical biogeography of African members of the plant genus Silene (Caryophyllaceae), with special focus on the eight native southern African taxa. Three loci (the nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacer region, and the rps16 and matK regions from the plastid genome) generated using traditional Sanger sequencing were used to infer the phylogenetic positions of African taxa, while sequence data from 28 low copy nuclear loci were generated using the target capture method to explore shallow phylogenetic relationships within southern African taxa.

  3. 3. Preventing Infections Related to Central Venous and Arterial Catheters

    Author : Fredrik Hammarskjöld; Bo-Eric Malmvall; Sören Berg; Håkan Hanberger; Bengt Gårdlund; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Central venous catheters (CVCs) are indispensable in modern medical practice. Serious complications associated with CVC use include catheter-related infection (CRI) and catheter related-bloodstream infection (CRBSI) both of which contribute to morbidity, mortality and healthcare costs.

  4. 4. Immune cells in human pharyngeal and palatine tonsils and in the uvula : tissue distribution, cellular composition and functional properties

    Author : Katarina Olofsson; Marie-Louise Hammarström; Sten Hellström; Britta Rynnel-Dagöö; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Abstract : The adenoid (pharyngeal tonsil), the palatine tonsils and the uvula are strategically located at the entrance of the upper airodigestive tract. By virtue of their location they are incessantly exposed to inhaled and ingested antigens. READ MORE
