Norske allmennaksjeselskapers tilfredshet og lojalitet til deres revisjonspartner
2021
Master's thesis in Accounting and auditing (BE508) Tilfredshet i revisjonsbransjen har blitt nøye studert. Likevel er det en mangel på litteratur som studerer tilfredshet med selve revisjonspartnerne. Denne undersøkelsen ønsker å fylle dette gapet ved å studere norske allmennaksjeselskapers tilfredshet og lojalitet til deres oppdragsansvarlige revisjonspartner. For å besvare dette ble alle norske allmennaksjeselskap kontaktet, hvorav27% sa seg villig til å besvare et digitalt spørreskjema. Spørreskjemaets påstander ble utviklet etter en grundiggjennomgang av tidligere forskning. En faktoranalyse ble gjennomført for å bekrefte at påstandene målte det de var ment å måle, de ble benyttet i to …
Revisors kommunikasjon med styret : Hvordan kommuniserer revisor vesentlighet, risiko, plan og funn til styret i mellomstore aksjeselskaper? Samsvare…
2021
Master's thesis in Accounting and auditing (BE508) I revisorloven og revisjonstandardene er det satt krav til revisors kommunikasjon av vesentlighet, risiko, plan og funn. Oppgaven undersøker om revisor overholder disse kravene ved revisjon av mellomstore aksjeselskaper, og om informasjonen revisor gir samsvarer med styrets forventninger. Problemstillingen belyses gjennom tidligere forskning og litteratur på området. For å besvare problemstillingen benyttet vi kvalitativ metode og gjennomførte dybdeintervju med fire revisorer og fire styreledere. Vi starter masteroppgaven med å gi en overordnet oversikt over kommunikasjons-problematikken i en revisjonskontekts, ved å introdusere aktuelle ak…
Simultaneous stimulation of GABA and beta adrenergic receptors stabilizes isotypes of activated adenylyl cyclase heterocomplex
2004
Abstract Background We investigated how the synthesis of cAMP, stimulated by isoproterenol acting through β-adrenoreceptors and Gs, is strongly amplified by simultaneous incubation with baclofen. Baclofen is an agonist of δ-aminobutyric acid type B receptors [GABAB], known to inhibit adenylyl cyclase via Gi. Because these agents have opposite effects on cAMP levels, the unexpected increase in cAMP synthesis when they are applied simultaneously has been intensively investigated. From previous reports, it appears that cyclase type II contributes most significantly to this phenomenon. Results We found that simultaneous application of isoproterenol and baclofen specifically influences the assoc…
A comparative biochemical, pharmacological and immunological study of Clostridium novyi alpha-toxin, C. difficile toxin B and C. sordellii lethal tox…
1991
The three clostridial cytotoxins, i.e. alpha-toxin of C. novyi (Tox alpha-nov), toxin B of C. difficile (ToxB-dif) and lethal toxin of C. sordellii (LT-sor) consist of single peptide chains of about 200,000 (Tox alpha-nov), 250,000 (LT-sor) and 275,000 (ToxB-dif) mol. wts. ToxB-dif and LT-sor but not Tox alpha-nov cross-reacted with rabbit polyclonal antibodies. Toxicity upon i.v. injection in mice was similar (LD50, 100 hr, 50-200 ng/kg) and was characterized by a slowly developing fluid loss into the interstitial space. When injected into the rat paw the toxins caused a delayed local edema lasting for days. In vitro the three toxins provoked a persistent retraction of endothelial cells cu…
Proposals for improvement of Annex I of Directive 92/43/ EEC: Central Italy
2021
The main purpose of the 92/43/EEC Habitats Directive is to contribute to the conservation of biodiversity, understood as habitat types and species of the flora and fauna of the European Union. To achieve this goal, natural and semi-natural biodiversity as a whole must be recognized and included in its annexes. As for the conservation of biotopes, named habitat types, Italy is unfortunately lacking as it the Annex I does not include important ecosystems that are typical of its territory, rare for biogeographical reasons or threatened. Therefore, the opportunity to identify a first list of significant habitats for central Italy is discussed here. For each of the new proposed types (new habita…
Effect of Foot Orthoses and Shoes in Parkinson's Disease Patients : A PRISMA Systematic Review
2021
[Abstract] Reduced plantar foot sensation, postural instability, and gait difficulties are characteristic of Parkinson´s disease patients. A systematic review was carried out to determine the effect of the different types of insoles and shoes in these patients. Several databases were used to search for relevant articles reporting Parkinson´s disease patients undergoing treatment with any type of insole and footwear. All titles and abstracts were reviewed independently by two reviewers and the available data were extracted. The study eligibility criteria were any type of experimental study that included Parkinson’s disease patients treated with any type of insole or footwear. Eight studies w…

Baltijas valstu un Somijas tūrisma galamērķa tēla elementi Krievijas auditorijā
2022
Tēlam ir ļoti liela nozīme ceļojuma galamērķa veiksmīgā attīstībā, jo pozitīvs tēls palielina galamērķa atpazīstamību un ietekmē tūristu vēlmi apmeklēt šo galamērķi. Šī pētījuma mērķis ir izpētīt galamērķa tēlu veidojošos elementus, ko Krievijas ceļotāji veido un izplata par Baltijas valstīm (Igauniju, Latviju un Lietuvu) un Somiju. Šajā darbā tēls, tostarp tēla elementi tiek pētīti, izmantojot krievu tūristu atsauksmju, kas publicētas ar ceļošanu saistītās tīmekļa vietnēs, satura analīzi. Darbā tiek atklāti nozīmīgākie galamērķa tēla atribūti, tādi kā, kultūras un dabas resursi, atmosfēra, infrastruktūra, gastronomiskais piedāvājums un nakts dzīve, tīrība, drošība, vietējo iedzīvotāju vies…
First survey on zoonotic helminthosis in urban brown rats (Rattus norvegicus) in Spain and associated public health considerations.
2018
Abstract The brown rat, Rattus norvegicus, with a worldwide distribution, is the most commensal species among synanthropic rodents, since its main habitat, in urban as well as in rural areas, is always linked to humans. Therefore, people living in close proximity to rodent populations can be exposed to infection. Whereas bacteria and viruses are the best known rat-associated zoonoses in urban environments, the role of brown rats as reservoirs for helminth parasites and the associated risk for humans are less well known. Specifically, this role has not been analyzed in Spain to date. A total of 100 R. norvegicus trapped in the sewage system (n = 85), and parks (n = 15) of Barcelona was exami…
A gene transfer agent and a dynamic repertoire of secretion systems hold the keys to the explosive radiation of the emerging pathogen Bartonella
2013
Gene transfer agents (GTAs) randomly transfer short fragments of a bacterial genome. A novel putative GTA was recently discovered in the mouse-infecting bacterium Bartonella grahamii. Although GTAs are widespread in phylogenetically diverse bacteria, their role in evolution is largely unknown. Here, we present a comparative analysis of 16 Bartonella genomes ranging from 1.4 to 2.6 Mb in size, including six novel genomes from Bartonella isolated from a cow, two moose, two dogs, and a kangaroo. A phylogenetic tree inferred from 428 orthologous core genes indicates that the deadly human pathogen B. bacilliformis is related to the ruminant-adapted clade, rather than being the earliest diverging…
