Abstract:
Background:The family business is one of Sweden’s most common business forms, making up 90% of all firms and institutions. Also, it accounts for more than a third of GDP. So, it plays a vital role in the economy in Sweden. However, most of the family businesses are relatively small. Purpose:This paper aims to explore and understand the internal growth barriers to the small Swedish family business. Method:A qualitative method inspired by the inductive approach was conducted through semi-structured interviews with five owners of small family businesses in Sweden. The data were analyzed through

Bakgrund: Snabbväxande företag bidrar med majoriteten av alla nyskapade jobb i Sverige. Tidigare forskning har dock visat att dessa företag får problem i och med snabb tillväxt, något som leder till att de inte blir uthålliga över tid. Vid en kartläggning av tidigare studier påträffades en avsaknad av forskning som har till syfte att förklara varför snabbväxande företag inte är uthålliga, varav vi ansåg det vara av intresse att studera fenomenet interna tillväxthinder.  Syfte: Syftet med studien är att genom grundares perspektiv identifiera interna tillväxthinder inom snabbväxande företag.

Landslides cause significant damage worldwide and therefore epitomize the most important problems in geotechnical engineering. Hence, perceiving the mechanics involved in the deformation process of landslides is necessary for risk assessment. In addition to the resistance offered by basal shear surfaces, internal shearing also influences the stability and kinematics of compound landslides. For compound landslides, internal shearing is essential to develop feasible sliding mechanisms. The internal distortion is caused by the formation of shear bands that develop within the sliding mass.

The Thermal internal Boundary Layer (TIBL) is a dynamic and turbulent mesoscale feature of the coastal atmosphere that forms over the land during conditions of onshore flow. The TIBL develops as an adjustment of the atmospheric boundary layer to the discontinuities of temperature and roughness that occur at the interface between the underlying marine and terrestrial surfaces. The resulting formation of a characteristically convex mixed layer below relatively stable air aloft has serious implications for the dispersion of pollutants in shoreline environments.

Abstract:
The role of Placenta growth factor (PlGF) in physiological angiogenesis is quiescent, preclinical and human studies have established PlGF angiogenic activity to be regulated in pathologies. PlGF elicits its cellular functions via (vascular endothelial growth factor receptor) VEGFR-1 alone, and has gained more attention for its safety profile, especially when compared to the risks involved in VEGF-derived therapies. Loss and gain studies of PlGF function highlight the contribution of PlGF in disease aggravation or alleviation; however, factors regulating PlGF expression remains elusive.

Abstract:
Murine mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) isolated by plastic adherence contain contaminating cells and have poor growth and differentiation. I report a detailed protocol outlining the steps to prospectively isolate a pure and potent MSC population from murine bone marrow based on their expression of stem cell antigen-1 (Sca-1) and platelet derived growth factor- alpha (PDGFRα) (PαS cells) using flow cytometry. PαS MSCs have augmented growth potential and robust tri-lineage differentiation compared to plastic adherent cells. They exert potent immunosuppressive effects on proliferating naive CD4+ T

Abstract:
Objective. The present study explored people‘s subjective experiences of positive change to understand if experiences of growth are evident in people who have experienced trauma and psychosis. Design. Purposive sampling was used to recruit seven participants from local mental health support groups. All participants reported a diagnosis on the schizophrenia spectrum of disorders and were interviewed using a semi-structured interview schedule designed for the purpose of this study. Methods. Interviews were transcribed and analysed using interpretative phenomenological analysis. Results. Particip

Abstract:
The objective of this research is to study the impact of trade policy on growth in India in a time-series framework. This has been done in several steps. In the first step, a time-series index of trade policy was constructed and its relationship with growth was examined. In the second step, the impact of trade policy on exports was examined. In the next step, we investigated the issue of causality between export growth and income growth to see if the export-led-growth hypothesis is valid even for a 'large' country such as India. Finally, the alternative hypothesis of government-led-growth was
