This qualitative research explores the measures of civil society organisations (CSOs) in the labour market integration of female refugees. For this, expert interviews with five 'best practice' CSOs in Germany were conducted to highlight the measures the initiatives take in light of the obstacles they face in their work. The results show that both tangible and intangible measures are taken,
Syftet med uppsatsen är att undersöka hur amerikanska påståenden kring Irakiska massförstörelsevapen användes som övertalningsmedel innan och omedelbart efter invasionen av Irak 2003. Detta görs via en kvalitativ innehållsanalys. Analysen utgår från Jowett och O`Donnells teoretiska ramverk på tio punkter för analys av propaganda. Dessa operationaliseras och appliceras på källmaterialet. Källmateri
Massmarknadsföringens framfart har gjort konsumenter mer resistenta mot stormen av information och budskap. För att nå den enskilde konsumenten direkt och med träffsäkerhet har många företag insett värdet av informationen. Den privata informationen som samlas in av företag används för att rikta marknadsföringen och på så sätt nå fram genom mediebruset med ett personligt och träffsäkert budskap. Fe
Title: Configuring the storage and return flow processes of reusable packaging for battery cells: A design science study of a global battery cell manufacturer Author: Linnea Sjöberg Supervisor: Joakim Kembro, Division of Engineering Logistics, Faculty of Engineering, Lund University. Problem Description: As reusable packaging is becoming increasingly popular, the already existing warehouses need t
Event marketing can be seen as an effective tool building a brand in a retail context since it can enhance brand awareness, brand identity and brand image. This, since it provides experiences stimulating consumers´ five senses adjusted to today's experience demands of consumers. Event marketing is effective catching consumers attention in today's media noise compared to traditional adverti
Good health is of utmost importance to individuals and economic growth. Nevertheless, inequalities concerning health services and conditions are observed in developed as well as developing countries. Often such disparities are related to ethnicity, with indigenous populations exhibiting lower health performance. Bolivia features a large indigenous population, which still experiences disadvantages
Klimatförändringarna förväntas påverka skogar i de tempererade och boreala zonerna och leda till omfattande förändringar i ekosystemens struktur och funktion. Därför behövs analyser av sannolika utfall av olika scenarier av ökad klimatpåverkan på lång sikt, för att förbättra kunskapsunderlaget och stödja beslutsfattande inom skogssektorn. För skogsägare innebär klimatförändringarna ett behov att öClimate change is expected to affect temperate and boreal forests, potentially causing profound changes to the functioning and the structure of ecosystems. This calls for assessments of the plausible long-term outcomes of a range of climate change scenarios to increase the knowledge base for decision making in forestry. Forest owners need to consider whether current silvicultural management practi
Background and objective: There is an unmet need to avoid long-term morbidity associated with standard cytotoxic treatment for low-volume metastatic seminoma. Our aim was to assess the oncological efficacy and surgical safety of retroperitoneal lymph node dissection (RPLND) as treatment in a population-based cohort of metastatic seminoma patients with limited retroperitoneal lymphadenopathy. Metho
Few studies have investigated the real-life outcomes of interdisciplinary multimodal pain rehabilitation programs (IMMRP) for chronic pain. This study has four aims: investigate effect sizes (ES); analyse correlation patterns of outcome changes; define a multivariate outcome measure; and investigate whether the clinical self-reported presentation pre-IMMRP predicts the multivariate outcome. To thi
A search for leptoquark pair production decaying into te-t¯e+ or tμ-t¯μ+ in final states with multiple leptons is presented. The search is based on a dataset of pp collisions at s=13TeV recorded with the ATLAS detector during Run 2 of the Large Hadron Collider, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 139 fb-1. Four signal regions, with the requirement of at least three light leptons (electron
The entanglement of business and consumption practices have been neglected in prior consumer research. We address this issue by developing the concept lifestyled business practice. Through a study of criminal gangs in Sweden we contribute by developing three main entanglements of business practice; hedonic structures, stylized intelligence and sonic monetizationThe entanglement of business and consumption practices have been neglected in prior consumer research.

The Amsterdam 2022 International Consensus Statement on Concussion in Sport (6th International Conference on Concussion in Sport) was the first Concussion in Sport Group (CISG) consensus to consider the para athlete.1 To date, a lack of research in para sport on most aspects of concussion has prevented the development of evidence-informed consensus on any aspects of concussion care for para athlet
Background: With the availability of a wrist-worn device capable of acquiring two ECG leads with a single touch, synthesis of the 12-lead ECG may be accomplished to facilitate clinical interpretation. Objective: This study proposes an echo state network (ESN) for synthesizing the 12-lead ECG from two leads simultaneously acquired using a wrist-worn device. Methods: The wrist-worn device, equipped
Effluent wastewater contains organic micropollutants (OMPs) that harm aquatic ecosystems. Therefore, wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) need to expand their facilities with advanced water treatment technologies. Water scarcity and improved effluent quality is encouraging the reuse of treated effluent. This study thus has a dual purpose: first, to evaluate OMP removal using two technique combinati
Although high-level evidence is currently lacking, noninferiority randomised controlled trials in predefined risk groups in non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer are under way to scientifically prove the safety of urinary biomarker-guided follow-up. To facilitate recommendations for clinical use, it is essential to comply with the EU certification for in vitro diagnostics and to demonstrate cost effe
A search is reported for long-lived dark photons with masses between 0.1 GeV and 15 GeV, from exotic decays of Higgs bosons produced via vector-boson-fusion. Events that contain displaced collimated Standard Model fermions reconstructed in the calorimeter or muon spectrometer are probed. This search uses the full LHC Run 2 (2015–2018) data sample collected in proton–proton collisions at s=13 TeV,
Objective: To validate the ISGPS definition and grading system of PPAP after pancreatoduodenectomy (PD). Summary Background Data: In 2022, the International Study Group for Pancreatic Surgery (ISGPS) defined post-pancreatectomy acute pancreatitis (PPAP) and recommended a prospective validation of its diagnostic criteria and grading system. Methods: This was a prospective, international, multicente
