The Glass Ceiling is a proven and documented phenomenon for several countries. This paper tries to trace its existence of changing behaviour in the gender pay gap across the income distribution between the periods 1970 and 1990, and through a selection of professions for the highly educated individuals. This will show at the same time the transformation suffered by Swedish labor market between tho
Upplevelser hos människor som söker asyl eller flyktingstatus präglas av olika prövningar och svåra upplevelser innan, under och efter migrationen, vilket gör dessa individer mer mottagliga för att utveckla psykisk ohälsa. Denna scoping review syftade till att kartlägga och utforska relationen mellan postmigrationsstressorer (såsom utmaningar relaterade till legal status, ekonomi, boendesituation,Experiences of people seeking refuge and asylum are characterized by diverse adversities before, during, and after migration, making these individuals more susceptible to developing mental ill health. This scoping review intended to map and explore the relation between post-migration stressors (such as struggles related to legal status, finances, housing, and discrimination in the context of reset
The impact of the sourcing department has gotten more and more attention in the past couple of decades. This has resulted in numerous frameworks and scorecards to guide companies through different sourcing decisions. This interest in sourcing has grown side by side with the increased globalisation and outsourcing. Therefore, relevant measurable criteria have moved from a supplier-oriented level, t
This thesis has investigated the municipal urban project Warszawska Dzielnica Społeczna (WDS) in the district of Wola, Warsaw, Poland. WDS was a city initiated urban project presented in 2019. The project has not been realized. When speaking to city officials, it remained unclear as to why. Therefore, it was found interesting to investigate why the organization that initiated the project, did not
Cities face a host of challenges including urbanisation and climate change and must quickly adapt and integrate sustainability solutions to deal with these challenges. One platform seen as a mechanism to support innovation for sustainability in cities is the concept of the living lab. A living lab is a user-centred, open innovation ecosystem that seeks to engage academia, industry and municipaliti
New legislation involving emissions from internal combustion engines are pushing the manu-facturers to develop new technology faster than ever before with the amount of greenhouse gases. To meet the standards new concepts need to be developed with lower fuel consumption and emissions. This thesis covers the implementation of a couple of methods to achieve this. These concepts are DEP with fully va
The purpose of this thesis is to investigate the relationship between space and consumer interaction at WEEKDAY, a contemporary fashion retail store in Malmö, Sweden. The thesis is based on a qualitative case-study and has a social constructionist approach. In order to understand the interaction taking place between consumer and environment we conducted observations guided by Kenneth Burke’s Penta
OBJECTIVE: Traditional rejection surveillance after heart transplantation (HTx) is based on endomyocardial biopsies (EMB), which are invasive, expensive and associated with complications. Monitoring using cell-free DNA (cfDNA) is promising, but most studies report only on the donor fraction (DF) as the percentage of donor derived-cfDNA (dd-cfDNA) relative to total-cfDNA. We evaluated the performan
Rare earth elements (lanthanides) are critical materials for many applications, particularly those involved in new energy. Extracting these elements economically from low-concentration sources may be challenging. This study investigates the interaction of Ce and Gd with microalgae that have been triggered to form phosphate-rich granules. Lanthanides usually occur in nature as phosphates, and there
Background: Many children who have overweight or obesity before puberty can develop obesity in early adulthood, which is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. The preschool years (ages 0-5) represents a point of opportunity for children to be active, develop healthy eating habits, and maintain healthy growth. Surveillance of childhood overweight and obesity in this age group can help
Understanding metabolic processes of soil fungi is essential for elucidating their ecological roles in biogeochemical cycles and responses to emergent environmental stressors. Here, we demonstrate the potential of using stable isotope probing Raman (SIP-Raman) microspectroscopy in microfluidics technology-based soil chips to trace glucose metabolism rates and stress responses in laboratory grown f
This study was aimed at investigating the psychometric properties of the Interview Schedule for Social Interaction (ISSI), in terms of construct and discriminant validity and unidimensionality, in three psychiatric samples with varying prerequisites for social interaction: 1) an outpatient sample of working age with mixed diagnoses, 2) an outpatient sample with schizophrenia, and 3) an inpatient s
Previous studies suggested a link between the use of G-CSF and increased incidence of myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML) after immunosuppressive therapy (IST) for severe aplastic anemia (SAA). This European survey included 840 patients who received a first-line IST with (43%) or without (57%) G-CSF. The incidences of MDS/AML in patients who did or did not receive G-CSF
