The purpose of this paper is to examine if foreign aid leads to a higher level of development when it is given to countries with higher levels of gender equality. The study examines the effects that foreign aid and gender equality have on development by assessing both their separate and interactive effects. I have used three different models, using two definitions of development and gender equalit
Ghana and Kenya have both made significant efforts to strengthen the skills profile of their young and growing workforces. Raising skill levels and matching workers correctly to jobs is believed to increase productivity and reduce unemployment. The purpose of this thesis is to explore the skills potential within the urban workforces of Ghana and Kenya using data from the Skills Towards Employment
Följande uppsats studerar hur män respektive kvinnor använder sig av det sociala mediet Facebook för att framställa ett visst uppträdande samt möjliga bakomliggande faktorer till beteendet. Facebook är ett populärt nätverk som hjälper människor att integrera med varandra både nationellt och internationellt. Genom de olika funktionerna kan individer presentera sin personlighet och styra sitt framtr
Obesity is a worldwide epidemic, affecting children as well as adults. Obesity is a major risk factor for number of chronic diseases, it is closely related to premature mortality and other negative effects on health-related quality of life. Obesity places great economic burden on states as well as obese individuals themselves. Addressing obesity seems an urgent matter, but who should be responsibl
Aim of the workshop: We invite colleagues to share experiences on cross-fertilization of art and social work research and to discuss how research-based art can serve as a catalyst for social change. Also, the workshop will give hands on knowledge on how to work with the method “deepened film talks”. Background: In a research project focusing moral stress and moral agency in social work, concrete s
A 24-hour bioblitz was performed by employees in the immediate surroundings of the Biological Institute in the city of Lund, South Sweden, on the 15th of June 2018. It produced 928 taxa, 411 of which were insects. Six species of Hymenoptera Parasitica were new to Sweden: Tumidiclava bimaculata (Blood), Lathromeris germanica (Girault), Aprostocetus crassiceps Graham, Quadrastichus anysis (Walker), Insect finds during the bioblitz of the Department of Biology in Lund in June 2018A 24-hour bioblitz was performed by employees in the immediate surroundings of the Biological Institute in the city of Lund, South Sweden, on the 15th of June 2018.

Background/Aim: The Kingdom of Cristal, an area in southern Sweden, is historically heavily burdened by heavy metals. Cadmium, lead, mercury and arsenic have previously been used in glass production and large amounts of glass crust have been deposited around the Kingdom of Cristal and used as filling material for the construction of new residential areas, parks and schools. The purpose of the proj
Only well-maintained railway systems can function without severe interruptions. However,maintenance activities can themselves cause train delays if they conflict with trainmovements. Trackwork refers to maintenance performed on a railway track. This studyaims to investigate the effect of trackwork on train delays in Sweden. It presents a logisticregression analysis based on more than 225,000 plannOnly well-maintained railway systems can function without severe interruptions.

The increase in electric vehicles has led to more vehicles of this kind being involved in accidents. Since there is a risk of a delayed initiation of thermal runaway in these cases, many countries have recommendations for safety distances from crashed vehicles to buildings. This report is a part of the effort to develop similar guidance for Sweden, which was initiated by the Swedish Civil ContingeThe increase in electric vehicles has led to more vehicles of this kind being involved in accidents.

BackgroundEarly identification of acute kidney injury (AKI) in the intensive care unit (ICU) remains challenging. We aimed to identify key predictors of new-onset AKI within 48 h after ICU admission and renal replacement therapy (RRT) need within 7 days, using explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) with eXtreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost). We also assessed whether XGBoost improved predictive peBACKGROUND: Early identification of acute kidney injury (AKI) in the intensive care unit (ICU) remains challenging.

Partially Premixed Combustion (PPC) has shown its potential by combining high combustion controllability with emission characteristics that are close to those of an HCCI engine. In order to get PPC the ignition delay needs to be long enough for the fuel and air to mix prior to combustion. This can be achieved by injecting the fuel sufficiently early while running with high EGR.In order to find outPartially Premixed Combustion (PPC) has shown its potential by combining high combustion controllability with emission characteristics that are close to those of an HCCI engine.
