Introduction: Despite Sweden’s commitment to ensure and achieve universal access to sexual and reproductive health (SRH) services, in line with the United Nations’ goals for sustainable development, there is evidence of limited SRH access and outcomes among women with insecure migration status in Sweden. For asylum-seekers and undocumented migrants, access to subsidised SRH services is regulated t
The global business environment has changed rapidly during the past decades; part of that change is the concept of Born Globals. Small and emerging companies are deviating from the traditional globalisation models with incremental steps to internationalisation in favour of turning global from inception. When a Born Global firm acquires Venture Capital, new demands on efficiency and returns are set
Aim: Maternal stress during pregnancy is a possible risk factor for schizophrenia in the offspring. Using data from the Israel Psychiatric Registry we examined the impact of wars in Israel. Method: Retrospective birth cohort study. Results: Relative risks for cohorts exposed to Six-Day War and Yom Kippur War were 0.98 (95% CI: 0.85-1.13) and 1.00 (0.86-1.16). Conclusion: The evidence for maternal
Background: while access to safe water in Uganda increased between the early 1990s and 2010, current studies are showing that many safe water sources are not being properly maintained and so end up being abandoned. Since the maintenance of safe water sources is under the jurisdiction of water user committees (WUCs), this study seeks to measure the ability of water user committees in mitigating a d
Nyckelord: Marknadsplanering, e-handel, situationsanalys, marknadsföringsstrategi, marknadsföringstaktik Syfte: Syftet med rapporten är att studera hur företag verksamma inom e-handeln arbetar med marknadsplanering när det kommer till situationsanalys, marknadsföringsstrategi samt marknadsföringstaktik. Metod: Med ett interpretativistiskt perspektiv har en kvalitativ studie i form av fyra djupgå
The production and consumption of material goods, and the expansion of globalised trade have led to an increased outsourcing of resource depletion and pollution by post-industrialised countries. Although governments with sustainability policies may have improved standards in process and production methods (PPMs) within their own territories, the consumption of imported goods continues to have nega
Unprecedented global challenges demand all-encompassing modification of societal realms to ensure life support functions and human development. In the absence of adequate responses to climate change at a global level and the need for place-based adaptation, local governments are gaining increasing attention to govern and implement solution options to foster sustainability transitions. In this cont
Background: The rapid increase in type 2 diabetes worldwide has mainly been attributed to lifestyle factors, including poor eating habits and physical inactivity. Type and quality of diet is a key factor in both prevention and treatment of type 2 diabetes. Aim: To investigate the association between diet quality and risk of type 2 diabetes. Methods and Subjects: This prospective study in the M
Background: Migrant health remains a rather under researched topic, particularly within the migration from and to countries within West Africa. For Cabo Verde, a ten-island archipelago, approximately 500 kilometers off the coast of Senegal, immigration is a fairly recent phenomenon and has caught the country off guard. The aim of this study was to explore how West African immigrants living in Cabo
Why are some regions rich and others poor? This study investigates the geographical origins of Italy’s persistent regional income gap. Using municipal population density as both a proxy for historical income and an outcome shaped by geography, we show that first-nature advantages, such as mild climates and fertile soils, predict higher population density in Northern Italy from the earliest availab
Abstract Due to a lack of marine macrofossils in many sediment cores from the estuarine Baltic Sea, researchers are often forced to carry out 14C determinations on bulk sediment samples. However, ambiguity surrounding the carbon source pathways that contribute to bulk sediment formation introduces a large uncertainty into 14C geochronologies based on such samples, and such uncertainty may not have
BackgroundMortality among children under five remains a significant health challenge across sub-Saharan Africa. HIV/AIDS is one of the leading contributors to the relatively slow decline in under-five mortality in this region. In Tanzania, HIV prevalence among under-five children is high and 90% of all infections are due to mother-to-child transmission.ObjectivesThe study aimed to examine the asso
Major atmospheric oxidants (OH,O3 and NO3) dominate the atmospheric oxidation capacity, while H2SO4 is considered as a main driver for new particle formation. Although numerous studies have investigated the long-term trend of ozone in Europe, the trends of OH, NO3 and H2SO4 at specific sites are to a large extent unknown. The one-dimensional model SOSAA has been applied in several studies at the S
Owing to climate change, population growth and tenurial changes, the past decade has witnessed high interest among migrant and settler pastoralist groups in thevegetal-rich customary lands of the Agogo Traditional Area. This has resulted in lease grants of large land areas to pastoralists by traditional authorities and usufructfamilies, for reasons of ensuring optimum use and gaining the highest r
Background: The aim is to identify trajectories of precarious employment (PE) over time in Sweden to examine associations of these with the subsequent risk of myocardial infarction (MI) and stroke. Methods: This is a nation-wide register-based cohort study of 1,583,957 individuals aged 40 to 61 years old residing in Sweden between 2003-2007. Trajectories of PE as a multidimensional construct and s
This article examines a Farsi-/Arabic-language Shi‘i ritual lamentation poem commemorating the Zaria Massacre of 2015, which saw hundreds of members of the Islamic Movement in Nigeria (IMN) led by Shaykh Ibrahim Zakzaky killed in clashes with the Nigerian army in the northern Nigerian city of Zaria, Kaduna Province. In addition to comparing the suffering of early-Muslim hagiographic figures with t
This chapter describes the Back to the Future (BTF) approach with illustrations of different data sets and their conclusions and stimulates the growth of such studies. The BTF Project included several studies that "discovered" old data sets, digitized them, carried out analyses and made data and analyses available in publications. An important aspect of the BTF approach is that the evidence of cha
Objectives This study aimed to explore multidimensional operationalizations of precarious employment (PE) in Swedish register data using two approaches: (i) a typological approach and (ii) a dimensional, summative scale approach. It also examined the distribution of sociodemographic and occupational characteristics of precarious employees in Sweden. Method Register data was retrieved on individual
Detta examensarbete tillämpar en kvalitativ fallstudieansats för att utforska hur digitalisering omformar modeindustrins värdekedjor – en bransch präglad av globalt fördelad produktion, korta produktlivscykler och växande hållbarhetskrav. Ett analytiskt ramverk utvecklas genom att integrera Porters värdekedjeperspektiv, Fords typstrategier för teknologi, Rayport och Jaworskis perspektiv på kundgrä
