Tonåringar utgör en viktig källa till flexibel och lågavlönad arbetskraft inom servicesektorn. Trots detta saknas forskning som belyser och problematiserar deras sysselsättningsmönster, anställningsvillkor och arbetserfarenheter – särskilt i en nordisk kontext. Denna avhandling analyserar gymnasieelever som arbetskraft i Sverige, i skärningspunkten mellan kundnära servicebranscher som är beroende

Pediatric complex regional pain syndrome (pCRPS) is a rare, painful state that often occurs as a complication following physical trauma. Diagnosis and treatment require specialist expertise in a multidisciplinary setting. Treatment is focused on pain reduction and improvement in function, which differs from the treatment of adult CRPS. We performed a cross-sectional survey with the aim of identify

Background: Survivors of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) may be at increased long-term risk of hospitalization for somatic diseases. However, large population-based cohort studies with risk estimates for survivors successfully cured without experiencing a relapse or requiring hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) are lacking. Methods: Danish and Swedish patients diagnosed wit

Manager och Civil Servant är en utforskning av aktörers förgivet tagna antaganden vilka styr uppfattningar kring hur offentlig förvaltning ska ske i samtida välfärdsstater. Det hävdas att mer än 30 år av pågående och riktade reformer gentemot den offentliga förvaltningen har orsakat dilemman att uppstå. Dessa dilemman har resulterat i en förskjutning av balansen kring några fundamentala pelare inoManager and Civil Servant is an exploration of actors’ taken-for-granted assumptions that govern perceptions concerning how public administration should be undertaken within contemporary welfare states. It is argued that more than 30 years of continuous reforms directed towards public administration have caused dilemmas to arise. These dilemmas have resulted in a shifting of balances regarding the

We can see more companies outsourcing different aspects of their business in order to focus on one or a few core competencies, which would potentially gain them morIn this dissertation, we discuss how buyers practice purchasing strategies in an asymmetric power situation favoring suppliers, and how their purchasing strategies practiced impact their purchasing power and buyer-supplier relationships. Organizations enter exchange relationships to access required resources not produced internally, and are exposed to uncertainty from not being able to fully contr

Aims/hypotheses: Smoking and use of smokeless tobacco (snus) are associated with an increased risk of type 2 diabetes.

I Sverige måste man som utgångspunkt samtycka till all hälso- och sjukvård. Det förutsätter att man har beslutsförmåga vilket för patienter med demens-sjukdom inte alltid är fallet. Tydliga regler för hur vård ska ges till patienter som inte har förmågan att samtycka och bestämma över sin vård saknas i Sverige. Denna framställning uppehåller sig kring denna problematik. Uppsatsen syfte är att undIn Sweden, consent is required for all health care. This requires the ability to make decisions, which is not always the case for patients with dementia. Clear rules on how care should be provided to patients who do not have the capacity to consent and decide on their care are lacking in Sweden. This presentation focuses on this problem. The aim of the paper is to examine the right to health of p

Sammanfattning Grundprincipen för utrymningsdimensionering är att tiden det tar att utrymma en byggnad ska vara mindre än tiden till kritiska förhållanden uppstår. Enligt Boverkets byggregler kan en inåtgående dörr till lokaler som rymmer fler än 30 personer bidra till köbildning vid utrymning, därför föredras att dörren öppnas utåt. Tvärtemot Boverkets byggregler är en utåtgående dörr vid vissaAbstract The purpose of the study was to investigate if the inwards door in a room that holds more than 30 people leads to queue formation. Queuing can lead to prolonged evacuation, which increases the risk of people still being in the room when critical conditions arises. In this study, movement times with inward and outward opening doors were examined as well as queuing in both directions. The s

This thesis aims to provide a case study for a critical theory of mythopoetics, via analysis of four ‘Brexit narratives’: The Bad Boys of Brexit by Arron Banks, Unleashing Demons by Craig Oliver, All Out War by Tim Shipman and The Brexit Club by Owen Bennett. My objective is to demonstrate the prevalence of mythopoetics in political and historical discourse, via analysis of four competing politica

Investigating the initiation of childhood leukemia Leukemia is a cancer of the early blood-forming cells, causing a rise in the number of white blood cells in your body. These extra white blood cells can’t fight an infection the way normal white blood cells do. This also causes a reduction on red blood cells, that supply oxygen, and also a reduction on platelets that clot the blood. Due to this
