Objective: The longitudinal epidemiological development of the new variant of Chlamydia trachomatis was studied after appropriate testing procedures had been introduced when the strain was detected in 2006. Methods: The number of cases of the new variant of C trachomatis was followed from 2007 through 2011 from the laboratory records. Testing for C trachomatis is centralised to one laboratory wit
Adolescents with immigrant or ethnic minority background suffering from asthma receive on average less appropriate anti-asthmatic medication (AAM) than the majority population. However, those findings are based on analyses of differences between group averages which prevents our understanding of individual heterogeneity around the averages. Taking into account individual socioeconomic factors and
Ongoing debates on spatial justice often highlight bottom-up struggles by movements making demands on the state. This kind of narrative certainly reflects the limitations imposed by decades of neoliberal reforms that have pushed back the formal influence of grassroots in many areas. With the hegemonic formation that sustained neoliberal rule in prolonged crisis, there are now more openings for rad
In order to achieve environmental goals, the impact of the European building stock on the environment needs to be reduced through renovation measures. However, regarding heritage buildings, the choice of measure(s) must simultaneously consider the preservation of cultural and historical values. Besides the impact on such values, energy-efficiency measures can result in increased risks for moisture
I Sverige är man antingen begränsat eller obegränsat skattskyldig. Vem som är obegränsat skattskyldig regleras i 3 kap. 3 § IL. I detta lagrum finns tre olika grunder som var för sig kan leda till att en fysisk person betraktas som obegränsat skattskyldig inom riket. En av dessa är att man stadigvarande vistas i Sverige. Konsekvenserna för den enskilde kan bli mycket stora beroende på om hon betra
The purpose of our thesis is to describe how CSR is anchored in the public sector, and further to analyze how this work is organized throughout municipal organizations. We have applied a mixed methods approach conducting both a quantitative and a qualitative study. The quantitative approach involves a document study made on all 33 municipalities in the County of Skåne, while the quantitative appro
This multiple case study addresses the question concerning how multinational corporations handle their public affairs operations. In general, public affairs regard public private sector collaboration and include how companies can manage their governmental stakeholders. Nevertheless, is there a recipe for managing this more successfully? Public affairs have long been an issue for companies operatin
This paper examines the emergence of gender-neutral clothing, particularly during the period of 2015-2016 when there was a notable increase in interest surrounding the concepts of gender-neutrality and androgyny in fashion. The objective of this paper is to contribute new research to the field, as there is a lack of specific studies on gender-neutral clothing. To achieve this, the paper conducts i
The purpose of this thesis is to test whether firms have target capital structure, and if so with what speed they adjust toward this target. Findings that support this purpose are also in line with the trade off theory. One of the key elements of this thesis is the method used, which successfully enables fulfilling the purpose. The panel data method captures the data characteristics of the cross s
Open and shared government data and services offer an instrument for achieving innovation, interoperability, and transparency in public services but require relevant competency, resources, and culture to realise, something that the public sector actors often lack. In this case study, we exemplify how these challenges to data sharing may be tackled through horizontal coordination in the case of Tra
