The Bolivian Program to Support Employment provides subsidized training to the unemployed and helps comparatively untrained and inexperienced people improve their employability. Albeit this programme was discontinued in 2017, a second version is currently being implemented to continue its work. This impact evaluation assesses the impact of the PSE on employment, labor income and the quality of emp
Endotherms in cold regions improve heat-producing capacity when preparing for winter. We know comparatively little about how this change is fueled by seasonal adaptation in cellular respiration. Thus, we studied the changes of mitochondrial function in red blood cells in sympatric Coal (Periparus ater), Blue (Cyanistes caeruleus), and Great (Parus major) tits between autumn and winter. These speci

Popular Abstract in Swedish Sjukdomsuppfattningar. Värderingar och attityder hos patienter och medicine studerande. Utvecklingen av den biomedicinska kunskapen och de demografiska förändringarna under 1900-talet har inneburit en ökning av såväl behov av som efterfrågan på hälso- och sjukvård. Illabefinnande utan påvisbara sjukdomstecken och rädsla för sjukdom ligger ofta bakom vårdsökande. OfficieDuring the 20th century, the development of biomedical knowledge and the demographical changes have increased the needs and demands for health care in industrialised countries. Illness without evidence of disease and fear of disease are often the reasons for seeking medical care. Primary care is the official foundation of the Swedish health care system but priorities are vague and frequently chang
Popular Abstract in English How do people shape a life in exile? What does nation or homeland mean in such a life situation, and how is the inevitable social and moral turbulence – embedded in the migrant’s biography – employed and interpreted by the migrant herself? This study addresses these issues through an imaginative analysis of five life stories as presented by Hungarian women living in SwThis dissertation analyses the narrated life stories of Swedish Hungarian women, sharing the numerous values and experiences of Hungarian exiles. With the help of interview transcripts of five women from the first generation of Hungarians living in exile in southern Sweden, the study presents seldom-discussed angles of ascertained membership in the Hungarian nation, moving beyond traditional defin
Colonialism’ and ‘decolonization’ have been dealt with by postcolonial studies and, more recently, by scholars identified with the ‘de-colonial turn’. At the same time, in the ethnopolitically charged context of contemporary Bolivian society, colonialism and decolonization have become issues of political, existential and even cosmological import. This thesis identifies a need to root the ‘de-colon
The concept of sexual health encompasses many perspectives, such as pleasure, consent, safety and identity, but also physical health in terms of the absence of sexually transmitted diseases. At the Student Health Centre, we understand that sexual health is fundamental to the general health and well-being of students.

The result of this study showed that the scientific and technological stations (stations in short) play a pivotal role in rural development and experiences of these stations could be replicated in many other places. These stations have made the considerable achievements in enhancing socioeconomic development and functioned as a common platform for the rural areas. These stations have formed a net
Falsterbo Peninsula on the south coast of Sweden is low-lying and exposed to flooding. In 1872 the extreme storm surge Backafloden caused large devastation on the Swedish, Danish, and German coasts in the South Baltic Sea. For the Falsterbo Peninsula, the peak storm surge level is estimated to have been 240 cm above normal. If a similar event happened today, the consequences would be far worse, as
Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) plays an important role in neuronal survival through activation of TrkB receptors. The trkB gene encodes a full-length receptor tyrosine kinase (TrkB.FL) and its truncated (T1/T2) isoforms. We investigated the changes in TrkB protein levels and signaling activity under excitotoxic conditions, which are characteristic of brain ischemia, traumatic brain injur
PURPOSE: The prevalence of iron deficiency (ID) in Left Ventricular Assist Device (LVADs) recipients is not known nor has the association between ID and peak oxygen uptake (VO2) been reported. The aim of this study was to study to investigate the prevalence of ID in this population and the association between ID and VO2. METHODS: Data was included from LVAD recipients at Rigshospitalet, Denmark (D
