Background: Cervical cancer is a public health challenge despite the available free screening service in Ethiopia. Early screening for cervical cancer significantly improves the chances of successful treatment of pre-cancers and cancers among women of reproductive age. Therefore, this study aimed to assess the uptake of screening and identify the factors among women of reproductive age. Methods: A

Today we are facing a big range of possibilities that may contribute to a sustainable development. The majority of the world’s populations are presumably trying to make the world a better place, but there is no agreement as to how this is to be achieved. There is no global consensus as to the values of how to do right and how to make the world a better place. As a result there exist a variety of c

The aim of this study was to see how the interdisciplinary collaboration between the substitute treatment and the social services are working. I wanted to see how the different organizations looked at each other and what they were expecting of each other, and how that could affect the collaboration. The study was conducted using a qualitative approach, semi-structured interviews with social worker

The purpose of the thesis is to investigate abandoned carts amongst logged in customers with at least one product added in to their cart and at least one visit to the payment page. Since the response variable "cart" is binary and we are studying the probability of a cart being abandoned, the suitable me

Problematiken kring räntesnurror uppmärksammades första gången på 1990-talet i det så kallade Mobil-Oilfallet. Vid denna tid var begreppet räntesnurror ännu inte myntat och Skatteverket hade inte insett att skatteplaneringsförfarandet kunde komma att årligen undandra staten flera miljarder kronor i skattepengar. Problemet låg i den obegränsade ränteavdragsrätten i 16 kap. 1 § IL som gjorde att konThe problem of interest turbines (Swedish: räntesnurror) was first recognized in the 1990s in the so-called Mobile Oil case. At this time, the concept of interest turbines was not yet coined and the Swedish Tax Authority had not realized that this kind of tax planning procedure could cost the state several billion crowns in tax money. The problem consisted in the unlimited interest deduction in ch

Dagens vägskyddsanläggningar är baserade på gammal reläteknik och är byggda på liknande sätt som på 1940-talet. År 2014 påbörjades projekt-Alex av Trafikverket med mål att byta ut dagens vägskyddsanläggningar mot en mer modern och driftsäker anläggning. Detta genom att uppdatera tekniken i vägskyddsanläggningarna till ett databaserat system som ska standardiseras och inte vara så anläggningsspecifToday's level crossing security systems are based on old relay-based technology and have been constructed in the same way since the 1940s. In 2014, Project-Alex was initiated by Trafikverket to replace the current level crossing security systems with a more modern and reliable system. It is done by updating the technology in the level crossing security systems to a computer-based system that i

Mitt examensarbete påbörjades i en fas där jag valt en plats som jag känner en viss hatkärlek gentemot. En hatkärlek som gett mig energi till att skapa min vision. Kärleken ligger i en slags projicerad minnesbild av en plats som idag inte är mycket mer än bara en plats. I ett landskap, cirka 70 meter från vattenbrynet i en badort på Skånes sydkust, står restaurang Pärlan övergiven. En plats som fMy thesis was initiated in a face where I had a chosen site which I feel both love and hate towards. This paradox motivated me to form a future plan for this place. The love I feel lays in a form of projected memory of a place which today not feels more then just an abandoned place. In a landscape, approximately 70 meters from the water in a seaside village in the south of Skåne, the old restaura

The Middle Ordovician (466 Ma) Osmussaar breccia, situated along the northwestern coast of Estonia, is rich in angular chromite grains of extraterrestrial origin (>13 grains kg(-1)) and shocked quartz. The angularity of the chromite grains implies that they have not been transported or reworked to any large extent, connoting that the brecciation is the result of a contemporary impactor, either as

Since my experience is that teachers in singing hardly ever talk about when to sing a tone, I have chosen to examine this fact through interviews and earlier research in this matter. The interviewed singing teachers belong to different genres (classical music, pop/rock, jazz and folk music). I asked them to share their thoughts about the word timing, when it comes to music. I also wanted to know i

The purpose of this essay was to compare the Swedish and the Japanese pension system and see if there were any big differences or similarities. I was looking for answers to such questions as if the systems were modelled with the problematic demographic situation in mind and also how these two countries had tried to manage the problems. Path dependency was also a central conception when I studied t

This thesis title starting from zero alludes to storstadssatsningen's democratic work being accomplished among immigrants in Malmö. My thesis examines which types of political participation storstadssatsningen were trying to increase. The goal was to turn the immigrants into political participants, but in many of the projects the democratic work had to focus on building a ground for democratic

Modernitet och intermedialitet is the first major study of the Swedish modernist writer Erik Asklund (1908-1980) and his works. The thesis consists of an introductory chapter and three close readings of Asklund’s early novels Kvinnan är stor (The Woman is Great, 1931), Lilla land (A Small Country, 1933), and Fanfar med fem trumpeter (A Fanfare with Five Trumpets, 1934). In these novels, Asklund de

Small acts and big effects Why should individuals act in a way that promotes Agenda 2030 goals and can we make them do so?

The philosophical debate about liberty has recently gained in complexity and political relevance through the revival of the republican understanding of liberty as the absence of asymmetric power relations or domination. As a staunch defender of the importance of theorizing liberty in this way, I nevertheless argue that a theory of liberty in the social world needs to be conceptually multifaceted a
