This study examines the relationship between global news narratives and market volatility, focusing on the VIX index as a measure of investor sentiment. By analyzing financial news headlines from 2023, the research investigates whether keyword frequencies related to terms like conflict, recession, and bullish can predict changes in VIX. The study employs multiple regression, time series analysis,
This study aims to scrutinise Serbia’s adaptation to the Copenhagen criteria between 2017 and 2024, by examining the country’s progress and challenges in its path toward EU membership. By using Andrew Moravcsik’s Liberal Intergovernmentalism as the theoretical framework, the research analyses how domestic political preferences, institutional dynamics and international bargaining have shaped Serbia
Violence against women is a major public health concern. Comparative research on outcomes across different service providers remains limited. Method: Women seeking support from social welfare units or women's shelters were recruited from six organizations in Sweden. A pre–post design was applied, with structured interviews and questionnaires at baseline and 1-year follow-up. Fifty-one women partic

The critical role of hematological stem cells, concentrated in bone marrow, in disease diagnosis makes the detection of these cells an imperative task. The current process, however, is slow and heavily reliant on expert interpretation, underscoring the need for automation. In this thesis, we collected a 20x microscopy dataset of real and fake bone marrow particles and fine-tuned several CNNs and T
This article presents a search for new resonances decaying into a Z or W boson and a 125 GeV Higgs boson h, and it targets the νν¯ bb¯ , ℓ+ℓ−bb¯ , or ℓ±νbb¯ final states, where ℓ = e or μ, in proton-proton collisions at s = 13 TeV. The data used correspond to a total integrated luminosity of 139 fb−1 collected by the ATLAS detector during Run 2 of the LHC at CERN. The search is conducted by examin
Post hoc interventions rely on having access to certain personal data - such as the gender, age, ethnicity, and sexual orientation of the persons being evaluated - in order to detect and correct for prejudice. This brings these interventions into possible tension with pertinent data protection legislation, which might restrict the processing of said data. We discuss the compatibility of post hoc i

This doctoral thesis investigates the relationship between socioeconomic status and the onset of cardiovascular disease in a contemporary population of natives and foreign-born individuals in Sweden. The complexity of individual socioeconomic characteristics and the interrelationship with other cardiovascular risk factors is the focus of the studies in this thesis. As in most developed countries,
OBJECTIVE - Low-grade chronic inflammation has been hypothesized to underlie the constellation of cardiometabolic risk factors, possibly by inducing insulin resistance. In the present study, we investigated associations between inflammation markers, insulin sensitivity (expressed as the ratio of the M value to the mean plasma insulin concentrations measured during the Final 40 min of the clamp [M/
Moth wings are densely covered by wing scales that are assumed to specifically function to camouflage nocturnally active species during day time. Generally, moth wing scales are built according to the basic lepidopteran Bauplan, where the upper lamina consists of an array of parallel ridges and the lower lamina is a thin plane. The lower lamina hence acts as a thin film reflector having distinct rMoth wings are densely covered by wing scales that are assumed to specifically function to camouflage nocturnally active species during day time.

OBJECTIVES: To study evidence for construct validity, the aim was to describe the outcome from the recently developed Diabetes Questionnaire, assess the associations of that outcome with clinical variables and generic health-related quality of life, and study the sensitivity to differences between clinically relevant groups of glycaemic control in adults with type 1 and type 2 diabetes in a nation
Introduction: The extent to which pain is distributed across the body (spreading of pain) differs largely among patients with chronic pain conditions and widespread pain has been linked to poor quality of life and work disability. A longer duration of pain is expected to be associated with more widespread pain, but studies are surprisingly scarce. Whether spreading of pain is associated with clini
The presence of graphite particles in gray cast iron commonly implies a good machinability, especially if compared to common steels. However, increasing industrial demands have resulted in a new interest for high-speed machining of these materials with higher performing tool materials than the traditionally used.
