Forecasting foreign exchange rates and financial asset prices in general is a hard task. The best model has often been shown to be a simple random walk, which implies that the price movements are unpredictable. In this thesis models that have been somewhat successful in the past are developed and investigated for different forecasting horizons. The aim is to find models that significantly dominate
A core principle of the Safe System approach is shared responsibility among stakeholders and road users. Traditionally, public actors have shouldered most of the stakeholder responsibility, and traffic safety has mainly been viewed as a duty of governments [1,2]. However, the United Nations and the World Health Organisation call on all stakeholders, both public and private, to take on the responsi
BACKGROUND: The risk of infection-related death is high in patients undergoing dialysis. This study aimed to identify the modifiable risk factors for PD-related infections in patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis.METHODS: This was a population-based retrospective cohort study conducted in Skåne, South Sweden, which included all patients receiving peritoneal dialysis (PD) between 2011 and 2020.

Reuse and recycling were important, but often forgotten, parts of managing the preindustrial fashionable wardrobe. Through researching diaries and extant garments from Swedish collections, the sources reveal everyday textile practices of costly textiles, mending, turning, altering, using old fabric or garments for new, change of parts or color, and reuse of textile material for new fabrics.

Monoclinic β-Ga2O3 films grown on c-plane sapphire have been shown to exhibit six (2¯01)-oriented domains, which are equally spaced by rotation around the surface normal and equally sized by volume that render the film optical response effectively uniaxial. We derive and discuss an optical model suitable for ellipsometry data analysis of such films. We model mid- and far-infrared ellipsometry data

Phase diagrams are useful tools to study the phase equilibria of nanowire materials systems because the growth of nanowires is accompanied by phase formation and phase transition. We have modeled the phase equilibria of the As-Au-Ga ternary system by means of the CALPHAD method. This method is a well-established semi-empirical technique for thermodynamic modeling in which Gibbs energy functions wi
28 september 2016 Seven Year Review of the Pufendorf Institute for Advanced Studies at Lund University Alan Irwin, Kate Soper och Richard Taylor blev tillfrågade att utvärdera institutet och förutom att de fick tillgång till allt nödvändigt material kom de också på besök en vecka i april. Detta mynnade ut i detta dokument. Vi tackar våra tre utvärderare för deras hårda arbete men skulle också vilj

Omvärderingsregeln, som är en mervärdesskatterättslig regel, infördes i svensk rätt 2008 för att kunna motverka skatteundandragande och skatteflykt vid tillhandahållanden mot felaktig ersättning mellan personer som är förbundna med varandra. Den situation som identifierats som vanligast är att tillhandahållanden sker mot en för låg ersättning när tillhandahållaren har full avdragsrätt för mervärdeThe reevaluation rule, which is a VAT-related rule, was introduced into Swedish law in 2008 to counteract tax evasion and tax avoidance in transactions when incorrect compensation between connected persons are made. The situation identified as most common is that transactions occur for too low compensation when the provider has full deduction rights for VAT and the purchaser wholly or partially la
A set of 15 analog chest images was digitized with a high performance scanner and manipulated in terms of noise and resolution to yield three sets of images; the original plus two with different noise and resolution properties. These sets were evaluated with Visual Grading Analysis (VGA) where the observer rates the visibility of certain normal anatomical structures (as described by the European Q
Sweden’s elderly population is growing, propelled by a continuous decline in old-age mortality, while coupled with a persistent replacement level fertility. This changing age structure increases the per worker cost of providing a given age-vector of per capita benefits, encompassing costs for pensions, health care, and all other type of old-age welfare services, which presents a looming challenge
Objective. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of moderate ischemic mitral regurgitation (IMR) in the contemporary CABG population. We also aimed to correlate the effective regurgitant orifice area (ERO) of any regurgitant mitral valve in patients with coronary artery disease with the semiquantitative integrated scale of IMR.

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
Popular Abstract in Swedish Cafeterian i Malmö Musikhögskola förvandlas två gånger om året till de passionerades mötesplats: När terminens ”Gambiastudenter” återvänder efter sina tre veckors fältarbete och skola med palmer som klassrumsväggar, möts de av veteranerna, de som redan varit där och som förstår att tolka entusiasmen. Det handlar inte om den vitalitet som alstrats av solen, färgerna och The present study seeks to examine attitudes to teaching and learning among jalis in the Gambia. Although this is the main focus, the horizon of which the study is carried out, analysed and discussed, is the development of music teacher education in Sweden during the last three decades, and of which I have been a participant. The intention of the study is to expand current views on music teaching
Popular Abstract in Swedish Färger innehåller mer tillförlitlig information än vad bara skillnader i ljusintensitet gör. Det är därför inte svårt att förstå varför de allra flesta landlevande ryggradsdjur har färgseende. Några upplever en färgfattigare värld än vi människor, men många ser fler färgnyanser. På kvällen däremot gör bristen på ljus det svårt att se färger. Trots detta finns det nattakMost terrestrial vertebrates have colour vision, some perceive a less colourful world and others actually discriminate a wider colour spectrum than humans do. Still, we can all make use of the valuable colour information, which is more rigid than just brightness. However, at night when the light is dim, the lack of photons makes colour vision difficult. Nevertheless, some hawkmoths and bees can se
From 1990 to 1997, 113 eligible patients with classical osteosarcoma received neo-adjuvant chemotherapy consisting of high-dose methotrexate, cisplatin and doxorubicin. Good histological responders continued to receive the same therapy postoperatively, while poor responders received salvage therapy with an etoposide/ifosfamide combination. With a median follow-up of 83 months, the projected metast
