The discussion about weather one should pay expensive management fees to let professionals manage your money or if one should simply invest in an almost costless index fund has been going on for decades. This study’s objective is to investigate if the most popular actively managed mutual funds in Sweden can outperform the most popular Swedish passive broad market index fund. The study analyzes 62
AIM: To study the association between within-person changes in patient-reported outcomes (PROMs) and wish for joint surgery during participation in a digital first-line intervention comprising exercise and education for knee/hip osteoarthritis (OA).METHODS: Retrospective observational registry study. Participants enrolled between 01/06/2018 and 30/10/2021 with follow-up data at 3 months (n=13,961)
BackgroundDiabetes mellitus (DM) poses a significant risk for the development of active tuberculosis (TB) and complicates its treatment. However, there is inconclusive evidence on whether the TB-DM co-morbidity is associated with a higher risk of developing multi-drug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB). The aim of this meta-analysis was to summarize available evidence on the association of DM and MDR
Bakgrund: Aktivitetsbalans syftar till individers upplevelser av variation av aktiviteter i vardagen. Avsaknad av variation på aktiviteter kan leda till minskade upplevelser av aktivitetsbalans. Betalt arbete kan leda till att struktur, rutin och identitet formas i vardagen, samt kan motsatt leda till stressrelaterad psykisk ohälsa utifrån negativa faktorer på arbetsplatsen. Syfte: Studiens syfte
Backgrund: Academics in retirement age are the longest working professional group in Sweden. The need for a prolonged working life among other professions has been arising due to the aging population and its various implications for society. Occupational balance is associated with subjective health and wellbeing as well as work ability thus potentially, having an impact on an individuals’ decision
Development of integrated, continuous biomanufacturing (ICB) processes brings along the challenge of streamlining the acquisition of data that can be used for process monitoring, product quality testing and process control. Manually performing sample acquisition, preparation, and analysis during process and product development on ICB platforms requires time and labor that diverts attention from th
I uppsatsen presenteras en undersökning av de svenska grundlagsbestämmelserna avseende handlingsoffentlighet och frivilligt utgivningsbevis i förhållande till Europeiska unionens (EU) dataskyddsförordning (2016/679). Inom ramen för svensk rätt har var och en rätten att ta del av en allmän handling med tillhörande personuppgifter. Vidare kan hemsidor beviljas ett frivilligt utgivningsbevis innebäraThe essay presents an examination of the Swedish constitutional provisions regarding public documents and voluntary release certificates in relation to the European Union's (EU) data protection regulation (2016/679). Within the framework of Swedish law, everyone has the right to access a public document with associated personal data. Furthermore, websites can be granted a voluntary publication
2000-talet har introducerat nya sätt att bedriva e-handel, med plattformsekonomin som suddar ut gränserna för vilken person som tillhandahåller tjänster från ett mervärdesskatteperspektiv. Bitcoin har blivit pengar för internetåldern. Naturrättsteorin visar överlägsenheten av beslut från den opersonliga marknaden, samtidigt som man inser vikten av lagen och moralen. I både ”public choice”- teorinThe 21st century has introduced new ways of carrying on e-commerce, with the platform economy blurring the lines on the person supplying services for VAT purposes, and with Bitcoin becoming honest money for the internet age. Natural rights theory demonstrates the superiority of decisions by the impersonal market, while recognizing the importance of the law and morality. In both the theory of publ
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have been studied for their potential benefits in treating acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and have reported mild effects when trialed within human clinical trials. MSCs have been investigated in preclinical models with efficacy when administered at the time of lung injury. Human integrin α10β1-selected adipose tissue-derived MSCs (integrin α10β1-MSCs) have
Vetenskaplig produktion bestäms i ett samspel mellan resurser och individer och påverkas av den historiska framväxten av universitets- och högskoleväsendet. Statens roll är i många länder – så även i Sverige – central eftersom det är den som grundar lärosäten och definierar deras fri- och rättigheter men även finansierar forskning och utbildning. Det spelar också roll vilka individer, högskolor oc
Författare: Monika Johansson Titel: En exkluderande universalitet - En diskursanalys av mål och visioner om jämställdhet i Agenda 2030 Kandidatuppsats: SOCK07, 15 hp. Handledare. Mikael Linnell Sociologiska institutionen, vårterminen 2022 Problem/bakgrund: Agenda 2030 är en handlingsplan för hållbar utveckling som genom sin konceptuella utformning har lyft in jämställdhetsfrågan i en global håll
Samtliga elnätsbolag, inklusive Kraftringen, kommer till 2027 att behöva införa en ny priskomponent i nätavgiften, en tidsdifferentierad effektavgift som ska skapa incitament till hushåll att sprida ut sin förbrukning över dygnet. Under hösten och vintern 2022 steg elpriserna mycket och variationen i elpriset under dygnet var hög. Många hushåll gjorde därmed förändringar i sin elförbrukning för atAll grid companies, including Kraftringen, must until 2027 implement a new price component in the grid fee, a time differentiated effect fee which aims to create incentives for households to even out their electricity consumption over the day. During the fall and winter of 2022, the electricity prices rose a lot and the variability in the electricity price throughout the day was high. Many househo
Strangeness production in small systems such as proton-proton collisions is here investigated through the use of three-particle correlations in the momentum-space coordinates η and ϕ. This method is used in order to investigate possible correlation between conservation of both strangeness and baryon number, such that the particles chosen are Λ¯pK+ and the respective charge conjugates, where Λ is a
The thesis explores an already developed symmetry adapted representation of a two-body interaction with the main goal of extending the method to also include three-body interactions. The method considers a space of shifted one dimensional Gaussian particle densities which are used, together with their corresponding Hartree potentials, to define the respective collective subspaces in which the inte
This paper aims to investigate the effect of natural disasters, with regard to frequency of events, on GDP per capita growth. A panel data regression covering 121 countries between 1960 and 2015 in non-overlapping five-year periods is used. The regression contemplates the size of the agricultural sector in each country and the severity of the disasters. The results show a positive effect on econom
This thesis examines how the Riksbank’s monetary policy has affected the Swedish CPI inflation rate from 2000 to 2019. This thesis aims to determine if monetary policy is effective at controlling inflation. There is an emphasis on exploring the differences between conventional and unconventional monetary policy. A multiple linear regression model is used to test the relationship between inflation
This paper examines the relationship between ultra-low interest rates and the amount of zombie firms using panel data for Sweden, Norway, Denmark and Finland over the period 2007-2020 in a multivariable regression model. Specifically, the questions addressed are: is there a relationship between the interest rate and the amount of zombie firms? Could it be concluded that the amount of zombie firms
