This study aims to examine the relationship between the gender of the CEO and target firm risk in mergers and acquisitions (M&A) in Sweden. Previous research has shown that there may be differences in risk attitudes and behavior between men and women, which could affect their decision-making processes in M&A transactions. However, little research has focused on the relationship between CEO

Today, climate change is one of the largest concerns about the future, which leads to investments in green companies becoming more relevant. This contributes to companies using greenwashing to attract investors. Beyond Meat is a company that produces meat substitutes and claims that their products have a lower carbon footprint than traditional meat. This paper compares the projected cashflow val

Fördelarna med diversifiering har bevisats om och om igen inom portföljvalsteori men hur en portfölj ska konstrueras är inte helt tydligt. I en studie av DeMiguel et.al (2009) kom författarna fram till slutsatsen att en simpel naiv diversifieringsstrategi fungerar mycket bättre än Markowitz mer avancerade mean-variance modell från 1952. Den här studien avser att svara på frågan, Kan modern portföl

Dense urban morphologies further amplify extreme climate events due to the urban heat island phenomenon, rendering cities more vulnerable to extreme climate events. Here we develop a modelling framework using multi-scale climate and energy system models to assess the compound impact of future climate variations and urban densification on renewable energy integration for 18 European cities. We obse

Alveolar epithelial cells (AEC) have been implicated in pathological remodelling. We examined the capacity of AEC to produce extracellular matrix (ECM) and thereby directly contribute towards remodelling in chronic lung diseases. Cryopreserved type 2 AEC (AEC2) from healthy lungs and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) afflicted lungs were cultured in decellularized healthy human lung sli

Aims: Estimation of prognosis in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) has been influenced by that various risk stratification models use different numbers of prognostic parameters, as well as the lack of a comprehensive and time-saving risk assessment calculator. We therefore evaluated the various European Society of Cardiology (ESC)-/European Respiratory Society (ERS)-based three-and four-strata

Bakgrund: Personer som vistas inom psykiatrisk slutenvård upplever ofta svårigheter att hantera sensoriska intryck, vilket kan leda till aktivitetsbegränsningar. Slutenvården präglas av metoder såsom tvångsvård och isolering, vilket medför ytterligare begränsningar kring delaktighet i aktivitet. Forskning visar dock att tvångsvården minskar vid användning av sensoriska interventioner och pati

Objectives The aim of this study was to assess the level and factors associated with caregivers’ disclosure of perinatally HIV-infected (PHIV+) children’s seropositive status.Design We conducted a cross-sectional study in five public health facilities providing HIV treatment and care in Dire Dawa and Harar, Eastern Ethiopia. The data were collected from 310 caregivers through face-to-face intervie

Health and demographic surveillance systems (HDSSs) provide a foundation for characterizing and defining priorities and strategies for improving population health. The Child Health and Mortality Prevention Surveillance (CHAMPS) project aims to inform policy to prevent child deaths through generating causes of death from surveillance data combined with innovative diagnostic and laboratory methods.

Svenska hästar rankas som bland de bästa i världen och hästnäringen omsätter mer än 72 miljarder kronor per år. Beroende på i vilken roll säljaren agerar så blir olika lagar tillämpliga vid köp av häst. Är säljaren en näringsidkare hamnar man i konsumentköplagen, medan om den är en privatperson så blir köplagen tillämplig. Beroende på vilken lag man hamnar i kan utfallet vid en felbedömning se oliSwedish horses are amongst the top in the world and the revenue of the industry is over 72 billion Swedish crowns per year. Depending on the role the seller is acting as, different laws will apply. If the seller is an entrepreneur, Consumer Sales Act will apply, but if it’s a private person The Sale of Goods act will be applicable. Depending on which law you apply, the outcome could be different.

Som en del av EU:s gröna omställning har det vid årsskiftet till 2023 införts inledande krav i en energitaxonomi på företag som tillhandahåller finansiella tjänster, däribland fastighetsföretag. Företagens investeringar ska nu klassas som hållbara eller icke hållbara. Ytterligare en del i EU:s gröna omställning är att unionens befintliga bestånd får nya energieffektiviseringskrav. Som en lösning pAs a part of the Green Deal within the EU, as of the start of 2023, new demands have been put in place in an energy taxonomy on companies providing financial services, a category in which real estate companies are included. The investments of these companies are now to be classified as sustainable or not sustainable. Another part of the shift towards sustainability within the EU is that the existi

This paper examines the relationship between Swedish football supporters and regulating policies from the police authorities. The main aim is to understand the supporters point of view regarding their role within the swedish football’s structure, and determine what makes them feel threatened by policies, as well as to shed light to the consequences from policy-application. This is done from interv

Abstract Tunnels are one of the most complex and delicate elements of the road system. Assessing fire behaviour and fire severity remains the biggest source of uncertainty in risk assessment and is an essential step in the tunnel design process. This study focuses on investigating the reliability and accuracy of different available tools to describe tunnel fire dynamics, with a focus on assessing

The ability to hear is essential for receiving auditory signals, which serve as warnings and alerts in many situations, including fire evacuation. However, people with hearing impairments may miss out such signals and can be exposed to dangerous situations. This is particularly relevant in scenarios where audible alarms are the primary form of alert, such as in fire scenarios, natural hazards, or

Denna uppsats undersöker hur språkmodeller används och upplevs av lärare och ledning inom högre utbildning. Genom en kvalitativ intervjustudie har empiri samlats in, därefter analyseras den för att ge svar på frågor om användning och acceptans av teknologin inom högre utbildning. Resultaten visar att det finns en tydlig positiv bild från respondenterna på institutionen för informatik, medan respon

Algae’s interest in the past decade has grown rapidly, with several actors showing this interest within their plans. Drawing on critical resource geography insights on the social production of resources and a conceptual framework built on top of it, this thesis has as its aim the comprehension of to what extent algae’s transformation into a resource is occurring within Europe and Denmark. This res
