We compare 17 exchange-traded funds (ETF) traded on the New York Stock Exchange benchmarking European indices and Asian indices. Over the five-year period of 2006-04-05 to 2011-04-05, with the additional focus being on the financial crisis stretching from 2007-08-01 to 2009-02-27, we evaluate the ETFs performance and ability in tracking their benchmark indices through extreme volatile periods. Our
Can climate signals help investors make sharper moves in volatile commodity markets? This study explores how weather-related risk, specifically the El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO), can be used to improve portfolio performance. We incorporate the Oceanic Niño Index (ONI) into a Random Forest forecasting model to capture the complex, non-linear effects of climate anomalies on commodity returns -
This report aims at providing information on principles that should be considered during planning, establishment and maintenance of work zones, and inspection works. An extensive literature review has been done within the project and some of the results, e.g. of previous CEDR-projects, are included in IRIS. However, not all findings of recent studies are mentioned, as the goal was to keep the repo
Delegating tasks from a human to a robot needs an efficient and easy-to-use communication pipeline between them - especially when inexperienced users are involved. This work presents a robotic system that is able to bridge this communication gap by exploiting 3D sensing for gesture recognition and real-time object segmentation. We visually extract an unknown object indicated by a human through a p
PURPOSE: There is a dearth of research on coping strategies of patients with malignant lymphoma. The aim of this article is to explore how these patients cope with cancer in everyday life.METHOD: Semi-structured interviews were conducted with nine patients in Sweden. A thematic analysis was made, inspired by Antonovsky’s theory of sense of coherence. The SRQR checklist was used.

Background/Aims: Peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) is becoming clinical routine for management of neuroendocrine tumours. The number of PRRT cycles is correlated with treatment effect but theoretically limited by off-target radiation damage to kidneys and bone marrow. New imaging biomarkers for assessment of PRRT tissue damage would enable evaluation of novel renal and bone marrow prote

Background: We studied whether nitrous oxide (N(2)O) added to a fluid allows the infused volume to be quantified by measuring N(2)O in the expired air during normal breathing. If so, N(2)O might serve as a tracer of fluid absorption during endoscopic surgery.Methods: Twelve male volunteers received continuous and intermittent i.v. infusions (5-45 min) of fluid containing 40 ml litre(-1) of N(2)O.
This study examines Qatar’s hosting of the 2022 FIFA World Cup through the lens of role theory, with a particular focus on role perception, role expectations and role performance. By analysing Qatar's National Vision 2030 and development strategies, as well as international reports and resolutions, the study explores the interplay between Qatar's self-image as a host nation, external expec
A diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) is a common and serious complication of diabetes. It is today the leading cause of amputations and is associated with both increased morbidity and mortality. Individuals with DFU have 2.5 times higher mortality rates compared to patients with diabetes but without DFU, a risk that persists even after ulcer healing. Macrovascular complications, such as a higher burden of
This masters thesis deals with smoke spread via ventilation systems. One aim of the thesis is to investigate and explain the differences in efforts to prevent smoke spread via ventilation systems in different countries. A second aim of this thesis is to investigate how frequently occurring smoke spread via ventilation systems in Swedish buildings are. A third aim is to investigate how uncertaintie
Although renovation costs can lead to rent increases in energy retrofitting, it is often assumed that reductions in energy costs will counterbalance the rent increase. In Swedish multifamily housing, energy costs for heating are however generally included as a fixed component in the monthly rent, meaning that the rent increase after energy retrofitting corresponds to the net change in rent level a
