A measurement of ∆Γs

Using a dataset corresponding to 9 fb−1 of integrated luminosity collected with the LHCb detector between 2011 and 2018 in proton-proton collisions, the decay-time distributions of the decay modes Bs 0→J/ψη′ and Bs 0→J/ψπ+π− are studied. The decay-width difference between the light and heavy mass eigenstates of the Bs 0 meson is measured to be ∆Γs = 0.087 ± 0.012 ± 0.009 ps−1, where the first unce

Adults’ articulations about children and their coping strategies during the COVID-19 pandemic - Antonovsky-inspired thematic analysis of Swedish junior and daily newspapers

The COVID-19 pandemic affected populations worldwide, generating prolific media coverage. From an Antonovsky perspective, this study explored how adults articulated children and their coping strategies during the pandemic in Swedish newspapers. Data was collected through a systematic search in the Retriever Database, March 2020 to June 2021. Following manual screening, 956 articles were included f

Periodic health evaluation in Para athletes: a position statement based on expert consensus

Para athletes present a broad range of sports-related injuries and illnesses, frequently encountering barriers when accessing healthcare services. The periodic health evaluation (PHE) is a valuable tool for continuously monitoring athletes’ health, screening for health conditions, assisting in the surveillance of health problems by establishing baseline information and identifying barriers to athl

Widespread White Matter Abnormalities in Concussed Athletes Detected by 7T Diffusion Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Sports-related concussions may cause white matter injuries and persistent post-concussive symptoms (PPCS). We hypothesized that athletes with PPCS would have neurocognitive impairments and white matter abnormalities that could be revealed by advanced neuroimaging using ultra-high field strength diffusion tensor (DTI) and diffusion kurtosis (DKI) imaging metrics and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biomarSports-related concussions may cause white matter injuries and persistent post-concussive symptoms (PPCS).

Voter Responses to Social Democratic Ideological Moderation after the Third Way

To what extent does moderation in ideological positioning by social democratic parties affect their short- and long-term electoral fortunes? Do existing social democratic electorates respond differently to moderation from the major parties of the Moderate Left on the economic as opposed to the cultural dimension? Previous research suggests that social democratic parties received an influx of centr

The use of starch microspheres and nanoparticles in pharmaceutical applications

Starch is generally regarded as safe for human consumption and has therefore attracted interest for several applications as medicinal products. This chapter focuses specifically on starch microspheres as carriers for drug delivery and as a medical device for, for example, vascular occlusion. Several methods for the preparation of starch microspheres by chemical or physical cross-linking are presen

“True Religion” and Hume’s Practical Atheism

The argument and discussion in this paper begins from the premise that Hume was an atheist who denied the religious or theist hypothesis. However, even if it is agreed that that Hume was an atheist this does not tell us where he stood on the question concerning the value of religion . Some atheists, such as Spinoza, have argued that society needs to maintain and preserve a form of “true religion ”

Accounting for English article interpretation by L2 speakers

Ionin, Ko and Wexler (2004a) have shown that L2 speakers of English whose L1’s lack articles (Russian and Korean) appear to fluctuate in their interpretation of the and a, allowing them to encode either definiteness or specificity. They argue that these are two options of an Article Choice Parameter offered by Universal Grammar, and that the Russian and Korean speakers fluctuate between them when

Narrativ medicin och medicinsk humaniora

Narrativ medicin och medicinsk humaniora är två närliggande akademiska fält som båda på olika sätt möjliggör interdisciplinära möten mellan medicin och humanvetenskaperna, och som är på framväxt sedan ett par decennier både internationellt och i Sverige. De två fälten har olika fokus, men också många överlappande intressen. I den här artikeln tecknas konturerna av medicinsk humaniora och narrativ

The interaction of Pseudomonas aeruginosa clinical isolates and human monoclonal antibodies

The invaders vs. the protectors: who wins the battle? Pseudomonas aeruginosa or in short PsA is a type of microorganism, also known as “bacteria” or “germ” or “bug”. It is very tiny and invisible to our naked eyes. This germ is found everywhere in places like soil, and water. PsA can get into the human body through wounds and other injuries and make people sick. To prevent humans from getting inf
