A measurement of jet substructure observables is presented using data collected in 2016 by the ATLAS experiment at the LHC with proton-proton collisions at s = 13 TeV. Large-radius jets groomed with the trimming and soft-drop algorithms are studied. Dedicated event selections are used to study jets produced by light quarks or gluons, and hadronically decaying top quarks and W bosons. The observabl

Background: The aim of this study is to evaluate the impact of lymphovascular space invasion (LVSI) on the risk of lymph node metastases and survival in endometrioid endometrial adenocarcinoma. Material and methods: As regard the study design, this is a cohort study based on prospectively recorded data. Patients with endometrioid endometrial adenocarcinoma registered in the Swedish Quality Registr

For the study of prognostic factors, the medical researchers have access to a number of advanced statistical techniques available in standard program packages. A tradition has developed where survival or time to relapse is analysed on the basis of statistical materials with few patients but a large number of possible explanatory variables. In statistical "fishing expeditions" the p-values are used

This report by The Swedish Council on Technology Assessment in Health Care (SBU) reviews, classifies, and grades the scientific literature on cancer chemotherapy in some major tumour types, describes the practice of chemotherapy in Sweden, compares practice with scientific knowledge, and analyses the costs and cost-effectiveness of chemotherapy. The report is intended primarily for decision-makers

An open, noncomparative, Nordic multicenter study was carried out during 1991-1992 to evaluate the 5-HT3 receptor antagonist tropisetron (Navoban) as an antiemetic agent for various types of cancer chemotherapy. A total of 630 patients were recruited from 15 centers in Sweden, Denmark, and Finland. Gynecological cancers (60%), breast cancer (15%), and lung cancer (10%) were the main diagnoses. Pri

Ultrashort laser pulses have become an indispensable tool in physics, chemistry and engineering. Their numerous applications call for accurate and robust characterization techniques able to reliably retrieve the pulse's intensity profile. Different methods, such as FROG [1] or SPIDER [2] and their variants, have been developed in past decades and are now common in many laboratories. More novel app

Attosecond pulses in the extreme ultraviolet (XUV) spectral range are today routinely generated via high-order harmonic generation (HHG), when intense ultrashort laser pulses are focused into a gaseous generation medium. The effect is most easily understood in a semi-classical picture [1]. An electron can tunnel ionize from the distorted atomic potential, pick up kinetic energy in the laser field,

Introduction: For fast and effective antibiotic therapy of serious infections like sepsis, it is crucial with rapid information about antibiotic susceptibility, especially in a time when the number of infections caused by multi resistant bacteria has escalated in the world. Methods: Here, we have used a semi-quantitative MALDI-TOF-MS based method for antibiotic resistance detection, MBT-ASTRA™, wh

Purpose: Comorbidity in stroke is common, but comprehensive reports are sparse. We describe prevalence of comorbidity and the prognostic impact on mortality and functional outcome in a large national ischemic stroke cohort. Methods: We used outcome data from a long-term follow-up survey conducted in 2016 by the Swedish Stroke Register (Riksstroke). Those included in the study were 11 775 pre-strok

The purpose of this study is to present a framework to assess how project individuals deal with accountability in project selection. The framework is designed based on project selection and accountability literature and empirical data. Empirical data was collected through semi-structured interviews with project individuals working at organizations operating in information technology and working wi

Human immunodeficiency virus type 1-based lentivirus vectors containing the green fluorescent protein (GFP) gene were used to transduce murine Lin(-) c-kit(+) Sca1(+) primitive hematopoietic progenitor cells. Following transduction, the cells were plated into hematopoietic progenitor cell assays in methylcellulose and the colonies were scored for GFP positivity. After incubation for 20 h, lentivir

Industrial relations in Sweden are part of the Nordic legal tradition. This is characterised by labour law which is largely semi-discretionary law and collective agreements are the most important instrument for regulation of the labour market; these agreements offer a high degree of coverage. Trade unions are well organised and play a central role in the labour law system. During the past 25 years

Twenty-four chronic alcoholics admitted to hospital for detoxification after a drinking spree were examined by upper gastrointestinal endoscopy. Biopsy specimens were taken from corpus/fundus, antrum and duodenum for tissue histology (eosin stain). From the duodenum villus index and ultrastructure (scanning electron microscopy, SEM) were also performed. As a control group 12 subjectively healthy n

Phosphatidylinositol (PI), mainly stearoyl-arachidonyl PI, occurs as a minor phospholipid constituent in both chyle and plasma lipoproteins. The kinetics and the pathway by which plasma and chyle PI is metabolized have not been investigated. The role of lipoprotein PI in the supply of arachidonic acid (20:4) and inositol lipid components to different tissues is thus unknown. In this study we exami
