Our aim was to explore possible relationships between serum levels of biomarkers in patients with hand-arm vibration injury in relation to the severity of the vascular, i.e., Raynaud’s phenomenon (RP), and neurosensory manifestations, the current exposure level, and the duration of exposure. This study was of case series design and involved 92 patients diagnosed with hand-arm vibration injury. Jon

Background: Accurate characterization of newly diagnosed a solid adnexal lesion is a key step in defining the most appropriate therapeutic approach. Despite guidance from the International Ovarian Tumor Analyzes Panel, the evaluation of these lesions can be challenging. Recent studies have demonstrated how machine learning techniques can be applied to clinical data to solve this diagnostic problem

This study investigated whether the brain utilizes morphologically induced tones for semantic processing during online speech perception. An auditory comprehension task was conducted while measuring event-related potentials (ERPs). The study tested whether a discrepancy between contextual expectations and the tonal realizations of the target word would yield an N400 effect, indicative of semantic

Field studies reveal that the woody surfaces of upland trees are a substantial global sink for methane, a potent greenhouse gas. The findings help to fill a hole in the global methane budget and should improve the accuracy of climate models.

BACKGROUND: Programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression on tumor cells is associated with poor prognosis in several malignancies, while partly contradictory and inconclusive results have been presented for colorectal cancer (CRC). This study aimed to evaluate PD-L1 as a prognostic biomarker in CRC by comparing three different antibody clones.METHODS: Patients surgically treated for CRC between Ja

Bakgrund För noggrant utvalda patienter med avancerad hjärtsvikt är hjärttransplantation den optimala behandlingen för att förbättra överlevnad och livskvalitet. Men trots detta är sjukligheten fortfarande betydande inom gruppen. Med avhandlingen ville vi undersöka utfallet bland hjärttransplanterade patienter i Sverige med fokus på dödlighet, samsjuklighet och fysiska begränsningar som är relater

Affärsrättsligt Centrum vid Lunds universitet (ACLU) bedriver forsknings- och seminarieverksamhet på centrala förmögenhetsrättsliga områden. En viktig del av den verksamhet som bedrivs inom ACLU är att regelbundet publicera böcker som består av originalbidrag från forskare och praktiker som har anknytning till ACLU. Målsättningen för ACLU:s publikationer är att de ska belysa aktuella och praktiskt

Organizations advocating for the rights of LGBTQIA+ people are found all around the globe. These organizations champion the rights of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, intersex, asexual, aromantic, and agender individuals, with the plus-sign acknowledging those who are part of the community without fitting neatly into any of these specific categories. This entry details the early history

Background: Parkinson's disease (PD) is characterized by alpha-synuclein (α-Syn) pathology, neurodegeneration and neuroinflammation. Human leukocyte antigen (HLA) variants associated with PD and α-Syn specific CD4+ T lymphocytes in PD patients highlight the importance of antigen presentation in PD etiology. The class II transactivator (CIITA) regulates major histocompatibility complex class II (MH

Judging from the steep rise in number of publications in organizational sociology and management studies about “hybrid organizations”, it would seem as if this is either something new or something that has grown in importance in the past decades. In this article, we make a thorough attempt to provide the concept a proper anchoring in sociology and organization studies. We demonstrate that hybridit

Artikeln behandlar utsignalåterkoppling av system där funktionen som avbildar tillstånden på mätsignarlerna har en mängdvärd invers.Vi visar att om mängden har begränsad kardinalitet, så går det att komprimera historiken till en ändlig vektor som beräknas rekursivt.Resultatet exemplifieras på diskrettidsintegratorn där mätsignalen är absolutbeloppet av tillståndet och får fram en förvånandsvärt enThis article considers output-feedback control of systems where the function mapping states to measurements has a set-valued inverse. We show that if the set has a bounded number of elements, then minimax dual control of such systems admits finite-dimensional information states. We specialize our results to a discrete-time integrator with magnitude measurements and derive a surprisingly simple sub

This chapter explores the Danish case of a years-long campaign to phase out the “production” of the fast-growing industrial chicken breed, Ross 308. Core differences between welfarism, new welfarism, and abolitionist positions of rights and liberation are outlined - and it is investigated how activists navigate the tensions between these approaches in practice. The case makes visible a tangled ter

Artikeln behandlar fundamentala prestandabegränsningar för strikt kausala tillståndsskattningar hos linjära system som beskrivs av ett ändligt antal modeller. Systemet antas beskrivas korrekt av en av modellerna, men det är okänt vilken av kandidaterna som är korrekt. Vi ger metoder för att beräkna övre- och undre begränsningar på minimax prestanda, defininerad som förstärkningen från störningar tThis article concerns the performance limits of strictly causal state estimation for linear systems with fixed, but uncertain, parameters belonging to a finite set. In particular, we provide upper and lower bounds on the smallest achievable gain from disturbances to the point-wise estimation error. The bounds rely on forward and backward Riccati recursions-one forward recursion for each feasible m
