Auguste Comte var inflytelserik i stora delar av världen under 1800- talet och hans bidrag till sociologin är större än vad som i dag vanligen erkänns. Han var den förste som samtidigt tog samhället som studie- objekt och krävde systematiska empiriska studier av sociala fenomen. Influerad av dåtidens naturvetenskapliga syn på objektivitet, rationa- lism, orsak och verkan introducerade han idén om
A radiation curable coating composition based on thiol-ene chemistry is disclosed. The coating composition comprises at least one novel thiol having a mercapto functionality of at least two and at least one compound having an alkenyl functionality of at least two. Said novel thiol is a reaction product between at least one alkoxylated di, tri or polyhydric alcohol and at least one mercapto carboxy
A process for manufacture of a dendritic polyether comprising a core, derived from a compound having two or more hydroxyl groups, and at least one branching generation being built up from at least one hydroxyoxetane having one oxetane group and at least one hydroxyl group is disclosed. The process comprises ring opening addition to said core and ring opening polymerisation of said hydroxyoxetane.
In recent years, a dispute has arisen within detection and attribution science concerning the appropriate methodology for associating individual weather events with anthropogenic cli- mate change. In recent contributions, it has been highlighted that this conflict is seemingly misconstrued even by those participating in it and actually concerns a mixture of first and second order so-called inductiIn recent years, a dispute has arisen within detection and attribution science concerning the appropriate methodology for associating individual weather events with anthropogenic climate change.

In everyday life, we bind visual samples of the world into a coherent episodic memory via eye movements. Previous eye tracking research revealed that visual scrutiny, gaze transitions between event elements, and refixations during encoding predict successful memory formation. However, little is known about the neural mechanisms of these processes. Here, we combine EEG and eye tracking to investiga
BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to monitor blood perfusion in human upper eyelid skin flaps and examine how the perfusion is affected by the thickness of the flap.METHODS: Twenty upper eyelids were dissected as part of a blepharoplasty procedure in patients. The medial end of the blepharoplasty flap remained attached to mimic a flap design often used in reconstruction in the periocular area,
This paper extends the application of Bayesian inference to probability distributions defined in terms of its quantile function. We describe the method of *indirect likelihood* to be used in the Bayesian models with sampling distributions which lack an explicit cumulative distribution function. We provide examples and demonstrate the equivalence of the "quantile-based" (indirect) likelihood to the
The operating mechanisms of a planar patch antenna with a parasitic strip is analyzed in this paper. The patch antenna uses a thin parasitic strip to realize beam deflection, which facilitates switchable beam. The beam deflection effect of the parasitic strip can be explained by using characteristic mode analysis (CMA). Specifically, the parasitic strip introduces a new mode that interacts with a
While the clinical importance of CD8+ and CD3+ cells in colorectal cancer (CRC) is well established, the impact of other immune cell subsets is less well described. We sought to provide a detailed overview of the immune landscape of CRC in the largest study to date in terms of patient numbers and in situ analyzed immune cell types. Tissue microarrays from 536 patients were stained using multiplexe
The tumor microenvironment has been recognized as a complex network in which immune cells play an important role in cancer progression. We found significantly higher CD66b neutrophil expression in tumor tissue than in matched normal mucosa in the Malmö colon cancer (CC) cohort and poorer survival of stage I-III patients with high CD66b expression. Additionally, mice lacking CysLT1 R expression (cy
Syngas produced by gasification, which contains a high hydrogen content, has significant potential. The variation in the hydrogen content and dilution combustion are effective means to improve the steady combustion of syngas and reduce NOx emissions. OH planar laser-induced fluorescence technology (OH-PLIF) was applied in the present investigation of the turbulence of a premixed flame of syngas wi
Background and purpose — Hip dislocation in cerebral palsy (CP) is caused by altered muscle forces on the joint during typical hip positioning in adduction–flexion–inward rotation. Preventive surgery includes adductor–psoas lengthening (APL) or varus derotation osteotomy (VDRO) of the proximal femur. We assessed the changes in the hip abduction range after these operations. Patients and methods —
The current study aimed to estimate the effective doses and conversion coefficients (CCs) for typical barium swallow (BS), barium meal (BM) and barium enema (BE) protocols and to evaluate the impact of different examination parameters on the resulting CCs. Data were collected in surgical and therapy departments in St. Petersburg Urban Mariinsky Hospital. Computational models were developed using P
Modern safety science owes much of its current theories and practical approaches to the critical analysis of socio-technological disasters in the nuclear, chemical, maritime, and aviation industries at the end of the 1970 s and in the 1980 s. The medical field by contrast, was not challenged by a single high profile event, but by the release of a single report by the Institute of Medicine in 1999:
