Measurement of jet fragmentation in Pb+Pb and pp collisions at sNN =5.02 TeV with the ATLAS detector

This paper presents a measurement of jet fragmentation functions in 0.49 nb−1 of Pb+Pb collisions and 25 pb−1 of pp collisions at √sNN=5.02 TeV collected in 2015 with the ATLAS detector at the LHC. These measurements provide insight into the jet quenching process in the quark-gluon plasma created in the aftermath of ultrarelativistic collisions between two nuclei. The modifications to the jet frag

High seroprevalence of Babesia antibodies among Borrelia burgdorferi-infected humans in Sweden

In northern Europe, tick-borne diseases such as Lyme borreliosis (LB) and tick-borne encephalitis (TBE) are well known. The actual incidence of Babesia infections, however, has remained elusive. In this study, the prevalence of antibodies against two Babesia spp. was investigated in a cohort of patients that were seropositive for Borrelia (B.) burgdorferi sensu lato (s.l.). Data were compared to a

Background, experience of abuse, and mental health among adolescents in out-of-home care : a cross-sectional study of a Swedish high school national sample

Purpose: To compare experiences for adverse events, especially sexual abuse, and mental health in a group of high school students in out-of-home care with a representative sample of peers of the same age and similar educational attainment living with their parents. Materials and methods: A sample of 5839 students in the third year of Swedish high school, corresponding to a response rate of 59.7%,

Dödsbränder i bostäder 2012-2015 : En studie av fastighetsinformation

I Sverige inträffar runt 5500 bränder i bostäder årligen och i ca 80 av dessa bränder omkommer en eller flera personer. Det finns en långsamt nedåtgående trend för antalet omkomna i landet och världen, men nedgången är långsam och det finns inte heller några tydliga indikationer på vad denna nedgång kan beror på.Syftet med detta arbete är att studera olika byggnadstekniska faktorer i bostäder där The purpose of this work is to study fatal residential fires and see if they are correlated with any specific building characteristics. In this report, data on fatal fires are paired with data about the properties where the fires occurred. The analysis has shown that apartment buildings are overrepresented among properties with fatal fires compared to single-family units and agricultural units. It

Initial correlated states for the generalized Kadanoff–Baym Ansatz without adiabatic switching-on of interactions in closed systems

We reconsider the Generalized Kadanoff–Baym Ansatz (GKBA) approximation for non-equilibrium Green’s functions and extend it to self-consistently define an equilibrium correlated (within GKBA) state in closed systems. The advantage of the proposed prescription is to avoid the preparation of the initial equilibrium correlated state via adiabatic switching-on of the correlations. A simple model syste

Dynamics of multiple protoplanets embedded in gas and pebble discs and its dependence on Σ and ν parameters

Protoplanets of super-Earth size may get trapped in convergence zones for planetary migration and form gas giants there. These growing planets undergo accretion heating, which triggers a hot-Trail effect that can reverse migration directions, increase planetary eccentricities, and prevent resonant captures of migrating planets. In this work, we study populations of embryos that are accreting pebbl

Predictive value of minimal residual disease in philadelphia-chromosome-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia treated with imatinib in the European intergroup study of post-induction treatment of Philadelphia-chromosome-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia, based on immunoglobulin/T-cell receptor and BCR/ABL1 methodologies

The prognostic value of minimal residual disease (MRD) in Philadelphia-chromosome-positive (Ph+) childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) treated with tyrosine kinase inhibitors is not fully established. We detected MRD by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RQ-PCR) of rearranged immunoglobulin/T-cell receptor genes (IG/TR) and/or BCR/ABL1 fusion transcript to investigate its pre

Probing the Virtual Proteome to Identify Novel Disease Biomarkers

BACKGROUND: Proteomic approaches allow measurement of thousands of proteins in a single specimen, which can accelerate biomarker discovery. However, applying these technologies to massive biobanks is not currently feasible because of the practical barriers and costs of implementing such assays at scale. To overcome these challenges, we used a "virtual proteomic" approach, linking genetically predi

Coin production in the low countries : Fourteenth century to the present

The new dataset and web application 'Coin production in the Low Countries: fourteenth century to the present' provides scholars with user-friendly access to mintmasters' accounts going back to the Middle Ages. They give insight into the production of legal tender (within the Low Countries and occasionally elsewhere as well), and provide access to such variables as regional production figures and c

Ett pilgrimsbesök i Vadstena år 1432

During a fictional visit to Vadstena in the year 1432 we learn about indulgences, see the future insurgent Engelbrekt, hear the adventures of some shipwrecked Venetians, and listen to a sermon at the Birgittine abbey church.

Mesopolobus incultus auct. (Hymenoptera : Pteromalidae) contains two distinct species: Mesopolobus incultus (Walker, 1834) and Mesopolobus amyntor (Walker, 1845)

Mesopolobus incultus auct. is hypothesized to consist of two different species, M. amyntor (Walker) and M incultus (Walker). This hypothesis is supported by molecular (cytochrome c oxidase subunit I, i.e. COI), morphological and biological data. Mesopolobus amyntor is a primary parasitoid of Mecinus pascuorum (Gyllenhal) and M. labilis (Herbst) (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) on Plantago lanceolata. M

A population-based study of familial central nervous system hemangioblastomas

We used the nationwide Swedish Family-Cancer Database to analyze the risk for central nervous system hemangioblastoma (HB) in offspring (0-61 years) of parents with cancer. Eighty-three offspring were identified, and the age at onset showed a bimodal distribution. The early-onset component peaked at 25-29 years, was associated with von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) disease and presented with HBs, renal cell

Phosphate permeases of Saccharomyces cerevisiae

The PHO84 and PHO89 genes of Saccharomyces cerevisiae encode two high- affinity phosphate cotransporters of the plasma membrane. Hydropathy analysis suggests a secondary structure arrangements of the proteins in 12 transmembrane domains. The derepressible Pho84 and Pho89 transporters appear to have characteristic similarities with the phosphate transporters of Neurospora crassa. The Pho84 protein

Fully unconstrained noncollinear magnetism within the projector augmented-wave method

Spin-polarized calculations in solids have generally been confined to a global quantization axis to simplify both the theoretical model and its implementation in self-consistent codes. This approximation is justified as many materials exhibit a collinear magnetic order. However, in recent years much interest has been directed towards noncollinear magnetism in which the magnetization density is a c

Fully Compressive Tides in Galaxy Mergers

The disruptive effect of galactic tides is a textbook example of gravitational dynamics. However, depending on the shape of the potential, tides can also become fully compressive. When that is the case, they might trigger or strengthen the formation of galactic substructures (star clusters and tidal dwarf galaxies), instead of destroying them. We perform N-body simulations of interacting galaxies

Post-traumatic osteoarthrosis after tibial shaft fractures A 30-year-follow-up

In 1990, a retrospective case control study was performed based on all patients with tibial shaft fractures (n = 767) treated at the Department of Orthopaedics in Malmö 1949-1963. At the time of the study 231 of the patients were still living in Malmö . All radiographic examinations of this latter group from the time of the fracture to 1990 were studied and the occurrence of osteoarthrosis (OA) of

Ultrasensitive Immunoprofiling of Plasma Extracellular Vesicles Identifies Syndecan-1 as a Potential Tool for Minimally Invasive Diagnosis of Glioma

Purpose: Liquid biopsy has great potential to improve the management of brain tumor patients at high risk of surgery-associated complications. Here, the aim was to explore plasma extracellular vesicle (plEV) immunoprofiling as a tool for noninvasive diagnosis of glioma.Experimental Design: PlEV isolation and analysis were optimized using advanced mass spectrometry, nanoparticle tracking analysis,
