Background: Early detection of treatment response is important for the management of patients with malignant brain tumors such as glioblastoma to assure good quality of life in relation to therapeutic efficacy. Aim: To investigate whether parametric response mapping (PRM) with diffusion MRI may provide prognostic information at an early stage of standard therapy for glioblastoma. Materials and met

Taking its cue from questions raised in ecocritical theory, this article studies some of the central themes in the poetry of Swedish ALMA laureate Barbro Lindgren: the non-hierarchical attitude towards all that lives and exists; the cycle of life and death that is a fundamental condition of existence for human and non-human animals as well as for trees and plants; and the exploration of scales tha

Hösten 2024 är det 50 år sedan Carl-Göran Heidegren påbörjade sin akademiska bana i Lund. Med tanke på detta är det tur att en grupp sociologer med bakgrund på Sociologen i Lund redan år 2021 kom på tanken att uppmärksamma Carl-Göran och hans verk, med anledning av hans då förestående emeritering. I valet mellan att göra en festskrift eller en ’vanlig’ antologi tillsammans bestämde vi oss för att

Det som är störande för cyklister som passerar ett vägarbete är ojämnheter, omledning, bristfällig information från väghållaren, skyltning och oavskilda cykelvägar. Kvaliteten på omledningar och avstängningar är avgörande för att cyklister ska använda dem. Det behövs bättre omläggningar som inte utsätter cyklister för onödigt stora omvägar eller drastiskt minskade möjligheter att cykla förbi vägar

Recension

Diabetes is a highly heterogeneous condition; yet, it is diagnosed by measuring a single blood-borne metabolite, glucose, irrespective of aetiology. Although pragmatically helpful, disease classification can become complex and limit advances in research and medical care. Here, we describe diabetes heterogeneity, highlighting recent approaches that could facilitate management by integrating three d

This paper examines how the significant events and team member trust in new ventures affect exit from the team. We consider team member exit as an outcome that affects both individuals, the team, and the performance of the new venture. We develop our arguments based on event system theory, which is specifically beneficial to understand how new ventures develop. We test our arguments using a unique

This chapter deals with children's participation in research concerning children's experience of exposure to violence, abuse or neglect and how ethical aspects of such research are regulated in Sweden. The Act (2003:460) on ethical review of research involving humans (etikprövningslagen, EPL), introduced in 2003, states that certain types of research require permission to be carried out. Since the

The near-drip-line nucleus [Formula Presented] Pr was populated with the reaction [Formula Presented] Mo[Formula Presented] Ca,[Formula Presented] at a beam energy of 175 [Formula Presented] V. Particle-[Formula Presented]-[Formula Presented] coincidences were collected, and the total energy plane gating technique was used to enhance events associated with the [Formula Presented] exit channel. Thi

High angular momentum states in 86Zr were populated through the 58Ni(32S,4p) reaction at 135 MeV using the 88-In. Cyclotron at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. Recoiling 86Zr nuclei were stopped in a thick Ta backing. Prompt multi-γ coincidences with evaporated charged particles were detected using the full array of GAMMASPHERE and the MICROBALL. Mean lifetimes of 36 levels in 86Zr were meas

Excited states in [Formula Presented]Sb have been identified for the first time in a series of [Formula Presented]-spectroscopy experiments using both thin and backed targets, including neutron-fold and recoil-mass measurements to provide unambiguous channel identification. The three decoupled intruder bands observed in [Formula Presented]Sb are based upon configurations involving 2p-2h excitation

Lifetimes have been measured in a superdeformed rotational band recently identified in the N = Z nucleus 36Ar. A large low-spin quadrupole deformation (β2=0.46±0.03) is confirmed and a decrease in the collectivity is observed as the high-spin band termination at Iπ=16+ is approached. Detailed comparisons of the experimental B(E2) values with the results of cranked Nilsson-Strutinsky and large-scal

Skildringar av Lunds domkyrka i litterära texter från 1593 (Finnsägnen) till och med Elsa Graves berättelse "Sphinxer" från 1949 och Sven Christer Swahns "Detta Lund" 1965. Genrer som sägen, reseberättelse, roman, självbiografi och dikt exemplifieras.

How do we talk about musical colonisation? How do we talk about this work of talking about it; that is, interrogating what we mean by colonisation and its counter-logic of decolonisation or decoloniality? What can and must we talk about in this particular moment – when talk of decolonisation is at an all-time high, yet without clear consensus and much misuse of the concept? These questions, and th
