Electron extraction from excited quantum dots with higher order coulomb scattering
The electron kinetics in nanowire-based hot-carrier solar cells is studied, where both relaxation and extraction are considered concurrently. Our kinetics is formulated in the many-particle basis of the interacting system. Detailed comparison with simplified calculations based on product states shows that this includes the Coulomb interaction both in lowest and higher orders. While relaxation rate
Humoral first-line mucosal innate defence in vivo
Based on observations in vivo in guinea-pig and human airways, this review presents plasma exudation as non-sieved transmission of bulk plasma across an unperturbed mucosa that maintains its normal barrier functions. Several steps have led to the present understanding of plasma exudation as a non-injurious response to mucosal challenges. The implication of a swift appearance of all circulating mul
Äktenskap i Theorin : en lundensisk kärleksskandal från 1878
En lundensisk stadsläkare, en dansk diktare, och en pappersfabrikants dotter bor under samma tak – det skulle kunna vara inledningen på ett dålig vits, men är i själva verket början på ett kärleks- och triangeldrama som skakade Lund under andra halvan av artonhundratalet. Arkivarien vid universitetsarkivet Henrik Ullstad skriver om en äktenskapsskandal som slog sönder familjer, krossade en lovandeA town medical officer in Lund, a Danish poet and a paper manufacturer’s daughter living under the same roof – it could be the start to a bad joke, however, it is actually the start of a dramatic love triangle that shook Lund during the second half of the nineteenth century. University archivist Henrik Ullstad writes about a relationship scandal that destroyed families, crushed a promising career,
Quantitative, qualitative and spatial analysis of lymphocyte infiltration in periampullary and pancreatic adenocarcinoma
Immunotherapeutic modalities are currently revolutionizing cancer treatment. In pancreatic cancer, however, early clinical trials have been disappointing. The optimization of immunotherapeutic strategies requires better understanding of the inflammatory tumor microenvironment. Therefore, the aim of our study was to perform a detailed in situ description of lymphocyte infiltration patterns in resec
‘We are rich in mass graves’ : representing a history of violence through Êzîdî poetry
The 2014 Êzîdî Genocide caused a rupture in the social fabric of the Iraqi religious Êzîdî minority. A search for meaning in the aftermath of violence has caused a group of Şingalî poets to reconstruct memories of the past through their narration in Arabic prose poetry. A narrative analysis has been used on a selection of poems written and interviews conducted with five poets. I investigate their
Smartphones and Newton's first law in escalators and roller coasters
Your body is not a point particle. The nature and direction of the forces counteracting gravity influence your experience of uniform rectilinear motion- A s does your own orientation in relation to the force of gravity. Sensors in smartphones or other devices can capture these forces, and help establish a connection between the personal experience of motion and the textbook description of forces a
Body surface temperature responses to food restriction in wild and captive great tits
During winter at temperate and high latitudes, the low ambient temperatures, limited food supplies and short foraging periods mean small passerines show behavioural, morphological and physiological adaptations to reduce the risk of facing energy shortages. Peripheral tissues vasoconstrict in low ambient temperatures to reduce heat loss and cold injury. Peripheral vasoconstriction has been observed
Effect of selective IK,ACh inhibition by XAF-1407 in an equine model of tachypacing-induced persistent atrial fibrillation
Background and Purpose: Inhibition of the G-protein gated ACh-activated inward rectifier potassium current, IK,ACh may be an effective atrial selective treatment strategy for atrial fibrillation (AF). Therefore, the anti-arrhythmic and electrophysiological properties of a novel putatively potent and highly specific IK,ACh inhibitor, XAF-1407 (3-methyl-1-[5-phenyl-4-[4-(2-pyrrolidin-1-ylethoxymethy

A combined effect of anti-HPA-1a and anti-HLA Class I in pregnancy?
Background: Maternal anti–human leukocyte antigen (HLA) Class I is commonly detected alongside anti–human platelet antigen (HPA)-1a in fetal and neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia (FNAIT). Little is known regarding whether the presence of anti-HLA Class I may exert an additive effect on the risk and severity of FNAIT. Methods and Materials: We reanalyzed samples originally collected as part of a

Multimodal single-cell analysis reveals distinct radioresistant stem-like and progenitor cell populations in murine glioma
Radiation therapy is part of the standard of care for gliomas and kills a subset of tumor cells, while also altering the tumor microenvironment. Tumor cells with stem-like properties preferentially survive radiation and give rise to glioma recurrence. Various techniques for enriching and quantifying cells with stem-like properties have been used, including the fluorescence activated cell sorting (
The interaction between macroprudential and monetary policies: The cases of Norway and Sweden
To shed light on the interaction between macroprudential and monetary policies, we study the inward transmission of foreign monetary policy in conjunction with domestic macroprudential and monetary policies in Norway and Sweden. Using detailed bank-level data we show how Norwegian and Swedish banks’ lending reacts to monetary policy surprises arising abroad, controlling for the domestic macroprude
Maximizing Safety in the Conduct of Alzheimer's Disease Fluid Biomarker Research in the Era of COVID-19
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic led to an abrupt halt of many Alzheimer's disease (AD) research studies at sites spanning the world. This is especially true for studies requiring in-person contact, such as studies collecting biofluids. Since COVID-19 is likely to remain a threat for an extended period, the resumption of fluid biomarker studies requires the development and implemen
Evaluation of the stage classification of anal cancer by the TNM 8th version versus the TNM 7th version
Background: The UICC TNM 7th edition introduced stage groups for anal cancer which in 2019 has not yet come into general use. The new TNM 8th edition from 2016 defines 7 sub-stages. Background data for these changes are lacking. We aimed to investigate whether the new classification for anal cancer reliably predict the prognosis in the different stages. Patients and methods: The Nordic Anal Cancer
Five Centuries of Inequality and Socioeconomic Transformation in the Barcelona Area, 1451 – 1880
Unequal distribution of wealth is a matter of growing concern in contemporary society, but it is also one with deep roots in the past. Several authors have traced the origins of this inequality by reconstructing historical series and collecting and harmonising data from sources and records with uneven territorial and temporal cover (Milanovic et al. (2011), Alfani (2015) Piketty (2014 and 2020)).
Consensus statements on PSMA PET/CT response assessment criteria in prostate cancer
Purpose: Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) is used for (re)staging prostate cancer (PCa) and as a biomarker for evaluating response to therapy, but lacks established response criteria. A panel of PCa experts in nuclear medicine, radiology, and/or urology met on February 21, 2020, in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, to formulate criteri
