A search for resonant WZ production in the l nu l'l' (l, l' = e, mu) decay channel using 20.3 fb(-1) of root s = 8 TeV pp collision data collected by the ATLAS experiment at LHC is presented. No significant deviation from the Standard Model prediction is observed and upper limits on the production cross sections of WZ resonances from an extended gauge model W' and from a simplified model of heavy

AimChildhood obesity is now an established public health problem in most developed countries, and there is concern about a parallel increase of type 2 diabetes. The aim of this study was to estimate the prevalence of undiagnosed type 2 diabetes in overweight Swedish school children from 11 to 13years of age. MethodsBody mass index (BMI) was measured in 5528 schoolchildren in the 6th grade, from 11

The Tartoq Group, located in SW Greenland, consists of supracrustal rocks of mainly tholeiitic basaltic composition, including pillow lavas, sills/dykes and gabbros, as well as ultramafic rocks. Metamorphic grade ranges from greenschist fades to granulite facies. The Tartoq Group crops out as a series of blocks and slivers that are imbricated with originally intrusive Mesoarchaean TTG orthogneisse

We investigated the interaction of oxygen with the Pd(112) surface from ultrahigh vacuum up to 5 mbars oxygen partial pressure in a temperature range from 523 to 673 K. We combined in situ surface x-ray diffraction with scanning tunneling microscopy, high-resolution core-level spectroscopy, and low-energy electron diffraction. A structural model of the clean Pd(112) is proposed based on the x-ray-

Large open and closed source organizations like Google, Facebook and Mozilla are migrating their products towards rapid releases. While this allows faster time-to-market and user feedback, it also implies less time for testing and bug fixing. Since initial research results indeed show that rapid releases fix proportionally less reported bugs than traditional releases, this paper investigates the c

In joint prosthetic surgery, various methods are used to provide implant stability. We used an injectable bone substitute, composed of calcium sulfate/hydroxyapatite, as bone defect filler to stabilize a tibia prosthesis in an experimental rabbit model. The aim of the study was to investigate and compare the stability of prosthetic fixation with and without the use of an injectable bone substitute

The (Sc1-xZrx)(Co1-yNiy)(2)-H-z system has been studied using both experimental techniques and ab initio calculations. The material was synthesised through high temperature synthesis and characterised using powder XRD. Hydrogen absorption and desorption was studied in-situ using synchrotron radiation. Maximal storage capacity increased when Co replaced Ni and substitution of Sc for Zr increased th

Background and purpose - The continuously increasing demand for joint replacement surgery in the past decades imposes higher constraints on the budgets of hospitals and healthcare providers. We undertook an analysis of historical trends in total hip replacement performed in Sweden between 1968 and 2012 in order to provide projections of future demand. Data and methods - We obtained data on total h

Objective To investigate the association between caesarean section and later endometriosis. Design A prospective cohort study. Setting The Swedish Patient Register (PAR) and the Swedish Medical Birth Registry (MBR). Sample Women who were delivered in Sweden between 1986 and 2004. Methods Women with the diagnosis of endometriosis, defined as codes 617 (International Classification of Diseases, nint

BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to explore changes in mobility in terms of ambulation and transfer over 1 year in patients with early-onset Alzheimer's disease (EOAD), and to compare mobility in EOAD with patients with other types of early-onset dementia (EOOD). METHOD: Forty-two patients with EOAD and 30 patients with EOOD were included. All patients were home-dwelling and had mild or moder

Popular Abstract in Swedish Gråstarrskirurgi är en av de vanligaste kirurgiska ingreppen i Sverige med runt 90 000 operationer utförda varje år. En åldrande befolkning med ökade krav på livskvalitet och god synskärpa har lett till en ökad operationsfrekvens och fler kirurger behöver utbildas. Utbildning av nya gråstarrskirurger sker förutom ett fåtal träningstillfällen på grisar, framförallt på paCataract surgery is one of the most common surgical procedures in Sweden and around 90 000 operations are made each year. An aging population with increased demands on quality of life and good visual acuity, has led to an increased rate of surgery and more surgeons needs to be trained. Training of new cataract surgeons is done on scarce wet-lab training but mainly on patients. Training is costly a

In an analytical-method comparison study of clinical samples, the Abbott RealTime CT new formulation assay (m2000 real-time PCR), consisting of a duplex PCR targeting different parts of the cryptic plasmid in Chlamydia trachomatis, was compared both with version 2 of the Roche Cobas TaqMan CT assay, comprising a duplex PCR for a target in the cryptic plasmid and the omp1 gene, and with the Gen-Pro

The recent phenomenon of large-scale acquisition of land for a variety of investment purposes has raised deep concerns over the food security, livelihood and socio-economic development of communities in many regions of the developing world. This study set out to investigate the food security outcomes of land acquisitions in northern Sierra Leone. Using a mixture of quantitative and qualitative res

In this work, a Study of the interfacial properties of redox-active novel ferrocene- and 1,4-naphthoquinone-based compounds containing an alkenyl chain is presented. The miscibility of these corn. pounds with 1-monooleoylglycerol (monoolein, MO), a well-known and much studied substance because of its rich polyinorphism in water, at the air/water interfaces was investigated by using the Langmuir su

Fire accidents in underground transportation systems, e.g., tunnels and underground stations, can cause many fatalities. It is therefore important in fire safety design to give adequate consideration to all aspects related to evacuation. The paper provides a review of two previously reported fire accidents based on a theoretical framework, namely four accepted human behaviour theories. These theor
