Primary treatment patterns and survival of cervical cancer in Sweden : A population-based Swedish Gynecologic Cancer Group Study

Objective: Survival in cervical cancer has improved little over the last decades. We aimed to elucidate primary treatment patterns and survival. Methods: Population-based study of patients included in the Swedish Quality Registry for Gynecologic Cancer diagnosed 2011–2015. Main outcome was 5-year relative survival (RS). Age-standardised RS (AS-RS) was estimated for the total cohort and for the poo

Measurement of the production of charm jets tagged with D0 mesons in pp collisions at √s=7 TeV

The production of charm jets in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of s=7 TeV was measured with the ALICE detector at the CERN Large Hadron Collider. The measurement is based on a data sample corresponding to a total integrated luminosity of 6.23 nb−1, collected using a minimum-bias trigger. Charm jets are identified by the presence of a D0 meson among their constituents. The D0 m

Making Blue Carbon : Coastal Ecosystems at the Science-Policy Interface

Klimatkrisen framstår mer och mer som det största hot människan någonsin ställts inför. Även om det politiska svaret kan beskrivas som avvaktande, pågår arbete för att på olika sätt minska klimatförändringarnas effekter, och hantera de risker vi kommer att ställas inför. Världssamfundet är enigt. Den globala medeltemperaturen bör inte öka med mer än 2 grader, och helst inte mer än 1,5 grader, jämfClimate change is a growing threat to mankind. The message from the scientific community is clear: we need to act fast and profoundly. The political response has, however, been slow. The likelihood that we will be able to meet our political climate goals only by reducing emissions is slim. Meanwhile is the interest around ways to capture carbon dioxide that has already been emitted on the rise. In

Potential Risk Factors and Prevalence of Voice Symptoms in Students Starting Their Teacher Education

The aim of the present study was to determine prevalence of voice problems and potential risk factors in teacher students at the start of their education. A total of 1494 students from seven teacher education schools participated in the study. The students answered a questionnaire about 11 risk factors, and one with six questions about voice symptoms, Screen6, and 30 statements in the Voice Handic

Measurement of jet-substructure observables in top quark, W boson and light jet production in proton-proton collisions at √s = 13 TeV with the ATLAS detector

A measurement of jet substructure observables is presented using data collected in 2016 by the ATLAS experiment at the LHC with proton-proton collisions at s = 13 TeV. Large-radius jets groomed with the trimming and soft-drop algorithms are studied. Dedicated event selections are used to study jets produced by light quarks or gluons, and hadronically decaying top quarks and W bosons. The observabl

Flux identification methods of sedimentation

Any reasonable model of sedimentation contains the nonlinear hindered-settling flux function. If one assumes ideal conditions and no compression, then there exist several theoretically possible ways of identifying a large part of the flux function from only one experiment by means of formulas derived from the theory of partial differential equations. Such identification methods, including new resu

Waveform Iteration with asynchronous communication

Consider the coupling of two multi-physics systems of time-dependent ODEs. We propose a new Waveform iteration type method for coupling which uses asynchronous communication to be both parallel in time and fast in convergence. Analytical results show convergence in the continuous setting and numerical results for two coupled head equations show good performance of this method, which is both parall

Comparison of Fragmentation Functions for Jets Dominated by Light Quarks and Gluons from pp and Pb+Pb Collisions in ATLAS

Charged-particle fragmentation functions for jets azimuthally balanced by a high-transverse-momentum, prompt, isolated photon are measured in 25 pb-1 of pp and 0.49 nb-1 of Pb+Pb collision data at 5.02 TeV per nucleon pair recorded with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. The measurements are compared to predictions of Monte Carlo generators and to measurements of inclusively selected

Finite volume based multigrid preconditioners for discontinuous Galerkin methods

Our aim is to construct efficient preconditioners for high order discontinuous Galerkin (DG) methods. We consider the DG spectral element method with Gauss‐Lobatto‐Legendre nodes (DGSEM‐GL) for the 1D linear advection equation. It has been shown in [4] that DGSEM‐GL has the summation‐by‐parts (SBP) property and an equivalent finite volume (FV) discretization is presented in [3]. Thus we present a

How can language be grounded – in a deconstructionist semiotics?

Deconstruction is one of the more (in)famous theories in recent times. In this paper, I argue that the theory of deconstruction, proposed by Derrida in particular, should be read as a systematic and rigorous examination of key philosophical and semiotic notions, such as sign and meaning. The relevance of taking deconstructive critique seriously is explored with the point of departure in Derrida’s
