The measurement of the deuteron and anti-deuteron production in the rapidity range −1

This Letter presents direct searches for lepton flavour violation in Higgs boson decays, H→eτ and H→μτ, performed with the ATLAS detector at the LHC. The searches are based on a data sample of proton–proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy s=13 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 36.1 fb−1. No significant excess is observed above the expected background from Standard Model proce

New military technologies are animated by fantasies of perfect knowledge, lawfulness, and vision that contrast sharply with the very real limits of human understanding, law, and vision. 'War and Algorithm' look at the increasing power of algorithms in these emerging forms of warfare from the perspectives of critical theory, philosophy, legal studies, and visual studies. Together, the contributions

Apart from the consistently observed differential association between obesity and breast cancer risk by menopausal status, the associations between obesity and other metabolic imbalances with risks of cancers have not been systematically investigated across the age-course. We created two random 50–50% cohorts from six European cohorts comprising 813,927 individuals. In the “discovery cohort”, we u

Growing research focusing on the psychological reactions to terrorism by citizens finds that terrorist attacks perpetrated by individuals belonging to Muslim minorities increase nega- tive attitudes towards those perceived as the ”outgroup”, and especially immigrants and refugees. However, few attempts have been made so far to assess the short-term impact of these attacks. While we know that immed

This paper focuses on how multiple actors promote civic and political participation of immigrants locally. The dominant approach in scholarship on political participation of immigrants —the political opportunity structure—focuses mostly on the role of local institutional actors to examine the constraints and opportunities for immigrants’ civic and political participation. We argue that this main f

Innovations affect urban and rural areas differently. Although thesupply chain management (SCM) literature recognises the interaction betweenurban and rural areas in terms of flow of products, people and communication,the rural perspective is clearly missing. An inductive approach was appliedusing an interdisciplinary panel of international experts to explore challengesand opportunities in the int

Childhood vaccination has been promoted as a global intervention aimed at improving child survival and health, through the reduction of vaccine preventable deaths. However, there exist significant inequalities in achieving universal coverage of child vaccination among and within countries. In this paper, we examine rural-urban inequalities in child immunizations in Ghana. Using data from the recen

Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) represents an attractive therapeutic target in hypertension and heart failure. The biologically active form of ANP is produced by the cardiac serine protease corin, and modulation of its activity might therefore represent a novel approach for ANP augmentation. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are pervasive regulators of gene expression, but their potential role in regulating cor

Background: Hyperlipidaemia is a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease, and atherosclerosis is the underlying cause of both myocardial infarction and stroke. We have previously shown that the Pro251 variant of perilipin-2 reduces plasma triglycerides and may therefore be beneficial to reduce atherosclerosis development. Objective: We sought to delineate putative beneficial effects of the Pr

Objectives There is an epidemic of Mesoamerican nephropathy (MeN) in Central America, where sugarcane production is prominent. Numerous causes are proposed, but to date limited evidence supports any one hypothesis. A nested case-control study using biosamples from a rural, community-based follow-up study of 350 young adults from Northwest Nicaragua at risk of MeN was conducted with the aim of char

Using a highly comprehensive new data set on Swedish researchers, we investigate the effects of inter-university mobility on researcher productivity. Our study suggests substantial gains from mobility on scientific output. The empirical analysis addresses selection using inverse probability treatment censoring weights. We find that mobility induces a long-lasting increase in a researcher's publica

Acquired angioedema due to C1-inhibitor (C1INH) deficiency (AAE) is caused by secondary C1INH deficiency leading to bradykinin-mediated angioedema episodes. AAE typically presents in adulthood and is associated with B cell lymphoproliferation. Anti-C1INH autoantibodies (antiC1INHAbs) are detectable in a subset of AAE cases and considered a hallmark of the disease. When free antiC1INHAbs and malign

Seventeen cases of infections in spinal structures were reported 2010-2017 to the Swedish Health and Social Care Inspectorate (IVO), a government agency responsible for supervising health care, for missed or delayed diagnosis. All patient records were scrutinized in order to find underlying causes and common factors. The delayed diagnoses were equally found among men and women and most frequent in

2014 publicerades Ett forskningsinstitut växer fram – IUI från grundandet till 1950. I den här boken fortsätter historien om Industriens Utredningsinstitut (numera Institutet för Näringslivsforskning). Den period som behandlas är 1950–66, en period då institutet leddes av dynamiska chefer, Jan Wallander (1953–61) och Ragnar Bentzel (1961–66), och dess ställning som Sveriges ledande fristående fors

Den här studien bidrar med sina resultat till kunskapen kring hur kommuner arbetar med krishantering, ett område som tidigare studier visat kräver mer forskning (Choi och Brower, 2006; Marschall, 2015; Jarman et al., 2000; Mullin och Rubado, 2017). Den här studien bidrar även med kunskap kring hur kommuner kan samverka såväl inom den egna organisationen som med andra aktörer över organisatoriska g
