The production of e(+)e(-) pairs for m(e+e-) < 0.3 GeV/c(2) and 1< p(T) < 5 GeV/c is measured in p + p and Au + Au collisions at root s(NN) = 200 GeV. An enhanced yield above hadronic sources is observed. Treating the excess as photon internal conversions, the invariant yield of direct photons is deduced. In central Au + Au collisions, the excess of the direct photon yield over p + p is exponentia
The paper describes a debris-free, efficient laser-produced plasma source emitting EUV radiation. The source is based on a double-stream Xe/He gas-puff. Its properties and spectroscopic signatures are characterized and discussed. The spatio-spectral features of the EUV emission are investigated. We show a large body of results related to the intensity and brightness of the EUV emission, its spatia
Oncology care in Europe is facing challenging circumstances. The report aims to derive evidence-based policy recommendations on how to optimize access to oncology care and how to achieve a high-quality standard that is both achievable and sustainable. The report looks at the full cancer patient pathway encompassing primary prevention, screening, diagnostics and treatment. Special emphasis is plac
At present, only one exchange of an icodextrin-based solution is recommended to increase peritoneal ultrafiltration (UF) during long-dwell exchanges in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients with impaired UF. To review our experience with two icodextrin exchanges per day on net UF and body weight in PD patients with poor UF. Data were analyzed on nine patients with poor UF on chronic PD who were given
The currently used 8% fragrance mix (FM I) does not identify all patients with a positive history of adverse reactions to fragrances. A new FM II with 6 frequently used chemicals was evaluated in 1701 consecutive patients patch tested in 6 dermatological centres in Europe. FM II was tested in 3 concentrations - 28% FM II contained 5% hydroxyisohexyl 3-cyclohexene carboxaldehyde (Lyral((R))), 2% ci
Poststernotomy mediastinitis, also commonly called deep sternal wound infection, is one of the most feared complications in patients undergoing cardiac surgery. The overall incidence of poststernotomy mediastinitis is relatively low, between 1% and 3%, however, this complication is associated with a significant mortality, usually reported to vary between 10% and 25%. At the present time, there is
Low molecular weight organic carbon compounds are potentially important carbon and energy substrates to heterotrophic production in the aquatic environment. We studied the occurrence of dissolved free amino acids (AA), monosaccharides (CHO), and carboxylic acids (CA) in the subarctic Lake Diktar-Erik. The lake is unproductive with slightly humic water, and receives water via one major inlet stream
Lipolysis is an important metabolic pathway controlling energy homeostasis through degradation of triglycerides stored in lipid droplets and release of fatty acids. Lipid droplets of mammalian cells are coated with one or more members of the PAT protein family, which serve important functions in regulating lipolysis. In this study, we investigate the mechanisms by which PAT family members, perilip
Diversity in the genetic profile between individuals and specific ethnic groups affects nutrient requirements, metabolism and response to nutritional and dietary interventions. Indeed, individuals respond differently to lifestyle interventions (diet, physical activity, smoking, etc.). The sequencing of the human genome and subsequent increased knowledge regarding human genetic variation is contrib
Vad har Sense of Belonging för betydelse på arbetsplatser? Studier på Belonging är omfattande och har visat sig ha många positiva effekter, trots detta har det länge funnits en lucka inom studier på vad Belonging har för inverkan på just arbetsplatser. Syftet för denna studie var att undersöka Sense of Belonging och dess potentiella påverkan på Organizational Identification (OID), Self-Efficacy ocWhat significance does Sense of Belonging hold in workplaces? Studies on Belonging are extensive and have revealed numerous positive effects. Despite this, there has long been a gap in the research focusing on the impact of Belonging in the workplace. The aim of this study was to investigate Sense of Belonging and its potential influence on Organizational Identification (OID), Self-Efficacy, and w
This thesis explored the experiences and performances of female Malawian YouTubers. It is grounded in the understanding of the digital realm as a liberal space in which common people can showcase their own realities without the mediation of the structures of censorship common in traditional media. At the core of the research which informed this thesis were two questions: firstly, in what ways is e
ASG CRISIS – Kritiska studier av kris Detta ASG är mångfacetterat och interdisciplinärt. Gruppens arbete tar avstamp i alarmerande media- och forskningsrapporter om kris förorsakade av orkaner och översvämningar, politisk instabilitet och oförsägbarhet, civila olycksfall och dödsoffer, krig och konflikt, migration och flyktingströmmar, fattigdom och sjukdom. Sådana skeenden, diskurser, bilder och

Enhancing Recovery From SepsisA Review Enhancing Recovery From Sepsis A Review Hallie C. Prescott, MD, MSc; Derek C. Angus, MD, MPH IMPORTANCE Survival from sepsis has improved in recent years, resulting in an increasing number of patients who have survived sepsis treatment. Current sepsis guidelines do not provide guidance on posthospital care or recovery. OBSERVATIONS Each year, more than 19 mil

Molecular cluster is a nanoparticle that is defined as an agglomerate of few up to 106-7 of molecules (corresponding to 1- 100 nm in size) that can be manipulated by the cluster beams. Molecular cluster properties typically lie between the individual molecule and bulk matter properties. This work describes the employment of the Cold Aerodynamic Source (CAS) to produce a narrow, collimated and iso
The Chinese urban population face serious health issues due to the increasing concentration of air pollutants. Research has shown that air quality was influenced by urban forms, and that special combinations of city characteristics could contribute to sustainable urban development. This study aims to determine how urban forms affected air quality in Chinese cities. In this context, urban forms are

Three spare modules of the ATLAS Tile Calorimeter were exposed to test beams from the Super Proton Synchrotron accelerator at CERN in 2017. The detector’s measurements of the energy response and resolution to positive pions and kaons, and protons with energies ranging from 16 to 30 GeV are reported. The results have uncertainties of a few percent. They were compared to the predictions of the Geant
Synthesis of nanocomposites based on the low density polyethylene (LDPE) with homogeneous dispersion of CeO2 nanoparticles is reported.
