A measurement of time-dependent CP violation in D0→π+π-π0 decays using a pp collision data sample collected by the LHCb experiment in 2012 and from 2015 to 2018, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 7.7 fb-1, is presented. The initial flavor of each D0 candidate is determined from the charge of the pion produced in the D∗(2010)+→D0π+ decay. The decay D0→K-π+π0 is used as a control channel
IntroductionAbout two thirds of in-hospital deaths following successful resuscitation aftercardiac arrest are due to hypoxic-ischaemic brain injury. (1,2) Most occur after adecision to withdraw from life sustaining therapy (WLST) in patients wheremeaningful neurological recovery is unlikely. (2) In 2021 the EuropeanResuscitation Council (ERC) and the European Society of Intensive Care Medicine(ESI
Weight bias is a social justice issue that manifests in social and health inequities, affecting the lives of millions of individuals globally. Although weight bias research has increased over the last two decades, it remains pervasive, and more work is needed to establish effective strategies to reduce it. The 2024 International Weight Bias Summit aimed to collaboratively identify future research
A spherical reference field is used to construct a digital holography system with a demonstrated resolution down to 228 line pairs per mm. The reference field origin from a GRIN lens placed 1mm from the illuminated object. This allows the use of a standard sensor to record the hologram with the required numerical aperture. The image is determined by evaluation of the Rayleigh-Sommerfeld diffraction i
Popular Abstract in Swedish Ny kunskap gör det möjligt att med hjälp av DNA-information välja ut vilka kvigor/kor som förväntas ge en hög mjölkavkastning, höga halter av mjölkens komponenter och optimala egenskaper för ostproduktion. Denna information kan användas för att bättre anpassa mjölkens sammansättning och processegenskaper med de svenska mejeriernas behov för att på så vis förbättra mjölkMilk genomics is a new area of research that explores the relations between cow genetics and milk characteristics. Identifying the genes controlling compositional and technological traits of milk will give opportunities to select cows for targeted milk production. In this thesis, the impact of different genetic approaches, i.e. quantitative genetic evaluation, single gene effects and genomic selec
Höftprotesoperationer har blivit ett säkert och mycket framgångsrikt kirurgiskt ingrepp och lever upp till mycket av de förväntningar som patienterna har. Förbättring av material, protesdesign och kirurgiska tekniker har förlängt protesöverlevnaden påtagligt. Emellertid är icke optimal protesplacering och felaktigt val av komponentstorlekar känt för att öka risken för biomekaniska problem och ökatTotal hip arthroplasty (THA) has become a safe and very successful surgical intervention. A vast majority of patients get their expectations met. Improvement of materials, implant designs, and surgical techniques, have extended prosthetic survival. However, inferior placement and sizing of a hip prosthesis are known to increase the risk of mechanical failure, wear, and early loosening as well as p
Collimated sprays of paticle, known as jets,are abundantly produced in high-energy proton-proton (pp) collisions, and are predicted by many theories of physics beyond the Standard Model. This thesis reports first on the calibration of jets with focus on the data-driven in situ calibration. Two searches for new physics phenomena in events with jets in the final state are then presented. The analyse
Technical innovations in the area of manufacturing logistics are being introduced partially and thus not exploiting their full potential. In order to optimise the efficiency of turning manufacturing processes, the process has been analysed and fundamentally re-engineered. All data from production (operations, quantities, date, time duration of operations, etc.) are now located in ERPsystem. It pro
Background: Bone age assessment (BAA) is used in numerous pediatric clinical settings as well as in legal settings when entities need an estimate of chronological age (CA) when valid documents are lacking. The latter case presents itself as critical as the law is harsher for adults and granted rights along with imputability changes drastically if the individual is a minor. Traditional BAA methods
The concept of critical performativity–efforts to make critical research more relevant for groups outside academia and develop and communicate action-relevant critical insights with some potential effect–has received considerable interest. Much of this has focused on debates about the core concept and principles. This paper argues for the need to “do”–more than talk about–critical performativity a
Background: Nutrition and lifestyle have been long established as risk factors for colorectal cancer (CRC). Modifiable lifestyle behaviours bear potential to minimize long-term CRC risk; however, translation of lifestyle information into individualized CRC risk assessment has not been implemented. Lifestyle-based risk models may aid the identification of high-risk individuals, guide referral to sc
Swedish nursing homes' use of Instagram has increased vastly in the past few years. Instagram is understood as a means to manage the image they wish to mediate to the public. This article examines what is displayed in the nursing homes' Instagram accounts, and what kind of reality is thereby constructed. The data consist of 338 Instagram images from four nursing homes' Instagram accounts. It is fo
Aims. We report 20 new lithium-rich giants discovered within the Gaia-ESO Survey, including the first Li-rich giant with an evolutionary stage confirmed by CoRoT (Convection, Rotation and planetary Transits) data. We present a detailed overview of the properties of these 20 stars. Methods. Atmospheric parameters and abundances were derived in model atmosphere analyses using medium-resolution GIRAF
Previous studies indicate that the sound environments normally present at hospitals in general and intensive care units in particular, may pose a risk for prolonged patient recovery and for the personnel, disruption of concentration, increased tiredness and possibly more errors. As part of a larger study of the effects of the sound environment in intensive care units (ICU), personnel response was
