Den antiamerikanska vänstern har fått en märklig ny sängkamrat efter Rysslands invasion av Ukraina: den ”realistiska” skolan inom internationella relationer, företrädd av den amerikanske professorn John Mearsheimer. Detta trots att realismen visat sig usel som prognosverktyg och att tron på den starkes rätt över den svage är något som annars brukar leda till protester – åtminstone mot USA, skriverDen antiamerikanska vänstern har fått en märklig ny sängkamrat efter Rysslands invasion av Ukraina: den ”realistiska” skolan inom internationella relationer, företrädd av den amerikanske professorn John Mearsheimer.

BACKGROUND: Patients with oesophageal and gastric cancer have a low likelihood of being cured and suffer from a broad spectrum of symptoms and problems that negatively affect their quality-of-life (QOL). Although the majority (67-75%) of patients at the time of diagnosis suffer from an incurable disease, research has primarily focused on the pre- and postoperative phase among patients treated with

In this third episode of the podcast Nic and Rebecca invite Jens Hoeijmakers to the mic and chat to him about ultra-hot Jupiters and their atmospheres. Thereafter they take a closer look at a comet, which is named after the its two discoverers: Michel Giacobini and Ernst Zinner.

Boken är en analys av den normandiska erövringen av England, med fokus på slaget vid Hastings, men med utförliga redogörelser för tiden före och efter drabbningen.

Boken är en översiktlig genomgång och analys av den antika världens sju underverk, med utblick mot liknande fenomen i modern tid.

The existing information supports the use of this material as described in this safety assessment. Octyl isobutyrate was evaluated for genotoxicity, repeated dose toxicity, reproductive toxicity, local respiratory toxicity, phototoxicity/photoallergenicity, skin sensitization, and environmental safety. Data from read-across analog hexyl isobutyrate (CAS # 2349-07-7) show that octyl isobutyrate is

Presentation av ett rättssociologiskt forskningsprojekt som replikerar en rättssociologisk undersökning om det allmänna rättsmedvetandet och brottsskadeersättningen. Att projektet är en ”replika” innebär att syftet har varit att göra en uppföljning av ett ursprungligt forskningsprojekt som i det aktuella fallet utgörs av de enkätundersökningar som presterades i avhandlingen ”Kränkning och upprätte

BACKGROUND: The Flow-Self Organizing Maps (FlowSOM) artificial intelligence (AI) program, available within the Bioconductor open-source R-project, allows for an unsupervised visualization and interpretation of multiparameter flow cytometry (MFC) data.METHODS: Applied to a reference merged file from 11 normal bone marrows (BM) analyzed with an MFC panel targeting erythropoiesis, FlowSOM allowed to

Aims: It is increasingly recognized that tools are required for assessing and benchmarking quality of care in order to improve it. The European Society of Cardiology (ESC) is developing a suite of quality indicators (QIs) to evaluate cardiovascular care and support the delivery of evidence-based care. This paper describes the methodology used for their development. Methods and results: We propose

Complement factor I (FI) is a central inhibitor of the complement system, and impaired FI function increases complement activation, contributing to diseases such as age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS). Genetic variation in complement factor I (CFI) has been identified in both AMD and aHUS, with more than half of these variants leading to reduced FI

Exaggerated neutrophil activation and formation of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) are reported in systemic sclerosis (SSc) but its involvement in SSc pathogenesis is not clear. In the present study we assessed markers of neutrophil activation and NET formation in SSc patients in relation to markers of inflammation and disease phenotype. Factors promoting neutrophil activation in SSc remain

Background and purpose - Hip surveillance in children with cerebral palsy (CP) includes repeated radiographic hip examinations and measurements of the hip migration percentage (MP) to identify hips in need of surgery early, to prevent dislocation with the fewest number of radiographic examinations possible. We analyzed the early development of the MP in hips operated on to prevent hip dislocation

Background and purpose - Intramedullary nails (IMN) have become increasingly common as treatment for trochanteric hip fractures (THF) although they are costlier, and without proven superiority compared with sliding hip screws (SHS). We investigated whether the 2 methods differ in terms of short-term mortality when used in fractures where both methods are suitable. Patients and methods - We extract

Background and purpose - Knowing how to interpret values obtained with patient reported outcome measures (PROMs) is essential. We estimated the substantial clinical benefit (SCB) and patient acceptable symptom state (PASS) for Forgotten Joint Score 12 (FJS) and explored differences depending on methods used for the estimates. Patients and methods - The study was based on 195 knee arthroplasties (K

Increasing land use pressure is a primary force for degradation of agricultural areas. The drivers for these pressures are initiated by a series of interconnected processes. This study presents a novel methodology to analyze drivers of changing land use pressure and the effects on society and landscape. The focus was on characterizing these drivers and relate them to land use statistics obtained f
