Objective: The association between consumption of fruit and vegetables and risk of ovarian cancer is still unclear from a prospective point of view. Methods: Female participants (n = 325,640) of the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition study, free of any cancer at baseline, were followed on average for 6.3 years to develop ovarian cancer. During 2,049,346 person-years, 581
BACKGROUND. Leiomyosarcoma of nonvisceral soft tissues is an uncommon malignant tumor; thus, only small numbers of cases have been reported. This study was based on a large series of patients from the Scandinavian Sarcoma Group Register acquired during a 15-year period (from 1986 to 2001). Follow-up information was available for all patients. METHODS. The authors analyzed the clinical features of
The O-arm system is a mobile intraoperative imaging system that is comprised of fluoroscopy and cone beam CT. The configuration of the O-arm system with absence of patient table and a broad beam width (165 mm in isocenter) brings new practical and physical requirements on how to perform dose measurements. The purpose of this study was to describe a method that overcomes this and makes it possible
Phosphorus-31 nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectra (103.2 MHz) were obtained from rabbit portal vein, urinary bladder, and taenia coli smooth muscle. The muscles were mounted isometrically as strips in a horizontal probe and superfused with oxygenated medium at 23 degrees C. Under these conditions the preparations could remain in a stable metabolic state for at least 24 h. The resonances obser
We performed a large nested case-control study within the Finnish and Icelandic maternity cohorts to verify/falsify the association of maternal EBV infection with an increased risk of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) in the offspring found in previous studies. All hematologic malignancies diagnosed among children born during 1983 to 2006 in Finland and 1997 to 2005 in Iceland were identified thr
Reformulation strategies for solving Fitch’s paradox of knowability date back to Edgington. Their core assumption is that the formula \ , from which the paradox originates, does not correctly express the intended meaning of the verification thesis , which should concern possible knowledge of actual truths, and therefore the contradiction does not represent a logical refutation of verificationism.
Nematophagous fungi are soil-living fungi that are used as biological control agents of plant and animal parasitic nematodes. Their potential could be improved by genetic engineering, but the lack of information about the molecular background of the infection has precluded this development. In this paper we report that a subtilisin-like extracellular serine protease designated PII is an important
OBJECTIVES:: Individuals with chronic pain often report increased pain sensitivity compared to pain free individuals, so it is crucial to determine if and how different pain characteristics influence or interact with pain sensitivity. An alternative to experimental pain sensitivity testing is the self-reported pain sensitivity questionnaire (PSQ), that captures pain sensitivity in various body are
The aim of this bachelor’s degree essay is to investigate and analyse Søren Kierkegaard as a theologian. Out of the traditional conception of Kierkegaard’s philosophy about the autonomous, free, capable and free to develop oneself, I ask the question – in what purpose do God need to incarnate in order to save humanity? To this question I ask three additional subqueries: according to Kierkegaard in
Inom stålindustrin är naturlig konvektion en konventionell kylningsmetod. Genom att öka kylhastigheten jämfört med naturlig konvektion kan produktiviteten öka då kylbäddarna kan kortas och stålplåtarna tillbringar mindre tid under kylning. Detta frigör plats och sparar tid. Då möjligheten att använda infraljud till kylning redan har bekräftats genom experiment, ska denna masteruppsats försöka besv

Using a new channel shape equation for straight channels and a more versatile channel shape or local flow depth equation for natural streams a method is developed for prediction of the longitudinal dispersion coefficient in single-channel natural streams, including straight and meandering ones. The method involves derivation of a new triple integral expression for the longitudinal dispersion coeff
Square Kilometer Array (SKA) is a project aimed to build the largest radio telescope in the world and it has just gotten into the construction phase. In this phase, the ability to develop and integrate software in an integration environment is crucial as it is the ability to visualize system-related information via a User Interface to rapidly verify the correctness of the system behavior and spot
In samples from patients treated with oxazepam, beta-glucuronidase increased the immunoreactivity of urinary benzodiazepines analyzed by fluorescence polarization immunoassay (FPIA). Increasing concentrations of beta-glucuronidase added to samples from drug-free controls did not influence the results. In the absence of beta-glucuronidase, 22 of 35 samples from patients undergoing detoxification ga
This article quantifies the energy saving potential and robustness of nine energy retrofitting measures, as well as four combinations of these, for residential building stocks of three major cities in Sweden and for five scenarios of future climatic conditions, downscaled by a regional climate model (RCM). The retrofitting measures are evaluated for five temporal resolutions of hourly, daily, mont
Primary plasmacytoma of the lung is a rare tumor, thus presenting a diagnostic challenge to the clinician. So far, approximately 20 cases have been verified by immunohistochemistry. We describe an elderly patient presenting with progressive dyspnea on exertion, dry cough, weight loss and malaise. The main finding on plain chest radiography was a diffuse infiltration of pulmonary parenchyma in the
The design of multiple antennas in compact mobile terminals is a significant challenge, due to both practical and fundamental design tradeoffs. In this paper, fundamental antenna design tradeoffs of multiple antenna terminals are presented in the framework of characteristic mode analysis. In particular, interactions between the antenna elements and the characteristic modes and their impact on desi
