This thesis examines the role of beamlines with publication metadata from the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility (ESRF a large scientific facility offering diverse conditions for scientific research. As a user-oriented Big Science facility, the ESRF channels extremely brilliant light into different experimental areas called beamlines that house specific instruments that cater to the needs of
Purpose: Etoposide to standard R-CHOP is used for high-risk diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) in some countries. Due to the lack of randomized trials, a real-world data study using matching methods was used to test the potential effectiveness of R-CHOEP over R-CHOP. Patients and Methods: This study included patients from the Danish Lymphoma Register diagnosed between 2006 and 2020 at the age o
Background: Fentanyl is commonly administered for procedural pain management in preterm infants, but target concentrations have not yet been defined. Methods: To investigate pharmacokinetics (PK), -dynamics (PD), and -genetics (PG), 25 infants (gestational age 23.3–34.1 weeks) received a fentanyl dose before a skin-breaking procedure (0.5 µg/kg) or tracheal intubation (2 µg/kg). Four pain scales w
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Under the ISBT, the Working Party (WP) for Red Cell Immunogenetics and Blood Group Terminology is charged with ratifying blood group systems, antigens and alleles. This report presents the outcomes from four WP business meetings, one located in Basel in 2019 and three held as virtual meetings during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 and 2021.MATERIALS AND METHODS: As in prev
Humanitarian considerations in the Swedish asylum process. A study of the migration authorities’ balancing act between solidarity and inequality. Medical certi cates are becoming increasingly important as a basis for asylum assessments. Using examples from 24 asylum decisions concerning children and their families, the present article discusses how the Swedish Migration Agency and the Migration Co
Inhibition of mitochondrial permeability transition (mPT) has emerged as a promising approach for neuroprotection and development of well-tolerated mPT inhibitors with favorable blood-brain barrier penetration is highly warranted. In a recent study, 28 clinically available drugs with a common heterocyclic structure were identified as mPT inhibitors e.g. trifluoperazine, promethazine and nortriptyl
The Symphony study showed that at 1 year posttransplant, a regimen based on daclizumab induction, 2 g mycophenolate mofetil (MMF), low-dose tacrolimus and steroids resulted in better renal function and lower acute rejection and graft loss rates compared with three other regimens: two with low-doses of cyclosporine or sirolimus instead of tacrolimus and one with no induction and standard cyclospori
The quantum theory of measurement has been with us since quantum mechanics (QM) was invented. It has recently been invigorated, partly due to the increasing interest in quantum information science. In this, partly pedagogical review, I attempt to give a self-contained overview of the basis of (non-relativistic) QM measurement theory expressed in density matrix formalism. I will not dwell on the ap
Introduction: This study investigated the comparability of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) cutoffs for Elecsys immunoassays for amyloid beta (Aβ)42/Aβ40 or Aβ42/phosphorylated tau (p-tau)181 and the effects of measurement variability when predicting Alzheimer's disease (AD)-related outcomes (i.e., Aβ-positron emission tomography [PET] visual read and AD neuropathology). Methods: We studied 750 participa
Background: Baleen whales are a clade of gigantic and highly specialized marine mammals. Their genomes have been used to investigate their complex evolutionary history and to decipher the molecular mechanisms that allowed them to reach these dimensions. However, many unanswered questions remain, especially about the early radiation of rorquals and how cancer resistance interplays with their huge n
Rubella virus encodes a nonstructural polyprotein with RNA polymerase, methyltransferase, and papain-like cysteine protease activities, along with a putative macrodomain of unknown function. Macrodomains bind ADP-ribose adducts, a post-translational modification that plays a key role in host-virus conflicts. Some macrodomains can also remove the mono-ADP-ribose adduct or degrade poly-ADP-ribose ch
The frame story
takes place in a dystopian Europe, possibly some kind of European Union around 2050 – in a state of conflicts and decay. The protagonists are a retired general, Piscator (cf. Fisher King) and a former journalist, Perle Vaus (cf. Perlesvaus/Perceval/Parsifal). She lost her home because of a new genderrelated law and stays homeless with others, covered by the Saxon bridge.
Immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) has improved outcome for patients with metastatic melanoma but not all benefit from treatment. Several immune- and tumor intrinsic features are associated with clinical response at baseline. However, we need to further understand the molecular changes occurring during development of ICB resistance. Here, we collect biopsies from a cohort of 44 patients with melanom

Background: Postmastectomy radiotherapy (PMRT) impairs the outcome of immediate breast reconstruction in patients with breast cancer, and the sentinel lymph node (SLN) status is crucial in evaluating the need for PMRT. The aim of this study was to develop and validate models to stratify the risk of clinically significant SLN macrometastases (macro-SLNMs) before surgery. Methods: Women diagnosed wi
Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) in ancestrally diverse populations are rapidly expanding, opening up unique opportunities for novel gene discoveries and increased utility of genetic findings in non-European individuals. A popular technique to identify putative causal variants at GWAS loci is via statistical fine-mapping. Despite tremendous efforts, fine-mapping remains a very challenging t
