Breast cancer risk factors and survival by tumor subtype : pooled analyses from the Breast Cancer Association Consortium
BACKGROUND: It is not known if modifiable lifestyle factors that predict survival after invasive breast cancer differ by subtype.METHODS: We analyzed data for 121,435 women diagnosed with breast cancer from 67 studies in the Breast Cancer Association Consortium with 16,890 deaths (8,554 breast cancer-specific) over 10 years. Cox regression was used to estimate associations between risk factors and
The seaweed experience: exploring the potential and value of a marine resource
The article addresses the broader relationships between seaweed and algae as a marine resource, destination development, and sustainability. In many European countries, an industry around seaweed has emerged, ranging from high-end restaurants that provide their customers with local, seasonal and sustainableingredients, to entrepreneurs offering “harvest your own seaweed”-tours. In this explorative
Neoliberal Urban Planning Through Social Government: Notes on the Demographic Re‐engineering of Malmö
The patchwork planning of a welfare landscape: reappraising the role of leisure planning in the Swedish welfare state
Crocodilians Are Promising Intermediate Model Organisms for Comparative Perception Research
Crocodilians are the closest living relatives of birds and share many ecological challenges with mammalian apex predators. They evolved perception pathways that share similarities with both taxa, birds and mammals. Due to their position in the tree of life, crocodilians therefore represent a promising intermediate model for comparative research. In this review, the different modalities of percepti
An affordances apparatus for enterprise social media
The current paper addresses one of the core yet complex issues in the study of technology in organizations: the relationship between the social and the material. Many scholars in the field of Information Systems have used the notion of affordance as a lens to investigate and theorize this relationship. However, knowledge contributions in this area are often abstract and impractical, or at least co
Satisfying wishes for SKA engineers : How Taranta suite meets users' needs
SKA Construction phase we are now in a transition phase that hopefully will prepare us for the next challenge: start building the SKA. One of the targets of this period is to evaluate the suitability of the Taranta (proper Webjive) Suite for creating engineering User Interfaces (UIs). The Taranta suite is a framework that allows the fast creation of web UIs that directly communicate with TANGO dev
The shifting role of unions in the social dialogue
The industrial relations models among the EU/EES countries vary widely. The Nordic model of self-regulation contrasts sharply to French state extension of collective agreements and minimum wage set by the state. While social dialogue often refers to tripartite negotiations, bipartite collective bargaining is characteristic of self-regulation. Swedish self-regulation is the most far-reaching among

A time-frequency-shift invariant parameter estimator for oscillating transient functions using the matched window reassignment
In this paper we present the matched window reassignment method, generalizing the results to complex valued signals in multiple dimensions. For an oscillating transient signal with an envelope shape described by an arbitrary twice differentiable function, the reassigned spectrogram, with a matched window, concentrates all energy into one single time-frequency point. An estimator for the parameters
A comprehensive review on the controlled release of encapsulated food ingredients; fundamental concepts to design and applications
Background: Controlled release (CR) systems have emerged as powerful platforms for innovative formulations and dietary designs to enhance the techno-functional performance of bioactive food ingredients both in human body and food products. Generally, the term CR, has developed to indicate delivery systems with optimal control over release rate and performance. However, there are principles and req
Same, same but different : Proportionality assessments and equality norms
Proportionality reasoning is an established form of legal argumentation under international human rights law, employed by the European Court of Human Rights and the United Nations (UN) human rights treaty bodies alike. However, relatively little has been written about its precise role and content in relation to equality norms. Proportionality scholars tend to draw on other examples to demonstrate

TISSUE CHARACTERIZATION USING LASER-INDUCED FLUORESCENCE.
In cancer tumor detection, tissue autofluorescence and characteristic features of injected hematoporphyrin derivative (HPD) can be utilized. The authors have studied the importance of the excitation wavelength for the achievable contrast between tumor and surrounding tissue using a rat tumor model. They have also compared the relative merits of two HPD preparations for tumor fluorescence detection
Intimate Food : Establishing Relationships within the Food Chain
The aim of the dissertation is to explore how actors within the food value chain form meaningful relationships, practically and emotionally, with food and through food. It analyzes the making of these relations through the lens of organic, local and heritage food. It demonstrates that the impetus common to various food initiatives – such as organic, local and heritage food – is that they try to br
Nasal symptoms increase the risk of snoring and snoring increases the risk of nasal symptoms. A longitudinal population study
Purpose: Humans have a preference for nasal breathing during sleep. This 10-year prospective study aimed to determine if nasal symptoms can predict snoring and also if snoring can predict development of nasal symptoms. The hypothesis proposed is that nasal symptoms affect the risk of snoring 10 years later, whereas snoring does not increase the risk of developing nasal symptoms. Methods: In the co
RECLAMATION OF AL-KARAMA DAM WATER USING SOLAR ENERGY FOR DESALINATION- JORDAN
Jordan has one of the lowest available water supplies in the world; meanwhile, Jordan has seen a large increase in population and refugee’s fluxes, leading to an increase in water demand. To address this unprecedented water scarcity, Jordan’s water must be used where its social and economic value is highest. Jordan must treat and reuse virtually every drop of water. With using brackish water (i.e,
