Function, information, and contributions : An evaluation of national multidisciplinary team meetings for rare cancers

National virtual multidisciplinary team meetings have been established in Swedish cancer care in response to centralized treatment of rare cancers. Though national meetings grant access to a large multidisciplinary network, we hypothesized that video-based meetings may challenge participants’ contributions to the case discussions. We investigated participants’ views and used observational tools to

Light for brevity

The shortest time interval controlled by a human being is the duration of a light pulse as short as only 100 attoseconds, i.e., 10-16 s. This "attosecond" light pulse belongs to the extreme ultraviolet range (XUV) of the electromagnetic spectrum, with central photon energy typically between 20 and 200 eV. Related to its brevity, an attosecond pulse has a broad bandwidth covering tens of eV. These

Perturbation order effect in multiphoton ionization of He+ ions

We study the behavior of the multiphoton ionization rate of He+ ions as a function of the perturbation order N. By comparing the N-, (N+1)-,..., (N+S)-photon ionization processes, we prove that the absorption of photon in the continuum spectrum is increased at the largest wavelengths.

Many-body approach to two- and three-photon double ionization and excitation of xenon

We investigate different processes which may be responsible for ejection of two electrons from the external shell of xenon through the absorption of two and three photons, namely two-photon direct double ionization and three-photon sequential double ionization via the ion in an excited state or in the ground state. We calculate the cross sections of the ionization processes involved, using many-bo

Beyond dispersal : the roles of animal movement in modern agricultural landscapes

In this chapter three major concepts relating animal population dynamics to landscape change mediated by animal mobility are outlined: meta-population/community dynamics (affecting many habitat specialists), spillover (affecting e.g. ground-living predators), and landscape complementation (affecting e.g. central-place foragers). It is shown that all three concepts contribute to current understandi

Platelet Serotonin Levels Are Associated with Plasma Soluble Leptin Receptor Concentrations in Normoglycemic Women

Most peripheral serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine (5HT)) is synthetized in the gut with platelets being its main circulating reservoir. 5HT is acting as a hormone in key organs to regulate glucose and lipid metabolism. However, the relation between platelet 5HT levels and traits related to glucose homeostasis and lipid metabolism in humans remains poorly explored. The objectives of this study were (a

Antiferromagnetism with a twist

A variety of magnetic structures based around ferromagnetic spin spirals have been the topic of intense study over the past decade. The discovery of spin spirals that arise from antiferromagnetic order has just broadened the horizons for magnetic possibilities even further.

First Genome-Wide Association Study of Latent Autoimmune Diabetes in Adults Reveals Novel Insights Linking Immune and Metabolic Diabetes

OBJECTIVE: Latent autoimmune diabetes in adults (LADA) shares clinical features with both type 1 and type 2 diabetes; however, there is ongoing debate regarding the precise definition of LADA. Understanding its genetic basis is one potential strategy to gain insight into appropriate classification of this diabetes subtype.RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: We performed the first genome-wide association

Socio-Technical Perspectives on Smart Working : Creating Meaningful and Sustainable Systems

Technological advances have made possible industrial and commercial applications of artificial intelligence, virtual reality and highly integrated manufacturing systems. It has also freed business activity from a focus on place, as both work activities and markets have been able to harness information and communication technologies in order to operate remotely. As a result, researchers have highli

Combined association of key risk factors on ischaemic outcomes and bleeding in patients with myocardial infarction

Objective: In patients with myocardial infarction (MI), risk factors for bleeding and ischaemic events tend to overlap, but the combined effects of these factors have scarcely been studied in contemporary real-world settings. We aimed to assess the combined associations of established risk factors using nationwide registries. Methods: Using the Swedish Web-system for Enhancement and Development of

Things Keep Their Secrets

Following Emily Wardill's exhibition "Matt Black and Rat" at Bergen Kunsthall, January 20th to March 26th 2017, the publication Things Keep Their Secrets, is an extensive and multi-faceted work which includes both images and stills from the artist's latest works, the unique fumages, manually inserted into each of the 750 copies – as well as two newly commissioned texts by philosopher Michael Marde

Landscape-Scale Variability of Organic Carbon Burial by SW Greenland Lakes

Lakes are a key feature of arctic landscapes and can be an important component of regional organic carbon (OC) budgets, but C burial rates are not well estimated. 210 Pb-dated sediment cores and carbon and organic matter (as loss-on-ignition) content were used to estimate OC burial for 16 lakes in SW Greenland. Burial rates were corrected for sediment focusing using the 210 Pb flux method. The
