Arsenic (As) is one of the most important dangerous elements as more than 100 million of people are exposed to risk, globally. The permissible threshold of As for drinking water is 10 μg/L according to both the WHO’s drinking water guidelines and the Iranian national standard. However, several studies have indicated that As concentrations exceed this threshold value in several regions of Iran. Thi
BACKGROUND: Trace elements like iodine have been suggested to be associated with breast cancer due to their antioxidant properties and ecological differences in incidence and mortality. Yet, there are no epidemiological studies on breast cancer prognosis in relation to iodine levels. The primary aim of this study was to investigate the association between prediagnostic serum iodine levels and brea
RATIONALE: Preterm infants diagnosed with bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) are thought to have fewer and larger alveoli than their term peers, but it is unclear to what degree this persists later in life.OBJECTIVES: To investigate to what degree the distal airspaces are enlarged in adolescents born preterm and to evaluate the new Airspace Dimension Assessment (AiDA) method in investigating this gr
This paper gives an overview of the approach of working methods at the Aedas R&D Computational Design and Research [CDR] Group. It first contextualizes research in architectural practice and tries to propose an explanation for the difficulties in implementing it; then explains the evolution of the groups' computing approach from bespoke to heuristic sets of lightweight applications. It conclud
High-risk human papillomavirus (hrHPV) genotype is needed for adequate cervical cancer screening and HPV vaccination program evaluation as recommended by different guidelines. We aimed to assess the rate of HPV infection and HPV genotype distribution using vaginal self-sampling in a cohort of unscreened reproductive-age women in Ethiopia. A community-based cohort study was conducted with women age
PURPOSE The ESPAC4 trial showed that adjuvant chemotherapy with gemcitabine plus capecitabine (GemCap) produced longer overall survival (OS) than gemcitabine monotherapy. Subsequently, the PRODIGE24-CCTG PA.6 trial showed even longer survival for modified fluorouracil, folinic acid, irinotecan, and oxaliplatin (mFOLFIRINOX) than gemcitabine but had more restrictive eligibility criteria. Our aim wa
This paper examines how violent conflict affects the supply of education in one of the world’s poorest countries, Burkina Faso. We combine unique nationwide census data on all primary schools with geocoded records of Islamist violence to assess how local conflict exposure shapes school availability, staffing, and the mix of education provision. Using a staggered difference-in-differences design anThis paper examines how violent conflict affects the supply of education in one of the world’s poorest countries, Burkina Faso.

Introduction: The recent Covid-19 pandemic has renewed interest in studying the impact of environmental factors on the airborne transmission of viral infectious diseases. Human rhinovirus is the main cause of acute respiratory infections, primarily driven by young children who have an average of 6 -10 infections annually, while healthy adults typically experience 2–3 infections per year. Although
We present a belief propagation (BP) algorithm with probabilistic data association (DA) for detection and tracking of specular multipath components (MPCs). In real dynamic measurement scenarios, the number of MPCs reflected from visible geometric features, the MPC dispersion parameters, and the number of false alarm contributions are unknown and time-varying. We develop a Bayesian model for specul
OBJECTIVES: Preterm birth has been linked with increased risk of autism spectrum disorder (ASD); however, potential causality, sex-specific differences, and association with early term birth are unclear. We examined whether preterm and early term birth are associated with ASD in a large population-based cohort. METHODS: A national cohort study was conducted of all 4 061 795 singleton infants born
Background: Studies on long-term exposure to air pollution at high levels suggest an association with increased risk of metabolic syndrome (MetS). We aimed to study this relationship at very low levels, less well-studied, yet of public health importance. Methods: The Swedish CArdioPulmonary bioImage Study (SCAPIS) consists of randomly selected subjects aged 50–64 years from six large cities in Swe
IntroductionWater scarcity is a growing problem, with estimates showing that 40% of the world’s population could face water shortages by 2030. This issue is even worse because only 3% of the Earth’s water is freshwater, while 97% is seawater. Finding better ways to save and use water is critical to solving this problem. At the same time, renewable energy is essential for reducing carbon emissions
The article is an introduction to the festival 'Visioner av Nuet' Stockholm, 1966. The article focuses on the historical event, and contextualizes it to both the discussions on art and technology at the time, and to the planned collaborations with the prominent artists from the American group E.A.T. such as Billy Klüver, John Cage, Robert Rauchenberg and Öyvind Fahlström, - collaborations that nev
Background: The objective was to investigate in a group of obese subjects the course in skeletal muscle phospholipid (SMPL) fatty acids (FA) during a 24-weeks weight maintenance program, which was preceded by a successful very low calorie dietary intervention (VLCD). Special focus was addressed to SMPL omega-3 FA, which is a lipid entity that influences insulin action. Methods: Nine obese subjects
We report on the multi-wavelength observations of PKS 1510-089 (a flat spectrum radio quasar (FSRQ) at z = 0.361) during its high activity period between 2008 September and 2009 June. During this 11 month period, the source was characterized by a complex variability at optical, UV, and gamma-ray bands, on timescales down to 6-12 hr. The brightest gamma-ray isotropic luminosity, recorded on 2009 Ma
Aims: To study mortality rates among patients with diabetes and concomitant atrial fibrillation (AF), prescribed different cardiovascular drugs in primary health care. Methods: Study population consisted of men (n = 1319) and women (n = 1094) aged = >= 45 years from a database including 75 primary care centres in Sweden. Cox regression analysis, with hazard ratios (HRs), 95% confidence interval (9
Ultrafast accelerator-based sources combined with synchronized femtosecond lasers are currently being developed. The method described here is intended as a jitter monitor at such facilities. We report on the possibility of extracting a time-offset signal between two different synchronized ultrashort light pulses. The method is based on sum-frequency generation in a nonlinear crystal. Aiming at ext
