Purpose: This study aims to explore the 3 D separated flow fields and heat transfer characteristics at the end wall of a serpentine channel with various turn clearances using topological analysis and critical points principles of three-dimensional vortex flow. Design/methodology/approach: This aims to explore the 3 D separated flow fields and heat transfer characteristics at the end wall of a serp
Positive ascites cytology is a strong prognostic factor in patients with early-stage ovarian cancer (OvCa). However, limited information is currently available on the impact of positive ascites cytology on patient prognoses under each clinical background. We herein investigated the comprehensive impact of positive ascites cytology on patients with epithelial OvCa and the effectiveness of additiona
Drawing on unique sources from the Swedish Migration Agency Archive, this article examines how Afghan asylum seekers and refugees fared in their encounter with Swedish internal and external controls of people seeking protection from persecution during the Cold War. Within a theoretical framework that draws on the concept of statist logic, the history of refugeehood, interactionist sociology and cr
We have imaged the emissions from excitons and free charges in a methylammonium lead bromide perovskite (MAPbBr3) crystal. In a direct band gap semiconductor, dynamics of excited electrons and holes in hybrid lead-halide perovskites is rather complex because of the formation of excitons and the presence of traps and structural inhomogeneities. A recent report by Nah et al. (Nah, S.; Spokoyny, B.;
Objectives: We conducted a large cohort study to investigate the association between work-related wrist movements and carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS). Methods: Electro-goniometric measurements of wrist movements were performed for 30 jobs (eg, office work, child care, laundry work and slaughterhouse work). We measured wrist angular velocity, mean power frequency (MPF) and range of motion (ROM). We es
The failure of pancreatic isletβ-cells is a major contributor to the etiology of type 2 diabetes.β-Cell dysfunction and declining β-cell mass are two mechanisms that contribute to this failure, although it is unclear whether they are molecularly linked. Here, we show that the cell cycle regulator, cyclin-dependent kinase 2 (CDK2), couples primary β-cell dysfunction to the progressive deterioration
Incorrect analysis results that are close to expected might not be recognized in scientific studies or routine patient care. In two field studies we obtained unexpected results in a large number of samples. The present study aimed to identify the source of error in the samples from these studies and to validate a method to obtain correct results. Pre-analytical procedures were scrutinized, giving
Large carnivores elicit strong emotional reactions, which could influence consensus or social conflicts between persons promoting wildlife conservation and people who suffer from its negative consequences. Interventions to prevent carnivore attacks on domestic animals are intended to promote coexistence between people and carnivores, but could fail to mitigate fear and social conflicts if emotions
We present 783 surgical resections of typical and atypical carcinoid tumors of the lung identified in the pathology files of 20 different pathology departments. All cases were critically reviewed for clinical and pathological features and further correlated with clinical outcomes. Long-term follow-up was obtained in all the patients and statistically analyzed to determine significance of the diffe
The genetic basis of the differences in female pheromone blend ratio and male behavioral response in the turnip moth, Agrotis segetum, was examined by crossing individuals derived from Scandinavian and Zimbabwean populations. These two populations differ both in the ratio of the three major female pheromone components. Z5-10:OAc, Z7-12: OAc, and Z9-14: OAc and in the behavioral response of the mal
Before commissioning of a nuclear facility it is important to determine the baseline of the radiation environment. Such baseline or Zero Point assessments can only,and uniquely, be made before start of operation of the facility and will serve several purposes when the facility is in operation. Here we report on the planning and implementation of such a Zero P
Despite the large scientific interest on robot learning forobject picking tasks, the research on object placingis too limited. Commonly, placing is simplistically consideredas a trivial task, but real life manipulation problems indicatethe exact opposite. A placing task can have different levels ofcomplexity, ranging from the simplest tabletop placing of anobject, to more complex cases such as loa
Previous reports showed that nontypeable Haemophilus influenzae (NTHi) reside in macrophage-like cells in human adenoid tissue. This study investigated the ability of nonopsonized NTHi and encapsulated H. influenzae type b (Hib) to enter human monocytic and epithelial cells. The number of intracellular bacteria was determined by a viability assay and flow cytometry. To characterize the mechanisms
In many European universities, English is today used as a medium of instruction. One of the reasons is that it is believed that using English as a medium of instruction (EMI) can develop students’ subject-specific knowledge of English. This knowledge is seen as an asset in the workplace and often presented as providing a competitive advantage supporting professional success. The design of many edu

Vår hud är hem för en stor grupp av mikroorganismer, hudens mikroflora, som påverkar vår hälsa och vårt välbefinnande. Ändå finns det många aspekter av detta ämne som ännu är outforskade. Detta projekt syftade till att optimera en metod för analys av hudens mikroflora och effekten av hudvårdsprodukter på hudens mikroflora, från provtagning och provberedning till analys med kvantitativ polymeraskedOur skin is home to a vast community of microorganisms, the skin micro flora, which affect our health and well-being. Yet, there are many aspects of this topic that are still unexplored. This project aimed to optimize a method for analysis of the skin micro flora and the effect of skin care products on the skin micro flora, from sampling and sample preparation to analysis with quantitative polymer
Aim: To evaluate the impact of initial mono- versus multitherapy on the ocular surface and related quality of life after 5 years follow-up in the Glaucoma Intensive Treatment Study (GITS). Method: The study included patients with primary open-angle glaucoma and pseudoexfoliation glaucoma who completed 5-year follow-up in GITS. Assessment of ocular surface disease (OSD) symptoms was done using a Sw
This study investigates whether a genderless second language (L2; English) reshapes grammatical gender (GG) effects derived from two gendered first languages (L1s; Ukrainian and Russian) in multilinguals. Previous work showed that when GG aligns across these L1s, it influences categorisation and recall of multilinguals, whereas mismatching L1s yield effects from the more proficient L1 only on cate
