A search for new phenomena is presented in final states with two leptons and one or no b-tagged jets. The event selection requires the two leptons to have opposite charge, the same flavor (electrons or muons), and a large invariant mass. The analysis is based on the full run-2 proton-proton collision dataset recorded at a center-of-mass energy of s=13 TeV by the ATLAS experiment at the LHC, corres

CONTEXT: The epidemiological signature of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) during the past decades is explained by overdetection and overtreatment of indolent cancers; furthermore, a non-negligible proportion of patients undergoing surgery for suspected RCC harbour benign renal tumours. As the gold standard for RCC diagnosis remains histopathological analysis of surgical or biopsy specimens, implementat

Based on high-resolution spectra obtained during gravitational microlensing events we present a detailed elemental abundance analysis of 32 dwarf and subgiant stars in the Galactic bulge. Combined with the sample of 26 stars from the previous papers in this series, we now have 58 microlensed bulge dwarfs and subgiants that have been homogeneously analysed. The main characteristics of the sample an

We present noble gas analyses of sediment-dispersed extraterrestrial chromite grains recovered from similar to 470 Myr old sediments from two quarries (Hallekis and Thorsberg) and of relict chromites in a coeval fossil meteorite from the Gullhogen quarry, all located ill Southern Sweden. Both the sediment-dispersed grains and the meteorite Gullhogen 001 were generated in the L-chondrite parent bod

The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and the estrogen receptor (ER) modulator Amplified In Breast cancer-1 (AIB1) have been reported to be of importance for the prognosis of breast cancer patients. We have analyzed AIB1 and EGFR by immunohistochemistry in primary breast cancers (n = 297) arranged in a tissue microarray in order to predict outcome after adjuvant endocrine therapy with tamoxi

It is debated whether cancer patients treated with chemotherapy can mount an adequate response to vaccination. Material and methods. Ninety-six adult outpatients with cancer, who were undergoing chemotherapy and/or monoclonal antibody, tyrosine kinase inhibitor, irradiation or corticosteroid treatments, were studied. Two doses of the pandemic influenza A(H1N1)/09 AS03-adjuvanted split virion vacci

A search is performed for localized excesses in the low-mass dijet invariant mass distribution, targeting a hypothetical new particle decaying into two jets and produced in association with either a high transverse momentum photon or a jet. The search uses the full Run 2 data sample from LHC proton-proton collisions collected by the ATLAS experiment at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV during 2015

Accessible housing plays a crucial role in supporting aging in place, yet Japan lacks adequate tools for assessing housing accessibility among older adults. This study describes the process of translating and adapting the environmental component checklist of the Swedish Housing Enabler instrument for valid use in Japan. During translation to the Japanese language, technical terms and specification

Background: There is no consensus or clinical guidelines for screening routines of autoimmune disease in individuals with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA), since results are conflicting whether the risk for such conditions is increased or not among individuals with JIA. The aim of this study was to investigate if the frequency of comorbid autoimmune conditions is increased after JIA diagnosis i

Understanding the structure-property relationship in electrocatalysts under working conditions is crucial for the rational design of novel and improved catalytic materials. This paper presents the Aarhus University reactor for electrochemical studies using X-rays (AUREX) operando electrocatalytic flow cell, designed as an easy-To-use versatile setup with a minimal background contribution and a uni

Changing rainfall patterns make farmers increasingly vulnerable to crop failure, income loss and food insecurity. Agroecology is proposed to reduce climate vulnerabilities of farmers, as such practices and social movement aim to create more resilient farm and food systems. It is however fairly unknown if, and to what extent, agroecological farmers are better able to cope with climate induced expos

Objective: The objectives were to determine the prevalence of meeting criteria for symptoms suggestive of early osteoarthritis (OA) after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) and to characterize the longitudinal changes in these symptoms during the first two years post-ACLR. Methods: We analyzed data from 10,231 patients aged 14 to 40 years in the New Zealand ACL Registry who completed

OBJECTIVES: To explore broadened entry criteria of the 2021 European Resuscitation Council/European Society of Intensive Care Medicine (ERC/ ESICM) algorithm for neuroprognostication including patients with ongoing sedation and Glasgow Coma Scale-Motor score (GCS-M) scores 4–5. DESIGN: Retrospective multicenter observational study. SETTING: Four ICUs, Skane, Sweden. PATIENTS: Postcardiac arrest pa

People with intellectual disabilities commonly experience violent, abusive, and restrictive contexts, particularly those who are at risk of behaviours that challenge, behaviours that often are a sign of trauma, fear, pain, and loss of power. For example, the use of physical restraint and psychotropic medication to manage behaviours labelled as challenging is prevalent in services for people with i

Objective: To screen a general pediatric population for type 1 diabetes (T1D), celiac disease (CD), and autoimmune thyroid disease (AITD) after home capillary sampling. Methods: Swedish schoolchildren between 6–9 years and 13–16 years of age were invited to screening by taking a capillary sample at home. Samples were returned by mail and assessed for autoantibodies associated with T1D, CD, and AIT

Non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide, with ~40–50% of patients diagnosed with non-metastatic disease (stages IA–IIIC). The treatment landscape is evolving rapidly as immunotherapies and targeted therapy are introduced in the non-metastatic setting, creating a need to assess patient outcomes prior to their introduction. This real-world study usin

In order to meet the wishes of Lund University management to showcase and display the work conducted in relation to the UN Sustainable Development Goals, the management of Lund's Pure installation has undertaken a project. The direct use of automatic tagging of SDGs turned out to be insufficient, so we devised a number of steps to utilize the data in a controlled manner. This includes a general me
