A search for diphoton events with large missing transverse energy is presented. The data were collected with the ATLAS detector in proton-proton collisions at root s = 7 TeV at the CERN Large Hadron Collider and correspond to an integrated luminosity of 3: 1 pb(-1). No excess of such events is observed above the standard model background prediction. In the context of a specific model with one univ
The aim of this prospective substudy was to estimate the cost-effectiveness of treating paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF) with radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFA) compared with antiarrhythmic drugs (AADs) as first-line treatment.
The first measurement of neutron emission in electromagnetic dissociation of Pb-208 nuclei at the LHC is presented. The measurement is performed using the neutron zero degree calorimeters of the ALICE experiment, which detect neutral particles close to beam rapidity. The measured cross sections of single and mutual electromagnetic dissociation of Pb nuclei at root s(NN) = 2.76 TeV with neutron emi
Objective. To compare results of obese patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA) who, after an intensive weight loss regimen, received 1 year of either dietary support (D), a knee-exercise program (E), or "no attention" (C; control group). Methods. We conducted a randomized, 2-phase, parallel-group trial. A total of 192 obese participants with knee OA were enrolled; the mean age was 62.5 years and 81
The ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider is used to search for high-mass resonances decaying to dielectron or dimuon final states. Results are presented from an analysis of proton-proton (pp) collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 8 TeV corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 20.3 fb(-1) in the dimuon channel. A narrow resonance with Standard Model Z couplings to fermions is excluded
A search is performed for flavour-changing neutral currents in the decay of a top quark to an up-type (c, u) quark and a Higgs boson, where the Higgs boson decays to two photons. The proton-proton collision data set used corresponds to 4.7 fb(-1) at root s = 7TeV and 20.3 fb(-1) at root s = 8TeV collected by the ATLAS experiment at the LHC. Top quark pair events are searched for in which one top q
Consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages has been shown, largely in American populations, to increase type 2 diabetes incidence. We aimed to evaluate the association of consumption of sweet beverages (juices and nectars, sugar-sweetened soft drinks and artificially sweetened soft drinks) with type 2 diabetes incidence in European adults. We established a case-cohort study including 12,403 incident
We determined whether single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) previously associated with diabetogenic traits improve the discriminative power of a type 2 diabetes genetic risk score. Participants (n = 2,751) were genotyped for 73 SNPs previously associated with type 2 diabetes, fasting glucose/insulin concentrations, obesity or lipid levels, from which five genetic risk scores (one for each of the

Since 2019, Icelanders can self-determine their legal gender. A third “neutral” option was also added. However, formulations in the Act allow only one self-determined change (Act on Gender Autonomy, 2019). Research on self-determination of legal gender has shown how acts can have limited effects since legal change is insufficient in addressing injustice. The separation of medical and legal concern
The purpose of this study is to contribute to the understanding of how software engineers’ identification and motivation are impacted in both the post-Covid and post-acquisition business setting. Further we aim to discover how software engineers typically think in relation to motivation and identification. This research contributes to literature on software engineers in relation to organizational
In the rapidly evolving telecommunications industry, customer retention is crucial for maintaining profitability. This report investigates the performance of various machine learning models in predicting customer churn rates, which are integral to calculating Customer Lifetime Value (CLV). The focus is on a comparative analysis of several models including logistic regression, ridge regression, las
The term self-determination is embedded in much difficulty. It is a term whose meaning has developed considerably from its first intended usage. Today, in a world that is in several respects becoming smaller and more conformed, certain peoples claim rights they have previously not been granted in order to protect their subsistence and preserve their culture. The Sami is one of these peoples. This
Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: Havsnivåförändringar på södra Grönland. Den globala havsnivån har förändrats under den nuvarande mellanistiden främst på grund av fördelningen av vatten mellan hav och glaciärer. Den relativa havsnivån på södra Grönland påverkas också till stor del av jordskorpans anpassning till storleken på det grönländska istäcket. I denna studie presenteras en ny strandförUntil recently there have only been a few observations of relative sea-level change from the inner Bredefjord area in southern Greenland. Here a new sea-level curve is presented from the Tasiusaq area based on data mainly from a sediment sequence from a marine embayment. Sea-level changes can be recorded in sediments as changed chemical composition, physical properties and macrofossil content. Iso
The observational relationship between obesity and periodontitis is widely known, yet causal evidence is lacking. Our objective was to investigate causal associations between periodontitis and body mass index (BMI).
Lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) in men with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) are associated with erectile dysfunction. Alpha-1-adrenoceptor antagonists are effective drugs for treating symptomatic BPH. Clinical data show improvements in LUTS by phosphodiesterase 5 inhibitors. This study aimed to evaluate effects of silodosin, a highly selective α1A-adrenoceptor antagonist, alone or in combin
In-situ, quasi-continuous measurements of atmospheric hydrogen (H-2) have been performed since October 2007 at the Cabauw tall tower station in the Netherlands. Mole fractions of H-2, CO and several greenhouse gases are determined simultaneously in air sampled successively at four heights, between 20 and 200 m above ground level. Rn-222 measurements are performed in air sampled at 20 and 200 m. Th
