We report on the evolution with the magnetic field and the temperature of the vortex lattice (VL) in fully oxygenated YBa2Cu3O7 as studied by time-of-flight small-angle neutron scattering. Using the High Field Magnet/Extreme Environment Diractometer beamline at Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin, we have obtained data up to 25.9 T - much higher than data available previously. Our VL structure results are co

OBJECTIVE: To examine the hypothesis that survival in esophageal cancer increases with more removed lymph nodes during esophagectomy up to a plateau, after which it levels out or even decreases with further lymphadenectomy.SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA: There is uncertainty regarding the ideal extent of lymphadenectomy during esophagectomy to optimize long-term survival in esophageal cancer.METHODS: Thi
BACKGROUND: Resection is the cornerstone of curative treatment for many nonmetastatic gastric cancers (GCs), but the population treatment patterns remains largely unknown. This large international population-based study aimed at investigating the treatment patterns and trends for nonmetastatic GC in Europe and the United States and at exploring factors associated with resection.METHODS: Data of pa
BACKGROUND: Only around one-quarter of patients with cancer of the oesophagus and the gastro-oesophageal junction (GOJ) undergo surgical resection. This population-based study investigated the rates of treatment with curative intent and resection, and their association with survival.METHODS: Patients diagnosed with oesophageal and GOJ cancer between 2006 and 2015 in Sweden were identified from the
Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is characterised by defective insulin exocytosis from the pancreatic β cells, accompanied by insulin resistance. Reduced β cells mass is often seen in T2D individuals, caused by enhanced β cells apoptosis. It is now understood that several components drive β cells dysfunction and apoptosis. These are glucose-and lipo-toxicity, ER stress, pro-inflammatory cytokines, dysfunctio
This chapter discusses recent debates on the development of a spatial methodology in the study of diasporic religions and its use in research on minority religious communities, their transnational dimensions and their place and role in public life. These contributions are used to understand the multiple spatial layers in which transnational religious networks are located and to question some of th
Due to its colonial past, Ireland has often been described as an exceptional state in Western Europe. The discourse of Irish exceptionalism also suggests a smoother path of integration for Muslim migrants compared to other Western European countries. Apart form providing an overview of Muslim immigration to the Republic of Ireland in the last 20 years, the paper critically engages with the discour
The chapter provides an overview of the development of the Muslim presence in Western Europe focussing on the period after World War II. The discussion deals with the experiences of Muslims in 19 countries which were located West of the “iron curtain” during the Cold War era (1946/1947–1989) and were therefore integrated in the capitalist world order and politically aligned with the USA. Beginning

With the revival of the Ni‘matullāhī Order in late eighteenth-century Iran, the confrontation between uṣūlī ‘ulamā’ and Sufis gained new momentum. While the relationship between official Iranian Shiism and organized Sufism had been strained since the rise of the Safavids, the firm establishment of uṣūlism among Shii ‘ulamā’ and the Sufi revival in the late eighteenth century initiated a polemical
How to approach the complex intellectual legacy of a modern Muslim thinker like Muhammad ‘Abduh (1849-1905)? This book offers an answer to this question by providing a new complete intellectual biography of him. It delineates ‘Abduh’s formation as a reformer and activist and embeds his varied intellectual contributions in a culture of ambiguity which has marked the intellectual life of Muslim soci
