Background: Perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are suggested to affect human fecundity through longer time to pregnancy (TTP). We studied the relationship between four abundant PFAS and TTP in pregnant women from Greenland, Poland and Ukraine representing varying PFAS exposures and pregnancy planning behaviors. Methods: We measured serum levels of perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA), perfluorooctane sulfo

In Nampula province, Mozambique, there is a high number of water wells considered as having failed for having too low a pumping yield. Two Electrical Resistivity Tomography (ERT) measurement campaigns were conducted in the area for evaluating the reasons of failures. However, in some cases it was difficult to verify and interpret the ERT results by only using the inadequate lithological descriptio

Pre-treatment serum levels of sCD163 were measured in a cohort of 236 suspected tuberculosis (TB) cases from Guinea-Bissau, with a median follow-up period of 3.3 years (range 0-6.4 years). In 113 cases, the diagnosis of TB was verified by positive sputum microscopy and/or culture. Among the verified TB cases, a decreased survival rate was found in 27 patients with sCD163 levels above the upper ref

Background: Presence of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) is a validated prognostic marker in metastatic breast cancer. Additional prognostic information may be obtained by morphologic characterization of CTCs. We explored whether apoptotic CTCs, CTC clusters and leukocytes attached to CTCs are associated with breast cancer subtype and prognosis at base-line (BL) and in follow-up (FU) blood samples i

Hadronic events from the data collected with the DELPHI detector at LEP within the energy range from 89 GeV to 209 GeV are selected, their jet rates are determined and compared to predictions of four different event generators. One of them is the recently developed APACIC++ generator which performs a massive matrix element calculation matched to a parton shower followed by string fragmentation. Th

29 januari 2026 18:00 | Konsert What are instrumentalists good for? In a world increasingly dominated by electronic sound production and the artistic supremacy of the composer or director, what agency do performers of acoustic instruments have to offer any more? In this lecture recital, Jack Adler-McKean, PostDoc at Malmö Academy of Music, explores these questions as he concludes his post-doctorat

One of the most important processes for the groundwater environment is macroscopic dispersion in geological media. In this study, laboratory experiments and numerical simulations are carried out in order to understand the transport of a non-reactive tracer in a heterogeneous porous medium. The method of characteristics and the implicit finite difference method are employed for numerical solutions

This paper suggests a stochastic volatility term-structure model applied to the pricing of electricity swaptions in the Nord Pool market. The volatility structure in the model is specified as a product of a time-dependent function that handles the maturity effect, and a Cox-Ingersoll-Ross process that captures the volatility smile. We employ a Fourier based approach to price electricity swaptions
