Forskningsöversikt (refereegranskat)abstract
- We report on the final electroweak measurements performed with data taken at the Z resonance by the experiments operating at the electron-positron colliders SLC and LEP. The data consist of 17 million Z decays accumulated by the ALEPH, DELPHI, L3 and OPAL experiments at LEP, and 600 thousand Z decays by the SLID experiment using a polarised beam at SLC. The measurements include cross-sections, forward-backward asymmetries and polarised asymmetries. The mass and width of the Z boson, m(Z) and Gamma(Z), and its couplings to fermions, for example the p parameter and the effective electroweak mixing angle for leptons, are precisely measured: m(Z) = 91.1875 +/- 0.0021 GeV, Gamma(Z) = 2.4952 +/- 0.0023 GeV, rho(l) = 1.0050 +/- 0.0010, sin(2)theta(eff)(lept) = 0.23153 +/- 0.00016. The number of light neutrino species is determined to be 2.9840 +/- 0.0082, in agreement with the three observed generations of fundamental fermions. The results are compared to the predictions of the Standard Model (SM). At the Z-pole, electroweak radiative corrections beyond the running of the QED and QCD coupling constants are observed with a significance of five standard deviations, and in agreement with the Standard Model. Of the many Z-pole measurements, the forward-backward asymmetry in b-quark production shows the largest difference with respect to its SM expectation, at the level of 2.8 standard deviations. Through radiative corrections evaluated in the framework of the Standard Model, the Z-pole data are also used to predict the mass of the top quark, m(t) = 173(+10)(+13) GeV, and the mass of the W boson, m(W) = 80.363 +/- 0.032 GeV. These indirect constraints are compared to the direct measurements, providing a stringent test of the SM. Using in addition the direct measurements of m(t) and m(W), the mass of the as yet unobserved SM Higgs boson is predicted with a relative uncertainty of about 50% and found to be less than 285 GeV at 95% confidence level.

- The WASA 4 pi multidetector system, aimed at investigating light meson production in light ion collisions and eta meson rare decays at the CELSIUS storage ring in Uppsala is presented. A unique feature of the system is the use of hydrogen pellets as internal targets for the first time. A detailed description of the design, together with the anticipated and achieved performance parameters are given. (C) 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

- ObjectivemiRNAs are small non-coding RNAs that control gene expression. Specific intra- and extracellular miRNA signatures have been identified in various diseases. Whether certain miRNA signatures are associated with psoriasis (PsO) and PsA is currently unknown. We aimed to search for circulating miRNA signatures associated with PsO and PsA patients.MethodsExpression of miRNAs was analysed by reverse transcription quantitative real-time PCR (RT-qPCR) in the serum of PsA, PsO patients and healthy controls. Demographic and disease-specific characteristics and imaging data from hand MRI were recorded. In the discovery phase, 192 miRNA assays were analysed in 48 samples (PsA, PsO, controls: each N = 16). For validation, 17 selected miRNAs were measured in the total population.ResultsA total of 141 patients and controls were analysed (51 PsA, 40 PsO, 50 controls). In the discovery phase 51 miRNAs in PsO and 64 miRNAs in PsA were down- or upregulated compared with controls, with 33 miRNAs being changed in both (adj. P < 0.05). The 17 top candidates from discovery were assessed in the validation phase, 9 of them discriminated PsA and PsO from controls [area under the curve (AUC) ≥0.70, all P < 0.05]. Four miRNAs (miR-19b-3p, miR-21-5p, miR-92a-3p and let-7b-5p) were significantly differently regulated between PsO and PsA. A combination of these miRNAs increased the AUC to 0.92 in multivariate regression model to discriminate PsO and PsA.ConclusionmiRNA signatures in PsA and PsO patients differ from controls. Nine miRNAs were differentially regulated in PsA and PsO patients, five of them previously reported to be involved in bone and cartilage metabolism, indicating an intimate association of psoriatic inflammation and bone/cartilage changes.
