- The long-term problems of head and neck cancer survivors (HNCS) are not well known. In a cross-sectional international study aimed at exploring the long-term quality of life in this population, 1114 HNCS were asked to state their two most serious long-term effects. A clinician recorded the responses during face-to-face appointments. A list of 15 example problems was provided, but a free text field was also available. A total of 1033 survivors responded to the question. The most frequent problems were 'dry mouth' (DM) (n = 476; 46%), 'difficulty swallowing/eating' (DSE) (n = 408; 40%), 'hoarseness/difficulty speaking' (HDS) (n = 169; 16%), and 'pain in the head and neck' (PHN) (n = 142; 14%). A total of 5% reported no problems. Logistic regression adjusted for age, gender, treatment, and tumor stage and site showed increased odds of reporting DM and DSE for chemo-radiotherapy (CRT) alone compared to surgery alone (odds ratio (OR): 4.7, 95% confidence interval (CI): 2.5-9.0; OR: 2.1, CI: 1.1-3.9), but decreased odds for HDS and PHN (OR: 0.3, CI: 0.1-0.6; OR: 0.2, CI: 0.1-0.5). Survivors with UICC stage IV at diagnosis compared to stage I had increased odds of reporting HDS (OR: 1.9, CI: 1.2-3.0). Laryngeal cancer survivors had reduced odds compared to oropharynx cancer survivors of reporting DM (OR: 0.4, CI: 0.3-0.6) but increased odds of HDS (OR: 7.2, CI: 4.3-12.3). This study provides evidence of the serious long-term problems among HNCS.

Key comparison EURAMET.L-K8.2013 calibration of surface roughness standards
- 2016

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The key comparison EURAMET.L-K8.2013 on roughness was carried out in the framework of a EURAMET project starting in 2013 and ending in 2015. It involved the participation of 17 National Metrology Institutes from Europe, Asia, South America and Africa representing four regional metrology organisations. Five surface texture standards of different type were circulated and on each of the standards several roughness parameters according to the standard ISO 4287 had to be determined. 32 out of 395 individual results were not consistent with the reference value. After some corrective actions the number of inconsistent results could be reduced to 20, which correspond to about 5% of the total and can statistically be expected. In addition to the material standards, two softgauges were circulated, which allow to test the software of the instruments used in the comparison. The comparison results help to support the calibraton and measurement capabilities (CMCs) of the laboratories involved in the CIPM MRA.

End-Permian marine ecosystem collapse was a direct consequence of deforestation: Evidence from the Kockatea Shale of the Perth Basin, Western Australia

- The end-Permian mass extinction event resulted in devastated continental biomes, desolated land, and toxic waters. Anoxia led to widespread extinctions in marine ecosystems, affecting most oceanic clades. In this paper, the palynofacies of the marine Kockatea Shale, Western Australia, was studied in drill cores Hovea-3 and Redback-2, with the aim of linking changes in the marine and continental realms across the Permian–Triassic boundary interval in Australia. We show that the post-extinction ‘Dead Zone’ of the Frazer Beach Member of the Sydney Basin, eastern Australia, whose base is dated to 252.10 ± 0.06 Ma, directly correlates to the lower part of the Kockatea Shale in the Perth Basin, the so-called Inertinitic Interval. We demonstrate that the extinction of Permian Glossopteris forests observed in the Perth Basin had an immediateimpact on the marine faunas due to the massive buildup of organic matter, leading to euxinia in the photic zone and ultimately pushing the marine faunas to an ecological extinction. The last lingering occurrence of marine invertebrates of Permian aspect occur in layers that may tentatively mark the Permian –Triassic boundary, positioned just below the appearance of Triassic floras of the Kraeuselisporites saeptatus Zone (equivalent to the Lunatisporites pellucidus Zone). A striking feature at the base of the Early Triassic Sapropelic Interval of the Hovea Member is the sudden and synchronous appearances of anomalously abundant acritarchs and lycophyte spores, alongside the mass occurrence of the bivalve Claraia, allowing correlation with the rise of the eastern Australian post-extinction pioneer floras in the Early Triassic. This demonstrates a significant lag time between the recovery of the terrestrial versus the marine pioneer biota in high-latitude Gondwana, with a significant delay for the faunal recovery.
