ANTARES : The first undersea neutrino telescope
- 2011

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The ANTARES Neutrino Telescope was completed in May 2008 and is the first operational Neutrino Telescope in the Mediterranean Sea. The main purpose of the detector is to perform neutrino astronomy and the apparatus also offers facilities for marine and Earth sciences. This paper describes the design, the construction and the installation of the telescope in the deep sea, offshore from Toulon in France. An illustration of the detector performance is given.

The IceCube Neutrino Observatory : instrumentation and online systems
- 2017
-
In: Journal of Instrumentation. - : IOP PUBLISHING LTD. - 1748-0221. ; 12
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The IceCube Neutrino Observatory is a cubic-kilometer-scale high-energy neutrino detector built into the ice at the South Pole. Construction of IceCube, the largest neutrino detector built to date, was completed in 2011 and enabled the discovery of high-energy astrophysical neutrinos. We describe here the design, production, and calibration of the IceCube digital optical module (DOM), the cable systems, computing hardware, and our methodology for drilling and deployment. We also describe the online triggering and data filtering systems that select candidate neutrino and cosmic ray events for analysis. Due to a rigorous pre-deployment protocol, 98.4% of the DOMs in the deep ice are operating and collecting data. IceCube routinely achieves a detector uptime of 99% by emphasizing software stability and monitoring. Detector operations have been stable since construction was completed, and the detector is expected to operate at least until the end of the next decade.

Genome-wide interaction analysis of menopausal hormone therapy use and breast cancer risk among 62,370 women
- 2022

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Use of menopausal hormone therapy (MHT) is associated with increased risk for breast cancer. However, the relevant mechanisms and its interaction with genetic variants are not fully understood. We conducted a genome-wide interaction analysis between MHT use and genetic variants for breast cancer risk in 27,585 cases and 34,785 controls from 26 observational studies. All women were post-menopausal and of European ancestry. Multivariable logistic regression models were used to test for multiplicative interactions between genetic variants and current MHT use. We considered interaction p-values < 5 x 10(-8) as genome-wide significant, and p-values < 1 x 10(-5) as suggestive. Linkage disequilibrium (LD)-based clumping was performed to identify independent candidate variants. None of the 9.7 million genetic variants tested for interactions with MHT use reached genome-wide significance. Only 213 variants, representing 18 independent loci, had p-values < 1 x 10(5). The strongest evidence was found for rs4674019 (p-value = 2.27 x 10(-7)), which showed genome-wide significant interaction (p-value = 3.8 x 10(-8)) with current MHT use when analysis was restricted to population-based studies only. Limiting the analyses to combined estrogen-progesterone MHT use only or to estrogen receptor (ER) positive cases did not identify any genome-wide significant evidence of interactions. In this large genome-wide SNP-MHT interaction study of breast cancer, we found no strong support for common genetic variants modifying the effect of MHT on breast cancer risk. These results suggest that common genetic variation has limited impact on the observed MHT-breast cancer risk association.

The impact of tumour angiogenesis, p53 overexpression and proliferative activity (MIB-1) on survival in squamous cervical carcinoma.
- 1997
-
In: European Journal of Cancer. - 0959-8049 .- 1879-0852. ; 33:11, s. 1799-1804
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Tumour angiogenesis (antifactor VIII-related antigen antibody), p53 overexpression (DO-1) and proliferative activity (MIB-1) were immunohistochemically analysed for the prediction of long-term survival in 113 patients with squamous cervical carcinoma. The median follow-up time was 82 months (range 72-99). In early stages (IB-IIA), neovascularisation was significantly related to tumour size. Significantly more patients in stage IIA had high tumour vascularity compared to stage IB (P < 0.01) but no significant difference was found between early and advanced stages (IIB-IVB) of cervical carcinoma. p53 overexpression was correlated to the stage of disease (P < 0.01). No relationship was found between tumour angiogenesis, p53 overexpression or MIB-1 and pelvic lymph node metastases, histological subtype or differentiation. Tumours with more than 50% p53 overexpression was significantly correlated with survival in the univariate analysis, but no independent predictive value was found. It is concluded that immunohistochemically detectable p53 overexpression as measured by DO-1 and proliferative activity as measured by MIB-1 seems of no clinical value for the prediction of long-term survival in squamous cervical carcinoma. The predictive value of tumour angiogenesis for survival outcome has still to be determined in squamous cervical carcinoma.

Performance of the first ANTARES detector line
- 2009

In: Astroparticle physics. - : Elsevier BV. - 0927-6505 .- 1873-2852. ; 31:4, s. 277-283

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- In this paper we report on the data recorded with the first Antares detector line. The line was deployed on the 14th of February 2006 and was connected to the readout 2 weeks later. Environmental data for one and a half years of running are shown. Measurements of atmospheric muons from data taken from selected runs during the first 6 months of operation are presented. Performance figures in terms of time residuals and angular resolution are given. Finally the angular distribution of atmospheric muons is presented and from this the depth profile of the muon intensity is derived. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
