Let G be a finite group. We show that the order of the subgroup generated by coprime γk-commutators (respectively,δk- commutators) is bounded in terms of the size of the set of coprime γk-commutators (respectively, δk-commutators). This is in parallel with the classical theorem due to Turner-Smith that the words γk and δk are concise.

During the last two decades our understanding of human B cell differentiation has developed considerably. Our understanding of the human B cell compartment has advanced from a point where essentially all assays were based on the presence or not of class-switched antibodies to a level where a substantial diversity is appreciated among the cells involved. Several consecutive transitional stages that

In past human populations, atherosclerosis has been identified in mummies from different regions of the world, and from a range of chronological periods (for extensive reviews see Chapters 3 and 4). This current study from Sweden aims to contribute to the limited evidence for atherosclerosis associated with human skeletal remains by presenting examples of atherosclerosis in another part of the bod

This book investigates the activities undertaken by the variety of actors that contribute to accomplishing cultural policy in Europe. These range from policy formulation and administration at the national and local levels, to artistic and cultural production activities to institutional governance.

In recent years Genuine Savings (GS) has emerged as an indicator of weak sustainability and predictor of socio-economic well-being. This paper presents the first long-term GS estimates for Norway, covering the period from 1865 until 2018. The preliminary results indicate unsustainable development throughout most of the period leading up to the Second World War and positive GS since 1946, with a si

Purpose/Background: Appendectomy is the standard treatment of acute appendicitis (AA) but conservative treatment has gained success. The need for follow-up after conservatively treated AA is unclear. Hypothesis/Aim: This study evaluates follow-up, recurrence and appendiceal malignancy in conservatively treated AA. Methods/Interventions: This retrospective study included patients with conservativel
