Survival of European patients diagnosed with lymphoid neoplasms in 2000-2002: results of the HAEMACARE project

The European Cancer Registry-based project on hematologic malignancies (HAEMACARE), set up to improve the availability and standardization of data on hematologic malignancies in Europe, used the European Cancer Registry-based project on survival and care of cancer patients (EUROCARE-4) database to produce a new grouping of hematologic neoplasma(defined by the International Classification of Diseases for Oncology, Third Edition and the 2001/2008 World Health Organization classifications) for epidemiological and public health purposes. We analyzed survival for lymphoid neoplasms in Europe by disease group, comparing survival between different European regions by age and sex. Design and Methods Incident neoplasms recorded between 1995 to 2002 in 48 population-based cancer registries in 20 countries participating in EUROCARE-4 were analyzed. The period approach was used to estimate 5-year relative survival rates for patients diagnosed in 2000-2002, who did not have 5 years of follow up. Results: The 5-year relative survival rate was 57% overall but varied markedly between the defined groups. Variation in survival within the groups was relatively limited across European regions and less than in previous years. Survival differences between men and women were small. The relative survival for patients with all lymphoid neoplasms decreased substantially after the age of 50. The proportion of ‘not otherwise specified’ diagnoses increased with advancing age.Conclusions: This is the first study to analyze survival of patients with lymphoid neoplasms, divided into groups characterized by similar epidemiological and clinical characteristics, providing a benchmark for more detailed analyses. This Europe-wide study suggests that previously noted differences in survival between regions have tended to decrease. The survival of patients with all neoplasms decreased markedly with age, while the proportion of ‘not otherwise specified’ diagnoses increased with advancing age. Thus the quality of diagnostic work-up and care decreased with age, suggesting that older patients may not be receiving optimal treatment

Quaternary ammonium-functionalized silica sorbents for the solid-phase extraction of aromatic amines under normal phase conditions

Quaternary ammonium-functionalized silica materials were synthesized and applied for solid-phase extraction (SPE) of aromatic amines, which are classified as priority pollutants by US Environmental Protection Agency. Hexamethylenetetramine used for silica surface modification for the first time was employed as SPE sorbent under normal phase conditions. Hexaminium-functionalized silica demonstrated excellent extraction efficiencies for o-toluidine, 4-ethylaniline and quinoline (recoveries 101–107%), while for N,N-dimethylaniline and N-isopropylaniline recoveries were from low to moderate (14–46%). In addition, the suitability of 1-alkyl-3-(propyl-3-sulfonate) imidazolium-functionalized silica as SPE sorbent was tested under normal phase conditions. The recoveries achieved for the five aromatic amines ranged from 89 to 99%. The stability of the sorbent was evaluated during and after 150 extractions. Coefficients of variation between 4.5 and 10.2% proved a high stability of the synthesized sorbent. Elution was carried out using acetonitrile in the case of hexaminium-functionalized silica and water for 1-alkyl-3-(propyl-3-sulfonate) imidazolium-functionalized silica sorbent. After the extraction the analytes were separated and detected by liquid chromatography ultraviolet detection (LC-UV). The retention mechanism of the materials was primarily based on polar hydrogen bonding and π–π interactions. Comparison made with activated silica proved the quaternary ammonium-functionalized materials to offer different selectivity and better extraction efficiencies for aromatic amines. Finally, 1-alkyl-3-(propyl-3-sulfonate) imidazolium-functionalized silica sorbent was successfully tested for the extraction of wastewater and soil samples.

Saatana peilissä – 1990-luvun suomalainen saatananpalvontadiskurssi osana folklorea ja kollektiivista mielikuvamaailmaa

Tutkielman aihe on saatananpalvontadiskurssi 1990-luvun Suomessa, sen yhteydet folkloreen ja kollektiiviseen mielikuvamaailmaan (popular imagination), sekä sen rakentuminen ja leviäminen kansanomaisten asiantuntijoiden ja median avulla. Tutkielman ydinkysymykset ovat: mitä evankelikaaliseen aineistoon perustuva saatananpalvontadiskurssi sisältää, miten sitä on rakennettu ja levitetty ja miksi näin on tehty? Tutkimusaineistona ovat Pat Pullingin kirja Noidankehässä (1993), Marja-Liisa Huhdan Saatana kutsuu minua -videokasetti (1994), Riku Rinteen kirjat Syvyyden kuilusta (1994), Pimeys väistyy (1996), Varo Vihollinen! Jumalan pyörremyrsky on tulossa (1999), Keijo Ahorinnan kirja Saatananpalvonnan monet kasvot (1997), sekä lehtiartikkeleita 1990-luvulta. Tutkimuksessa käy ilmi, että evankelikaalisten toimijoiden luomia saatananpalvontatarinoita on levitetty, pidetty ajankohtaisena ja välitetty valtavirtamediaan itseoppineiden asiantuntijoiden toimesta. Kun valtavirtamedia on legitimoinut tarinat, ovat ne palautuneet evankelikaaliseen aineistoon todentuneina. Leviämistä ovat edesauttaneet evankelikaalisen aineiston ja median esittämien tarinoiden synnyttämät huhut, joiden johdosta saatananpalvontadiskurssi on alkanut elää kollektiivisessa mielikuvamaailmassa. Voidakseen levitä ja pysyä ajankohtaisina, tarinoiden tulee sisältää riittävän yksinkertaisia ja voimakkaita aineksia. Saatananpalvontadiskurssissa nämä vaatimukset toteutuvat erityisen selvästi. Saatananpalvoja on hahmona vahvasti kansanperinteen mukainen.

Navigating equality:religious young women's perceptions of gender and sexuality equality

Equality has become an important concept within secular-liberal societies (Perrons 2005), with white, secular Western women interpellated as quintessentially embodying this equality (Gill and Scharff 2011; McRobbie 2011; Nayak and Kehily 2008). For religious organizations, the interacting spaces of gender and sexuality constitute two of the most contested terrains in rights-giving, and many religions are seen as less progressive regarding equality vis-à-vis other social institutions (Plummer 2003; Tosh and Keenan 2003; Weeks2007). Young religious women have to articulate how they fit into the contours of secular-liberal equality norms as religious subjects. This chapter will focus on how young religious women living in the UK made sense of equality in the context of their religion, focusing on attitudes to gender equality and sexuality equality.
