RESUMO
For several years, reports have been published about fluctuations in measured radioactive decay time-series and in some instances linked to astrophysical as well as classical environmental influences. Anomalous behaviors of radioactive decay measurement and measurement of capacitance inside and outside a modified Faraday cage were documented by our group in previous work. In the present report, we present an in-depth analysis of our measurement with regard to possible correlations with space weather, i.e. the geomagnetic activity (GMA) and cosmic-ray activity (CRA). Our analysis revealed that the decay and capacitance time-series are statistically significantly correlated with GMA and CRA when specific conditions are met. The conditions are explained in detail and an outlook is given on how to further investigate this important finding. Our discovery is relevant for all researchers investigating radioactive decay measurements since they point out that the space weather condition during the measurement is relevant for partially explaining the observed variability.
RESUMO
El síndrome SAPHO está constituido por la asociación de alteraciones musculoesqueléticas y alteraciones dermatológicas. Presentamos el caso de un varón de 35 años que cumple criterios de síndrome SAPHO. Aunque el tratamiento de estos pacientes aún no está claro, es importante hacer el diagnóstico del síndrome SAPHO para realizar las investigaciones necesarias e instaurar el tratamiento. El término es un acrónimo de las manifestaciones más frecuentes: sinovitis, acné, pustulosis palmo-plantar, hiperostosis y osteítis (AU)
The SAPHO syndrome describes an association between musculoskeletal disorders and various dermatological conditions. We report the case of a 35-years-old man who fulfilled the criteria for SAPHO. Although the optimal treatment for these patients remains unclear, it is important to make the diagnosis of SAPHO to avoid unnecessary investigations and treatment. SAPHO is an acronym of the combination of synovitis, acne, pustulosis, hyperostosis, and osteitis (AU)
