Explanation:
See reference with list of abbreviations used in Swedish medical journals.
r/t is short for "relaterat till"

response/time


Explanation:
If the context was indicated, it would have helped.

room temperature


Explanation:
Another possibility, depending on the context. Room temperature is usually abbreviated RT in English, but I have seen RT, rt and r/t for the Swedish term rumstemperatur.
