What does this notation ($Y = \mathrm dx$) in probability mean?

I'm reading this research article and can't seem to understand what this notation mean, $P(T = i) = \int P(X>x)P(Y = \mathrm dx) $ where $T$, $X$, $Y$ are all obviously random variables. Irrespective of their particular definition, what would a RV equal to $\mathrm dx$ possibly mean ?
