In 1990, a retrospective case control study was performed based on all patients with tibial shaft fractures (n = 767) treated at the Department of Orthopaedics in Malmö 1949-1963. At the time of the study 231 of the patients were still living in Malmö . All radiographic examinations of this latter group from the time of the fracture to 1990 were studied and the occurrence of osteoarthrosis (OA) of

Based on all patients with tibial shaft fracture (n = 767) treated in the department of orthopedics in Malmö from 1955 to 1963, a retrospective cohort study was performed in 1990. Two hundred sixty-nine of the patients were still living in Malmö or had died in the city. Since all roentgenograms were available, all other fractures that this group of patients had sustained up to 1990 were included.

We analyzed the metaphyseal-diaphyseal angle in 13 patients with infantile Blount's disease, who had been followed without treatment during the entire growth period and without any form of realignment procedure in adulthood. On diagnosis at 23 (17-35) months of age, the metaphyseal-diaphyseal angle varied between 7°and 25°. At follow-up, most of the legs were almost straight. We found that the dia

The paper accounts for the extent to which gender research is represented in leading archaeological journals throughout the 1980s to the present through the database Arts & Humanities Citation Index (ISI). The paper regards gender research as including gender, feminisms, masculinities,queer, intersectionality and embodiment. It is concluded that gender research, despite its alleged significanc

The global agri-food system accounts for about 37% of total annual greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, and the agri-food Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) share is quite significant. Therefore, it has created an urgency for GHG reporting and management improvements. However, most tools available for GHG accounting are complex to utilize and expensive for SMEs to access. The methodology adopted in th

A review of Naeem Mohaiemen's solo exhibition "What we found after you left" at The Power Plant Contemporary Art Gallery in Toronto, Canada.

In a recent population-based study, an elevated risk of the Metabolic syndrome (MetS) and type 2 diabetes was found in childless men compared to those who have fathered one or more children. Therefore, by using a larger cohort of more than 22 000 men from the Malmo Preventive Project (MPP) we aimed to expand our observations in order to evaluate the metabolic profile of childless men and to evalua

Understanding the coupling of nitrogen (N) and carbon (C) cycles of land ecosystems requires understanding microbial element use efficiencies of soil organic matter (SOM) decomposition. Whereas important controls of those efficiencies by microbial community adaptations have been shown at the scale of a soil pore, a simplified representation of those controls is needed at the ecosystem scale. Howev

Surgical approach with reduction pulmonary artery plasty and valved conduit in patients with respiratory compromise prior to repair is associated with excellent long-term survival at the cost of a higher reintervention rate. OBJECTIVES: Absent pulmonary valve syndrome is a rare congenital heart defect with pulmonary artery dilatation and secondary airway compression. Although preoperative respirat
