When a child is diagnosed with diabetes, the symptoms may be in its most severe form with ketoacidosis, to mild symptoms of diabetes, detected incidentally. Moderate and severe symptoms of diabetes presentation require infusion therapy and thereby necessitate hospitalisation for the first few days. The initial management is largely a preparation for family members to help them gain the practical u
Popular Abstract in Swedish Varje dag producerar vår kropp många miljarder nya blodceller. Dessa celler är livsnödvändiga för att många funktioner i kropp ska fungera. Exempelvis hjälper de till med att skydda oss från sjukdomar, läka skador, och med att transportera syre och avfallsämnen. Blodsystemet (det hematopoetiska systemet) är uppbyggt som en hierarki där hematopoetiska stamceller finns påIn the blood system, knowledge on the regulation of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and their immature progeny has provided roadmaps of differentiation. Such information can also have a value to understand the etiology of hematological cancers, since clinical heterogeneity and prognostic therapeutic outcomes have been proposed to associate with the specific developmental stage from which the trans
Evidence suggests that in addition to sequestering carbon (C), biochar amendment can increase crop yields, improve soil quality and nutrient cycling, reduce the leaching of nutrients from soil and stimulate soil microbial activity. However, biochar application primarily benefits soils of intrinsic poor quality, thus the advantages of adding biochar to temperate agricultural soils remains controver
1 We examined non-adrenergic, non-cholinergic (NANC) stimulation for its stabilizing effect on bronchial smooth-muscle tone with respect to its regulatory power and the effect of variations in neural impulse frequency. 2 The guinea-pig isolated main bronchus (n = 4-12) was pretreated with indomethacin (1O JAM) and incubated with atropine (1 pM) and guanethidine (10 JM). Electrical field stimulatio
Popular Abstract in Swedish Fetma räknas som ett av världens tio viktigaste hälsoproblem enligt WHO och ökar i snabb takt. Man beräknar att över 1 miljard av världens vuxna befolkning är överviktig, d.v.s. har ett kroppsmasseindex (BMI) ?25.0 kg/m², varav 300 miljoner är feta, d.v.s. har ett BMI ?30.0 kg/m². I Sverige är 38% av kvinnor och 58% av män mellan 25 och 64 år överviktiga, och 11% respekThe aim of this thesis was to study the morbidity and mortality of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in obese individuals, as measured by different obesity measurements, and to explore how the CVD risk related to obesity was modified by other biologic and socio-demographic circumstances. Data from two population-based cohort studies was used. The Malmö Preventive Project included 22 444 middle-aged me
BACKGROUND: Pulmonary hypertension may result in significant morbidity and mortality after pediatric cardiac surgery. The objective of this study was to determine the incidence and outcome of severe pulmonary hypertension, defined as a ratio of pulmonary to systemic arterial pressure equal to or greater than 1.0, after cardiac surgery in children. METHODS: Data from all children younger than 18 ye
Part of the justification for an integrated view of speech and gestures ( (( is their temporal coordination. Gestures generally coincide with or precede, but rarely follow lexical affiliate (McNeill, 1992). How synchrony impacts listeners remains less explored, despite potential relevance for video communication and virtual conversational agents. ERP studies suggest that temporal alignment affects

Importance Identifying early proteomic profiles in infants who develop severe retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) may reveal targets for preventive interventions to reduce retinal vessel loss and the subsequent risk of severe ROP. Objective To assess early longitudinal profiles of blood protein levels in preterm infants with or without severe ROP and the effect of arachidonic acid (AA) and docosahexa
Background Trauma is the leading cause of quality-related mortality in low- and middle-income countries, with an estimated two million preventable deaths each year. Although trauma quality improvement programmes have been utilised in high-income countries for more than three decades, there is no high-level evidence of their effect on patient outcomes. We aimed to assess whether implementing a cont
Purpose: The sugar industry is always pressured to be suitable and enhance its operational effectiveness. Digital Twin (DT) has the potential to transform this industry. However, the lack of industry-specific Key Performance Indicator (KPI) frameworks makes it challenging to implement them. This study provides a hierarchical KPI model for DT adoption in the sugar sector, interconnecting the United
BACKGROUND: Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) syndrome is a rare cardiac disorder that predispose to supraventricular arrhythmias. Prognosis is usually benign, yet there is an increased lifetime risk of sudden death. While typically sporadic, familial clustering has been reported. This study aimed to assess the risk of WPW, arrhythmias, and mortality among siblings of individuals with WPW.METHODS: This
BackgroundWorkplace sexual harassment remains a persistent issue in Sweden. Research about organisational antecedents has been criticised for being limited in scope, possibly overlooking contextual factors relevant for the occurrence of sexual harassment. This study examined two factors capturing aspects of organisational climate, perceived relational justice and authoritarian treatment, and their
Intracardiac hemodynamic forces have been proposed to influence remodeling and be a marker of ventricular dysfunction. We aimed to quantify the hemodynamic forces in repaired tetralogy of Fallot (rToF) patients to further understand the pathophysiological mechanisms as this could be a potential marker for pulmonary valve replacement (PVR) in these patients. Patients with rToF and PR>20% (n=18) and
Climate change is expected to severely affect cropping systems and food production in many parts of the world unless local adaptation can ameliorate these impacts. Ensembles of crop simulation models can be useful tools for assessing if proposed adaptation options are capable of achieving target yields, whilst also quantifying the share of uncertainty in the simulated crop impact resulting from th
It is well known that marine fish dynamics relate with climate variability, and predicting future population developments have become increasingly urgent with on-going climate change. One approach in widespread populations is to study how individuals from different parts of the distribution area respond to climate, thereby testing for potential resilience in terms of local adaptions against enviro
Patients with heart failure with left ventricular (LV) dyssynchrony often do not respond to cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT), indicating that the pathophysiology is insufficiently understood. Intracardiac hemodynamic forces computed from four-dimensional (4-D) flow MRI have been proposed as a new measure of cardiac function. We therefore aimed to investigate how hemodynamic forces are alter
Background: Most validations of paediatric glomerular filtration rate (GFR) estimating equations using standardized creatinine (CR) and cystatin C (CYS) assays have comprised relatively small cohorts, which makes accuracy across subgroups of GFR, age, body mass index (BMI) and gender uncertain. To overcome this, a large cohort of children referred for GFR determination has been established from se
PURPOSE: Estimates of short- and long-term survival for young patients with classic Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL) are of considerable interest. We investigated cHL prognosis in the era of contemporary treatment at different milestones during the follow-up. PATIENTS AND METHODS: On the basis of a Nordic cohort of 2,582 patients diagnosed at ages 18 to 49 years between 2000 and 2013, 5-year relapse risks a
Recent advancements in catchment hydrology (such as understanding hydrological processes, accessing new data sources, and refining methods for parameter constraints) make it possible to apply catchment models for ungauged basins over large domains. Here we present a cutting-edge case study applying catchment-modelling techniques at the global scale for the first time. The modelling procedure was c
