Background: Intravesical instillation of bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) is an accepted strategy to prevent recurrence of non–muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) but associated with significant toxicity. Objective: NIMBUS assessed whether a reduced number of standard-dose BCG instillations are noninferior to the standard number and dose in patients with high-grade NMIBC. Design, setting, and par
Introduction: Dementia is a condition (a collection of related signs and symptoms) that causes a continuing deterioration in cognitive function, and millions of people are impacted by dementia every year as the world population continues to rise. Conventional approaches for determining dementia rely primarily on clinical examinations, analyzing medical records, and administering cognitive and neur
Study Design. A randomized controlled comparative trial with an 8-month follow-up period was conducted. Objective. To compare the effect of the McKenzie treatment method with that of intensive dynamic strengthening training in patients with subacute of chronic low back pain. Summary of Backround Data. Randomized studies indicate that the efficacy of the McKenzie method in the treatment of patients
From an engineering point of view, uncertainty is present in all areas of design (products, processes and organizations). Computer-based design analysis, here confined to quantitative computer-based structural design analysis within mechanical engineering, serves as an important source of information in decisions taken during the design activity; importantly, it aims at giving confidence in critic
”Utdrivningen av det armeniska folket i öknen” var titeln på ett diabildsföredrag som tyske n Armin T. Wegner höll den 19 mars 1919 i Berlin. Det är en gripande berättelse framförd av ett av dem främsta ögonvittnen till armeniska folkmordet under första världskriget i Osmanska imperiet. Som tysk sjukvårdare i turkiska arméns tjänst hade Wegner möjlighet att träffa och intervjua folkmordsoffren, fö
Popular Abstract in Swedish Benskörhet (osteoporos) är ett tillstånd som definieras av låg benmassa och ökar med stigande ålder. Osteoporos är idag en av de stora folksjukdomarna och man räknar med att en tiondel av alla män och en fjärdedel av alla kvinnor i Sverige drabbas. Tillståndet är i sig symptomfritt men ökar risken att råka ut för ett benbrott (fraktur) redan vid lättare fall. Frakturer The aim of this thesis was to evaluate risk factors for bone fragility and fractures in postmenopausal women in a long-term perspective. The study period spanned from the age of 48 to age 82 and is thus unique in its length. The studied sample was homogeneous and consisted of 390 north European women from a population-based cohort. At the start of the study, general health and lifestyle parameters
Background: Laser photocoagulation is a well-established treatment for diabetic retinopathy but the mechanism behind its effectiveness has not been elucidated. The protein kinase C (PKC) family is a group of enzymes which has been the subject of extensive interest in clinically related research since the advent of its role in the pathogenesis of diabetic retinopathy. With this study we wanted to e
Bactericidal/permeability-increasing protein (BPI) is a neutrophil granule protein with potent bactericidal and lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-neutralizing activities. The purpose of this study was to determine if a human recombinant BPI product, rBPI23, would influence neutrophil (PMN) sequestration into various tissues in a rat burn injury model. Leukosequestration may produce local tissue injury from
This chapter offers a reflection on the value of dialogue across media industries and academia in enhancing understanding of audience engagement and disengagement with media. The basis for this reflection is an industry-academic collaborative project between Lund University and Endemol Shine. The Media Experiences project conducted production and audience research on a range of drama and reality e
BackgroundEven when palliative care is an integrated part of the healthcare system, the quality is still substandard for many patients and often initiated too late. There is a lack of structured guidelines for identifying and caring for patients; in particular for those with early palliative care needs. A care guide can act as a compass for best practice and support the care of patients throughout
BACKGROUND: Heparin-binding protein (HBP) is a neutrophil-derived pro-inflammatory protein, an inducer of endothelial dysfunction and vascular permeability and a promising prognostic biomarker in sepsis. This exploratory study aims to describe the kinetics of plasma HBP during septic shock and investigate an association between repeated measures of HBP concentration and cardiovascular organ dysfun
Kai Söderhjelm (b. 1918 in Helsinki, d. 1996 in Gothenburg) belonged to a Finland-Swedish cultural family, and was for many years an important and valuable figure in the intellectual life of Sweden. Söderhjelm’s authorship follows the same clear thematic lines from his first book, Rid mot nordväst (1948; Ride to the northwest), to his last, Okänt land (1993; Unknown land). These themes are peace,
Popular Abstract in Swedish Hur gick det till när det svenska riket expanderade norrut och införlivade Hälsingland? Denna bok är uppställd som en generalhypotes över denna långt utdragna process, som tar sin utgångspunkt i den samhälleliga kollaps som är skönjbar under 500-talet. De inhemska maktstrukturer som gradvis byggdes upp efteråt kom under medeltidens inledande århundraden att få känna på In which way did the power structures of central Sweden expand into the territories north of the forest Ödmården during the Middle Ages? This text reads like a general hypothesis for this process, which attempts to incorporate all relevant elements in the Medieval landscape of power. The study area chosen is the province of Hälsingland. The chronological take-off is the 6th century AD, when settle
With advancing age, changes in the arterial wall contribute to what has been called vascular aging, and in some prematurely affected subjects even early vascular aging (EVA).1–5 Several years ago,1 we listed various components of EVA, including arteriosclerosis, atherosclerosis, and excess vasoconstriction, with their clinical expression: arterial stiffening and increased central pulse pressure, c
I över 50 år har Kongo-Kinshasa varit utsatt for krig, och landet präglas idag av en skenande statskollaps. Vi har utkristalliserat tre fundamentala orsaker till konflikten som anses relevanta i samband med vår frågestallning, vilken behandlar FN-styrkan MONUC: s insatser i landet. Maktspel över Kongos enorma naturtillgångar, politisk problematik och etniska skiljelinjer är grunden till såväl konf
Introduction Cetaceans are abundant in the waters surrounding Scotland. These animals are occasionally found stranded along the coastline, and data recording the locations of these stranding events has been collected over the past several decades. There are many factors which may influence the location in which an animal is reported to have stranded. Some of these factors are environmental and inf
Skogen spelar en viktig roll för den globala biologiska mångfalden, klimatet och är kopplade till urfolks kulturella överlevnad. Samernas traditionella rennäring är beroende av skogens ekosystem. Expansionen av kommersiellt skogsbruk i Sverige har dock lett till betydande konflikter om markanvändning, där samernas rättigheter ofta nedprioriteras till förmån för andra ekonomiska intressen. Denna uForests are vital for global biodiversity, environmental sustainability and are intrinsically linked to the cultural survival of Indigenous peoples. The Sámi traditional reindeer herding practices depend on forest ecosystems. However, the expansion of commercial forestry in Sweden has led to significant conflicts over land use, with the Sámi people’s rights frequently being de-prioritised in favou
