Critical infrastructures provide services that are essential for the functioning of our society and extensive disruptions in these can have widespread effects. These effects are not only limited to the directly affected infrastructure but also indirectly through interdependencies to other infrastructures. By only account-ing for the direct consequences when analysing critical infrastructures, the

Nanoimprint lithography (NIL) is a nonconventional lithographic technique that promises low-cost, high-throughput patterning of structures with sub-10 nm resolution. Contamination of nanoimprint stamps is one of the key obstacles to industrialize the NIL technology. Here, we report two efficient approaches for removal of typical contamination of particles and residual resist from stamps: thermal a

BACKGROUND: -Coagulation allelic variants associated with venous thromboembolism (VTE) have been suggested to be involved in the pathogenesis of ischemic stroke. This nationwide study aimed at determining whether VTE shares familial susceptibility with ischemic stroke. Method and Results-The Swedish Multigeneration Register of 0-75-year-old subjects was linked to the Swedish Hospital Discharge Reg

Objective To systematically review and synthesise the incidence and characteristics of injuries and illnesses among athletes participating in the Olympic, Youth Olympic and Paralympic Games.Design Systematic review and meta-analysis.Data sources PubMed, Embase, CINAHL, Scopus and Web of Science were searched up to 2 July 2024, and Google Scholar, ClinicalTrials.gov and WHO International Clinical T

OBJECTIVE: To explore the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) proteome in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and the associations between the CSF proteomic patterns and clinical manifestations.METHODS: CSF samples from 29 female outpatients with SLE were analyzed with label-free liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry. Inclusion and CSF collection were conducted irrespective of clinical manifestation

This article presents the analysis of a large survey on file-sharing that was conducted in April 2011 with over 75,000 respondents from all over the world. The study, also known as The Research Bay, due to that it was conducted in collaboration with the infamous BitTorrent site The Pirate Bay, by the Cybernorms research group. The aim of the online study of The Pirate Bay community has been to des

Begreppet delaktighet har idag en central roll i styrdokument och forskning inom funktionshinderområdet. Det har en gränsöverskridande karaktär och utgör en mötesplats på tvärs av forskningstraditioner och praktiksammanhang. Samtidigt är det ett komplext begrepp med många innebörder och delkomponenter. Syftet med denna kartläggning är att beskriva och analysera rådande kunskapläge för den forsknin

BACKGROUND: The risk of breast cancer among hypertensive patients who use beta-blockers has attracted attention. However, the evidence is inconsistent and investigation of the dose-specific associations for subtypes of beta-blockers are limited.METHODS: By incorporating Swedish national registers, breast cancer risk was estimated in women with hypertension who used nonselective beta-blockers and b

Focal non-convulsive status epilepticus (fNCSE) is a neurological condition characterized by a prolonged seizure that may lead to the development of epilepsy. Emerging experimental evidence implicates neuronal death, microglial activation and alterations in the excitatory and inhibitory synaptic balance as key features in the pathophysiology following fNCSE. We have previously reported alterations

Processing of complex cell preparations such as blood and peripheral blood progenitor cell (PBPC) transplants using label-free technologies is challenging. Transplant-contaminating neuroblastoma cells (NBCs) can contribute to relapse, and we therefore aimed to provide proof-of-principle evidence that label-free acoustophoretic separation can be applied for diagnostic NBC enrichment and removal ("p

We identify biomarkers for disease progression in three type 2 diabetes cohorts encompassing 2,973 individuals across three molecular classes, metabolites, lipids and proteins. Homocitrulline, isoleucine and 2-aminoadipic acid, eight triacylglycerol species, and lowered sphingomyelin 42:2;2 levels are predictive of faster progression towards insulin requirement. Of ~1,300 proteins examined in two
