Objective: The authors sought to determine whether pregnancy is an intrinsic motivator for cessation of drug abuse. Method: The authors conducted prospective cohort, corelative, co-spouse, and within-person analyses of registration for drug abuse during pregnancy among Swedish women born between 1980 and 1990 who gave birth between ages 20 and 35 (N=149,512). Drug abuse was assessed from medical,

Solid fuel fired fluidized bed (FB) boilers are common in combined heat and power (CHP) plants in district heating- and process industry. In this study, utilization of such FB boilers for production of syngas in dual fluidized bed gasifiers and subsequent catalytic biofuel production to substitute natural gas (SNG), methanol (MeOH) and Fischer-Tropsch fuel (FT) has been examined. Based on the hypo

The identification of carotid atheromatous plaques associated to a higher neurologic risk may be important in therapeutic decision making for asymptomatic patients and symptomatic patients with 50%-70% stenosis. The introduction of high-definition ultrasonography (HDU) and computer-assisted image analysis provides the possibility of a standard, objective and detailed characterization of the struct

A knee injury with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture may cause deficits in proprioception, increased laxity and decreased muscle strength. Although it may be common knowledge that these factors affect knee function, only a few studies have been performed where this has been investigated in the clinical situation, and the results are not conclusive. The purpose of this study was therefore to

BACKGROUND: Certain immune-mediated diseases (IMDs), such as rheumatoid arthritis and systemic lupus erythematosus, have been linked to cardiovascular disorders. We examined whether there is an association between 32 different IMDs and risk of subsequent hospitalization for coronary heart disease (CHD) related to coronary atherosclerosis in a nationwide follow up study in Sweden. METHODS AND FIND

Coffee and tea contain numerous antimutagenic and antioxidant components and high levels of caffeine that may protect against colorectal cancer (CRC). We investigated the association between coffee and tea consumption and CRC risk and studied potential effect modification by CYP1A2 and NAT2 genotypes, enzymes involved in the metabolization of caffeine. Data from 477,071 participants (70.2% female)

IMPORTANCE Bipolar disorder is associated with premature mortality, but the specific causes and underlying pathways are unclear. OBJECTIVE To examine the physical health effects of bipolar disorder using outpatient and inpatient data for a national population.

Introduction: This multicenter, prospective observational study aimed to evaluate the performance of the StatStrip® Lactate 2 (Nova Biomedical, Waltham, US) point-of-care device for fetal blood lactate measurement and to determine the corresponding lactate value equivalent to the established intervention cutoff used with the outgoing StatStrip® Lactate device. Material and Methods: The study was c

AbstractAim: This study sought to investigate the hypothesis that children dying outside a pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) after PICU discharge have a limitation of medical treatment (LOMT) order in place, limiting PICU readmission at the time of death.Methods: A cohort was identified of all children (n=3890; 5019 admissions) treated in a PICU in Sweden over 3 consecutive years between Januar

IntroductionSport-related concussion (SRC) is one of the most common and concerning injuries in team sports, with potential long-term effects on athlete health and performance. Linear head acceleration (LHA) and rotational head acceleration (RHA) are central biomechanical markers of brain loading during impact. Yet, the magnitude of these accelerations during SRC events remains poorly synthesized

Taking as its starting point the scholarly discussion about the possible death of the Aesopic fable towards the end of the eighteenth century, this article proposes a broadening of perspective, arguing for a thorough examination of the impact of modernity on some of the basic contexts and conditions of the genre. Four contextual factors are, subsequently, placed under scrutiny: the ethics of virtu

Background: In addition to the established association between general obesity and breast cancer risk, central obesity and circulating fasting insulin and glucose have been linked to the development of this common malignancy. Findings from previous studies, however, have been inconsistent, and the nature of the associations is unclear.Methods: We conducted Mendelian randomization analyses to evalu

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to examine the fans’ perspective of sport team loyalty and the reasons why brand loyalty is extremely high within sports. Methodology: This paper uses a qualitative research method with both primary data and secondary data. The literature review with previous research was collected by secondary data whereas the primary data was collected by six semi-structured
