The increasing rate of caesarean delivery is a worldwide concern. A major contributor to this evolution has been a concomitantly decline in vaginal birth after caesarean, because of the risk of intrapartum uterine rupture, which is a rare but potentially catastrophic complication of a trial of labour after caesarean (TOLAC).

Biochemical markers for osteoarthritis (OA) may serve different purposes. Since markers reflect ongoing dynamic metabolic processes in the joint tissues (cartilage, synovium, bone, etc.), they are most likely to be useful to predict prognosis and response to treatment, to monitor response to treatment, and for disease staging. Markers are currently being used at the research level for these purpos

Monetary policy has been suggested to show a fading impact on domestic inflation. Based on this, the study tests whether this has occurred with Swedish monetary policy over the period January 2000 – January 2020. This is done by studying the impact of monetary policy on consumer price inflation and real estate prices in Sweden, comparing the results to the United States. The used method consists o

Background: The classic Bernard-Soulier syndrome (BSS) is a rare inherited thrombocytopenia (IT) associated with severe thrombocytopenia, giant platelets, and bleeding tendency caused by homozygous or compound heterozygous variants in GP1BA, GP1BB, or GP9. Monoallelic BSS (mBSS) associated with mild asymptomatic macrothrombocytopenia caused by heterozygous variants in GP1BA or GP1BB may be a frequ
