Objective Blood cell populations, including red blood cells (RBC) unique to the extremely preterm (EPT) infant, are potentially lost due to frequent clinical blood sampling during neonatal intensive care. Currently, neonatal RBC population heterogeneity is not described by measurement of total haemoglobin or haematocrit. We therefore aimed to describe a subpopulation of large RBCs with hyper high

Purpose - The aim of this paper is to analyze Artificial Intelligence in the music industry in order to provide an indication of how Artificial Intelligence is expected to continue impacting the connection between the consumer and the brand. Design/methodology/approach - The study is based on a qualitative single case study method and it discusses how Spotify has incorporated Artificial Intellige

Background: The transfusion of red blood cells (RBCs) after cardiac surgery has been associated with increased long-term mortality. This study reexamines this hypothesis by including pre-operative hemoglobin (Hb) levels and renal function in the analysis. Methods: A retrospective single-center study was performed including 5261 coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) patients in a Cox proportional

In September 1912, the Russian author Maxim Gorky wrote to the Paris-based Indian revolutionary Madame Cama and asked her to write an article on Indian women and their role in the Indian freedom struggle. Their correspondence highlights several issues: Cama’s central role among Indian and anticolonial nationalists from across the world in early twentieth-century Paris; the inspiration from the 190

A delayed rectifier voltage-gated K+ channel (Kv) represents the largest ionic conductance of platelets and megakaryocytes, but is undefined at the molecular level. Quantitative RT-PCR of all known Kv alpha and ancillary subunits showed that only Kv1.3 (KCNA3) is substantially expressed in human platelets. Furthermore, megakaryocytes from Kv1.3-/- mice or from wild-type mice exposed to the Kv1.3 b

This thesis discusses institutional sustainability and transitions to sustainable development. These concepts are explored through a qualitative case study on rural groundwater management institutions in Aweil East, South Sudan. The primary question guiding the discussion is how a transition towards sustainable development is reflected in this particular case. The secondary questions supporting th

The Lund Cardiac MR Group at the Department of Clinical Physiology, Lund University was established 1999 by professor Håkan Arheden and is led by a steering committee consisting of professors Håkan Arheden, Henrik Engblom, Anthony Aletras, associate professors Einar Heiberg, Ellen Ostenfeld, Erik Hedström, Katarina Steding-Ehrenborg and Johannes Töger. The group performs clinically integrated res

Previously, a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP), rs9939609, in the FTO gene showed a much stronger association with all-cause mortality than expected from its association with body mass index (BMI), body fat mass index (FMI) and waist circumference (WC). This finding implies that the SNP has strong pleiotropic effects on adiposity and adiposity-independent pathological pathways that leads to in

Previous studies using echocardiography in healthy subjects have reported conflicting data regarding the percentage of the stroke volume ( SV) of the left ventricle ( LV) resulting from longitudinal and radial function, respectively. Therefore, the aim was to quantify the percentage of SV explained by longitudinal atrioventricular plane displacement ( AVPD) in controls, athletes, and patients with
