Protein recovery from fermentation broths remains a challenge in downstream bioprocessing due to the complex composition of fermentation media. This study investigated a cascade microfiltration–ultrafiltration (MF–UF) process for protein clarification and concentration from a whey protein-based model fermentation broth. The work evaluated membrane performance, fouling behavior, cleaning efficiency

1 Förslag till målbild 2027 för fakultetens djurhusverksamhet – och handlingsplan att nå dit Djurhusfrågan – nyckeln till Medicinska fakultetens framtid I dag finns en stor överkapacitet i Medicinska fakultetens fyra djurhus där en stor del av lokalerna står tomma. Det beror på att lokalbeståndet har ökat efter ianspråktagandet av Comparative Medicine Unit (CMU) samtidigt som djurförsöken minskat

Objectives To calculate the normal range for the fetal middle cerebral artery (MCA)/uterine artery pulsatility index (PI) ratio in the third trimester of pregnancy and to assess its value, compared with that of the MCA/umbilical artery PI ratio, in predicting an unfavorable outcome of pregnancies complicated by pre-eclampsia. Methods Doppler blood flow velocimetry of the uterine and umbilical arte
Popular Abstract in Icelandic SUMMARY IN ICELANDIC Samantekt á íslensku Hlutfall eldra fólks í Evrópu sem og annars staðar í heiminum hefur aukist og þá sérstaklega þeirra sem eru 80 ára og eldri. Vegna hrumleika og langvinnra sjúkdóma er líklegt að þessi aldurshópur þarfnist aðstoðar frá hinu opinbera, m. a. vistunar á hjúkrunarheimilum. Því má ætla að á komandi árum muni hjúkrunarheimilin standThe overall aim of this thesis was to investigate trends over time in residents’ health status, functional profile and predictors of mortality at admission to Icelandic nursing homes and in addition to determine upper and lower thresholds for Minimum Data Set (MDS) Quality Indicators, to investigate the prevalence of quality indicators over time and their association with the health status and fun
Policymakers in publicly funded health-care systems are frequently required to make intricate decisions on which health-care services to include or exclude from the basic health-care package. Although it seems likely that the concept of individual responsibility is an essential feature of such decisions, it is rarely explicitly articulated or evaluated in health policy. This paper presents a tenta
Foreign Direct Investments (FDI) has been described as a mechanism to promote employment. Recent research suggests that FDI could even impact gender inequalities in labour force participation. The purpose of this paper is to investigate whether and how FDI inflow is affecting African countries’ gender differences in the labour force participation in the agriculture, industry, and service sector.

Syftet med denna studie var att få en ökad kunskap och förståelse för de utmaningar som uppstår i biståndshandläggarnas arbete för att bedöma behovet av hjälp bland äldre i Sverige. Målet var vidare att undersöka hur arbetsprocessen har påverkats på grund av kompletterande utmaningar orsakade av pandemin. Studien baseras på kvalitativa intervjuer med sex biståndshandläggare som arbetar inom den svThe purpose of this study was to gain an increased knowledge and understanding of the challenges occurring in care managers’ work to assess needs of assistance among elderly people in Sweden. Further, the aim was to investigate how the work process has been affected due to supplementary challenges caused by the pandemic. The study is based on qualitative interviews with six care managers working w
BACKGROUND: Sacroiliac joint pain is increasingly recognized as a cause of low back pain. We compared the safety and effectiveness of minimally invasive sacroiliac joint arthrodesis using triangular titanium implants and conservative management in patients with chronic sacroiliac joint pain. METHODS: This study was a prospective, multicenter randomized controlled trial of adults with chronic sacro
Purpose To develop an infrastructure for structured and automated collection of interoperable radiation therapy (RT) data into a national clinical quality registry. Materials and methods The present study was initiated in 2012 with the participation of seven of the 15 hospital departments delivering RT in Sweden. A national RT nomenclature and a database for structured unified storage of RT data a
Background: Whether long-term effectiveness differs between anti-tumour necrosis factor (anti-TNF) agents is unknown. Aims: To examine drug survival of first-line anti-TNF agents and identify predictors of discontinuation. To reduce channelling bias, we also compared drug survival of the second anti-TNF. Methods: Biologic-naïve patients (N = 955) recorded in the Swedish IBD Quality Register (SWIBR
Aims: The hypothesis of 'metabolically healthy obesity' implies that, in the absence of metabolic dysfunction, individuals with excess adiposity are not at greater cardiovascular risk We tested this hypothesis in a large pan-European prospective study. Methods and results: We conducted a case-cohort analysis in the 520 000-person European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition study (
OBJECTIVE: Assess the quality of healthcare across African countries based on health providers' clinical knowledge, their clinic attendance and drug availability, with a focus on seven conditions accounting for a large share of child and maternal mortality in sub-Saharan Africa: malaria, tuberculosis, diarrhoea, pneumonia, diabetes, neonatal asphyxia and postpartum haemorrhage.METHODS: With nation
OBJECTIVE: Topical negative pressure therapy has excellent healing effects in poststernotomy mediastinitis. Topical negative pressure therapy reduces bacterial counts, increases wound edge microvascular blood flow and granulation tissue formation, and facilitates healing. No study has yet been performed to examine the effect of topical negative pressure on the blood and fluid content in the sterna
OBJECTIVE: Data on females managed with fenestrated or branched endovascular aortic arch repair (FB-Arch) are limited. This study aimed to present the 30 day and follow up outcomes of FB-Arch in female patients.METHODS: A retrospective analysis (1 January 2011 to 31 March 2024) among four European aortic centres was conducted according to STROBE guidelines. Consecutive female patients managed with
Preparing travel time data can be a time-consuming process, which greatly limits the flexibility of transport simulation models. In the current paper, we present an approach to integrate a routing engine locally in an existing modeling framework, hence enabling to dynamically calculate travel times in the constructed emergency medical services (EMS) simulation models. This integration eliminates t
Aims: Because evidence regarding risk stratification predicting prognosis of patients with heart failure (HF) decompensation attended in primary care is lacking, we developed and externally validated a model to forecast death/hospitalization during the first 30 days after an episode of decompensation. The predictive model is based on variables easily obtained in primary care settings. Methods and
A mobile stroke unit (MSU) is an ambulance, where stroke patients can be diagnosed and treated. Recently, placement of MSUs has been studied focusing on either maximum population coverage or equal service for all patients, termed efficiency and equity, respectively. In this study, we propose an unconstrained optimization model for the placement of MSUs, designed to introduce a tradeoff between eff
