In this time-course study the levels of different reactive species, especially those of nitric oxide and peroxynitrite were determined in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rat tissues at different time-points after the onset of the disease, before the development of histopathological damages. Significantly higher steady state free radical concentrations were found in the liver 3 weeks after the onse
Air pollution is associated with cardiovascular morbidity and mortality, but its role in the development of congestive heart failure (CHF) and the role of different pollution sources in cardiovascular disease remain uncertain.MethodsParticipants were enrolled in the Malmö Diet and Cancer cohort in 1991–1996 with information on lifestyle and clinical indicators of cardiovascular disease.

This thesis seeks to examine the suitability and robustness of transfer learning models in creating an efficient reCAPTCHA v2 classifier, and further evaluates their performance against various adversarial attacks. Three models - DenseNet201, EfficientNetV2, and InceptionV3 - were trained and assessed, highlighting the applicability of transfer learning techniques in the classification of reCAPTCH
Air pollution and exposure to fine airborne particles with aerodynamic diameter <2.5 μm (PM2.5) negatively impacts human health. Airways constitute a primary route of exposure but PM2.5-contaminated food, drinks as well as mucociliary and hepatobiliary clearance all constitute potential entry points into the intestine. This study evaluated intestinal histopathological and inflammatory changes as w
In this study, we report on large eddy simulation (LES) of convectively dominated heat transfer in a corrugated heat exchanger channel using the computational fluid dynamics toolbox, OpenFOAM. A chevron pattern domain with 63 contact points is used to represent the conditions in a real plate heat exchanger (PHE). The unsteady nature of the flow is elucidated using visualization techniques based on
Word formation processes frequently lead to systematic interactions between morphology and prosody (e.g., stress or speech melody). In this manner, the prosody on a word stem often changes when endings are added – either through inflection, derivation, or compounding. Native speakers exploit this relation between prosody and morphology during speech perception. On the one hand, they can use the pr
BACKGROUND: The medical programme at Lund University, Sweden, has undergone curricular reform over several stages, which is still ongoing. Students have been somewhat negative in their evaluations of the education during this time. AIM: To find out how the students perceived the educational climate using the Dundee Ready Education Environment Measure (DREEM), and to compare the findings taken at t

Our aim was to study how breast density relates to tumor characteristics in breast cancer with emphasis on mode of detection. Among 17,035 women in the Malmö Diet and Cancer Study 826 incident cases have been diagnosed (1991-2007). Data on tumor characteristics, mode of detection, and density at diagnosis were collected. Associations between density and tumor characteristics were analyzed using lo

BACKGROUND: There are conflicting data on whether changes in N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) concentrations between time points (delta NT-proBNP and hs-CRP) are associated with a change in prognosis. METHODS: We measured NT-proBNP and hs-CRP at 3 time points in 1665 patients with non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndrome
Context: Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) affects people of all ages and is associated with poor prognosis. Chronic breathlessness affects almost all people with PAH. Objectives: This randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, crossover study aimed to evaluate the effects of regular, low-dose, extended-release (ER) morphine for PAH-associated chronic breathlessness. Methods: Participants w
The global stratotype sections and points for the bases of the Selandian (Middle Paleocene) and Thanetian (Upper Paleocene) stages have been defined in the coastal cliff along the Itzurun Beach at the town of Zumaia in the Basque Country, northern Spain. In the hemipelagic section exposed at Zumaia the base of the Selandian Stage has been placed at the base of the Itzurun Formation, ca. 49 m above
PURPOSE: To present a new perimetric index for calculating the rate of glaucomatous progression and to compare its performance with the traditional mean deviation index (MDI). DESIGN: Experimental study describing a device and retrospective cohort study. METHODS: We developed a new visual field index, the glaucoma progression index (GPI), intended to be less affected by cataract than the MDI by ca
The purpose was to investigate the relevance of philosophy of life as well as optimism for the psychological distress among Swedish individuals in a stage where death is approaching. Sixty-nine persons were included; of these were 42 patients newly diagnosed with advanced gastrointestinal cancer and 26 were partners to these patients. The participants' philosophy of life was studied through a semi
Plasmodium parasites are present in a wide range of host species, some of which tend to be more susceptible than others, potentially as an outcome of evolved tolerance or resistance. Common starlings seem to cope with malaria infection while common crossbills are more susceptible to the same infections. That raises the question if the parasites rely on the same molecular mechanisms regardless of h
Background: It has been suggested that changes in prostate-specific antigen (PSA) over time (ie, PSA velocity [PSAV]) aid prostate cancer detection. Some guidelines do incorporate PSAV cut points as an indication for biopsy. Objective: To evaluate whether PSAV enhances prediction of biopsy outcome in a large, representative, population-based cohort. Design, setting, and participants: There were 27
