BACKGROUND AND AIMS:: Celiac disease is associated with tissue transglutaminase autoantibodies (tTGAb) and the human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-risk alleles DQB1*02 and DQB1*0302. The aim was to estimate the proportion of undiagnosed celiac disease in children with HLA risk at 3 years of age. PATIENTS AND METHODS:: From a population-based HLA-DQ screening study of newborns born between June 2001 and
Background: Stroke is one of the major causes of disability in the adult population and represents a heavy social and economic burden. Currently available therapeutic tools to support the recovery of impaired brain functions are quite limited. Animal studies have demonstrated that neuronal replacement and partial reconstruction of neural circuitry or modulation of the recovery process is possible
AbstractSevere perineal trauma (SPT) is a serious complication following vaginal birth. To reduce its incidence rate, various preventive strategies have been implemented in Swedish obstetric units. Collegial midwifery assistance (CMA), involving an additional midwife being present during the active second stage of labour, is a clinical practice that was evaluated in the Oneplus trial, which proved
OBJECTIVE: To investigate feasibility and target engagement of high-dose, add-on pramipexole treatment in anhedonic depression.METHOD: In this open-label pilot study, we included 12 patients with unipolar or bipolar, moderate-to-severe depression and with significant anhedonia symptoms. All patients were on a stable dose of one or a combination of antidepressants and/or mood stabilizers and receiv
Rhetoric is a teaching tradition. The rhetorical exercises in the progymnasmata are the foundation for the teaching culture of rhetoric. The exercises combine theory and practice, but the surviving texts by Hermogenes, Aphthonius and Nicolaus do not tell us how the exercises were used in teaching. In the preface to Theon’s progymnasmata 1.61-64 he gives a short description of his pedagogical meth
Introduction: Regional and hospital decision-makers increasingly require analyses assessing the cost-benefit profile of new cancer drugs. This analysis evaluates the cost-benefit profile of nano albumin-bound paclitaxel (nab-paclitaxel) in pancreatic cancer, versus other drugs indicated in high-unmet need solid tumour indications in Nordic countries (Sweden, Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden). M
Photoisomerization of 1,1′-diethyl-2,2′-carbocyanine iodide (pinacyanol) in alcohols was investigated by means of femtosecond time-resolved absorption spectroscopy. Only one out of two possible types of photoisomer was found. Viscosity-dependent kinetics indicate that the excited state dynamics consist of two parts, associated with a barrier-crossing observed in the blue side of stimulated emissio
PURPOSE: Although many previous studies have indicated that the acute inflammatory response following traumatic brain injury (TBI) is detrimental, inflammation may also positively influence outcome in the more chronic post-injury recovery period. We evaluated the effects of monoclonal antibodies (mAB), neutralizing either IL-6 (IL-6 mAB) or TNF-alpha (TNF mAB), administered intracerebroventricular
Background: Residual air accumulated air in the pulmonary veins constitutes a challenge to achievment of complete de-airing in open left heart surgery. To adress this problem, a conceptual method for de-airing was developed in Lund comprising bilateral opening of the pleurae to induce pulmonary collapse and a strategy with gradual pulmonary reperfusion and ventilation at weaning from cardiopulmona
Hållbarhet är ett vanligt förekommande begrepp, inte minst inom samhällsbyggnad. Ett av FN:s globala mål är att uppnå hållbara städer och samhällen med hållbara och tillgängliga transportsystem för alla. Mobilitetshus är en av de lösningar som planeras för och anses vara en del av att uppnå målet. Det finns emellertid frågor kring hur dessa mobilitetshus ska fungera i praktiken och ett behov av atMobility hubs is a relatively new phenomenon in urban planning and is thought to be part of achieving sustainable transport systems and cities. However, there are questions regarding the real estate laws and as to how the mobility hubs are meant to work in practice. The study has answered the following questions: • What is a mobility hub? • What are the alternatives for the ownership, implementa
Given the rise of new startups and the challenges amplified by events like the Covid-19, it is critical to address the notion of the Entrepreneurial Ecosystem which, in turn, facilitates the development of new ventures. One of the actors within this ecosystem is startup accelerators, which provide networking opportunities, financial and mentoring assistance to new ventures. Previous research on ac
Objective: This review aims to consolidate contemporary literature examining the impact of physical activity (PA) and exercise on sensitisation and pain perception in individuals with chronic non-specific low back pain (cLBP). Methods: A semi-systematic approach was employed, utilising Pubmed and PEDro databases for the period between 2013-2023. Eligibility criteria included randomised control tri
Syftet med studien är att bidra med kunskap om hur chefer och HR-medarbetare på ett energiföretag förväntar sig att onboarding med hjälp av artificiell intelligens (AI) skulle påverka deras arbetsmiljö. Onboarding är en viktig process för att en nyanställd snabbt ska bli en del av sin nya organisation och komma in i organisationens kultur. Det är framförallt chefer och HR-medarbetare som ansvarar
Med äktenskapet följer en ekonomisk gemenskap mellan makar i form av giftorätt. När äktenskapet upphör, genom död eller skilsmässa, ska den ekonomiska gemenskapen makarna emellan upplösas. Avtalsfriheten mellan makar är omfattande. Äktenskapsbalkens bodelningsregler, där likadelning utgör en grundläggande princip, sätter annars en yttre ram. Denna uppsats syftar till att undersöka arvs- och bodelnWith marriage comes an economic community between spouses in the form of marital property. When the marriage ends, either through death or divorce, the economic community between the spouses should be dissolved. There is extensive freedom of contract between spouses. However, the rules of division of property in the Marriage Code, where equal division is a fundamental principle, provide an externa
Second homes, or summer cottages, are widely spread all over Finland. It is estimated that half of the country´s population have an access to one or several second homes. The phenomenon constitutes a remarkable part of how Finns spend their leisure time. Whereas traditional way of life attracts middle aged and retired urban dwellers to return to their roots, increasing number of second home users
Food production, especially meat production, has a large impact on the environment and wastage of these products has an even greater impact (WRAP 2007). A lot of food is thrown away due to "safety scares" and consumers insecurity of the safety and quality of the food. If the microbiological state of meat can be identified and constantly updated, throughout the whole supply chain, includi
Human trafficking is a transnational phenomenon and it has been one of the most hotly debated issues in the development agenda for the last decade. This thesis focuses the attention on the phenomenon of women trafficking for the purpose of sexual exploitation and takes as a case study the Republic of Albania. Albania has been, especially during the 90s, widely touched by the phenomenon, and since

Den europeiska granbarkborren är en insekt som för många räknas till skadedjur. Den har varit ansvarig för förstörelse av över 150 miljoner m3 granskog i Europa under de senaste 50 åren. Global uppvärmning har orsakat förändringar av barkborrens utbredning då problem uppstått med stora utbrott som nu regelbundet inträffar i norra Europa på grund av varmare och utdragna sommarsäsonger. Sverige har The European spruce bark beetle is an insect that is often referred to as a pest. Responsible for the destruction of over 150 million m3 of Norwegian spruce forest in Europe over the last 50 years makes this insect one of the major disturbances to the forest industry. With global warming at large, changes of the distribution of the bark beetle have emerged with large outbreaks now regularly occurr
Large digital platforms impact the entire internal market of the EU. In particular, three challenges characterise their relationship with businesses and end-users, “access to data”, “imbalanced bargaining power”, and “degrading data privacy”, where the common denominator is personal data. This thesis investigates to what extent these challenges are regulated in the GDPR, Article 102 TFEU and the D
