OBJECTIVE: To investigate the occurrence of meniscal calcifications in individuals with and without knee osteoarthritis (OA). Additionally, we aim to identify the specific types of calcifications: basic calcium phosphate (BCP) and calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate (CPP).METHOD: We analysed 82 meniscal posterior horn samples (medial and lateral) collected from 41 human subjects. Among them, 20 indivi
Background: Breathlessness is common in the population and can be related to a range of medical conditions. We aimed to evaluate the burden of breathlessness related to different medical conditions in a middle-aged population. Methods: Cross-sectional analysis of the population-based Swedish CArdioPulmonary bioImage Study of adults aged 50–64 years. Breathlessness (modified Medical Research Counci
Background: The aim of this study was to systematically review the literature and to perform meta-analyses on full-field electroretinography (ffERG) between healthy controls and age-related macular degeneration (AMD) to map the extent of retinal dysfunction. Summary: We systematically searched 11 databases on 3 March 2021. Eligible studies had to measure retinal function using ffERG in eyes with A
Purpose: To examine heat exposure at work and home and the work–recovery cycle and temporal variation of kidney strain, muscle injury and inflammation biomarkers in sugarcane workers. Methods: 20 male sugarcane workers (age: 33 ± 7 years) with a workplace Rest.Shade.Hydration (RSH) intervention were observed over 4 days, at the end (18 h post-shift recovery) and beginning of a work week (42 h post
Despite the overall rapid economical development during the last decade in China, a number of regions in remote areas are still striving to alleviate poverty. These regions are commonly characterized by low level of industrialization, poorly developed agriculture, which almost entirely relies on climate situations. Water has often been a bottle-neck in the development of the agricultural, industri
One risk of continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) is inadvertent hypothermia (IH), which is defined as a non-therapeutic core temperature decrease below normal. In continuous renal replacement therapy, heat loss will always occur from blood pumped through the dialysis circuit to cooler environment, predisposing for hypothermia. Blood flow and effluent flows are the most important parameters
Mosses have often been used for biomonitoring because of their diversity of habitats, structural simplicity, and rapid multiplication rate. This research aimed to study the tolerance of heavy metal in 3 species of terricolous mosses i.e., Barbula consanguinea, Hyophila apiculata, and H. involuta. The gametophores of mosses were immersed at 4 concentrations of each of the heavy metals Cd, Pb, and Z
Summary: This study describes that low bone density is prevalent in premenopausal Saudi women, especially women of normal weight and vitamin D deficiency. Although BMD is higher in obese young women, this may not be beneficial later in life in conjunction with persistent vitamin D deficiency. Introduction: Not attaining peak bone mass is one crucial factor contributing to the risk of developing os
Objective. The objective of this study was to explore whether recombinant GAD65 conjugated hydroxide (GAD-alum) treatment affected peripheral blood T-cell subpopulations in healthy children with multiple beta cell autoantibodies. Method. The Diabetes Prevention–Immune Tolerance 2 (DiAPREV-IT 2) clinical trial enrolled 26 children between 4 and 13 years of age, positive for glutamic acid decarboxyl
Under de senaste 150 åren har det svenska landskapet genomgått mycket stora förändringar. Det har lett till förlust av livsmiljöer för många arter och har haft långtgående konsekvenser för vår inhemska fauna och flora. Många arter har minskat dramatiskt och i vissa fall helt försvunnit.När en art väl har börjat minska finns det många faktorer som kan förstärka den negativa trenden. En individrik p
BACKGROUND: Emerging evidence from cohort studies indicates that adiposity is associated with greater incidence of head and neck cancer (HNC). However, most studies have used self-reported anthropometry which is prone to error.METHODS: Among 363 094 participants in the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition study (EPIC) with measured anthropometry, there were 837 incident cas
Background Cervical cancer and its obligate precursors, cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grades 2 and 3 (CIN2/3), and adenocarcinona in situ (AIS), are caused by oncogenic human papillomavirus (HPV). In this combined analysis of four clinical trials we assessed the effect of prophylactic HPV vaccination on these diseases. Methods 20 583 women aged 16-26 years were randomised to receive quadrival
OBJECTIVES: Sport-related concussions are an increasingly recognized health problem. Soccer is the most popular sport in the world although recent studies on concussion incidence are scarce. Here, a nation-wide prospective study on concussion incidence, symptom severity, risk factors, gender differences and return-to-play after concussion was performed in 51 Swedish elite soccer teams during the 2

Aims: Drug–gene interactions (DGIs) modify drug response and safety, yet their influence on diabetic microvascular complications remains unclear. This study aimed to elucidate the role of DGIs in these complications. Materials and Methods: Using UK Biobank (UKB) data, we identified medications frequently prescribed to individuals with diabetes and defined DGIs based on the Food and Drug Administra
OBJECTIVES: To determine in a large prospective population-based cohort study relationships between different measures of body mass and incidence of severe knee and hip osteoarthritis (OA) defined as arthroplasty of knee or hip due to OA. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Body mass index (BMI), waist circumference, waist-hip ratio (WHR), weight, and percentage of body fat (BF%) was measured at baseline in 11
