Background: Although up to 25% of proximal humeral fractures are isolated greater tuberosity fractures (IGTFs), comprehensive epidemiological data are lacking. Objectives: Describe the epidemiology and time trends of IGTF in Malmö, Sweden, 1944–2020. Methods: We identified IGTF in Malmö residents (≥18 years) by reviewing relevant radiology examinations during 17 sample years from 1944 to 2020. Fra
Lignocellulosic materials (e.g., straw and bran) are gaining interest as feedstocks for the manufacture of higher value products, recognizing xylooligosaccharides (XOS) as interesting prebiotic compounds, and putting enzymes converting xylooligosaccharides into focus. In this work, we are investigating a XOS converting enzyme from the probiotic bacterium Levilactobacillus brevis (formerly Lactobac
INTRODUCTION: This study examined trends in socioeconomic inequalities in obesity among Portuguese women and men using data from National Health Surveys (NHSs).METHODS: We analysed weighted data from adults aged 20-64 years from the 1998/1999 (n = 20,581), 2005/2006 (n = 13,088), 2014 (n = 7284), and 2019 (n = 5959) NHSs. Obesity was defined as body mass index (BMI) ≥30 kg/m 2, based on self-repo
En av orsakerna till att näringslivets olika parter har svårt att se sin egen relevans och styrka i det brottsförebyggande arbetet handlar inte bara om den specifika verktygslåda de har till sitt förfogande, utan om det sätt både de och vi har kommit att tänka på och förstå vad som definierar det brottsförebyggande. Med andra ord verkar en huvudorsak till att många företagare uppfattar sig som "pr
The link between the structural organization of the fibrillar components of lung extracellular matrix (ECM), local tissue stiffness and global viscoelastic behaviour is not known. Here we investigated the effect of injurious mechanical ventilation on the local lung tissue stiffness using 4D synchrotron phase-contrast micro-CT, in normal lung and 7 days after intratracheal bleomycin induced lung in
In this doctoral thesis I investigate two key issues at the heart of the ongoing philosophical debate concerning the emotions – their nature and their normativity. I argue against the deeply entrenched view according to which emotions are representational mental states and fitting in virtue of accurately representing their objects. Drawing on recent attitudinal accounts of the emotions, I develop
We know little about the odds of growing old in the later Middle Ages because reconstructions of the longevity and life expectancy of populations require baptismal, marriage, and death registers, which only gradually appear after 1500. The few earlier reconstructions that are available concern males; the female experience of ageing is mostly based on small samples of elite women who lived in the M
Introduction: Person-centred care is being implemented in healthcare to facilitate co-created care and patients' participation in their own care. This is a new practice, also among radiographers. The aim of the study was to explore radiographers' perceptions of the framework of person-centred care and its performance in radiography.Methods: Phenomenography was the study design. Focus group discuss
What makes baby cries, dog barks and piercing screams so disturbing and difficult to ignore? A common explanation is that their salience is enhanced by vocal roughness and unpredictability caused by irregular phonation. A comprehensive investigation in ten perceptual experiments confirmed that human listeners found nonlinear vocal phenomena (NLP: frequency jumps, amplitude modulation, subharmonics
AI-enhanced search applications are evolving rapidly, promising to answer complex queries with simple answers, but this creates new challenges on how users evaluate the information presented to them. This study investigates how four AI-enhanced search applications (ChatGPT, Gemini, Copilot and You.com) respond to questions about erectile dysfunction drugs in Sweden, which risks creating digital gr
BACKGROUND: Accurate risk stratification in older adults presenting to the emergency department (ED) is essential but challenging due to atypical presentations and age-related physiological changes. While vital signs are central to triage, their predictive value for short-term mortality in this population remains unclear. This study aimed to explore the association between initial vital signs and
Research on climate change obstruction has often focused on what has been called the Climate Change Countermovement, the CCCM. While the term originated from the social movements literature – acknowledging the movement-countermovement dynamics – it has in climate obstructionist research often been described as a relatively fixed entity connected to the vested interests of the fossil fuel industry
This book considers the potential solutions that the sharing economy offers to tackle the increasing challenges of urbanisation and sustainability facing cities. It emphasises the need for robust policies to ensure that the sharing economy supports urban sustainability and resilience by promoting more efficient and circular use of urban resources through practices like car-sharing, accommodation r
Throughout the past years, the Orthodox world has seen numerous political and theological confrontations. New borders have been shaped by churches and states. This only increased in light of the Russian-backed conflict in Ukraine from 2014 and onwards, which has led to new theological lines of thinking, geopolitical confrontations, and an acute need for diplomatic handling of crisis. At the centre
Thermal unfolding of whey proteins and whey protein-casein mixtures in simulated milk ultrafiltrate was studied by differential scanning calorimetry. The results are reported as transition enthalpy, temperature of peak maximum, and van’t Hoff enthalpy related to the sharpness of transition. The results of earlier investigations were reviewed. It is suggested that a large part of reported whe
Objectives: Pregnancy can influence immune control of Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection (MtbI). We recently reported an association between MtbI and pregnancy complications, particularly severe preeclampsia, in a registry-based cohort of women originating in tuberculosis-endemic countries screened for MtbI in Swedish antenatal care, implying a potential role of MtbI for the development of preec
Aim: The aim of this study was to investigate the annual prevalence and characteristics of Paediatric Feeding Disorder (PFD) in Västerbotten county, Sweden, during the years 2012–2022. Methods: In this retrospective study, medical records of patients attending paediatric clinics with possible feeding problems were identified by applying pre-defined diagnostic and procedure codes. Diagnostic criter
