Objective: To estimate the effect on healthcare resource use after introducing the World Health Organization diagnostic criteria (WHO-2013) for gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) compared to former criteria in Sweden (SWE-GDM). Design: A cost-analysis alongside the Changing Diagnostic Criteria for Gestational Diabetes (CDC4G) randomised controlled trial. Setting: Sweden, with risk-factor based sc
In this research, a straightforward and effective preconcentration technique was developed by integrating three-phase hollow fiber liquid-phase microextraction (HF-LPME) with high-performance liquid chromatography equipped with a photodiode array detector and mass spectrometry (HPLC-DAD/MS) for the simultaneous extraction and quantification of trace levels of tamoxifen (Tam) and clomiphene (Clom)
A search for heavy right-handed Majorana neutrinos is performed with the ATLAS detector at the CERN Large Hadron Collider, using the (Formula Presented) of proton-proton collision data at (Formula Presented) collected during Run 2. This search targets (Formula Presented) production, in which both top quarks decay into a bottom quark and a (Formula Presented) boson, where one of the (Formula Presen
OBJECTIVE: The Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index (BASDAI) is widely used for assessing disease activity in patients with axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA), particularly in settings where markers of inflammation are unavailable. As no consensus on BASDAI cut-off values exists for disease activity states in axSpA, we aimed to develop and validate such cut-offs against external criteri

A search for R-parity-violating supersymmetry in final states with high jet multiplicity is presented. The search uses 140 fb−1 of proton-proton collision data at s = 13 TeV collected by the ATLAS experiment during Run 2 of the Large Hadron Collider. The results are interpreted in the context of R-parity-violating supersymmetry models that feature prompt gluino-pair production decaying directly to
A combination of searches for new heavy spin-1 resonances decaying into different pairings of W, Z, or Higgs bosons, as well as directly into leptons or quarks, is presented. The data sample used corresponds to 139 fb−1 of proton-proton collisions at s = 13 TeV collected during 2015–2018 with the ATLAS detector at the CERN Large Hadron Collider. Analyses selecting quark pairs (qq, bb, tt¯, and tb)
Introduction: South Africa has one of the highest incidence rates of notified tuberculosis (TB) in the world. Achieving TB control requires strengthening treatment and support services. The implementation of differentiated delivery models can be used to improve service quality and enhance retention in care. This study aimed to identify treatment and support delivery preferences among people on TB
Urban water systems are facing growing challenges, including climate change and aging assets. Digital transformation presents opportunities to address these issues. However, water utilities often encounter barriers such as fragmented initiatives, organizational inertia, and lack of systems interoperability, limiting the scalability and impact of digitalization efforts. This paper presents a strate
INTRODUCTION: Blood-based biomarkers have demonstrated high accuracy for identifying Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathology. However, the lack of representative cohorts creates a knowledge gap regarding their real-world applicability. We examined the influence of ethnicity on the diagnostic accuracy of plasma tau phosphorylated at threonine 217 (p-tau217) in identifying AD. METHODS: A total of 1170 mi
Introduction As care and rehabilitation poststroke are increasingly moving into persons’ home environment, the importance of support from social networks in self-management and rehabilitation has emerged as an important topic for research and practice. While there are instruments used to assess social support and collective efficacy, a clearer scope of the availability and quality of these instrum
Background: The aim of heart transplantation is prolonged survival and improved quality of life. Chronic pain is a common and distressing symptom after heart transplantation. To our knowledge, there are no person-centred interventions aimed at chronic pain and symptom distress after heart transplantation. The aim was to assess the feasibility and acceptability of systematic, person-centred symptom
Background: Japan lacks efficient assessment tools for occupational balance (OB) in people with mental illness (MI). Aims/objectives: We investigated the test–retest reliability and construct validity of a Japanese version of the Satisfaction with Daily Occupations and Occupational Balance (SDO-OB-J) for people with MI. Methods: SDO-OB-J interviews were conducted twice at a 2-week interval. Result
Rationale: A care bundle approach to the management of spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) has been shown to benefit patients in low- and middle-income countries (LMIC), but uncertainty persists over the specific components and its applicability in high-income countries (HICs). Aims: An international collaborative initiative aimed at determining whether implementation of a care bundle impro
BACKGROUND: The Scandinavian Neurotrauma Committees (SNC) guideline is a validated and well established decision tool for pediatric minor to moderate head trauma in Sweden, categorizing patients into low, moderate and high risk for intracranial injury. It recommends observation over imaging with computer tomography in low and moderate risk stratified patients. However the effect on guideline imple
Deep learning has advanced flood forecasting through its strong nonlinear modeling capabilities. However, accuracy declines and robustness remain insufficient at longer forecast lead times. Therefore, an evolutionary deep learning model for flood forecasting was developed by integrating time-varying filter-based empirical mode decomposition (TVFEMD), sample entropy-based signal reconstruction (SE)
BACKGROUND: The Leiden group and the Assessment of Spondyloarthritis International Society (ASAS)-MRI study group have proposed definitions for structural (SL) and active (AL) lesions typical for axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) on MRI of the sacroiliac joints (MRI-SIJ).OBJECTIVES: To analyse the predictive validity of proposed SL and AL MRI-SIJ definitions in early axSpA and compare proposed AL wi
Background: Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and substance use disorders (SUD) frequently co-occur in youth. Integrated, trauma-focused treatments are recommended, but evidence in youth is limited and the dynamics of symptom change are poorly understood.Objectives: We investigated within-treatment changes in PTSD and substance use, and their temporal sequencing, in a randomised controlled tria
