Background: Randomised controlled trials in surgery can be a challenge to design and conduct, especially when including a non-surgical comparison. As few as half of initiated surgical trials reach their recruitment target, and failure to recruit is cited as the most frequent reason for premature closure of surgical RCTs. The aim of this qualitative evidence synthesis was to identify and synthesise
Introduction: While the relationship between hypertension and incident intracerebral haemorrhage is well established, other risk factors are less clear. This study examined risk factors for primary intracerebral haemorrhage, separately for lobar and non-lobar intracerebral haemorrhage. Patients and methods: Incidence of intracerebral haemorrhage was studied among 28,416 individuals from the popula
Background: Hip and groin problems are common in ice hockey but studies on professional female players are sparse. The available literature describes hip and groin problems by reporting incidence of time-loss injuries and may thereby underestimate the scope of these problems, which are often due to overuse and may not lead to absence from ice hockey participation.Purpose: The purpose of this study
BACKGROUND: Firefighting foam-contaminated ground water, which contains high levels of perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), is frequently found around airports. In 2018 it was detected that employees at a municipal airport in northern Sweden had been exposed to high levels of short-chain PFAS along with legacy PFAS (i.e., PFOA, PFHxS, and PFOS) through drinking water.OBJECTIVES: In this study, we aim
Background: The pathological response to preoperative chemotherapy of colorectal liver metastases (CRLMs) is predictive of long-term prognosis after liver resection. Accurate preoperative assessment of chemotherapy response could enable treatment optimization. Purpose: To investigate whether changes in lesion-apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) measured with diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance
PURPOSE: multiple myeloma is considered an incurable hematologic cancer but a subset of patients can achieve long-term remissions and survival. The present study examines the clinical features of long-term survival as it correlates to depth of disease response. PATIENTS & METHODS: this was a multi-institutional, international, retrospective analysis of high-dose melphalan-autologous stem cell
Objective: To define the role of ultrasound (US) for the assessment of patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in clinical remission, including joint and tendon evaluation. Methods: A multicentre longitudinal study has been promoted by the US Study Group of the Italian Society for Rheumatology. 25 Italian centres participated, enrolling consecutive patients with RA in clinical remission. All patie
The emergence of a monkeypox (MPOX) outbreak in 2022 represented the most recent recognizable public health emergency at a global level. Improving knowledge and attitude towards MPOX, particularly among healthcare workers (HCWs), can be a valuable approach in public health preventive efforts aiming to halt MPOX virus spread. The aim of the current study was to evaluate the knowledge and attitude o
Background: Patients with acute respiratory failure caused by cardiogenic pulmonary edema (CPE) may require mechanical ventilation that can cause further lung damage. Our aim was to determine the impact of ventilatory settings on CPE mortality. Methods: Patients from the LUNG SAFE cohort, a multicenter prospective cohort study of patients undergoing mechanical ventilation, were studied. Relationsh
An individual's right to personal integrity is constitutionally protected in chapter 2 section 6 ‘’The instrument of government’’ (RF) and by convention in article 8 of the ECHR. The law in Sweden does not, however, control drug and alcohol testing. This essay aims to determine how the employer's right to administer alcohol and drug testing and the employee's right to personal integrit
Tidigare forskning är oenig om räntans effekt på bostadspriserna. Vissa menar att räntan har haft en avgörande roll i att bostadspriserna har stigit sedan mitten av 90-talet medan andra attributerar ökningen till andra makroekonomiska faktorer. I och med att räntan har sjunkit under samma period som bostadspriserna har stigit är kopplingen förståelig och lätt att göra, men är den korrekt? Syftet m
The purpose of this Master’s thesis is to analyze the potential of local people to reduce the risk of disasters caused by the drought hazard. Evidence was collected through the application of a multiple case study methodology during field based research conducted in the Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia, one of the most vulnerable countries in terms of drought hazard. The study focused on wa
Many attempts at explainging the difficulty of the discrepancy between between the discourses of the Israeli Arab conflict have been made by many scholars throughout the years. This thesis will focus on two different cases of the greater conflict; the Gaza War in 2008-2009, and the Lebanon War in 2006. The attempt is to analyze the discourse of righteousness in both cases, based on an understandin
Summary: We wanted to determine if there are any associations between birth factors and adult fracture risk. For women only, shorter birth length was associated with lower relative fracture risk. For women and men, individuals who were long at birth as well as tall in adulthood had a substantially higher relative fracture risk. Purpose: We aimed to examine associations between birth anthropometry
