OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to provide novel comparative insights on the contributions of injury deaths to the changes in sex gaps in life expectancy (SGLE) and sex gaps in life disparity (SGLD) across Nordic countries.STUDY DESIGN: Retrospective demographic analysis of aggregated mortality data.METHODS: To compute life expectancy (LE)/life disparity (LD), annual data on age- and se

Plasma circulating cell-free mitochondrial DNA (ccf-mtDNA) is an immunogenic molecule and a novel biomarker of psychiatric disorders. Some previous studies reported increased levels of ccf-mtDNA in unmedicated depression and recent suicide attempters, while other studies found unchanged or decreased ccf-mtDNA levels in depression. Inconsistent findings across studies may be explained by small samp

The medial temporal lobe (MTL) is a nidus for neurodegenerative pathologies and therefore an important region in which to study polypathology. We investigated associations between neurodegenerative pathologies and the thickness of different MTL subregions measured using high-resolution post-mortem MRI. Tau, TAR DNA-binding protein 43 (TDP-43), amyloid-β and α-synuclein pathology were rated on a sc

Background Serological response and association to clinical manifestation is important for understanding the pathogenesis of COVID-19. Materials and methods A prospective observational study was conducted where antibody responses of IgG and IgA towards SARS-CoV-2 spike protein were studied over time in patients with COVID-19. Possible associations between antibody titers and outcome were analyzed.

Popular Abstract in Swedish Från mitten av 1970-talet utvecklades i Sverige en ny form av behandling för missbrukare av narkotika och alkohol: Miljöterapi med psykoterapi. Miljöterapin innebar en längre tids drogfri vistelse på behandlingshem där ett konstruktivt, bejakande och människovärdigt klimat avsågs vara behandlande dygnet runt. Psykoterapin var i regel schemalagd transaktionsanalytisk (TAThis monograph studies the outcomes of transactional analysis (TA) psychotherapy with addicts of heavy drugs in long time residential treatment (one year or more) at Swedish therapeutic communities (TCs) during the 1990s. Two sets of data were obtained: The primary material concerned results of approximately one year of TA-therapy; the secondary specific TA-therapy results versus total mileau ther

Significant faunal changes reported fromrecent, coastal environments,which are not directly influenced by urban and industrial impact, are rarely seen. In Gullmar Fjord on the Swedish west coast, a significant foraminiferal fauna change occurred in connectionwith severe low-oxygen conditions that evolved in thewinter of 1979/1980. A foraminiferal fauna marked by common Skagerrak–Kattegat species,

Background: Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) is an effective obesity treatment in adults and has become established in adolescents. Lower adherence to supplementation in adolescents confers a risk for long-term nutritional deficiencies. Objectives: To assess adherence to supplementation, micronutrient intake, and biochemistry in adolescents through 5 years after RYGB. Setting: University hospitals,

Statin dosage in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and concomitant kidney dysfunction is a clinical dilemma. We studied discontinuation during the first year after an AMI and long-term outcome in patients receiving high versus low-moderate intensity statin treatment, in relation to kidney function. For the intention-to-treat analysis (ITT-A), we included all patients admitted to Swed

Increased interest in hemicelluloses as a renewable source of biopolymers has resulted in an interest in hemicelluloses in process streams in pulp mills. The aim of this study was to compare potential positions for the withdrawal of hemicelluloses from mechanical pulp mills. Samples were withdrawn at a total of fourteen positions from two thermomechanical and two chemi-thermomechanical pulp mills.

New students should receive an introduction which informs them about what is expected of them and the support that is available. This improves their chances of thriving and succeeding in their studies. Below is a checklist that includes questions, links and tips for those who manage, plan or hold introductions. This checklist can act as support for those who are in some way involved in introductio

Antibiotikaresistens är ett fenomen där bakterier utvecklar motståndskraft mot antibiotika. Detta kan leda till svåra infektioner och sjukdom i brist på behandlingsalternativ. Det är därför viktigt att utveckla nya typer av antibiotika som angriper bakterier på sätt som skiljer sig från tidigare varianter av antibiotika. En sådan ny typ av metod utvecklades i denna studie genom att stödja immunförAntibiotic resistance is a threat that could result in severe consequences for the public health. The synthesis of new antibiotics is therefore increasingly more important. Sialic acid is a sugar which aids bacterial growth, but the opposite effect could occur if bacteria were prevented from utilizing this sugar. This could be achieved through inhibition of pmSiaT, a protein which transports siali

The currant bud moth, Euhyponomeutoides albithoracellus, the currant shoot borer, Lampronia capitella and the currant clearwing, Synanthedon tipuliformis, are destructive pests on currants in the Nordic countries, but detailed information about their relative abundance in commercial crop fields is lacking. We used pheromone-baited monitoring traps to analyse the presence and flight period of the t

Aim: In uncertain clinical situations, such as assessing the risk of exacerbation of apical periodontitis in root-­ filled teeth, un-dergraduate students can benefit from being trained to reflect. This study aimed to explore how students specifically reflectedon clinical experiences in relation to uncertainty when assessing a case involving a root-­ filled tooth with apical periodontitis.Methodolo

Objective Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and osteoarthritis (OA) are globally prevalent chronic diseases that affect millions of individuals in ageing populations. Hip and knee replacements are well established and effective treatments in patients suffering from end-stage OA. Understanding how T2DM influences the outcomes of these surgeries is important for optimising patient care and improving s

Purpose: The PET Response Criteria in Solid Tumours (PERCIST) 1.0 provides a standardized framework for evaluating treatment response using [18F]fluorodeoxyglucose ([18F]FDG) positron emission tomography – computed tomography (PET-CT), but its clinical use is hindered by manual complexity. This study presents coPERCIST, an artificial intelligence (AI)-assisted module integrated into the RECOMIA pl

Background. Adults with intellectual disability (ID) experience marked mental health inequities, yet population-wide estimates that capture both primary- and specialist-care diagnoses remain scarce. Methods. Using nationwide Swedish registries, including primary care, specialist, inpatient, prescription drug, criminal, and suspicion registers, we included all individuals born in Sweden between 195
