The aim of this prospective substudy was to estimate the cost-effectiveness of treating paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF) with radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFA) compared with antiarrhythmic drugs (AADs) as first-line treatment.

Thrips (Thysanoptera) are tiny insects that produce anal secretions whenthreatened. Several studies have shown that, depending on the species,the droplets may contain alarm pheromones and/or repellents againstenemies. In the eusocial gall-inducing thrips Kladothrips intermedius bothlarvae and adults produce such droplets. There are two castes of adults inthis species, soldiers (the sub-fertile and

BACKGROUND: T-wave alternans (TWA) is associated with prognosis after myocardial infarction (MI), however its link to the extent of ischemic injury has not been clarified. We analyzed the course of TWA and its relation to myocardial damage in experimental myocardial infarction. METHODS: In 21 pigs, infarction was induced by 40-minute long balloon inflation in LAD under continuous 12-lead ECG monit

The first measurement of neutron emission in electromagnetic dissociation of Pb-208 nuclei at the LHC is presented. The measurement is performed using the neutron zero degree calorimeters of the ALICE experiment, which detect neutral particles close to beam rapidity. The measured cross sections of single and mutual electromagnetic dissociation of Pb nuclei at root s(NN) = 2.76 TeV with neutron emi

To investigate and describe the content, dissemination and effects of case management interventions for informal caregivers of older adults, focusing on outcomes related to patients' activities of daily living, nutrition assessment, pain measurement, depression, length of stay and to caregivers' satisfaction and difficulties.

The ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider is used to search for high-mass resonances decaying to dielectron or dimuon final states. Results are presented from an analysis of proton-proton (pp) collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 8 TeV corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 20.3 fb(-1) in the dimuon channel. A narrow resonance with Standard Model Z couplings to fermions is excluded

A search is performed for flavour-changing neutral currents in the decay of a top quark to an up-type (c, u) quark and a Higgs boson, where the Higgs boson decays to two photons. The proton-proton collision data set used corresponds to 4.7 fb(-1) at root s = 7TeV and 20.3 fb(-1) at root s = 8TeV collected by the ATLAS experiment at the LHC. Top quark pair events are searched for in which one top q

L-DOPA is the gold-standard treatment for Parkinson's disease (PD), but induces troublesome dyskinesia after prolonged treatment. This is associated with the 'false neurotransmitter' conversion of L-DOPA to dopamine by serotonin neurons projecting from the raphe to the dorsal striatum. Reducing their activity by targeting pre-synaptic 5-HT1A receptors should thus be an attractive therapeutic strat

We determined whether single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) previously associated with diabetogenic traits improve the discriminative power of a type 2 diabetes genetic risk score. Participants (n = 2,751) were genotyped for 73 SNPs previously associated with type 2 diabetes, fasting glucose/insulin concentrations, obesity or lipid levels, from which five genetic risk scores (one for each of the

De flesta nya patienter med autoimmun (typ 1) diabetes i åldern 1–19 år insjuknar under puberteten. TEDDY-studien följer barn med förhöjd ärftlig risk för autoimmun (typ 1) diabetes från 3 månader till 15 års ålder. Detta för att ta reda på vilka omgivningsfaktorer som kan förklara att vissa barn utvecklar en eller flera autoantikropp riktade mot antingen insulin (IAA), GAD65 (GADA), Islet antigen

I studier som TEDDY-studien är det viktigt att korrekt kunna registrera vilka sorters mediciner och kosttillskott våra försökspersoner intar.I nuläget finns det inget internationellt standardiserat sätt att samla dessa data, då ett antal olika databaser använder olika definitioner för vad en medicin eller ett kosttillskott är.TEDDY-studien har bestämt sig för att använda RxNorm-databasen för att k

Inom forskningen är det värdefullt att förutspå vilka deltagare som kan komma att hoppa av studien.Vilka faktorer som påverkar tidiga avhopp (inom ett år) har TEDDY tidigare publicerat.Senare avhopp undersöktes. Familjer som var aktiva i studien de tre första åren jämfördes med familjer som hoppade av under andra eller tredje året.Få sociodemografiska faktorer kunde förutspå dessa avhopp.Beteende-

The UN Sustainable Development Goals provide inspiration for current and future funding proposals. Many opportunities exist to address affordable and clean energy (Goal 7). But, universities must balance academic freedom and the urgency required to achieve these goals, while being critical, entering politicised arenas, and remaining a legitimate institution. “The workshop offers a deepened discuss

Misleading health information remains a central concern in medical sociology and public health due to its harmful effects on individuals and society. As health information-seeking increasingly shifts to digital platforms, Large Language Models (LLMs)—now commonly used as search engines—have intensified concerns about the spread of health misinformation. This study examines the potential for LLMs t

This study explores disaster communication for people experiencing homelessness in the capital region of Iceland. Traditional methods often fail to reach vulnerable populations who require alternative approaches effectively. The objective is to understand and improve disaster communication for people experiencing homelessness and identify possible improvements. To address this, in-depth interviews

Understanding how plants allocate time between the green-up and senescence phases within a growing season is critical for assessing vegetation responses to environmental change. This thesis investigates the spatiotemporal patterns of the time allocation fraction, defined as the ratio of green-up duration to senescence duration (RGS), across the Tibetan Plateau from 1982 to 2018. Phenological metri
