BACKGROUND: Coronary atherosclerosis detected by imaging is a marker of elevated cardiovascular risk. However, imaging involves large resources and exposure to radiation. The aim was, therefore, to test whether nonimaging data, specifically data that can be self-reported, could be used to identify individuals with moderate to severe coronary atherosclerosis.METHODS AND RESULTS: We used data from t
Background: To assess whether retrograde cerebral perfusion reduces neurological injury and mortality in patients undergoing surgery for acute type A aortic dissection. Methods: Single-center, retrospective, observational study including all patients undergoing acute type A aortic dissection repair with deep hypothermic circulatory arrest between January 1998 and December 2022 with or without the
Since its public release on November 30, 2022, ChatGPT has shown promising potential in diverse healthcare applications despite ethical challenges, privacy issues, and possible biases. The aim of this study was to identify and assess the most influential publications in the field of ChatGPT utility in healthcare using bibliometric analysis. The study employed an advanced search on three databases,
Context. Gaia's readout window strategy is challenged by very dense fields in the sky. Therefore, in addition to standard Gaia observations, full Sky Mapper (SM) images were recorded for nine selected regions in the sky. A new software pipeline exploits these Service Interface Function (SIF) images of crowded fields (CFs), making use of the availability of the full two-dimensional (2D) information
Abstract Host genes for resistance to pathogens and parasites have been a subject of long-term research efforts and continue to be a hot subject in biology. Many important theories have been hypothesized through the years, and they are now being complemented by new and more detailed ones leading to increased understanding of the complex dynamics between host life history strategies and the select
Transposable elements compose roughly 50% of the human genome and have been proven to have a great impact on the genome as a source of genetic variation. Because of this they are normally silenced by various mechanisms one of which being CpG DNA methylation. In this study We analysed the insertional landscapes and methylation levels of reference LINE-1 elements in humans, chimpanzees and rhesus mo
Airborne viral diseases have long been neglected but with the recent devastating impact of the COVID-19 pandemic serving as a catalyst for new science, additional viruses are examined. This thesis investigates the infectivity of Rhinovirus, the virus causing common cold, in differently sized bioaerosols. The experimental setup utilized a bio-aerosol nebulizing generator (BANG) to generate droplets
In recent years there has been much attention paid to corporate scandals, and in the Swedish media the Skandia incidents have become a serial as, years after the incidents was revealed, sentences are passed on those involved in the scandal. The former president and vice president of the joint-stock company Skandia were both prosecuted for the economic crime gross breach of faith committed by an ag
Regleringen på aktiemarknaden grundar sig på tanken att samtliga marknadsaktörer ska behandlas lika och få tillgång till samma information samtidigt. Art. 17 MAR utgör exempel på reglering som syftar till att säkerställa denna likabehandling. Artikeln stadgar skyldighet för noterade bolag att offentliggöra insiderinformation och medger endast undantag under särskilda omständigheter. Övervakningen The regulations in the stock market are based on the idea that all market participants shall be treated equally and get access to the same information simultaneously. Article 17 in MAR constitutes an example of regulation that aims at ensuring equality between the market participants. According to the article, listed companies are obligated to disclose inside information and exceptions are only al
En grundläggande princip i det svenska rättssystemet är rätten till en rättvis rättegång inom skälig tid. Principen innebär bland annat att domstolsförfarandet måste uppfylla vissa krav i form av rättssäkerhetsgarantier. I kommersiella avtal förekommer ofta att parterna gemensamt beslutar hur tvister dem emellan ska lösas. Det innebär att parterna avtalar bort vissa delar av de krav på förfarandetA fundamental principle in the Swedish judicial system is the right to a fair trial within reasonable time. The principle means that the judicial procedure must uphold some procedural guarantees. In commercial contracts the parties often decide together how disputes arising between them shall be settled. That means that the parties through the contract are giving up parts of the procedural guarant
Arktis står inför stora förändringar i samband med rådande klimat- och miljöförändringar, där de arktiska kusterna är utsatta. Förändringar i temperatur, havsnivå, stormar och havsisens utbredning är några av de faktorer som spelar in i hur kusterna och stränderna kan förändras. Syftet med studien är att först översiktligt se vilka kustmorfologiska förändringar som sker i Arktis idag och huruvida The Arctic is facing great changes due to current climate changes, where the Arctic coasts are especially vulnerable. Changes in temperature, mean sea level, storms and sea ice extent are some of the factors that shape how the coasts and beaches can be changed. The purpose of this study is firstly to examine what changes the Arctic coasts are experiencing today and whether they can be correlated t
Purpose: Improvements in mortality rate of glioblastoma patients have been limited during the past decades, due to the tumor’s rapidly growing and infiltrative behavior and resistance to current therapy. Recent findings show that higher brain mean dose strongly correlates with inferior overall survival and that local recurrences mainly occur centrally in previously irradiated regions. This project
Gränsen mellan spel- och tävlingsvinster kan vara svår att dra, men det är ack så viktigt att den dras korrekt. Skatterättsligt skiljer sig nämligen behandlingen av de båda vinstformerna åt markant, där tävlingsvinster som huvudregel beskattas av vinnaren. Spelvinster medför däremot inte någon individbeskattning, utan här får istället arrangören vara den bidragande aktören. Avvägningen mellan spelThe line between gambling and competition wins can be difficult to draw, but it is important that it is drawn correctly. In fact, tax law differs significantly in the treatment of the two forms of profit, where competition winnings are, as a general rule, taxed by the winner. Gambling winnings on the other hand, do not entail any individual taxation. Here, the organizer is instead the contributing
Changed land-use, nitrogen deposition, climate change, and the spread of non-native species have repeatedly been reported as the main drivers of floristic changes in northern Europe. However, the relevance of the geographical scale at which floristic changes are observed, is less studied and understood. Here, I assess the changes in species richness and species composition in the central parts of
Offentlig upphandling handlar om hur den offentliga sektorn ska agera vid inköp och har därmed en betydande påverkan på samhällsekonomin. Essentiella samhällsfunktioner som exempelvis sjukvård och skolor tillgodoses genom offentlig upphandling. Eftersom inköpen görs via skattemedel har samhällsmedborgare ett intresse av att förfarandet går rätt till. Vidare har leverantörer ett intresse av att förPublic procurement concerns how the public sector should act when making purchases and therefore has a great impact on the national economy. Fundamental societal functions such as healthcare and education are supported through public procurement. Because these purchases are made using tax revenue, citizens have an interest in ensuring that the procedure is conducted properly. Moreover, suppliers h
Immunotherapy utilizes the patient’s own immune system for the treatment of cancer. Due to exceptional antigen-presentation capacity Dendritic Cells (DCs) have great potential for cancer immunotherapy. Using direct cellular reprogramming our group has identified a combination of transcription factors, PU.1, IRF8, and BATF3 that reprograms mouse and human fibroblasts and a range of cancer cell line

Equal capacity in the activities of a production line is of great importance when a good material flow is desired. This is one of the basic ideas of the Lean philosophy, a mindset every modern company strives to follow. In a production with unequal capacity, the company might have to build up inventory to be able to meet the costumer demand. Inventory is a recognized waste in a production and a co
