Background: Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis (PSC) is a hepatobiliary disease closely related to ulcerative colitis (UC). In PSC patients, colectomy has been linked to improved prognosis, especially following liver transplantation. This suggests an involvement of the gut-liver axis in PSC etiology. Objective: We aimed to investigate the association between colectomy and the risk of future PSC in an

Despite abundant knowledge about the relationship between inflammation and coronary atherosclerosis, it is still unknown whether systemic inflammation measured as high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) is associated with coronary atherosclerosis in a general population. This study aimed to examine the association between hsCRP and coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA)-detected coron

Background: Women with breast cancer have different chances of surviving their disease, depending on where they live. Variations in survival may stem from unequal access to prompt diagnosis, treatment and care. Implementation of the right to health may help remedy such inequalities. The right to health is enshrined in international human rights law, notably Article 12 of the International Covenant

Background: The risk of inflammatory diseases is sex-dependent, but it remains unknown whether this is due to the impact of sex hormones or sex chromosomes. Transgender individuals represent a unique cohort for studying the relative influence of endocrine and chromosomal factors. Here we compared serum levels of B-cell activating-factor (BAFF) and tumor necrosis factor (TNF) in transgender men (TM

Objectives: The aim was to explore the association between neighborhood deprivation and all-cause mortality and cause-specific mortalities in patients with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. A better understanding of this potential relationship may help to identify patients with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder with an increased mortality risk. Methods: This nationwide study included practicall

Consumers are pushing for higher data rates to support more services that are introduced in mobile applications. As an example, a few years ago video-on-demand was only accessed through landlines, but today wireless devices are frequently used to stream video. To support this, more flexible network solutions have merged in 4G, introducing new technical problems to the mobile terminal. New techniqu

Background: Diet has a great impact on the risk of developing features of metabolic syndrome (MetS), type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and cardiovascular diseases (CVD). We evaluated whether a long-term healthy Nordic diet (ND) can modify the expression of inflammation and lipid metabolism-related genes in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) during a 2-h oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) in

This study reports the prevalence and prognostic impact of right bundle branch block (RBBB) and left bundle branch block (LBBB) in the admission electrocardiogram (ECG) of comatose survivors of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). The present study is part of the predefined electrocardiographic substudy of the prospective randomized target temperature management trial, which found no benefit of

Objective. To study longterm work disability and possible predictors in newly diagnosed patients with primary Sjogren syndrome (pSS). Methods. Because we wanted to include only patients with full work availability potential, eligible patients were aged 18-62 years. Fifty-one patients (mean age 46 yrs, range 18-61 yrs, 50 women) diagnosed with pSS between January 2001 and December 2012 were include

A new global atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) real-time forecast is now available as part of the pre- operational Monitoring of Atmospheric Composition and Climate – Interim Implementation (MACC-II) service us- ing the infrastructure of the European Centre for Medium- Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) Integrated Forecast- ing System (IFS). One of the strengths of the CO2 fore- casting system is that

This study used the urban context of Brunnshög, Sweden as a real case study to assess non-visual daylight conditions in urban environments. More precisely, the work was focusing on how the light spectrum – through surrounding façade colour and window type – can have an impact on the circadian potential. A one-bedroom apartment opening onto a courtyard on the ground floor and the same apartment on

Cytostatika är läkemedel som används för att behandla cancer genom att hämma eller stoppa celldelning. De används även som immunhämmande medel, till exempel vid organtransplantationer och autoimmuna sjukdomar. Eftersom dessa läkemedel påverkar cellers tillväxt kan de vara skadliga även i mycket små mängder om de hamnar i miljön. Cytostatika har upptäckts i ytvatten, grundvatten och dricksvatten i Introduction: Cytostatic pharmaceuticals are increasingly detected in the aquatic environment, raising concerns due to their persistence and toxicity. Background: Conventional wastewater treatment processes do not effectively remove these compounds. Advanced oxidation processes, such as ozonation, are needed to degrade cytostatic pharmaceuticals during wastewater treatment. However, these process

The effects of visual feedback in writing have mainly been investigated in the context of L1 handwriting and findings generally point to the detrimental effects of visual suppression, in terms of lower quality of the text, shorter clauses and lack of coherence. An investigation of visual feedback effects in computer-based L2 text production has not been undertaken yet. More specifically, findings

Purpose: The purposes are to evaluate the change in mammographic density within individuals across screening rounds using automatic density software, to evaluate whether a change in breast density is associated with a future breast cancer diagnosis, and to provide insight into breast density evolution. Approach: Mammographic breast density was analyzed in women screened in Malmö, Sweden, between 2

Coffee is epidemiologically linked to health benefits and risks. Coffee is thought to be a diuretic. However, it can still contribute to daily fluid intake. Vasopressin is the most important physiological regulator of body fluid balance and diuresis. This study aimed to map the effects of coffee intake on vasopressin concentration. In the population-based cross-sectional Malmö Offspring Study (n =

Objectives To study the effect of a progressively enhanced rest–shade–hydration–hygiene (RSHH) intervention on kidney injury and inflammation biomarkers, and rates of clinical acute kidney injury (AKI) in Nicaraguan sugarcane workers with a very high rate of chronic kidney disease of non-traditional origin (CKDnt). Methods We analysed serum creatinine and C-reactive protein (CRP) and leukocyturia

AimsDyspnoea accounts for nearly 5% of emergency department (ED) visits. Our aim was to describe the in-hospital and long-term outcomes of patients admitted to the ED for dyspnoea, based on their underlying aetiology, and to determine if prognosis varies according to the hospitalization setting.MethodsWe analyzed 18 903 consecutive patients (48% male, average age 73 years) hospitalized after an ED

As requirements regarding energy efficiency are getting tougher, buildings in the arctic, as well as the rest of the world, need to be more energy efficient without compromising a good indoor climate. This paper presents measured moisture supply and occupancy level in a Swedish Arctic multi-family building. Measurements were done during one year with readings every 30 minutes in a building consist
