Background and Study Aims: Sedation and monitoring practice during colonoscopy varies between centers and over time. Knowledge of current practice is needed to ensure quality of care and help focus future research. The objective of this study was to examine sedation and monitoring practice in endoscopy centers internationally. Patients and Methods: This observational study included consecutive pat
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study is to investigate the results of first-time surgery for sporadic primary hyperparathyroidism (pHPT) in patients with preoperatively negative sestamibi scintigraphy and ultrasound. METHODS: Data were gathered prospectively in a multicenter database for quality control in parathyroid surgery. Between 2004 and 2008, 3,158 patients underwent first-time surgery for sp

Objective: The aim of current study was to evaluate the changes of health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and its clinical, demographic and socioeconomic determinants during chemotherapy and 4 months follow-up in women with breast cancer using a repeated measures framework. Methods and Materials: A double blind cohort study was performed in 100 breast cancer patients given fluorouracil, doxoru
Popular Abstract in Swedish Med snabbare och pålitligare analysresultat finns stora möjligheter till ett ökat utnyttjande av avfallsresurser för produktion av förnybar energi. Resultat från min forskning gör det möjligt att analysera råvaror för biogasproduktion med större säkerhet och med möjligheten att få upp till nio gånger snabbare resultat. Produktion av biogas har under den senaste tiden öA sustainable treatment of organic wastes, generation of renewable energy, reduction of green house gas emissions, limiting the eutrophication and closing the nutrient cycles are several environmental challenges for which anaerobic digestion may be a suitable solution. There is today a large amount of available organic waste materials that could serve as potential feedstock for biogas production.
PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to present an experimental study which aims at assessing the potentially misleading effect of graphic elements on food packaging. The authors call these elements potentially misleading elements (PMEs) as they can give customers false expectations. They are either highlighted numerical information (30 per cent fibre, 8 per cent fat, 100 per cent natural […]) or p
The mammary parenchyma is a complex arrangement of tissues that can greatly vary among individuals, potentially masking cancers in breast screening images. In this work, we propose a Simplex-based method to simulate anatomical patterns and textures seen in digital breast tomosynthesis. Our approach involves selecting appropriate Simplex noise parameters to represent distinct categories of breast p
Introduction: Knee pain increases the risk of developing chronic widespread pain (CWP) and knee osteoarthritis (KOA). The prevalence of CWP and KOA has increased, and there is a need for early prevention. Therefore, the aim was to examine the associations of health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and lifestyle habits with chronic pain at a two-year follow-up in individuals with knee pain. Methods:
AIMS: Patients with heart failure (HF) and iron deficiency experience poor health-related quality of life (HRQoL). We evaluated the impact of intravenous (IV) ferric carboxymaltose (FCM) vs. placebo on HRQoL for the AFFIRM-AHF population.METHODS AND RESULTS: The baseline 12-item Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire (KCCQ-12), which was completed for 1058 (535 and 523) patients in the FCM and p
Life on Earth is a mosaic distributed across biogeographical regions. Their regional species pools have experienced distinct historical and eco-evolutionary pressures, leading to an expected context-dependent organization of biodiversity. Here we identify a general spatial organization within biogeographical regions of terrestrial and marine vertebrates, invertebrates and plants (more than 30,000
Insects have been recommended by the FAO as a sustainable food alternative to meat. Despite their nutritional quality and sustainability, most Western countries still see insects as belonging far away from the dinner table. Although still a niche market, Denmark has been at the forefront of innovation and adoption of edible insects. I used integral theory to map out the structural, cultural and pe
BACKGROUND: Ageing is associated with circadian rhythm sleep disorders, poor sleep at night, less physical activity and more time spent indoors, affecting the wellbeing of older adults. Their sleep and mood could benefit from daytime outdoor physical activity, exposure to daylight, better indoor lighting and sleep routines. However, changes to routines can be challenging depending on individual be

Cerebral Palsy, commonly referred to as CP, is a neurological disorder that results in loss or impairment of motor function, which affects body movement, muscle control, muscle coordination and balance. In Sweden, about 200 children are diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy every year and the disorder can cause imbalances between the muscles. These imbalances can lead to contractures which is equiva- lent
Background and objectives Baonaise is a novel plant-based savoury sauce. Baonaise sauce base (BSB) is produced from baobab fruit pulp. Creaming and phase separation were observed in Baonasie from previous studies at the company. In this study, concentration, temperature and type of oil, speed and time of mixing were studied to investigate the factors influencing the physical stability of baobab p
