Objectives: Many countries have an aging population, and it is thus likely that Parkinson's disease (PD) will become an increasing health problem. It is important to ensure this group can use their resources in the best way possible, including remaining in the work market.

Several methods have been developed to predict effects of amino acid substitutions on protein stability. Benchmark datasets are essential for method training and testing and have numerous requirements including that the data is representative for the investigated phenomenon. Available machine learning algorithms for variant stability have all been trained with ProTherm data. We noticed a number of
BACKGROUND: Residents struggle with advance care planning (ACP) discussions in the inpatient setting, and may not be aware of newer models for ACP that stress the importance of giving prognostic information and making a recommendation about cardiopulmonary resuscitation to patients and families.METHODS: A controlled study of a cognitive model for ACP embedded in a quality improvement (QI) project.

Popular Abstract in Swedish Varje år drabbas cirka 8000 svenska kvinnor av bröstcancer, och antalet nyinsjuknade ökar årligen med någon procent. I Sverige idag finns fler än 90 000 kvinnor som har avslutat eller är under behandling för sjukdomen. Med hjälp av nya återfallsförebyggande läkemedel har prognosen kraftigt förbättrats och 5-årsöverlevnaden är nästan 90 %. Den stora utmaningen i dagens bOne of the great challenges in breast cancer treatment today is to customize adjuvant treatment to each patient’s individual needs. To do this it is necessary to learn more about the prognostic and treatment predictive factors that determine the risk of relapse and response to a certain mode of treatment. This thesis describes studies on the effect of amplified in breast cancer 1 (AIB1), a coactiv
Popular Abstract in Swedish Fritidsaktiviteter bland personer med reumatoid artrit. Vad predikterar och hur mäter man? Fritidsaktiviteter ansågs redan i antikens Grekland leda till inre tillfredsställelse, mening och värde i livet. De genomfördes enbart för sin egen skull och utan tanke på belöning. I början av 1900-talet kunde fritidsaktiviteter endast genomföras av de personer som inte behövde Leisure Activities in Rheumatoid Arthritis. Associated Factors and Assessment.

Popular Abstract in Swedish Vävnadskallikrein (VK) är ett äggvitespjälkande protein som dels kan aktivera vävnadsnedbrytande enzymer som kollagenas och gelatinas och dels spjälkar kininogen till kininer (bradykinin och kallidin). Via bindning till speciella kininreceptorer (B2 receptorer) som finns överallt i kroppen, styr kininerna olika processer i de flesta av kroppens organ och vävnader såsom Tissue kallikrein releases pharmacollogically highly active kinins from kininogen. Many other enzymes may also release kinins. The aim of the study was to clarify the pathophysiological role of tissue kallikrein in acute pancreatitis. Two sensitive and specific radioimmunoassays for porcine and human tissue kallikrein were developed. A large release of tissue kallikrein from the pancreatic gland
In Skaraborg, Sweden, the economic responsibility for tax-financed prescription drug costs was transferred from the regional administrative level to the local level (health care centre; HCC) in 2003.

In-store smart technology is rapidly transforming service delivery and value creation in the retail sector. However, despite these advances, academic acumen of customers' perceived value of their smart service interactions remains tenuous, exposing an important omission in extant literature. Addressing this gap, we conceptualize, operationalize, and validate smart service value (SSV) in the retail
