Purpose: To suggest a more precise tool when assessing the risk of contrast-medium-induced nephropathy (CIN), i.e. the ratio between contrast medium (CM) dose expressed in grams of iodine (g-I) and estimated glomerular filtration rate in ml/min (eGFR; based on equations using serum-creatinine (s-Cr), weight, height, age, and/or sex), here named I-dose/GFR ratio. Material and Methods: A Medline sea
Although variation in effect sizes and predicted values among studies of similar phenomena is inevitable, such variation far exceeds what might be produced by sampling error alone. One possible explanation for variation among results is differences among researchers in the decisions they make regarding statistical analyses. A growing array of studies has explored this analytical variability in dif
Importance: Depressive symptoms are associated with cognitive decline in older individuals. Uncertainty about underlying mechanisms hampers diagnostic and therapeutic efforts. This large-scale study aimed to elucidate the association between depressive symptoms and amyloid pathology. Objective: To examine the association between depressive symptoms and amyloid pathology and its dependency on age,
IMPORTANCE COVID-19 can lead to long-term cardiopulmonary symptoms and is associated with coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD). However, long-term data on CMD after severe COVID-19 are lacking. OBJECTIVE To investigate long-term left ventricular function and the presence of CMD after severe COVID-19. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS This case-control study was conducted among patients at a si
So far, the semiconductor nanowire research area has mainly delivered results on growth procedures and related material properties. As the development lately has been successful in producing novel nanowire-based structures for optical or electronic applications, the time is ripe to review the device work that has been done and in some cases has produced devices ready for the market. In this chapte
The mast cell mediator histamine is involve in T2D pathogenicity Diabetes mellitus is a common metabolic disorder which is characterized by high glucose levels in blood and urine. Diabetes is one of the most expanding diseases in the world today. There are 2 major types of diabetes; type 2 diabetes (T2D) contributes with up to 90% of all diabetes subtypes. Patients with T2D compose up to 150 mill
BACKGROUND: The global prevalence of dementia is rapidly expanding and is expected to triple by 2050. Approximately 45 % of dementia cases are estimated to be attributable to potentially modifiable risk factors. Identifying how these factors contribute to specific brain pathologies may improve strategies to reduce dementia incidence.OBJECTIVES, DESIGN, SETTING: The aim of this study was to identif
Importance Women with adverse pregnancy outcomes have higher subsequent cardiovascular risks, but their long-term risk of atrial fibrillation (AF) and potential causality are unclear. A better understanding of such risks is needed to identify women with high risk early in life and guide interventions to prevent AF and its complications. Objective To determine long-term risks of AF associated with
Importance: Traditional adoption studies examine disorder-to-disorder parent-offspring transmission. The role of parental genetic risk in offspring disorder transmission can capture indirect genetic effects from parental genotype to parental phenotype to offspring risk. Objective: To assess the relative importance of genetic and rearing effects from paternal family genetic risk scores (FGRSs) in 3
Background: Ambulatory oxygen therapy is prescribed for patients with chronic lung diseases who experience exertional hypoxemia. However, available devices may not adequately meet user requirements, and their performance characteristics are heterogeneous. Objective: This study aims to identify devices available for delivery of ambulatory oxygen therapy, the technologies that they use to generate o
Uppsatsen behandlar konflikten mellan yttrandefrihet och personlig integritet, särskilt i relation till internetbaserade söktjänster som publicerar offentliga handlingar med personuppgifter, exempelvis brottmålsdomar. Dessa söktjänster har frivilligt grundlagsskydd genom utgivningsbevis och omfattas därmed inte av dataskyddsförordningen regler, vilket skapat en rättslig gråzon i svensk rätt. FrågaThis essay addresses the conflict between freedom of expression and the right to data protection, particularly in relation to internet-based databases that publish public records containing personal data, such as criminal court judgements. These databases have usually obtained constitutional protection through voluntarily publishing certificates and are therefore not subject to the provisions of t
Municipal wastewater contains a lot of compounds that could be seen as resources. Nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium are common ingredients in fertilizers and can all be found in wastewater. Nowadays only a small part of the nutrients found in wastewater are used on arable land. Urine contains the most of the nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium secreted by humans. Source separation of urine is a wa
Importance: The incidences of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and autism spectrum disorder (ASD) have increased markedly over recent decades, raising concerns about the emergence of new risk factors. Current literature typically attributes increased rates to changes in diagnostic practice, stigmatization, and awareness, but critically few studies have explored changes in underlying
Importance: Blood-based biomarkers (BBM) provide minimally invasive, scalable, lower-cost tools for identifying neurodegenerative diseases, but prospective data on their clinical validity in memory clinic settings are limited. Objective: To evaluate how a tailored plasma BBM panel (phosphorylated tau 181 [pTau181], glial fibrillary acidic protein [GFAP], and neurofilament light chain [NfL]) during
