Background: The early management of polytrauma patients with traumatic spinal cord injury (tSCI) is a major challenge. Sparse data is available to provide optimal care in this scenario and worldwide variability in clinical practice has been documented in recent studies. Methods: A multidisciplinary consensus panel of physicians selected for their established clinical and scientific expertise in th

BACKGROUND: To strengthen palliative care for children in the Nordic countries, an updated status of current needs, resources, clinical services, education, and research is necessary to align and consolidate future research. A Nordic research collaboration initiative for children with palliative care needs was assembled in 2023. Building on this initiative, this paper presents an overview of pedia

The exceptional polymorphism observed within genes of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC), a core component of the vertebrate immune system, has long fascinated biologists. The highly polymorphic classical MHC class-I (MHC-I) genes are maintained by pathogen-mediated balancing selection (PMBS), as shown by many sites subject to positive selection, while the more monomorphic non-classical MH

Zone folded coherent acoustic phonons were generated in a multilayered GaSb/InAs epitaxial heterostructure via rapid heating by femtosecond laser pulses. These phonons were probed by means of ultrafast x-ray diffraction. Phonons both from the fundamental acoustic branch and the first back-folded branch were detected. This represents the first clear evidence for phonon branch folding based directly

BACKGROUND: As the global population ages, the demand for palliative care is expected to increase. However, studies show that older patients often receive inadequate palliative care, partly due to healthcare professionals lacking sufficient training and tools to identify and address palliative care needs effectively. This study aims to explore healthcare professionals' experiences regarding facili

INTRODUCTION: While the characteristics and medical management of patients treated with long-term oxygen therapy (LTOT) have transformed during the last decades, the evidence base for LTOT itself remains largely unchanged. This study aimed to compare the risk of hospitalization and death among hypoxemic patients discontinuing LTOT, with that of controls continuing therapy.METHODS: This was a retro

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) accounts for 10-20% of primary breast cancers and often has early relapses and aggressive progression. An activated tumour immune response can be prognostic in treatment-naive and chemotherapy-treated TNBC patients and may be assessed using gene expression data. We derived a stand-alone predictor for a proposed immunomodulatory transcriptional TNBC subtype in a

Popular Abstract in Swedish Prostatacancer är den bland män vanligast förekommande cancerformen i Sverige. Under 2003 diagnostiserades 9882 nya fall. Sjukdomen drabbar framför allt äldre individer; många män är 70 år gamla eller äldre när de får diagnosen. Sjukdomsförloppet kan vara mycket varierande. Hos många är tumörtillväxten långsam, men sjukdomen kan också utvecklas snabbt. Många patienter lConcentrations of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) and human kallikrein 2 (hK2) were investigated in blood samples that had been obtained from men who were diagnosed with prostate cancer (PCa) decades later. The studies were based on a cohort comprising 22,444 men who, in 1974?1986, were early middle aged and represented a non-PCa-screened population. The results clearly demonstrate a very strong c

Popular Abstract in Swedish De fyra studier som ingår i denna avhandling är gjorda för att undersöka eventuella oönskade effekter av läkemedel på näthinnan. Näthinnan är en del av det centrala nervsystemet och känslig för toxiska substanser. För att skydda näthinnan så finns två barriärer – en yttre och en inre blod–näthinne- barriär. Dessa barriärer består av strukturer som håller samman celler iThe adverse effects of drugs in the eye are not easily detected, and the underlying pathogenesis not fully understood. The effects of four different kinds of drugs have been investigated in the rabbit eye, using electroretinography, ocular examination and histochemical methods. Rifabutin is a broad spectrum antibiotic with known ocular adverse effects (corneal opacities, uveitis and vascular ret

[Context and motivation]} Internet of Things (IoT) is becoming common throughout everyday lives. However, the interaction is often different from when using e.g. computers and other smart devices. Furthermore, an IoT device is often dependent on several other systems, heavily impacting the user experience (UX). Finally, the domain is changing rapidly and is driven by technological innovation.

For the Phase-II Upgrade of the ATLAS Detector [1], its Inner Detector, consisting of silicon pixel, silicon strip and transition radiation sub-detectors, will be replaced with an all new 100% silicon tracker, composed of a pixel tracker at inner radii and a strip tracker at outer radii. The future ATLAS strip tracker will include 11,000 silicon sensor modules in the central region (barrel) and 7,

Popular Abstract in Swedish Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning av avhandlingen "Invading Herbivory. Effects of the Golden Apple Snail (Pomacea canaliculata) in Asian wetlands". 1980 förde några affärsmän ett okänt antal individer av den sydamerikanska vattensnäckan Pomacea canaliculata till Taiwan. Snäckorna skulle odlas i dammar och säljas som människoföda på marknader i Asien och överskottet skThe South American golden apple snail (Pomacea canaliculata) was intentionally introduced to aquacultures in South East Asia to produce snails for human consumption, but the aquatic snails soon escaped and started to consume large amounts of rice seedlings. The aim of this thesis was to quantify the effects of this invasive herbivore on aquatic plants in natural wetlands since previous research h

Popular Abstract in Swedish Den elektriska aktiviteten i hjärtats förmak vid kroniskt förmaksflimmer Bakgrund: Det mänskliga hjärtmuskeln består av fyra delar som var och en omsluter ett hålrum, vänster och höger förmak samt vänster och höger kammare. Ett hjärtslag, dvs den sammandragning av hjärtmuskeln som pumpar runt blodet i kroppen, utlöses normalt av att en elektrisk impuls bildas i sinuskChronic atrial fibrillation (CAF), with a prevalence progressively increasing with age, is one of the most common cardiac arrhythmias in man and associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Previous studies have shown that, in animals as well as in man, experimental atrial fibrillation is based on different types and dimensions of intra-atrial electrical re-entry. However, there is a lack of

Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingen har flera uppgifter, som på olika sätt hör ihop. Den första uppgiften går ut på att undersöka samvetskonflikter i det svenska samhället. I denna typ av konflikt är samvete och samvetsfrihet centrala begrepp och de är viktiga för att förstå och ta ställning i konflikterna. Den andra uppgiften blir därför att undersöka och förstå begreppet samvete och ge ett The aim of this study is to describe and analyse four conflicts and two concepts. Four conflicts of conscience found in Swedish society are studied in the second chapter. 2.2 - the state’s requirement that all male citizens do military service and the citizen’s right to refuse to do military service. 2.3 - obligatory course requirements and the college student’s right to refuse participation in c

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

Health information system (HIS) refers to a data collection and management system that supports the use of health information for planning, management and decision making. Robust HISs are required for the proper management of health data to produce and share high-quality health information for informing planning and decision making at different levels of the health system.
