A new method to determine the concentration of the free protein S in plasma is described. It is an enzyme-linked ligandsorbent assay (ELSA) which utilises the protein S binding capacity of the natural ligand C4b-binding protein (C4BP) to capture the free protein S from plasma samples. The use of C4BP as ligand in the assay is possible due to the high affinity (Kd = 0.1 nM) of the interaction betwe
Access to safe drinking water and sanitation is essential for both individual and population health as well as for quality of life and dignity. The UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) require nations to ensure adequate water supply and sanitation for all. For Kazakhstan, this means that rural areas will need a much stronger attention as they have been rather neglected in efforts to comply with
Background: Targeted temperature management is recommended after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest and may be achieved using a variety of cooling devices. This study was conducted to explore the performance and outcomes for intravascular versus surface devices for targeted temperature management after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. Method: A retrospective analysis of data from the Targeted Temperatu
While workplace physical exercise can help manage musculoskeletal disorders, less is known about psychosocial effects of such interventions. This aim of this study was to investigate the effect of workplace physical exercise on psychosocial factors among workers with chronic musculoskeletal pain.The trial design was a 2-armed parallel-group randomized controlled trial with allocation concealment.
Background: Since 1994 the need for joint sexual and reproductive health (SRH) responsibility between men and women to achieve gender equality and reduce health inequalities has received more attention. The focus has been on young people as they transition into adulthood and are vulnerable to the negative consequences of early pregnancy and childbirth, STIs and early parenthood. Traditionally, con
Despite the increasing level and number of techniques deployed to generate more robust, better-producing microbial cell factories for production of chemicals, the number of products that reach commercial feasibility is still very low. Many hurdles come along the way as it has been observed that strains designed in the laboratory do not perform as expected in industrial-scale bioreactors. For insta
It’s not unusual for young people these days to take and edit a selfie. With the rise of consumerist culture and the popularity of mobile Internet, nowadays selfie applications, including beauty cameras and photo-beautification applications, have become the most well-accepted products/brands among Chinese women, who have grown accustomed to showing only one exquisitely edited face in digital photo
The Iron Closet has always been deep, and although never leading to Narnia it has on occasions had the potential to be a one-way ticket to a forced labour camp. After the decline of the Soviet Union, however, the Western world rejoiced; the second parenthesis had been set out and we now lived in the main narrative again where everything ought to make sense. Countries in the post-Soviet space would
Popular science summary: Healing: what we can learn from white mice Stem cells are a cell type responsible for building the body. They are the ancestor cells from which all the cells making up the body’s tissues are created. Stem cells play an important role in maintaining the body in shape by repairing damages as they occur during life. We believe that if we had a better understanding of how t
Title Creating a new food category - Insights from stakeholders in the Swedish market Author Silvia D. García González Division Packaging Logistics, Department of Design Sciences, Faculty of Engineering, Lund University Supervisors Märit Beckeman and Karla Marie Paredes Issue of Study The food industry faces a large number of challenges. For that, companies need to understand the dynamic
Purpose: To identify strategies that can be applied to achieve a sustainable position when the equilibrium state has changed. Problem: Research question 1: What factors should be analyzed to predict how disruptive innovations change market structures? Research question 2: What strategies can an innovator apply to achieve a sustainable position at a new equilibrium? Research question 3: How are the
Understanding and quantifying the global methane (CH4) budget is important for assessing realistic pathways to mitigate climate change. Atmospheric emissions and concentrations of CH4 continue to increase, making CH4 the second most important human-influenced greenhouse gas in terms of climate forcing, after carbon dioxide (CO2). The relative importance of CH4 compared to CO2 depends on its shorte
Background: Acute coronary syndromes most commonly arise from thrombosis of lipid-rich coronary atheromas that have large plaque burden despite angiographically appearing mild. Objectives: This study sought to examine the outcomes of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) of non–flow-limiting vulnerable plaques. Methods: Three-vessel imaging was performed with a combination intravascular ultraso
Background: 27-Hydroxycholesterol (27HC) stimulates estrogen receptor-positive (ER+) breast cancer (BC) progression. Inhibiting the sterol 27-hydroxylase (CYP27A1) abrogates these growth-promoting effects of 27HC in mice. However, the significance of CYP27A1 expression on BC biology and prognosis is unclear. Methods: Intratumoral CYP27A1 expression in invasive BC was measured by immunohistochemist
The EDI Guidelines (https://www.ediguidelines.se), an outcome of the Swedishgovernment funded practice-based school research project “The Digital Student -Challenges and Opportunities with the Computer as an Instrument in Music Education” (2021-2024), provide a valuable resource for integrating Electronic Digital Instruments (EDI) into music education in upper secondary school. This workshop is de
Background: SARS-CoV-2 remains globally circulating, yet post-pandemic comprehensive molecular, serological, and population-level immunity data from low-resource settings such as Ethiopia are limited. This study employed genomic surveillance with seroepidemiological assessment to characterize the epidemiology of SARS-CoV-2 among individuals presenting with influenza-like illness (ILI) and severe a
Importance: Early identification of the likelihood of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) using minimal information is crucial for early diagnosis and intervention, which can affect developmental outcomes. Objective: To develop and validate a machine learning (ML) model for predicting ASD using a minimal set of features from background and medical information and to evaluate the predictors and the util
