Human-bacterial interactions play a crucial role in several essential aspects of life. Here, we describe how a secreted protein from the skin commensal Cutibacterium acnes, RoxP, functions as a sacrificial redox effector molecule that facilitates beneficial interactions with its human host by counteracting oxidative stress and reducing stress-induced inflammation. Using a combination of structural
PurposeDespite advances in medical care, bacterial meningitis still poses a considerable health issue from a global perspective. An ageing population and increasing development and use of vaccines are likely to affect the incidence and aetiology. The aim of this study was to describe the incidence and aetiology of community-acquired bacterial meningitis (CABM) in our setting, as well as the seroty
Aims: Privileged access interviewing (PAI) has traditionally been used to reach illicit drug users and other ‘hidden’ populations. How PAI data compare to other self-reported data have seldom been discussed. We compare data from patients in opioid substitution treatment (OST), gathered through PAI and researcher interviews, respectively, to investigate whether PAIs and researchers are reaching com
Importance: The ability to predict sudden cardiac death (SCD) in children and adolescents with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is currently inadequate. Late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) by cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging is associated with SCD events in adults with HCM. Objective: To examine the prognostic significance of LGE in patients with HCM who are younger than 21 years. De
Helsingborg has a strong trading heritage and a unique strategic location within the Nordic region. It's no coincidence that these factors have combined in the digital age to position Helsingborg as a key player in the world of e-commerce.The city's natural geographic advantages, alongside significant investments in infrastructure, have established a strong foundation for Helsingborg to become a l
The first time I visited, what is sometimes called the last Hawaiian fishing village, Miloli´i, South Kona, on the west coast of the island of Hawaii (The Big Island) in 1998, a villager took me out for fishing. We had a pretty decent catch of tuna that morning, she told me. Back to the house my newly found friends were soon preparing for a wonderful lunch with fresh tuna. Or, so I thought. To my
A 10 GHz beam forming transmitter was designed in a 90 nm and a 130 nm CMOS process. Two power amplifers with independently controllable phase enable the beam forming. The controllable phase is accomplished by switching in binary weighted transistors fed by quadrature signals, which are generated by a quadrature voltage controlled oscillator followed by a buffer. The designs contain seven differen
A power-series expansion method for approximate analysis of the guided modes in a cylindrical, radially inhomogeneous dielectric waveguide is presented. The method is developed for a piece-wise polynominal permittivity profile. The solution of the scalar wave equation is constructed by a sequence of power-series expantions. Convergence is ensured and accuracy maintained by regulating the distance
Objective: There is a need to identify different rehabilitation needs over time among individuals with stroke in order to implement client-centred rehabilitation interventions after stroke. The objective of this research was to describe changes in some aspects of functioning and to explore the patterns of change in functioning in everyday life during the first year after stroke for elderly patient
