AbstraktSyftet med den här berättelsen handlar om Abskopal regression av subkutant implanterat N29 råttgliom som inträffar efter immunisering med syngena IFN-utsöndrande celler och behandling av kontralaterala tumörer med pulserande elektriska fält (PEF) och/eller strålbehandling (RT). Studien utfördes på råttor av Fischer-344-stammen med råttgliom N29-tumörer implanterade subkutant på flanken el
Surgical site infections (SSI) are a clinical and economic burden. Suture-associated SSI may develop when bacteria colonize the suture surface and form biofilms that are resistant to antibiotics. Thrombin-derived C-terminal peptide (TCP)-25 is a host defense peptide with a unique dual mode of action that can target both bacteria and the excessive inflammation induced by bacterial products. The pep
BACKGROUND: Behavioural therapy for tics is difficult to access, and little is known about its effectiveness when delivered online.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the clinical and cost-effectiveness of an online-delivered, therapist- and parent-supported therapy for young people with tic disorders.DESIGN: Single-blind, parallel-group, randomised controlled trial, with 3-month (primary end point) and 6-m
There is currently a lack of studies exploring how transport investments and school admission policies in a city can affect the distribution of accessibility to schools. The aim of this study is to investigate if, for whom, and the ways in which, accessibility to schools can change following (1) a change to the city’s public school admission policy and (2) investments in public transport infrastru
Lactic acid is a platform chemical that can be used for many applications. More recently, optically pure lactic acid—L- or D-lactic acid enantiomers—have been used for the polymerisation to poly-lactic acid (PLA). The possibility of tailoring the properties of this bioplastic by adjusting the ratio of each enantiomer might help to accelerate the substitution of petroleum-based plastics with bio-ba
BACKGROUND: Breast milk provides infants with complete nutrition for immune development and protection against childhood diseases and associated mortality. Early initiation of breastfeeding (EIBF) aids in providing colostrum to newborns, providing protection against infection, and improving newborn and infant survival. Although Simiyu reported the lowest prevalence of EIBF in Tanzania, no study ha
Continues to fill gaps between the descriptive, conceptual, and transformative sustainability science.Sustainability is increasingly important across functional sectors and scientific disciplines. Policy-makers, practitioners, and academics continue to wrestle with the complexity of risk, resilience, and sustainability, but because of the necessary transdisciplinary focus, it is difficult to find
In order to include all outlooks and perspectives on the world prevalent in contemporary society, countries like Sweden have replaced traditional religious education with worldview education. However, current worldview theory fails to make justice to two important facts concerning the contemporary religious landscape. Firstly, a great many people are semi-secular rather than traditional believers
Photoredox catalysis is a rapidly expanding field, in which organic transformations are catalysed using light. The most commonly used photoredox catalysts (PCs) are transition metal complexes which absorb in the visible region of the electromagnetic spectrum. Traditionally, such PCs are based on scarce and expensive metals, such as ruthenium or iridium, in combination with polypyridyl ligands. Res
Frontotemporal dementia is the second most common form of early onset dementia (<65 years). Despite this, there are few known disease-modifying factors. The anterior cingulate is a focal point of pathology in behavioural variant frontotemporal dementia. Sulcation of the anterior cingulate is denoted by the presence of a paracingulate sulcus, a tertiary sulcus developing, where present during the t
Prenatal insults or adverse events during the in-utero period may lead to suboptimal function of adult organs because of the impairment of critical organ development and growth, as linked to lower birth weight. This may ultimately predispose the individual to the later onset of some diseases in adulthood, a process known as Developmental Origins of Health and Disease (DOHaD). There is ample eviden
Abstract in PortugueseA adoção, apropriação e uso da linguagem dos direitos humanos em discursos ativistas surgiram na década de 1970, em um momento em que ativistas aumentaram a conscientização global sobre a violência e a repressão durante as ditaduras militares no Brasil, Chile e Argentina (Eckel e Moyn, 2014). A violência dessas ditaduras foi um fator crítico no desenvolvimento do ativismo tra
Sedan oktober 2022 styrs Italien av en regering med Giorgia Meloni som premiärminister. Hon är ledare för partiet Fratelli d’Italia och har en bakgrund i två partier med fascistiska rötter: det neofascistiska Movimento Sociale (MSI) och det postfascistiska Alleanza Nationale (AN). Intresset för den italienska fascismen och dess arvtagare har därmed fått ny näring.
The global burden of neurological disorders is substantial and increasing, especially in low-resource settings. The current increased global interest in brain health and its impact on population wellbeing and economic growth, highlighted in the World Health Organization’s new Intersectoral Global Action Plan on Epilepsy and other Neurological Disorders 2022–2031, presents an opportunity to rethink
När Sverige 1950 beslutade att gå med i Bretton Woods-institutionerna (Internationella valutafonden och Världsbanken) uteblev den offentliga debatten fullständigt. När vi nu står inför ännu ett historiskt vägval – EMU – kan vi likväl lära oss något av historien.
