OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the association between metformin use and incident osteoarthritis (OA) in people with diabetes and the impact of dosing. DESIGN: Nested case-control study within a cohort of >1.4 million individuals from Sweden. PARTICIPANTS: Participants were aged 35-80 years in 2005, without diabetes or OA. We identified persons with incident diabetes between 2006 and 2016 and excluded tho

This study systematically evaluates and meta-analyzes Mendelian randomization studies on the bidirectional causal relationship between Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and systemic diseases. We searched five databases, assessed study quality, and extracted data. Diseases were classified using ICD-11, and the meta-analysis was performed with RevMan 5.4. A total of 56 studies identified genetic links betwee

Våtmarker bidrar med många ekosystemtjänster såsom kolinlagring och förbättrad vattenkvalitet och tillgänglighet. Historisk dränering har dock lett till en massiv förlust av våtmarker världen över, vilket resulterat i förlorade ekosystemfunktioner och ökade utsläpp av växthusgaser. Idag finns ett ökat intresse för återställning av våtmarker för att nå beslutade klimat- och miljömål. Det finns dockPeatlands provide several ecosystem services such as carbon sequestration and improved water quality and availability. However, historical drainage has led to a massive loss of peatlands worldwide, resulting in lost ecosystem functions and increased greenhouse gas emissions. Today, environmental goals have led to a renewed interest in the restoration of peatlands. However, knowledge gaps regarding

Monitoring suspended sediment concentration (SSC) is essential for water-quality management and for anticipating sediment-related impacts. Yet sparse in situ measurements limit tracking SSC at high temporal and spatial resolution. We address this gap with a scalable approach that couples multispectral imagery (Landsat-8/9, Sentinel-2), remote sensing precipitation product (CHIRPS), and soil proper

Background: In most families with familial cancers, mutations have not been demonstrated; thus, healthy individuals cannot be tested for mutation status. As a consequence, many persons at risk of familial cancer live with an unknown, but presumably high, risk of developing cancer. Aim: The aim of this study was to describe individuals' perceptions of living with an increased risk of colorectal and

Background: In neonates with critical pulmonary stenosis (CPS) or pulmonary atresia with intact ventricular septum (PAIVS), a nonrestrictive atrial septal defect (ASD) has been speculated to improve the initial clinical course after pulmonary valvotomy (PV) but some concerns exist in terms of its potentially longterm adverse effect on the right ventricle`s (RV) growth and persistent desaturation d

Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is an autoimmune bleeding disorder characterized by increased peripheral immune platelet destruction and megakaryocyte defects in the bone marrow. Although ITP was originally thought to be primarily due to antibody-mediated autoimmunity, it is now clear that T cells also play a significant role in the disease. However, the exact interplay between platelet destruction,

IMPORTANCE The positron emission tomography (PET) tracer [18F]flortaucipir allows in vivo quantification of paired helical filament tau, a core neuropathological feature of Alzheimer disease (AD), but its diagnostic utility is unclear. OBJECTIVE To examine the discriminative accuracy of [18F]flortaucipir for AD vs non-AD neurodegenerative disorders. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS In this cross-

It is widely known that the apolipoprotein E (APOE) ɛ4 allele imposes a higher risk for Alzheimer's disease (AD). Recent evidence suggests that exposure to air pollution is also a risk factor for AD, and results from a few studies indicate that the effect of air pollution on cognitive function and dementia is stronger in APOEɛ4 carriers than in non-carriers. Air pollution and interaction with APOE

Lignin is one of the major constituents in lignocellulosic biomass and is the mostabundant source of renewable aromatics on terrestrial ecosystems. The workcarried out in this thesis concerns bacterial conversion of low molecular weightlignin. This thesis is divided into three major sections, with an initial emphasison screening and characterization of selected bacterial species on lignin modelcom

Background More than half of cardiovascular mortality occurs outside the hospital, mainly due to consistently low survival rates from out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. Methods This is a prospective, nested, case-control study derived from the Västerbotten Intervention Programme and the World Health Organization's Multinational Monitoring of Trends and Determinants in Cardiovascular Disease study in

Wild birds, particularly duck species, are the main reservoir of influenza A virus (IAV) in nature. However, knowledge of IAV infection dynamics in the wild bird reservoir, and the development of immune responses, are essentially absent. Importantly, a detailed understanding of how subtype diversity is generated and maintained is lacking. To address this, 18,679 samples from 7728 Mallard ducks cap

This presentation highlights results from a research study of ‘Music Week’; a one-week Swedish music project. The aim of the ‘Music Week’ project was to enable young people with physical impairments to take part in musical activities. Digitally-based musical settings were used in order to provide tools for performing and creating music. The main purpose of the present research study was to explore

Landscape genetics offers a powerful approach to understanding species’ dispersal patterns. However, a central obstacle is to account for ecological processes operating at multiple spatial scales, while keeping research outcomes applicable to conservation management. We address this challenge by applying a novel multilevel regression approach to model landscape drivers of genetic structure at both
