Background/Objectives: Worldwide, men experience a higher incidence of pancreatic cancer (PC) than women. Methods: To increase understanding of the underlying reasons for this sex-related difference, we analysed general and sex-related risk factors for PC in the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC) cohort (women/men No. = 293,682/136,728; 717/577 PC-cases).

Online teaching for place-based experiential learning is a rather new practice that can be used to create a more engaging and comprehensive learning experience. Though, it is a challenge to deliver experiential learning and place-based education in online teaching. This paper reports how we tackled this challenge in the pedagogical development of an interdisciplinary course within the European Uni

Studying the composition of exoplanets is one of the most promising approaches to observationally constrain planet formation and evolution processes. However, this endeavour is complicated for small exoplanets by the fact that a wide range of compositions are compatible with their observed bulk properties. To overcome this issue, we identify triangular regions in the mass-radius space where part o

Mental health problems among young adults often lead to obstacles to completing higher education and becoming established in the labour market. It is important to offer support that can help these individuals realize educational and vocational goals in order to become self-sufficient and achieve social inclusion. Individual Placement and Support (IPS) and Supported Education (SEd) are two methods

Background: Radiostereometric analysis (RSA) provides highly accurate data about the migration of a total knee arthroplasty (TKA) component. However, patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) reflect the patients' perspective of their functional status, pain, and overall health after TKA. The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between tibial implant migration and change in postopera

Objective: The objective of this study was to assess the association between hip muscle strength and hip-related patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) in patients with longstanding hip and groin pain (LHGP). Design: Cross-sectional design. Setting: Orthopedic care. Participants: Eighty-one patients with LHGP were consecutively recruited. Main outcome measures: Hip muscle strength was measured

Introduction: Phytates are nutrient-binding compounds found mainly in cereals and legumes, which may significantly contribute to micronutrient malnutrition in regions where phytate-rich cereals, such as maize, are staple food.Objectives: This study investigated how maize fermentation, both alone and in combination with soaking and germination, can reduce phytate levels and enhance the estimated bi

Polymorphisms in genes in the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class II region comprise the most important inherited risk factors for many autoimmune diseases including type 1 diabetes (T1D) and celiac disease (CD): both diseases are positively associated with the HLA- DR3 haplotype (DRB1*03:01-DQA1*05:01-DQB1*02:01). Studies of two different populations have recently documented that T1D susceptibili

This study examines the impact of the extensive climatic and environmental changes associated with the Early Holocene on the feeding ecology of aurochs, European bison, red deer, and Eurasian elk in southern Scandinavia from radiocarbon dates and analysis of stable carbon and nitrogen isotopes. Molecular sex information is utilised in the study of aurochs to understand the underlying reasons behin

ABSTRACTBackground and Objective: Working from a harm reduction (HR) approach underscores that addictioncare professionals (ACPs) serve people with substance use disorder in a non-judgmental environment,encouraging people to seek intervention without abstinence as the ultimate goal. This study aims toexplore and compare the attitudes toward the acceptability of harm reduction among ACPs in SouthAf

As artificial intelligence (AI) reshapes organizational structures and forces leaders to reevaluate their professional identity, executive coaching has emerged as a key developmental resource. Despite this relationship, the coach’s perspective on how their practice evolves in AI contexts remains largely underexplored. This study examined how executive coaches experience and navigate AI-related lea

Folding is an essential step in the manufacturing of paperboard packaging materials.In order to get nice folds with no cracks the paperboard lamina is creased in predetermined patterns. The act of creasing introduces delamination, which locally weakens the material. The creasing operation thus changes the local material characteristics of the paperboard, characteristics which parameters are hard t

Popular Abstract in English Wild fruits trees species are widely distributed throughout the African countries. Many of these trees species produce fruits, which are used by the local communities to greater or less degrees. The importance of wild fruits in the diet depends to a large extent on the availability of the fruits, since cultivated fruit trees are not particularly common in the dry regionAbstract Wild fruit trees have significant cultural and socio-economic value in rural areas of Mozambique. Most of the wild fruits are seasonal and are available mainly in the wet season. Generally they have a short shelf-life and are eaten fresh or after minimal processing; the most common method of preservation is sun-drying. The fruits of Adansonia digitata, Landolphia kirkii, Salacia kraussii,

This article provides 12-month prevalence rates of youth exposure to websites which encourage self-harm or suicide and examines whether such exposure is related to thoughts of self-harm and thoughts of suicide in the past 30 days. Data were collected via telephone from a nationally representative survey of 1560 Internet-using youth, ages 10-17 residing in the United States. One percent (95% CI: 0.

AIMS/HYPOTHESIS: The randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) in Diabetic Patients with Chronic Foot Ulcers (HODFU) study showed beneficial effect of HBOT. As this treatment is expensive and time-consuming, being able to select patients for therapy would be very useful. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether circulatory variables could help in predicting

Background: It is known that, in vitro, human skin bacteria are able to split disperse azo dyes into the corresponding aromatic amines, some of which are sensitizers in the local lymph node assay. We hypothesize that the molecules of disperse dyes migrate onto the skin while garments are worn, and are metabolized and degraded by commensal skin bacteria. These molecules penetrate the skin and induc
