BackgroundResearch is limited about how the introduction of new ways of delivering and conducting occupational therapy, in accordance with expected changes in health care, is experienced by occupational therapists (OTs).AimTo explore how OTs experienced use of a new internet-based intervention, ‘Strategies for Empowering activities in Everyday life’ (SEE), focusing on supporting client resources t
Study Design: Prospective register cohort study. Objectives: The indication for surgery in patients with lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS) is considered to be leg pain and neurogenic claudication (NC). Nevertheless, a significant part of patients operated for LSS have mild leg pain levels defined as leg pain ≤minimally important clinical difference (MICD). Information is lacking on how to inform these
Women with breast cancer and micrometastases only constitute a treatment dilemma. If only a micrometastasis is found in a sentinel lymph node, an axillary lymph node dissection may be considered to be overtreatment and perhaps could be avoided. However, studies have shown decreased survival in patients with micrometastases only. This paper focuses on the pathological work-up behind the classificat
Previous studies have demonstrated that in admixed populations, West African ancestry is associated with an increased prevalence of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). In the current study, the effect of Amerindian ancestry in SLE was examined in an admixed population in Argentina. The Argentine population is predominantly European with approximately 20% Amerindian admixture, and a very small (<2%
This population-based register study examined if factors during the fetal and neonatal period influence the risk for the child to develop bronchial asthma (asthma). From the Swedish Hospital Discharge Register we identified children, born between 1987 and 1999, who had been hospitalized for asthma up to 2001. Thus, the outcome measure contains only hospitalized cases, not all children with asthma.
Objectives: To investigate whether pancreatic steatosis is associated with the presence of pancreatic cysts among individuals with diabetes. Material and Methods: 158 individuals [mean age 66 ± 10 years, 81 (51%) female] with diabetes [135 (85%) had type 2 diabetes] participated in the study involving Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), blood tests and anthropometric measurements. Pancreatic steatos
Following the line of the former Iron Curtain, the European Green Belt links protected areas across 24 countries, and restores key wildlife populations, wetlands and rural livelihoods. Its success proves that rewilding-grounded nature-based solutions can transform war-scarred frontiers into biodiversity-rich, climate-resilient lifelines, and challenges policymakers to replicate such mega-corridors
BACKGROUND: Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) share many pathophysiological factors including genetics, but whether epigenetic marks are shared is unknown. We aimed to test whether a DNA methylation risk score (MRS) for T2DM was associated with GDM across ancestry and GDM criteria.METHODS: In two independent pregnancy cohorts, EPIPREG (n = 480) and EPIDG (n =
Background: Musculoskeletal pain and its risk factors are rarely assessed in studies on adolescent athletes. The aim was to identify risk factors at baseline that were associated with the persistence or development of musculoskeletal pain at a two-year follow-up in adolescent sport school students, and to study cross-sectional associations at follow-up between musculoskeletal pain and sports perfo

Constructing simulation models can be a complex and time-consuming task, in particular if the models are constructed from scratch or if a general-purpose simulation modeling tool is used. In this paper, we propose a model construction framework, which aims to simplify the process of constructing discrete event simulation models for emergency medical service (EMS) policy analysis. The main building
Whilst the global transport sector undergoes its seventh revolution, driven by electrification, decarbonization and advancements in mobility services, Kenya stands at a pivotal moment in its transition toward sustainable urban development, facing challenges such as unreliable electricity, high costs, and limited infrastructure. With transport responsible for nearly a quarter of global emissions, s
BACKGROUND: To elucidate the mechanism by which local delivery of 3-morpholino-sydnonimine (SIN-1) affects intimal hyperplasia after percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA). METHODS: Porcine coronary arteries were treated with PTCA and immediately afterwards locally treated for 5 minutes, with a selective cytosolic guanylate cyclase inhibitor, 1 H-(1,2,4)oxadiazole(4,3-alpha)quinox
Five to 15% of patients with primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) develop cholangiocarcinoma (CC) with a median survival of 5 to 7 months, an outcome not significantly improved by liver transplantation. However, if CC is found incidentally during the procedure or in the explanted liver, 5-year survival rates of 35% are reported. A noninvasive method to detect CC small enough to allow for intended
