Identifying the genetic variants that regulate fasting glucose concentrations may further our understanding of the pathogenesis of diabetes. We therefore investigated the association of fasting glucose levels with SNPs in 2 genome-wide scans including a total of 5,088 nondiabetic individuals from Finland and Sardinia. We found a significant association between the SNP rs563694 and fasting glucose
Context. The Milky Way nuclear star cluster (MWNSC) is located in the Galactic centre, together with the Milky Way nuclear stellar disc (MWNSD), and they dominate the gravitational potential within the inner 300 pc. However, the formation and evolution of the two systems and their possible connections are still under debate. Aims. We reanalysed the low-resolution KMOS spectra in the MWNSC with the
Aims/hypothesis Genetic and epidemiological studies suggest an association between gestational diabetes mellitus and type 2 diabetes. Both are polygenic multifactorial disorders characterised by beta cell dysfunction and insulin resistance. Our aim was to investigate whether common genetic variants that have previously been associated with type 2 diabetes or related phenotypes would also confer ri
Råttan är en däggdjursart med en kort dräktighetstiden och föds därför mycket omogen. Den är vid födelsen naken, blind och döv och är helt beroende av sin moder för många funktioner, såsom näringstillförsel, termoreglering, urinering och tarmtömning. Under diperioden är råttans mag-tarmsystem och matsmältning helt anpassad till modersmjölkdieten. Bland annat är tarmens barriärfunktion omogen, vilk
In very recent years, growing efforts have been devoted to the development of all-polymer solar cells (all-PSCs). One of the advantages of all-PSCs over the fullerene-based PSCs is the versatile design of both donor and acceptor polymers which allows the optimization of energy levels to maximize the open-circuit voltage (Voc). However, there is no successful example of all-PSCs with both high Voc
Purpose: Various food patterns have been associated with weight change in adults, but it is unknown which combinations of nutrients may account for such observations. We investigated associations between main nutrient patterns and prospective weight change in adults. Methods: This study includes 235,880 participants, 25–70 years old, recruited between 1992 and 2000 in 10 European countries. Intake

2593Background: PD-1 blockade has demonstrated positive anti-tumor activity across multiple tumor types. While the anti-tumoral response can be substantial and even curative, response rates remain low in many cancer types. Long-lasting responses are only observed in a minority of patients, and additional immunotherapeutic alternatives remain limited for patients who fail to respond or initially re
Background and AimsOlder persons with problematic alcohol use vary in psychosocial functioning, age of onset for problem drinking and use of other drugs. The study measured the differential risks of all-cause, alcohol, polydrug and psychiatric-related repeated hospitalizations among older persons with problematic alcohol use.DesignA linked register-based cohort study with discontinuous multiple-fa

Medieval Europe was characterized by geopolitical disorder and territorial disunion. Around 1500 AD, as the modern era dawned, Europe comprised some 1,500 districts which were largely politically independent. Gradually, medium sized territories emerged around cores made up of cultural, economic, and political centres. The Lake Malar area in Sweden was such a territory; London, Paris, Berlin-Potsda
