Introduction: Allergen exposure worsens viral-triggered asthma exacerbations and could predispose the host to secondary bacterial infections. We have previously demonstrated that exposure to house dust mite (HDM) reduced TLR-3-induced IFN-β in human bronchial epithelial cells (HBECs) from healthy donors. We hypothesize that HDM sensitization in different ways may be involved in both viral and bact

Aim: To qualitatively assess an intervention for ambulance nurses, including simulation training concerning intimate partner violence (IPV), and to describe the ambulance nurses’ experiences of their work after the intervention. Background: IPV is a common public health issue with serious consequences from individual and societal perspectives. Previous research indicates that deficits in knowledge

Background: Identifying factors associated with vaccine uptake among health care workers (HCWs) remains crucial to generating evidence aimed at guiding national COVID-19 vaccination and future infectious disease outbreak strategies. This study aimed to elucidate these factors, focusing on the interplay between socio-demographic, health, knowledge, beliefs and attitudinal indicators. Methods: This

BackgroundTranscatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is a percutaneous catheter-based treatment of aortic stenosis as an alternative to open heart valve surgery. In cases of TAVI endocarditis, the treatment possibilities may be limited as surgical removal of the infected valve may be associated with a high risk in elderly, comorbid or frail patients. The propensity of bacteria to form a biofil

Allt eftersom behandlingar för neurodegenerativa sjukdomar utvecklas, har tidig identifiering av kognitiv försämring blivit allt viktigare för att kunna påbörja en snabb intervention och bedöma behandlingens effektivitet. Denna avhandling undersöker olika aspekter av kognitiv testning relaterad till neurokognitiva störningar.Introduction: It is important to understand how to interpret and utilize cognitiveassessment results for diagnosis, treatment, and inclusion in clinical studies. Astreatments for neurodegenerative diseases advance, the need to identify cognitivedecline in its earliest stages is becoming increasingly important, both for the timelyinitiation of treatment and for assessing the efficacy of interventio

Background: Modern drug-eluting stents have seen significant improvements, yet still create a rigid cage within the coronary artery. There is a 2% to 4% annual incidence of target lesion failure (TLF) beyond 1 year, and half of the patients experience angina after 5 years. The DynamX bioadaptor is a sirolimus-eluting, thin (71 µm) cobalt-chromium platform with helical strands that unlock and separ

Resulting from the general availability of first-row transition metals, compared to their second- and third-row counterparts, photosensitizers (PSs) based on metals like iron have gained interest as candidates to enable photochemistry from solar energy, a largely underutilized energy source. Iron complexes equivalent to other metal complexes, currently being used as PS, do lack some of the advanta

Passive inter-modulation (PIM) shows up when two or more RF signals are mixed together via the nonlinear passive devices. With the rapid development and expansion of the wireless com-munication networks, PIM is recognized as one of the most critical issues. Especially in the base station, where several networks systems have to share the same infrastruc-ture, a few transmitted signals are physicall

The construction and demolition sector stands for a large amount of the waste produced every year, roughly one third of all waste produced every year in Sweden, comes from this sector. The construction material manu- facturer Ecophon is a world leading company in manufacturing of acoustic products made out of glass wool, which are used in all kind of buildings and the general geometry of an acoust

Background: CD40 agonists have the potential to enhance the efficacy of standard of care chemotherapy and to trigger antitumor immunity. Preclinical models indicate that the success of this approach depends on appropriate sequencing of chemotherapy with a CD40 agonist. Preliminary efficacy results from the OPTIMIZE-1 Phase II study (NCT04888312) combining mitazalimab (anti-CD40) with mFFX chemothe

South Korea is well known for its development miracle: the nation has managed to develop from the state of extreme poverty to the World´s 12th largest economies in a period of five decades. However, the negative consequences and side effects of this rapid growth, and issues of the contemporary Korean society has been less discussed, especially from the perspective of the Korean youth. The millenni

Syftet med uppsatsen är att genom en rättsdogmatisk metod och ett kritiskt perspektiv granska huruvida innehållet i termen barnets bästa förhåller sig till brottsofferbegreppet i svensk rätt. Uppsatsen behandlar frågan om en inkorporering av barnkonventionen är motiverad med hänsyn till barnets rätt att komma till tals i situationer där barn bevittnar våld mot närstående. Frågan om barn som bevittThe purpose of the essay is through a legal dogmatic method and a critically perspective examine whether the content of the term child’s best interests relate to the victim of crime concept in Swedish applicable law. The essay handle the question whether an incorporation of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child is motivated given the child’s right to be heard in situations when the child wi
