Background: Access to improved water and sanitation infrastructures are key determinants of health. The sub-Saharan African region in particular is lagging behind the ambitious goal of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development to ensure universal access to improved and reliable water and sanitation for all (Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 6). Large mining projects can promote economic growth
BACKGROUND: De novo oligometastatic prostate cancer (omPCa) on prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) positron emission tomography (PET) is a new disease entity and its optimal management remains unknown. OBJECTIVE: To analyze the outcomes of patients treated with cytoreductive radical prostatectomy (cRP) for omPCa on PSMA-PET. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS: Overall, 116 patients treated wi
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are membrane enclosed biological nanoparticles released by cells. In the past two decades, EVs have gained a lot of attention due to their role in numerous biological processes. However, their small nature complicates isolating them from biological fluids with cumbersome techniques, such as ultracentrifugation. Acoustic trapping is a technique that uses ultrasonic stan
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: The existence of social problems, crime, and a diminishing sense of community are acknowledged challenges to residents of deprived neighborhoods. In research on deprived neighborhoods in Sweden, the perspectives of young residents and adults of working age dominate. This study explores how older adults in deprived neighborhoods in Sweden experience crime and disorder, an
Objectives: We explored the prevalence of health complaints subjectively associated with static magnetic field (SMF) and acoustic noise exposure among MR radiographers in Sweden, using CT radiographers as a control group. Additionally, we explored radiographers’ use of strategies to mitigate adverse health effects. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was sent to all hospitals with MR units in Sweden
The article presents the main results of a joint investigation by Swedish researchers and industry representatives carried out during 2006-2007 concerning the benefits of modern object based information and communication technology, ICT, for industrialisation of the building industry. The background for the investigation was an experience by both parties of a lack of coherence between scientific r
Carotid endarterectomy (CEA) is a standardized surgical procedure and is the third most common vascular surgical procedure in Sweden. To improve the quality of pre- and postoperative care for patients undergoing elective CEA, a standardized care plan (SCP) was developed and implemented during Spring of 2007 at a vascular clinic in Sweden. In order to spread light on obstacles and possibilities in
Purpose: Getting an incurable oesophageal or gastric cancer diagnosis is a major stressful life event associated with severe physical, psychosocial and existential challenges. To provide timely and efficient support, based on patients' experiences, the aim of the study was to explore how patients newly diagnosed with incurable oesophageal and gastric cancer manage everyday life. Method: Semi-struc
Purpose: Tau pathology is associated with concurrent atrophy and decreased cerebral blood flow (CBF) in Alzheimer’s disease (AD), but less is known about their temporal relationships. Our aim was therefore to investigate the association of concurrent and longitudinal tau PET with longitudinal changes in atrophy and relative CBF. Methods: We included 61 individuals from the Amsterdam Dementia Cohor
Two new membrane concepts have been piloted have been piloted in in recent years at Lund University in Sweden – namely (1) direct membrane filtration (DMF) and (2) water harvesting. Both concepts use submerged membranes as the established membrane bioreactor (MBR) concept but they exclude a biological treatment. This presentation will showcase the latest developments and experiences with these two
Submerged membrane modules either in flat or hollow fibre configuration have established themselves as a standard module for membrane bioreactors (MBRs) in municipal and industrial wastewater treatment. In recent years two new concepts using submerged membrane modules have been developed for (1) direct membrane filtration (DMF) for municipal wastewater treatment and for (2) storm and rain harvesti
Introduction: The impact of exposure to endemic infections on basal immunity and susceptibility to HIV-1 acquisition remains uncertain. We hypothesized that exposure to infections such as cytomegalovirus (CMV), malaria and sexually transmitted infections (STIs) in high-risk individuals may modulate immunity and subsequently increase susceptibility to HIV-1 acquisition. Methods: A case-control stud
Scheduling between mates in species with long-term pair bonds can be essential for positive fitness. The annual cycle in photoperiod is the primary environmental cue used by many animals to synchronize behavior and physiology among members of a population, and animals that migrate must have similar annual schedules to ensure successful breeding. However, we know little about whether members of mat

Introduction: Chemoradiotherapy is standard treatment for limited-stage SCLC. However, most patients relapse and there is a need for better treatment. We investigated whether twice-daily thoracic radiotherapy (TRT) of 60 Gy/40 fractions improves survival compared with the established schedule of 45 Gy/30 fractions. Here, we report final survival data and long-term toxicity. Methods: Randomized, op
