Background: Transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) is ‘Gold Standard’ treatment for moderate-to-severe lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) due to benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH) with bladder-outlet obstruction (BOO). However, TURP is associated with a risk of complications, so minimally invasive methods have been developed. Prostate artery embolization (PAE) is a new minimally invasive p

Efficient and timely maintenance is essential for the robust operation of infrastructure across all types of transport. In the railway sector, track maintenance presents unique challenges. Specifically, some maintenance tasks require track closures, which can disrupt train schedules. Coordinating these closures with regular train operations makes the scheduling process complicated. To ensure suffi

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: In patients around retirement age controversy exists as to whether to treat displaced femoral neck fracture (dFNF) with internal fixation (IF) or arthroplasty. An arthroplasty in this age group may need revision due to a long expected remaining lifetime. IF carries a higher risk of early failure but a maintained native hip if healing occurs. We aimed to determine the cumula

Whereas autonomic dysfunction and the metabolic syndrome are clinically associated, the relationships with the plasma metabolome is unknown. We explored the association between orthostatic blood pressure responses and 818 plasma metabolites in middle-aged subjects from the general population. We included 3803 out of 6251 subjects (mean age, 57 years; 52% women) from the Malmö sub-cohort of The Swe

Background: Evidence based medicine (EBM) should be an endeavor within all healthcare professions. Knowledge and understanding of science are important prerequisites of EBM. Objective: The aim was to examine and compare perspectives on science and perceived inhibiting and facilitating factors for the assimilation and implementation of scientific information among clinically working specialist- and

Opera Nova tar sin utgångspunkt i de rollfunktioner vi som individer väljer i olika grupper och situationer. Hur fria är vi i våra val? Tillsammans med publiken undersöker vi bilder av makt och genus på operascenen och i verkligheten. Vi undersöker härskartekniker och pratar om hur man kan bryta upp oönskade maktmönster. Vi arbetar med improvisation och leker fram operascener i olika klassiska musThe ensemble Operaimprovisatörerna investigated ways of deconstructing images of gender and power in opera and opera improvisation performance, by changing roles and using different readings, such as realism, parody and movement. I initiated the project inspired by a theoretical vantage point of post-structuralfeminism (Wilén, 2017, p. 17). The project focused on "interchange of traditional roles

Background and purpose Hip fractures should be treated based on the best available evidence and cost-effectively to optimize the outcome for this large group of frail patients. This study examined nationwide variation in surgical methods used for hip fractures. Methods In this cohort study 46,243 patients ≥65 years with a trochanteric hip fracture (THF) or a femoral neck fracture (FNF) registered

Many science students struggle with using scientific language and making sense of scientific phenomena. Thus, there is an increased interest in science education research and public policy with regard to understanding and promoting scientific language use and sensemaking in science classrooms. However, there is a lack of comparative studies on how upper-secondary school students of different achie
