To evaluate the progression of carotid intima-media thickness (IMT) in the common carotid artery (CCA) and the bifurcation over a mean follow-up of 16 years in relation to cardiovascular risk factors.

Background: Dietary habits significantly influence the risks of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Through metabolomics, we’ve previously measured plasma metabolites to gauge dietary quality, introducing a healthy dietary metabolic signature (HDMS) linked to a decreased risk of future type 2 diabetes and coronary artery disease. Objectives: To assess the impact of a 6-day dietary interven

The boreal forest covers approximately 12 million km² and contains one-third of the terrestrial vegetation carbon, making it a vital component of the global carbon cycle. The impact of forest harvesting (e.g. clear-cuts) and forest fires on forest carbon budgets under climate change is still not well understood. This study presents results from simulations with the process-based dynamic globalvege

The entanglement of business and consumption practices have been neglected in prior consumer research. We address this issue by developing the concept lifestyled business practice. Through a study of criminal gangs in Sweden we contribute by developing three main entanglements of business practice; hedonic structures, stylized intelligence and sonic monetization

Obesity is a major risk factor for metabolic and cardiovascular disease in adults. The Framingham Heart Study was established to follow the development of cardiovascular disease (CVD) over a long period of time and to identify major risk factors for premature death. 1 The study was one of the first to show that obesity is a major risk factor for CVD in adults.

BACKGROUND: A significant proportion of people with migraine do not achieve sufficient relief of their acute migraine symptoms with the currently available medications. A previous study showed that intranasal evaporative cooling reduced headache and migraine-associated symptoms when given in an outpatient clinic setting. This study aimed to evaluate the feasibility of self-administering the same i

Introduction: Understanding violent criminality and its impact on health and eventually the risk of premature mortality is important for efficient future interventions. This study aimed to explore the effect violent criminality had on premature mortality (i.e., death before the age of 65) among individuals with substance use disorders (SUDs). Methods: The cohort was created by identifying all Swed
