Background: Parkinson's disease and atypical parkinsonism are characterized by motor and non-motor symptoms. As the disease advances, planning for end-of-life (EoL) care becomes increasingly important. However, consensus-based European guidelines for advance care planning and documentation of EoL care preferences for parkinsonism are lacking. Understanding current documentation practices for EoL c

Conventional capacity expansion planning (CEP) relies on a perfect-foresight planning horizon and linear investment optimisation, which fail to capture the non-linear dynamics of electricity markets. In the Nordics, hydro-related weather variability plays a critical role in maintaining the robustness of the power system. This paper addresses the intra-year perfect-foresight limitation in current C

AIMS: A history of preeclampsia is associated with at least a twofold increased risk of coronary artery disease (CAD), with unclear underlying mechanisms. This study aimed to investigate coronary plaque characteristics in women with a history of preeclampsia compared to women from the general population.METHODS: In this cross-sectional study, women with a history of preeclampsia from the Cardiovas

The aim of this dissertation is to map out and illustrate particularly troublesome and central areas in grammar learning. The point of departure is Josefsson and Lundin’s three suggested threshold concepts within grammar: to be able to distinguish between meaning, form and function, to be able to distinguish between a linear and a hierarchical dimension and to be able to identify and segment claus

Background: Bile leakage is a severe complication after cholecystectomy and is associated with an increased risk of morbidity and mortality. The aim of this study was to evaluate the incidence of bile leakage post-cholecystectomy and to identify potential risk factors and their association with changes in the incidence of bile leakage over time. Methods: Demographic and perioperative data of all p

Background: The use of high-flow oxygen therapy (HFOT) compared with standard low-flow oxygen therapy (LFOT) may improve outcomes in people with oxygen-dependent chronic respiratory failure (CRF). The primary aim of this multicentre trial was to evaluate HFOT in addition to LFOT, compared with regular LFOT in people with CRF due to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or interstitial lung

INTRODUCTION: People with longstanding hip and groin pain (LHGP) are often referred to orthopaedic care. Physical therapist-led interventions are recommended in consensus statements as the first line of treatment, but it is unknown if structured interventions are more effective than usual care. The aim of this trial is to evaluate the effectiveness of a structured physical therapist-led treatment

Context: Life satisfaction (LS) is associated with health and longevity but decreases after spinal cord injury (SCI). Yet, little is known about changes in LS over time, many years after SCI. Objectives: To assess changes in LS over six years among older adults aging with long-term SCI, determine how changes in LS are associated with sex, age, injury characteristics, and with changes in secondary

Objectives (1) To assess the risk of haematological malignancies in individuals with systemic sclerosis (SSc) compared with individuals without SSc; (2) to explore how the risk varies across groups stratified by sex and age; and (3) to determine when these malignancies present in relation to SSc diagnosis in a population-based setting. Methods We performed a nationwide cohort study using high-qual

Anthropogenic land-use and climate change pose novel selection pressures on bees, yet their evolutionary responses in terms of morphological or physiological adaptations remain unclear. While adaptive responses are expected, these may be constrained by gene flow when changes in selection pressures are spatially heterogeneous. The buff-tailed bumblebee (Bombus terrestris) is a widespread species th

AIM: This retrospective observational cohort study aimed to investigate the prevalence of suspected lateral lymph node metastases (LLNM), as diagnosed by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and its impact on local recurrence (LR) and overall survival (OS). Patients who underwent dissection of suspected lymph nodes were evaluated in subgroup analysis.METHOD: Patients diagnosed with rectal cancer in S
