A prospective study of the relationships between movement and glycemic control during day and night in pregnancy

Both disturbed sleep and lack of exercise can disrupt metabolism in pregnancy. Accelerometery was used to objectively assess movement during waking (physical activity) and movement during sleeping (sleep disturbance) periods and evaluated relationships with continuous blood glucose variation during pregnancy. Data was analysed prospectively. 15-women without pre-existing diabetes mellitus wore con

PR interval prolongation and 1-year mortality among emergency department patients : A multicentre transnational cohort study

Objectives Emerging evidence supports that PR interval prolongation is associated with increased mortality. However, most previous studies have limited confounder control, and clinical impact in a population of acute ill patients is unknown. The aim of this study was to investigate whether 1-year all-cause mortality was increased in patients presenting with PR interval prolongation in the emergenc

Postoperative non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug use and oncological outcomes of rectal cancer

BACKGROUND: Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are known to suppress the inflammatory response after surgery and are often used for pain control. This study aimed to investigate NSAID use after radical surgical resection for rectal cancer and long-term oncological outcomes. METHODS: A cohort of patients who underwent anterior resection for rectal cancer between 2007 and 2013 in 15 hosp

Survival after radical cystectomy during holiday periods

Objective: For patients undergoing radical cystectomy for bladder cancer, a procedure requiring complex urinary tract reconstruction prone to major postoperative complications, the timing and quality of the surgery have been associated with outcomes. Patients and methods: This study investigated if radical cystectomy for bladder cancer performed during holiday periods had worse disease-specific (D

Symptoms and syndromes associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection and severity in pregnant women from two community cohorts

We tested whether pregnant and non-pregnant women differ in COVID-19 symptom profile and severity, and we extended previous investigations on hospitalized pregnant women to those who did not require hospitalization. Two female community-based cohorts (18–44 years) provided longitudinal (smartphone application, N = 1,170,315, n = 79 pregnant tested positive) and cross-sectional (web-based survey, N

Governance and interdependencies of critical infrastructures : Exploring mechanisms for cross-sector resilience

Much contemporary critical infrastructure research has been devoted to studies of the effects of risks stemming from interdependencies between critical infrastructures, here referred to as interdependency-related risks. However, this research has placed limited emphasis on infrastructure actors’ efforts to manage such risks in practice, and it remains unclear to what extent and how critical infras

High-resolution genotyping of HLA class I loci in children with type 1 diabetes and celiac disease

Objectives: HLA-DQ2 and DQ8 contribute to the strongest risk haplotypes for type 1 diabetes (T1D) and celiac disease (CD). The variation in genetic risk association is likely linked to different HLA class II loci susceptibility, but association studies of HLA class I alleles are scarce. The aim was to investigate HLA class I A, B, and C alleles polymorphisms in children with only T1D, CD, and a su

Arterial stiffness is associated with impaired orthostatic diastolic blood pressure reaction and increased central blood pressure: A prospective population‑based study

Background: Arterial stiffness is independently associated with orthostatic hypotension. We aimed to investigate the relationship between orthostatic blood pressure reaction and arterial stiffness as well as central hemodynamics in younger subjects from the general population.Methods: We analyzed a large prospective cohort study of 3756 individuals from the general population (mean age 41.9±14.5 y

Native language experience shapes pre-attentive foreign tone processing and guides rapid memory trace build-up : An ERP study

Language experience, particularly from our native language (L1), shapes our perception of other languages around us. The present study examined how L1 experience moulds the initial processing of foreign (L2) tone during acquisition. In particular, we investigated whether learners were able to rapidly forge new neural memory traces for novel tonal words, which was tracked by recording learners’ ERP

A Study Protocol for Validation and Implementation of Whole-Genome and -Transcriptome Sequencing as a Comprehensive Precision Diagnostic Test in Acute Leukemias

Background: Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) and whole-transcriptome sequencing (WTS), with the ability to provide comprehensive genomic information, have become the focal point of research interest as novel techniques that can support precision diagnostics in routine clinical care of patients with various cancer types, including hematological malignancies. This national multi-center study, led by Ge

The effect of patient and prosthesis factors on revision rates after total knee replacement using a multi-registry meta-analytic approach

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Characteristics of patients receiving total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and prostheses used vary between regions and change with time. How these practice variations influence revision remains unclear. We combined registry data for better understanding of the impact of variation, which could potentially improve revision rates. PATIENTS AND METHODS: We used data from 2003 to 2019

Differences in genetic risk score profiles for drug use disorder, major depression, and ADHD as a function of sex, age at onset, recurrence, mode of ascertainment, and treatment

Do genetic risk profiles for drug use disorder (DUD), major depression (MD), and attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) differ substantially as a function of sex, age at onset (AAO), recurrence, mode of ascertainment, and treatment? Methods Family genetic risk scores (FGRS) for MD, anxiety disorders, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, alcohol use disorder, DUD, ADHD, and autism-spectrum dis

Risk-tailored starting age of breast cancer screening based on women's reproductive profile : A nationwide cohort study

Background: Although reproductive history is recognised to affect the risk of breast cancer, current breast cancer screening guidelines do not consider risk differences by this important factor. As there is a need for an earlier screening in women at increased risk of breast cancer, we provided evidence-based risk-adapted starting age of screening based on different reproductive profiles. Material

Characterisation and monitoring of in-situ remediation of chlorinated hydrocarbon contamination using an interdisciplinary approach (MIRACHL)

To meet future challenges in urban development with denser housing and sustainable water resources, society needs to take actions. Densification of housing is met by expanding housing into old industrial areas often contaminated and water resources are already affected in some areas by over exploiting, pollutants spreading and a changing climate leading to changes in recharge.Growing concerns are

Oral insulin therapy for primary prevention of type 1 diabetes in infants with high genetic risk : The GPPAD-POInT (global platform for the prevention of autoimmune diabetes primary oral insulin trial) study protocol

Introduction The POInT study, an investigator initiated, randomised, placebo-controlled, double-blind, multicentre primary prevention trial is conducted to determine whether daily administration of oral insulin, from age 4.0 months to 7.0 months until age 36.0 months to children with elevated genetic risk for type 1 diabetes, reduces the incidence of beta-cell autoantibodies and diabetes. Methods

Bleeding complications and mortality in warfarin-treated VTE patients, dependence of INR variability and iTTR

High quality of warfarin treatment is important to prevent recurrence of venous thromboembolism (VTE) without bleeding complications. The aim of this study was to examine the effect of individual time in therapeutic range (iTTR) and International Normalised Ratio (INR) variability on bleeding risk and mortality in a large cohort of wellmanaged patients with warfarin due to VTE. A cohort of 16612 p
