To obtain geologically meaningful and precise results on low-level sulfides that are highly radiogenic, blank corrections that account for the extreme difference in the Os isotope composition of sample and blank are necessary, and the resulting data is best plotted in 187 Re- 187Os space, much like the approach used for molybdenites. We here introduce the acronym LLHR as a means of characterizing

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death in Europe, with myocardial infarction (MI) being one of its most severe manifestations. While many risk factors for CVD are well known, occupational exposures remain relatively understudied—especially in analyses that adjust for co-occurring workplace exposures. This study aimed to examine the association between occupational exposure to c

Air pollution is increasingly discussed as a risk factor for dementia, but the biological mechanisms are not yet fully understood. Biological markers like telomere length are relevant to study with air pollution, as they are associated with aging and dementia. The study aimed to investigate the relationship between source-specific air pollution exposure and telomere length in a low-level air pollu

BACKGROUND: Sharp force injuries display varying patterns depending on the manner of death (homicide, suicide, accidental). The purpose of this study was to analyse forensic autopsy data to examine the characteristics of sharp force injuries on the extremities, to differentiate between different manners of death and to examine demographic differences.METHODS: This retrospective cohort study utiliz

Reflection seismic data were acquired in the Sudret area of Gotland between 6 and 13 November 2023. Objectives of the survey were to obtain images of the subsurface down to the Precambrian basement in the vicinity of two cored boreholes that had been drilled earlier down to about 800 m. The seismic profiles were positioned to provide a better understanding of the sedimentary strata and local struc

Objective Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and osteoarthritis (OA) are globally prevalent chronic diseases that affect millions of individuals in ageing populations. Hip and knee replacements are well established and effective treatments in patients suffering from end-stage OA. Understanding how T2DM influences the outcomes of these surgeries is important for optimising patient care and improving s

Background There is limited knowledge on whether prior knee surgery impacts the clinical profile and treatment outcomes for individuals with knee osteoarthritis (OA). Objectives The study aimed to (i) compare individual and clinical characteristics, and (ii) evaluate whether outcomes of first-line treatment differ between individuals with prior knee surgery and those without. Methods This study us

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Prostate cancer (PC) and dementia may commonly co-occur; yet, prior evidence for bidirectional associations is inconsistent. This study aims to determine the associations between PC and dementia in large population-based studies, which may further inform clinical care. METHODS: To assess the dementia risk in men with PC, a national cohort study was conducted in 178 746 me
