Social sustainability through daily activity : "Grow with horsepower" is person-centered and nature-oriented
Adipocyte traits limiting cellular insulin responsiveness and glucose transport
Adipocyte dysfunction is a hallmark of systemic insulin resistance. Insulin-responsive glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4) is downregulated in the insulin resistant state, and cellular insulin responsiveness varies depending on fat-depot origin and degree of adipose expansion. Here, we have resolved factors limiting cellular insulin responsiveness, by examining adipocyte function and traits related to g
Overuse of EEG and ECG in children with breath-holding spells and its implication for the management of the spells
Neighbourhood deprivation and type 2 diabetes in patients with bipolar disorder : A nationwide follow-up study
Incidence of intracranial hemorrhagic complications after anterior circulation endovascular thrombectomy in relation to occlusion site : a nationwide observational register study
BACKGROUND: Intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) is a potentially severe complication of endovascular thrombectomy (EVT). However, the relationship between the incidence and severity of ICH and vascular occlusion location is not well described.OBJECTIVE: To present a comprehensive analysis of subtypes of ICHs and their relationship to the occlusion site following EVT in the anterior circulation.METHODS:
Implementation of precision medicine in healthcare—A European perspective
The technical development of high-throughput sequencing technologies and the parallel development of targeted therapies in the last decade have enabled a transition from traditional medicine to personalized treatment and care. In this way, by using comprehensive genomic testing, more effective treatments with fewer side effects are provided to each patient—that is, precision or personalized medici
New device, ‘old’ allergens. Allergic contact dermatitis caused by the Dexcom G7 glucose sensor
Background: Allergic contact dermatitis (ACD) has been reported as an adverse effect from the use of several glucose sensors and insulin pumps from different manufacturers. Isobornyl acrylate (IBOA) has been identified as a major culprit sensitizer, but also other acrylates and (modified) colophonium have been reported as causes of ACD. Objectives: To report the two first cases diagnosed with ACD

Keeping in time : The design of qualitative longitudinal research in SLA
Language development is a long-term process. Individual-level longitudinal case studies have been foundational to SLA. However, methodologies that can support person-focused and process-oriented research lack consolidation. Qualitative longitudinal (QL) research (Neale, 2021a, 2021b) is a methodology that facilitates exploration of the influences of time over time. It provides a temporal architect
Cognitive dysfunction in diabetes–the ‘forgotten’ diabetes complication : a narrative review
Background: In addition to peripheral neuropathy of various kinds, diabetes can also cause central neuropathy, which among other things can manifest itself as premature cognitive dysfunction, often linked to vascular dysfunction. Although the link between diabetes and cognitive dysfunction was discovered more than 100 years ago and has important clinical implications, this diabetes complication re

When Caregiving Becomes Desperate : Subjectivity, responsibility, and ethics in contemporary mother-daughter narratives of care
To be a caregiver while also being next of kin is emotionally charged. This article discusses narratives of care that goes beyond what Amelia DeFalco calls “caregiving at the limit”, i.e. care necessary for basic survival. In these narratives of what we call desperate care, not only is life at stake, but the care is anxious and urgent, partly done against the will of the care recipient, and the ca
Brain change trajectories in healthy adults correlate with Alzheimer’s related genetic variation and memory decline across life
Throughout adulthood and ageing our brains undergo structural loss in an average pattern resembling faster atrophy in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Using a longitudinal adult lifespan sample (aged 30-89; 2–7 timepoints) and four polygenic scores for AD, we show that change in AD-sensitive brain features correlates with genetic AD-risk and memory decline in healthy adults. We first show genetic risk li
Patients’ Experiences of Person-Centered Care in the Context of Allogenic Stem Cell Transplantation
Studies addressing patients’ experiences of person-centered care (PCC) in the context of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) are scarce; hence, this study aimed to explore patients’ experiences of PCC, and its associations with individual characteristics and health-related quality of life, in the context of allogeneic stem cell transplantation. It is a cross-sectional su

The Free Hormone Hypothesis: Is Free Serum25-Hydroxyvitamin D a Better Marker for Bone Mineral Density in Older Women?
It is presently unclear whether free serum 25 hydroxyvitamin D (S 25(OH)D) better reflects bone health than total S 25(OH)D. We have previously shown that summer total S 25(OH)D values are more useful to predict bone mineral density (BMD) than winter values. Our objective was therefore to compare the relative importance of free and total S 25(OH)D for BMD by season. BMD was measured by dual energy
Using metabolic data to investigate the role of brood size in the development of endothermy
Altricial songbirds transform themselves from naked poikilotherms to fully feathered endothermic homeotherms over a matter of days from hatching to fledging. The ontogeny of endothermy is a developmental milestone for birds that not only face warmer average temperatures, but also increasingly frequent cold snaps and extreme weather. The timing of development of endothermy has been studied in altri
Loss of Chromosome Y in Neuroblastoma Is Associated With High-Risk Disease, 11q-Deletion, and Telomere Maintenance
Acromegaly management in the Nordic countries: A Delphi consensus survey
Objective: Acromegaly is associated with increased morbidity and mortality if left untreated. The therapeutic options include surgery, medical treatment, and radiotherapy. Several guidelines and recommendations on treatment algorithms and follow-up exist. However, not all recommendations are strictly evidence-based. To evaluate consensus on the treatment and follow-up of patients with acromegaly i
