The interplay between Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatotic Liver Disease (MASLD) and viral hepatitis, primarily hepatitis B virus (HBV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV), presents a complex challenge in managing chronic liver diseases. Recent epidemiological insights suggest an escalating prevalence of MASLD globally, attributed mainly to the obesity epidemic and associated metabolic disorders. Co
År 2045 har Sverige som mål att ha netto-noll utsläpp av växthusgaser. Från och med år 2019 betyder det att utsläppen måste minska med 6–10 % per år. År 2018 stod bygg- och fastighetssektorn i Sverige för 21 % av landets utsläpp av växthusgaser, vilket motsvarade 11,8 miljoner ton koldioxidekvivalenter. Om de utsläpp på 5,8 miljoner ton koldioxidekvivalenter som genererades på grund av import av s
The most widely used definition of a species is that it is reproductively isolated from other populations. Yet, most species are described on the basis of morphological criteria, and reproductive isolation is seldom tested. Using the ant genus Myrmica Latreille (Hymenoptera, Formicidae) as a model, we ask whether species described as distinct based on (often subtle) morphological differences indee
Background A substantial untapped potential for risk reduction may be fulfilled by applying intensive lifestyle interventions targeting the co-existing risky lifestyle factors Smoking, Nutrition (both malnutrition and obesity), risky Alcohol intake, and Physical inactivity (SNAP) before surgery. This trial will compare the effect of combined and individually tailored prehabilitation with standard
Biphasic insulin secretion, which fails in type 2 diabetes, can be provoked by various nutrient stimuli, glucose being the superior physiological one. To identify pathways that may play a role in β-cell stimulus-secretion coupling, we compared β-cell and islet functional, secretory, and metabolic responses to glucose and 2-aminobicyclo-(2,2,1)-heptane-2-carboxylic acid (BCH), a leucine analog, tha
We examine the vacuum stability of gauge symmetry breaking in five dimensions, compactified on the S1/(Z2×Z2′) orbifold. We consider SU(N), Sp(N), SO(2N), and SO(2N+1) theories in the bulk, and provide an exhaustive classification of possible parity assignments that lead to stable orbifolds and of the corresponding symmetry breaking patterns. We use these results in the search for viable asymptoti
Introduction Current methods to measure the effectiveness of pancreatic protease activity are inadequate. We explored the measurement of peptide-derived amino acids following ingestion of dietary whey substrate as a sensitive test of exogenous protease activity in exocrine pancreatic insufficient (EPI) pigs. Methods We studied the activity of aspergillus protease given in combination with a novel
We report tunneling spectroscopy and transport measurements in superconducting Al and ferromagnetic insulator EuS bilayers. The samples display remanent spin splitting, roughly half the superconducting gap, and supercurrent transport above the average paramagnetic limit. We interpret this behavior as arising from the interplay between two characteristic length scales: the superconducting coherence
Background: Measuring health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in dialysis patients is essential for clinical assessment and economic evaluation. Despite the emergence and increasing use of updated instruments, evidence comparing their performance in Chinese dialysis patients remains limited. The aim of this study was to compare the measurement properties of the EQ-5D-5L and the SF-6Dv2 instruments

Erythrina alkaloids represent a rich source of complex polycyclic, bioactive natural products. In addition to their sedative and hypotensive effect, their curare-like activity and structural framework have made them attractive targets for synthetic and medicinal chemists. (+)-Dihydro-β-erythroidine (DHβE), the most potent nicotine acetylcholine receptor antagonist (nAChR) of the Erythrina fam
This paper describes the development of a new variant of stereoselective strain-release driven reactions (formal homo [3 + 2] dipolar cycloadditions) which utilize housane (1) to construct functionalized amino alcohols and pyridine-substituted cyclopentanes in two to three steps from simple and easily available building blocks (nitrones and pyridine N-oxides respectively).
Refractory acute myeloblastic leukemia (AML) is poorly studied. In this study, we characterized primary refractory AML and investigated treatment and outcome in a population-based setting. Based on all AML patients receiving intensive induction therapy at 12 Swedish hospitals from 2011 to 2018 (N = 1221), we identified 306 patients that failed to achieve composite complete remission (CRc) after fi
Purpose: In a multicenter prospective cohort study, we assessed the diagnostic yield of the Nordic guidelines for germline investigation in myeloid neoplasms and mapped the spectrum of inherited and somatic variants. Experimental Design: Eighty-five patients (acute myeloid leukemia, n = 38; myelodysplastic syndromes, n = 26; thrombocytopenia, n = 14; and other, n = 7) fulfilling the Nordic criteri
Abstract Herein we report on the decarboxylative alkenylation between alkyl carboxylic acids and enol triflates. The reaction is mediated by a dual catalytic nickel and iridium system, operating under visible light irradiation. Two competing catalytic pathways, from the excited state iridium photocatalyst, are identified. One is energy transfer from the excited state, resulting in formation of an
Phase field crystal (PFC) modeling is employed to investigate the migration dynamics of FCC and BCC symmetric tilt grain boundaries (GBs) under an applied artificial driving pressure. The evolution of GB position, velocity, mobility, structure and energy is tracked to explore the interdependencies of these quantities. The use of PFC permits simulations with atom scale spatial resolution over exten
Erythrina alkaloids and their central nervous system effects have been studied for over a century, mainly due to their potent antagonistic actions at β2-containing nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs). In the present work, we report a synthetic approach giving access to a diverse set of Erythrina natural product analogues and present the enantioselective total synthesis of (+)-Cocculine and
Abstract 4-Alkenyl- and 4-acyloxazoles represent important substructures across a diverse array of bioactive molecules. Practical methods to synthesize these motifs are, therefore, of considerable interest. Here, we develop a novel domino process wherein a cycloisomerization is followed by a 1,2-rearrangement via an oxazolonium ion to yield 4-alkenyloxazoles from an abundant β-chloro-N-benzyl prop4-Alkenyl- and 4-acyloxazoles represent important substructures across a diverse array of bioactive molecules. Practical methods to synthesize these motifs are, therefore, of considerable interest. Here, we develop a novel domino process wherein a cycloisomerization is followed by a 1,2-rearrangement via an oxazolonium ion to yield 4-alkenyloxazoles from an abundant β-chloro-N-benzyl propargylamin
Erythrina alkaloids were identified at the end of the 19th century and today, more than 100 members of the erythrinane family have been isolated. They are characterized by a unique tetracyclic, α-tertiary spiroamine scaffold. Herein we detail our efforts towards the development of a divergent enantioselective synthesis of (+)-dihydro-β-erythroidine (DHβE) - one of the most prominent members of thi
