Background and purpose — Early postoperative mortality is relatively high after total hip arthroplasty (THA) that has been performed due to femoral neck fracture. However, this has rarely been investigated after adjustment for medical comorbidity and comparison with the mortality in an age-matched population. We therefore assessed early mortality in hip fracture patients treated with a THA, in the
BACKGROUND: Kinetic energy (KE) of intracardiac blood flow reflects myocardial work spent on accelerating blood and provides a mechanistic window into diastolic filling dynamics. Diastolic dysfunction may represent an early stage in the development of heart failure (HF). Here we evaluated the hemodynamic effects of impaired diastolic function in subjects with and without HF, testing the hypothesis
The construction industry is affected by several ongoing crises, derived from e.g. the climate emergency and geopolitical challenges. Thus, new thinking and novel business models are much needed. The major role of the construction industry in the climate energy and resource depletion calls for sustainable and circular business models specifically. Consequently, this study aims to develop a sustain
Stroke represents one of the most significant global health challenges of the 21st century, with 11.9 million people experiencing stroke annually and a disproportionate burden falling on low- and middle-income countries, where 87% of stroke deaths and 89% of disability occur. Despite stroke being highly preventable—with 84% of the burden attributable to modifiable risk factors—and the availability
BACKGROUND: Secondary peritonitis is a serious condition with significant morbidity and mortality. Its management requires emergency laparotomy for source control. Vacuum-assisted closure (VAC) and primary abdominal closure (PAC) are the main strategies for managing the laparostomy after source control. Despite the increasing use of VAC, concerns persist regarding its complications and long-term o
Background Treatment of severe hemophilia A (SHA) with FVIII concentrates is complicated by the development of neutralizing inhibitors in about 30% during the first 50 exposure days (EDs). Despite extensive research, inhibitor risk of different FVIII concentrates remains to be elucidated. Objectives This study aimed to analyze inhibitor development according to (classes of) individual FVIII concen

Abstract – Introduction: Peripheral intravenous catheterization is commonly required in sick neonates but remains challenging due to small vessels, leading to multiple attempts and complications. This review evaluated the benefits and harms of device-assisted techniques versus standard technique. Methods: We searched MEDLINE, Embase, CENTRAL, Cochrane Reviews, WHO ICTRP, and ClinicalTrials.gov (Oc
Objective: Worse women's outcomes after elective standard endovascular aneurysm repair have been widely reported. Similar data have surfaced from cohorts undergoing fenestrated and branched repair; however, studies reporting from a sex perspective are rare and mostly limited to single centre designs. This study aimed to examine survival following nationwide complex endovascular repair according to
BACKGROUND: Staphylococcus aureus bacteremia is associated with high mortality. Whether cefazolin or an antistaphylococcal penicillin should be preferred for the treatment of methicillin-susceptible S. aureus bacteremia is unclear.METHODS: In an ongoing international Bayesian adaptive platform trial, we conducted an open-label, randomized comparison of cefazolin with an antistaphylococcal penicill
Background and Purpose Post-mastectomy radiotherapy (PMRT) improves both the locoregional control and survival in advanced breast cancer. While the use of bolus can enhance skin dose, many oncologists prefer not to use it because of the dramatic increase in skin toxicity. The optimal technique to ensure adequate skin dose is unknown, and this study compares the superficial dose for three technique
The main demographic and psychological correlates of Well-Being (WB) are well-established, but have not yet been assessed in the Swedish population–regularly ranked among the world's top five ranked WB nations–based on large, nationally representative data. Using 2023 Global Flourishing Study data (N = 15,068), this paper analyzes Swedish WB across three domains: demography (e.g., gender, age, and

Illumination of dairy barns impacts animal health, milk production, and building energy efficiency. The aim of this study was to assess the existing daylighting and electric lighting conditions of dairy barns located in Southern Sweden. The study specifically examined how different architectural features impact the lighting environment, aiming to identify retrofit potentials in older barns and are
BACKGROUND: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is common among people with HIV (PWH), although studies comparing T2DM-related complications in people with and without HIV (PWoH) remain limited. This was assessed using data from the Cohort Study on Morbidity and HIV in Sweden (COSMOHS).METHOD: Nationwide study including Swedish residents born 1930-2006, diagnosed with T2DM between 2010 and 2019, follo
Additive manufacturing creates surfaces with random roughness, impacting heat transfer and pressure loss differently than traditional sand–grain roughness. Further research is needed to understand these effects. We conducted high-fidelity heat transfer simulations over threedimensional additive manufactured surfaces with varying roughness heights and skewness. Based on an additive manufactured Inc
