Ghrelin is a 28 a.a. gastric peptide, recently identified as a natural ligand of the growth hormone secretagogue receptor (orphan receptor distinct from the receptor fur growth hormone releasing hormone). In the present study. radioimmunoassay demonstrated ghrelin-like material in the rat oxyntic mucosa with moderate amounts also in antrum and duodenum. Small amounts: were found in the distal inte
Due to its effects on the atmospheric lifetime of methane, the burdens of tropospheric ozone and growth of secondary organic aerosol, isoprene is central among the biogenic compounds that need to be taken into account for assessment of anthropogenic air pollution-climate change interactions. Lack of process-understanding regarding leaf isoprene production as well as of suitable observations to con
Background: Basic management for patients who have suffered a cardiac arrest and are admitted to an intensive care unit (ICU) after resuscitation includes setting targets for blood pressure and managing sedation and temperature. However, optimal targets and management are unknown. Methods: The STEPCARE (Sedation, Temperature and Pressure after Cardiac Arrest and Resuscitation) trial is a multicent
Bob Emerson’s influence on Swedish sociology is wide-ranging and multifaceted. Bob presented this ethnomethodological approach to ethnography on several occasions to a Swedish audience. Our loose network of cultural criminology in Lund developed into what is now the Crime, Control, Culture group at our department, a successful research community consisting of BA and MA courses, researchers, lectur
Järnvägen mellan Malmö och Göteborg, Västkustbanan, ska utökas till dubbelspår. Innan utbyggnad är Västkustbanan dubbelspårig hela vägen mellan Ängelholm och Göteborg, förutom sträckan genom Varberg. Utbyggnad mellan Varberg och Hamra från enkelspår till dubbelspår ska genomföras. En tunnel byggs under centrala Varberg och en nedsänkt station byggs i ett öppet tråg. Genom totalentreprenad på bestä
Bakgrund: I dagens samhälle är det cirka 80% av världens ungdomar och 30% av vuxna som inte når upp till de krav som WHO och FYSS rekommenderar för en god hälsa. Den tekniska utvecklingen i vårt samhälle ökar snabbt och gör att tillgången på elektroniska enheter blir enklare och skärmtiden ökar. Studier visar att ökad skärmtid är associerat med fysisk inaktivitet, ökat stillasittande, ogynnsamma k
Two large population-based case-control studies are reviewed. The aim is to determine the effects of HLA, other genetic factors and immune markers (ICA, IAA and GAD65Ab) on the age at onset of insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) in 0-34 year olds. The primary HLA risk gene sequence for IDDM was difficult to identify because of the low recombination frequency within the HLA region. The frequ
Atomic layer deposition (ALD) of HfOx layers has emerged as a promising strategy for interface passivation in chalcopyrite-based thin-film solar cells. However, the nucleation dynamics of (Ag,Cu)(In,Ga)Se2 (ACIGS) absorbers remain insufficiently understood, particularly regarding the interplay between absorber composition and alkali postdeposition treatments (PDTs). Here, we employ in situ ambient
Randomised controlled trial (RCT) protocols contain essential details needed to understand and evaluate the trial's planned aims, design, data collection methods, monitoring, data analysis, and participants' safety. However, key information is often omitted from paediatric RCT protocols, including details on dose adjustments of interventions based on age, body surface area, or weight; developmenta
Hepatitis A virus (HAV) remains a preventable cause of acute viral hepatitis, with an estimated 159 million new infections and 39 000 deaths in 2019. Although improved care and hygiene reduced deaths, global incidence rose by approximately 4%, driven by increased symptomatic cases and population growth. The availability of safe and highly immunogenic vaccines and the absence of chronic carriage ma

Objectives: Sjögren's disease (SjD) and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) share genetic risk at the DDX6-CXCR5 locus (11q23.3). Identifying and functionally characterising shared SNPs spanning this locus can provide new insights into common genetic mechanisms of autoimmunity. Methods: Transdisease meta-analyses, fine-mapping, and bioinformatic analyses prioritised shared likely functional single
Background and Aims: Colon capsule endoscopy (CCE) provides a non-invasive alternative to traditional colonoscopy. This study evaluated the feasibility, safety, diagnostic yield (DY), and patient satisfaction of the OMOM CC100 CCE system, with special focus on fully remote (n = 30) and partially remote (n = 89) administration across four centres to advance decentralised models. Methods: This prosp
Context. The Near-InfraRed Planet Searcher (NIRPS) is a high-resolution, high-stability near-infrared (NIR) spectrograph equipped with an adaptive optics (AO) system. Installed on the ESO 3.6-m telescope at La Silla Observatory, Chile, it was developed to enable radial velocity (RV) measurements of low-mass exoplanets around M dwarfs and to characterise exoplanet atmospheres in the NIR. Aims. This
