OBJECTIVE: To summarize the effectiveness of management strategies and rehabilitation approaches for knee joint structural and molecular biomarker outcomes following anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and/or meniscal tear. DESIGN: Intervention systematic review. LITERATURE SEARCH: We searched the MEDLINE, Embase, CINAHL, CENTRAL, and SPORTDiscus databases from their inception up to November 3, 2021.
Background: Previous studies have investigated [18F]-fluorocholine (FCH) positron emission tomography with computed tomography (PET/CT) in primary staging of men with intermediate or high-risk prostate cancer and have generally shown high specificity and poor sensitivity. FCH PET/CT is not recommended for the primary staging of metastases in the European guidelines for prostate cancer. However, it
Background: Displaced olecranon fractures with a stable elbow joint are classified as Mayo type 2a or 2b and are commonly operated with tension band wiring, i.e. two K-wires and a cerclage. Retrospective studies have reported fewer reoperations and complications with cerclage fixation alone when compared to tension band wiring, though with similar long-term results. We decided to compare tension b
Background: The apolipoprotein E (APOE) ε4 allele is associated with higher cholesterol levels, and an increased risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and amyloid-related imaging abnormalities after initiation of amyloid-modifying therapies. A worse cognitive response to cholinesterase inhibitor (ChEI) treatment and longitudinal outcome in APOE ε4-carriers has been observed. Based on these c
Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingen handlar om hur fett (lipider) i kosten bryts ner och transporteras i blodet för att slutligen antingen användas som energi, byggstenar i cellväggarna eller lagras i fettväven. I den här avhandlingen kan man också läsa om hur man kan modifiera fetter med hjälp av speciella proteiner: enzymer för att förbättra näringsinnehållet och dess fysikaliska egenskaperAn important indicator of the metabolic capacity of humans is the ability to regulate plasma triacylglycerol levels and to clear triacylglycerol-rich lipoproteins (TRLs) from the circulation after a meal. This is crucial since most of the day is spent in the postprandial state. High concentrations and long circulation times of TRL remnants may be detrimental since these are considered to be highly
The impact of cytogenetic findings in AML was analyzed in the large population-based Swedish AML registry. Karyotypic patterns differed by age: t(8;21), inv(16) and t(11q23) were more common in younger patients, whereas loss of 5q, 7q and 17p, monosomal karyotype (MK) and complex karyotype (CK) were more common in older patients. Patients with ≥5 chromosome abnormalities had worse overall survival
The thesis contributes to the debate of an emerging European strategic culture on the use of force. This is highly relevant in order to understand the future development of the military operations within the Common Security and Defence Policy (CSDP). In order to be able to analyse the motivations of the following operations: Concordia, EUFOR DR Congo and Atalanta, the research builds on the constr
The main purpose of this qualitative study was to achieve better understanding in terms of staff officer’s notions about work-related bullying and interventions. There were two issues. The first one was what are the general performances on the phenomenon of bullying in the workplace? The second question was what are the performances about interventions? Seven personnel officers from Sweden were th
Sammanfattning Denna uppsats handlar om de brottsbekämpande myndigheternas användning av den okonventionella spaningsmetoden infiltration, en spaningsmetod som den svenska polisen, sedan många år, utan uttryckligt lagstöd använt sig av. Som utgångspunkt har arbetet haft ett rättssäkerhetsperspektiv på infiltrationsverksamheten. Syftet med undersökningen har, med andra ord, varit att studera det räSummary This thesis is about law enforcement agencies' use of the unconventional reconnaissance method of infiltration, a search method that the Swedish police, for many years, without the express support of the law made use of. As a starting point the work has had a legal perspective on infiltration activities. The aim of the study has, in other words, been to study the legal basis for the us
Pain upon negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) dressing removal has been reported and is believed to be associ- ated with the observation that granulation tissue grows into foam. Wound tissue damage upon removal of the foam may cause the reported pain. Calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) and substance P are neuropeptides that cause inflam- mation and signal pain and are known to be released w
Recent history of contemporary world has substantiated the fact that the secret of enjoying technological and economic leadership, lies in placing a high premium on the system and content of intellectual property (IP) rights. Nations that do so are reaping the fruit of their timely decision and are seen as role models for economic growth. The reason is obvious: the dream of scientific and technolo
Frågan om bevisning utgör en viktig fråga även i skiljeförfaranden. I synnerhet skriftlig bevisning är viktig då den överlag anses vara mer tillförlitlig än muntlig sådan. Det är därför av vikt att part får tillgång till all skriftlig bevisning, även sådan som motpart eller annan kan tänkas inneha. Om dessa dokument frivilligt företes av part eller tredje man uppstår inga problem. Problemen börjar
Chemical Loping Combustion (CLC) is a novel combustion technology in which the exhaust gas is inherently divided into oxygen depleted air in one stream and CO2 and water vapour in another. This is however under the ideal condition that the fuel conversion is complete, i.e. all the hydrocarbons in the fuel is transformed to heat, water vapour and CO2. The CO2 capture rate can under such ideal condi
This paper sets out to investigate what effects healthcare privatisation has on healthcare staffing levels and other healthcare metrics in regional Swedish healthcare. Using econometric techniques and relying on public data of public healthcare spending on private actors as a proportion of total regional healthcare spending, this paper finds that privatisation in general has no significant effects
Tillgång till tillräckliga mängder vatten av god kvalitet är en väsentlig resurs för samhället. Det behövs för mänsklig konsumtion, för produktion i industrin, för fisket, etcetera. Det är därför mycket oroande att vattenkvaliteten i Europeiska unionen successivt försämras. Östersjön som är mycket påverkad av övergödning kan nämnas som ett exempel. Övergödning orsakas av utsläpp av näringsämnen iThe supply of good quality water is an essential resource for society. It is needed for human consumption, for production processes in the industry, for fishing, etcetera. The fact that the quality of waters within the European Union is continuously deteriorating is therefore of major concern. One example is the Baltic Sea, which is heavily affected by eutrophication. Eutrophication is caused b
Background: Mental health problems are prevalent among adolescents with severe obesity, but long-term mental health outcomes after adolescent bariatric surgery are not well known. We aimed to assess mental health outcomes over 5 years of follow-up after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery in adolescents who participated in the Adolescent Morbid Obesity Surgery (AMOS) study. Methods: This was a non-ra
