Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC) is caused by a germline mutation in one of several DNA repair genes, which in the tumors is reflected as microsatellite instability (MSI). MSI+ tumors have been found to carry somatic frameshift mutations in mononucleotide repeats within the coding regions of several genes involved in growth control, apoptosis, and DNA repair, e.g., TGFBRII, BAX, I

Background: Forensic psychiatric patients present a challenge as they manifest severe mental disorders together with criminal behaviour. There are well-known risk factors for criminal behaviour in the general population, yet knowledge of what predicts reconviction in the Swedish forensic population in the long-term perspective is still insufficient. Aims: The study aims to (1) describe background

Pancreatic islets express high levels of the orphan G-protein coupled receptor C5C (GPRC5C), the function of which remains to be established. Here we have examined the role of GPRC5C in the regulation of insulin secretion and β-cell survival and proliferation using human and mouse pancreatic islets. The expression of GPRC5C was analysed by RNA-sequencing, qPCR, western blotting and confocal micros

Approximately 25% of all patients with stage II colorectal cancer will experience recurrent disease and subsequently die within 5 years. MicroRNA-21 (miR-21) is upregulated in several cancer types and has been associated with survival in colon cancer. In the present study we developed a robust in situ hybridization assay using high-affinity Locked Nucleic Acid (LNA) probes that specifically detect

Small remnants of non-arable habitat within the farmland mosaic are considered important for the conservation of farmland biodiversity, but their contribution to landscape-scale species richness is poorly understood. In the present study, we examined the relative contributions of different habitat types to the landscape-scale species richness of vascular plants within farmland of varying landscape

Background: Carbohydrate antigen 125 (CA125) is a mucin produced by serosal cells in response to mechanical and inflammatory stimuli. CA125 has emerged as prognostic biomarker in heart failure (HF) and correlates with markers of fluid overload, echocardiographic parameters and prognosis in HF patients. In patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS), elevated CA125 is correlated with a higher risk

BackgroundIbrutinib, a Bruton tyrosine kinase inhibitor, prolongs progression-free survival when added to immunochemotherapy as first line treatment. The ENRICH trial compared the chemotherapy-free combination of ibrutinib and the anti-CD20 antibody rituximab (ibrutinib–rituximab) with standard immunochemotherapy (R-CHOP [rituximab–cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisolone] or b

Quaternary ammonium (QA) cations with high alkaline stability are crucial for the long term performance of anion-exchange membrane (AEM) fuel cells. Here, we have tethered poly(phenylene oxide) (PPO) with 8 different hetero-cycloaliphatic QA cations via pentyl spacer chains. The thermal and alkaline stability, as well as hydroxide ion conductivity, were systematically evaluated with the primary ai

Background/purpose: Biliary atresia is the most common reason for newborn cholestasis and pediatric liver transplantation. Even after normalization of serum bilirubin after portoenterostomy, most patients require liver transplantation by adulthood due to expanding fibrosis. We addressed contemporary outcomes of biliary atresia in the Nordic countries. Methods: Data on center and patients character

Objective: To assess the risk of suicide after a diagnosis of urinary bladder cancer (UBC) compared with the standard population and to identify potential risk factors and time dependence associated with suicide in patients with UBC. Method: We used data from the Bladder Cancer Data Base Sweden 2.0 (BladderBaSe), including all individuals aged 18 years or older, diagnosed with UBC between 1997 and

Objective: Mounting evidence supports an association between the intestinal microbiota and diverse pulmonary pathologies (ie, gut-lung axis). Although intestinal dysbiosis is a feature of systemic sclerosis (SSc), no prior studies have investigated the relationship between intestinal microbiota and SSc-associated interstitial lung disease (ILD) in a multinational cohort. This study aimed to charac

BackgroundTo enable immunotherapy for ovarian cancers, precision targets for immune priming as well as patient stratification approaches are required. The tumor microenvironment in particularly the rare subtypes of low-grade serous, mucinous, clear cell and endometrioid ovarian cancer, remains poorly characterized, and these tumors have been largely ignored in the immuno-oncology setting.MethodsWe

PURPOSE: Provision of adequate support is much needed to secure equal educational opportunities for students with developmental language disorder (DLD). Important perspectives on support provision and its impact on academic progress are held by school professionals, caregivers, and students with DLD. This study sought to further the current knowledge on the perceived relation between educational s

This study investigated the changes in the physical activity of Japanese breast cancer survivors during and after the state of emergency declaration (SOED) due to the spread of COVID-19. Participants were survivors of stage I-IIa breast cancer diagnosed between the ages of 18 and 60 years who wore a wearable device (Fitbit Versa) before and after the SOED period. Outcomes included steps per day on

AIMS: To build a comprehensive biobank integrated in the Swedish Heart Failure Registry (SwedeHF) comprising comprehensive clinomic data, proteomic, transcriptomic and genomic information in combination with clinical and diagnostic characteristics and additional ICD-code registry data.METHODS: Blood and urine samples will be biobanked at SwedeHF registration with an optional second sampling after

BACKGROUND: The incidence of postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs3) following abdominal surgery varies across surgical specialties. It remains unclear to what extent the incidence of PPCs is attributable to known patient-related factors and anaesthesia duration, rather than to differences inherent to the surgical specialty itself.METHODS: Post-hoc analysis of an observational study describi

Background The purpose of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to (i) evaluate effects of exercise on cancer-related lymphedema (CRL) incidence, and (ii) explore whether effect differed according to patient and exercise intervention characteristics. Methods A search of 6 electronic databases was undertaken to identify intervention studies published up to May 2025. Studies included individu
