Aim: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) regulate β-cell function, and β-cell mitochondria and insulin secretion are perturbed in diabetes. We aimed to identify key miRNAs regulating β-cell mitochondrial metabolism and novel β-cell miRNA-mitochondrial pathways. Methods: TargetScan (http://www.targetscan.org/) was used to predict if 16 miRNAs implicated in β-cell function target 27 cis-eGenes implicated in mitochon
PURPOSE: Examine the association between obesity and clinical outcomes in early breast cancer and assess if patient, tumor, and treatment characteristics modify such associations in Malmö Diet and Cancer Study patients (MDCS).METHODS: The MDCS enrolled 17,035 Swedish women from 1991 to 1996. At enrollment, participants' body mass index (BMI), waist circumference and body fat percentage measures we
Background and ObjectivesWhile chronological age is one of the most influential determinants of poststroke outcomes, little is known of the impact of neuroimaging-derived biological "brain age."We hypothesized that radiomics analyses of T2-FLAIR images texture would provide brain age estimates and that advanced brain age of patients with stroke will be associated with cardiovascular risk factors a
Importance: Clinical studies confirm that obesity is a risk factor for recurrence in postmenopausal women with hormone receptor-positive (HR+) breast cancer. Evidence suggests that women with obesity do not obtain similar protection from aromatase inhibitors as women with healthy weight. Objective: To examine the associations of body mass index (BMI) with recurrence. Design, Setting, and Participa
Background: The functional benefits of total wrist arthroplasty (TWA) over total wrist fusion (TWF) are unknown. The purpose of this prospective cohort study was to compare TWA and TWF with respect to functional outcomes and activitylimitations at up to 2 years postoperatively.Methods: Between 2015 and 2020, we enrolled all adult patients undergoing TWA or TWF for the management of symptomatic end
Evaporation is one of the main components of the hydrological cycle, and its estimation is crucial and important for water resources management issues. Access to a reliable estimator tool for evaporation simulation is important in arid and semi-arid areas such as Iran, which lose more than 70% of their received precipitation by evaporation. Current research employs the Bayesian Regularization (BR)
Objective: To explore how cancer survivors have experienced their contacts with primary care after being diagnosed with cancer, focusing on the integration between cancer specialist and primary care, and participants’ views on what could make primary care services better at catering to the needs of cancer survivors. Design: A qualitative study in which data was collected through semi-structured di
The various existing measures to quantify upper limb use from wrist-worn inertial measurement units can be grouped into three categories: 1) Thresholded activity counting, 2) Gross movement score and 3) machine learning. However, there is currently no direct comparison of all these measures on a single dataset. While machine learning is a promising approach to detecting upper limb use, there is cu
Objectives:This thesis aims to provide an overview of the epidemiology of AAV in southern Sweden, to evaluate different classification criteria in AAV. In addition we study if infection is a risk factor for later development of AAV comparing patients with AAV with a matched population cohort and to examine the occurrence of severe infections as an outcome in AAV. Methods:All adult patients diagnos
Objectives Dietary supplements may ameliorate SARS-CoV-2 infection, although scientific evidence to support such a role is lacking. We investigated whether users of the COVID-19 Symptom Study app who regularly took dietary supplements were less likely to test positive for SARS-CoV-2 infection. Design App-based community survey. Setting 445 850 subscribers of an app that was launched to enable self
BACKGROUND: There is emerging evidence that exposure to prenatal methylmercury (MeHg) from maternal fish consumption during pregnancy can differ between individuals due to genetic variation. In previous studies, we have reported that maternal polymorphisms in ABC-transporter genes were associated with maternal hair MeHg concentrations, and with children's early neurodevelopmental tests. In this st
Postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF) occurs in 20–50% of patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is also common in adults with CAD, and may contribute to POAF as well to the reoccurrence of AF in patients at long-term. In the current secondary analysis of the Randomized Intervention with Continuous Positive Airway
Abstract: Sensory impairments in the upper limb are common after stroke. Different sensory modalities can be affected such as sense of touch, pressure, pain, temperature and proprioception. The sensory impairments can negatively affect motor function, dexterity and the ability to perform daily activities. Despite these problems limited attention is paid to sensory impairments in stroke rehabilitat
BACKGROUND: Globally, 700 000 people die every year by suicide. Health care consultation patterns the period before suicide could be one potential way to identify people at risk for suicide. Therefore, this study examines health care patterns up to one year prior to the suicide by age, sex and prior diagnoses and specifically investigates if and how this differs from the general population of Skån
Title: The relevance of knowledge transfer - A qualitative study of labour-intensive organisations with high employee turnover Seminar date: 2015-06-05 Course: FEKH19, Degree Project in Strategic Management, Undergraduate Level, 15 ECTS Authors: Elina Jonsson, Hanna Sjöstrand, Linnette Ericsson Advisor: Anna Brattström Key Words: Knowledge transfer, Labour-intensive organisations, Employee turnove
In recent years, the office market has been changing, mainly due to the Covid-19 pandemic and technological innovation. This has impacted how office space is used and has led to an increase in the range of available real estate products. One of the decisions organizations need to make is whether to own or lease their space, which is a decision driven by several parameters. The right decision for a
Försörjning av varor och tjänster är en grundläggande del av ett fungerande samhälle, och stora delar av denna försörjning sker genom näringslivet och kritiska infrastrukturer. Hot i form av klimatförändringar och antagonistiska handlingar är centrala aspekter att beakta i utformningen av viktiga samhällsfunktioner för att kunna förebygga och hantera kriser. Under de senaste 10-15 åren har klimataThe supply of goods and services is a fundamental part of a functional society, and most of this supply is driven by businesses and critical infrastructures. In the shaping of vital societal functions, threats like climate change and antagonistic acts are central aspects to consider to prevent and manage potential crises. In the last 10-15 years, climate change adaption has become a tool for mitig
Conference programme Both the doctoral colloquium and the main conference take place at Campus Helsingborg, Universitetsplatsen 2, 252 25 Helsingborg. Session rooms are located close to the main entrance, on the second floor. In general, 20 minutes in total are allocated for each abstract, 15 minutes for presentation and 5 minutes for discussion. Session chairs are responsible for managing time an
