A diastereospecific synthesis of vicinally substituted 2-oxazolidinones from α,β-unsaturated lactams using m-chloroperoxybenzoic acid is reported. Several highly substituted 2-oxazolidinones were obtained in 19-46% yields in a one-pot reaction with complete control over the relative stereochemistry. The proposed reaction sequence consists of a Baeyer-Villiger oxidation, an epoxidation, and a conce

Introduction: Lichen planus is a relatively common inflammatory condition of the nails, skin, and mucosal surfaces. Oesophageal involvement of lichen planus is thought to be very rare, mainly described in case reports, but is associated with a high risk of oesophageal stenosis as well as squamous cell carcinoma. No evidence-based treatment recommendations exist, with the majority of described trea

InP quantum dots (QDs) are the most competitive in terms of environmentally friendly QDs. However, the synthesis of InP QDs requires breakthroughs in low-cost and safe phosphorus precursors such as tri(dimethylamino)phosphine [(DMA)3P]. It is found that even if the oxygen is completely avoided, there are still oxidation state defects at the core/shell interface of InP QDs. Herein, the record-break

Objectives Peak exercise systolic blood pressure (SBP) is associated with future cardiovascular disease (CVD) and mortality. We aimed to evaluate the predictive value of different SBP patterns at the end of exercise with these outcomes. Methods We studied 6329 adults (45% women) referred for exercise testing, with test duration of 6-14 min, maximal effort and valid SBP measurements at the end of e

Rationale: Patients with obesity hypoventilation syndrome (OHS) have high risk of hospitalization, which might be decreased by home mechanical ventilation (HMV). Objectives: To evaluate annualized hospitalization rate (AHR) and changes in AHR in patients with OHS starting HMV and explore if there were any differences in AHR by starting HMV acutely or electively. Methods: This was a population-base

Background Monitoring labor and childbirth, early recognition, and treatment of complications are critical for preventing adverse birth outcomes. However excessive use of interventions during labor has not been demonstrated to enhance subsequent birth outcomes and may, in fact, pose a risk of harm. The World Health Organization has recently synthesized research from the last decade concerning labo

Taking advantage of the relatively automatic and easy operation procedure, continuous-flow catalysis has become a promising wastewater treatment technique for organic dye removal. However, developing suitable packing catalysts with favorable activity and low flow resistance remains a challenging task for the construction of continuous-flow catalytic systems. In this paper, we report the preparatio

Background: This study explored peer-led sex education for individuals with intellectual disabilities and/or autism (ID/ASD) from the perspective of project leaders within Swedish non-governmental organizations (NGOs). The purpose of this Grounded Theory study was to develop a conceptual model that characterizes the ways in which peer-led sex education is implemented by Swedish NGOs. This was done

The number of individuals suffering from neuropsychiatric disorders (NPDs) has increased worldwide, with 3 million disability-adjusted life-years calculated in 2019. Though research using various approaches including genetics, imaging, clinical and animal models has advanced our knowledge regarding NPDs, we still lack basic knowledge regarding the underlying pathophysiological mechanisms. Moreover

To further understand the inter-relationship of the familial transmission of major depression (MD) and alcohol use disorder (AUD), we examine, via a multivariable Cox proportional hazards model, risks for AUD and MD in 1,244,516 individuals born in Sweden from 1970 to 1990 to intact mother-father pairs as a function of parental diagnoses of MD and/or AUD. Across the nine possible mating types, we

Background: Comorbid conditions and breathlessness are associated with poor outcomes in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). We evaluated the associations of comorbid heart disease and depression/anxiety with breathlessness in daily life among people with COPD. Methods: Cross-sectional analysis from the PRAXIS cohort in central Sweden. Data on patient characteristics and the modified Medi

Aims: Studies have shown the association between personal history of diabetes mellitus (DM type 1/2) and risk of colorectal cancer (CRC). This study aims to find the association between the family history of diabetes and CRC risk. Methods: This large nationwide cohort study leveraged data from several Swedish nationwide registers (follow-up: 1964–2018) to compare the risk using standardized incide

We report tunneling spectroscopy and transport measurements in superconducting Al and ferromagnetic insulator EuS bilayers. The samples display remanent spin splitting, roughly half the superconducting gap, and supercurrent transport above the average paramagnetic limit. We interpret this behavior as arising from the interplay between two characteristic length scales: the superconducting coherence

Ordered arrays of nanocrystals, called supercrystals, have attracted significant attention owing to the collective quantum effects arising from the coupling between neighboring nanocrystals. In particular, lead halide perovskite nanocrystals are widely used because of the combination of the optical properties and faceted cubic shape, which enables the formation of highly ordered supercrystals. The

Background: Childhood (< 20 years) nervous system tumors manifest in some rare cancer syndromes but how commonly they present with familial clustering between various histological types is not well known at a nation-wide level. Our aim is to enhance understanding of familial risks in childhood nervous system cancers. Methods: We used the Swedish population and cancer data from years 1958–2021 to a

Background: Parents face mental health challenges following their child's cancer diagnosis. However, it is unknown whether parental mental illness following a childhood cancer diagnosis influences the child's mortality.Patients and methods: Using several nationwide registers in Sweden, we identified children diagnosed with cancer between ages 0 to 14 from 2005 to 2016. Parental mental illness was

Introduction: Comorbidities and public health conditions in haemophilia are receiving increasing attention. Aim: To analyse the prevalence of comorbidities and mortality in people with haemophilia (PwH) compared to matched controls in subgroups (factor consumption and sex). Methods: This study used longitudinal individual-level data (11 years) from national registers in three Nordic countries (Den

Familial clustering of lung cancer (LC) is related to shared smoking habits but the contribution of other potential factors such as sex or histology is not well known, and these are the subjects of the present study in Sweden. Family relationships (from Multigeneration register) and diagnosed cancers (from Cancer registry) were obtained from the national registers from 1961 to 2021. The overall fa
