Background/Aim To evaluate circumferential resection margin(CRM) as a risk factor for distant metastasis (DM) in rectal cancer.The treatment of rectal cancer has evolved over the last decades.Surgical radicality is the single most important factor in preventingrecurrences, both locally and distantly. CRM B 1.0 mm is consideredto increase recurrence risk. However, not all patients with CRMB 1.0 mm
Aim: There is ongoing controversy regarding the extent to which Hartmann's procedure (HP) should be used in rectal cancer treatment. This study was designed to investigate 30-day postoperative morbidity and mortality following HP, anterior resection (AR) and abdominoperineal resection (APR) for rectal cancer using a national registry. Methods: All patients operated for rectal cancer, tumour height
Ferritin, the central iron storage protein, has attracted attention as a biomarker of severe COVID-19. Few studies have investigated regulators of iron metabolism in the context of COVID-19. The aim was to evaluate biomarkers for iron metabolism in the acute phase response to community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) caused by SARS-CoV-2 compared with CAP caused by bacteria or influenza virus in hospital
Peptihub (https://bioinformaticscollege.ir/peptihub/) is a meticulously curated repository of cancer-related peptides (CRPs) that have been documented in scientific literature. A diverse collection of CRPs is included in the PeptiHub, showcasing a spectrum of effects and activities. While some peptides demonstrated significant anticancer efficacy, others exhibited no discernible impact, and some e
Background: Insufficient physical activity is a growing public health concern and is closely linked to obesity in both adults and children. Swedish physical activity on prescription (PAP) is effective in increasing physical activity levels in adults, but knowledge about how PAP is used in paediatric healthcare is lacking. Therefore, this study aimed to explore experiences of working with PAP for c
Community gardens (CGs) in university settings are faced with challenges associated with a transient and inexperienced population of student gardeners, but they also have the potential to have a lasting impact on the food behaviours of many young people. This paper undertakes a systematic critical review of literature about University Community Gardens for Sustainability (UCGS) in order to suggest
Background: Symptomatic osteoarthritis of the basal joint of the thumb (trapeziometacarpal joint) is a common disabling condition mainly affecting women. It is frequently treated with complete removal of the trapezium with or without soft-tissue interposition. There is limited evidence about whether removal of the trapezium affects stability of the wrist joint and increases the risk of developing
BACKGROUND: This study aimed to identify the cumulative incidence and risk factors of metachronous peritoneal metastasis (M-PM) from colorectal cancer in patients who had intended curative treatment. METHODS: Patients with colorectal cancer were identified using the Danish Colorectal Cancer Group database for 2006-2015. The Danish Pathology Registry and the Danish National Patient Registry were us
Climate change mitigation requires rapid expansion of low-carbon electricity but there is a disagreement on whether available technologies such as renewables and nuclear power can be scaled up sufficiently fast. Here we analyze the diffusion of nuclear (from the 1960s), as well as wind and solar (from the 1980-90s) power. We show that all these technologies have been adopted in most large economie
Under de senaste två decennierna har sexualbrottslagstiftningen, som återfinns i brottsbalkens sjätte kapitel, genomgått flera omfattande reformer. Flera av dessa har syftat till att skärpa straffansvaret vid sexualbrott på distans. Vid genomförda reformer har lagstiftarens syfte alltjämt varit att skifta fokus från de sexuella handlingarnas tekniska karaktär till kränkningen som sådan vid avgränsOver the past two decades, the legislation on sexual offences, which is found in Chapter 6 of the Swedish Criminal Code, has undergone several extensive reforms. Several of these have aimed to increase criminal liability for remote sexual offences. Throughout these reforms, the legislator’s intent has consistently been to shift the focus from the technical nature of the sexual acts to the violatio
Studiens syfte var att psykometriskt undersöka ett testverktyg för mätning av matematiskt problemlösningsförmåga. För detta syfte fick 273 elever i åk 2 göra det läsplattebaserade testet Klurisen vid två tillfällen och en svensk version av Iowa Test of Basic Skills, deltest Mathematical Problem Solving, benämnt IOWA, vid ett tillfälle. Studien fann att Klurisens deltest, A- och B-del hade otillräcThe purpose of this study was to examine the psychometric properties of Klurisen, a test measuring mathematical problem-solving ability. A total of 273 Second grade students participated in trials, testing Klurisen twice and an adapted Swedish version of a subtest of the Iowa Test of Basic Skills once. Results indicated that the reliability of the two subtests of Klurisen were low when assessed se
Novel approach for membrane modification to improve separation performance and antifouling stability was proposed. It involves using of 0.1–0.3 wt.% aqueous solutions of Praestol 859 (cationic polyelectrolyte based on copolymer of acrylamide and 2-acryloxyethyltrimethylammonium chloride) as coagulants upon membrane preparation via non-solvent induced phase separation. It was shown that the additio
This thesis examines the evolution of Policy Coherence for Development (PCD) in the EU. The overarching purpose is to give an example of ideational causation in the EU, and concretely, to illustrate how a norm can cause changes to policy and to policymaking. It is argued that the PCD concept is essentially a norm, because it provides a guideline for how to prioritize between differing and often co
Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka om det fanns ett samband mellan bra taluppfattning och frekvensoberoende (rak dämpning) i hörselskydd. Ett annat syfte var att undersöka om det fanns någon skillnad på taluppfattningen mellan normalhörande och hörselskadade vid objektiva och subjektiva taluppfattningstester med simulerade hörselskydd, där talet var blandat med talvägt brus. I undersökninge
The purpose of the study was to capture a number of views on what impact language has on integration processes and social life. Since language is an important component of communication amongst people, it affects several aspects of everyday life such as occupation and social participation. To accomplish the aim eight people of foreign origin with experience of studying the language education progr
Digitalisering och sociala medier har förändrat hur konsumenter rör sig genom kundresan. Plattformar som TikTok har bidragit till en mer komplex och icke-linjär kundresa där inspiration, informationssökning, interaktion och konsumtion sker parallellt. Samtidigt har användargenererat innehåll fått ökad betydelse för hur konsumenter värderar information och fattar köpbeslut. Mot denna bakgrund under
