Background: Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative condition that is expected to double in prevalence due to demographic shifts. Value-based healthcare is a proposed strategy to improve outcomes and decrease costs. To move towards an actual value-based health care system, condition-specific outcomes that are meaningful to patients are essential. Objective: Propose a global con
Light-by-light scattering (γγ → γγ) is a quantum-mechanical process that is forbidden in the classical theory of electrodynamics. This reaction is accessible at the Large Hadron Collider thanks to the large electromagnetic field strengths generated by ultra-relativistic colliding lead ions. Using 480 μ1 of lead-lead collision data recorded at a centre-of-mass energy per nucleon pair of 5.02 TeV by
This paper presents a general overview of WEEE and value considerations (both real and potential) as well as the specific results of a research project analysing the performance of EPR systems for lighting products, with particular focus on closing material loops. The research is based on a literature review, case studies, and interviews with key stakeholders. The case of recovery of rare earths e
Invited presentation to honour Prof. Gun Trägårdh as new European Membrane Society Honouree Member.
We compare the electron densities and Hartree potentials in the local density and the Hartree-Fock approximations to the corresponding quantities obtained from more accurate correlated wavefunctions. The comparison is made for a number of two-electron atoms, Li, and for Be. The Hartree-Fock approximation is more accurate than the local density approximation within the 1s shell and for the spin pol
Popular Abstract in Swedish Den mänskliga kroppen är ett komplext maskineri med en rad olika reglersystem och kontrollmekanismer. Flera grenar av modern biomedicinsk forskning riktar sig mot olika nivåer av detta komplexa maskineri. En av dessa grenar heter genomik, som ärläran om hur den genetiska koden som finns i varenda cell av en organism används och regleras. Slutförandet av Human Genome ProAs the ultimate workhorses of the living things, proteins undergo significant regulatory activity throughout the lifetime of a cell or an organism. Many complex diseases effect the protein composition, expression or modification in the cells or tissues they arise in. It is then no surprise that proteomics is a field full of promise, one which is expected to generate significant insights towards fu
Why is there hunger in sub-Saharan Africa? What forces drive the global food system? What is the global food system? To approach these questions, this study investigates power and politics in food, in its production and in its organization. Proceeding from a critical realist approach, focus of this study is on the challenge of African smallholder food insecurity and how it is presented as part of

Background: The causes of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) remain unknown. Gene-searching efforts are well underway, but the identification of environmental risk factors is at least as important and should be a priority because some of them may be amenable to prevention or early intervention strategies. Genetically informative studies, particularly those employing the discordant monozygotic (MZ
Residential energy-related renovations have a high potential to reduce emissions. However, organizing such renovation is riddled with high transaction costs. In response, scholars and policymakers (e.g., European Commission) have advocated the One-Stop-Shop (OSS) concept to simplify house owners' access to complex renovation solution, but adoption of the concept remains slow. So far, research has
Background. The 2023 Duke-International Society of Cardiovascular Infectious Diseases (ISCVID) criteria for infective endocarditis (IE) were introduced to improve classification of IE for research and clinical purposes. External validation studies are required. Methods. We studied consecutive patients with suspected IE referred to the IE team of Amsterdam University Medical Center (from October 20
BackgroundThe goal of the Fifth Annual Baylor College of Medicine & DNAnexus Structural Variation Hackathon was to push forward the research on structural variants (SVs) by rapidly developing and deploying open-source software. The event took place in-person and virtually in August 2023, when 49 scientists from 14 countries and 8 U.S. states collaboratively worked on projects to address critic
OBJECTIVE: To investigate to what extent individuals participated in guideline-based first-line treatments before being assigned to a wait list for knee replacement for osteoarthritis (OA), and to what extent they were recommended such treatments once on the list. Factors associated with participation in first-line management were also investigated.DESIGN: All patients on the waiting list ≥ three
The objective of this article was to assess the cost-effectiveness of screening strategies for cardiovascular diseases (CVD). A decision analytic model was constructed to estimate the costs and benefits of one-off screening strategies differentiated by screening age, sex and the threshold for initiating statin therapy (“uniform” or “age-adjusted”) from the Spanish NHS perspective. The age-adjusted
INTRODUCTION: We examined the relations of misfolded alpha synuclein (α-synuclein) with Alzheimer's disease (AD) biomarkers in two large independent cohorts. METHODS: We included Biomarkers for Identifying Neurodegenerative Disorders Early and Reliably Two (BioFINDER-2) and Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) participants (n = 2315, cognitively unimpaired, mild cognitive impairment,
Läkartidningen 5-6/2025. Egenreferat. Dödshjälp, det vill säga eutanasi och läkarassisterat självmord, är olaglig i Sverige, men debatten om legalisering är fortsatt aktuell.Läkarförbundet genomförde 2021 en enkätundersökning om läkarkårens inställning till dödshjälp. 41 procent av de svarande ansåg att dödshjälp bör tillåtas enligt svensk lag (medan 34 procent motsatte sig detta), men endast 29 p
Circularity metrics simplify complex systems, and trade-offs between simplicity, scope, and usability introduce unavoidable limitations. We revisit the Ellen MacArthur Foundation’s Material Circularity Indicator (MCI) to identify opportunities for a more accurate, comprehensive, reliable measure of circularity. Although widely used and highly regarded, the MCI exhibits limitations and methodologic
Introduction. Fava beans are an increasingly popular and viable crop, and an excellent nutritious choice for novel plant-based food products. Fava beans are industrially underexploited as a food ingredient and are today mainly used as animal feed [1]. However, fava beans are an interesting base material for producing plant-based milk. While soy milk dominates the legume-based beverage segment, the
