BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: A new concept to increase return to work for patients listed as sick with chronic musculoskeletal pain has been used at a rehabilitation centre in Luleå, Sweden. The programme includes work for three days a week and intensive rehabilitation for two days a week, for 12 weeks, as a combination of 'on the job' training and rehabilitation after a period off work sick. The rehab
Corynebacterium is a genus that can contaminate blood cultures and also cause severe infections like infective endocarditis (IE). Our purpose was to investigate microbiological and clinical features associated with contamination and true infection. A retrospective population-based study of Corynebacterium bacteremia 2012–2017 in southern Sweden was performed. Corynebacterium isolates were species
OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the safety of intra-articular sprifermin (primary), and to evaluate systemic exposure, biomarkers, histology, and other cartilage parameters in patients with advanced osteoarthritis (OA).METHODS: This was a first-in-human, double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled trial of single and multiple ascending doses of sprifermin from 3-300 μg in knee OA patients scheduled for t
PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to present an experimental study which aims at assessing the potentially misleading effect of graphic elements on food packaging. The authors call these elements potentially misleading elements (PMEs) as they can give customers false expectations. They are either highlighted numerical information (30 per cent fibre, 8 per cent fat, 100 per cent natural […]) or p
The aim of this thesis was to compare different ways of dissociating tissue - specifically breast cancer tissue - and sorting out tumour cells and immune cells from the dissociated tissue using acoustophoresis in a microfluidic chip. Due to ethical issues with using tumour tissues to work on the methodology of a project, ultimately only healthy breast tissue was used in this work. Two dissociatio
Based on the feasibility study [4], the goal of this master thesis is to compile custom firmware for the XM112 Pulsed Coherent Radar Module, which features a state of the art radar sensor integrated with a microcontroller unit (MCU). This allows the use of custom firmware to check the plausibility of real-time data processing on the radar signals and will lay some of the groundwork for further dev
In the last century, agricultural intensification has led to loss of permanent pastures in the landscape which has been correlated with a loss in biodiversity. Specifically, small specialist species are more negatively affected. Often because they have a higher demand on suitable complementary habitats, larger home-range requirements of a high quality. Small species also have a lower mobility and
Bakgrund: Obesitas och psykisk ohälsa tillhör de största globala hälsoutmaningarna i modern tid och har under de senaste decennierna varit ett växande problem. Människor har fått en mer stillasittande livsstil och större tillgång på kaloririk föda. Faktorerna som påverkar prevalensen är många men att det behöver ske en förändring är säkert. Syfte och frågeställningar: Syftet var att kartlägga BMI,
Fund companies and banks argue that letting them manage one’s money is a wise decision. They argue that they are able to create substantial growth in value for the investor without requiring any other input than a small fee and an amount to be invested. This essay tests this claim in a two folded analysis. Time series data with historical value developments of 24 out of the 30 largest Swedish equ
Background: Palliative care needs in patients with cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are expected to increase. For the planning of equitable palliative care, it is important to understand where people with CVD die. The aim was to examine trends in place of death, associated factors including utilization of specialized palliative services, and to what extent longitudinal development is influenced by na
Recent divergence can obscure species boundaries among closely related taxa. Silene section Italicae (Caryophyllaceae) has been taxonomically controversial, with about 30 species described. We investigate species delimitation within this section using 500 specimens sequenced for one nuclear and two plastid markers. Despite the use of a small number of genes, the large number of sequenced samples
Purpose: The relationship between prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level and prostate cancer risk remains subject to fundamental disagreements. We hypothesized that the risk of prostate cancer on biopsy for a given PSA level is affected by identifiable characteristics of the cohort under study. Experimental Design: We used data from five European and three U.S. cohorts of men undergoing biopsy for
OBJECTIVES: The safety of generic substitution of antiseizure drugs (ASDs) has been questioned for many years. This study aimed to identify physicians' attitudes to the generic substitution of ASDs in epilepsy and which factors were of significance when deciding on compound substitutions.MATERIAL AND METHODS: A cross-sectional web-based survey was sent to neurologists and neurology residents in pu
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is characterized by repeated episodes of upper airway obstruction during sleep, and it is closely linked to several cardiovascular issues due to intermittent hypoxia, nocturnal hypoxemia, and disrupted sleep patterns. Pulmonary hypertension (PH), identified by elevated pulmonary arterial pressure, shares a complex interplay with OSA, contributing to cardiovascular com
Purpose: To compare the effects of ageing and glaucoma progression on the thickness of the circumpapillary retinal nerve fibre layer (cpRNFL) and to evaluate the performance of a set of optical coherence tomography (OCT) progression analyses. Methods: The cpRNFL was measured twice by OCT at each of two visits made 10 years apart in 69 healthy individuals and 49 glaucoma patients. Both visits also
