Objective. To investigate the course of disability related to the upper extremities (UEs) in early rheumatoid arthritis (RA), and to assess correlations between such disability and clinical variables, including grip force. Methods. In an inception cohort of patients with early RA (diagnosed 1995-2005, N = 222, follow-up 10 yrs), disability of the UEs was assessed using a subscore of the Health Ass

BACKGROUND: Individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI) now live longer, which increases the risk of cardiovascular disease. Knowledge of cardiovascular risk factors amenable to intervention are therefore needed to support their healthy aging. OBJECTIVE: To describe the occurrence of cardiovascular risk factors among older adults with long-term SCI and investigate the association with sociodemograph

Background: Glucose is a routine emergency sample. General guidelines for inpatient hyperglycemia are scarce, except in myocardial infarction, stroke, and perioperative/ICU. Previous studies found admission glucose associated with increased mortality in specific conditions. Scandinavian data, and for general patients, are scarcer. We investigated admission glucose levels, 30-day mortality, and len

Background: Many inborn errors of metabolism (IEMs) may present as sudden infant death (SID). Nowadays, increasing numbers of patients with IEMs are identified pre-symptomatically by population neonatal bloodspot screening (NBS) programmes. However, some patients escape early detection because their symptoms and signs start before NBS test results become available, they even die even before the sa

Background Venture Creation Programs (VCPs) provide a unique experiential learning setting in which real-world uncertainty, emotional dynamics, and iterative learning cycles shape entrepreneurial decision-making. Research Gap While prior research has established the importance of effectuation and causation in entrepreneurship, less is known about the factors influencing students’ use of these log

AimsDyspnoea accounts for nearly 5% of emergency department (ED) visits. Our aim was to describe the in-hospital and long-term outcomes of patients admitted to the ED for dyspnoea, based on their underlying aetiology, and to determine if prognosis varies according to the hospitalization setting.MethodsWe analyzed 18 903 consecutive patients (48% male, average age 73 years) hospitalized after an ED

Purpose Programs referred to as Fast-Track/Rapid Recovery/Enhanced Recovery After Surgery have proven both effective and safe in joint replacement surgery, to the degree where same-day discharge (SDD) has been attempted in carefully selected cases at specialized outpatient units. Therefore, the primary aim of this study was to evaluate a same-day surgery protocol regarding safety using the minor p

Objective: To compare the adverse event (AE)-related discontinuation rate with celecoxib vs. diclofenac when given to reduce joint pain associated with knee or hip osteoarthritis (OA) in elderly patients. Methods: This was a double-blind, randomized, multicentre, parallel-group, 1-year comparison of celecoxib 200 mg once daily and diclofenac 50 mg twice daily in 925 patients with OA aged >/= 60 ye

About 80% of all Swedish social workers are women, which makes male social workers a minority in the Swedish social workers labour force. Research shows that men in women dominated professions get benefits in relation to women. One of the benefits that men possess is that they become more sought after in the women dominated labour market. Our purpose with this study was to examine how male social

3–27 August, 20–24 September, 25–29 October, 22–26 November 2021, 24–28 January 2022 A collaboration on the construction of a Mixed Reality Somatic Archive based on Guðjónsdóttir’s choreographic work. Funded by AUTONOM in Berlin, the work explores the use of Mixed Reality techniques with an added layer of Artificial Intelligence. Guðjónsdóttir has developed a genre of performative body language, a

An interleaved pseudocinematographic FLASH (fast low-angle shot) sequence with additional pulsed gradients for flow encoding was used to quantify cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) flow velocities and CSF production. Flow-dependent phase information was obtained by subtracting two differently encoded phase images. The phase information in the resultant image was converted to flow velocity with a calibratio

Relentless CMOS scaling coupled with lower design tolerances is making ICs increasingly susceptible to wear-out related permanent faults and transient faults, necessitating on-chip fault tolerance in future chip microprocessors (CMPs). In this paper we introduce a new energy-efficient fault-tolerant CMP architecture known as Redundant Execution using Critical Value Forwarding (RECVF). RECVF is bas

Ultrafast time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy has been used to investigate the excited-state dynamics of the basic eumelanin building block 5,6-dihydroxyindole-2-carboxylic acid (DHICA), its acetylated, methylated, and carboxylic ester derivatives, and two oligomers, a dimer and a trimer in the O-acetylated forms. The results show that (1) excited-state decays are faster for the trimer relativ

As one of the successful approaches to GaAs surface passivation, wet-chemical nitridation is applied here to relate the effect of surface passivation to carrier recombination processes in bulk GaAs. By combining time-resolved photoluminescence and optical pump-THz probe measurements, we found that surface hole trapping dominates the decay of photoluminescence, while photoconductivity dynamics is l

The energy justice framework serves as an important decision-making tool in order to understand how different principles of justice can inform energy systems and policies. The realization of the urgency of providing modern energy technology and services particularly to rural areas has prompted both the Nepalese government and development institutions to focus on community-run renewable energy faci

Background: About two-thirds of patients with Alzheimer’s disease (AD) are women, mostly because of their longer life-span and the higher prevalence of AD among older persons. A more-pronounced association between AD pathology and dementia (faster brain atrophy) and more-rapid cognitive decline have been reported in women. The AD prognosis might be affected by, e.g., size of cerebral hemispheres,

Parallel computing is becoming more and more important in modern Finite Element Software. As problems grow larger, computation on a single processor may not be fast enough. To overcome this problem, one can utilize parallel programming using e.g SMP-machines or clusters. Furthermore, when local compute resources are scarce, it can be quite convenient to take advantage of non-local resources for pe
