Cyclic and congenital neutropenia are caused by mutations in the human neutrophil elastase (HNE) gene (ELA2), leading to an immunodeficiency characterized by decreased or oscillating levels of neutrophils in the blood. The HNE mutations presumably cause loss of enzyme activity, consequently leading to compromised immune system function. To understand the structural basis for the disease, we implem

Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate our experience with patients affected by ovarian carcinosarcoma. Patients and Methods: During a 16-year period, data on 13 patients with ovarian carcinosarcoma were collected. They were obtained from hospital charts and follow-up visits. Survival curves were estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method and compared using the log-rank test. All tests were t

Background and Objectives: Multiple processes have been identified as potential contributors to chronic pain, with increasing evidence illustrating an association with aberrant levels of neuroimmune mediators. The primary objectives of the present study were to examine central nervous system cytokines, chemokines, and growth factors present in a chronic pain population and to explore patterns of t

Den tekniska utvecklingen har ändrat hur människor kommunicerar med och om varandra. Den har också fört med sig nya former av övergrepp, däribland så kallade bildbaserade sexuella övergrepp. Begreppet bildbaserade sexuella övergrepp innefattar alla former av framställande och/eller spridande av privata, sexuella bilder utan samtycke från den avbildade. Exempel på sådana övergrepp är ”hämndporr”, sTechnological developments have changed the way people communicate with and about each other. It has also brought with it new forms of abuse, including so-called image-based sexual abuse. Image-based sexual abuse includes all forms of creation and / or distribution of private, sexual images without the consent of the person depicted. Examples of such abuse is “revenge porn”, stealth photography, u

AIMS: To report on treatment related toxicity and mortality in patients with pseudomyxoma peritonei (PMP) treated by cytoreduction in combination with intraoperative hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) and to identify prognostic factors.METHODS: A review was performed of 103 procedures of cytoreduction and intraoperative HIPEC for PMP between 1996 and 2004. Toxicity was graded accord

BACKGROUND: Unemployment is high not only among people with mental illness, but also among young adults in general. The combination of having a severe mental illness and being young entails a particularly problematic situation for young people with psychosis. This study aimed to understand how this group envision their future possibilities for entering the labour market or engaging in other produc

Aim: To assess experience of care, well-being of parents and children's development in a cohort of extremely premature infants born <24 weeks of gestation in Sweden from 2007 to 2018. Methods: A survey based on multiple questionnaires answered by 124/349 (35.5%) parents. Results: The median age of parents and children was 43 and 9 years, respectively; 74.2% were mothers. Parents expressed high hea

The broad goal of this thesis is to develop a deeper mathematical understanding of the processes at work in the neuronal network of a brain by rigorously examining very fundamental elements of the processes involved. Paper I considers the flow of discrete signals on a graph and Paper II the complexity arising from the interplay of simple units. The concrete probabilistic investigations of such mod

Background: Voluntary self-exclusion from gambling is a common but underdeveloped harm reduction tool in the management of gambling problems or gambling disorders. Large-scale, multi-operator, and operator-independent self-exclusion services are needed. A recent nationwide multi-operator self-exclusion service in Sweden (Spelpaus), involving both land- and web-based gambling sites, is promising, b

Survey data (FRA 2014) suggest that the lifetime rates of intimate partner violence against women (IPVAW) in the Nordic countries are among the highest in the EU, even though these countries are positioned as among the most gender equal in the world. This co-existence of high levels of gender equality and of high IPVAW rates, which has been termed the Nordic Paradox, has hitherto not been adequate

Popular Abstract in English The gene encoding a β-glucosidase originating from the extreme thermophile Thermotoga neopolitana has been cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli. The aim was to produce a thermostable enzyme that could be used to remove sugar residues from glucosylated natural products classified as flavonoids by applying a method combining extraction in hot pressurized water with enThe gene encoding a β-glucosidase originating from the extreme thermophile Thermotoga neopolitana has been cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli. The aim was to produce a thermostable enzyme that could be used to remove sugar residues from glucosylated natural products classified as flavonoids by applying a method combining extraction in hot pressurized water with enzymatic hydrolysis. The β-g

What does it mean to be close to nature? This question is examined in this video work based on 9 short clips. The first clip of a woody landscape was recorded outside of Taivalkoski, Koillismaa, Finland using an Intenso Viddy, a cheap Video Messenger.The clip, 30 seconds in duration, of the landscape was transferred from the Viddy to a laptop. When played on the laptop the screen was filmed with t

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effect of group-based diabetes dialogue meetings (DDMs) on diabetes distress, perceived competence and glycaemic control.METHODS: Patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D) were invited to DDMs with peers and healthcare professionals. The impact of participation was evaluated by change in diabetes distress measured by Problem Areas in Diabetes (PAID), diabetes competence measur

In Sweden, climate projections indicate longer growing seasons with more frequent extreme weather events, such as droughts and heavy rainfall, posing significant challenges to existing crop systems. Simultaneously, the sector is under growing pressure to reduce its environmental footprint, especially in response to agricultural nutrients runoff contributing to the eutrophication of the Baltic Sea.

As supply uncertainties and increased lead times were more prominent than ever during the covid-19 pandemic, many companies experienced disrupted supply chains and realized the weaknesses in their inventory management and supply chain planning. Many organizations, including the case company in this thesis, Beijer Ref, experienced the impact of the bullwhip effect on their operations. The bullwhip
