Changes in mitochondrial DNA copy number (mtDNA-CN) and telomere length have, separately, been proposed as risk factors for various cancer types. However, those results are conflicting. Here, mtDNA-CN and relative telomere length were measured in 3225 middle-aged women included in a large population-based prospective cohort. The baseline mtDNA-CN in patients with prevalent breast cancer was signif

Background: Prospectively and systematically collected real-world data on vedolizumab are scarce. We aimed to assess the long-term clinical effectiveness of vedolizumab in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Methods: This study was a prospective, observational, multicentre study. Overall, 286 patients with active IBD were included (Crohn’s disease, n = 169; ulcerative colitis, n = 117). The primary

Based on a discrete choice experiment with 336 consumers, this study investigated whether the consumer propensity to choose a simplified European Union (EU) vs. non-EU denomination of origin for beef, instead of a specific country-of-origin (COO) denomination, depends upon the amount and type of credence information provided to the individual. The likelihood of choosing the EU/non-EU denomination

The Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL) and Youth Self-Report (YSR) are widely used measures of psychiatric symptoms and lately also adapted to the DSM. The incremental validity of adding the scales to each other has not been studied. We validated the DSM subscales for affective, anxiety, attention deficit/hyperactivity (ADHD), oppositional defiant (ODD), conduct problems (CD), and obsessive-compulsiv

Background: There is a growing interest in the contextual effect of neighborhood linking social capital on different health outcomes, including cancer. Aims: To examine associations between neighborhood linking social capital and incidence and mortality of prostate cancer. Method: This cohort study was based on national registers. Between 2002 and 2015, we included 1,196,563 men aged 50 years and

Traditionally, food safety knowledge has been seen as a factor in improving food safety behaviour. However, the relationship between knowledge and behavior is complex. The aim of the present study was to investigate self-reported data from 408 university students regarding food safety background, knowledge, attitudes, and behaviour using Structural Equation Model (SEM) to examine the influence of

This chapter mainly deals with biochemical aspects on prostate specific antigen (PSA) and its clinical value. To a limited extent, also other tumor markers, which might be of importance in the evaluation of patients with prostate cancer are discussed. In serum, PSA exists in a free form or bound to antichymotrypsin. Interestingly, only 10% of PSA secreted from cancer cells seems to exist in a free

I min avhandling undersöker jag varierande placering av objekt till verb i svenskans historia. Primärt undersöks placering av nominala objekt visavi negerande adverbial, och sekundärt undersöks placering av nominala objekt visavi andra argument (subjekt och objekt) i huvudsatser. Materialet som ligger till grund för avhandlingen är texter från äldre och yngre fornsvenska (1225-1526), och huvudsakl

This paper contributes to previous research on retail safety by extending the concept of safety beyond the retail store. To this end, the aim of the research is to examine the mutual relationship between retail stores and public safety in disadvantaged urban environments. The goal is to demonstrate the potential of physical retail establishments in urban environments for creating resilient and soc
