Access to outdoor leisure activities is central to supporting active and healthy ageing. To address the lack of research on services supporting continued engagement, this study examines how public, voluntary and private sectors provide outdoor recreation services for older adults. This study uses a qualitative research design to draw on interviews, a workshop, and field observations conducted in a

Objectives: This study aimed to assess the relationship between dietary intake and disease outcomes in patients with radiographic axial spondyloarthritis (r-axSpA), focusing on inflammation and disease activity, while also evaluating other health outcomes, and to compare dietary intake between patients and controls. Method: In a cross-sectional analysis, we studied 295 patients with r-axSpA (modif

De svenska specialistpsykiatrin arbetar just nu för att gå från ett traditionellt biomedicinskt synsätt till ett mer återhämtningsinriktat perspektiv. Återhämtningsinriktade insatser handlar om att ge stöd som hjälper personer att hitta mening i sina liv och i sina sammanhang, oavsett vilka svårigheter de har. Det innebär ett helhetsperspektiv där målet är personlig återhämtning genom egenmakt och

AIM: We aimed to investigate if the incidence of type 1 diabetes increased in children during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic and whether SARS-CoV-2 antibodies were more frequently present at diagnosis compared with healthy individuals. We also examined whether clinical characteristics and coexisting autoimmunity differed between SARS-CoV-2 antibody positive and negative individuals.METHODS: This retrospe

This study aimed to explore how PEth and other commonly used alcohol biomarkers (CDT, AST, ALT, and GGT) respond to regular consumption of what has been generally considered to correspond to low to moderate amounts of alcohol over a 2-week period. A total of 21 voluntary participants (aged 31–69 years) took part in a 2-week drinking study. Group 1 (n = 11) consumed one glass of wine daily (16 g of

A recent workshop brought together global leaders in diabetes to assess existing approaches to disease heterogeneity and to identify research gaps, with a goal of achieving precision diabetology for all patients globally.

Background/Aim: Anterior resection is the gold standard surgery for high and middle rectal tumors. In cases where anterior resection is not feasible, the surgeon resorts to a non-restorative approach such as Hartmann’s procedure or abdominoperineal resection. It is not well studied how Hartmann’s procedure impacts quality of life. This cross-sectional cohort study compares the long-term quality of

BACKGROUND: Central sensitization has been suggested as an explanation of the wide range of gastrointestinal and extraintestinal symptoms commonly seen in irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). In this study, the presence and level of central sensitization, and its association to gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms were explored in IBS in comparison with control groups.METHODS: We investigated patients with I

Malaria caused by Plasmodium falciparum leads to the destruction of red blood cells (RBCs). A better understanding of how naturally immune individuals control infections should be valuable for future vaccine studies. Antibodies against RBCs and RBC surface antigens were measured together with different inflammatory markers in healthy adults living in a malaria endemic area of Uganda and compared t
