Purpose: The Paleolithic Diet Fraction (PDF) estimates the proportion of absolute dietary intake derived from food groups included in the Paleolithic diet. In the Malmö Diet and Cancer Study (MDCS), higher PDF and lower systemic low-grade chronic inflammation (SLGCI) have been associated with lower cardiometabolic morbidity and mortality. We examined associations between PDF and SLGCI in the MDCS.

This thesis deals with the expression, localization and regulation of neuropeptide Y (NPY) in the pancreatic islets of Langerhans under normal and experimental conditions. NPY is widely distributed in the mammalian nervous system and belongs to a family of closely related petides also comprising peptide YY (PYY) and pancreatic polypeptide (PP). NPY exerts a variety of biological effects, such as s

Popular Abstract in English Psychotropic pharmaceuticals include various groups of chemicals that have been designed to affect neurochemistry in human consumers resulting in changes in cognition, mood, and/or behavior; many target specific receptors and subsequently alter neurotransmitter levels in the central nervous system. The use of pharmaceuticals by consumers results in the release of these Psychotropic pharmaceuticals have been shown to exert a variety of sublethal effects on non-target organisms, even at low concentrations found in the environment (ng/L to µg/L); hence, the aim of my research has been to determine the individual-level effects of psychotropic pharmaceuticals (the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors sertraline and fluoxetine, and the β-blocker propranolol) on beh

Diabetes mellitus is a group of diseases characterized by chronic hyperglycemia. Women who develops hyperglycemia for the first time during pregnancy receive the diagnosis gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). Presently, there is no consensus about the diagnostic criteria for GDM. A majority of these women subsequently develop postpartum overt diabetes making it important to identify these patients

Too Many Doing Too Little On Contemporary European Film Production Cultures In a majority of Western European countries, the two concurrent, post-World War II tendencies of increasing economic difficulties for the national film industries and the developing recognition of film as a significant contemporary art form were imperative for the introduction of film support. With Hollywood dominating sc

Entreprenadprojekt präglas av komplexitet där ändringar och oförutsedda händelser, så kallade störningar, är vanligt förekommande. Enligt dagens standardavtal, AB 04, hanteras dessa utifrån separata regelverk, vilket ställer stränga processuella krav på entreprenören. Om entreprenören vill erhålla ersättning för uppkomna störningar, krävs att ett individualiserat orsakssamband mellan varje enskildConstruction projects are characterized by complexity, where variations and unforeseen events, so-called disruptions, are a common occurrence. Under the current standard form contract, AB 04, these are managed through separate regulatory frameworks, imposing strict procedural requirements on the con-tractor. If the contractor wishes to obtain compensation for resulting disruptions, it must prove a

Background and aimPregnancy in women with congenital heart disease (CHD) increases but complications may occur. To improve health care more research is needed. This thesis aims to study pregnancy complications, healthrelated quality of life in relation to pregnancy and in vitro fertilization complications in women with CHD. MethodsPapers I–II studied local data and Papers III–IV national data. Pap

n this paper I argue that strategic communication practitioners are set to form a monopoly over specific skills and competences, which separate them from other groups in order to gain professional status. This process has developed gradually; requirements for communication workers were not that high put a couple of decades ago. But in relation to demands on a societal level, strategic communicatio

Objective: Worse women's outcomes after elective standard endovascular aneurysm repair have been widely reported. Similar data have surfaced from cohorts undergoing fenestrated and branched repair; however, studies reporting from a sex perspective are rare and mostly limited to single centre designs. This study aimed to examine survival following nationwide complex endovascular repair according to

Background and Aims: Colon capsule endoscopy (CCE) provides a non-invasive alternative to traditional colonoscopy. This study evaluated the feasibility, safety, diagnostic yield (DY), and patient satisfaction of the OMOM CC100 CCE system, with special focus on fully remote (n = 30) and partially remote (n = 89) administration across four centres to advance decentralised models. Methods: This prosp
