Forest Productivity Decreases in Response to Recent Changes in Vegetation Structure and Climate in the Latitudinal Extremes of the European Continent

Aim: Climate change is driving increasingly frequent and intense extreme climatic events, pushing many forests worldwide beyond their physiological thresholds. Despite the major role played by forests in the global carbon cycle, climate change threatens the future potential for carbon sequestration in forests. Hence, studies of recent changes in stand productivity and the underlying drivers over l

Risk of celiac disease autoimmunity is modified by interactions between CD247 and environmental exposures

Season of birth, viral infections, HLA haplogenotypes and non-HLA variants are implicated in the development of celiac disease and celiac disease autoimmunity, suggesting a combined role of genes and environmental exposures. The aim of the study was to further decipher the biological pathways conveying the season of birth effect in celiac disease autoimmunity to gain novel insights into the early

Can the use of a next generation partograph based on WHO’s latest intrapartum care recommendations improve neonatal outcomes? (PICRINO) Study protocol for a stepped-wedge cluster randomized trial

Background Monitoring labor and childbirth, early recognition, and treatment of complications are critical for preventing adverse birth outcomes. However excessive use of interventions during labor has not been demonstrated to enhance subsequent birth outcomes and may, in fact, pose a risk of harm. The World Health Organization has recently synthesized research from the last decade concerning labo

Submission to the United Nations to identify the terms of reference and modalities for the establishment and functioning of the Independent International Scientific Panel on AI and Global Dialogue on AI Governance

The United Nations (UN) put out a questionnaire and request for public comment on a proposal to form an Independent International Scientific Panel on ArtificialIntelligence (AI), as well as a Global Dialogue on AI in the context of the Global Digital Compact. The questionnaire was sent out in late 2024, and the following brief report forms the response submitted by the AI Policy Lab at Umeå Univer

Serum and nasal lavage fluid eosinophil-derived neurotoxin levels and their determinants in adults

Background: Eosinophil-derived neurotoxin (EDN), an eosinophil granule protein, is a candidate biomarker in asthma to reflect eosinophilic activation. Objective: We sought to characterize the distribution of serum and nasal lavage fluid (NLF) EDN levels in different adult population subgroups and assess the determinants of high EDN levels. Methods: Serum and NLF samples were collected from a popul

Internet-based vestibular rehabilitation versus standard care after acute onset vertigo : a study protocol for a randomized controlled trial

Background: Dizziness and vertigo affect around 15% of adults annually and represent common reasons for contacting health services, accounting for around 3% of all emergency department visits worldwide. Vertigo is also associated with excessive use of diagnostic imaging and emergency care and decreased productivity, primarily because of work absenteeism. Vestibular rehabilitation is an evidence-ba

Moderate-to-vigorous group aerobic exercise versus group leisure activities for mild-to-moderate depression in adolescents : study protocol for a multicentre randomised controlled trial

INTRODUCTION: Depression is common, increasing among adolescents and carries risk of disability, lower educational achievements, cardiovascular disease, substance abuse, self-harm and suicide. The effects of evidence-based treatments with medication or psychotherapy are modest. Aerobic exercise is a promising intervention for adolescents with depression, but available studies are hampered by metho

The association between plasma metabolites and future risk of all-cause mortality

Background: Metabolite profiles provide snapshots of the overall effect of numerous exposures accumulated over life courses, which may lead to health outcomes in the future. Objective: We hypothesized that the risk of all-cause mortality is linked to alterations in metabolism earlier in life, which are reflected in plasma metabolite profiles. We aimed to identify plasma metabolites associated with

Sociodemographic Disparities and Parity in Relation to Urinary Incontinence : A Nationwide Primary Healthcare Cohort Study (1997–2018)

Objectives: Urinary incontinence (UI) is a very common condition in the primary healthcare settings. Few studies have investigated whether sociodemographic factors are related to UI. This nationwide study aimed to investigate whether there is a relationship between sociodemographic factors and UI in women. Methods: A nationwide open cohort study included 2,044,065 women aged 15–50 years. Several n
