Background and aim. In rural areas, economic and demographic shifts often leave buildings vacant due to functional and locational obsolescence. However, these buildings hold significant value in terms of embodied energy, natural resources, economic capital, and cultural heritage. The real estate sector urgently needs innovative space use strategies and business models to tackle rising vacancy rate

Background & aims: We have previously reported that the serum levels of gut-derived tryptophan metabolite indole-3-propionic acid (IPA) are lower in individuals with liver fibrosis. Now, we explored the transcriptome and DNA methylome associated with serum IPA levels in human liver from obese individuals together with IPA effects on shifting the hepatic stellate cell (HSC) phenotype to inactiv

Background: Despite recent advances in neuroimaging and neurocritical care, severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) is still a major cause of severe disability and mortality, with increasing incidence worldwide. Antisecretory factor (AF), commercially available as Salovum®, has been shown to lower intracranial pressure (ICP) in experimental models of, e.g., TBI and herpes encephalitis. The aim of this

The spatial organisation of shopping and retail has been transformed significantly since the 1980s, commonly being conceptualised as ‘retail decentralisation.’ This shift involves the displacement of retail from town centres to out-of-town establishments and, more recently, to digital platforms, creating a noticeable vacuum. Consequently, the topic of the ‘death of town centres’ has become a signi

Aims: To examine how educational attainment impacts clinical presentation and pharmacological treatment at type 2 diabetes (T2D) diagnosis. Methods: Cross-sectional analysis of 10,020 individuals with recently diagnosed T2D enrolled in the Danish prospective DD2 cohort. Sex- and age-adjusted prevalence ratios (aPRs) for detailed clinical characteristics and pharmacotherapy were computed. Results:

IntroductionUse of long-term oxygen therapy (LTOT) for more than 15 h per day does not reduce mortality or hospitalizations, but may increase the risk of adverse events. We evaluated the relationship between daily oxygen use duration and adverse events, symptoms, and health status in patients on LTOT.MethodsThis was a cross-sectional survey study of a random sample (N = 650) of adults with ongoing

OBJECTIVE: To qualitatively explore the perceptions of Para athletes, coaches and stakeholders of the implementation, use and effects of the health promotion intervention 'Safe and Healthy Para sport' (SHAPE). A secondary aim was to explore participants' perceptions of how safety and health in Para sport could be further developed.METHODS: As part of a process evaluation, this qualitative, descrip

In septic shock, administration of large fluid volumes is associated with poor outcomes. Recent evidence shows that non-resuscitation fluids are the major modifiable source of fluids for patients with septic shock in intensive care units (ICUs). This clinical trial is designed to test the hypothesis that restrictive administration of non-resuscitation fluids improves outcomes compared to usual car

Background and purpose: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory disorder characterized by progressively destructive polyarthritis. Key autoimmune features include the presence of autoantibodies. The purpose of this review is to discuss the diagnostic and prognostic properties of rheumatoid factor (RF) and anti-citrullinated protein/peptide antibodies (ACPA), based on current use in Swe

This article summarizes the current understanding of the heterogeneity of type 1 diabetes from a June 2024 international Expert Forum organized by the editors of Diabetes, Diabetes Care, and Diabetologia. The Forum reviewed key factors contributing to the development and progression of type 1 diabetes and outlined specific, high-priority research questions. Knowledge gaps were identified, and, not

Home heating transitions influence sociocultural practices and bring about structural changes in daily life. To uncover the power dynamics underpinning these transformations, this paper applies a visionary framework for feminist energy systems designed to challenge hegemonic and unsustainable energy cultures in pursuit of a more just and equitable future. Drawing on the framework's political, econ

Acinetobacter baumannii (A. baumannii) is an opportunistic, Gram-negative human pathogen, which is predominantly found in hospital patients. Its antimicrobial resistance is escalating, leading to less efficient treatments, and an increasing interest in identifying new therapeutic drugs. Metals as antimicrobials are vital in healthcare and agriculture, and copper-containing surfaces are known to re

Background: Patients in palliative care are often treated with antithrombotics, even in the late stages of disease. Clear guidelines regarding deprescribing are lacking. Objective: The aims of this study were to investigate bleeding as a side effect of antithrombotic treatments the last year in life and map the timing of deprescribing. Methods: A retrospective cohort study was performed. All medic
