Background and aim: Telomere length (TL) is a key biomarker of cellular aging, with shorter telomeres associated with age-related diseases. Lifestyle interventions mitigating telomere shortening are essential for preventing such conditions. This study aimed to examine the effects of two weight loss dietary strategies, based on a moderately high-protein (MHP) diet and a low-fat (LF) diet on TL in i

Background: Individualized cancer rehabilitation should be an integral part of cancer care. Contact nurses play a key role in identifying patient needs and coordinating evidence-based interventions to support rehabilitation. However, cancer rehabilitation remains marginal in current practice, as contact nurses face challenges due to the lack of systematic processes for assessment, intervention, an

AimsAdipose tissue distribution, metabolism, and expansion capacity exhibit notable sex- and depot-specific differences. Herein, we monitored adipocyte traits related to insulin responsiveness and glucose transport during adipose expansion in visceral and subcutaneous fat from male and female mice.Material and methodsAdipocytes were isolated from perigonadal and inguinal adipose tissue of chow-fed

Background: Patients with relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) treated with the high-efficacy drugs natalizumab (NTZ) or rituximab (RTX) generally show no evidence of disease activity. Currently, there is no head-to-head comparison between NTZ and RTX of neurodegenerative and neuroinflammatory biomarkers in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). Objectives: To compare CSF biomarkers in a stable RRMS

Abstract in DanishLars-Johan Ekerots bog om svensk som andetsprog foreligger nu i dansk oversættelse og med et noteapparat henvendt til dansksprogede læsere.Bogen har siden udgivelsen i 1995 været et standardværk på læreruddannelser og andre uddannelser i svensk i Sverige og Finland samt på kurser i svensk som fremmedsprog.Bogen har også længe været flittigt brugt af studerende og kommende undervi

BackgroundBloodstream infections (BSI) are a public health concern, and infections caused by resistant bacteria further increase the overall BSI burden on healthcare.AimTo provide a population-based estimate of BSI incidence and relate this to the forthcoming demographic ageing western population change.MethodsWe retrieved positive blood cultures taken from patients in the Skåne region, southern S

Background: Increasing carbon stock in standing forests is one of the proposed ways to mitigate climate change. However, in production forests, this typically would lead to reduced harvesting possibilities and thus reduced financial gain for the forest owners. The size of this reduction should depend on the chosen target level of the carbon stock as well as the required speed of accumulation. Furt

Diabetic wounds are problematic to heal owing to microbial infections as well as decreased proliferation and high concentrations of reactive oxygen species. In this study, a double-layered nanofibrous mat containing grape seed extract (GSE) and silver sulfadiazine (SSD) was fabricated. A synthetic biodegradable polymer, e.g., polycaprolactone (PCL), and a natural material (i.e., collagen) were emp

BACKGROUND: Prolonged opioid use (more than 90 days) after injury puts the patient at risk for adverse effects. We investigated the patterns of opioid prescription after distal radius fracture and the effect of pre- and post-fracture factors on the risk for prolonged use.METHODS: This register-based cohort study uses routinely collected health care data, including purchases of prescription opioids

Peatlands are unique ecosystems that contain massive amounts of carbon. These ecosystems are incredibly vulnerable to human disturbance and climate change. This may cause the peatland carbon sink to shift to a carbon source. A change in the carbon storage of peatlands may result in surface deformation. This research uses the interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) technique to measure the

Glaciers are one of the main sources of freshwater in cold regions. The glacier melting process can significantly impact the glacier mass balance (GMB) and contribute a large amount of runoff in cold regions. This study applied the recently developed semi-distributed glacio-hydrological conceptual model (FLEXG) to understand the glacier melting process and the effect of topography on GMB in the To

Evidence of air pollution exposure, namely, ambient particulate matter (PM), during pregnancy and an increased risk of autism in children is growing; however, the unique PM sources that contribute to this association are currently unknown. The aim of the present study was to investigate local, source-specific ambient PM exposure during pregnancy and its associations with childhood autism, specific

The 1952 General Plan for Stockholm is often seen as Sweden’s most important postwar planning document, sketching the outlines of the social-democratic urban region. In the words of city planning director Sven Markelius, it showcased ”the possibilities for building a townscape, or a milieu, with all its components that satisfy the demands we have on urban life today”. This plan has since acquired
