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

The field of hybrid human-artificial intelligence (HHAI), although primarily driven by developments in AI, also requires fundamentally new approaches and solutions. Multidisciplinary in nature, it calls for collaboration across various research domains, such as AI, HCI, the cognitive and social sciences, philosophy and ethics, and complex systems, to name but a few. This book presents the proceedi

Aims The European Unified Registries On Heart Care Evaluation and Randomized Trials (EuroHeart) aims to improve the quality of care and clinical outcomes for patients with cardiovascular disease. The collaboration of acute coronary syndrome/percutaneous coronary intervention (ACS/PCI) registries is operational in seven vanguard European Society of Cardiology member countries. Methods and Adults ad

The transition of heavy machinery systems in agriculture is becoming increasingly urgent due to evolving regulations, market volatility in fossil fuels, and the imperative to achieve decarbonization objectives in the sector. Agricultural machinery has recently experienced an increase in automation, resulting in a higher implementation of electric actuators and systems in agricultural machinery. Th

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the relationship between the fraction of fetal haemoglobin (HbF(%)) and oxygen requirement as determined by the fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2) and alveolar-arterial gradient (A-a gradient). Increased alveolar exposure to oxygen may explain the association between decreased HbF(%) and the development of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD).DESIGN: Longitudinal, retrospecti

Multi-talker noise impedes children's speech processing and may affect children listening to their second language more than children listening to their first language. Evidence suggests that multi-talker noise also may impede children's memory retention and learning. A total of 80 culturally and linguistically diverse children aged 7 to 9 years listened to narratives in two listening conditions:

The chemical and biological conversion of biomass-derived lignin is a promising pathway for producing valuable low molecular weight aromatic chemicals, such as vanillin or guaiacol, known as lignin monomers (LMs). Various methods employing chromatography and electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry (ESI–MS) have been developed for LM analysis, but the impact of LM chemical properties on analytica

Objective: To study associations of clinical characteristics and treatment choice with functional outcome, mortality, and time to death in a national sample of aneurysmal subarachnoidal hemorrhage patients. Methods: Data were extracted from a prospective nationwide multicenter study performed in September 2014 to March 2018. Glasgow Outcome Scale Extended (GOSE) grade, 1-year mortality, and surviv

Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) is a common but frequently unrecognized complication of obesity and type 2 diabetes. The association between these conditions is multifaceted and involves complex interactions between metabolic, inflammatory, and genetic factors. Here we assess the underlying structural and molecular processes focusing on the immunological phase of MASH in th

Hållbarhet och hållbar mobilitet har blivit viktiga mål i national politik och policy. Cykling har dock inte kunnat dra nytta av detta. Om man betraktar cyklingens betydelse under de senaste decennierna, och dess förväntade betydelse i framtiden, finns emellertid få anledningar till optimism, åtminstone inte på nationell och övergripande nivå; cykeln befinner sig fortfarande i skuggan av bilen. DeSustainability and sustainable mobility have become important political goals and have left their mark as important discourses in national policies and programs. Against expectations, cycling has barely benefited from this. Looking back over the shoulder at the significance of cycling over the last few decades and looking forward to suggested implications in the future give no reason for joy, at l
