PURPOSE – Patients with breast cancer in Ethiopia are generally diagnosed with late-stage disease, and there is a high proportion of young female and male patients. The role of genetic predisposition is yet unknown in this setting. To increase the knowledge about hereditary breast cancer in Ethiopia, this study investigated germline pathogenic variants (PVs) in breast cancer–predisposing genes in
Background: The prognostic significance of myocardial infarction with non-obstructive coronary arteries (MINOCA) in older adults remains uncertain, particularly in comparison with revascularized acute coronary syndromes (ACS) and other acute myocardial injury phenotypes. Methods: In the prospective population-based cohort of the Malmö Diet and Cancer Study (n = 30,466), 925 participants who exp
Aim: We aimed to investigate the prevalence of self-reported kinesiophobia seven months after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) and its relationship with self-reported and objectively assessed physical activity. Additionally, to explore the relationship between self-reported kinesiophobia and symptoms of anxiety and depression.Method: Cross-sectional sub-study conducted within the Targeted HypAim: We aimed to investigate the prevalence of self-reported kinesiophobia seven months after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) and its relationship with self-reported and objectively assessed physical activity.

Background: – When decision makers use evidence from a randomized trial to inform population-level decisions, the target population they envision rarely aligns with the population of individuals who enrolled in the trial. Here, we extend inferences from the VALIDATE-SWEDEHEART randomized trial (hereafter, the index trial), which compared the effects of bivalirudin and heparin during percutaneous c
Background: Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) in the posterior fossa, that is, cerebellum and brainstem, often has a poor prognosis. Treatment options are limited. However, primary preventive measures may have changed during the last decades. We aimed to study the hospitalization-based incidence and characteristics of posterior fossa ICH and examine whether these changed during a 13-year period. Meth
Water protection areas (WPAs) are legal instruments that require fixed boundaries that can be clearly defined on a map. Groundwater systems, however, are not fixed. Groundwater capture zones expand, contract, and shift with pumping, while groundwater flow changes with seasons, climate, and land use. In practice, some older protection areas follow roads, property boundaries, or other convenient sur
BACKGROUND: Bone mineral density (BMD) is compromised in patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc) compared to the background population, yet the underlying disease related factors are less known. This study evaluates SSc disease-related features and predictability for BMD along with established risk factors for low BMD in SSc patients compared to controls.METHODS: The study includes 211 SSc patients
The European Green Deal, the Circular Economy Action Plan, and the Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation that becomes generally applicable from 12 August 2026 compress the timeline within which the European packaging value chain must adapt. Two workforce populations need development at the same time. Students approaching graduation require up-skilling, and practicing professionals require re-sk
Background Early recognition of emerging heart failure prior to diagnosis could offer an opportunity for prevention-focused care, but it remains unclear whether healthcare seeking patterns before diagnosis indicate an earlier window for intervention. The objective was to determine if changes in utilization appeared during the 12-week pre-diagnosis period preceding a first diagnosis of heart failur
Sammanfattning Studien utredde orsaken till partnerval inom den egna etniska gruppen. Judiska universitetsstuderande (n=42) jämfördes med icke-judiska svenska universitetsstuderande (n=42) och deltagarna jämfördes på variablerna ingruppsidentitet, likhet, stöd från socialt nätverk, partnerval och kollektivism. Dessutom attraktivitetsskattades personer med och utan davidsstjärna. Bäst prediktor fö
Several of researches shows that youths seek other kinds of participatory channels for political engagements then the representative structure can give them. Citizens who participate in the political process develop an increased knowledge about the society and the more knowledge about the society the larger reason to participate. This thesis was done with the assumption that the experience of part
