Unexpected sensitization routes and general frequency of contact allergies in an elderly stented Swedish population

Contact allergy to stent material has been proposed to be a risk factor for restenosis, after percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) and stenting. Information on the general frequency of contact allergy in the elderly population is scarce and knowledge of possible sensitization routes is important to investigate.

Prediction of fat-free body mass from bioelectrical impedance among 9-to 11-year-old Swedish children

Aim: Predictive equations for estimating body composition from bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) among Scandinavian children are lacking. In the present study, equations for estimation of fat-free body mass (FFM) and lean tissue mass (LTM) were developed and cross-validated from BIA using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) as the reference measurement of body composition. Methods: The stu
