Increased QT dispersion and loss of sinus rhythm were both associated with sudden cardiac death in patients with transposition of the great arteries after Mustard and Senning operations at the early and late postoperative periods. A combination of increased QT dispersion with loss of sinus rhythm increases the positive predictive value for sudden cardiac death in patients with transposition of the
Objective: Measurement of fetal scalp blood lactate is a supplementary tool to cardiotocography in the case of a non-reassuring tracing. Several hand-held lactate meters have been launched, all with differentials in absolute values. Therefore, the reference intervals must be calculated for each device. The internationally accepted reference interval is based on measurement with Lactate ProTM with
BACKGROUND/AIM: High morbidity and mortality rates, chronic course of disease and numerous clinical complications, make diabetes mellitus (DM) type 2 bear significant financial burden for healthcare system of Serbia. The aim of this study was to compare true disease-related expenses measured in the random sample of patients originating from the Central Serbia in 2007 and national estimate of total
An energy system that relies on fossil fuel is not sustainable. Emissions, such as carbon dioxide, nitric oxide and corpuscles, affect the climate and pollute the air. Furthermore, the supply of oil, coal and natural gas is located a few places worldwide, which can give provide incentive to geopolitical conflicts for access to these areas. This is not a local issue for Tjörn, nor even a national i
Popular Abstract in Swedish I avhandlingen beskrivs och analyseras den svenska dagspressens hantering av doping och dopingöverträdelser inom internationell elitidrott. Artiklarna studeras med hjälp av följande tre frågeställningar: (1) Vad utmärker medieinnehållet om sport och doping? (2) Vilken bild av den sociala ordningen skymtar fram i detta mediematerial? (3) Vad berättar medieskandaler kringThe study analyses how the Swedish press dealt with doping and transgressions of the doping rules within international professional sports between 1996 and 2004. Three main research questions have been used in the research process: (1) What characterizes these media texts about sports and doping? (2) How is the social order pictured in the media texts? (3) What do media scandals about sport stars
Popular Abstract in Swedish Den vanligaste lokalisationen för bråck eller aneurysm på stora kroppspulsåderns (AAA) är i buken nedanför njurpulsådrorna. Mellan 3-6% av befolkningen över 65 års har detta och det är vanligare hos män jämfört med kvinnor (3:1). Majoriteten av bråcken är asymptomatiska och upptäcks som ett bifynd isamband med undersökning för mag eller ryggbesvär. Ca ¼ av bråcken debutAIM: The aim was to evaluate the results of endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) in terms of intra-AAA pressure and clinical outcomes. METHODS AND RESULTS: 0.014-inch guide-wire-mounted tip-pressure sensors were used for direct intra-aneurysm sac pressure measurement (DISP) through translumbar puncture of the AAA. Mean Pressure Index was calculated (MPI) as the p
INTRODUCTION: Fetal cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging is used clinically and for research, but has been previously limited due to lack of direct gating methods. A CMR-compatible Doppler ultrasound (DUS) gating device has resolved this. However, the DUS-gating method is not validated against the current reference method for fetal phase-contrast blood flow measurements, metric optimize
Objective: The aim was to compare rapid antigen detection test (RADT) and throat culture for group A streptococci (GAS) among patients recently treated with penicillin V for GAS pharyngotonsillitis. Design and setting: The study was a secondary analysis within a randomized controlled trial comparing 5 versus 10 days of penicillin V for GAS pharyngotonsillitis. Patients were recruited at 17 primary
Title: CONFIGURING THE CORPORATE ACCELERATOR FOR SYNERGIES: A Multiple Case Study on the Relation Between Configurations of Corporate Accelerators and Potential for Synergies with Startup Support Institutions Date of the seminar: 27 May, 2019 Course: ENTN39 Master’s Programme in Entrepreneurship and Innovation, Internship and Degree Project (Master’s thesis 15 ECTS) Authors: Jacob Szemberg and G
Organ segmentation on magnetic resonance (MR) images for dose planning on cancer patients is a time consuming process that can be automatized by using convolutional neural networks (CNNs). MR images vary greatly in characteristics across acquisition sites, which affects CNN segmentation performance. In this master thesis, augmentation methods were tested and implemented to increase the robustness
Abstract Over the past decade, mass spectrometry has had an essential role in improvement of proteomics techniques. New instrument and analytical protocol developments have made mass spectrometry one of the most widely used analytical methods in quantitative proteomics. Today one of the commonly used protocols in proteomics is digestion of proteins to peptides and analysis of the peptides with li
Sex trafficking has from six hundred thousand to four million victims each year (McCabe and Manian, 2010: 41-43). Because of different legal barriers, sex trafficking is closely associated with organized crime; crime victims often do not search for support from legal systems, law enforcement authorities, or other officials (ibid.) This thesis was to understand how law affects the ability of preven
8 EXTERNALISM AND THE CONTENT OF MORAL MOTIVATION Caj Strandberg Department of Philosophy, Lund University and Gothenburg University Caj.Strandberg@fil.lu.se ABSTRACT: Michael Smith raises in his fetishist argument an important question: what is the content of the motivational states that account for moral motivation? Although the argument has been widely discussed, this question has not received

Secondary lymphedema (LE) following breast cancer-related surgery is a life-long complication, which currently has no cure. LE induces significant regional adipose tissue deposition, requiring liposuction as a treatment. Here, we aimed to elucidate the transcriptional, metabolomic, and lipidomic signature of the adipose tissue developed due to the surgery-induced LE in short- and long-term LE pati
The accumulation of senescent cells drives inflammaging and increases morbidity of chronic inflammatory lung diseases. Immune responses are built upon dynamic changes in cell metabolism that supply energy and substrates for cell proliferation, differentiation, and activation. Metabolic changes imposed by environmental stress and inflammation on immune cells and tissue microenvironment are thus chi
Aim: The selective use of defunctioning stomas in anterior resection for rectal cancer hinges on accurately predicting anastomotic leakage. The aim of this study was to develop a prediction model for use in a prospective randomized clinical trial. Method: Colorectal Cancer Database (CRCBaSe) Sweden was used to identify patients who underwent low anterior resection for rectal cancer 2007–2021. Elig
