Introduction Breathlessness is debilitating and increases in prevalence with age, with people progressively reducing their everyday activities to ‘self-manage’ it. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of breathlessness on function in terms of activities that have been reduced or ceased (‘compromised’) in older men.Methods A cross-sectional postal survey of Swedish 73-year-old man in the VAScula

Published by The Company of Biologists Ltd | Development (2014) 141, 1-9 doi:10.1242/dev.101659 1 ABSTRACT New neurons, originating from the subventricular zone, are continuously integrating into neuronal circuitry in the olfactory bulb (OB). Using a transgenic sensor mouse, we found that adult-born OB interneurons express microRNA-125 (miR-125), whereas the pre- existing developmentally

BACKGROUND: The majority of out-of-hospital cardiac arrests (OHCAs) occur at place residence, which is associated with worse outcomes in unselected prehospital populations. Our aim was to investigate whether location of arrest was associated with outcome in a selected group of initial survivors admitted to intensive care.METHODS: This is a post-hoc analysis of the Targeted Temperature Management a
Vad består materia av? Det är en fundamental fråga som mänskligheten försökt besvara i tusentals år. Vårt svar på den frågan har utvecklats enormt de senaste 200 åren. Atomer, från grekiskans ord för odelbar, bygger upp materian vi ser omkring oss. Det antogs längeatt atomer verkligen var odelbara, men strax innan sekelskiftet år 1900, kom experimentellt bevis från J. J. Thomson, som påvisade att The papers in this thesis all concern the treatment of colors in perturbative QCD, both in the context of hard scattering cross sections and for parton showers. The complexity of the color structure of QCD increases quickly with the number of external partons. One way of tackling this issue is by using an orthogonal, group theory based, type of bases, called multiplet bases. This is the topic of p
Aim: We explored preferences for prognostic test performance characteristics and error tolerance in decisions regarding withdrawal or continuation of life-sustaining therapy (LST) after cardiac arrest in a diverse cohort of medical providers. Methodology: We distributed a survey through professional societies and research networks. We asked demographic characteristics, preferences for prognostic t
Popular Abstract in Swedish Resultatet efter en höftprotesoperation är otvetydigt gott med smärtfrihet och god funktion ofta livet ut hos de flesta. 2012 opererades i Sverige cirka 16000 patienter med höftprotes och siffran stiger. 3-4% av patienterna drabbas av en proteslossning under de första tio åren och behöver opereras om, en så kallad revision. Den gamla protesen avlägsnas då och ersätts meThe clinical success of primary hip replacement is paramount but the need for revisions will continue to increase due to the increasing number of operated individuals. In Sweden, the number of hip revisions in 2012 exceeded 2,300. During implant loosening, some of the bone in the femur is lost, which can make the revision more difficult. One way of handling bone loss has been the impaction techniq
We conducted a cross-sectional pilot study on healthy pre-menopausal women (aged 45-50 years) living in Granada, in the south of Spain (n = 39) and Malmo, in the south of Sweden (n = 38) in order to compare their plasma carotenoid levels and to investigate the relationship between the differences in food consumption. Plasma concentrations of six carotenoids were measured using high performance liq
The modeling of industrial combustion applications today is almost exclusively based on two-equation turbulence models. Despite its known limitations, the most the widely used model is still the standard k-ε model. The objective of this paper is to investigate the performance of two-equation turbulence models applied to a confined swirling flow. Numerical modeling of an axis-symmetric confined sud
This paper describes the development of a fuzzy inference system (FIS) for emulating an analog joystick using an inductive tongue-computer interface. The principle of operation of the interface and the inductive sensors signals are described. The FIS receives sensor signals and output the Cartesian position of the virtual joystick, which can be used to control the mouse pointer in a personal compu
Popular Abstract in Swedish Frontotemporal demens (FTD) är en grupp av demenssjukdomar som främst drabbar hjärnans pannlober och främre tinninglober. Gemensamt för FTD-sjukdomarna är en fortskridande nervcellsförlust och förtvining av framför allt hjärnbarken. Sjukdomen medför personlighetsförändring med beteendestörningar, förändringar i känsloliv och kognitiva svårigheter. En försämring av språkFrontotemporal dementia (FTD) is the clinical term for a heterogeneous group of dementia disorders with symptoms emerging from frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD). FTD encompasses the behavioural variant (bvFTD) and the progressive aphasias: progressive non-fluent aphasia (PNFA) and semantic dementia (SD). Neuropathological classification is based on protein pathology with three major subgrou
The main concern of this paper is the joint utilization of new methods of research and analysis in the study of value. 40 persons, varying from age 20 to 70 and from different professional domains were studies by the use of a three-images technique inspired by Murray´s TAT. The aim was to unveil the implicit dimensions of work related values. Three analytical methods (content analysis, lexical ana
Popular Abstract in Swedish Diabetes är en folksjukdom som kännetecknas av förhöjt blodsocker. Sjukdomens förekomst ökar dramatiskt över hela världen och beskrivs ofta som en pandemi. I huvudsak finns det två olika former av diabetes, typ 1 och typ 2. Typ 1 drabbar oftast barn och ungdomar – de insulinproducerande β-cellerna förstörs av kroppens egna immunförsvar. Vid typ 2 diabetes ser sjukdomsbiDefective insulin secretion and insulin resistance are the two hallmarks of Type 2 Diabetes (T2D). The pathophysiology of the disease is not fully understood but genetic susceptibility for the disease is a new major player in the understanding of the underlying mechanisms. T2D research has in recent years invested tremendous efforts in identifying new risk variants for the disease. It has proven t
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have been implicated in regulating multiple processes during brain development in various species. However, the function of miRNAs in human brain development remains largely unexplored. Here, we provide a comprehensive analysis of miRNA expression of regionalized neural progenitor cells derived from human embryonic stem cells and human foetal brain. We found miR-92b-3p and miR-1
TP53 mutations in the absence of 17p-deletion correlate with rapid disease progression and poor survival in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). Herein, we determined the TP53 mutation frequency in 268 newly diagnosed CLL patients from a population-based material. Overall, we detected TP53 mutations in 3.7% of patients (n = 10), where 7/10 cases showed a concomitant 17p-deletion, confirming the hig
Calibration of network nodes using only time differences of arrival (TDOA) measurements opens up for interesting applications in wireless ad-hoc sensor networks, e.g. finding the positions of cell phones by only ambient sounds or radio. We present two novel approaches for the problem of self-calibration of network nodes using only TDOA when both receivers and transmitters are unsynchronized. We co

Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingen består av tre delar. Den första, Från utbildningsmarknad till of-fentlig utbildning. Svensk flickskola 1874-1962, behandlar dels integrationen av flickornas sekundärutbildning i den offentliga utbildningsorganisationen, dels förstärkningen respektive försvagningen av denna speciellt genuskodade utbild-ning. Sekundärutbildningen har varit könssegregerad och The thesis is divided into three sections. The first, “From an education market to public education. The Swedish girls’ school 1874-1962”, deals with the integration of girls’ secondary education into the public education system, as well as with the strengthening and weakening of this special, gender-coded education. Secondary education was gender segregated and integration involved a process of s
