Background: The application of a bioresorbable calcium sulfate/hydroxyapatite (CaS/HA) ceramic at the interface of fenestrated screws and osteoporotic bone significantly enhances the immediate mechanical anchorage compared with non-augmented controls. However, the anchoring effectiveness of different screw augmentation techniques in spines with varying vertebral bone mineral density (BMD) remains

Efficient management of on-demand delivery systems is essential for modern urban logistics, especially in densely populated cities with complex spatial layouts. This study introduces a novel, computer-supported cooperative framework that utilizes Infomap-based hierarchical community detection to analyze spatial multilevel clustering patterns. The experiment was conducted to large scale on-demand d

Antibody radionuclide conjugates are an emerging modality for targeted imaging and potent therapy of disseminated disease. Coupling of radionuclides to monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) is typically achieved by applying non-site-specific labelling techniques. With the ambition of reducing variability, increasing labelling efficacy and stability, several site-specific conjugation strategies have been de

This article discusses the role of the protein corona in delivery systems with tagged nanoparticles and how knowledge of the protein corona can help in optimizing delivery. The basic question is whether and how the binding of proteins and other biomolecules at the nanoparticle surface interfere with the interaction between a tag and its receptor. This is an interesting problem in many respects, bu

The Swedish reimbursement system operates a system where prices are set based on the expected value to the consumer. This value can be measured using willingness to pay (WTP).

The paper is based on a study of hunting tourism enterprising in Sweden. The study examines how hunting tourism businesses in Sweden navigate in a complex social, economic and moral environment. The aim of the present paper is to identify how tensions between a market- oriented value sphere and a value sphere based on friendship- and community reciprocity are played out in hunting tourism entrepre

We currently use Convection-Enhanced Delivery (CED) of the platinum-based drug, carboplatin as a novel treatment strategy for high grade glioblastoma in adults and children. Although initial results show promise, carboplatin is not specifically toxic to tumour cells and has been associated with neurotoxicity at high infused concentrations in pre-clinical studies. Our treatment strategy requires in

The purpose of the study is to further understand how the ‘Responsibility Discourse’ is constructed through the articulation of the Public and Private distinction in presently operated Public Private Development Partnerships (PPDP). By understanding the discourse in terms of accountability, role division and responsibility, the ambition is to map how the construction is made through the public and

The International Society for Clinical Densitometry (ISCD) has published position statements on topics relating to the use and interpretation of measurements of bone mineral density (BMD). The most recent appeared in the Journal of Clinical Densitometry (1) and was republished in the Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism and in Osteoporosis International (2,3). The topics included the indication
