INTRODUCTION: While the characteristics and medical management of patients treated with long-term oxygen therapy (LTOT) have transformed during the last decades, the evidence base for LTOT itself remains largely unchanged. This study aimed to compare the risk of hospitalization and death among hypoxemic patients discontinuing LTOT, with that of controls continuing therapy.METHODS: This was a retro
Background: Around 95% of all websites selling medicines globally are illegal and contribute to the spread of substandard and falsified medicines. Hence, it is important to identify legal pharmacies when accessing medicines online. During 2022-2024, 250 million prescriptions were legally dispensed in Sweden, and 69% were prescribed in primary care. Pharmacists and general practitioners are key hea

Popular Abstract in Swedish Svår alfa-1antitrypsinbrist (AAT-brist), s.k. PiZZ, är ett ärftligt tillstånd som har en hög förekomst i Sverige, cirka 1/1600. Bristen innebär ökad risk för utveckling av kroniskt obstruktiv lungsjukdom (KOL), speciellt hos rökare. Leversjukdom är också relativt vanlig och kan förekomma såväl i barndomen som i hög ålder. Levercirros (skrumplever) och levercancer är öveSevere alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency (AATD) is a genetic disorder associated with increases risk of developing of chronic obstructive lung disease and liver disease. The Swedish National Registry for individuals with severe AATD was started 1991.Up to October 2008, a total of 1349 individuals were included in the registry. The aims of the studies in this thesis which bases on AATD registry are to
Popular Abstract in Swedish Sköldkörtelhormoner och bröstcancer Insjuknandet i sköldkörtelsjukdomar är liksom bröstcancer vanligast hos kvinnor efter klimakteriet och ett eventuellt samband har diskuterats i över ett sekel. Experimentella studier har visat att sköldkörtelhormoner påverkar både utveckling av normala bröstceller och tillväxt av bröstcancerceller. Det finns också belägg för att sköThyroid hormones and breast cancer-prospective studies on incidence, mortality and prognostic factors The aim of this thesis was to investigate in a prospective design, thyroid hormones in relation to breast cancer risk, mortality and prognostic factors. The association between total triiodothyronine (T3) levels and breast cancer risk was studied in 2185 women with146 incident breast cancer case
The dynamic range is an important quantity used to describe an image sensor. Wide/High/Extended dynamic range is often brought forward as an important feature to compare one device to another. The dynamic range of an image sensor is normally given as a single number, which is often insufficient since a single number will not fully describe the dynamic capabilities of the sensor. A camera is ideall
Popular Abstract in Swedish Kostfiber visar på gynnsamma effekter på blodsockersvar, inflammationsmarkörer och blodfetter utifrån tre humanstudier som genomfördes i detta arbete. I en av studierna analyserades blod och urin med metabolomik. Det är en metod där man analyserar alla små molekyler (metaboliter) som finns i provet med hjälp av vätskekromatografi kopplat till masspektrometri. Med hjälp It is well-known that dietary fibre can have a positive effect on the development of lifestyle-dependent diseases such as cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes. However, the effect may be different for different kinds of fibre and different sub-populations at risk. Therefore, the effects of three different kinds of fibre on postprandial and long-term response in healthy subjects were investig
This paper analyses the potential biomass supply in the 15 EU countries, 8 new member states and 2 candidate countries (ACC10), plus Belarus and the Ukraine. For this purpose five scenarios were designed to describe the short-, moderate- and long-term potential of biomass-for-energy. Our assessments show that under certain restrictions on land availability, the potential supply of biomass energy

The Euro50 is a European Extremely Large Telescope. Its enclosure will be among the largest buildings of the world. Determining the maximum wind load is crucial for the survival of the structure, and local forces have an impact on the detailed design such as cladding. Pressure variations on the primary mirror and the wind load on the telescope are important for the development of active optics and
Background: The path between patients and health care providers has adopted new advanced information technologies. However, opinions vary about the digital care meeting. Physicians have expressed concerns about increased workload, changes in working methods, and information security. Purpose: To explore physicians’ experiences and satisfaction of digital primary health care. Method: A convergent m
Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate people’s experiences of living with dysphagia after stroke, and their experiences of dysphagia management. Methods: The study design was qualitative, and an open-ended approach to data collection was used, with follow-up probing questions to gain more information as needed. Personal interviews were conducted with five persons who had persisting mod
Background The WHO estimates a global shortage of 2.8 million physicians, with severe deficiencies especially in low and middle-income countries (LMIC). The unequitable distribution of physicians worldwide is further exacerbated by the migration of physicians from LMICs to high-income countries (HIC). This large-scale migration has numerous economic consequences which include increased mortality a
Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingen har flera uppgifter, som på olika sätt hör ihop. Den första uppgiften går ut på att undersöka samvetskonflikter i det svenska samhället. I denna typ av konflikt är samvete och samvetsfrihet centrala begrepp och de är viktiga för att förstå och ta ställning i konflikterna. Den andra uppgiften blir därför att undersöka och förstå begreppet samvete och ge ett The aim of this study is to describe and analyse four conflicts and two concepts. Four conflicts of conscience found in Swedish society are studied in the second chapter. 2.2 - the state’s requirement that all male citizens do military service and the citizen’s right to refuse to do military service. 2.3 - obligatory course requirements and the college student’s right to refuse participation in c
