Dryland ecosystems are a major source of land cover, account for about 40% of Earth's terrestrial surface and net primary productivity, and house more than 30% of the human population. These ecosystems are subject to climate extremes (e.g. large-scale droughts and extreme floods) that are projected to increase in frequency and severity under most future climate scenarios. In this modelling study w

Purpose: To study the risk of incident breast cancer and subtype-specific breast cancer in relation to excess body weight in a contemporary Swedish prospective cohort study, The Karolinska Mammography Project for Risk Prediction of Breast Cancer, KARMA. Methods: A total of 35,412 postmenopausal women attending mammography and included in the KARMA study provided baseline data on body mass index (B
Fog makes a significant contribution to the hydrology of a wide range of important terrestrial ecosystems. The amount and frequency of fog immersion are affected by rapid ongoing anthropogenic changes but the impacts of these changes remain relatively poorly understood compared with changes in rainfall. Here, we present the design and performance of a novel experiment to actively manipulate low ly
Purpose: Although total dietary protein intake has been associated with bladder cancer (BC) risk, the effect of the origin (plant or animal) and the substitutions remain to be understood. This study aimed to investigate the effect of total dietary protein, animal-based protein, plant-based protein, and their substitutions with each other on the risk of BC using a pooled analysis of 10 cohort studi
OBJECTIVE: To investigate whether a history of recurrent urinary tract infection (UTI) and/or the presence of day-wetting/urge symptoms might influence the contractile responses to the cholinergic agonist carbachol or to the sensory neuropeptide neurokinin A (NKA) in the urinary bladder in children. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Small detrusor strips were taken from the margin of the cystotomy incision of
Policy for green growth and system innovation 1Advanced Programme for a National Innovation System POLICY FOR GREEN GROWTH AND SYSTEM INNOVATION CONTEXT The Nordic countries are among the forerunners in the transition to sustainable and prosperous societies, however, the severity of global warming and other grand challenges such as the biodiver- sity crisis makes it essential to maintain and stren

All women in the South Sweden Health Care Region with breast cancer diagnosed aged less than 41 during the period between 1990 and 1995 were contacted in 1996 and offered germline mutation analysis of the BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes. Mutation carriers (n = 20) were compared with noncarriers (n = 201) for overall survival (OS) and risk of contralateral breast cancer (CBC). Mutation carriers were younger
Using a newly developed in vivo model measuring glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) in gut lymphatics in mice, we quantified GLP-1 secretion in vivo after glucose versus fat ingestion with and without concomitant DPP-4 inhibition. The mesenteric lymphatic duct was cannulated in anesthetized C57BL6/J mice and lymph was collected in 30min intervals. Glucose or fat emulsion (Intralipid(R)) (0.03, 0.1 or
The dynamic properties of the glomerular filtration barrier (GFB) are of fundamental importance for the understanding of the physiology and pathophysiology of microalbuminuria and proteinuric diseases. In the studies of this doctoral thesis the properties of the rat glomerular filtration barrier were investigated under resting conditions and following a number of challenges using highly sensitive
We review the ecology and distributions of the chafers Liocola marmorata (F.), Gnorimus nobilis (L.) and Gnorimus variabilis (L.) in Sweden based on museum and several large private collections. These species live in hollow deciduous trees, in Sweden especially in oaks. The former and recently documented localities are shown on maps. More than 100 years ago, all the species as well as their habita
INTRODUCTION AND AIM Virtual Visit Tool is a computer tool containing a total documentation of the delivery ward of Ystad Hospital in Sweden. Virtual Visit Tool places the user within a photo-realistic simulation of the delivery ward. This pilot study has two aims: 1) to analyse how pregnant women walk through the virtual delivery ward and to see what catches their attention during the virtual wal
Ökande skador på skogen har observerats i stora delar av Europa sedan mitten av 1970-talet. Samma indikationer på skador sågs ganska snart även i Sverige. Skadorna observerades först på barrträdsbestånd, men under 1980-talet observerades även skador på lövträd, framförallt hos bok och ek. Skogsstyrelsen lät till följd av detta genomföra skogsskadeinventeringar 1988, 1993 och 1999 av bok (Fagus sylSince the middle of the 1970´s damage to forest have been observed in large areas of central Europe. The same indications on forest damage were soon found in Sweden as well. Forest damage was first observed in coniferous forest stands, but during the 1980´s damage indication were also observed on deciduous forest stand, particularly on beech and oak. To investigate this further the National Board
Background: The aim of the present study was to evaluate the future cumulative risk of prostate cancer in relation to levels of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) in blood and to determine whether this information could be used to individualize the PSA testing interval. Methods: The study included 5855 of 9972 men (aged 50-66 years) who accepted an invitation to participate in a prospective, randomiz
The immunosuppressant drug cyclosporin A (CsA) is considered to be inherently protective in conditions of ischemia, e.g. in hepatic and cardiac tissue. However, investigations of effects of CsA on neuronal tissue have been contradictory, probably because the blood-brain barrier (BBB) is virtually impermeable to CsA. In the present study, we exploited the finding that the insertion of a syringe nee

I think I am the last one on my street who have not set up my tree yet and everywhere you go there are lit up candy canes or little polar bears sitting around makeshift camp fires. There is even a house down the street who were not sati
