An unbalanced chromosome number (aneuploidy) is present in most malignant tumours and has been attributed to mitotic mis-segregation of chromosomes. However, recent studies have shown a relatively high rate of chromosomal mis-segregation also in non-neoplastic human cells, while the frequency of aneuploid cells remains low throughout life in most normal tissues. This implies that newly formed aneu
OBJECTIVE: To study the association of physician's sex with blood pressure, lipid control, and cardiovascular risk factors in treated hypertensive men and women, stratified for the sex of their physician. METHODS: In a cross-sectional survey of hypertensive patients, 264 primary care physicians (PCPs), 187 men and 77 women from across Sweden, recruited 6537 treated hypertensive patients (48% men)
Objectives. Using prospectively collected registry data to investigate sick leave (sickness benefit and sickness compensation) over a 7-yr period in patients with AS in comparison with population-based controls matched for age, sex and residential area. Methods. We investigated 122 (21 women and 101 men) outpatients with AS in South Sweden, born 1942 or later, from rheumatology specialist care for
Objective This study assessed pesticide exposure of children in rural Nicaragua in relation to parental pesticide use, from around conception to current school age, as part of an epidemiological evaluation of neurodevelopment effects. Methods We included 132 children whose parents were subsistence farmers or plantation workers, or had an agricultural history. As proxies for children's long-term ex
Abstract in French Donnees de base Des études menées en Arique de l'ouest et ailleurs ont suggeree que le vaccin Bacille Calmette-Guerin (BCG) administréà la naissance était bénéfique pour la survie de l'enfant. Cet effet bénéfique proviendrait en partie de l'effet sur la malaria, une hypothèse supportée par des études sur animal. Nous avons investigué si la revaccination avec le BCG à 19 mois rBACKGROUND: Studies in West Africa and elsewhere have suggested that Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) vaccine given at birth is beneficial for child survival. It is possible that this effect is mediated partly through an effect on malaria, a hypothesis supported by animal studies. We investigated whether revaccination with BCG at 19 months of age reduced morbidity from malaria. METHOD: In the capita
This study investigates the efficacy of tumor radioimmunotargeting with 125I-labeled BR96-biotin monoclonal antibody using a new method, whole-blood immunoadsorption (WBIA), based on direct adsorption of unbound monoclonal antibody (MAb) from blood without preceding separation of plasma. METHODS: Highly tumor-reactive, internalizing, chimeric BR96 MAb of isotype IgG1 binds to a tumor-associated Le
Within the framework of the European Land Arctic Physical Processes project and as part of the Danish Research Council's Polar Program, a study on trace gas exchange in a high-arctic ecosystem was conducted in NE Greenland, May-August 1997. On the basis of carbon dioxide flux measurements from three dominant surface types, this paper reports on the upscaling of such measurements from canopy to lan
Phosphodiesterase type 3B (PDE3B) has been shown to be activated and phosphorylated in response to insulin and hormones that increase cAMP. In order to study serine/threonine protein phosphatases involved in the regulation of rat adipocyte PDE3B, we investigated the phosphorylation and activation of PDE3B in vivo in response to phosphatase inhibitors and the dephosphorylation and deactivation of P
The purpose of this qualitative study was to research how people's experience of having a sibling with an autism spectrum disorder affected their upbringing. We held six semi-structured interviews where we examined three different aspects of the participants’ lives in regard to their upbringing and sibling. 1: Their relationship with their sibling. 2: Their role in the family. 3: What kind of
The primary objective of this study was to validate the Swedish version of the New Sexual Satisfaction Scale-Short form (NSSS-S) in the Swedish population and explore its association with protective psychological factors, including self-compassion, body awareness, and body appreciation. The questionnaire survey method was used in this study, and a sample of Swedish-speaking participants (n = 164)
This essay deals with the early trans movement in Sweden, which started in the sixties. Through the personal archive of Eva-Lisa Bengtson, activist and co-founder, it presents the groups Transvestia and FPE-NE (Full personality Expression, Northern Europe) as the first organisations to be started by and for any gender non-conforming people in Sweden. Their primary target group were heterosexual, m
I denna studie utvärderades hur olika sätt att integrera AI-stöd i det kliniska arbetsflödet påverkar diagnostisk precision och tidseffektivitet. Totalt 51 yrkesverksamma inom psykisk hälsa genomförde diagnostiska bedömningar av simulerade patientfall i plattformen TalkToAlba. Deltagarna randomiserades till en av tre grupper: proaktivt stöd (AI före patientintervjun), retroaktivt stöd (AI före &am
The purpose with this paper is to put forward the complexity with employees’ identification with an organizations brand and the organization overall. We wish to examine the effects of internal employer branding, both through mainstream perspectives as well as through normative control. We hope to contribute with empirical support and deepen the knowledge for the impact that the brand has for the e
Six silos stand as surreal monolithic objects amongst the newly developed housing area in Limhamn, Malmö. They are one of the last reminders of the district’s cement manufacturing history and have a controversial presence in their central urban position with plans to convert their plot into a mixed-use housing development. This thesis project centers around these underutilized voids in the city an
Välgrundade förutsägelser av olika livsmedels kvalitet och säkerhet är mycket viktiga för att förebygga matsvinn. Ofta görs dessa förutsägelser med hjälp av lagringsstudier där produkten lagras i förhållanden som simulerar produktens väg från producent till dagligvaruhandel. Dessa studier kräver mycket resurser och tid, vilket belyser behovet av accelererade hållbarhetsstudier – som är baserade påAccurate predictions about the quality and safety of food are critical to prevent food waste. Often, food is stored in conditions simulating a product’s way from production to retail, which allows producers to assess quality and safety during the product’s shelf life. These storage trials are costly and time-consuming, meaning that there is incentive to reduce the testing time. Accelerated shelf-l
Patient safety is a key component in healthcare, in particular within the widespread use of medical technology. A proactive approach to patient safety in medical technology is essential for fulfilling the healthcare system’s duty to protect patients from harm. At the department Digitalisering IT och MT at Region Skåne, all proactive patient safety efforts are currently handled manually. The aim of
