Background: beta-Microseminoprotein (MSP) is one of the three most abundantly secreted proteins of the prostate and has been suggested as a biomarker for prostate cancer risk. A common variant, rs10993994, in the 5' region of the gene that encodes MSP (MSMB) has recently been identified as a risk factor for prostate cancer. Methods: We examined the association between rs10993994 genotype and MSP l
Background: It is thought that patients with inborn errors of immunity (IEI) are more susceptible to severe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) than the general population, but a quantification of this potential risk is largely missing. Objective: We assessed the impact of COVID-19 on patients with IEI. Methods: A nationwide cohort study was performed to estimate the relative risk (RR) for hospita
This study assessed: (i) how the magnitude and direction of principal strains vary for different sideways fall loading directions; (ii) how the principal strains for a sideways fall differ from physiological loading directions; (iii) the fracture mechanism during a sideways fall. Eleven human femurs were instrumented with 16 triaxial strain gauges each. The femurs were non-destructively subjected
INTRODUCTIONThis study examines medication reviews (MRs) among people living with dementia (PWD) in Sweden, focusing on frequency and factors influencing access.METHODSUsing nationwide register data, all diagnosed PWD from 2010 to 2016 were assessed for MR receipt in 2015 and/or 2016. The analysis guided by the Andersen healthcare utilization framework, considered predisposing, enabling, and need-
Human milk fat is a concentrated source of energy and provides essential and long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids. According to previous experiments, human milk fat is partially lost during continuous enteral nutrition. However, these experiments were done over relatively short infusion times, and a complete profile of the lost fatty acids was never measured. Whether this loss happens considerin
The results of a search for the top squark, the supersymmetric partner of the top quark, in final states with one isolated electron or muon, jets, and missing transverse momentum are reported. The search uses the 2015 LHC pp collision data at a center-of-mass energy of s=13 TeV recorded by the ATLAS detector and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.2 fb-1. The analysis targets two types
The present work reports new experimental data for premixed flames of nitromethane, CH3NO2, at atmospheric pressure, and an evaluation of two contemporary kinetic mechanisms based on these new flame studies as well as previously published experimental data on laminar burning velocity and ignition. Flames of nitromethane + air at lean (ϕ = 0.8) and rich (ϕ = 1.2) conditions were stabilized on a fla
The burden of depression and anxiety disorders is greater in women, and female sex hormones have been shown to affect mood. Psychological side effects of hormonal contraception (HC) are also a common complaint in the clinic, but few previous studies have investigated this subject. We therefore wanted to investigate whether use of HC was associated with adverse psychological health outcomes, and wh
The effect of age on ICA and thyrogastric antibodies at diagnosis of IDDM was evaluated in 633 consecutively diagnosed Swedish diabetic patients aged 15-34 yr and in 282 volunteers of the same age. ICAs were present in 61% (383 of 633) of the patients and in 2% (5 of 282) of control subjects. When the initial classification was considered, ICAs were detected in 69% (327 of 473) of patients with ID
Objectives: To assess the interreader agreement and reader performance in the evaluation of patients with pancreatic cancer (PC) in two classification systems of local resectability status prior to initiation of therapy, namely the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) and Karolinska classification system (KCS). Methods: In this ethics review board-approved retrospective study, six radiolog
Somatic variations are frequent and important drivers in cancers. Amino acid substitutions can yield neoantigens that are detected by the immune system. Neoantigens can lead to immune response and tumor rejection. Although neoantigen load and occurrence have been widely studied, a detailed pan-cancer analysis of the occurrence and characterization of neoepitopes is missing. We investigated the pro
t is well known that overweight/obesity are risk factors for several important conditions of internal medicine. The positive correlation between gonarthrosis and a high BMI is also well investigated. However, the possible correlation between owerweight/obesitas and other orthopaedic conditions are less well studied and are therefore rarely discussed in either medical terms or economical considerat
Background: The risk of venous tromboembolism (VTE) in women taking combined oral contraceptives (COCs) is attributed to changes in coagulation and fibrinolysis. The impact of the COCs may be greater in women with preexisting thrombophilic defects. Nevertheless most women who suffer from venous thrombosis do not have any of the well known hereditary or acquired risk factors. A simple and sensitive
The aim of this study was to assess knee extensor and flexor muscle torque in individuals with hemiparesis after stroke and determine the relationship with muscle tone. Fifty individuals (mean age 58 +/- 6.4 years), 6 to 48 months after stroke, participated in the study. Maximal concentric knee extension and flexion torque at 60 degrees/s and 120 degrees/s and maximal eccentric knee extension cont
Popular Abstract in Swedish Vilken typ av mat vi konsumerar och hur den produceras har stor inverkan på vår miljö och hälsa. Den globala livsmedelsproduktionen ockuperar drygt en tredjedel av världens markyta, står för runt 30 % av den totala klimatpåverkan och är identifierad som ett av de största hoten mot vår miljö. Vi lever också i en värld där nästan en miljard människor går hungriga och ännu

OBJECTIVE. Severe (PiZZ) alpha(1)-antitrypsin (AAT) deficiency is a risk factor for liver disease, i.e. juvenile cirrhosis in infancy, and cirrhosis and hepatoma in adulthood. Little is known about the risk of liver disease in individuals with moderate (PiSZ) AAT deficiency. To investigate the natural course of AAT deficiency, a cohort of PiZZ and PiSZ individuals identified by the Swedish Nationa
