Cellobiose dehydrogenase (CDH) is an emerging enzyme in the field of bioelectrocatalysis. Due to its flexible cytochrome domain, which acts as a built-in redox mediator, CDH is capable of direct electron transfer (DET) to electrode surfaces. This rare property is employed in mediatorless "third generation" biosensors. The ability of Corynascus thermophilus CDH to oxidize glucose under physiologica
To determine benefits and harms of arthroscopic knee surgery involving partial meniscectomy, debridement, or both for middle aged or older patients with knee pain and degenerative knee disease.
Today, the majority of prostate tumours are detected at early stages with uncertain prognosis. Therefore, we set out to identify early predictive markers of prostate cancer with aggressive progression characteristics. We measured the expression of microRNAs (miRNA) using qRT-PCR in FFPE prostatic tissue samples from a Swedish cohort of 49 patients with prostate cancer and 25 without cancer and fou
Driver applications are increasingly used in professional driving to support route planning, order management, documentation, and communication. When drivers need to read, interpret, or interact with information in close proximity to driving, these systems can also create visual, manual, and cognitive distractions, increasing traffic safety risk. This master's thesis was conducted in collabora
Denna studie undersöker hur slutpriset vid exekutiva försäljningar av småhus och bostadsrätter förhåller sig till bedömt marknadsvärde och till prisbildningen på den frivilliga marknaden. Exekutiva försäljningar som genomförs av Kronofogdemyndigheten(KFM) skiljer sig från frivilliga transaktioner på ett grundläggande sätt: de sker under tvång, med begränsad objektinformation och en reglerad försälThis study examines how transaction prices of forced sales of single-family houses and tenant-owned apartments relate to assessed market value and to prices on the free market. In this study, the term forced sales is used to describe enforcement sales conducted by the Swedish Enforcement Authority (Kronofogdemyndigheten, KFM). Forced sales differ fundamentally from voluntary transactions in that t
Bacterial infection and hemorrhage remain significant clinical challenges for chronic wounds, despite advancements in antimicrobial strategies and materials. Herein, 980 nm-laser-responsive photothermal conjugated polymers (CPs) are combined with chitosan-based cryogels (CP@Gel) to achieve rapid hemostasis and efficient anti-infectious performance. CP nanoparticles (CP NPs) were prepared by nanopr
Market-based instruments have become a widely used approach to motivate landowners to conserve forests instead of clearing them. However, such market-based instruments are increasingly criticized for their simplistic view on complex environmental, social and economic issues; for their ethical stance; and for creating exchange value for essential ecosystems services, which potentially perpetuates a
Single cell gene expression assays have become a powerful tool with which to dissect heterogeneous populations. While methods and software exist to interrogate such data, what has been lacking is a unified solution combining analysis and visualisation which is also accessible and intuitive for use by non-bioinformaticians, as well as bioinformaticians.
The present intervention was designed to investigate whether a 14-week period of regular recreational association football (F) or endurance running (R) has an effect on the risk of falls and bone fractures due to gains in muscle function and volumetric bone mineral density (vBMD). Fifty healthy untrained Danish premenopausal women were randomized into two training groups (F and R) that trained 1.8
The incidence of Hodgkin lymphoma has increased among adolescents and young adults in recent decades, but the relevant risk factors in early life are still unknown. A national cohort study was conducted of 3,571,574 individuals born in Sweden in 19732008 and followed up for Hodgkin lymphoma incidence through 2009, to examine perinatal and family risk factors for Hodgkin lymphoma in childhood throu
We introduce a density functional formalism to study the ground-state properties of strongly correlated dipolar and ionic ultracold bosonic and fermionic gases, based on the self-consistent combination of the weak and the strong coupling limits. Contrary to conventional density functional approaches, our formalism does not require a previous calculation of the interacting homogeneous gas, and it i
BACKGROUND: Acute allergic reactions (AARs) occur shortly after exposure to an allergen, and the severity is on a continuum. Systemic corticosteroids (CS) are mainstay treatment of moderate to severe AARs, whereas those at risk of the most severe AARs (ie, anaphylaxis) are also recommended prescription of epinephrine autoinjectors. There is limited research on the impact of AARs not fulfilling the
Background: People with aphasia (PWA) after ischemic stroke often have difficulties in communication and social participation. To individualise rehabilitation and optimise recovery, there is a need for knowledge regarding prevalence of aphasia, and language functions in relation to long-term recovery and health-related quality of life (HRQoL). In this study, we examined these issues in a Swedish s
Music therapy is a “vocally demanding profession” [1, p. 46]. Currently, little is known about the prevalence and about the possible risk factors for voice disorders within music therapy. As music therapy workspaces may not always be ideal in terms of acoustics, the aim of the study is to investigate room acoustics and noise as risk factors for possible voice disorders among music therapists in Fi
The aging of us humans is individual and occurs gradually over a long period of time. Some functions in the body deteriorate and older people often have difficulty for various reasons to get the amount of nutrition they need, so they usually need to divide their diet into more meals distributed during the day. In this essay, the diet served in a retirement home in a small municipality in northwest
Abstract (Swedish) Vägföreningen Vikhögs Uddeväg har under lång tid upplevt problem och risker med kusterosion för sin privata väg. Denna studie ämnar utreda vilka förutsättningar som ligger bakom problemen och hur problemen kan utvecklas i framtiden. Studien ämnar också undersöka vilka resurser som finns tillgängliga i samhället för små kustsamhällen att använda sig av för att skydda sin egendom
