Hydrochlorothiazide has been associated with increased cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma risk. Meanwhile, its association with basal cell carcinoma (BCC) risk is controversial. The association between commonly prescribed antihypertensive medications and BCC risk in the Swedish population was investigated. All cases with a histopathologically verified BCC in Sweden during 2007–2017 and 2 matched co
Background: Pain in children is undertreated. An assessment scale co-designed with children, parents, and health care professionals could lead to more effective pain assessments and treatment strategies aimed at reducing pain and pain-related symptoms. There are analogue scales validated for self-report of pain in children, but today, children regularly use digital technology, which healthcare sho
Introduction: Amyloid- and tau-positron emission tomography (PET) are promising modalities for detecting pathological changes associated with Alzheimer’s disease (AD); however, their application is limited. Although the use of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biomarkers as alternatives to amyloid-PET and tau-PET has been explored, no in vitro diagnostic-approved or commercial CSF biomarker assays are cur
Currently, the European Union (EU) is the “green leader”, globally, in adopting policies to support longer product lifetimes. One reason for this state of affairs is that EU Member States are adopting progressive policies, which put pressure on the EU to set EU-wide laws to replace national ones. The main reason for this situation is that national rules may lead to distortions in trade in the EU S
Context. Strongly lensed quasars are fundamental sources for cosmology. The Gaia space mission covers the entire sky with the unprecedented resolution of 0.18âà € ³ in the optical, making it an ideal instrument to search for gravitational lenses down to the limiting magnitude of 21. Nevertheless, the previous Gaia Data Releases are known to be incomplete for small angular separations such as thos
Improving accuracy and timeliness for osteoporosis diagnosis could help prevent fragility fractures, morbidity, and mortality for older individuals. Osteoporosis is an often silent health condition, especially as regards vertebral fractures, and WHO issued a call to action for primary care to lead efforts in screening, assessing, and managing diseases such as osteoporosis. We used a machine learni
whiH is one of several known loci specifically needed for the orderly multiple sporulation septation of aerial hyphae of Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2) and for the expression of at least some late sporulation genes. DNA complementing whiH mutants was located immediately upstream of hrdB, which encodes the principal σ factor of S. coelicolor. Sequencing revealed a gene whose disruption gave rise to
This article analyses how a newly established set of actors – online brokerage firms (OBFs) – sought to popularise stock trading among the Swedish populace in the late 1990s. During this period, internet usage took off and stock markets surged rapidly up until the dotcom bubble burst in 2000. Sweden was at the forefront of both these international developments, and we analyse the intimate connecti
Based on a combination of morphometric analyses, a chloroplast DNA phylogeny, and multivariate analyses of whole genome sequence data from >300 museum samples, we discuss and evaluate the delimitation, taxonomy, and evolution of wild and escaped taxa in Mentha subgen. Mentha, focusing on the northern hemisphere. Thirteen species (Mentha aquatica, M. arvensis, M. australis, M. capensis, M. dahurica
Obesity represents a global health challenge, with a critical and urgent need for long-term, sustainable management strategies. Tirzepatide is a novel dual glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist. At first approved for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus, tirzepatide represents one of the latest clinically approved and commercia
Stormwater management is essential for preventing urban flooding and protecting water quality in receiving bodies. Traditionally viewed as a nuisance, stormwater is now being re-evaluated as an alternative resource for non-potable uses such as toilet flushing and irrigation through rainwater harvesting systems (RWHS). Within the European Union's Horizon 2020 project REWAISE, pilot studies with cer
Galactoglucomannan (GGM) has been identified as a valuable resource and can be used in fields such as oxygen barrier films, food coatings or hydrogels. This hemicellulose can be extracted from softwood using steam explosion (STEX) under mild conditions. However, the GGM-solution also contains impurities such as lignin, lignin-carbohydrate complexes, organic acids, and salts, which require further

Det finns mängder av dokumentärer, podcasts och filmer som tillhör genren true crime. Bland konsumen
I det här arbetet har jag studerat och provat olika metoder som kan användas vid memorering av musik. Syftet var att hitta de metoder som passade min övning bäst och gav mig mer frihet vid mina framträdanden. Jag valde att fokusera på solostycket With för viola av Reine Jönsson som jag ska spela på min examenskonsert. Jag har bland annat utforskat mental övning, memoreringsprocessen, avslappning vIn this work, I have studied and tried different methods that can be used when memorizing music. The aim was to find the methods that suited my practice best and gave me more freedom in my performances. I chose to focus on the solo piece With for viola by Reine Jönsson that I will play at my graduation concert. I’ve read about mental practice, the memorization process, relaxation during memorizati
As climate change and unsustainable waste practices present major global challenges, effective waste management in developing countries becomes critically important. In South Africa, organic waste constitutes a significant share of general waste and is often landfilled, contributing to methane emissions and serious health risks for the population. In response, the Western Cape province has introdu
The purpose of our study was to examine the attitude of police officers toward collaborating with social services in exit programs, with a specific focus on organizational conditions and the relationship between the authorities. The empirical data consisted of interviews with six police officers, three of whom are based in Malmö, Sweden. The other three were located in different local police distr
The demand for plant-based meat analogues (PBMAs) continues to rise, fuelled by environmental and health motivations. However, their nutritional quality remains a concern due to the presence of anti-nutritional factors (ANFs) such as phytic acid (PA), which can reduce the bioavailability of essential minerals and hinder protein digestibility. Additionally, sensory limitations and the frequent use
Infrastruktursektorn är beroende av detaljerad information om markförhållanden för att säkerställa en miljömässig och socialt hållbar utveckling. Nuvarande hydrogeologiska metoder, såsom invasiv borrning, är ofta kostsamma, tidskrävande och begränsade i geografisk täckning av ett undersökningsområde. Direktströms resistivitet och tidsdomän-inducerad polarisering (DCIP) erbjuder ett icke-invasivt, The infrastructure sector relies on detailed subsurface data for environmentally and socially responsible development. Traditional hydrogeological methods, like invasive drilling, are costly, time-consuming, and limited in spatial coverage. Direct Current resistivity and time-domain Induced Polarization (DCIP) offer a non-invasive, cost-effective and spatially extensive alternative for estimating
