Summary: In community dwelling, 75-year-old women followed 10 years, a frailty index was created at each of three visits. Frailty score increased by ~ 6–7% annually. A higher frailty score was equivalent to being 5–10 years chronologically older. Frailty was associated with low bone density and higher risk of dying. Introduction: To understand the distribution of frailty among a population-based s

Background: The development of factor (F) VIII neutralizing alloantibodies (inhibitors) is a major complication of treatment with FVIII concentrates in hemophilia A and the etiology is still poorly understood. The low-affinity Fc gamma receptors (Fc gamma R), which are expressed on immune cells, provide an important link between cellular and humoral immunity by interacting with IgG subtypes. Genet

Objective: This study examined whether previously reported results, indicating that prostate-specific antigen (PSA) screening can reduce prostate cancer (PC) mortality regardless of sociodemographic inequality, could be corroborated in an 18 year follow-up. Materials and methods: In 1994, 20,000 men aged 50–64 years were randomized from the Göteborg population register to PSA screening or control

Popular Abstract in Swedish Akut faryngotonsillit orsakas till ca 40 % av betahaemolytiska grupp A streptokocker (GAS) och till ca 10% av andra bakterier. Ca 30% av fallen är virusutlösta och i ca 20% är genesen okänd. GAS är mycket virulenta humanpatogener som förutom svalg- och hudinfektioner även kan förorsaka livshotande tillstånd som ?streptococcal toxic shock syndrome? och nekrotiserande fasIn acute pharyngotonsillitis group A streptococci (GAS) is the etiological agent in 30-50% of cases. Phenoxymethylpenicillin (pcV) is the drug of choice in Sweden. However, the failure rate is as high as 5-25% and further pcV treatment is followed by still higher failure rates. The background of failures remains largely elusive. The aim of the studies was: 1 To investigate the short- and long-term

Abstract Objective: To evaluate the long-term outcome of men with an initial prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level below 3 ng/mL and whether the free-to-total (F/T PSA) ratio is a useful prognostic marker in this range. Materials and methods: This study is based on 5,174 men aged 50–66 years, who in 1995–1996 participated in the first round of the Göteborg randomized screening trial (initial T-PSA

Background: Prostate cancer (PC) survivors may potentially use substances to cope with psychological distress or poorly controlled physical symptoms. Little is known, however, about the long-term risks of alcohol use disorder (AUD) or drug use disorders in men with PC. Methods: A national cohort study was conducted in Sweden of 180-189 men diagnosed with PC between 1998 and 2017 and 1 801 890 age-

The important bacterial pathogen Streptococcus pyogenes secretes IdeS (immunoglobulin G-degrading enzyme of S. pyogenes), a proteinase that cleaves human immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibodies in the hinge region resulting in Fc (fragment crystallizable) and F(ab')2 (fragment antigen-binding) fragments and protects the bacteria against phagocytic killing. Experiments with radiolabeled IdeS and flow cyt

Post-Antibiotic Futures – Interrogating the realities and imaginings of the post-antibiotic era THEME 2019-2020 Today, antibiotic resistance is an international fact; an estimated 50,000 people die every year in Europe and The United States as a result of bacteria that have become resistant. However, imagination can easily conjure up an escalation and an even more dystopian future. Thus, it is est

Pancreatic cancer (PC) is a highly fatal cancer with currently limited opportunities for early detection and effective treatment. Modifiable factors may offer pathways for primary prevention. In this study, the association between the Healthy Lifestyle Index (HLI) and PC risk was examined. Within the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition cohort, 1113 incident PC (57% women)

In this paper we discuss $(\epsilon,\delta)$-Freudenthal Kantor triple systems with certain structure on the subspace $L_{-2}$ of the corresponding standard embedding five graded Lie (super)algebra $L(\epsilon,\delta):=L_{-2}\oplus L_{-1}\oplus L_0\oplus L_1\oplus L_2; [L_i,L_j]\subseteq L_{i+j}$. We recall Lie and Jordan structures associated with $(\epsilon,\delta)$-Freudenthal Kantor triple sys

The aim of this investigation was to assess the Ku70/Ku80 complex as a potential target for antibody imaging of prostate cancer. We evaluated the in vivo and ex vivo tumor targeting and biodistribution of the (111)In-labeled human internalizing antibody, INCA-X ((111)In-DTPA-INCA-X antibody), in NMRI-nude mice bearing human PC-3, PC-3M-Lu2 or DU145 xenografts.

Background: Studies show that early, integrated palliative care (PC) improves quality of life (QoL) and end-of-life (EoL) care for patients with poor-prognosis cancers. However, the optimal strategy for delivering PC for those with advanced cancers who have longer disease trajectories, such as metastatic breast cancer (MBC), remains unknown. We tested the effect of a PC intervention on the documen

In the current work, cationic polymers functionalized with N-alicyclic quaternary ammonium (QA) cations were synthesized and characterized as potential hydroxide exchange membranes (HEMs) for application in fuel cells. Three different polymers, namely poly(arylene ether sulfone), spiro-ionene and poly(arylene alkylene), were explored as polymer backbones for the HEMs. Various mono- and spirocyclic
