Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) has been the main drive for early detection of prostate cancer (PCa), including in population-based screening as in the European Randomised Study for Screening of Prostate Cancer (ERSPC). The specificity of PSA to indicate men with biopsy detectable prostate cancer can be improved by adding information obtained by new biomarkers, such as PSA isoforms. This improveme
BACKGROUND: Emergency computed tomography angiography (CTA) is the most important imaging modality to visualize arterial occlusions in patients with acute lower limb ischaemia (ALI). Extravascular incidental findings (EVIFs) have received less attention.PURPOSE: The aims of this study were to evaluate the incidence of EVIFs of immediate clinical relevance in patients with ALI undergoing CTA and ev
OBJECTIVES: Tumour necrosis factor-α inhibitor (TNFi) treatment has been shown to reduce the rates of anterior uveitis (AU) in patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS). Our objective was to compare the effect of adalimumab (ADA), etanercept (ETN) and infliximab (IFX) on AU occurrence in AS, using real-world data.METHODS: Patients with AS starting ADA, ETN or IFX as their first TNFi from January 2
The purpose of this study was to describe the outcomes of the clients with addiction problems who cease to have contact with a social welfare agency (Vuxenenheten), in relation to the task and aims of the organisation. The study indicated that in total, 90 clients with addiction problems leave the contact with the social welfare agency in a year, which gives a turnover of clients about 25 %. Of th

Background: Patients with ruptured gastrointestinal stromal tumour (GIST) have poor prognosis. Little information is available about how adjuvant imatinib influences survival. Methods: We explored recurrence-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS) of patients with ruptured GIST who participated in a randomised trial (SSG XVIII/AIO), where 400 patients with high-risk GIST were allocated to ad
Background: The optimal treatment for metastatic high-grade gastroenteropancreatic (GEP) neuroendocrine neoplasms when Ki-67 ≤55% is unknown. A prospective multi-centre phase 2 study was performed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of everolimus and temozolomide as first-line treatment for these patients. Methods: Patients received everolimus 10 mg daily continuously and temozolomide 150 mg/m2 fo
The potential of mean force between two spherical and like-charged macroions in a salt-free aqueous solution has been determined using an extended primitive model and canonical Monte Carlo simulations. The systems considered covered the range from a purely repulsive to a purely attractive potential of mean force as the electrostatic coupling was increased. The macroions were modeled as spherical d
Purpose: Flattening filter free (FFF) beams generated by medical linear accelerators have recently started to be used in radiotherapy clinical practice. Such beams present fundamental differences with respect to the standard filter flattened (FF) beams, making the generally used dosimetric parameters and definitions not always viable. The present study will propose possible definitions and suggest
Purpose: Ultra-low field MRI scanners have the potential to improve health care delivery, both through improved access in areas where there are few MRI scanners and allowing more frequent monitoring of disease progression and treatment response. This may be particularly true in white matter disorders, including leukodystrophies and multiple sclerosis, in which frequent myelin-sensitive imaging, su
Aims: To evaluate outcome in the first generation of children with end-stage heart disease to whom heart transplantation was available. Methods: Retrospective review of all 135 Swedish children <18 years old listed for heart transplantation 1989-2009, followed to December 31, 2009, including 74 (55%) with cardiomyopathy and 61 (45%) with congenital heart disease; 34 (25%) were infants (<1 year).
Black holes exceeding a billion solar masses have been detected at redshifts greater than six. The rapid formation of these objects may suggest a massive early seed or a period of growth faster than Eddington. Here we suggest a new mechanism along these lines. We propose that in the process of hierarchical structure assembly, dense star clusters can be contracted on dynamical timescales due to the
