Popular Abstract in Swedish Svenska knäplastikregistret och knäledsoperation med enkammarprotes av Stefan Lewold Ledsjukdom, oftast artros, är den vanligaste kroniska åkomman hos äldre. Dess orsak är oftast inte känd och någon förebyggande behandling finns inte. Icke operativ behandling kan i tidiga stadier dämpa symptomen men då sjukdomen fortskrider får patienten allt svårare att klara sig. GenThe Swedish Knee Arthroplasty study has prospectively registered and followed knee arthroplasties done in Sweden since 1976. Demography, epidemiology and general knee prosthetic biofunction is given for 30,003 primary knee arthro-plasties and their revisions through 1992. The annual number of knee arthroplasties increased fourth fold while the relative use of Unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UK

Introduction Chronic rejection (CHR) of organ allografts, one of the most significant problems in modern transplantation, is not fully understood. This study sought to evaluate the influence of selected parameters on late kidney transplant function. Patients and Method The studied group consisted of eighty-six patients who received allogeneic transplants between 1988 and 1999 for leukocyte Chlam

BACKGROUND: Histamine is thought to play a central role in the regulation of gastric acid secretion. In the rat oxyntic mucosa most of the histamine is synthesized and stored in enterochromaffin-like (ECL) cells, and the rest resides in mast cells. The present study examines the role of ECL-cell histamine in the control of acid secretion in the intact, conscious rat. METHODS: Rats were treated wit

Popular Abstract in Swedish Denna avhandling handlar om hur företag visar, och kan visa, miljöhänsyn vid upphandling av godstransporttjänster. Transporter är en starkt bidragande, och växande, faktor till många miljöproblem såsom den förstärkta växthuseffekten och hälsofarliga partiklar i luften. Behovet av transporter ökar ständigt till följd av exempelvis lokalisering av produktion till låglöneThe logistical activity of transport is one of the largest contributors to several environmental problems. One efficient and effective way to decrease the environmental impact from transports is to implement changes in the logistically related strategies and activities applied, such as the selection of transport suppliers. Consideration of the environmental aspect when purchasing transport servic

Background: Low adherence to lipid-lowering therapy (LLT) after myocardial infarction (MI) is associated with increased risk of recurrent cardiovascular events and death. However, little is known about long-term adherence patterns following treatment interruptions. The aim of this study was to describe adherence trajectories in MI patients following a LLT treatment gap, and model the impact of dif

Background Endoscopic papillectomy is a standard treatment for ampullary lesions, which are typically small and confined to the papillary mound. Laterally spreading lesions (LSLs) of the papilla of Vater are a rare ampullary lesion subtype involving extensive duodenal mucosa. Data on endoscopic papillectomy outcomes for LSLs are limited. This study compared endoscopic papillectomy for ampullary LS

Hard turning offers a cost-effective alternative to traditional grinding, yet the tool wear progression limits the broader industrial adoption. During hard turning, the surface microstructure of AISI 52100 steel transforms into a nanocrystalline structure known as white layer, accompanied by significant surface residual stresses. With optimal cutting conditions, surfaces develop nanocrystalline mi

AimsDyspnoea accounts for nearly 5% of emergency department (ED) visits. Our aim was to describe the in-hospital and long-term outcomes of patients admitted to the ED for dyspnoea, based on their underlying aetiology, and to determine if prognosis varies according to the hospitalization setting.MethodsWe analyzed 18 903 consecutive patients (48% male, average age 73 years) hospitalized after an ED

Background: The aim was to evaluate whether an artificial intelligence (AI)-based tool for the automated quantification of the total metabolic tumour volume (tMTV) in patients with Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) could support nuclear medicine specialists in lesion segmentation and thereby enhance inter-observer agreement. Methods: Forty-eight consecutive patients who underwent staging with [18F]FDG PET/CT
