Generaliserad tillit till andra människor är både en individuell psykologisk egenskap och en kollektiv egenskap hos sociala kontexter/samhällen. Vissa författare betraktar tillit som en aspekt av socialt kapital. Tillit formas genom vänskapliga relationer, ömsesidighet, ömsesidig hjälp, jämlika relationer, samarbete och optimism och jämlikhet och religion under tonåren och vuxenlivet. Speciellt mi
Mutations resulting in constitutive activation of signaling pathways that regulate ribosome biogenesis are among the most common genetic events in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). However, whether ribosome biogenesis presents as a therapeutic target to treat AML remains unexplored. Perturbations in ribosome biogenesis trigger the 5S ribonucleoprotein particle (RNP)–Mdm2–p53 ribosomal stress pathway,
DEBATT. Om konsumenters data och tillit; om behov av kunskap, kompetens och kritisk blick för det datadrivna; och om behovet av att sticka hål på universitetens silos.
Conditional knockout mice are commonly used to study the function of specific genes in hematopoiesis. Different promoters that drive Cre expression have been utilized, with the interferon-inducible Mx1-Cre still being the most commonly used “deleter strain” in experimental hematology. However, different pitfalls associated with this system could lead to misinterpretation in functional studies. We
Even though leukemia is considered to be confined to one specific hematopoietic cell type, cases of acute leukemia of ambiguous lineage and patients relapsing in phenotypically altered disease suggest that a malignant state may be transferred between lineages. Because B-cell leukemia is associated with mutations in transcription factors of importance for stable preservation of lineage identity, we
Diamond-Blackfan anemia is a congenital erythroid hypoplasia and is associated with physical malformations and a predisposition to cancer. Twenty-five percent of patients with Diamond-Blackfan anemia have mutations in a gene encoding ribosomal protein S19 (RPS19). Through overexpression of RPS19 using a lentiviral vector with the spleen focus-forming virus promoter, we demonstrated that the Diamon
A gradual restriction in lineage potential of multipotent stem/progenitor cells is a hallmark of adult hematopoiesis, but the underlying molecular events governing these processes remain incompletely understood. Here, we identified robust expression of the leukemia-associated transcription factor hepatic leukemia factor (Hlf) in normal multipotent hematopoietic progenitors, which was rapidly downr
Background/purpose: The objective of this study was to explore the impact of systemic lupuserythematosus and belimumab given in addition to standard of care therapy on 13-valentconjugated pneumococcal vaccine (PCV13) response. Methods: Forty-seven systemic lupuserythematosus patients and 21 healthy controls were immunized with a single dose of13-valent conjugated pneumococcal vaccine. Forty system
To identify homeless people with chronic kidney disease (CKD) who were at highest risk for end-stage renal disease (ESRD), we studied 982 homeless and 15,674 domiciled people with CKD receiving public health care. We developed four risk prediction models for the primary outcome of ESRD. Overall, 71 homeless and 888 domiciled people progressed to ESRD during follow-up (median: 6.6 years). Homeless
Purpose Asthma is frequently reported in endurance athletes. The aim of the present study was to assess the long-term airway inflammatory response to endurance exercise in high-level athletes with and without asthma. Methods In a cross-sectional design, 20 asthmatic athletes (10 swimmers and 10 cross-country skiers), 19 athletes without asthma (10 swimmers and 9 cross-country skiers), and 24 healt
Non-small cell lung cancer is the most common type of lung cancer. Both environmental and genetic risk factors contribute to lung carcinogenesis. We conducted a genome-wide interaction analysis between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and smoking status (never- versus ever-smokers) in a European-descent population. We adopted a two-step analysis strategy in the discovery stage: we first cond
INTRODUCTION: Preeclampsia (PE) is an important cause of fetal and maternal morbidity and mortality. It is considered a two-stage disease, the first stage characterized by a defect placentation and the second stage by maternal manifestations. Details of the patho-physiology behind the transition from stage one to stage two remain unclear.OBJECTIVE: Was to study first trimester placental gene expre
Abstract Objective. Prostate cancer antigen 3 in urine (uPCA3) has been shown to perform better than total prostate-specific antigen in serum (tPSA) to predict prostate cancer (PCa) detection. The aim of this study was to validate the diagnostic precision of uPCA3 in a mixed set of patients with no previous history of PCa, including patients with previous negative biopsies. Material and methods. T
Popular Abstract in Swedish Datorgenererade bilder är en viktig del av underhållningsindustrin, som bland annat innefattar spel- och filmindustrin. För att kunna skapa avancerade specialeffekter i filmer samt stora och detaljerade spelvärldar krävs datorprogram som utnyttjar beräkningskraften i dagens datorer på ett effektivt sätt. Bättre och snabbare datorprogram leder ofta till nya användaruppleComputer generated imagery is vital to the entertainment industry in the production of games and films, for example. It is also increasingly important for visualization in design, architecture, engineering, and medicine, to name a few. Improvements to rendering techniques come from a combination of improved algorithms and more powerful hardware. Typically, hardware developments introduce new chall
Monitoring of condylomas is an early evidence of population effectiveness of human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination programs. If reporting could include HPV typing, the contribution by vaccine HPV types to condyloma burden could be monitored.
BACKGROUND: Breast cancer detected by screening has an unexplained prognostic advantage beyond stage shift compared with cancers detected clinically. The aim was to investigate biological factors in invasive breast cancer, with reference to mode of detection and rate of death from breast cancer. METHODS: Histology, oestrogen receptor α and β, progesterone receptor, human epidermal growth factor
The Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) was developed as an extension of the WOMAC Osteoarthritis Index with the purpose of evaluating short-term and long-term symptoms and function in subjects with knee injury and osteoarthritis. The KOOS holds five separately scored subscales: Pain, other Symptoms, Function in daily living (ADL), Function in Sport and Recreation (Sport/Rec), and
