Objectives The aim was to study the development of radiographic knee osteoarthritis (RKOA) in individuals with knee pain over 2 years, and the associations between radiographic changes and baseline variables. Design Longitudinal cohort study. Participants and setting This study is part of the Halland Osteoarthritis cohort. The included 178 individuals, aged 30-67, had knee pain, without cruciate l

Outdoor climate has considerable impact on the indoor climate and it is therefore important to adapt the buildings to the climate. This thesis shows how to improve indoor climate in a climate which it is hot, dry in the summer and cold in the winter. My investigative unit is a middle class house in the town Baalbek in Lebanon and the purpose of the study is to come up with proposals on possible so
PCDD/Fs and dl-PCBs, or more commonly referred to as dioxin and dioxin like substances are compounds present in our surrounding environment. As some congeners of these have been shown to be toxic, they are regulated under the Stockholm Convention. As dioxins are persistent in biota and have lipophilic properties they are seen accumulating in lipid rich fish in the Baltic, one of the affected speci
Explaining how social regulations of inclusion among raid-oriented guilds in World of Warcraft are regulated by code was the approach chosen for this thesis, as an attempt to take on the perspective of consensus. By looking for consensus rather than conflict, it was possible to detect possible indicators for social exclusion in the code of the in- game environment. Data on social norms was collec
Abstract Background: As the population ageing increases, the dramatic rise in cognitive disorders such as mild cognitive impairment and dementia has become a public health priority. Mobile health technology is a unique non-pharmacological intervention for dementia and cognitive disorders. A digital platform (Support Monitoring and Reminder for Mild Dementia: SMART4MD) is created for persons with m
BACKGROUND: The long-term course of coronary atherosclerosis has not been studied in large nationwide cohorts. Understanding the natural history of coronary atherosclerosis could help identify patients at risk for future coronary events. METHODS AND RESULTS: All coronary artery segments with <50% luminal stenosis in patients with a first-time coronary angio-gram between 1989 and 2017 were identifi
Background. The urokinase plasminogen activator (uPA) system is involved in tissue remodelling processes and is up-regulated in many types of malignancies. We investigated whether serum levels of different forms of soluble uPA receptor (suPAR) are associated with survival and in particular with prostate cancer and cardiovascular disease mortality. Methods. Using time-resolved fluorescence immunoas
Background: Wasting is a common complication of kidney failure that leads to weight loss and poor outcomes. Recent experimental data identified parathyroid hormone (PTH) as a driver of adipose tissue browning and wasting, but little is known about the relations among secondary hyperparathyroidism, weight loss, and risk of mortality in dialysis patients. Methods: We included 42,319 chronic in-centr
AIMS/HYPOTHESIS: Accurate prediction of disease progression in individuals with pre-symptomatic type 1 diabetes has potential to prevent ketoacidosis and accelerate development of disease-modifying therapies. Current tools for predicting risk require multiple blood samples taken during an OGTT. Our aim was to develop and validate a simpler tool based on a single blood draw.METHODS: Models to predi
The EU Biodiversity strategy aims to plant 3 billion trees by 2030, in order to improve ecosystem restoration and biodiversity. Here, we compute the land area that would be required to support this number of newly planted trees by taking account of different tree species and planting regimes across the EU member states. We find that 3 billion trees would require a total land area of between 0.81 a
