Postmenopausal overweight women have an increased risk of breast cancer. The link between obesity and breast cancer could be mediated through hyperinsulinemia. Insulin and insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) stimulate mammary cell proliferation in vitro, and cell proliferation is directly linked to the risk of breast cancer. Our objective was to investigate the relationship between breast cancer
BACKGROUND: Obesity has, in a number of studies, been found to correlate to disability and mortality, primarily due to diseases of the circulatory and musculoskeletal systems. In addition, an excess mortality among underweight subjects has been observed in previous studies. METHODS: Five complete birth-year cohorts (1926-1930) of male residents in Malmo (n = 7697) were invited to the survey at the
huber-06 On the theory of presentation STEFAN HUBER (LUND UNIVERSITY ) Abstract The aim of the paper is to introduce a new information-structural category presentation and to argue for its relevance and independence from other information-structural layers. It is shown that a successful presentation consists of two steps, namely the import of a new discourse participant and its establishing (proce

Context Advanced, life-limiting illnesses are likely to have a predictable functional decline through a terminal phase to death, but some patients may also die suddenly. To date, empirical evidence characterizing “sudden death” in hospice/palliative care is lacking. Objectives The aim of this study was to determine prevalence and clinicodemographic predictors of sudden death in hospice/palliative
Background: Although recent population-based studies suggest a U-shaped relationship between serum IGF-I concentration and all-cause mortality, the distribution of death causes underlying this association remains unclear. We hypothesized that high IGF-I levels associate with increased cancer mortality, whereas low IGF-I levels associate with increased cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality. Metho
I became acquainted with the music of Ramon Lazkano in 2001 through his guitar pieces. I was immediately fascinated with his ideas and his sound palette; somehow, I associated his music to a range of color between white and gray. His is a musical language where harmonics work as shadows and offer glimpses of a music that lives within a very personal and unique instrumental treatment.Later, togethe
Background: Body dysmorphic disorder (BDD) is thought to be associated with considerable suicide risk. This nationwide cohort study quantified the risks of intentional self-harm—including nonsuicidal self-injuries and suicide attempts—and death by suicide in BDD. Methods: Individuals with a validated ICD-10 diagnosis of BDD in the Swedish National Patient Register, registered between January 1, 19
Environmental communication is essential for success in the efforts to prevent or adapt to climate change. This is important at all levels but municipalities often seem to fail at this task. Therefore the aim of this study is to find out what good environmental communication means, what factors affects the quality and whether it is the municipalities or the residents that are lacking in commitment
"Zalmoxis" is a dramatic poem in which each character autonomously structures his own discursive lyric, expressing thus a variety of concepts over the spiritual foundation of the Dacians. The charm of each nuance in part relates in the last instance, the mode in which the author understands the proper structure of the actual dramatic perspective above the revolt of our non-Latin foundation. The ne
OBJECTIVE: To assess the risk of over-diagnosing and over-treating prostate cancer if population-based screening with serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) is instituted. PATIENTS AND METHODS: From a serum bank stored in 1980, PSA was analysed in 658 men with no previously known prostate cancer from a well-defined cohort from Goteborg, Sweden (men born in 1913); the incidence of clinical prostate
Context:Patients with hypopituitarism have an increased standardized mortality rate. The basis for this has not been fully clarified.Objective:To investigate in detail the cause of death in a large cohort of patients with hypopituitarism subjected to long-term follow-up.Design and Methods:All-cause and cause-specific mortality in 1286 Swedish patients with hypopituitarism prospectively monitored i
This is a qualitative content analysis of discussions that take place on what I call the backyard of democracy. I examine comment boxes on Facebook discussing the Swedish daily news paper Dagens Nyheters alleged obscuration of sexual harassments that took place during the festival We Are Sthlm in 2015. Using Wodaks categorization of the radical right populist discourse in Europe, I find that the c
The thesis analyzes how two NGOs working with female sex workers in India, Purnata and National Network for Sex workers, define and construct the problems they are trying to solve by using Carol Bacchi’s ‘What’s the problem represented to be?’ approach on discourse analysis. By analyzing written material from both of the NGOs, posts from their Facebook pages, and an interview with an employee from
The Malmö Offspring Study started on March 1st, 2013 and aims to map family patterns behind major diseases on the basis of gene-environment interaction [5-7]. Finding patterns to different chronic diseases It is well known that a number of large chronic disease groups tend to congregate within certain families, but the reason for this is unknown. However, one knows that the purely genetic componen
